Every weekday on Marketplace, Kai Ryssdal hosts a lively and unexpected exploration of the day's business and economic news from Wall Street to your wallet.

09-30-14 - Marketplace - Birthday cake for HealthCare.gov?
Today eBay announced that it's going to split with PayPal and make both entities separate companies. Will PayPal users actually notice? In other tech-companies-talking news, Netflix has forged a deal with the Weinstein Company, to stream a sequel to the hit movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" next year on the same day the movie is released in selected theaters. This disrupts the current movie distribution system which mandates a delay between a movie's release in theaters and its being made available in other forms – DVD, Pay TV and Video on Demand platforms. And finally, it's the anniversary of the launch of HealthCare.gov. We check in.
09-29-2014-Marketplace- Protests in Hong Kong
Three days of pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong have nearly shut down the city. They've also made financial traders around the world nervous. Prices dropped on Asian and European exchanges today and U.S. stocks also opened lower. Why what happens in Hong Kong matters to U.S. and global markets. Meanwhile, Facebook has launched its rebuilt advertising platform. Atlas, as it's called, will let marketers use the knowledge and information the company has of its users to target them on mobile apps and websites. Why has it taken so long for Facebook to launch this, and what impact will it have on the company's competitors and users?
09-26-2014-Marketplace-Hello ello
Hundreds of flights were grounded in Chicago this morning after a fire at an air traffic control facility. O'Hare is the second busiest airport nation and home to hubs for both American and United airlines. How often do these types of shutdowns happen and what are the economic ripple effects across the country? And, social media upstart Ello made a lot of noise online this week by positioning itself as the anti-Facebook, promising no ads, no data mining, and to stop treating people as "a product that's bought and sold." Apparently, those are words many wanted to hear, as the site was welcoming 4,000 new users per hour midweek. But the question remains, how do you make any money if you aren't selling advertising and scraping user data?
09-25-2014-Marketplace-Virgin vacation
The mobile refineries the U.S. is bombing are so small they could almost fit in a pickup truck. We look at this microrefinery world and ask what the pros and cons are to blowing up ISIS's oil-refining stuff. Richard Branson has told 170 employees at Virgin's head offices to take as much vacation time as they'd like. We look at the behavioral angle — what are the forces at work when a boss tells his employees he trusts them implicitly with time off — and do people tend to take more or less leave? The Federal Aviation Administration is expected to announce today its approval of drones for Hollywood filmmaking. A number of video-productions firms have applied for permits for the camera-equipped drones. How will the FAA's decision affect the current provider of ariel shots in the industry — the more costly helicopters and airplanes?
09-24-2014- Marketplace- Walmart Turns To Banking
Walmart is branching out into the banking industry. It's partnering with the prepaid credit card provider Green Dot to offer checking accounts to anyone over 18 who passes an ID check. Walmart says the low cost service will not require a minimum balance and will not charge fees for overdrafts or bounced checks. So what's in it for Walmart? Also, the U.S. launched at least 47 Tomahawk missiles targeting militant strongholds in Syria Monday night. These are the same missiles the Pentagon had wanted to phase out the purpose of over the next several years. What are the costs of these missiles? And how long will they be maintained during this campaign?
09-23-2014- Marketplace- Gender Balanced Clinical Trials
Washington wants to put the brakes on U.S. companies that skirt taxes by merging with foreign companies. In the money world, we call that inversion. But will Jack Lew's newly announced policies really make a difference? Plus, the National Institutes of Health announced today that it will give $10.1 million in grants to more than 80 scientists to work on gender balanced clinical trials. At present, most researchers work exclusively with male lab animals. They say that the hormonal cycles of female animals could skew study results. How will this $10.1 million help reverse gender bias in science research? We investigate.

