It's a tongue twister, but it's true. Eric Fischman likes to fish for big, fast fish. "Tuna are the hardest to catch since they are built like torpedoes, so we spend hours and hours and days and days trying to snag one," says the MFS Growth fund manager, who enjoys searching for the elusive Atlantic bluefins with his two teenagers east of Cape Cod on the family's 28-foot boat.
During the week, Fischman trolls for blue chips like Apple aapl 0.93681482957943% Apple Inc.

"We try to figure what a company is going to earn over the next five years, how fast they are going to grow, and how long they are going to be able to continue to grow," he says. Fischman wants to catch the ones whose stock prices don't fully reflect their long-term prospects.
Investors seeking a "straightforward growth fund are in good hands" at MFS Growth (MFEGX), according to Morningstar. Over five years, the $5.3 billion fund has returned an average of 2.5% annually, and for 10 years, 10%. Over both time periods, MFS Growth's gains put them in the top quintile of all large-cap growth funds. The fund carries a 5.75% front load, but an expense ratio of 1.09%.

Like some of its rivals, however, the fund has found itself running against the tide, or the market's recent obsession with dividends. As of Oct. 10, it was up 18.25% for the preceding year, trailing the Standard & Poor's 500's torrid 22.59% rise. "Our lagging the index was due to our underweight of dividend-yielding stocks and mega-caps, which did well because everyone was afraid the world was coming to an end," Fischman explains. He has no intention of changing course. Growth, he says, should continue to top value because growth doesn't include as many financial stocks, and large-cap should benefit from its position as a safe port for nervous investors.

Fischman searches for high-quality companies with good balance sheets and profits growing at an above-average rate that's sustainable for the next five years. He's most interested in outfits that have a unique product, service, or intellectual property, which gives them pricing power. He also wants a management with a proven track record, an equity stake, integrity, and a history of using shareholders' funds wisely. MFS Growth's average market cap is $80.42 billion.
Where does he see these attributes? More than a quarter of the fund is in tech stocks, and his largest holdings are Apple and Google (GOOG), both of which have soared in 2012. In Apple's case, growth will come from iPhones and iPads, whose popularity still is underappreciated by the market, based on a recent multiple of 12 times consensus 2013 earnings. "We are going to see a new tablet—the iPad Mini—and a new television," he says. Apple, up 58% this year, also sits on a pile of cash.
Google, which has risen 15% this year, is relatively inexpensive at $744.56, or 15.3 times earnings, given its longtime double-digit growth rate, notes Fischman. "The worry is that they are going to throw money at acquisitions that haven't made a lot of money, such as YouTube, but the search business is great," he says. His costs are roughly $130 to $190 a share.

More investor support should help media stocks like News Corp. (NWS), he adds. The shares, which trade at about 14.6 times forward estimates, should go higher as the separation of its publishing unit from its film and television properties approaches. (News Corp. is the parent of Barron's.) He started building a position when it was trading between $15 and $18 a share. It recently hit $24.34.
"News Corp.'s complexity scared investors. It is in publishing, film, and cable, and it is international, so it is difficult to value," he says. The split makes it easier to value.
"Publishing is a cash cow that doesn't grow much. Broadcasting is growing internationally, and retransmission rules have come into effect that allow News Corp. to charge cable systems every month for content," he says. Those contracts are multiyear and include annual price increases. The company should be able to grow earnings and cash flow at double-digit rates for the foreseeable future. He declined to comment on his plans for the stock post-split up.

"I've trimmed it 10 times over the last decade," he says, but it's still attractive at $72.55, or 34.7 times forward earnings. The company's ubiquitous relay towers provide a vital link to the growing demand for cell phones. Plus, newcomers find it tough to enter the field because of high capital investment costs and the time it takes to win approval to place a tower.

The credit-card outfit Visa has a similar story, says Fischer. Double-digit growth is expected as consumers opt for alternative forms of payment. Visa is the financial connection between banks and retailers. It has high barriers to entry and needs relatively little capital. He bought more shares after they were hammered too much on concerns about the regulation of interchange fees and fell to the low $70s.

Selling at 16 times forward earnings, at $43.09 a share, it's likely to post double-digit growth for the next five years. The Sands gets 50% of its revenue from Macau, where it's slated to open a new casino shortly. This is a mass-market rather than a VIP business.
The stock has been hit by wariness about China's slowing economic growth. But Fischman doesn't think China's long-term prospects have weakened, or its taste for gambling. "Their balance sheet is in much better shape because they have built all of their casinos. So, the debt has fallen; they pay a dividend, and are buying back stock," he notes.
It's just the kind of big, fast fish he loves to haul into the boat.

