Market Wrap: Dow, S&P 500 Inch Lower After Fed Minutes
Stocks ended flat Wednesday as minutes from April's Federal Reserve meeting did little to change expectations of when the Fed may raise interest rates.
Stocks ended flat Wednesday as minutes from April's Federal Reserve meeting did little to change expectations of when the Fed may raise interest rates.
U.S. stocks fell Friday, as concerns over regulations in China, Greece's debt negotiations and disappointing earnings weighed on investor sentiment.
The Dow and S&P 500 ended lower Monday, as lower oil prices dragged down energy shares, while the Nasdaq ended higher, helped by gains in Apple shares.
Wall Street rallies Friday after Greece and eurozone finance ministers reach a deal to extend heavily indebted Greece's financial rescue by four months.
The Dow and S&P 500 slid Thursday following drops in energy shares and a disappointing outlook from Walmart, while the Nasdaq hit another 15-year high.
Stocks ended nearly flat Wednesday, with word that Fed officials last month expressed concern about raising interest rates too soon limiting the decline.
The S&P 500 ended above 2,100 at another record high Tuesday as optimism grew that a debt deal would be reached with Greece and as bond prices sold off.
The S&P 500 ended at a record high on Friday as energy shares gained with oil prices, while the Nasdaq hit a 15-year high, and the Dow topped 18,000.
U.S. stocks end Tuesday higher on hopes that Greek debt talks could result in a deal that stabilizes Europe, but a drop in oil prices limited the advance.
Concerns about the world economy helped tug U.S. stocks lower on Monday as worries mount over Greece's standoff with its creditors.
Stocks fell Friday as a rosy jobs report supported expectations of a rise in interest rates, while more worries about Greece's debt added to a bearish tone.
Concerns that European finance ministers will again fail to reach an agreement on handing over more bailout cash to Greece weighed on markets Monday. In addition, an election in Spain's Catalonia region that saw separatists gain ground is also adding to global investor worries.
European policymakers are working on "last chance" options to bring Greece's debts down and keep it in the euro zone, with the ECB and national central banks looking at taking significant losses on the value of their bond holdings, officials said.
With the woes of Greece, Spain and Italy still punishing the euro, a lot of Europeans are shifting assets into Bitcoins, a freely convertible currency that's free of government interference. Could the eurozone crisis bring this digital money into the mainstream?
Oil prices fell below $95 a barrel Monday in Asia amid investor concern that China's economy, the world's second-largest, is slowing faster than previously expected.
Rising Spanish bond yields: If you've heard those four words in the news, you may not have paid much attention. But they foretell a crisis that could swamp America's fragile economic recovery.
On Friday, Greece reached a deal to "restructure" its national debt downward by about $133 billion. That's the biggest sovereign restructuring in world history. But don't worry. According to Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, it's no big deal for the U.S.
Greece isn't going to rebound anytime soon, and Europe about to rapidly propel itself out of its mild recession either. But obsession with the Mediterranean's economic basket case has caused many investors to miss strong overseas gains. Here are three companies leading the charge.
By most indications, the U.S. economy is recovering fairly well for the time being. But across the Pond in Europe, another story is unfolding that has the stock market worried -- and it should have your attention, too.
There's never a dull moment on Wall Street, especially now when holiday shopping is under way. Let's go over some of the items that will help shape the week that lies ahead.
At Thanksgiving, we remember the year's blessings and declare hope for the future. But if you're having a hard time swallowing that this year, we offer this recipe for cooking up 2011's most egregious financial news stories. Bon appetite!
The Atlantic Ocean is wide, but maybe not wide enough. On Thursday, markets had a mixed reaction to the deepening economic crisis in Europe. Some sources reported that the European Central Bank would step in. But in the U.S., small business owners are growing nervous.
Many European nations have deficits that make the U.S. look thrifty, and over a year after their problems came to light, they're still holding the worldwide recovery back. But because they share the euro, normal solutions aren't available, which means the EU must bite the bullet and accept an orderly default, or watch matters spiral downward.