FILM REVIEW; An American in Japan, Making a Connection
Published: September 12, 2003
(Page 2 of 2)
Certainly we anticipate Mr. Murray's trashy sarcasm when he steps in front of a microphone, but we cringe slightly; if he whips Bryan Ferry's doomed narcissism around his throat like a scarf, the kind of thing he did when he invented this routine in the late 1970's on ''Saturday Night Live,'' he'll get his laugh and demolish the movie. Instead he renders the song with a goofy delicacy; his workingman's suavity and generosity carry the day. And ''Translation'' already has a joke of a hotel lounge singer, played by Catherine Lambert, who is used for a bigger laugh later.
A joy of filmmaking pervades the movie, and an instinctive understanding of the medium is evident. Sound is used so beautifully it takes your breath away; in a scene where Bob carries the dozing Charlotte to her room, the hotel corridor is gently dusted with aural density; the noise of air conditioners and fluorescent lights becomes a part of the milieu.
The director is more than ably complemented by her sound designer, Richard Beggs, as well as the cinematographer Lance Acord and the editor Sarah Flack. All of their skills can be glimpsed in a scene that ends with Bob and Charlotte fleeing a karaoke bar as a friend fires a toy pistol that shoots lighted pellets at them, the gun's rat-a-tat fading into the jangling of a pachinko parlor.
The movie conveys dislocation and the hungers it causes more than just visually. Perhaps because of that, ''Translation'' exists more as a film rendering psychological colorations than as a script. Obviously, Ms. Coppola placed all her trust in her actors. Anna Faris, who barely registers in the ''Scary Movie'' pictures -- and she's the star -- comes to full, lovable and irritating life as a live-wire starlet complicating Charlotte's life. Ms. Faris has already had work; this movie will secure her a career.
But as a result of Ms. Coppola's faith, this is really Mr. Murray's movie, and his respect for his director couldn't be more visible.
In the handful of films she has done -- including her short, ''Lick the Star'' -- Ms. Coppola has shown an interest in emotional way stations. Her characters are caught between past and future -- lost in transition. Perhaps her films are a kind of ongoing metaphorical autobiography, but no matter. The important point is that there's a lot up there on the screen, plenty to get lost in.
''Lost in Translation'' is rated R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian). It has sexual content as well as strong language and alcohol consumption.
Written and directed by Sofia Coppola; director of photography, Lance Acord; edited by Sarah Flack; original music by Kevin Shields; sound designer, Richard Beggs, production designers, Anne Ross and K. K. Barrett; produced by Ms. Coppola and Ross Katz; released by Focus Features. Running time: 102 minutes. This film is rated R.
WITH: Bill Murray (Bob Harris), Scarlett Johansson (Charlotte), Giovanni Ribisi (John), Anna Faris (Kelly) and Catherine Lambert (Jazz Singer).

Good guy looking for a great girl!
First off..... I'm ready for a relationship. After so many years of being a bachelor, I believe I'm ready. I want that feeling of falling in love, being distracted at work because I cant stop thinking of someone..... the "head in the clouds" feeling. Ok, I'm 37, soon to be 38, never been married, and I have no kids. I have a good job in the semiconductor/microchip industry, live alone in Harbor City, and I'm looking for someone nearby to go out with, have coffee, drinks, dinner, dancing, movies, beach walks, anything fun! I like going to the gym at least 3 times a week, like to keep active with friends, playing sports and getting into rec leagues (softball, basketball, ect), I love watching sports (football!), reading, playing cards (Texas hold em!), love to travel....Anywhere! I'm very close with my family. My brother actually met his wife on this website! So I've seen it work. I'm looking for a woman that's likes some of the same things I like, but whether or not you like sports is really not important to me. I want someone who will want to go out, someone that likes getting dressed up. I want to meet my bestfriend, but not have it be a guy!! I have enough guy friends. I want to meet a woman that makes me feel like the luckiest guy alive.

Race Director To Run Boston Marathon For Team MR8
Boston Strong
BOSTON (CBS) — The finish line was a crime scene. More than 5,500 runners were stopped on the course and their safety was Dave McGillivray's top concern.
"A police officer stopped me and said, 'where are you going?' and I said I'm going up to the finish line and he said no you're not."
McGillivray didn't go home for two days as the investigation unraveled. Eventually, he completed the race.
He ran his 41st Boston Marathon 11 days after the race – a personal victory – but he knew something was wrong.
"I go out to run and I feel like I'm running at altitude for the first ten or fifteen minutes," he said.
A cat scan revealed the problem – a severe blockage in the arteries around his heart and doctors couldn't operate.
"I really thought for the first time in my life, that I only had a short period of time left," he said.
The plan? better nutrition, medication, less stress and more sleep.
He's followed it religiously, losing 27 pounds and lowering his cholesterol by 70 points.
"I spent my whole life working really hard at being fit. I didn't work at being healthy because I thought one meant the other and I was totally wrong," he said.
Now fit and healthy, McGillivray's taking on a new challenge – running the marathon for charity.
The father of five has an 8-year-old son. In honor of Martin Richard, he's joined Team MR8.
"It makes the accomplishment that much more meaningful," he said.

Ramsey keeps beating the odds
Terry Ramsey walked into a nearly empty room in an Ohio child services center. His mother -- and a child welfare supervisor -- was there waiting for him. Terry only saw his mother, who struggled with alcoholism, occasionally.
Terry, just 12 at the time, walked into his visitation wearing a smile and a bruise.