Publisher's Description
What might the right motives be? In Prayer: A Holy Occupation Oswald Chambers shares his heart's desires in prayer to help you: know Jesus better, to discern His will, and to make Christ's will your own.
This is not merely a pray harder" book, but editor Julie Ackerman Link has carefully selected a collection of Oswald Chamber's insights to enrich your prayer life. As the author of the all-time bestselling devotional, My Utmost for His Highest, Chambers brings you a treasure-trove of wisdom and insight.
Author Bio
In 1911 he founded and became principal of the Bible Training College in Clapham, London, where he lectured until the school was closed in 1915 because of World War I. In October 1915 he sailed for Zeitoun, Egypt (near Cairo), where he ministered to troops from Australia and New Zealand as a YMCA chaplain. He died there November 15, 1917, following surgery for a ruptured appendix.
Although Oswald Chambers wrote only one book, Baffled to Fight Better (since updated and titled Our Ultimate Refuge), more than thirty titles bear his name. Mrs. Chambers, a court stenographer, compiled the rest of her husband's published works from her verbatim shorthand notes. For half a century following her husband's death she labored to give his words to the world. My Utmost For His Highest, his best-known work, has been continuously in print in the United States since 1935 and remains in the top ten titles of the religious book bestseller list with millions of copies in print. It has become a Christian classic.

Time To Stop Ignoring That Check Engine Light Written by admin Monday, 02 July 2012 14:10 A newly released study on vehicle repair costs throughout the country has revealed that too many drivers are still ignoring their check engine warning lights for far too long, which can lead to much costlier repairs later on down the road. Published by CarMD.com, a website offering diagnostic tools and tips for proper automotive repair, the study shows the most expensive places in the country for auto repairs, and the most common issues that bring vehicles into the shop. More than 163,000 repairs related to the "check engine" light were analyzed from January 1 to December 31, 2011. The warning light has been standard issue on all cars since 1996, and covers 80% of all engine systems in a car, alerting drivers about problems that affect emissions output and drivability. Repairs for components outside of the scope of its onboard diagnostics, like tires, brakes, fan belts, and hoses were not involved in the study. Topping the list as the most expensive state to service a car was Wyoming, with an average cost of $389.18, which was 17% higher than the national average. A number of factors led to this dubious distinction, including harsh weather and high altitude, which can do serious damage to an engine's essential systems. More indirectly, the lesser populated and expansive state also features fewer repair facilities that can be a trek for residents to make it out to. This can lead to drivers ignoring lesser repair issues, instead waiting until serious and expensive damage is done to their cars. The high number of catalytic converter repairs is a direct example of this. These repairs are the second most common in the state, and are both expensive and easily preventable. Only through neglecting small and inexpensive maintenance, like replacing oxygen sensors, will a catalytic converter need repair. Through proper care, catalytic converter repair work should be a rarity. Rounding out the rest of the top 5 most expensive states were Utah, California, Montana, and Arizona. Every state with a cost above the national average was located on the western side of the country, where a high amount of airborne dust can do serious damage to an engine's components. Replacing air filters and sensors can be an expensive fix. States from the Midwest and New England featured the cheapest rates, with Indiana having the lowest overall cost in the country, just $283.95. When taken as a whole, however, the costs of repairs are trending downward. The overall average cost of check engine light related repairs in 2011 was $333.93, with $215.32 for parts and $118.61 for labor, 6% less than the year before. When compared to 2010, 40 states saw their average drop, with only Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, and the District of Columbia experiencing an increase. Most of the decrease comes from a dramatic decrease in labor costs, and a general constriction of the automotive industry through the year. To try to counteract this, costs for parts have been steadily on the rise. 1/2 Time To Stop Ignoring That Check Engine Light Written by admin Monday, 02 July 2012 14:10 The single most common repair associated with check engines lights across the country was replacing a faulty oxygen sensor. In Wyoming alone, more than 10% of all repairs were because of oxygen sensors. As such a small and seemingly insignificant component, this warning is often ignored until it becomes a serious issue. Problems with these sensors can reduce fuel economy by as much as 40%, and can lead to serious engine harm that requires much more extensive repair to fix, such as catalytic converter failure. These study results demonstrate that most people still chose to ignore their check engine warnings, instead waiting until much more serious damage is inflicted on their vehicles before they bring them in for mending. This is a frustrating cause for concern, one that organizations like CarMD hope to raise awareness for. "Just as you map your trip and make your hotel or campsite reservations, it's important to check your vehicle's health and pay attention to little nagging problems like diminishing fuel economy, squeaky brakes and especially the pesky 'check engine' light," says Art Jacobsen, the Vice President for CarMD. "You will pay less and have peace of mind by getting your car looked at by your preferred mechanic on your own time and budget, versus being forced to make repairs when you're away from home and loaded down with luggage. Nothing will ruin a family vacation quicker than major car trouble when you are away from home." Proper maintenance is an essential component to owning an automobile. Neglecting to correct a minor flaw can eventually lead to serious damage that can cost thousands of dollars to repair. The check engine warning light is designed to give drivers an indication that something is amiss which, if not taken care of, can develop into a dangerous situation. If your vehicle's check engine light is on, and has been for days or weeks, you should have your vehicle checked out immediately, lest you find yourself broken down on the side of the road, or in an accident that can leave you serious injured or killed. If you or someone you know as been in an accident and are struggling through the financial burden of costly automobile repairs, you should seek help. Depending on the circumstances of your accident, you may be entitled to compensation to cover those bills. We at AA Accident Attorneys are able to provide our clients with the level of expert legal advice needed to get you what you are rightfully owed. Our Los Angeles accident lawyers can confidently represent you and the troubles that face you on California's dangerous roads, which can lead to serious automobile, motorcycle, boat, and truck accidents.

