Brentwood - Hunter Drohojowska-Philp discusses and signs "Rebels in Paradise"
Diesel, A Bookstore in Brentwood welcomes author and art historian Hunter Drohojowska-Philp to the store to discuss and sign Rebels in Paradise on Sunday, September 11th at 3pm.
Rebels in Paradise is a vibrant, kaleidoscopic account of the LA art scene in the 1960s. "Drohojowska-Philp has done massive research to compile this generous account of a movement and its movers—not just the artists (and their biographies) but many of the personalities and celebrities and hangers-on who enjoyed the decade-long whirlpool.... Comprehensive, educative and entertaining for eye, mind, imagination and libido." - Kirkus
Hunter Drohojowska-Philp is the author of Full Bloom, considered by many to be the definitive biography of Georgia O'Keefe. She is a regular contributor to Art News magazine and the Los Angeles Times, and has written for Art in America, Artforum and Art Net. She lives in Los Angeles.

This surgical steel jewelry piece is carefully crafted and perfectly polished. It consists of the main ring and a smaller ring attached on the top. Story of O ring is also known as the "slave ring" and it's one of the symbols of the BDSM community. There is no universal way to wear Story of O ring. One way to wear it is on the left hand if you're dominant and right if you're submissive, but many people choose the opposite setup. Some people wear the ring only if they're submissive, while others like to order two rings: one for them and one for their partner. If this is the case for you, make sure to order two rings (the item is not sold in pairs). We offer Story of O rings in two sizes. The Small is 30 mm high and has 59 mm in diameter. The Large is 77 mm high and has 70 mm in diameter.

Since its inception in 1987, South by Southwest has grown from a 700-person local festival to the largest music festival of its kind. But why? Award-winning music supervisor and six-time SXSW attendee Andrew Kahn is back to share his insight on enjoying South By culture by shedding light on why the festival is such a phenomenon (validating your decision to travel south or exacerbating your FOMO, depending on who you are).
SXSW is a huge festival that keeps things intimate…
The best thing about SXSW is that it's spread throughout Austin, so fans can have a rare, intimate experience with bands that usually play stadiums. It's the opposite of mega-fests like Coachella or Governor's Island, where you and 50,000 other people end up clamoring to see a band that usually plays a 200-capacity venue.
As the fest has become increasingly popular, alternative venues have opened up — so you can see a band up close on a bridge, in a backyard, or in a vacant power plant.
...but it's ballooned in size since its inception in 1987…
...because music-lovers like me come back year after year.
SXSW is one of the few events where you see a genuine explosion of enthusiasm. It's pretty much a spring break paradise for music lovers. Whether you're there to "work" or as a fan, it feels like a massive vacation.
Of course, it's not all free beer and hot people…
To be fair, there are some downsides. The downtown neighborhood where most SXSW activities take place becomes the Times Square/Bourbon Street/Hollywood Boulevard of Austin. It's overcrowded with slow, drunk, confused tourists. There's definitely a good time to be had, but you'll have to navigate your way through a hellish parade of puking ex-frat boys to find it.
You should also prepare for a pretty bleak housing and transportation situation. If you can find a home base within two miles of the festival, the price may make NYC rents seem almost reasonable. Getting to and from any venue will require you to fight strangers over a taxi or hire a local to cart you around in a pedicab while he drinks a PBR and reminisces about his days volunteering in Guam. Luckily, you'll be spending as little time as possible in your Airbnb, most of which should be spent sleeping. So once you make your way to town, don't come back until you're ready to call it a night.
But there are ways to escape the madness.
Sometimes the action can be a little overwhelming, and you don't want to burn out halfway through the festival. If you need a break from the madness, I highly recommend Barton Springs. The enormous pool in the middle of a natural creek just outside of downtown is perfect for a rejuvenating mini-getaway. Another option I've relied on when I need a break from the SX scene is renting a bike and doing a little exploring.