Tiny Slovakia looked set on Tuesday to reject the expanded eurozone bailout upon which global investors were pinning their hopes -- and at this moment, the Slovak Parliament could veto the Continent's plan for economic salvation. How did it it come to this, and what could happen next?
American household incomes have fallen more since the recession ended than they fell during it, a new study reveals; EU leaders say they have a plan to solve the sovereign debt crisis; and Netflix has declared its big Qwikster plan dead on arrival.
More than 70 U.S. banks have failed this year, according to the FDIC. And one DailyFinance reader wants to know how safe is the money in our bank accounts? Laura Rowley responds.
As the eurozone sovereign debt crisis continues, focus is shifting to Italy as the next potential victim. But for worries closer to home, consider this: $37 billion in U.S. government benefits designed to help people through the downturn will expire by the end of 2011, leaving a hole twice that size in the economy.
Portugal's economic health is at risk of collapse after Moody's cut its rating of the country's debt to junk status. Also at risk of collapse: The case against former IMF head Dominique Strauss-Kahn after The New York Post reported that his accuser was working two jobs -- as a maid and a prostitute.
Is the American recovery fast or slow? Depends on who you ask. The Wall Street Journal sees corporate America merrily rolling along while Main Street suffers. The New York Times warns that Wall Street is about to feel the pinch too. But nobody is all that optimistic about Greece today.
Greece is in debt, in trouble, and its people are rebelling against austerity measures. But it's not without resources: What could the government in Athens get if it leased the Parthenon? Or naming rights to the Acropolis? Sacrilege, perhaps -- but when you really need the money...

Product description
By 1910, Leo Tolstoy, the world's most famous author, had become an almost religious figure, surrounded on his lavish estate by family and followers alike. Set in the tumultuous last year of the count's life, "The Last Station" centres on the battle for his soul waged by his wife and his leading disciple.Torn between his professed doctrine of poverty and chastity on the one hand and the reality of his enormous wealth, his thirteen children, and a life of hedonism on the other, Tolstoy makes a dramatic flight from his home. Too ill to continue beyond the tiny station of Astapovo, he believes he is dying alone, while outside over one hundred newspapermen are awaiting hourly reports on his condition.Narrated in six different voices, including Tolstoy's own from his diaries and literary works, "The Last Station" is a richly inventive novel that dances bewitchingly between fact and fiction.

If we offer Baez, Almora, vogelbach, welly castillo, and a low A RHP lottery ticket.......who that is interested in acquiring Hamels can beat that offer?
I wouldnt even think of extending him until next offseason, maybe even the season after. Might cost me a few extra million to wait, but at least i'd know for sure that this isnt a fluke season.
That's super silly.
I think we'll probably sign choo. There were rumors during the season that we would be interested in him, and we either missed or didnt try on Ellsbury. I would probably prefer Granderson over Choo...
But, dude, he guaranteed it.
Meh, that 2007 team had no business in the playoffs to begin with and the 2008 team ran face first into Manny Ramirez. Ted Lilly was the man, I'm in favor of a statue out front of Wrigley depicting...
Well of course you can. You just can't do so and then continue to be taken seriously.
This is the dumbest post in the history of dumb posts.
He certainly went about it a way. I don't know if I'd call it the right way.
Sign Choo
Re-sign Navarro
Sign Zobrist
Sign Matt Garza
Sign/trade for best available bullpen arm
Trade for best available middle infielder if Zobrist is unavailable or we miss on him
I thought Lincoln gave that to him :confused:
"I liked him when he only ripped on the Cardinals and their players. Now he targets the Cubs? Screw him! :O"
...I agree, though.
You could use shark as the centerpiece of a deal for Delgado and Teheren. The dude even said it would probably take more in his post.
Calm down, buddy.
And Starlin is a top major league shortstop signed to a long term, team friendly contract. Bauer would make a great piece in a Castro trade, but you'd need to get one more top prospect and 2 low-A...
Because there is nothing to be upset about. At all.
If we use Baez+ to land a young outfielder (we'll call him Upton), and at the trade deadline or next offseason use Almora+ to get a top end starter, and sign the other Upton as a FA, would Upton,...
Are you familiar with the fact that prospects can be traded?
That's a special kind of wrong right there.