About the Compare Study Options tool
- If you get a search result saying "No data available", there may still be people studying in this area and at that study level. This is because results for searches that correspond to a small number of graduates or for which all students study at a single provider aren't shown, to avoid the risk of data for an individual being identified.
- Earnings are median salaries. This is the halfway point in the ranking of earnings – so not everyone has earned this amount. Half of graduates have earned more than this amount and half have earned less.
- Earnings are actual annual (gross) earnings, and do not take account of hours of work. This means earnings will be understated for any qualification/field of study where there are significant numbers of young graduates in part-time work.
- Earnings have been converted to 2012 dollars to adjust for inflation.
- All results are for young, domestic graduates. Young graduates range from 21 years or under for certificate-level qualifications, to 29 years or under for Doctorates. Graduates are only included in the results in those years where they spent at least three months in New Zealand.
- Earnings data only reflects graduates that have work as their main activity, with graduates in further training and on benefits excluded.
- The results show what graduates earned and did between 1 April 2010 and 31 March 2012 (the 2011 and 2012 tax years).
- The percentage of graduates in each destination may not add up to 100%. In accordance with Statistics New Zealand's data confidentiality requirements, the underlying values are randomly rounded to +/-2 of their actual value.

Pastors' Greeting
Welcome to Sandpoint United Methodist Church. We are delighted that you are visiting us and hope that you will return again and again.
Our mission and the mission of the United Methodist Church is to "make disciples of Christ for the transformation of the world." That's a fancy way of saying that we invite you to share our faith, and that we are convinced that this world we all call home will be a different and better place if we place our trust in Jesus Christ.
We do not claim to have all the answers. In fact, we are a little concerned about those that do. The God that we serve and worship is beyond our understanding and we are on a lifelong journey together to know God better. We invite you to join us on that journey.
"Open hearts, open minds, and open doors" is the United Methodist credo and we are constantly trying to live into that credo as a church family. The Sandpoint United Methodist Church has served Sandpoint for more than 100 years. We stand on the shoulders of those who have gone before and look to a future full of hope and promise for our church and our community.
This website provides a sampling of our ministries and programs.
Join us as we CONNECT, GROW, SERVE and SHARE!
Grace and Peace to you in the Name of Jesus Christ!
Pastors Stan Norman & Gerri Harvill

Every donated dollar counts
United Way luncheon set for Oct. 17.
Whether you toss a couple bucks into a collection tub at a free-will donation soup supper or agree to have money withdrawn from your pay check on a weekly basis, each dollar donated to the Gothenburg chapter of United Way makes a difference.
"We really appreciate every person who donates," said Karla Blase, local United Way president. "Each one is a big part of why Gothenburg's United Way is a success."
The annual campaign kicks off this weekend with a luncheon at the Gothenburg Senior Center on Sunday, officially opening the drive to raise this year's goal of $24,100.
"The last couple of years have been very good," Blase said, noting that United Way achieved last year's goal of $24,000. "We still have to work really hard but people here are so generous."
Nearly all of the money raised in Gothenburg is distributed between nine agencies.
Blase said administrative expenses, including national dues, total less than $1,000.
The rest goes directly to the agencies that touch the lives of residents young and old ranging from the Senior Center to Building Blocks Child Care Center and Preschool, she said.
Four United Way agencies serve only local people. The Senior Center, Gothenburg/Brady Ministerial Association, Building Blocks and Gothenburg GED program are based right here in town, Blase said.
The others reach across the county, including Gothenburg.
Blase said the One-to-One program based in Lexington has been dropped from the list this year after larger funding programs for the child abuse prevention service fell through.
"It kind of makes you stop and think about needs," Blase said.
During October and November, United Way board members approach local businesses for donations.
Blase said about a quarter of the annual funding comes from this part of the campaign.
Baldwin Filters, she said, has always been a strong United Way supporter, making up another quarter of the year's total.
The rest comes from various fund-rasing activities and

