The Casual Vacancyby J. K. Rowling
Staff Pick
J. K. Rowling's new book is a little like Harry Potter — if Hagrid never came to collect Harry and instead the novel focused on the dysfunctions of the Dursleys and all their neighbors. That being said, The Casual Vacancy still possesses Rowling's uniquely addictive storytelling, and you'll soon find yourself needing to know what will befall the small town's inhabitants next. Though frequently dark, it has a quaint and charming quality that makes it the perfect book to curl up and read by lamplight while drinking tea on a winter's night.
Set in a tiny town in the English countryside, Pagford is populated with the unlikeliest of characters. It's the perfect setting for salt-of-the-earth, kind, community-minded, and compassionate folks. But you won't find such people here. Everyone has a secret; everyone has hidden motivations and desires which they will stop at nothing to satisfy. These are unseemly folks, each with his or her own particular array of distasteful traits. Throw in a newly vacant seat on the town's council, and you have fertile fields for every kind of backstabbing, manipulating, lying, and coercing imaginable. Yes, it's on.
Surprisingly, while racing through The Casual Vacancy (because I could not put it down), I was most often reminded of Barbara Vine (a.k.a. Ruth Rendell). Rowling's vision of her characters' emotions is razor sharp, and the clarity with which she understands their inner life is startling. You'd be hard pressed to find someone who could paint a psychological study better than Vine, but Rowling is certainly hard on Vine's heels here. Yes, her characters are unlikable (every single one of them), and yes, this is a tale of ugly people doing awful things, and yes, there is so much going on here that it takes a bit of effort to untangle all the threads. But this is one fantastic read, and it is so completely worth the effort. Rowling is, above all else, an amazing storyteller. Don't miss her gigantic leap into adult fiction; it is a thing of beauty underneath all the darkness.
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.
Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty facade is a town at war.
Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils... Pagford is not what it first seems.
And the empty seat left by Barry on the town's council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?
Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling's first novel for adults.
"On the face of it, Rowling's first adult book is very different from the Harry Potter books that made her rich and famous. It's resolutely unmagical: the closest thing to wizardry is the ability to hack into the amateurish Pagford Parish Council Web site. Instead of a battle for worldwide domination, there's a fight over a suddenly empty seat on that Council, the vacancy of the title. Yet despite the lack of invisibility cloaks and pensieves, Pagford isn't so different from Harry's world. There's a massive divide between the haves and the have-nots — the residents of the Fields, the council flats that some want to push off onto a neighboring county council. When Councilor Barry Fairbrother — born in Fields but now a middle-class Pagforder — dies suddenly, the fight gets uglier. In tiny Pagford, and at its school, which caters to rich and poor alike, everyone is connected: obstreperous teenager Krystal Weedon, the sole functioning member of her working-class family, hooks up with the middle-class son of her guidance counselor; the social worker watching over Krystal's drug-addled mother dates the law partner of the son of the dead man's fiercest Council rival; Krystal's great-grandmother's doctor was Fairbrother's closest ally; the daughters of the doctor and the social worker work together, along with the best friend of Krystal's hookup; and so on. Rowling is relentlessly competent: all these people and their hatreds and hopes are established and mixed together. Secrets are revealed, relationships twist and break, and the book rolls toward its awful, logical climax with aplomb. As in the Harry Potter books, children make mistakes and join together with a common cause, accompanied here by adults, some malicious, some trying yet failing. Minus the magic, though, good and evil are depressingly human, and while the characters are all well drawn and believable, they aren't much fun. Agent: The Blair Partnership.

ALBANY - Ahead of the 2014 legislative session, north country representatives are preparing and refining their goals and sharing their prognostications for the upcoming year.
Infrastructure repair, education reform and mandate relief top the list of priorities for Assemblyman Kenneth D. Blankenbush, R-Black River; Assemblywoman Addie D. Russell, D-Theresa; and state Sen. Patricia A. Ritchie, R-Heuvelton.
There is some disagreement among the three when it comes to public campaign financing, however.
Public financing of campaigns was recommended in a preliminary report from The Commission to Investigate Public Corruption, which was appointed by Gov. Cuomo in July under the 1907 Moreland Act and is expected to form a cornerstone of the governors anti-corruption initiative.
Im sure hes going to want to do something with campaign finance reform, Mr. Blankenbush said.
And while neither Mr. Blankenbush nor Sen. Ritchie are in favor of the measure, Mrs. Russell said that it would bring equality to state elections.
It would go a long way toward leveling the playing field. The average middle class person ought to have the ability to get into politics, said Mrs. Russell, who has supported public campaign financing in the past.
But Mr. Blankenbush is skeptical about the willingness of taxpayers to foot the bill for an initiative that he said would have a questionable effect on corruption in the state capital.
Im not sure taxpayers in the state of New York want to fund everyones campaign, Mr. Blankenbush said.
A similar initiative that has been in place in New York City for about 10 years has yielded 26 cases of campaign fraud, according to Mr. Blankenbush.
Instead, Mr. Blankenbush is advocating for four-year terms for members of the Assembly and term limits that would regulate how long those members could serve.
You cant be sitting there over 20 years, raising a lot of money because of being an incumbent, Mr. Blankenbush said. Three terms and youre out.
And for Sen. Ritchie, who, like her colleagues, is pushing for additional funding for education, the question of public campaign finance boils down to a question of priorities.
I dont believe we have the resources to put into campaigns rather than our schools, Mrs. Ritchie said.
All three representatives found fault with the states rollout of the Common Core initiative, which is intended to standardize curricula across the country and make students more competitive with those from other countries.
But representatives said that the state has pushed too hard too fast with the implementation of the program and are asking for additional time for teachers and students to adjust to the more rigorous standards.
Ive talked to many teachers, superintendents and parents, Mrs. Ritchie said. The information is great, we have to be able to compete, but we shouldnt be testing students on information theyre just learning about.
Much of the controversy over the Common Core rollout has centered around testing students at the higher standards even as the new curriculum has not yet been fully implemented.
More than 70 percent of north country students from third grade to eighth grade were not proficient in math or English language arts, according to tests given in the spring.
I think the goal of increasing our standards is long overdue but the State Education Departments implementation has been a failure, Mrs. Russell said. There are gaps in the material that our children are being presented and they are taking tests on material they havent been taught. This needs to be completely reevaluated and pushed out for at least two years instead of undermining their confidence and ability to learn.
Mr. Blankenbush also said that he was in favor of a gradual implementation of the Common Core.
It should be a two or three year period so we can gradually get into it, Mr. Blankenbush said.
The three representatives also said that mandate relief and infrastructure repair were high on their priorities list.
When the countys budget is somewhere in the neighborhood of 90 percent state mandates, we need to work on that, Mr. Blankenbush said.
According to Jefferson Countys 2014 adopted budget, more than 80 percent of the property tax levy is consumed by state-mandated programs.
As the three representatives look ahead to the start of the 2014 legislative session, an issue from last years session lingers.
The NY Secure Ammunition and Firearms Act of 2013 was passed at the very beginning of the legislative calendar. It became a very unpopular law in the north country and opposition to its regulations is still strong, according to Mr. Blankenbush.
Though a repeal of the law is unlikely at this time, Mr. Blankenbush said he believes the issue will play an important role in the 2014 election season.
Mr. Blankenbush and Sen. Ritchie both voted against the legislation, which expanded New York states gun control laws, while Mrs. Russell voted for it.
Mrs. Russell has defended her vote in the past, saying there were a number of components of the SAFE Act that deserved her support, including closing loopholes in background checks, stiffening penalties for those who make straw purchases for people not permitted to own firearms, and increasing penalties for killing first-responders.
Mrs. Russell said she supported the bill as a compromise and has been vocal in addressing its shortcomings.