At the end of the day, remember that you're there to have fun. Here are some dos and don'ts to help:
Do venture outside of Downtown. It's the epicenter of the fest, but there's fun to be had throughout the city. Don't take too many photos at shows! Putting your fancy camera phone away and being in the moment is the best way to enjoy yourself and respect the people around you. Do eat lots of Tex-Mex for breakfast…and lunch…and definitely dinner. Juan In A Million is a good place to start. Don't bring your big-city attitude with you. Austin is a genuine and friendly place, and that spirit seeps into the fest. Don't spoil it! Indulge, engage, and enjoy yourself.
Next week, Andrew will check in from SXSW to share his music — and food! — discoveries.

Storage and Freshness
Sterntaler Bakery Stollen can last for a very long time if stored correctly. We do not use any preservatives when we bake, so it is even more amazing that our Stollen can stay fresh for at least 12 weeks. Stollen also freezes well for up to one month.
Generally, once opened, Stollen should be kept wrapped in plastic and out of direct sunlight. Store it somewhere where it is NO WARMER than room temperature (approx. 75 degrees Fahrenheit). Stollen should keep fresh for at least 12 weeks.
Top Ingredients
We use only the highest quality select ingredients to bake Stollen. We do not use any artificial preservatives or additives.
Sterntaler Bakery Stollen is made with the finest ingredients. We believe in baking with only the best ingredients – if you put the best things in, then you also get the best results – of course you have to be a very skilled German Master Baker to actually get the results!

Work advances, but not done, on ailing IHFC wall
Workers have made progress shoring up an unstable facade on part of the International Home Furnishings Center, though no date has been set on completing repairs that began more than two months ago.
Structural engineers found a problem with a wall that could cause it to collapse. Since late May, a section of Wrenn Street between Commerce Avenue and Green Drive downtown has been blocked to through traffic next to the area.
So far the repair project and closed section of Wrenn, which is in the heart of the High Point Market showroom district, hasn't disrupted trade show activity. Pre-Market will take place Sept. 15-16 — it's an industry gathering about a month before each furniture market where a smaller number of exhibitors and their customers do business.
The fall High Point Market officially takes place Oct. 18-23.
The goal of International Market Centers, which owns and operates the IHFC, is to have the work complete prior to the fall market. The project is expected to cost $4 million, the company says.
In the next two to three weeks, workers should stabilize the brick facade, said city Fire Marshal Chris Weir.
In essence, work crews are stabilizing the facade so the bricks then can be safely removed to determine what has caused the underlying problem with the wall.
"What had happened is the brick facade itself to the building had some areas where it had actually kind of separated from the building a little bit. So they had concerns as to the stability of that wall," Weir told The High Point Enterprise.
The brick facade is being stabilized before it's removed for the safety of workers, Weir said.
"This is really out of an overabundance of caution because they didn't want to start the demolition and have a large part of the brick separate from the building potentially," the he said.
After the facade is removed, workers will evaluate the wall underneath the bricks, Weir said. Completing the project will hinge on the condition of the underlying wall.
Last month, International Market Centers received a demolition and asbestos removal permit from the city for the project. International Market Centers is progressing with the work, said Chief Executive Officer Robert Maricich.
"Though it is a massive undertaking, there were no 'surprises' as we begin removing brick," Maricich said.

Currently we backup data to shares on Buffalo TeraStation NAS. We're looking to buy an additional Buffalo TeraStation and I noticed that they now do one that supports iSCSI.
We're running Windows 2003. To backup we would install the MS iSCSI initiator on the Windows server and then connect and mount the TeraStation as a drive so that it shows up in Disk Management. The drive would then be partitioned and formatted and could then be used to backup to.
What happens if the Windows server has a hardware failure? Would it be possible to mount the iSCSI drive on another machine to retrieve the data? I've googled this, but can't seem to find an answer.
Many thanks for taking the time to read and reply.

Announcing the 2015 Santa Barbara Mission Conference Video Contest
Radical Compassion!
The entries are in! View them here.
Do you know a ministry that is living with radical compassion in order to alleviate poverty, share the gospel, or that confront cultures of violence through ministries of reconciliation?
