Press release from PR Newswire
MFA Financial, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2012 Financial Results
Friday, May 04, 2012
MFA Financial, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2012 Financial Results08:30 EDT Friday, May 04, 2012NEW YORK, May 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- MFA Financial, Inc. (NYSE: MFA) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012. First Quarter 2012 and other recent highlights:First quarter net income per common share of $0.23 and Core Earnings (as defined below) per common share of $0.21. Book value per common share increased to $7.49 at the end of the first quarter versus $6.74 at 2011 year-end due primarily to price appreciation within our Non-Agency portfolio. On April 30, 2012, MFA paid its first quarter 2012 dividend of $0.24 per share of common stock to stockholders of record as of April 4, 2012. In the first quarter we added multi-year Non-Agency MBS financing, including an expanded collateralized financing arrangement and a re-securitization, reducing our reliance on short-term repurchase arrangements for Non-Agency MBS. We increased to $500 million an existing collateralized financing arrangement that effectively provides three year financing for Non-Agency MBS. As a part of a re-securitization, $186.7 million of senior bonds rated "AAA" by DBRS, Inc. were issued to third-party investors via a trust. These bonds, with an average life of 1.9 years, were priced at a 2.75% yield. For the first quarter ended March 31, 2012, MFA generated net income allocable to common stockholders of $82.3 million, or $0.23 per share of common stock. Core Earnings for the first quarter were $74.3 million, or $0.21 per share of common stock. "Core Earnings" is a Non-GAAP financial measure, which reflects net income excluding $0.9 million of other-than-temporary impairment charges, $3.0 million of gain on sales of MBS and a $5.9 million increase in the fair value of the securities underlying our Linked Transactions. Stewart Zimmerman, MFA's Chairman of the Board and CEO, said, "MFA continues to provide stockholders with attractive returns through appropriately leveraged investments in both Agency and Non-Agency residential MBS. At quarter-end our debt to equity ratio (including the liabilities underlying our Linked Transactions) was 3.5:1. Our Agency portfolio had an average amortized cost basis of 102.8% of par as of March 31, 2012, and generated a 3.15% yield in the first quarter. Our Non-Agency portfolio had an average amortized cost of 73.1% of par as of March 31, 2012, and generated a loss-adjusted yield of 6.92% in the first quarter (Non-Agency average cost and loss-adjusted yield are adjusted for the impact of MBS Linked Transactions). "Our goal remains to continue positioning MFA to generate double-digit returns on equity over time. We continued to selectively find value in the Agency MBS market. In addition, we continued to implement our strategy of growing our Non-Agency MBS assets at what we consider to be superior loss-adjusted yields at prices well below par. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, MFA's cost for compensation and benefits and other general and administrative expenses were $8.4 million or an annualized 1.22% based on stockholders' equity at March 31, 2012. We believe MFA, an internally managed REIT, continues to operate on a very cost effective basis for the benefit of our stockholders."William Gorin, MFA's President, added, "In the first quarter, book value per share increased by approximately 11% due primarily to appreciation within our Non-Agency portfolio. While housing fundamentals remain weak, we believe that we have appropriately factored this into our cash flow projections and credit reserve estimates. Our Non-Agency MBS loss adjusted yield of 6.92% is based on projected defaults that are approximately twice the amount of underlying mortgage loans that are presently 60+ days delinquent. These underlying mortgage loans were originated on average more than five years ago so that we have access to more than 60 months of payment history. In the first quarter we continued to add multi-year financing that serves to reduce our reliance on short-term repurchase agreements for Non-Agency MBS. While this financing is incrementally more expensive than short-term repo financing by approximately 100-150 basis points, we believe the certainty of the committed term outweighs the additional cost." MFA's $4.520 billion fair market value of Non-Agency MBS had a face amount of $6.037 billion, an amortized cost of $4.415 billion and a net purchase discount of $1.622 billion (all amounts adjusted for the impact of MBS Linked Transactions) at March 31, 2012. This discount consists of a $1.352 billion credit reserve and other-than-temporary impairments and a $269.7 million net accretable discount. In addition, at March 31, 2012, these Non-Agency MBS had 4.6% average structured credit enhancement in the form of subordination (subordinated bonds which absorb losses before MFA's Non-Agency MBS are impacted). This structured credit enhancement, together with the purchase discount, mitigates MFA's risk of loss on these investments. Unlike MFA's Agency MBS, due to their discounted purchase prices, the return on Non-Agency MBS will generally increase if the prepayment rates on these securities trend up. Despite low mortgage rates, the portfolio CPR declined in the first quarter of 2012 versus the fourth quarter of 2011. The following table presents the weighted average prepayment speed on MFA's MBS portfolio (including MBS underlying Linked Transactions).Table 1First Quarter 2012 Average CPRFourth Quarter 2011 Average CPRMBS Portfolio16.43%17.08%Agency MBS17.90%19.35%Non-Agency MBS13.98%13.01% As of March 31, 2012, under its swap agreements, MFA has a weighted average fixed pay rate of interest of 2.73% and a floating receive rate of 0.28% on notional balances totaling $3.224 billion, with an average maturity of 20 months.