We did not bring boots, but they were not needed for this beautifully planned, well graded walk in Connemara National Park. Well marked--basically impossible to get lost. Free parking and admission. There was a nice tea room and picnic area with a playground for kids. We loved seeing the lambs, colts and kids along the trail.
We enjoyed every moment of being here -- great views and breathtaking panoramas. Lovely place to spend your time in. Make the most of it.
This was the highlight of our visit. Exquisite views, breathtaking scenery. We enjoyed every moment here. Well marked, and good maps. Absolute must-go.
The connemara national park is just beautiful and you do not even have to walk very high up to have a nice view over the sea and the hills.
The quiet, the pubs with Irish songs, the landscape, the Atlantic Ocean so near, Mike taking me around to see the sights, the hospitality of some girls at a hotel in the centre of the town.
This is a beautiful area to walk and hike so we did a few short walks. The maps were accurate and helpful and the trails were well marked.
Great links course, not too challenging and even though it was open week it wasn't too busy. The bar food was also good .
Not being a keen walker, I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the walk up Diamond Hill. The views were spectacular. It took us around 4 hours to complete the round trip. Walking sticks would have been helpful. Remember to take snacks and water and your camera.
A very informative centre, with interesting displays on history of the local area. It was very clean and tidy with good tea rooms which had a covered area outside to sit if the weather is not great.
The Connemara Walking Center does not exist anymore. The Diamond Hill trail obviously has not disappeared:-). Go directly to the Connemara National Park visitors centre at the entrance of Letterfrack (coming from Clifden on N59). Go early in the morning because the trail is very busy in August. There are 3 different trails, the longest brings you to the top...

The shade is amazing yeah, but let me tell you about the longevity of it.
I ate a burger wearing this lipstick and since I saw a little bit of product on the actual food and felt like it might have smudged a bit, I went to reapply it...but it stayed all perfect, the color didn´t fade, no smudges! But what surprised me the most was that after some time I tried to lipprint my hand (you know what I mean) and it didn´t leave a stain at all. That was very impressive. It is also very comfortable formula, not dry, not greasy...I love it. It also smells nice to me, it has this soft bubblegum-ish/fruity smell. 10/10 recommend.

This is the PERFECT classic red. It's blue toned and a pure red. It's not too light, not too dark and pure. It smells like candy, tastes like candy. Ughh! Just totally love it! It glides right on, isn't messy to apply. It's cheap and it didn't break on me.
The only thing I don't like about this lipstick is that after about 5 hours of wear, it dries up the lips and settles into the lines. It looks kinda nasty, but it's ok since I just reapply.

Fantastic lipstick! This is a true red, not too blue, and not too orange. Goes on smooth. Lasts a good 4 hours. Very comfortable on the lips. Very pleasant fruity smell (although some people absolutely hate it). And best of all, it is MATTE!

The perfect creamy, matte red lip colour! Not too much of an orange undertone. Dries to a solid colour but doesn't make your lips feel caked. Holds up well to eating/drinking (though will rub off onto items). Washes off lips cleanly without excessive scrubbing or permanent staining. As it starts to fade, lips retain red stain, so it's a very subtle fade.

The fact that i have been wearing this lipstick non-stop lately tells me that i honestly looooove it. It is a totally true, bright, red (olivish complexion) and looks totally....happy on me. Yeah, it transfers like CRAZY on anything you eat or drink, but this lipstick looks awesome as it fades; a slightly rich stain is left behind. No more drying or hydrating than any other drugstore lipstick. The upsides are: the shade, the smooth formula, and the way it fades from the lips. Try it if it is ever on sale.

I bought this lipstick with the hopes that I've finally found a red that matches to my skin tone. Unfortunately while it did match, less than an hour passed before it started flaking off. Stay away from water and foods while wearing this lipstick because after eating, you wont be wearing lipstick anymore. A nice lipstick if you have time to touch up very often.

It's a lovely color, stays well, and it does not dry out lips. It's an orange red, not a blue-red, which looks best with my skin tone. Overall it's a great matte lipstick, it's just not for me. I'd recommend.

This was my favorite lipstick for a long time! I still wear it occasionally. It is longlasting, comfortable on the lips, not too drying, etc. Works great with ELF's matte rich red pencil as a liner. I often see this compared to Revlon's 'Really red' matte, but in my experience this lippie is superior in color, texture, wear time, smell, and even packaging. It doesn't fade, bleed, crack, or anything like that! Two thumbs up.

I picked this up, trying to replicate that red, red lip from "Snow White and the Huntsman." Unfortunately, I think the fluorescent lights at Target tripped me up, because this did not seem true red when I got home; it seems rather coral-y on my complexion. I may use it up as a stain, but the actual color is a bit garish on me so the search continues.

Jump seen in Florida home foreclosures
Published: Tuesday, July 10, 2007 at 11:36 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 10, 2007 at 11:36 a.m.
Home foreclosures in Florida rose 5 percent in the second quarter of 2007, according to a Pennsylvania-based research firm.
Lee County saw the greatest increase at 28 percent, according to Default Research Inc. Clay County defaults declined by nine percent. Data for Marion County was not immediately available.
In a press release, Serdar Bankaci, president and CEO of Default Research, attributed the increase to speculators leaving the market by abandoning their properties.

Thanks for correcting the address (I had forgotten all about it). Hopefully, one of these days, I'll go out there and see if there's any graves that need adding.

Effie May Searcy
While photographing a grave today, I found what I beleive to be, a small gravestone for Effie May. While it as only the initials EMS, it is next to her mother's large gravestone. Apparently the mowers did closer weed eating and may have brought it to the surface. I have posted it to the memorial you created for her, as well as a photo of it next to her mother's stone.