Last week we shared the essential presents for style-savvy ladies, and today we're going to close out our gift-giving spectacular with an assortment of fabulous options for all the fashionable fellows out there! And who better to inspire our selections than Mr. Swoon-Inducer himself-the incredibly talented, outrageously adorable Ryan Gosling? Whether it's on-screen or off, this charming Canadian makes the entire Who What Wear office a wee weak in the knees, so we figured he'd be the perfect male muse for our guide. With this great guy in mind, we searched for gifts that are just as good as Gosling and happily found an amazing batch of items. From a cozy beanie to a must-have new album from The Black Keys, we've gathered a number of obsession-worthy picks that are universally appealing, so hopefully your holiday shopping is a cinch this year!
Rag & Bone City Case ($290)
We're not crazy about the idea of a man purse, but a chic and professional case that stores his computer and work essentials is an entirely acceptable accessory. The City Case by Rag & Bone is our top pick this season, thanks to its sturdy design and stylish mix of brown and black leather. Even better: its considerable size means it can double as an overnight bag too! Versatile and cool? Yes, please!
The Elder Statesman Bunny Echo Ribbed Cashmere Beanie Hat ($230)
If you'd like to give your guy a beanie this year, make sure it's the Elder Statesman Bunny Echo Ribbed Cashmere Beanie Hat. The high quality, uniquely soft blue cashmere elevates this typically utilitarian piece, making it a truly luxe and cozy fashion find he'll want to wear all winter long. If you'd like to snag a thriftier option, do check out J. Crew's Cashmere Beanie Hat ($58) too.
Nixon The Sentry Leather Watch ($550)
A nice watch can add some polish to any look and is an accessory he'll wear every day, which is why we believe it's important to invest in a truly luxurious option, like this one from Nixon. Designed exclusively for Barneys New York, this is one collaboration that happens to be perfect for you both-fashionable to you and cool to him! The minimalist, all-noir design gives the piece modern look, while the leather wrist strap lends itself to a comfortable fit, so it's an all-around winner in our book.
The Black Keys El Camino ($24) in Vinyl
For any guy who is a fan of The Black Keys-and let's be honest, they either are or they should be-you can expect to find the duo's newly released album, El Camino, high on their wish list. Sure, you can snag the CD or download it on iTunes, but we happen to think that the vinyl version would make for a more thoughtful and cool gift idea, don't you?
Zara Leather Ankle Boots($129)
They say the first thing you notice about a man are his shoes, so why not ensure he makes a great impression with Zara's Leather Ankle Boots! We love a lace-up boot and think this slightly worn-in version will definitely bring that sexy, rough-and-tumble element to all of his casual ensembles. He will look so good, it's practically a gift for you too!
UP by Jawbone Wristband + iPhone App ($99)
This wristband from UP by Jawbone would be a seriously cool gift for anyone, but we think the tech-savvy, health-oriented man in your life would especially get a kick out of it. The wristband works together with its iPhone app to help you live a healthier life by tracking your daily activity, sleep patterns, and even meals. It's even designed to vibrate when you have been inactive too long, reminding you that you need to move around. And that's not all! This amazing wristband also doubles as an alarm clock, which vibrates to wake you up at the best moment in your natural sleep just before your desired wake time. Do yourself and your man a favor and pre-order one today!
Polaroid Z340 Instant Digital Camera ($300)
If the man you're shopping for is always up on the latest technology, we've got the perfect gift idea to ensure you're on his "favorite" list this year: Polaroid's Z340 Instant Digital Camera. The latest generation of the Polaroid features a full-functioning digital camera and printer that transforms images into 3x4" photos instantly, so you can share them with friends and family right after you take them. We have a feeling this will be a hit come New Year's Eve!-Jessica Baker

A car accident damaged Jessica King's back and her doctors told her she cannot exercise unless it's in a pool. The injury prevents the stay-at-home mom from working so she and her husband can't afford a membership to a gym that has a pool.
So the only thing Jessica can control is her eating habits. She's lost fifty pounds since we met her and, since the doctor's orders, she's only gained four back.
"I can't really do anything. He told me I can't really walk on pavement especially for long periods of time because of the pressure that it will put on my back. I've been able to still control what's going in my mouth. I've still been able to look at the labels and watch the sodium, the fat, the carbs, the sugar," Jessica says.
Jessica's proud of her accomplishments but says fighting the anxiety of medical bills and running a household doesn't make it easy.
Regardless, she says she's proof that you can fight fat with just the foods you choose.