MFA's management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release, when considered together with GAAP financial measures, provide information that is useful to investors in understanding period-over-period operating results and balance sheet composition. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measures should be made in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.Core Earnings and Core Earnings per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2012, are not measures of performance in accordance with GAAP, as they exclude impairment losses recognized through earnings, gain on sale of MBS and changes in fair value of MBS underlying our Linked Transactions.MFA believes that Core Earnings and Core Earnings per share provides investors with a useful measure to assess the performance of the Company's ongoing business and useful supplemental information to both management and investors in evaluating our financial results. A reconciliation of the GAAP items discussed above to their non-GAAP measures for the three months ended March 31, 2012, are as follows:Table 4Three Months EndedMarch 31, 2012(In Thousands, Except Per Share Amounts)ReconciliationBasic and Diluted EPSGAAP Net Income Available to Common Stock and $82,673Participating SecuritiesLess: Dividends and Dividend Equivalent Rights on (416)Participating SecuritiesGAAP Net Income Allocable to Common Stockholders$82,257$0.23Non-GAAP Adjustments:Impairment Losses Recognized in Earnings$920Gain on Sale of MBS(2,953)Changes in Net Unrealized Gains on Linked Transactions(5,915)Total Adjustments to Arrive at Core Earnings$(7,948)$(0.02)Core Earnings$74,309$0.21Weighted Average Common Shares Outstanding - Basic and Diluted356,167As noted above, certain Non-Agency MBS purchases are presented as a component of Linked Transactions in MFA's GAAP financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012. In assessing the performance of the Non-Agency MBS portfolio, MFA's management does not view these transactions as linked, but rather views the performance of the linked Non-Agency MBS and the related repurchase agreement borrowings as it would any other Non-Agency MBS that is not part of a linked transaction. Consequently, MFA considers that these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in analyzing the performance of MFA's Non-Agency MBS in the same way that MFA's management assesses such assets. However, as noted above, these non-GAAP financial measures do not take into account the effect of the changes in fair value of MBS underlying Linked Transactions, impairment charges and gains on sale of MBS which are reflected in GAAP earnings.Information pertaining to MFA's Non-Agency MBS that are a component of Linked Transactions are reconciled below as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2012, with the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, as follows:Table 5Adjustments to IncludeAssets/Liabilities of GAAP BasedUnderlying LinkedNon-GAAP(Dollars in Thousands)Information TransactionsPresentationAt March 31, 2012:Repurchase Agreement Borrowings$7,908,932$84,776(1)$7,993,708Securitized Debt967,422-967,422Obligation to Return Securities Held as Collateral503,740-503,740Payable for Unsettled MBS Purchases99,772-99,772Total Borrowings (Debt)$9,479,866$84,776(1)$9,564,642Stockholders' Equity$2,765,494$-$2,765,494Debt-to-Equity (Debt/Stockholders' Equity)3.4x3.5xFor the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012:Average Interest Earning Assets$11,244,222$147,321(2)$11,391,543Interest Income$123,523$2,288$125,811Yield on Average Interest Earning Assets4.39%6.21%4.42%Average Total Borrowings$8,721,868$111,018(1)$8,832,886Interest Expense$40,127$504$40,631Average Cost of Funds1.85%1.83%1.85%Net Interest Rate Spread2.54%4.38%2.57%(1) Represents borrowings under repurchase agreements underlying Linked Transactions.(2) Represents Non-Agency MBS underlying Linked Transactions.The table below reconciles MFA's Non-Agency MBS and related repurchase agreement borrowings and securitized debt on a GAAP basis to reflect on a combined basis its Non-Agency MBS and related repurchase agreements underlying its Linked Transactions, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.