Nora Worley FAG 71614521
I have looked several times for Nora Worley. Felts Memorial is divided into several sections and there are surveys done of the cemetery that list memorals in sections and rows. I can usually find the memorials using these surveys. However, since Nora's DOD is rather recent she does not show up in these surveys.If you could contact the funeral home or the cemetery office and get them to tell you which section and row and let me know, I will search it out for you. Make sure to get a section name and row number. There is another numbering system at this cemetery that I can not corrolate to a physical location.

Hi Grandma,
I was out at the cemetery today and DID find your request. I noticed that someone sent a message that they couldn't find it. She doesn't have a stone yet so it's just a small marker. I tried to clean it as best I could but it's still a little dirty. I'll post it either tonight or tomorrow.

This is related to photo requests for interments in Memorial Oaks Cemetery in Houston, TX. I reside in Houston and I am "mowing the rows" taking photos. This is necessary because Memorial Oaks provides location info to only family. For photo requests to this cemetery to be filled, the complete plot location info is needed as there are more than 10,000 interments. 832-330-9226 local 281-497-2210 address 13001 Katy Freeway, Houston, TX 77079.

I BELIEVE this is the right gravestone for this memorial. The gravestone says R.C. "Tim". If this is not the correct gravestone, please let me know and I will delete the photo.
If you want this photo also uploaded for Ethel Chrisler, please create a memorial for her and request a photo. Thank you.

An efficient single nucleotide polymorphism assay to diagnose the genomic identity of poplar species and hybrids on the Canadian prairies
Abstract:Hybridization frequently occurs among poplars, both naturally and artificially, hindering identification. Over 32 million clonal poplars, predominantly hybrids, have been planted throughout the Canadian prairies over the past century, making confirmation of genomic identity important. We developed a genotyping assay that rapidly diagnoses four compatible Populus species (Populus balsamifera L. and Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh.: indigenous, Populus laurifolia Ledeb. and Populus nigra L.: exotics) and their hybrids found throughout this ecozone. First, we sequenced 23 genes from representative provenances of the four Populus species to discover single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Second, we developed and validated a medium-throughput genotyping assay of 26 diagnostic SNPs within these genes. We used this assay to genotype 198 trees from natural populations as well as 30 clones (pure species and hybrids), including those broadly distributed by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada's Agroforestry Development Centre since 1910. This suite of SNPs has the resolving power to correctly identify pure species and hybrids of Populus. We confirmed the identity of clones of well-documented origin, complex hybrids with exotic components, and paternity of open-pollinated progenies from breeding programs. This diagnostic tool should prove useful for efficient molecular fingerprinting of breeding material and for further studies of interspecific gene flow on the Canadian prairies.

What Would Jello Do? #16
Here is a BRAND NEW – What Would Jello Do! In this episode, Jello discuses recent protests that have not gotten major coverage in the media – like the Keystone Pipeline and the Prisoner Hunger Strikes.

Thoughts On Visit To Israel
So now I have been to Israel. I have also been to Palestine. At least I got a taste of the place, but not in the way I originally hoped.
Many people reading this know the uproar and complicated reasons my band, Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School Of Medicine pulled out of a July 2nd show scheduled in Tel Aviv. In many ways I really wish we had played. But I also share most of the boycott's supporters' feelings about Israel's government, the occupation, and ongoing human rights violations.
I hope people take the time to understand how deeply this has torn at the fabric of our band. The promoter in Tel Aviv lost thousands, and I am eating thousands more in lost and re-booked airfares that I have no idea how I am going to pay, or how I will pay my bills for the rest of the year. Real human beings got hurt here.
This whole controversy has been one of the most intense situations of my life—and I thrive on intense situations. But the rest of the band was not used to this. How fair was it to drag them in in the first place? This is not like fighting Tipper Gore and the LAPD, greedy ex-Dead Kennedys members or more-radical-than-thou thugs who think it's OK to put someone in the hospital for being a "sellout." I gradually felt like I had gotten in over my head sticking my nose into one of the longest and nastiest conflicts on earth. I'd gotten as close as I wanted to one of those Herzog movies like "Fitzcarraldo" or "Aguirre, the Wrath of God." A responsible leader does not go, "Hey, check out that big storm at the top of Mt. Everest. Let's go up anyway just to see what happens."
So with the roller coaster still in my stomach and my head, I flew solo to Israel instead. The mission: to check things out myself and hopefully at least get closer to some kind of conclusion on whether artists boycotting Israel, especially me, is really the best way to help the Palestinian people. The same idea as before, but sadly, no gig.
Flight hours are weird here. I've never seen an airport swarming with so many people at 4:30am. Same for all the people playing bumper cars with their luggage carts, jostling and cutting in front of each other in the long line for taxis. (more…)
Hooray for Occupy Wall Street!!!