One of the 609 career home runs he hit convinced me, I can't remember which one though.
Holy god, he's been with us for 8 years already?
Does it really hurt their trade value, though? They're both still very young going into next season, and you don't have to look any further than Rizzo to find an example of a player turning it around...
I can see him with a similar career to derrek lee. so, no.
Yeah, I knew that there had to be some sort of reason why contracts were never frontloaded. I still wish we could :/
Any word on what the money breakdown would be? I still think a frontloaded deal is an awesome idea. Pay him 15 million next year and then when we're competing and we need some room for our salary...

Aztecs football.
In the same sentence and on the front page.
Based on the first few weeks of the season, that's incredible. Based on the five-finger imprints they've left on our foreheads, that's unbelievable.
At this point in the year, we were supposed to be reading San Diego State's obit. Instead, we're waiting for the next chapter in its bio.
With a win over Fresno State tonight, the Aztecs would take sole possession of first place in the Mountain West.
No, you're not reading "The Onion."
"This is basically what our season is going to come down to," SDSU defensive lineman Cody Galea said.
This year's Aztecs are like Scooby-Doo and Shaggy. They've slipped on banana peels. They've embarrassed themselves thoroughly.
They've resembled nothing of super heroes, and yet, somehow they're in a position to save the day.
Is this not the team that lost by three touchdowns to an FCS team in its season opener? Is this not the squad that blew a 13-point fourth-quarter lead to Oregon State and then a 21-point fourth-quarter lead to Nevada? Is this not the group that needed three touchdowns in the final frame just to beat Air Force, which is 0-5 in conference?
The mantra in "Gladiator" was to win in the most entertaining way possible. The Aztecs (3-3, 2-0 in conference) have done it in the most aggravating way possible.
Fresno State can relate to that on some levels, though. The Bulldogs (6-0, 3-0) needed overtime to beat Rutgers 52-51 in their season opener and required a fourth-quarter comeback to best Boise State 41-40.
But behind Heisman-hopeful quarterback Derek Carr, Fresno State has also played bull to their opponents' china shop, outscoring its past two foes by a combined 71 points. SDSU's most lopsided win was by 10 points over New Mexico State — the team USA Today recently ranked as the third-worst in the country.
By all statistical indications, the Aztecs should provide about as much resistance to the Bulldogs as air. Carr averages 379 yards passing per game and SDSU can't defend the pass.
It's a little like trying to slow down a Ferrari with an autobahn, and SDSU coach Rocky Long is firmly aware of how active the scoreboard may be.
"They're one of the top three or four offenses in the country," Long said. "They score a lot of points and throw for a lot of yards. They have great athletes on both sides of the ball, and an outstanding quarterback that I'm sure is being touted for the Heisman Trophy."
Long said that he thinks the game will be a shootout, and he better hope it is, because if it isn't, it means Fresno State will be the only one scoring.
Long also ranted against the rule changes that inhibit defense in college football, and while that's a subject he's long been passionate about, it may have also been an advanced explanation for the Bulldogs' 50 points.
Still, while the Aztecs might get blown out, and while the Aztecs have no chance of blowing Fresno State out, don't be surprised if, by the end of the night, the home team stands victorious at Qualcomm Stadium.

Plot Summary:
"Quantum Quest: A Cassini Space Odyssey" is a sci-fi action film set in a scientifically accurate rendering of our solar system in 3-D stereoscopic. Visually, the film blends computer animation with the fantastic images captured during recent NASA space explorations including the international Cassini Huygens mission. The audience is taken on a simulated solar safari, exploring the outer planets and moons of our solar system such as Titan, a moon of Saturn that has rainfall, rivers, and giant lakes of natural gas. Directed by Dan St. Pierre and Dr. Harry Kloor, and written and conceived by Dr. Kloor, "Quantum Quest" tells the story of an epic battle between the forces of good and evil. The central character is Dave (Chris Pine), a photon who lives in the Sun, who with his people, is drawn into a galactic battle between THE CORE (William Shatner, the embodiment of the Sun, representing life and knowledge) and THE VOID (Mark Hamill, the embodiment of Nothingness, who wishes for total annihilation of the universe). "Quantum Quest: A Cassini Space Odyssey" was initiated by NASA's JPL as part of the outreach program of the Cassini Huygens space mission in 1996, as a project that would be entertaining as well as having underlying scientific educational goals. It is the first time that NASA's JPL has ever initiated a film project and the first time that famed Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the surface of the Moon, has participated in a feature film, lending his voice to one of the characters.