Building relationships. It sounds so simple, but it can make all the difference to a child, a family and the whole community -- especially by reducing violence. So says Kristan Lundquist, who knows first-hand through her work with the City's five neighborhood centers as a Community Service Manager.
Help buld strong families for peaceful communities.
Strong families are the key to our future. Partners For Peace focuses on three key programs to build strong families:

Remember, the police only want to arrest people as a last resort. It's far, far better to for children grow up happy, healthy and free of gangs, and the Salinas Police want to help make that happen.
Recently, CASP's Rosemary Soto interviewed Anahi Amador (pictured) about her work as the Advocate Supervisor at Voices For Children of Monterey County.

From the Monterey Herald: Rancho Cielo students on Thursday received what once seemed impossible: their high school or GED diplomas. "We were the mess-ups, the low men on the totem pole, the dropouts," Martin Montoya told family, friends, staff and students at the graduation ceremony for Rancho Cielo's YouthBuild construction program.
A ceremony for Rancho Cielo's culinary academy graduates was held earlier Thursday.
"Leaving high school is a huge transition in our lives and none of us know what the world has in store for us," Montoya said. "I do know, however, that we have now been given the tools to deal with those life events."
Rancho Cielo is a school and social services center in Salinas that provides educational opportunities and job training for at-risk youth in Monterey County.

The Community Alliance for Safety and Peace (CASP) meets the first and third Wednesday of the month. At our meetings, we share information on what's being done by CASP and its member organizations as we work towards our goal of a more peaceful future.

WHAT'S DOING IN; St. John's
By KATHERINE ASHENBURG
Published: August 8, 1999
Newfoundlanders love what they call a ''time,'' which the scholarly Dictionary of Newfoundland English defines as ''a party or celebration, esp. a communal gathering with dancing, entertainment, etc.''
And 1999 is turning out to be rich in times. It's the 50th anniversary of Newfoundland's confederation with Canada, when the formerly independent Commonwealth country voted by the slimmest of margins to abandon its own coins, stamps and national anthem and become Canada's 10th province. The vote counting in 1949 is still debated in Newfoundland, as are the effects of the merger. Those in favor point to the economic benefits Canada has since conferred on its poorest province. The sizable minority that thinks it was all a mistake worries that Newfoundland sold its soul.
Whatever your opinion about confederation, there's no need to worry about Newfoundland's soul. When the provincial department of tourism begins its brochure about the 50th-anniversary festivities with the title ''Celebrating Canada Our Way,'' it's neither aggressive nor an idle boast. Newfoundland remains, after Quebec, the most distinct society in Canada, a gregarious, Irish-accented place with an astonishingly active artistic life and a rock-solid sense of itself.
St. John's, the capital, is marking the anniversary with an assortment of concerts, plays and gatherings. But the city, which dates back to the 16th century, is a time in itself -- whether you're pub-crawling on George Street, where in a few short blocks the live music mutates from jazz to bluegrass to traditional Newfoundland, or negotiating the city's sometimes bewildering crazy quilt of streets (designed to discourage the spread of fires).
It's still a place where truck drivers see you puzzling over a street map and ask if they can give you a lift, and where strangers young and old answer your request for directions with a very Irish ''Of course, my love.''
One of the traditional Newfoundland times was a kitchen party, a casual night of food, drink, music, comedy and stories. To mark 50 years in Canada, Spirit of Newfoundland Productions is putting on a kitchen party every night in August, at 6:30 at the Masonic Temple on Cathedral Street. The food, from beet salad to caribou stew, is as authentic as the entertainment, which includes a dance-up in jig time and much audience participation. Paying guests are welcome, at $19.70 a person, calculated at $1.50 Canadian to the dollar; (709) 579-3023.
Paddy McGuinty, a fierce anti-Confederate, dies in 1949 just as Newfoundland joins Canada, with hilarious results for his Irish wake. That's the premise of ''Paddy McGuinty's Wake,'' a piece of musical dinner theater playing until Sept. 11 at 7 P.M. in the Theater at St. John's Lane, 223 Duckworth. Tickets, $23; (709) 579-3023.
World War II bunkers at the extreme edge of Cape Spear, the easternmost point in North America, are not your ordinary concert site. But the gun placements form a natural amphitheater, and every Tuesday and Thursday night until Sept. 2, there will be a wood fire, traditional Newfoundland music and storytelling (with possible guest appearances by whales, foxes and meteor showers). The concerts, which start at 9, cost $6.70, $3.35 for students, and children under 12 are free. Cape Spear is about nine miles from St. John's, and transportation is available ($4). Call (709) 772-4444 for information on tickets and transit.
A similar program of storytelling and music comes to the city Sunday nights at 9 at the Ship Inn, on Solomon's Lane off Duckworth Street. The host, as at Cape Spear, will be Anita Best, a traditional singer; $6.70. Call (709) 738-3945.
Newfoundlanders are much given to omens, spirits and tall tales, territory that the Rev. Thomas Wyckham Jarvis traverses as he leads the St. John's Haunted Hike through the downtown streets. Telling scary stories of revenge, murder and ''curious manifestations of the Holy Ghost,'' as he puts it, Monday to Thursday until Sept. 2, Mr. Jarvis is really a graduate student in folklore, Dale Jarvis. No reservations are necessary for the 90-minute excursion, which leaves at 9:30 P.M. from the west entrance of the Anglican Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, at Church Hill; $6.70; (709) 576-2087.
The city's best sight is the harbor-hugging downtown core where Water Street dates back to the 1500's. In spite of frequent fires, the 19th century is much in evidence, and the melange of stone churches, heavy ironwork fences and the tall, brightly painted wooden houses that sprang up after the Great Fire of 1892 is exhilarating. So is the hilly topography: there are times when St. John's feels like a historic Stairmaster. There are two walking tours -- one featuring downtown public buildings, the other old residential streets -- in the booklet ''St. John's and Avalon Region: Visitor Guide 1999,'' available at City Hall on New Gower Street, the tourist information rail car on Harbour Drive east of Ayre's Cove, and many hotels.
A fishing village is called an outport in Newfoundland, but St. John's still has two such villages within walking distance from downtown. Follow Duckworth Street east to Battery Road to see the Battery, which dates from the 17th century. Closely packed houses, originally for fishermen, clamber up rocks, lining streets with names like Hipditch Hill -- all overlooking the harbor.