What Would Jello Do: Meg Whitman Edition
And now it's time for another edition of What Would Jello Do.
Jello Biafra Writes An Open Letter To Barack Obama
(Jello Biafra's 1979 mayoral campaign against Diane Feinstein was the first I ever worked on, which probably says a lot. We're proud to publish his open letter to Barack Obama — jh)
My Friends (couldn't resist, I had to say it),
Here, by semi-popular demand, are the suggestions I sent to Obama's Change.gov site for citizen input. It veers from writing to Obama himself to writing for the people who may actually read this. A lot of these ideas may be familiar from my albums and spoken word shows. For the most part I stayed away from the big no-brainers covered by others, and from ideas he would never agree to in a million years.
I did not vote for him because of his record in Congress voting for the PATRIOT Act, the anti-immigrant wall, numerous corporate breaks and subsidies, the FISA bill legalizing all the NSA's illegal wiretapping, etc. Nevertheless I, too, felt moved by his speech in the park that night in Chicago, seeing Jesse Jackson cry and wondering how Martin Luther King, Jr would have felt. I can only imagine how much this would have meant to Wesley Willis.
And, yes, I am glad that the adult version of the Eraserhead baby and his pitbull pal were not handed the keys to the White House.
I guess that's why it hurts so much more when the guy we all wish we could hang out with when we see him on TV turns around and backs the wrong position on something important. We expect this from the Clintons and Bidens of the world, but it hurts more with Obama because he knows better. He even said so on the FISA/NSA spying bill that he so eloquently opposed before he changed his vote. His economic and national security teams so far lack anyone from the "change" side of the Democratic Party. Not a good sign.
If you have ideas or comments, don't just send them to me, send them to Change.gov! Even I have the audacity to hope that if one of these ideas penetrates up top, it is a chance worth taking. Tom Hayden is one of many who have pointed out that it is up to this movement to drive Obama, not the other way around.
Jello Biafra
Dear Mr. Obama,
Congratulations on your recent victory, and for helping build such a strong mandate for change. In that spirit, please do not forget the other aisle you need to reach across. All the relief and publicity for the middle class won't do anything for the 40-100 million Americans who are starving, unemployed or just plain poor.
You have gone out of your way to build a bridge to those of us fed up with war, pollution, inequality, corporate lawlessness and business as usual. You have energized a whole new generation who is far ahead of their elders in knowing what urgently needs to be done. I have never seen such an outpouring of heartfelt emotion, hope and support for an American politician in my life, and I remember Kennedy well. You are the first president in my lifetime to have a bona fide grassroots movement behind you and ready to rock. I hope those crowds' hope and urgency has penetrated deeply enough that you won't let that bridge be washed away.
I remember another person who had the audacity to exploit and toss aside people's hope, and his name is Bill Clinton. Democrats fail time and again when they shirk responsibility and settle for being dealmakers instead of leaders. As important as it is to find common ground and build consensus for change, our situation is so dire we cannot afford any more dealmakers. The people voted for a leader. Anything less risks breaking the hearts of an entire galvanized generation who may then decide it is not worth it to get involved and participate any more.
Strong medicine is needed. Here are some ideas:

PS3 Reviews
Brothers In Arms Hell's Highway Review PS3
Hell's Highway will have a hard time going up against Treyarch's Call of Duty: World at War this Christmas, but, like Sergeant Baker himself, it's going to put up a damn good fight.
Rock Band Review PS3
If you're planning plenty of get-togethers, Rock Band will provide more than enough enjoyment to warrant its price tag.
TNA iMPACT! Review PS3
With more variety in the roster, an improved move set and more game modes future TNA games could take the wrestling belt, but for now it'll have to make do with being a very worthy challenger.
The Last Guy Review PS3
If the idea of Pac-man surviving a monster invasion sounds good, add this to your growing PSN collection.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Review PS3
If you like the idea of messing with some storm troopers to the extent that it verges on Force-fuelled torture we recommend you give The Force Unleashed a look.
WipEout HD Review PS3
At £12 you've probably already made your mind up about WipEout HD, but in case you're on the fence we whole heartedly recommend you download it as soon as it hits the PlayStation Store.
FaceBreaker Review PS3
FaceBreaker has a lot going for it, from its superb visuals and style to the rather excellent character creation tool, but the button-mashing gameplay and easy exploits ruin all the good work.
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 Review PS3
Existing Tiger owners will have to weigh up if the additions this year are worth another purchase, but if you've been out of the game for a while there's no better time to return to the links.
Mercenaries 2: World in Flames Review PS3
Once you start blowing things up with massive explosions there's a game here that is worth a look, but it's criminally unpolished and as such will leave many gamers rather unsatisfied.