This contest is designed to help highlight those ministries/projects that practice radical compassion in those three areas (poverty, evangelism, reconciliation). We will have one winner in each category. The videos are meant to inspire missional living and celebrate the work God is doing through faithful churches and Christian fellowship throughout the world.
The videos will be judged on their creativity in answering the following questions:
- How does your project/ministry empower people to address problems of poverty in a particular area?
- What impact does your project/ministry have on addressing the root causes of poverty in your area?
- How has your project/ministry brought hope to a local community?
- How does your project/ministry empower people to share the gospel in a local community?
- How has the gospel helped to fulfill Christ's commission to "go and make disciples?"
- How have lives been changed in the community you serve because the gospel has been shared with others?
Violence through Reconciliation
- How does your project/ ministry empower the work of reconciliation in your local community?
- What are the root causes of violence in your community?
- How have lives been changed as a result of the work of reconciliation?
What you need to know:
2-4 minutes. Videos over four minutes will not be considered (no exceptions). The video can be either a slide show set to music or a movie-type video that tells the story of your mission project or outreach event.
Videos submitted to First Presbyterian Church of Santa Barbara by November 15th. Or mail a copy of your video to First Presbyterian Church at 21 E. Constance Ave., Santa Barbara, CA 93105. Please indicate "Mission Conference" as you deliver your video.
Videos will be posted on the Santa Barbara Mission Conference Facebook page beginning November 15, 2014
The videos will be judged by the Santa Barbara Mission Conference Advisory team. In addition to the criteria stated above, the judges will also take into consideration the number of "likes" the videos receive on contest page.
The top video in each category will be featured at the Santa Barbara Mission Conference in 2015 in addition to receiving a cash prize of $500 to be used towards the mission/outreach project featured in the video. Prizes will be awarded at the Santa Barbara Mission Conference on January 23-24, 2015.

Antwerp, Belgium
Like many of the dresses i make for the summer, this one is based on the Coffee date dress pattern. The skirt is different(cut a big square, ruffle it up, and sew it onto the top).
I was supposed to use the fabric for a costume for carnaval. But i love the print and the colours of the fabric, i had to use it for a summerdress.
The zipper(white zipper in the back)is around 55 cm long.
I added some decorative pearls in the front, and a white underlayer for the skirt.

|Iodine deficiency
|Classification and external resources
Iodine is an essential trace element; the thyroid hormones thyroxine and triiodothyronine contain iodine. In areas where there is little iodine in the diet—typically remote inland areas where no marine foods are eaten—iodine deficiency gives rise to goiter (so-called endemic goiter), as well as cretinism, which results in developmental delays and other health problems.
While reporting recent progress, The Lancet noted, "According to World Health Organization, in 2007, nearly 2 billion individuals had insufficient iodine intake, a third being of school age. ... Thus iodine deficiency, as the single greatest preventable cause of mental retardation, is an important public-health problem."[1]
In some such areas, this is now combated by the addition of small amounts of iodine to table salt in form of sodium iodide, sodium iodate, potassium iodide, and/or potassium iodate—this product is known as iodized salt. Iodine compounds have also been added to other foodstuffs, such as flour, water and milk in areas of deficiency.[2] Seafood is also a well known source of iodine.[3] Thus, iodine deficiency is more common in mountainous regions of the world where food is grown in iodine-poor soil.
A low amount of thyroxine (one of the two thyroid hormones) in the blood, due to lack of dietary iodine to make it, gives rise to high levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), which stimulates the thyroid gland to increase many biochemical processes; the cellular growth and proliferation can result in the characteristic swelling or hyperplasia of the thyroid gland, or goiter. In mild iodine deficiency, levels of triiodiothyronine (T3) may be elevated in the presence of low levels of levothyroxine, as the body converts more of the levothyroxine to triiodothyronine as a compensation. Some such patients may have a goiter, without an elevated TSH. The introduction of iodized salt since the early 1900s has eliminated this condition in many affluent countries; however, in Australia, New Zealand, and several European countries, iodine deficiency is a significant public health problem.[4] It is more common in third-world nations. Public health initiatives to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease have resulted in lower discretionary salt use at the table. Additionally, there is a trend towards consuming more processed foods in western countries.[citation needed] The noniodized salt used in these foods means that people are less likely to obtain iodine from adding salt during cooking.