I'm writing a program (in C++), which requires several VS projects, that I would like to put in the same VS solution. I'm using Visual Studio 2010.
Here is simply the wanted architecture : I'm using a 3rd party library (A) for my project, I have all the headers and .lib files, that I compiled with the source code.
With this library, I'm writing my own classes and function. That is my project (B).
Then I would like to develop two interfaces for the users: A command line interface (C1) and a GUI interface (C2), that are using the classes and functions defined in (B).
I'm new to Visual Studio, and I don't know how to handle these dependencies properly. Shall I use project dependencies (in the solution properties) or references (in the project properties) ? In fact, I'm not sure what dependencies and references are doing exactly.
Shall I compile B into some .lib library, or do something else ? If I do so, have to link only B.lib to my C1 and C2 projects, or should I also link A.lib (in other words, is the content of A.lib included somehow in B.lib ?). And of course I would want the dependencies to be handle well, in order to always work with the up-to-date version of each project.
Is there a good way of doing it ? Thank's in advance, and have a nice week-end :)

This was the first time I used my new smoker to smoke a chicken. The chicken was very flavorful, juicy and tender. The only thing I did different was to use pineapple juice instead of apple. Great
A-MAZ-ING! I made this for a work potluck, and used all chicken legs. I just dumped all the marinade ingredients in a zip-lock bag and added the chicken. Marinaded overnight and then smoked in my smoker with a mix of apple and hickory chips. In the water pan i used a mix of apple juice, water and black cherry whiskey. Received nothing by rave reviews. Thanks for posting
This was absolutely fantastically delicious!! I used a whole chicken, cut up. I injected with the marinade the night before and applied the rub the next morning. I also used the Kansas City Dry Rub (#52711 - Which is also fantastic, btw) My only regret is that I only made ONE chicken. There were no leftovers.
I did this on my gas smoker and it was so simple and turned out wonderful,the apple juice raelly added a great flavor. Archie
First off let me tell you this smoked chicken turned out perfect and was so delicious. I followed your recipe exactly using legs and thighs and misting with apple juice every 30 minutes. My DH and I smoked three different recipes and we prefered this one overall. I used Kansas City Dry Rub (#52711) for the barbeque spice. Oh yeh this was the first time I ever injected a marinade into meat; and that was quite fun and it really made a world of difference in taste. Thanks a whole whole lots KC_Cooker....
This was an excellent recipe. I used Chicken legs with back attached. Ted Reader's "Bone Dust" bbq rub was used. finished chicken on bbq with apple juice basting instead of doing it on the smoker.