Product description
Benjamin Graham referred to it as his "margin of safety." Seth Klarman favors it over all other investment methods. Warren Buffett uses it to make millions for his investors. It's called value investing, and you can make it work wonders for your portfolio. All you need is money to invest, a little patience - and this book. Strategic Value Investing reveals everything you need to know to build a world-class portfolio using value investing as your north star. Written by experts on valuation and financial analysis, this comprehensive guide breaks it all down into an easy-to-implement process. The authors explain the ins and outs of determining when a stock is undervalued, then purchasing it and selling it for a profit when the rest of the world learns what you knew all along. With Strategic Value Investing, you'll learn how to: distinguish between the various measures of value, including going concern, replacement value, fair market value, book value, and intrinsic value; and identify undervalued companies before everyone else, and know what to look for, what to avoid, when to buy, and when to sell. The authors teach you how to establish a dispassionate value investing philosophy tailored to your needs. Equally important, they provide the tools you need to adhere to this often contrarian approach regardless of your emotions or crowd sentiment. Get in before the crowd - and get out when the price is right with Strategic Value Investing. Praise for Strategic Value Investing: "A book that has much the same character as a good value investor: calm, disciplined, with a grasp both of broad theory and of how to apply it." (John Authers, senior investment columnist, Financial Times). "This comprehensive look at valuation techniques is not only insightful, but can be easily put to use by individual and professional investors alike." (Charles Rotblut, CFA, Vice President, the American Association of Individual Investors). "Offers a sound fundamental perspective for those looking to deepen their analysis around stocks. A great resource for all types of value investors." (Heather Brilliant, CFA, global head of equity research at Morningstar and member of the CFA Institute Board of Governors). "This book is of Real Value! It updates the pioneering work of Ben Graham and Phillip Fisher, blending the valuation techniques of the masters (such as Warren Buffett) and provides institutional and individual investors the A to Z of value investing from a practitioner perspective." (John Maginn, CFA, EVP & CIO, Mutual of Omaha (retired) and coeditor of Managing Investment Portfolios). "An actionable road map for implementing a disciplined value investing strategy. Very much in the Ben Graham style. The sophisticated individual investor will find this comprehensive digest a continual and timeless reference." (Wallace Forbes, CFA, President of Forbes Investors Advisory Institute, Division of Forbes magazine). "Many books propose to help you learn how to become a better value investor. This one, which is bound to become a staple of every value investor's library, delivers on its promise." (Robert Powell, editor of Retirement Weekly and columnist of "MarketWatch").

Re "Hamas didn't break peace" (Letters, July 24): Barbara Candy believes thousands of rockets and mortars launched at Israel since August 2013 were peace overtures. There's been no peace since Hamas took over Gaza. Virtually every day since 2001, there have been rockets and mortar shells launched at Israel.
The disproportion is because Hamas fires RPGs, AK47s and rockets from hospitals, schools and private residences. Israel shields its citizens with the Iron Dome and bomb shelters, while Hamas uses its citizens to shield itself and weapons.
She claims Israel's army is the fourth largest. It's actually the 20th largest with 749,500 active duty and reserve. The fourth largest is India, with 4,768,407.
Until Hamas no longer exists, there will be no peace. From Hamas' charter: "Israel will rise and will remain erect until Islam eliminates it as it had eliminated its predecessors." There can't be negotiations when one side has sworn to kill the other

Description (OCR text may contain errors)
over a wide temperature range.
United States 2,996,467 ASPHALT-OIL-RUBBER COMPOSITION Harold Hawley, Frederick E. Arthur, and Garalrl Allen, lVIidland, Mich, assiguors to Dow Chemical Company, Midland, Mich, a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Filed Mar. 4, 1957, Ser. No. 643,885 1 Claim. (Cl. 260-285) This invention relates to asphalt modified by the addition of a rubber-petroleum oil plasticizer and to methods for the production of such asphalt.
Asphalts are characterized by a three-part temperature scale-a brittle range, a plastic range and a fluid range. For most uses, the plastic range is the useful one and his desirable that this range be as wide as possible. This range may be defined as extending from the brittle point to the softening point. Thus, it is desirable that an asphalt have a low brittle point and a high softening point.
Methods are known for lowering the brittle point of asphalt, as for example, by the incorporation of various oils or plasticizers. Unfortunately, however, these methods also lower the softening points. Likewise, methods are known for raising the softening point, the most commonly used one being that of blowing, i.e., blowing air through the liquid asphalt at a high temperature. Unfortunately, these methods also raise the brittle point. In short, methods are available for shifting the plastic range up or down the temperature scale but they have little or no effectiveness in expanding the plastic range.
Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide modified asphalts having useful plastic properties Another object is to provide asphalts having improved adhesive and cohesive properties. A further object is to provide processes for making the improved asphalts.
According to the invention, the above objects are achieved by incorporating into certain asphalts a modi- -fier comprising a petroleum oil and a synthetic rubber of the butadiene-styrene type as hereinafter described. In the compositions described and claimed herein all parts are by weight, exclusive of the water content, if any.
The amount of the modifier used may be varied widely, being generally in the range of about 2 to 20 percent of the final modified asphalt, and preferably in the range 5 to percent. Less than 2 percent produces only minor improvement in the properties of the product While more than 20 percent unnecessarily increases the cost of the product.
The ratio of butadiene to styrene in the rubber component of the modifier should be at least 60:40, and preferably at least 75:25. Ratios as high as 90:10 are satisfactory, particularly when low brittle point and high adhesive power are especially desired in the product. While the rubber may be in any physical form, such as crumb, milled sheet, molded slab, etc., the preferred form is a latex, especially a high-solids latex. This particular form is easy to blend with the oil; also the emulsified modifier thus obtained is easy to disperse in the asphalt. In order for the modifier to be a free-flowing fluid emulsion, the rubber emulsion used should be such that the oil-rubber modifier contains at least about 10 percent of water.
The oil component of the modifier should be a petroleum oil of viscosity about 50 to 800 Saybolt Universal seconds at 100 F. If the modifier is to be incorporated into the asphalt by the preferred method of stirring it into the hot, liquefied asphalt, a further limitation on the oil component is that it should have a flash point of at least about 400 F., and preferably 500 or more.
Patented Aug. 15, 1961 ing point but also low ductility and increased tendency to stain and bleed. On the other hand, high-rubber modifiers yield asphalts of high softening point, high ductility and lower tendency to bleed and stain but having the disadvantage of high viscosity when melted, thus making them difficult to work. Moreover, the rubber adds greatly to the cost of the final product. As a compromise between these opposing factors, we generally prefer an oil-rubber ratio of about 1:1 to 5:1, though other ratios may be used for special purposes.
While almost any asphalt can be improved by the addition of our modifier, we prefer to use blown, particularly catalytically blown, petroleum asphalt, since this particular type shows the greatest improvement from use of the modifier and is most useful for many purposes. Aparticularly valuable modified asphalt, useful as a combination adhesive-moisture barrier in laminations of paper, fabric and the like, is obtained by adding our modifier to a catalytically blown petroleum asphalt of softening point about to 250 F., preferably about 200 ,F. The preparation of such a product is illustrated by the following example.