Goiter is said to be endemic when the prevalence in a population is > 5%, and in most cases goiter can be treated with iodine supplementation. If goiter is untreated for around five years, however, iodine supplementation or thyroxine treatment may not reduce the size of the thyroid gland because the thyroid is permanently damaged.
Iodine deficiency is one of the leading causes of preventable mental handicaps worldwide, producing typical reductions in IQ of 10 to 15 IQ points. It has been speculated that deficiency of iodine and other micronutrients may be a possible factor in observed differences in IQ between ethnic groups: see race and intelligence for a further discussion of this controversial issue.
Cretinism is a condition associated with iodine deficiency and goiter, commonly characterised by mental deficiency, deaf-mutism, squint, disorders of stance and gait, stunted growth and hypothyroidism. Paracelsus was the first to point out the relation between goitrous parents and mentally retarded children.[5]
As a result of restricted diet, isolation, intermarriage, etc., as well as low iodine content in their food, children often had peculiar stunted bodies and retarded mental faculties, a condition later known to be associated with thyroid deficiency. Diderot, in his 1754 Encyclopédie, described these patients as "crétins". In French, the term "crétin des Alpes" also became current, since the condition was observed in remote valleys of the Alps in particular. The word cretin appeared in English in 1779.
In areas where there is little iodine in the diet, typically remote inland areas and semi-arid equatorial climates where no marine foods are eaten, iodine deficiency gives rise to hypothyroidism, symptoms of which are extreme fatigue, goiter, mental slowing, depression, weight gain, and low basal body temperatures.[6]
Iodine deficiency is the leading cause of preventable mental retardation, a result which occurs primarily when babies or small children are rendered hypothyroidic by a lack of the element. The addition of iodine to table salt has largely eliminated this problem in the wealthier nations, but as of March 2006, iodine deficiency remained a serious public health problem in the developing world.[7] Iodine deficiency is also a problem in certain areas of Europe. In Germany it has been estimated to cause a billion dollars in health care costs per year.[8]
Iodine may also help prevent diseases of the oral and salivary glands.[9]
Following is a list of potential risk factors that may lead to iodine deficiency:[10]
Iodine accounts for 65% of the molecular weight of T4 and 59% of the T3. 15–20 mg of iodine is concentrated in thyroid tissue and hormones, but 70% of the body's iodine is distributed in other tissues, including mammary glands, eyes, gastric mucosa, arterial walls, the cervix, and salivary glands. In the cells of these tissues, iodide enters directly by sodium-iodide symporter (NIS).