CHRIS MILAM Agriculture/Natural Resources Agent for Logan County
February 12, 2010
KDDC and Alltech are excited to announce this years "Winter Cover-Alls Dairy Series 2010." There will be 11 meetings held across the state, February 16- March 12. All meetings start at 10:30 am and end at 1:30 PM. (all times local). Lunch will be served and door prizes will be given away.
Topics that are going to be covered:
Milk Quality and Mastitis Economics: Video and Discussion
Dr. Jeffrey Bewley, UK Dairy Extension Specialist
Making Silage Sense: Video and Discussion
Joe Sparrow, Alltech
Hoof Health, Whats Really Going on Down There: Video and Discussion
Dr. Jennifer Newman and/or Andi Branstetter, Neogen (or other Neogen representatives)
The February 18 meeting in Todd County and February 19 meeting in Christian County will have a special guest speaker, Sherry Bunting, FarmShine contributor, replacing Dr. Jeffrey Bewley's presentation.
Ms Bunting is from a farming community in East Earl, PA. She milked cows while attending school and graduated from Millersville University with an English degree. Sherry has worked for 15 years as an editor of a Market Report on beef, sheep, swine and cattle grading and as assistant editor of the FARMSHINE publication. She has been a freelance writer and contributor to FARMSHINE since 1995 and is the secretary for a new grassroots producer organization, Dairy Policy Action Coalition.
Her presentation will highlight many hot topics in the dairy industry: 2010 market update, what can we expect in prices; milk pricing issues, what tools are available in the 2008 Farm Bill but are not being used; milk price discovery, is it being reported correctly; and trade issues, present trade agreements, what may be coming that could have a real impact.
This meeting series is unique because of the virtual video tours for each of the topics. Producers can see first hand how these management issues are handled and evaluated on farms, in real life.
Lunch will be provided at all of the meetings and we look forward to seeing you there.
Dairy producers are encouraged to attend their closest meeting.

Attitudes and Emotions Attitudes are judgments Emotions are experiences We feel emotions We think about attitudes We experience most emotions briefly Many attitudes last a long time Model of Attitudes and Behavior Beliefs Attitude Emotional Feelings Episodes Behavioral Intentions Behavior Job Satisfaction – What is it? A person's evaluation of his/her job and work context. A collection of attitudes about specific facets of the job. 85% of American's report they have been satisfied with their jobs for the last 10 years. Measures of Job Satisfaction General or Global Job Satisfaction How satisfied are you with your current job? Facet Satisfaction: Satisfaction with Pay, Benefits, Supervision, Co-workers, The Job Itself, Promotional Opportunities, Job Satisfaction Employee job satisfaction is both a function of the person and the job environment. Person – characteristics like education, work experience, age, expectations, negative or positive disposition can affect job satisfaction Job Environment – management style or leadership, autonomy, work tasks, social support, the design of the job etc. Theories of Job Satisfaction Fulfillment theory – receiving more of something on the job is better Discrepancy theory – the perceived gap between what one wants from the job and what one perceives it is offering Equity theory – perceived equity in the employee's outcome/input ratio compared to others Theories of Job Sat. Con't Intrinsic/Extrinsic – intrinsic sources originate within the employee and have psychological value (i.e., challenging work, recognition, sense of accomplishment etc.) Extrinsic sources originate outside of the employee (i.e., working conditions, relationships with co-workers, supervisors etc.) Job Satisfaction and Behavior Job dissatisfaction increases turnover, absenteeism, theft Weak to moderate association with job performance Why isn't this stronger? Satisfaction - Performance General attitudes (job sat.) don't predict specific performance behaviors very well. Dissatisfied employees can still put out effort and work productively while complaining, looking for another job or waiting for something to be fixed. Satisfaction - Performance Job Performance leads to Job satisfaction but only when performance is linked to valued rewards. Higher performers receive more rewards, consequently they are more satisfied. Many organizations don't reward good performance Satisfaction - Performance Job