MATERIALS PROCEDURE The modifier was prepared by stirring the rubber latex into the oil at room temperature. A uniform, free-flowing emulsion was quickly and easily formed.
The asphalt was heated to about 375 F., at which temperature it was quite fluid and could readily be pumped, stirred, or otherwise agitated. While the asphalt was maintained in such molten condition, the modifier was slowly added to it, effective agitation being maintained so that the modifier was quickly and uniformly dispersed throughout the asphalt. Agitation was continued for one hour after all the modifier had been added, in order to insure complete uniformity of the product.
The improvement in important physical properties obtained by addition of the modifier is shown in the following table.
able to continuous operation.
2,996,467 V i l The oil used in the preparation of the modifier of the invention readily swells the rubber component of the modifier. For this reason, if the oil is to be blended with the rubber in the form of latex and if the resultant modifier is to be stirred or otherwise mixed'into the asphalt without necessity for milling, the modifier must be added to the molten asphalt immediately after it is prepared. Otherwise, the oil swells the rubber into a sticky, gelatinous mass that is diflicult to handle and to disperse in the asphalt.
While we have described a batch process for preparing our modified asphalt, the process is readily adapt- In a continuous process the oil and latex may be continuously metered into the inlet of a centrifugal pump or other mixing device. The blended modifier may then be continuously metered into a stream of hot asphalt and mixed therewith by passage through an agitator device such as a pump or one or a series of constricted orifices in the pipeline or conduit carrying the stream of modified aspalt. Such a continuous process has the obvious advantages of reducing the size of or eliminating the need for mixing and/or heating kettles and of minimizing the time'lag between the preparation and use of the modifier.
The product of the above example is particularly useful in laminating, adhesive, sealing and waterproofing applications. By suitable variations in the modifier and asphalt used, improved asphalts useful in other applications may be obtained. Thus, paving asphalts are notably improved by addition of even minimal amounts of our modifiers; particularly in reduction of cracking due to low temperature brittleness and in improvement in the adhesion of the asphalt to the stone aggregate generally used.
While methods other than those illustrated above may be used to mix the modifier with the asphalt, other known methods are tedious, expensive and less effective. Thus, rubber and/or oil may be milled into asphalt or they may be dissolved in a common solvent and the solvent then removed. Still another method is to shred the rubber and then stir it, either alone or with oil, into the molten asphalt. None of these methods are satisfactory, however, from the standpoint of either cost or effectiveness. To obtain the maximum benefit from use of our oil-rubber modifier it is essential that the latter be fully and uniformly dispersed in and blended with the asphalt and we have found no other method which even approaches the effectiveness of that disclosed and claimed herein.
We claim:
A process for making modified asphalt comprising: (1) preparing a modifier, consisting essentially of an oil rubber emulsion, by intimately mixing about 1 to 5 parts by weight of a petroleum oil of about to 800 Saybolt Universal seconds viscosity at 100 F. and having a flash point of at least about 400 F. with one part of a butadiene-styrene rubber latex the solids of which contain about -80 percent by weight of butadiene to 20-40 percent of styrene, said latex containing sufiicient water to make the water content of the thus formed modifier at least about 10 percent by weight and (2) adding, slowly and with efiective agitation, said modifier to molten asphalt in such amount that the product contains about 2-20 percent by weight of the modifier.