The Watershed Sciences and Engineering Program of the Bucknell Center for Sustainability & the Environment integrates research, teaching and outreach focused on the Susquehanna River. The development of this initiative is largely funded by the Henry Luce Foundation.
The largest non-navigable river in North America, the Susquehanna is the major source of fresh water to the continent's largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay. The health of the bay ecosystem is intimately linked to the land use and natural hydrogeomorphic processes upstream in the watershed. Located in the heart of the Appalachian forests and farmlands, Bucknell is ideally situated on the banks of the river to take a leadership role in long-term studies of the river.

EVANS MILLS A developer has submitted a preliminary site plan to the town of LeRay Planning Board to build a USAA Financial Center in front of the Walmart Supercenter on Route 11.
U.S. Real Estate Limited Partnership, San Antonio, Texas, proposes to construct a 4,485-square-foot bank on a vacant parcel owned by Walmart.
The plan for the bank, which specializes in serving military bases, comes after the Planning Board recently approved a plan for a Northern Credit Union branch on the parcel to the immediate north of the site.
The developers application indicates it plans to move swiftly, breaking ground on the project in the fall. It wont have to complete any environmental studies on the 1.36-acre parcel because the Planning Board previously approved an environmental assessment form on behalf of Walmart for the land.
The plan calls for an entrance to the bank on the southbound side of Route 11, two drive-thru automated teller machines and 40 parking spaces.

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Thousands of people opted for a shopping-free Black Friday this year, choosing instead a visit to a museum, park or library.
"I've got the kids. We're not going shopping," said Julie Wang from the Minnesota History Center, where she brought her four children for the opening of the "Then Now Wow" exhibit.
The Wang family was far from alone. More than 1,700 people lined up in the dark to see the exhibit that opened at 6 a.m.
"Our Black Friday promotion was inspired by those people who maybe feel left out because everyone else is going shopping and they don't really like to shop," said Wendy Jones, Director of Museum Education for the Minnesota Historical Society.
And true to form, the museum's Black Friday event even included free stuff.
"The first 50 families got free memberships. The first 200 kids got knit 'Then Now Wow' hats, 25 percent off coupons in stores, free parking, all before 9 a.m.," Jones said.
The History Center proved not to be the only Minnesota mecca for non-shoppers.
"We're supposed to be thankful, than we go on this mad rush to the stores, like we forgot what we're really supposed to be thankful for, the important things," said Darrell Coles about his trip to the Minneapolis Central Library on Friday.
But minutes later, Coles also shared a shopping admission.
"I just figure I can get a better deal if I wait, anyway," he said.
For Marilyn Doyle and Mary Walters, Friday was a day to walk -- not shop. Or, truth be told, both.
"We're going for a 90-minute walk, uphill and down," Walters said. "Don't tell anybody, but I was over at Kohl's at 5 o'clock this morning."

A contingent of wounded Fort Drum soldiers joined the hundreds of thousands of spectators who descended on Washington for President Barack Obamas second inauguration Monday.
Its a once-in-a-lifetime feeling, said Spc. Jacob E. Owens, who was one of a handful of 10th Mountain Division soldiers recovering at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Bethesda, Md., who were invited to the event.
Spc. Owens has been hospitalized since his left leg and right eye were wounded Nov. 23, 2011, in an improvised explosive device attack in Afghanistan. In the attack, Spc. Owens, previously assigned to the 630th Route Clearance Company, 7th Engineering Battalion of the 10th Sustainment Brigade, also suffered a blood clot in his lungs and a traumatic brain injury.
Capt. Jake E. Murphy, an infantry officer from the 2nd Battalion, 87th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, described the presidents remarks as uplifting and positive.
It made me feel were stepping in the right direction, he said.
Capt. Murphy required amputation of both of his legs after being wounded in an IED attack in July 2011 in Kandahar Province. He is waiting to receive his medical ratings from the Department of Veterans Affairs to be discharged from the Army.
Sitting in front of the soldiers during the ceremony were members of the Tuskegee Airmen, the group of black fighter pilots who shattered racial stigmas about the abilities of black service members during World War II.
Capt. Murphy said it was very impressive to meet the pilots.
With different generations having the same goal, same jobs ... there was a lot of pride, he said.
Spc. Owens said hearing performers such as James Taylor, Kelly Clarkson and Beyonce was icing on the cake.
Other recovering soldiers from the division listed as invited to the inauguration were Staff Sgt. Timothy Payne, Pfc. Rex Tharp and Spc. Johnathon Mullen, all of the 3rd Brigade Combat Team.
In addition to being able to see the inauguration, some of the soldiers were invited to attend the Commander-in-Chiefs Ball on Monday night at the Washington Convention Center. The ball, one of only two official inaugural balls during the weekends festivities, is held primarily for military members and their families.

CANTON A St. Lawrence County Board of Legislators discussion on the NY SAFE Act will take place at 5:30 p.m. Feb. 25.
Legislator Joseph R. Lightfoot, R-Ogdensburg, had planned to bring the topic up at a committee meeting Tuesday but was told that would not allow sufficient time for other legislators to conduct their own review.
I will definitely bring it on the 25th, Mr. Lightfoot said. I encourage anyone who has anything to say to come to the meeting.