"Twilight" star Kellan Lutz has found a new lady to sink his teeth into.
On Thursday, the hunky actor, 26, was photographed hanging out with a mystery woman -- grabbing coffee and strolling by the beach in Venice, Calif., and later hitting Lake Shrine Temple in the Pacific Palisades.

I am a father of two amazing daughters. I am...
I am a father of two amazing daughters. I am not a part time dad. I have a stable job, great family and incredible friends. I am exactly what you see and read. Honesty and laughter are an absolute must. Without either of these two, things only turn out bad as I am an honest smart ass. I used to play hockey for a living and now I don't. While I am not the guy you will see on muscle and fitness, I can guarantee I am more athletic than those that claim they are or so I say. Die hard Hawks fan since I was a kid, not some bandwagoner. I do look exactly like my pictures. I have a full head of hair even though I seem to have a hat on in every picture...and I don't always wear a hat. It seems like every pic I have of me has one of my kids in it. I don't think this is a bad thing. I know how to treat a woman. With two daughters, I could not imagine setting a bad example. Not to mention that I have 4 sisters. So, you are in good hands and mind. I am looking for someone that is responsible, funny, enjoys life and is honest. Simplistic to me. Basic physical looks and chemistry will take care of itself. Someone who wants to share all the random Groupon and Living Social deals I buy just for the fck of it. My family is quite extended and we are all very close. So, family is a must as well. I take pride in the following: My kids, I am honest, an incredible friend, I smell good without wearing cologne, I take care of my teeth, my laundry, I am well respected, I have no enemies, my work, being silly and fun, going to gym because I like to..not because I have to, I do not get along well with yoga and I am not sure any man should, I don't eat seafood, I am not out to just get laid, I love sandwiches, I rarely forget anything that I cant remember, I can play any sport or so I say, I love to swim and really like cheese. (Although I won't swim for 30 min until after I eat) I take care of my teeth and my laundry smells better than yours. Guaranteed. I forgot I already mentioned that. I also own a tv that has cable and gets watched. Yes, an apparent cardinal sin if living in Seattle. Deal with it..or let's make a deal. I also spend a lot of time in Spokane where I was raised and whole family still lives. Cynical side of me...the famous - "I'm just looking for a nice guy, one who's funny and treats me with respect, likes to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro every day and all that matters is happiness". Shouldn't matter if I'm CEO of Microsoft or assistant duty manager at crack in the box. My words to you. Write what you actually want and not the bs you think you want. Otherwise...I will continue to see you on here over and over. Me...yes, I'm on here, but, I have 2 massive reasons to be picky on here. That will never change. I am genuine, real, honest and I still believe....but in the meantime...I am lucky to have met some of the people I have on here. I tend to favorite people so I can email them at a later time rather than while walking around or riding an elevator looking at my phone. I took awhile off of here and just realized that all emails disappear after 30 days. Yes, I did say I rarely forget anything. Also, is there some sort of female discount at Machu Picchu I don't know about? Every woman on here has a pic of them there. Odd. It seems as though I must check out this female sanctuary. With that, it's still hockey season, and I never leave the seat up .
Camping , Business networking , Cooking , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Playing cards , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Baseball, Bowling, Cycling, Football, Golf, Hockey, Inline skating, Other types of exercise, Skiing, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
Middle of the Road
My favorite hot spots would take forever. Always love a view, but, the company is the most important. Leavenworth and Chelan are always a must. Traveling, well, I just enjoy going anywhere. Who doesn't like to travel?
My favorite things, easy...my kids! Laughter is a must, so, comedies are my favorite when it comes to movies and tv. I love all food, except seafood...and I don't know why. My music interests are pretty much anything.
Anything that does not involve yoga.
Many, many to my children.