The diagnostic workup of a suspected iodine deficiency includes signs and symptoms as well as possible risk factors mentioned above. A 24-hour urine iodine collection is a useful medical test, as approximately 90% of ingested iodine is excreted in the urine. If a 24-hour urine collection is not practical, a random urine iodine-to-creatinine ratio can alternatively be used.[11]
Iodine deficiency is treated by ingestion of iodine salts, such as found in food supplements. Mild cases may be treated by using iodized salt in daily food consumption, or drinking more milk, or eating egg yolks, and saltwater fish. For a salt and/or animal product restricted diet, sea vegetables (kelp, hijiki, dulse, nori (found in sushi)) may be incorporated regularly into a diet as a good source of iodine.[11]
The recommended daily intake of iodine for adult women is 150–300 µg for maintenance of normal thyroid function; for men it is somewhat less at 150 µg.[11]
Iodine deficiency resulting in goiter occurs 187 million people globally as of 2010 (2.7% of the population).[13] Certain areas of the world, due to natural deficiency and unavailability of iodine, are severely affected by iodine deficiency, which affects approximately two billion people worldwide. It is particularly common in the Western Pacific, South-East Asia and Africa. Among other nations affected by iodine deficiency, China and Kazakhstan have begun taking action, while Russia has not. Successful campaigns for the adoption of the use of iodized salt require education of salt producers and sellers and a communication campaign directed at the public. The cost of adding iodine to salt is negligible—"Only a few cents a ton."[14]
Iodine deficiency has largely been confined to the developing world for several generations, but reductions in salt consumption and changes in dairy processing practices eliminating the use of iodine-based disinfectants have led to increasing prevalence of the condition in Australia and New Zealand in recent years. A proposal to mandate the use of iodized salt in most commercial breadmaking was adopted there in October, 2009.[15] In a study of the United Kingdom published in 2011, almost 70% of test subjects were found to be iodine deficient.[16] The study's authors suggested an investigation regarding "evidence-based recommendations for iodine supplementation".[16]
It is well known that micronutrient deficiencies change the development of intelligence and iodine is no exception. Lacking in iodine during human development causes a fall, in average, of 12 IQ points in China.[17]
Scientists James Feyrer, Dimitra Politi, and David N. Weil have found in the U.S. that the proliferation of iodized salt increased IQ by 15 points in some areas. Journalist Max Nisen has stated that, with this type of salt becoming popular, that "the aggregate effect has been extremely positive."[18]
With iodine supplementation, goiters caused by iodine deficiency decrease in size in very young children and pregnant women. Generally, however, long-standing goiters caused by iodine deficiency respond with only small amounts of shrinkage after iodine supplementation, and patients are at risk for developing hyperthyroidism.[11] Following the adaption of iodised salt in the United States in 1924 there was a gradual increase in average intelligence of 1 standard deviation, 15 points in iodine-deficient areas, 3.5 points nationally, but also an increase in deaths of older people in iodine-deficient areas due to hyperthyroidism.[19]

How Often Do You and DH go Out on a Date ?
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 03-19-2012 - 9:44am
|Mon, 03-19-2012 - 3:06pm
Every night's a date for us! LOL j/k
Since we don't have kids, we don't have to consciously plan our date nights like some couples. We typically go out for dinner once a week during the week and occasionally on the weekend to celebrate a special occasion.
|Mon, 03-19-2012 - 3:51pm
LOL RoseAnn,
Kind of nice that way
Love to hear you go out once a week for dinner .. what a nice way to break up the week too I imagine.
Celebrating those special occasions is always a great excuse as well :)
|Tue, 03-20-2012 - 7:39am
I voted "It Depends..." Because DH is a full-time student, and does not receive financial aid right now, our budget is very tight. We rarely have money to go out and do things, but when we do, we generally go out to breakfast or lunch. To celebrate special occasions, we cook a nice meal at home. We do have take-out pizza every Friday night, which we consider a date night, since it has become a tradition.
|Tue, 03-20-2012 - 8:59am
As is I bet that pizza too.
I think a *date* doesn't have to be going out per se .. just doing something together.
Sounds like you & DH do just that :)
|Wed, 03-21-2012 - 10:55pm
But getting out is a lot less bc of me. I tend to use up valuable babysitting time playing hockey...but we still get out a least once month. Sometimes more. My mother will be in town for easter so we may get 2 dates in the 4 days she is here...
|Wed, 03-21-2012 - 11:04pm
Sometimes those at home dates are better than the going out ones, LOL
That will be nice though when your Mom is there & you can go out for one too :)
|Thu, 03-22-2012 - 8:39am
DH and I are both insanely busy (with kids and work) so we're lucky to get out once a month for a date.