Following the news that AT&T purchase T-Mobile, it appears that the response from users is not as good as many thought that it would be. A recent report claims that T-Mobile has lost a total of 50,000 subscribers throughout the second quarter and also saw a decline in their revenue. The second-quarter results were reported on Thursday it was noted that the company lost a total of 50,000 subscribers over the second quarter alone. That is a huge draw, but it's still not nearly as large as the total of 93,000 subscribers that the company lost one year previous to that. They have been hemorrhaging subscribers left and right and have not done a good job of keeping the subscribers that they do have.
It is clear that users were not happy with the fact that T-Mobile was purchased by AT&T. We have seen the total number of customers that they have subscribed fall substantially every quarter since the merger was first announced. AT&T has seen the total cost of the company perhaps not pan out in the way that they thought that it would. Things have changed drastically since they first purchased the company.
It will be interesting to see if they are able to put together a plan to get the subscribers back before the merger officially takes place. The purchase of T-Mobile from AT&T has not actually gone through yet, but it is clear that they are not looking for the subscriber base, and instead are looking to extend their network and put together a plan that makes sense. In all, the number of subscribers that they have lost over the course of the last few quarters has been a huge blow to the company's subscriber base and it is clear that they are going to have to do something in order to regain the customers that they have lost. As contracts end, customers are jumping ship for greener pastures than AT&T, a company that has not had the best reputation as of late.
PureMobile carries wide range of unlocked cell phone such as unlocked Motorola Atrix, Motorola Spice and cell phone accessories.

Maine Maritime Academy has renamed one of its navigation training vessels in honor of one of the school's most famous alumna.
CASTINE, Maine (AP) _ The 70-foot vessel was dedicated over the weekend in honor of Susan J. Clark, valedictorian of the Castine school's Class of 1985.
Clark was as Portland Harbor's first female harbor pilot and was the first woman to join the Portland Marine Society.
She died of cancer a year ago at age 48.
Friends and family joined to take the maiden voyage of the renamed vessel.
Good friend Capt. David Gelinas told WLBZ-TV that Clark was humble and unassuming, but one of the smartest people he knew.
Clark piloted more than 1,000 ships into Portland Harbor through Portland Pilots Inc., where she'd worked since 2001.

Comments about Merrell Moab Waterproof Shoe (Men's):
I normally wear an 8.5 in most major tennis shoes - I picked up a pair of these Moab shoes in size 9 and they feel very comfortable.
They are good for moderately wide feet as well.
Immediately after buying them, I went on a 4.5 mile moderate hike (with short strenuous segments) in North Georgia and had no trouble navigating rocky, root-exposed, sometimes muddy terrain going up and downhill.
My feet had minimal soreness after the hike - but I attribute that more to being a relatively new hiker.

The LV-S2 delivers tremendous versatility, not just in the inputs it supports, but also in the adjustments that can be made for a perfect picture. These include picture quality adjustment features as well as physical setup features.
Color, Brightness and Contrast Control
The tone reproduction can be tailored by switching the image mode between standard and high contrast with PC inputs and between standard and cinema with video inputs.
Auto Grayscale and Auto Fleshtone
The LV-S2 will automatically adjust the quality of the picture, using its Auto Grayscale function and its Auto Fleshtone function, for the best possible display. These functions deliver enhanced contrast and truer skin tones.
Keystone Adjustment
If the projector is not aligned properly with the screen (perpendicular to it), keystoning can occur. This will create a displayed image with trapezoidal shape (narrower at the bottom than top, for example). The LV-S2 features keystone adjustment to correct for the times when the projector cannot be set up perpendicular to the screen, for angles up to +/-20 degrees from the perpendicular.

Sunday 7th April 2013
First House
£15.00 - £18.00
LINE UP confirmed: Sarah Weller – vocals, Freddie Gavita – trumpet, Simon Golding – guitar, Arthur Lea - piano, Spencer Brown - bass, Simon Pearson – drums
Sarah Weller presents the songs that proliferated Doris Day's film and recording career comprising of the legendary films Calamity Jane, Pillow Talk, Love Me or Leave Me and Young at Heart and her extensive recording collaborations and classic repertoire Sentimental Journey, Day by Day, Bewitched, Close your Eyes and Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps.
Sarah Weller, a lifelong fan, takes us on a tour of the songs that highlighted the golden era of Hollywood films to turn her into the biggest female box office star ever and popular recording star.
The show celebrates Doris' upcoming 91st birthday. Interspersed with facts about her life, her co-stars and cohorts, combined with the continuing interest in her life this is a show that is suited to fans young and old.
"With a humble assurance befitting the experienced performer that she is, singer Sarah Weller treads lightly on the 'American apple pie' phenomenon of the iconic Doris whilst touching on some of the darker aspects of her often less than satisfactory relationships with the men in her life. No mere mimicry - this well-paced show is Sarah's own 'non-ironic' take on Day's life emanating from a genuine love of her heroine's persona as a great actress as well as the show-stopping singer who touched all our hearts!"
(Paul Pace – Music Co-ordinator for Ronnie Scott's and The Spice of Life Jazz)