Simmons Arboretum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Simmons Arboretum is a 10-acre (40,000 m2) arboretum in Madison, Mississippi, USA. It is city-owned, a work in progress, and open to the public. It is located at the eastern end of St. Augustine Drive south of the road at 32°26′57″N 90°04′28″W / 32.449285°N 90.074362°W.
The Arboretum was created from land donated to the city by Dr. and Mrs. Walter Simmons, and has evolved from unimproved land to a nature walk. Nearly a mile (1.6 km) of walking trails now exist, and plants have been identified and cataloged. Ongoing plans include further design, planting, and labeling of the species.[1]

Member Valentina Caniglia received the Best Cinematography Award at the 2015 Louisiana International Film Festival for her work on the film Madeleine's Oil. The film is available to watch on Vimeo. She also was the cinematographer for Trifles for a Massacre, which premieres at Cannes in May.
Member Carolina Ravassa was a production assistant and singer in the satirical #MakeItFair music video that calls for equal pay in the arts and entertainment world. The video involved a cast and crew of more than 70 women, underscoring the wealth of female talent that often goes untapped. #makeitfair is a call for gender equality in the stories we tell, the wages we earn, and the future we shape. You can read more about the project on its website.
Elizabeth's Precious Kitty, co-produced by members Michele Baldwin (who also stars) and Tony Wilkes, will make its world premiere at Theater for the New City. This wonderfully titillating, sensual, fun, erotic, three-person modern day farcical play promises to shock and entertain the audience. The show runs May 7-17 and tickets can be purchased online.
Business & Employment News Network interviewed member Jen Rudin about her experiences as a casting director. The interview focuses on Jen's experiences with women and diversity in casting. It's available for viewing online. Jen is also the author of Confessions of a Casting Director.

Leah is the president of Triton Creative Group, an entertainment agency specializing in music supervision and licensing for Film, TV, and Advertising.

The film is based on Tove Jansson's original comic strips written for London Evening News in 1955. The film premiered in London Film Festival in October 2014 and has been sold to over 40 countries for theatrical distribution. The film was received extremely well in Finland during the autumn 2014, it was just released theatrically in Switzerland, in France and in Japan. The English are to launch the film in May with 250 copies. Hanna Hemila is the producer, co-director and co-writer of the film.

I was intrigued and puzzled by a player who's rating exceeded 2500 - he was the 11th highest rated player on this site, until he timed out and I won.I later found his account was closed due to cheating. How was he caught? I never think about cheating, it's now that playing chess is about. Losing teaches me how to be a better player. If I cheat, I dont' learn how to improve my game.
oops *not
The staff prefer that all discussion of cheating is conducted in this group:
Please don't post cheat related posts in the main forum. There is a cheat forum/group designated for this :)
This is one of the reasons that I only play OTB...face to face, man-to-man. No possibility of having another laptop computer running with a top level chess program to consult.
Besides, in my opinion, half of the fun of playing chess is seeing the body language of the opponent...blood, sweat and tears.
For example, don't you just love to see the facial expression and body language of an opponent when you take their queen and they weren't expecting that?
I am by no means a sadist. And, I don't like it at all when the onus is on me. Saying that...always remember...chess is, first and foremost...a "people" game.