You're just holding your phone wrong
I updated my galaxy nexus to android 4.2, complete fresh load.
I removed it yesterday and went back to 4.1 I experienced the random reboots, the instability, battery drain and slow charging and odd behaviour on the lockscreen. I also noticed my phone got extremely hot after a full charge
When 4.1 was first released I upgraded straight away and never looked back, 4.2 however just isn't quite right yet

My battery life has gotten worse over the past couple of days but I think that's because I'm using the Cloud Player when I'm out and about.

Expert Author Paul H Morgan
Nothing happens in business until someone sells something to someone else. It is that simple. Unfortunately, the process of getting it to happen is far from simple. Why? It is called marketing and without marketing the engine of business grinds to a halt.
What is marketing? Simply put, it is the right product, at the right place, at the right price and at the right time.
Now let's look at those four things more closely.
Right Product. If you have identified a 'hole' in the marketplace; good for you. If there is 'no hole', create one by offering something that is slightly different from everyone else. You won't win by being "no better or worse than everybody else."
Right Place. If you have a singular product or service, you have to identify a place where you can do the best business selling it. Do not be scared to move away from your immediate area to capture the market share or to put you in front of your target market.
Right Price. The price has to be good for both sides. The customer has to be able to see the value, and you have to be able to earn a profit. The lowest price does not always win and as a matter of fact rarely wins. Price according to the market and stick by your guns. Add value to your product or service rather than drop the price.
Right Time. Sometimes there is a very small window of opportunity. He who hesitates is lost. You have to be able to move quickly and take advantage of favorable market conditions. If there is a 'hole' in the marketplace, and you don't fill it when you can, rest assured that someone else will.
The first step in your marketing strategy is identifying and understanding what your customers want from you. You need to see everything that you do from the customer's point of view.
Do your market research:
Ask your ideal customer – your potential customer what he or she is looking for. You may identify a different business opportunity that you hadn't even thought about.
Ask your potential suppliers or sales reps what they think. Their experience will help you understand what your ideal customers have been purchasing.
Find out what is happening in the business that you want to open. Phone your local economic development branch to stay in touch with developing trends in the industry. Gathering this information will be invaluable to you when starting your business because it is specific and current.

Ellen DeGeneres to Join Forces With HGTVBy: Kimberly Ripley - April 23, 2014
Ellen DeGeneres is set to join forces with HGTV. Starting in 2015 she will host a design competition called Ellen's Design Challenge. The six-episode run marks the first foray of DeGeneres's production company's–A Very Good Production–into cable TV.
The new show will feature six competitors delving into various design challenges–all involving furniture. Each contestant will sketch, design, and build furniture based on each challenge's specifications within 24 hours of being issued the challenge.
The last of the six contestants standing will win a cash prize, although exactly how much that prize will be hasn't yet been formally announced.
"I'm so excited about this show because I love finding really special pieces of furniture," Ellen DeGeneres said. "One time I found a beautiful one-of-a-kind armoire that spoke to me in a way I'd never experienced. It turned out there was a drifter living inside of it, but that's a story for another time."
Ellen's passion for furniture and house design will be highlighted in the show as well.
"There has been a lot of dancing in our halls since we shared that we will be collaborating with Ellen," HGTV and DIY Network president Kathleen Finch said. "When she talked to us about her love of buying and renovating homes, her personal passion for the creative process of furniture design emerged as something that she wanted to explore more. Since HGTV is the ultimate forum in this space, and since no other network can deliver an audience who is as enthusiastic as she is about the creative process, we just had to make it happen."
If you're an HGTV fan as well as a fan of Ellen DeGeneres, this news is likely the announcement of the best of both worlds coming together. You can enjoy your home design–or in this case furniture design–while staying up to date on what your favorite daytime TV funny lady is doing.
Will this latest project of Ellen DeGeneres's turn to gold the way so many of her other projects have?