satisfaction might influence motivation but this isn't real predictive of actual performance. The job sat. --->performance relationship is strongest when employees have control at work and more freedom. Organizational Commitment Affective commitment Emotional attachment to, identification with, and involvement in an organization Continuance commitment Belief that staying with the organization serves your personal interests – too costly to quit Commitment is Related to Turnover Absenteeism Customer Satisfaction Competitive Advantage Work Motivation Organizational Citizenship Possible Negative Consequences of Continuance Commitment Low-cost loans, stock options, deferred bonuses may tie employees to the company Continuance commitment is not necessarily loyalty Building Organizational Commitment Maintain fairness, values, and integrity Provide some job security Support organizational comprehension - communicate Involve employees in decisions Build trust

Interest income for the fourth quarter of 2010 was RMB4.9 million (US$0.7 million), compared to RMB15 million in the same period of 2009. Equity income of an equity method investee was RMB0.2 million (US$0.03 million), compared to that of RMB2.4 million in the same quarter of 2009. The decrease in interest income was mainly due to (i) the maturity of all held-to-maturity investment securities which earned higher interest income, and (ii) lower cash balances as a result of the dividend payments and share buyback program in 2010.
Nepstar's effective tax rate was 40.9% for the fourth quarter, compared to 35.3% for the same period in 2009. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the varying profitability among subsidiary companies for the fourth quarter of 2010, an increase in the deferred tax asset valuation allowance mainly for tax loss carry forwards, and an increase in the transitional tax rate from 20% in 2009 to 22% in 2010 for subsidiaries in Shenzhen.
Net income in the fourth quarter of 2010 was RMB17 million (US$3 million), which represented RMB0.16 (US$0.02) basic and diluted earnings per American depositary share ("ADS"). This compares to net income of RMB43 million, which represented RMB0.40 basic earnings per ADS and RMB0.40 diluted earnings per ADS in the same period of 2009. The total number of outstanding ordinary shares of the Company as of December 31, 2010 was 208 million. The weighted average number of ordinary shares in the fourth quarter of 2010 was 208 million. Each ADS represents two ordinary shares of the Company.
As of December 31, 2010, Nepstar's total cash, cash equivalents and other bank deposits were RMB1,140 million (US$173 million) and its shareholders' equity was RMB1,569 million (US$238 million).

DURHAM, N.C. -- Gamma and neutron imaging offer possible improvements over existing techniques such as X-ray or CT, but their safety is not yet fully understood. Using computer simulations, imaging the liver and breast with gamma or neutron radiation was found to be safe, delivering levels of radiation on par with conventional medical imaging, according to researchers at Duke Medicine.
The findings, published in the June issue of the journal Medical Physics, will help researchers to move testing of gamma and neutron imaging into animals and later humans.
Conventional medical imaging tools including X-ray, ultrasound, CT and MRI detect disease by finding the anatomy, or shape and size, of the abnormality. When using these tools to screen for cancer, a tumor must be large enough to be detected, and if found, a surgical biopsy is generally required to determine if it is benign or malignant.
Duke researchers are working to develop imaging technologies to detect disease in its earliest stages, much before the tumors grow large enough to be detected using conventional methods. Two imaging techniques they are researching are Neutron Stimulated Emission Computed Tomography and Gamma Stimulated Emission Computed Tomography.
Research has shown that many tumors have an out-of-balance concentration of trace-level elements naturally found in the body, such as aluminum and rubidium. These elements stray from their normal concentration levels at the earliest stages of tumor growth, potentially providing an early signal of disease.
The neutron and gamma imaging methods measure the concentrations of elements in the body, determining molecular properties without the need for a biopsy or injection of contrast media. The goal is for these tests to be able to distinguish between benign and malignant lesions, as well as healthy tissue.