When mice get into Mississippi homes, they can create a wide range of mice problems, from contaminating your home to damaging your food. Mice will end up in the kitchen, looking for food, and will contaminate foods in the cupboards, kitchen surfaces and pantries by leaving significant amounts of droppings and urine. Some people get Salmonella poisoning, simply from mice crawling around on the counters or furniture, surfaces that we touch every day.
Not only do micecontaminate areas, mice can also cause significant damage to things like electrical wiring and other materials within the attics and walls of your Mississippi home. They can damage insulation in the attic and can leave a mess of droppings to be cleaned up. It is important to take the proper precautions when dealing with mouse excrement and it is best to contact a Mississippi Critter Control office in your area for services on repairing mouse damage and decontaminating areas of your Mississippi home.
Typical locations for mice within Mississippi homes are attics and basements. The common process for getting rid of mice in these areas of the home starts with inspection. Mississippi Critter Control will identify the source of entry for the mice and harborage areas where damage from the mouse infestation is taking place. We inspect both the interior and exterior of Mississippi homes in a thorough manner, in order to identify all points of entry.
Once we have identified all points of mouse entry, Mississippi Critter Control will implement a mouse trapping and baiting program to quickly reduce the population of mice in the infestation. When the mice have been trapped, they will be removed from the Mississippi home through a safe dead mice removal process. Then, Critter Control will seal all entry points to prevent any re-entry of mice.
After all entry points have been sealed and the mice have been removed from the home, Critter Control will use rodenticides (if allowed by the state) around the exterior of the Mississippi home, in order to reduce the mouse infestation pressure on the house. Cleaning up mouse damage and excrement in basements and attics is also an important step of the process and should be carried out by a mouse professional.
For the best methods of getting rid of mouse infestations in the attic and basement of your Mississippi home, contact Mississippi Critter Control in your area for professional and effective services.

CINCINNATI (MarketWatch) — The major U.S. stock benchmarks have established a holding pattern as investors await the presidential election results.
Against this backdrop, the market price action remains distinctly technical, as detailed below.
Before detailing the U.S. markets' wider view, the S&P 500's hourly chart highlights the past two weeks.
As illustrated, the S&P has recently topped at its 50-day moving average — almost precisely — and reversed back to the range.
From current levels, initial resistance holds at 1,422, and is followed by the 50-day, currently 1,434.9.
Meanwhile, the Dow industrials' near-term backdrop equally technical.
Consider that the index bottomed Monday at 13,040, precisely matching first support.
Looking ahead, initial resistance holds in the 13,170 area, and is followed by last week's high of 12,289.
And the Nasdaq Composite's near-term backdrop remains jagged.
As illustrated, the index topped last week at 3,034 — just under major resistance — and has sold off sharply.
Separately, the Nasdaq closed Monday on the 3,000 mark, matching the mid-point of its two-week range.
More plainly, the Nasdaq's near-term backdrop is volatile, and trendless.
Widening the view to six months adds perspective.
On this wider view, the Nasdaq is compressing between two significant technical areas. Specifically:
- Nasdaq resistance at its breakdown point of 3,040.
- The 200-day moving average, currently 2,981.
Against this backdrop, the index has established an intermediate-term downtrend defined by a series of "lower highs" and "lower lows."
Practically speaking, the intermediate-term downtrend has clashed with the 200-day moving average, and this area marks the bull/bear tension.
Moving to the Dow, the blue-chip benchmark is traversing its new range.
As detailed previously, significant resistance spans from 13,330 to 13,343, matching its breakdown point and the 50-day moving average.
Conversely, major support holds at the Dow's 200-day moving average, currently 12,990.
A violation of the 200-day would raise the flag to a primary trend shift.
And the S&P 500 remains capped by resistance.
Consider that the S&P topped last week at its 50-day moving average — almost to the decimal — and has initially drawn sellers.
The bigger picture
As detailed above, the market price action remains distinctly technical.
In fact, one view would be that a holding pattern has taken shape as investors await the U.S. election results. (Or potentially, non-results.)
Against this backdrop, two familiar technical tests stand out.
Starting with the Nasdaq, its intermediate-term downtrend has clashed with the primary uptrend.
As always, the 200-day moving average — currently 2,981 — defines the longer-term trend, and a violation of this area would likely signal a primary trend shift.
Separately, significant resistance holds at the breakdown point, Nasdaq 3,040, and last week's downdraft was directionally sharp.
Shaky price action.

Four Christmases
When upscale, happily unmarried San Francisco couple Kate and Brad find themselves socked in by fog on Christmas morning, their exotic vacation plans morph into the family-centric holiday they had, until now, gleefully avoided. Out of obligation--and unable to escape--they trudge to not one, not two, but four relative-choked festivities, increasingly mortified to find childhood fears raised, adolescent wounds reopened and their very future together uncertain. As Brad counts the hours to when he can get away from their parents, step-parents, siblings and an assortment of nieces and nephews, Kate is starting to hear the ticking of a different kind of clock. And by the end of the day, she is beginning to wonder if their crazy families' choices are not so crazy after all.