|Thu, 03-22-2012 - 11:55am
For now that is good at least once a month :)

Meepo the Geomancer is a melee agility hero who is notorious for being one of the hardest heroes in the game to play effectively due to his heavy reliance on micromanagement. Meepo's defining ultimate, Divided We Stand, allows Meepo to create up to four additional clones of himself. The clones cannot use any items besides the boots that the main Meepo himself wears, but each clone comes with its own individual spells and spell cooldowns. As well, they all gain experience and gold additively with the original Meepo. This means that a well-played Meepo can gain experience faster than any other hero, capable of reaching maximum level extremely early into the game and overpowering his unsuspecting opponents; however, the death of any Meepo, including the clones, spells death for all Meepos. With Earthbind, enough Meepos can permanently root someone in place while the clone army pummels them. Poof allows any Meepo to globally teleport to any other Meepo, as well as deal significant area of effect damage when cast enough times. Geostrike is Meepo's passive, which causes his attacks to slow and deal damage over time, stacking with each clone. With this skill set, Meepo can be everywhere on the map at once, and can group up on an unsuspecting victim in a moment's notice. Meepo redefines the power of numbers and is played mostly as a carry.
Unlike most other heroes in Dota 2, Meepo has a base 35% magic resistance instead of 25%, causing Meepo to take 13.33% less magic damage than other heroes.
Recommended items[edit]
Early Game:
Core Items:
- Meepo's gold is best spent on items which benefit all Meepos. This means aura items and attributes. Be advised however, that aura items can be bought by your allies and you will benefit from them just as well, so it's usually better idea to buy attribute-enhancers (For example, Ethereal Blade will give you so much more than Assault Cuirass in terms of damage and attack speed while giving benefit of intelligence and strength as well as ranged nuke which also amplifies Poof damage) and utility items like Blink Dagger or Scythe of Vyse, which can be very useful for ganking.
- Meepo has huge damage potential in the mid-game. Four successful Poofs in the middle of a team fight equates to over 1,000 AoE damage. Especially in the 10-25 minute mark when Meepo can really kick into gear, this is well over half the HP pool of most heroes, and may in fact just one-shot squishier heroes. Similarly, four (five with Aghanim's) Meepos hitting a single target provides nearly unparalleled DPS (especially combined with Geostrike). Unlike other carries, he is not reliant on DPS items to reach this damage potential.
- With a measly 1.6 Strength gain, clones are very squishy targets. However, with his ability to farm several points at the same time gives him the potential to farm XP very quickly, giving him a higher level than others. This will almost neutralize the low-str-per-lvl gain problem. Also with items that gain strength/agility meepo will be really hard to kill.
- Meepo can level up much, much faster than other heroes, thanks to his clones; each clone counts as a separate hero for experience mechanics. This means you can get experience from two lanes, or lane and jungle experience, the same time. It also means you get a more significant chunk of experience for hero kills in team fights. If you are behind in levels, make sure to farm as much as you can (even if it means farming on the opposing team's jungle) to catch up to your opponents. One or two Meepos can farm in the lanes, while the rest can farm the jungle. Three clones can easily take out the whole jungle in less than a minute. This accelerated farm and experience is what gives Meepo his midgame dominance.
- In order to maximize the effectiveness of his clones, don't always group them up; you can split them up (preferably in two groups). In ganks, this can mean that one group of Meepos can initiate a fight, while the other can wait and ambush. Also, splitting them up to groups can make Poof an effective escape mechanism, so long as your secondary group is safe from harm.
- Keep in mind that casting Earthbind has a delay in deploying, so predict your target's path and throw accordingly. Earthbind's area-of-effect ensnare can be deadly to multiple heroes if used effectively. Also, Earthbind stops channeling abilities (including Town Portal Scrolls and Boots of Travel) and prevents invisibility during its duration. Earthbind is also very effective for scaring opponents - even if they have the upper hand, two or three consecutive Earthbinds on enemy heroes (even without any followup) is enough to scare many people into turning around.
- Meepo has great split-pushing power. His clones can quickly take down a tower while the opposing team is engaged in a team fight. This works especially well when you see your opponents grouping up for a push - send your clones into an uncontested lane and push it. When the team fight begins, you can Poof all of them in (alternatively your counterpushing may just force them to back off). If the enemy engages on your clones, you can Poof them back to the main Meepo.
- A large part of playing a good Meepo is effectively and quickly controlling all the clones. To this end, finding a good set of control groups and item/ability hotkeys can greatly improve gameplay. Ingraining various muscle memory patterns can help a lot to, say, select a dying Meepo and move him to safety in the middle of battle.