"Gamma and neutron imaging may eventually be able to help us to detect cance

"It's frickin' freezing in here, Mr. Zuckerberg." Capella International
Facebook's newest data farm, its first overseas, is ideally located in scenic Lulea, Sweden, just 62 miles away from the always-pleasant Arctic Circle. With an average year-round temperature of a brisk 35 degrees Fahrenheit, it will naturally accommodate most of Facebook's data-cooling needs.
Just a short walk to the beautiful Lulea River Dam, which produces twice the energy of the Hoover Dam, Facebook will take advantage of what Lulea officials call some of the cheapest power in Europe. Not only will less energy be used because of the cold, but it will be cheaper due to its proximity to the dam. It is also in one of the most reliable power grids on the planet, one that has not experienced a single outage since 1979.
The move is being lauded as one that is not only business savvy, but environmentally conscious. The new center will both capitalize on renewable hydropower and, thanks to the already-chilled environment, reduce the number of backup diesel generators by 70 percent.
Appropriately enough, the 11-football-field-size complex is expected to host Facebook's Open Compute Project, dedicated to decreasing computing demand on power grids around the globe.
Keep your eyes peeled for similar server farms to pop up in Lulea. The Telegraph in London reports that the host of the data farm, Aurorum Science Park, is leading a push to turn the city into what they call the "Node Pole."

As annoying as these weekly twists and power shifts are, they do a great job of keeping the show interesting. Tonight was this seasons 2nd double eviction of the season and sh*t got cray! At the beginning of the episode we got a short recap of the events leading up to last nights first eviction. Alec tried to campaign against Topaz explaining that she was a bigger threat than he was. Yah right! As if anyone would believe that story. Alec is easy on the eyes and has a good heart but that's the issue, he has a heart. He truly sealed his fate when he went against Topaz during her HOH and voted to keep Andrew. Yes it kept him safe for one week however it got him evicted this week. Here are the votes:
I don't feel bad because at the end of the day he didn't walk away empty handed. Alec left the house $10 000 richer and he has a sweet ride to drive back in to Vancouver in. However he won't be heading back to Vancouver just yet as he will be joining Gary and AJ in the jury house.
Leaving Sunday's nominations the events in the house were pretty monotonous. Alec was ofcourse upset that he was on the block against his fellow alliance member of The Shield Peter, and Topaz was calling Jillian's word in the game complete bullsh*t. When it came time to pick players for the Veto competition the house knew this would be the competition that sealed Alec's fate. The best possible scenario would be all of the East Coasters Alliance being chosen to play, making it basically the entire house against Peter and Alec. Here are the players:
Last night on Big Brother Canada we picked up where we left off on Sunday. This weeks Head of Household competition was an endurance challenge. The last houseguest standing on Big Brother's iceberg was the winner. Houseguests were hit with a barrage of wind and ice cold water in addition to standing in an incredibly awkward situation. Surprisingly, Alec was the first to jump off after 1hr and 20mins had elapsed. Shortly after was Peter and Emmett not far behind with a DQ'd for talking his hand off the bar. The guys tend to have a harder time with these types of challenges as they are holding onto more weight than the girls. I for sure thought Talla had this competition wrapped up but she couldn't take it anymore after 2hr and 12mins of enduring the cold. Around the 3hr mark Alec and the rest of the guys were sitting humbled by the fact that the girls completely dominated this challenge. They could see that both Topaz and Jillian had no intention of jumping down, knowing this was the most important HOH of the season so far. After the rest of the players went into the house Jillian and Topaz made a deal to keep each other showmances safe. Topaz wouldn't put up Emmett or Jillian, and Jillian wouldn't put up Topaz or Alec. Moments after the deal was made, Topaz jumped off, crowning Jillian the new Head of Household.
Big Brother Canada lost one its strongest, funniest most entertaining houseguests last night. The events leading up to his eviction gave us at home false hope but then again that is Big Brother. That's right guys, our very own Gary was voted out of the Big Brother house. It was tough to see him go, he grew on me. He was a strong player and showed amazing sportsmanship when leaving. He will have great a great influence on who wins it all in the jury.