The city is selling the last house standing in its Neighborhood Stabilization Program.
The City Council on Monday night approved a sale agreement for 113 Adams Ave. to an undisclosed buyer for $39,500.
Because the house was renovated using federal funds, it could be sold only to buyers who meet the programs income requirements.
The house is partially renovated; work remains on the second floor. It also lacks a water heater and a furnace, said Andrea L. Smith, the citys director of planning and development.
There are funds available to assist a purchaser via Affordable Housing Corporation grants, she said. The grants have a Feb. 1 deadline for an amount up to $40,000 per property.
Though the buyer is required to have a mortgage to pay 80 percent of the purchase price, the AHC grant could cover the remaining 20 percent as a down payment.
Ms. Smith said the city would close out its Neighborhood Stabilization Program in March, washing its hands of a program rife with pitfalls and struggles with difficult regulations. The program was much maligned by City Council members for rules limiting the selection of properties, the scope of repairs and the pool of eligible buyers.
The program properties were sold on a lottery basis names were drawn in random order to establish priority buyers. The undisclosed buyer of 113 Adams St. was fourth on the citys list, but was offered the property after a previous buyer chose not to sign a purchase-and-sale agreement.
Patti Simmons, Heuvelton, said she did not want to sign the agreement unless the city could guarantee her the funds to finish rehabilitating the house.
I was buyer number two or three. ... I only asked them to put in there what they promised me, she said. There was no promise that the money would be there to finish the house, and there was no guarantee that I would be able to back out and get my deposit back.
Ms. Smith said the agreement would have allowed Ms. Simmons to back out of the deal with her deposit intact.
If any applicant going forward decided to back out, they would get their $2,000 back, Ms. Smith said. The AHC program requires a buyer and a signed sale agreement. We couldnt put the grant money into the language of the agreement itself.
Ms. Simmons and her attorney werent convinced.
I had two days to figure this out, she said. I couldnt do that. I couldnt risk my family. Ill be looking somewhere outside the city limits because I cant put myself through something like that again.
Though all six council members in attendance supported the Adams Street sale, the agreement almost wasnt approved. Councilwoman Jennifer Stevenson originally tried to abstain because one of her real estate partners was working with the buyer.
This is a for-sale-by-owner property, Ms. Smith said. There shouldnt be a conflict of interest.
The Neighborhood Stabilization Program, a vestige of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, was designed to renovate homes using grant money, then sell them at reduced cost to low- and moderate-income families.
The other remaining Neighborhood Stabilization Program house, at 505 New York Ave., was demolished this month because it was considered too damaged to preserve.
Two other program houses, at 819 Knox St. and 2 Grove St., have been sold.

Comments about Werner Paddles Bandit Canoe Paddle (Carbon):
This is my first serious whitewater canoe paddle, and it has been great so far this season. I used to paddle with a flat blade, and really like the spoon blade that this has. The paddle is very light and sturdy, which pays off over a day of hard paddling. I haven't been very kind to it - bracing off rocks, digging hard in shallow water, etc, and it has stood up well to the abuse. While the carbon fiber is beautiful, the clear coat does scratch very easily, so it won't look beautiful for long, but that shouldn't be the reason you buy this paddle. The only drawback I see is that since it has a spoon blade, you are going to gradually wear down one corner, since you can't flip the paddle to spread the wear out evenly to both blade tip corners.

Bullous pemphigoid (BUL-us PEM-fih-goid) is a rare skin condition that causes large, fluid-filled blisters on areas of skin that often flex — such as the lower abdomen, upper thighs or armpits. Bullous pemphigoid is most common in people older than age 60.
Bullous pemphigoid occurs when your immune system attacks a thin layer of tissue below your outer layer of skin. The reason for this abnormal immune response is unknown, although it sometimes can be triggered by taking certain medications.
Treatment usually includes corticosteroids, such as prednisone, and other drugs that suppress the immune system. Bullous pemphigoid can be life-threatening, especially for older people who are already in poor health.
The primary feature of bullous pemphigoid is the appearance of large blisters that don't easily rupture when touched. The fluid inside the blisters is usually clear but may contain some blood. The skin around the blisters may appear normal or red.
In most cases, the blisters appear on the lower abdomen, groin, upper thighs and arms. Blisters are often located along creases or folds in the skin, such as the skin on the inner side of a joint. The affected areas of skin can be very itchy. You might also develop blisters or sores in your mouth. Rarely, the mucous membranes of the eyes can be involved, creating redness, soreness and discomfort.
If you develop unexplained blistering — a condition not caused, for example, by a known skin allergy or contact with poison ivy — see your doctor.
The cause of bullous pemphigoid is not well understood. The blisters occur because of a malfunction in the immune system.
Your body's immune system normally produces antibodies to fight bacteria, viruses or other potentially harmful foreign substances. For reasons that are not clear, the body may develop an antibody to a particular tissue in your body.
In bullous pemphigoid, the immune system produces antibodies to the skin's basement membrane, a thin layer of fibers connecting the outer layer of skin (epidermis) and the next layer of skin (dermis). These antibodies trigger inflammatory activity that produces the blisters and itching of bullous pemphigoid.
Bullous pemphigoid usually appears randomly with no clear factors contributing to the onset of disease. A small percentage of cases may be triggered by certain medical treatments, such as:
Bullous pemphigoid most commonly occurs in people older than age 60, and the risk increases with age.
If ruptured blisters become infected, this can lead to sepsis — a potentially life-threatening infection that affects your entire body. This serious complication is more likely to occur in older adults who are in generally poor health. Rare forms of pemphigoid involving the mucous membranes of the mouth or eye can lead to scarring.
You'll likely start by seeing your primary care doctor. He or she may refer you to a doctor who specializes in skin disorders (dermatologist). You may want to bring a friend or relative to your appointment. This person, in addition to offering support, can write down information from your doctor or other clinic staff during the visit.
You should make a list to share with your doctor that includes:
Your doctor will likely ask you a number of questions. Be prepared to answer the following:
To confirm the diagnosis, your doctor might take a small sample of the affected skin for laboratory testing.
The goals of bullous pemphigoid treatment are to help the skin heal as quickly as possible and relieve itching. Your doctor will likely prescribe a combination of drugs that inhibit immune system activities that cause inflammation. These drugs may include:
If you have bullous pemphigoid, you can help take care of your condition with the following self-care strategies:

Posted on August 1, 2013Florida metal marauders TRIVIUM have announced the release of their eagerly awaited new album, 'Vengeance Falls' through Roadrunner Records on October 14. The disc follows 2011's critically acclaimed 'In Waves'.
Produced by David Draiman (Disturbed, Device), 'Vengeance Falls' will be available for pre-order at iTunes from August 20, with lead single 'Strife' available as an instant download with all pre-orders. For fans who can't wait for a taste of new TRIVIUM, the album opening 'Brave This Storm' is available as a free MP3 download now at www.trivium.fm, a newly launched website designed to interact with fans in a whole new way.
TRIVIUM's sixth studio album, 'Vengeance Falls' marks a massive creative milestone for the acclaimed metallers. The collection, recorded earlier this year at Draiman's Austin, Texas home studio, sees the band pushing the envelope on their own distinctive sound, a sonic approach that saw 'In Waves' hit #1 on Billboard's "Hard Rock Albums" upon its 2011 release, not to mention a fantastic Top 15 debut on the overall Billboard 200 - their highest chart rankings to date.
"'Vengeance Falls' is the culmination of everything we've gone through; the representation of struggle endured from within and experienced from the world. Every failure and every success has led us to this moment. 'Vengeance Falls' is this moment in time," explains Trivium vocalist/guitarist Matt Heafy.
Producer David Draiman adds, "'Vengeance Falls' is a masterpiece of metal. It is their finest work to date, and a record so strong that it will blow the doors open to a world they deserve to dominate."
'Vengeance Falls' track listing:
1. Brave This Storm
2. Vengeance Falls
3. Strife
4. No Way To Heal
5. To Believe
6. At The End Of This War
7. Through Blood And Dirt And Bone
8. Villainy Thrives
9. Incineration: The Broken World
10. Wake (The End Is Nigh)
Founded in 2000, TRIVIUM first catapulted into the ranks of modern metal with 2004's Roadrunner debut, 'Ascendancy' which was named 'Album of the Year' by Kerrang! Magazine. 2006's 'The Crusade' incorporated new melodic colours into the band's sound, resulting in widespread applause and a Top 25 Billboard 200 debut. 'Shogun' followed two years later receiving even greater acclaim and chart success, including a #1 debut on the UK's Rock Album Chart.
Like any great rock band worth its salt, TRIVIUM have won over legions of fans through relentless touring, travelling the globe almost non-stop as headliners, special guests (for the likes of Iron Maiden, Slipknot, and Machine Head), and top-of-the-bill favourites at globally renowned festivals and tours such as Download, Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival, Soundwave, Family Values, and Ozzfest. Known for their extraordinary technical skill and unrelenting creative power, the band were honoured with Metal Hammer's 2006 "Golden Gods Award" as "Best Live Band", amongst other accolades through the years.

It looks like those rumors that have said that the next version of the unlocked iPhone 4 will be called the iPhone 5 are wrong, and the phone may actually be called the iPhone 4S. There are many different rumors that have been floating around the net about the name of the next iPhone, so it can be a little hard to tell what to believe that this point. The latest info comes from Jefferies and Co. analyst Peter Misek. He stated that the name will be "4S" in a recent site posting. First, the company released their 3G. Then, they released their 3GS. This was surprising at the time, but the phone offered significant upgrades over the previous version of the device.
They also went on to say that the phone would be undergoing a number of very small cosmetic changes, and would also have better cameras on both sides of the phone. Also included in the upgrade would be an A5 dual core processor, along with HSPA+ support. This would mark a number of minor upgrades, similar to the differences that we saw between the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS.
Although Apple has not commented on this rumor, you can bet that they will let it flourish as they usually do with rumors. Apple obviously enjoys the press that they receive, and only shoots down rumors that get out of control in terms of popularity, and they do not want people to start taking untrue rumors as fact.
Hopefully the release of this iPhone version will go a little more smoothly than the release of the previous, which was hampered by various connection problems in the early days of the device. It will be interesting to hear how Apple reacts, if they ever do. Not much is available about the next version of the iPhone 4 unlocked, but some probably will be here soon.

Jason Grant MEE-97-07, pp. 100. Dept. of Telecommunications and Mathematics, 1997.
A major factor that Will effect the deployment of broadband services to the home in
the future is the availability of open application service protocols. Without such
protocols, every service delivered to the home would require its own interface to
receive it. Open protocols would allow set-top-boxes, PCs or other information
appliantes to access multiple services from multiple service providers. The two major
concepts in this masters thesis are CORBA and DSM-CC. DSM-CC and CORBA
k 't combined provides the necessary open application service protocols making it
possible for Clients to access multiple service providers. All DSM-CC User-to-User
interface definitions has been defined using OMG IDL (which is part of the CORBA
e C specification).
The main objective of this master thesis has been to implement an OMG IDL
compiler (talled a Translator in this thesis) which maps OMG IDL to the C language.
An OMG IDL compiler generates Client stubs and Server skeletons. Stubs and
skeletons automate the underlying network activities (in conjunction with an ORB),
for example, parameter marshaling/demarshalin g. The main reasons of developing the
compiler is to use it for developing DSM-CC U-U services and applications in a fast
and less error prone way. There is also an example implementation demonstrating
how the DSM-CC U-U protocol can be implemented in a CORBA system.