These three women spent fifteen years together with a consistent commitment to bringing energy, excitement and soul power to live performances, and cutting-edge innovation to a series of classic albums until 1976, when they separated without fanfare to pursue individual goals and aspirations. Thirty-two years later, with the release of a brand new Verve Records album (featuring such top notch producers as Lenny Kravitz, Gamble & Huff, and Wyclef Jean), the aptly titled Back to Now, Labelle is back on center stage. Formed out of the merging of two Philadelphia/New Jersey-based groups in 1960, Patti LaBelle & The Bluebelles were imaginative and innovative from the start, choosing to interpret standards and classics such as "You'll Never Walk Alone," "Danny Boy" and their ultimate showstopper "Over The Rainbow" with soaring vocals and unique harmonies. Following their '61 hit, "I Sold My Heart to the Junkman," the original quartet toured extensively, bringing audiences to their feet at such venues as The Apollo in New York, The Uptown in Philadelphia and The Regal in Chicago. Signed to Atlantic Records by legendary executive Jerry Wexler, the group cut two albums (the first of which included their version of "Groovy Kind Of Love") without major chart success. With the departure of Birdsong to join The Supremes, the remaining three were in need of a radical change to survive changing musical times as the `70s dawned. Recalls Sarah Dash, "I wrote to Vicki Wickham [the producer of the British television show, Ready Steady Go! on which the group had appeared in 1965] and told her we needed management. She came to a show we did at The Apollo. We knocked the audience down to the ground that night! She said, `I have some ideas...' Wickham brought Kit Lambert and Chris Stamp (the management team for The Who) of London-based Track Records and the group signed with the label, moving to the U.K. for a period of nearly six moths, trying different musical concepts and approaches at Wickham's suggestion. Notes Patti, "What we were doing was kinda corny. We knew we needed to make a big move. I was afraid of change...but when it happened, it was a welcome change." For Nona, "It was time to get out of the old and into the new. I'm always looking for change so I was excited and interested in discovering something new." When the newly-named trio Labelle returned to the U.S., the bouffant wigs were replaced with Afros, sequined gowns with jeans. Their 1971 debut set for Warner Brothers included material such as The Rolling Stones' "Wild Horses" and Carole King's "You've Got A Friend" as well as tunes by Laura Nyro and new compositions by all three group members. The same year, Labelle teamed with Nyro for her groundbreaking album It's Gonna Take A Miracle, produced by Kenny Gamble & Leon Huff, which featured much-loved songs of the `50s and `60s. A national tour opening for The Who was followed by a second Warners album (Moonshadow) and by the time Labelle signed with RCA in 1973 (for the one-off Pressure Cookin' album), the trio had traded in jeans for silver space suits and feathers. Working with New York designers Larry LeGaspi and Richard Erker, Labelle visually bridged the chasm between R&B and glam rock. Labelle's stage show was revamped: audiences were treated to Patti and Nona flying down from the ceiling and Sarah rising from the floor, bringing a combination of drama, power and high octane soulful vocalizing to the most diverse of crowds, culminating in a SRO show at New York's Metropolitan Opera House in 1974. That year, Labelle signed with Epic Records. Working with famed producer Allen Toussaint in New Orleans, the group created a breakthrough album with Nightbirds, spurred on by the across-the-board international success of the hit single "Lady Marmalade" (covered in 2001 by Christina Aguilera, Mya, Lil' Kim and Pink). Whether on Rock Concert or Soul Train, in Rolling Stone or Jet," Labelle's futuristic blend of soul and rock found favor with audiences coast-to-coast. Featuring a number of tailor-made, distinctive compositions by Hendryx (such as "Going Down Makes Me Shiver" and "Messin' With My Mind"), two strong albums in the form of 1975's Phoenix and 1976's Chameleon followed. As all three agree, "Everyone had different directions they saw for themselves...". Patti, Nona and Sarah forged individual pathways. Always remaining friends and staying in touch, the trio came back together in 1995 to record the No. 1 dance music hit "Turn It Out" for the movie, To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything, and came together in 1999 (with Cindy Birdsong) to receive a prestigious R&B Foundation Pioneer Award. After Nona found a song that was a tribute to civil rights leader Rosa Parks, "I asked Pat about us doing it as a group. Pat's been talking about us getting back together for thirty years! I said, `we should either stop announcing it...or do it!'" For Patti, the idea of coming back together to record and tour was all about timing: "Every time it came up, I was working. I knew it was long overdue but each time, I was not ready to do it and I had so many things on my plate. My manager Damascene Pierre Paul kept asking me to do do this; he was begging me and finally, I gave in. Then I said, `I don't want to half-step...I will make time to do this." Adds Sarah, "We'd been talking about it and we had a meeting in 2007 to see what we could put in motion. We never did a farewell tour. We just stopped. This is a way of bringing completion for the fans who were with us from the beginning."
The result of what Nona likes to call the trio's "re-ignition" is a bold new album which embodies everything Labelle has ever been. With the group's ever-distinct harmonies and high octane vocals, LaBelle, Hendryx and Dash bring something new and fresh to their latest work. Producers Lenny Kravitz, Gamble & Huff and Wyclef bring out the best in the trio. "I had just seen Kenny and Leon receiving their induction into The Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame and Pat performed "If You Don't Know Me By Now," recalls Sarah. "I called Kenny and asked if he would meet with us." Nona brought Kravitz to the table: "We're friends and admirers of each other's work. We talked to him about the idea of us getting together and invited him to a session. He showed up that day at 5:00 and we haven't stopped working since."

M. Spio Pens a Love Story Focusing on Southern Charm and Racial Barriers, in New Book
Miami Beach, Fla.
The past can be haunting, especially for Carmine. After trying to escape, he finds himself face-to-face with everything he was looking to erase.
M. Spio provides a love story that breaks down the barriers of race in a heartwarming tale of a Klansman's son seeking redemption and forgiveness of the past and a patient, forgiving African American woman in "A Song for Carmine."
Carmine is faced with the demons of his past and must make life-altering decisions in order to find a life worth living.
Set in the Deep South in the Appalachian Mountains, Carmine faces the challenges of an interracial love, an alcoholic father and learning how to forgive. Spio wrote this book to remind others that love can solve anything.
"When we hold on to the past, we take on other people's pain and make them ours; letting go is the only way to gain it all," Spio said.