As for the rest of the show it was cute. We got to see some of the houseguests family and how they feel of their son/daughter/brother/sister's behaviour throughout the game so far. Jillian's family loves Emmett and vice versa. We got to see where the Shield alliance sprouted from and Peter's mother reveals she can count the things he likes to eat on one hand. It makes sense but to be honest I couldn't care less. He's a floater, and while to some that may be an acceptable game play to me I don't think he's doing much to earn him spot. He's definitely taking a page out of Dan's book, runner up for Big Brother 14. However Dan used a mental game that saved him from the chopping block countless times. Peter is a boring, weak competitor whose voice is worst than nails on a chalk bored. Harsh but I want him gone next week.
Tonight's episode of Big Brother Canada was an emotional rollercoaster, it started off where we left off on Sunday with Gary crying. Gary and his best friend Topaz were put up on the block by Andrew and the thought of either of them leaving had both Topaz and Gary very upset. Topaz's HOH was not right, Big Brother Canada is trying too hard to stir the pot. She was HOH for 10 mins, all of which was in the complete view of the entire house, resulting in her being named public enemy #1. Before the Power of Veto competition nothing interesting happened so let's get to it. Here are the players for the veto competition.
Tonight's episode of Big Brother Canada was an hour, jam packed with juicy drama, we began with Arisa informing us at home that tonight was a Power Shift Instant Eviction. Immediately after Suzette's eviction Topaz was called up to the HOH room. Topaz was locked away from the other houseguests and Arisa informed her she had 5 minutes to name 2 houseguests for eviction. She had to make the decision without the input of any other houseguest including her showmance partner Alec. While Topaz was making her decision up in the HOH room the houseguests were called into the living room to watch as Topaz weighed out her options, out loud. The entire house heard who she was planning to nominate and who she planned to keep around for her personal own game. Talla and Andrew's name came up in a not so positive way. Ultimately she nominated AJ and Andrew for nomination and houseguests wasted no time in casting their votes. Here are the votes:
From the beginning of the episode it was clear that Suzette's time in the Big Brother house was fading. She had accepted the fact that she was leaving, and started to see it as a blessing in disguise because she would be able to see her kids who, for the past couple weeks, she couldn't stop talking about. After the Veto Ceremony Emmett tried to go further into detail explaining what he meant at during his speech. He wanted her to leave on a good not and for the other houseguests to actually want to talk to her.
In appears there is trouble in paradise with Alec and Topaz's showmance on the rocks for a part of this episode. It's no secret Topaz likes to nap. Big Brother even went as far as set an alarm for her when she needs to go to the diary room or complete a task. However the alarm rings throughout the entire house and it's beginning to annoy her fellow houseguests. Whilst in the HOH room Topaz was sleeping listening to music the Big Brother alarm sounded. It played for so long Big Brother actually confiscated Alec's iPod so she couldn't use it to ignore Big Brother. This upset Alec to a point where he approach the remaining members of the Quatro Alliance and stated Topaz needs to go within the coming weeks. He expected an apology and a warm hug but instead Topaz didn't see where he was coming from and brushed it off.
Tonight's episode, like most of the episodes started off on a dull note. It's seems that with each passing episode my attention grows weaker. Nevertheless the houseguests seem to be having a good time and I am impressed in the way the majority of them have been competing. The whole throwing competition strategy is out the window and the real competitors are beginning to shine. Skipping right into the POV competition here are the players:

Time to relax with the StressWatch
The StressWatch changes colors and patterns to warn of the wearer's stress levels in real time
The StressWatch gives a visual representation of the wearer's stress levels through a combination of heart rate and body temperature measurements
The StressWatch
Article Summary
Most of us need a little bit of stress in our lives to operate effectively - the saying: "if it wasn't for the 11th hour I'd never get anything done" rings true for many of us. But those with highly demanding jobs, or who live in stressful environments, know how damaging long-term exposure to stress can be. The StressWatch concept is intended as a stress-reducing device that provides a visual alarm for those sufferers who want to reduce the impact stress has on their health. In the past, Gizmag has witnessed a few stress-relieving devices like the HeartMath emwave PSR and the 'stress sensor vest' - it seems stress just won't leave us alone, so we better learn to deal with it.