OGDENSBURG Claxton-Hepburn Medical Centers emergency room chief says the hospitals ability to serve patients would be seriously damaged by the proposed closure of inpatient care facilities at the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center.
Because Claxton-Hepburn is the state-designated location for mental health patients in St. Lawrence County to be evaluated before being sent to a psychiatric center, the decision to send patients downstate could overtax the hospitals capacity to house patients awaiting transportation.
The state Office of Mental Health plans to move child inpatient care to Utica and adult inpatient care to Syracuse, a proposal that has drawn harsh criticism from north country leaders and mental health advocates.
Dr. H. Theodore Klaudt, chief of emergency medicine at Claxton-Hepburn, said the OMH plan would impair the hospitals ability to take care of its patients – both those with mental health problems and others. The hospital has three beds in the emergency department designated for mental health patients that are secure and separate. There are 13 beds in the rest of the department.
We very routinely have more than three mental health patients in our department, Dr. Klaudt said.
Were trying to help mental health patients the best we can, he said. When youre in a lot of psychological distress, you dont want to be in the center of chaos.
Last year the Claxton-Hepburn emergency department saw 19,000 patients, Dr. Klaudt said; 1,700 of those were experiencing mental health problems. Those patients often take more time to clear than other patients, he said.
Dr. Klaudt said patients who end up being transferred to a mental health facility spend an average of 15 hours and 45 minutes at Claxton-Hepburn.
The patients who are admitted to our psychiatric unit spend an average of 10.5 hours, he said, and the patients who come for a mental health evaluation and then are sent home stay for an average of nine hours.
That is significantly longer than non-mental-health patients, who average five hours if they are seriously hurt or ill. Most patients who are not seriously injured stay for just over two hours, Dr. Klaudt said.
If there are more mental health patients, theyre going to stay longer and take up more of our department, Dr. Klaudt said. Its also going to impact the other 17,000 visits, all those other patients who we have a duty and obligation to serve. Theyre going to find that things slow down because of space constraints.
Dr. Klaudt said its already difficult to find space for patients at the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center, with patients occasionally having to be sent to other facilities around the state.
Without inpatient treatment at the St. Lawrence Psychiatric Center, there is a high likelihood that were going to be holding them in our emergency department, Dr. Klaudt said. It will be more difficult to find inpatient beds.
And as they wait for transportation to centers that are farther away, they will be taking up precious room in the already strained emergency department.
Theyre not patients you can leave sitting in the waiting room, Dr. Klaudt said, noting that suicide risk and other issues require mental health patients to have people observing them constantly.

Product Details
Dodge Ram 6.7L Turbocharged 2012, Stage 2 Si Cold Air Intake System by aFe®. The aFe Stage 2 Si Cold Air Intake System replaces your entire factory air intake system with a large high-flow aFe air filter, a totally enclosed airbox and a smoothly contoured, less restrictive intake tube. This system enables your engine to take in huge quantities of dense, cool, oxygen laden air. The result is better combustion, increased horsepower and torque, and a noticeable gain in performance.
- Improves airflow to your enginer
- Isolates the air filter from engine heat, enabling it to take in cooler, denser air
- Increases horsepower and torque, improves performance
- Designed and tested for each specific application
- Includes a conical high performance aFe air filter
- Includes a precision designed molded, sealed plastic airbox and plastic intake tube
- Comes complete with everything required for installation, including comprehensive instructions
- Can be installed in 45-90 minutes with simple hand tools; no drilling, cutting or fabrication required
- Limited 2-year warranty
- Proudly made in the USA
The Stage 2 Si Cold Air Intake System is for those who want a substantial performance gain with less intake noise and a stock appearance. It replaces your factory, restrictive air intake system with the massive aFe performance air filter of your choice, a sealed plastic air box that isolates the filter from engine heat and quiets intake noise, and a rotomolded plastic intake tube with smooth bends for increased airflow volume. The increased flow of cooler air to your engine will result in noticeable gains in power and performance. Cooler, denser air contains more oxygen, and more oxygen in your engine's air intake charge means better combustion, resulting in greater engine output.
The aFe Pro 5R air filter was designed to provide the maximum airflow possible, to enable your engine to make the most horsepower and torque. But aFe didn't achieve this by ignoring engine protection. The Pro 5R outperforms most other cotton gauze air filters with a 98.6% efficiency rating. The increased airflow and high filtration capability are the result of the Pro 5R's construction. It's made of 5 layers of progressively finer medical-grade cotton gauze.
Competitors use constant size mesh gauze in their filters, which creates voids/openings that can allow dirt to pass through. As the progressively finer layers of gauze are stacked in the Pro 5R, the randomness of the openings increase, minimizing spaces with no filter media. Dust accumulates on multiple layers, increasing overall dust holding capacity and filtration efficiency.
The Pro DRY S filter combines high airflow and filtration efficiency with the convenience of oil-free maintenance. It contains 2 layers of randomly porous synthetic fabric, which allows approximately twice the airflow when compared to a typical stock air filter. The increased airflow results in more horsepower and torque, better throttle response and more miles per gallon. But this improved airflow and performance hasn't been gained at the expense of engine protection. The Pro DRY S has an excellent 99.2% filtration efficiency rating.
The pleats in both filters are evenly spaced for greater dust holding capacity and the tips are rounded for better airflow. They're also 30% deeper than comparable aftermarket air filters for longer service intervals and greater dust holding capacity. The sealing surface and supporting structures are made from 100% polyurethane, to withstand extreme engine temperatures.
The one-piece sealed plastic airbox may install in the same location as the factory airbox, but there the similarity ends. The Stage 2 Si airbox is much larger inside in order to include the largest aFe filter possible. The air box also features strategically located openings and scoops to ensure that only the coolest air is forced into the air filter for greater efficiency and performance. And enclosing the air filter also results in less intake noise. The Stage 2 Si airbox installs easily; no cutting or drilling is required, and it's attached with quality stainless steel hardware supplied with the kit.
A specially developed 3-angle velocity stack smoothes the airflow transition from the air filter to the rotomolded intake tube. The precision design and smooth contours of the intake tube maximize airflow volume and speed for optimum power gains. The intake tube also features a precision tuned MAF sensor pad, which will not affect engine performance or cause a CHECK ENGINE light.
The aFe Stage 2 Si Cold Air Intake System comes complete with everything necessary for installation, including comprehensive instructions. It's backed by aFe's limited 2-year warranty and made in the USA.375.00 445.00
aFe® (Advanced Flow Engineering, Inc.) manufactures performance products for late model cars, light trucks and SUVs. The company was founded in 1999 with an initial concentration on high performance air filters. Since then, the company product line has broadened to include cold air intakes, fluid filters, exhaust systems, intake manifolds, intercoolers, programmers, differential covers, transmission pans and throttle body spacers. The team of engineers, machinists, production and sales people at aFe® have many years of experience in their respective positions, and together work to ensure they produce the best automotive products on the market.