- Meepo is vulnerable to heroes who can single out and kill one of his clones or do AOE damage to all of them. In this aspect Meepo players should especially be wary of Vengeful Spirit's Nether Swap, Kunkka's X Marks The Spot, Faceless Void's Chronosphere, Warlock's Fatal Bonds and Chaotic Offering Combo, Tidehunter's Ravage and Lich's Chain Frost among others.
- After level 3, you can stack jungle camps with the clone Meepo and then double poof them later for a good source of gold and xp.
- Buying Boots of travel on Meepo allows him to split push similar to Tinker or Nature's Prophet, as each Meepo has a different cooldown on his boots. This allows for up to a Teleport every ten seconds. Poof is his equivalent of "March Of The Machines"/"Summon Treants". At a six second cooldown, three poofs will take out a whole creep wave.
- Several of Meepo's lines reference the Scout from Team Fortress 2, another title by Valve.
- Meepo's response to meeting Windranger references Joey Tribbiani's catchphrase from the television sitcom Friends.
- Meepo is named after the first kobold players meet in The Sunless Citadel Dungeons and Dragons 3.0 adventure.

Looks like peyote season came early fo Inshai.
The trillion dollar coin controversy demonstrates some of the absurdity of the debt ceiling imbroglio. This article doesn't convince me that issuance of the platinum piece is as rediculous as the debate.
Lou Housel
Lalalala. It's the jobs stupid. To makes the jobs you needs the demand. Where is the demand to come from?. Lalalala.
not at all - nothing illegal - just a big European banks with a very clever derivatives team.
Better yet, just mint "4" trillion dollar coins a year and give every American and business a tax holiday.
If deficit spending is so good for the economy, this should be GREAT.
Do you think anyone will notice if we borrow 3.5 trillion a year instead of 1.5?
I say go big or go home, or go broke that is. The Fed already buys 60% of our debt, I say to hell with that, just mint coins instead.....
no - just as a minion in the creative depths of finance, but with some very clever people !
There is no difference in striking coins versus the printing-press. Both are insane.
Obviously abolishing the debt ceiling is easier, until struck by reason it should be easy to turn an asset into debt. Perhaps the inflationary aspect could be 'sterilised' by issuing preference shares in a company whose asset is the coin. These shares pay a guaranteed dividend (smells like a coupon). Back the asset with a federal guarantee to repurchase the coin(s) at a specific future date (smells like capital repayment) and Robert's your father's brother (Bob's your uncle).
The main asset being 200 million taxpayers
Instead of minting more money (QE continues with tthe FEd's balance sheet already bloated to $3-4 trillion in government bonds) - or crashing the market when the Fed offloads - why not surrender bonds to Treasury and extinguish (say) $2 trillion of national debt and provide a further $1 trillion to balance the budget?
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is adding half a trillion dollars annually through 'created money' in the form of treasury securities, and a similar amount in mortgage backed securities that could become a debt swap of $1 trillion per annum - and despite the unorthodox approach, the stimulation has revived the US and global economies.
Rather than kicking the debt can further down the road or forcing the economy into recession by means of Euro-style budget austerity, bankers - including their central bank leaders - can better play their part in redirecting excess liquidity to repaying their own bail out by American taxpayers.
Let us acknowledge that George W. Bush has destroyed the largest economy on earth and that Obama has just inherited a big mess. Let us also acknowledge that Republicans are just making matters worse. The debt ceiling wasn't an issue until Obama became president, just like the super-delegates. During George W. Bush's era (as in other former presidents' eras), the debt ceiling was raised with no question although he added more debts than anyone in America's history. Obama has been adding debt to fix an already destroyed economy, otherwise the economy would have been "Greecy". Moreover, he has been working on a plan to reduce that debt but has been fiercely opposed by Republicans. And this opposition has been going on in every project that Obama plans for!!