Antiwar activist Sister Carol Gilbert returned home from prison this week after serving a 33-month sentence for a Plowshares disarmament action. During her time behind bars, she became friends with a high-profile prisoner at Alderson Federal Prison—Martha Stewart. In an interview on Democracy Now!, Gilbert says, "Martha [Stewart] is totally against the war in Iraq, there is no question about it...we need to understand that Martha is still under house arrest right now, and so, she still is very limited by what she is allowed to do and not do by this government.." [includes rush transcript]
Sister Carol Gilbert has been released from prison after serving a 33-month sentence in a federal prison. She was jailed along with two other Dominican sisters — Sister Ardeth Platte and Sister Jackie Hudson. They were arrested for destroying government property during a Plowshares action at the N-8 Minuteman silo in Colorado.
- Carol Gilbert
This is a rush transcript. Copy may not be in its final form.
AMY GOODMAN: As we wrap up this week and today's show, we thought we would go down to Baltimore to your home, Frida, where you were just a few days ago, to Jonah House for the return home of Sister Carol Gilbert, one of three women, one of three nuns who several years ago hammered on warheads in Colorado, protesting the invasion of Iraq, were sentenced to a number of years in prison. She has just come out of prison now, and joins us on the phone from your home, Carol Gilbert, and Frida Berrigan's home. Welcome to Democracy Now!
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: Thank you, Amy.
AMY GOODMAN: It's good to have you with us. We played a clip when you came out of jail on Monday, but wanted to ask about the controversy around Jonah House and the questions that were raised about you being allowed to return to your home after you served out your prison sentence.
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: That's correct, Amy. I understand I have two probation officers, one in Maryland and one in Colorado. The problem with Maryland is that they did not want me to return to Jonah House and be living with felons. And there's the question of restitution. And it's clear that the war making continues, and I will not pay any money, any kind of restitution, and so therefore, my travel, it appears, at least for the next three years, could be that I cannot travel outside the State of Maryland. We have done alternative restitution, in that we have collected in our names over $120,000 to all kinds of wonderful charitable organizations and social justice organizations, and each of us has made our own contribution to the work of the prison, in the sense that I made over 25 pairs of mittens and sweaters in that for the poor of Alderson. Whether or not the judge will accept that remains to be seen.
AMY GOODMAN: Can you explain briefly what it is you did?
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: On the morning of October 6, 2002, the three of us entered a Minuteman three missile silo in northern Colorado to inspect, expose and symbolically disarm this weapon. We were trying to prevent the war in Iraq and felt that under international law, we had a responsibility to try to draw attention and to show the world that these are our weapons of mass destruction and for that the government chose to charge us with felonies similar to a sabotage charge.
AMY GOODMAN: You had a well-known inmate with you at Alderson, Martha Stewart. Did you come to know her?
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: I did come to know Martha very well, and I think she totally understands now the injustice of the system and hopefully will continue to speak out and work to see that the system really needs to collapse. We're not even sure it can be reformed at this point.
JUAN GONZALEZ: And your feeling, having spent that time in jail, protesting the war, to find that it's still going on, it's still — it's still, the resistance is stronger than ever, and the determination of President Bush to continue prosecuting this war seems to be stronger than ever?
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: Absolutely. Just, in fact, what I would say is even clearer to me is just as the war continues on the international front and the corruption of the corporations such as Halliburton, we have the same thing happening on the domestic scene, only in this country it's the prisons and the corruption and the illegalities of Unicore, and so many things go on in the prisons. So we've got prisons in this country and war on the international scene, and both soldiers and prisoners are disposable people.
AMY GOODMAN: And on the issue of Martha Stewart, since she could have such tremendous impact if she spoke out around prison conditions, did she express an opinion on the occupation in Iraq?
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: Martha is totally against the war in Iraq. There's no question about it. And I think we need to understand that Martha is still under house arrest right now, and so, she still is very limited by what she is allowed to do and not do by this government.
AMY GOODMAN: I want to thank you very much for joining us, Sister Carol Gilbert.
SISTER CAROL GILBERT: Thank you so much, Amy.
AMY GOODMAN: Speaking to us from her home in Jonah House, and Frida Berrigan of World Policy Institute.

He ran a good race
You can Win the Preakness Divining Rod!!!!!!! Run your race boy!!!
How can (I'll have another) be in front of Smarty Jones?
Good Win!
I just watch the replay of the derby. Is it normal for a jockey to hit a horse 32 times coming down the stretch? Thats how many times I count Victor Espinoza hit AP.
Thank you!
For sure is he running in the Barrera stakes? Is he working at Santa Anita?
I am very greatfull I have watched in person Shared Belief win 4 of the 5 races! If I was closer to Golden Gate where he trains I would go watch him work. Once in a life time Horse this Shared Belief.
That was terrible to watch. look to me the jockey made a bad decision.
Way to go Divining Rod!!!!!