George W. Bush was the worst US president ever, and this is a fact. Americans and others around the world are all suffering because of his bad policies (domestically and internationally). It is important that Americans and especially Republicans know and acknowledge this and start worrying about their country's future rather than just opposing Obama.
PS British or American definition of toss?
And as it represents 19 000 tonnes worth of platinum, much of which comes from the African bushveld mines, it could show 4-5 African elephants on the face (which weigh 3 - 6 tonnes each)
Au contraire, the system actually embodies a total lack of trust. What you are doing is confusing "trust" with "faith". People only rely on physical money as a medium of exchange and a storage of value precisely because they do not trust each others' credit, so they resort to using money. The distrust between individuals is offset by faith in the government as the eventual guarentor of the value of money, since tax is collected in nominal amounts, thus allowing money to be used in preference to credit.
Now, I'm no monetarist by a long shot, but while the concept of money isn't a Ponzi scheme per se, recent actions by the government should actually undermine people's faith in the currency. If the government over-commits to providing liquidity in the markets beyond what is needed to restore confidence and to allow assets to be properly priced, and the populace realise this, then a situation similar to the sub-prime crash (which is an actual Ponzi scheme) could theoretically occur, albeit with much larger repercussions since money is more fundamental to the economy.
However, I doubt very much of the populace will actually want to realise this truth about money, as the status quo benefits them quite well. Those whom the status quo doesn't benefit are in no position to learn about this, nor indeed do anything about it even if they could. However, the truth is nevertheless that the monetary system is based on a gentlemen's agreement to not think about the system too much.
Just think of it . . . 10,000 Solyndra's across the country . . . Kind of makes me weep . . .
Refuting superstition with suuperstition is not useful and neither is your rudeness.
The growing debt/gdp ratio along with the failure to seriously deal with the problem has caused the downgrade of the U.S.' credit rating and another downgrade is in the making. When the credit market determines/admits that the U.S. is not Trustworthy then inflation and high interest rates will result. Just like in Greece and Argentina (PLEASE read TE articles). The ability to print money does not solve the problem. That is the delusion.
This is exactly the kind of insane idea one would expect from Obama and his regime. It is not too unlike printing more worthless dollar bills, which is also insane. It appears that the U.S. is looking more like Greece and Argentina every day! Where is the alternative leadership in this country? How can the American voter be so dopey???
Like the article says, denying the ceiling extension is itself crazy and so to counter one crazy move with another may not be a bad strategy. Kind of like fighting fire with fire.
Gold is actually trading at a higher price than Platinum. I wonder what's behind the choice of platinum over gold?
Politicians have always liked the idea that complicated legal and and economic constructions can make "something out of nothing". The surprising part is how popular this thinking has become in the financial community (it was the underlying concept behind the subprime debacle)
At its most fundamental level, money represents a "share" of the real productive and resource wealth of a country. Regardless of how you structure it, if you create more shares faster than the real wealth grows, then in very real terms the value of each share goes down.
The market's adjustment to this new value may not happen until enough people realize the problem (which is why it's done in complicated ways), but it always happens eventually. Unless this trillion dollar coin is spent in ways that guarantee America's real wealth increases by at least the same amount, it's just making the problem worse.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act but a habit.
One of the parable studies in positive psychology is an investigation reported some years ago by Phillip Brickman, Dan Coates, and Ronnie Janoff-Bulman (1978). These psychologists were then at Northwestern University, and the state of Illinois had just started to run a lottery. The researchers interviewed 22 state lottery winners, each of whom had received at least $50,000 during the past year and some as much as $1,000,000. The winners were asked to rate their past, present and future (expected) happiness on scales from 0 = not at all happy to 5 = very happy, as well as the pleasure they took in mundane activities like reading a magazine, again on 0-5 scales. Brickman and his colleagues also interviewed a group of 58 individuals who had not won the lottery but lived in the same neighborhoods as the winners. The results showed that lottery winners were scarcely more happy than the comparison research participants in terms of their present happiness (4.00 versus 3.82) and future happiness (4.20 versus 4.14). And winners found less pleasure in everyday activities than nonwinners (3.33 versus 3.82).
