By Aldo Panessidi
The brain continues to reveal little mysteries and idiosyncrasies that help us to better understand human behavior – especially around our less than stellar choices and vices. Alcohol, drugs, soda, food – these are all known triggers for pleasure centers of the brain. As is online gaming, so it is really no surprise that social media is also addicting. According to a team at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business, the networking sites available at the touch of a button could be even more addicting than nicotine or alcohol. Consumers engage in social media through the unlocked cell phones, tablet, iPod and MacBook devices
Retrevo conducted an exceptional report on Social Media use.... truly this is The Mobile Generation:
Social Media All Through the Night
Not only do social media fanatics check Facebook and Twitter throughout the day, almost half of the respondents said they check in on the social media scene in bed, during the night or as soon as they wake up in the morning. Naturally, younger social media users said they tweet by night more than
those over 25.
Leaving your valuable mobile devices unprotected is risky! Discover the latest innovative protection solutions… stylish top brand bags, sleeves and cases specifically designed to protect your devices from scratches and blemishes. Tough on the outside, sweet on the inside these brand name protection accessories combine complete device coverage with sleek artistic expression..
Need more evidence that social media can be habit forming? How about the fact that 56% of social media users need to check Facebook at least once a day? Even more impressive are the 12% who check in every couple of hours.
Get powered up for work, life and play easily and conveniently. Discover the largest selection of desktop chargers, wall chargers, car chargers and batteries. Get all the power and energy you need for the mobile lifestyle.
We Interrupt This Dinner for an Important Message
Just to round out the picture, the Gadgetology study asked consumers how they felt about being interrupted at various times and occasions for an electronic message. With everyone texting away on their phones these days, we weren't surprised to see over 40% of respondents saying they didn't mind being interrupted for a message. In fact, 32% said a meal was not off limits while 7% said they'd even check out a message during an intimate moment.
Will Twitter Kill the Morning News Shows?
Among social media users, it appears almost half are so involved with Facebook and Twitter that they check in the first thing in the morning. With 16% of social media users saying this is how they get their morning "news," could we be witnessing the first signs of social media services beginning to replace "Good Morning America" on TV as the source for what's going on in the world? Can they also provide more stimulation than a morning cup of coffee?
Enhance your mobility and turn your device into a power tool! Discover select accessories such as; stylus & pens, micro SD memory cards, batteries, docking stations, Bluetooth headsets, data cables and glider glovesall specifically designed to make your devices functionally efficient and performance rich.
Another study was in Germany where the 205 participants were polled through BlackBerry smartphones seven times daily where they had to note if they'd had an urge to use social media in the past 30 minutes and if the participant succumbed to the desire or not. They were also asked to rate the severity of the desire on a scale of mild to "irresistible."
The full results will be published in the Psychological Science journal, but the preliminary data shows that compared to other addictive behavior, the highest rate of "self-control failures" were in conjunction with social media.
According to the team lead of the study, Wilhelm Hofmann, "Modern life is a welter of assorted desires marked by frequent conflict and resistance, the latter with uneven success." With traditional addictions, the downside is clear: weight gain, death, monetary loss, damaged relationships. Social networking is more sinister, innocuous, and incredibly accessible. But the downsides are potentially still there in the form of lost time, and frayed relationships (because let's be honest, how many conversations are conducted on Facebook while sitting on the couch next to a significant other).
So what's the answer? With tablets, cloud storage, smart TVs and smartphones our connectivity is set to reach an all-time high. The consequences of compulsively checking a social networking site while driving are more clear-cut than intangible time-suck. So if you count yourself as one of the addicted, Bluetooth headset technology solutions and innovative car accessories could be necessary purchases for your handset.

28 U.S. Code § 1447 - Procedure after removal generally
(a) In any case removed from a State court, the district court may issue all necessary orders and process to bring before it all proper parties whether served by process issued by the State court or otherwise.
(b) It may require the removing party to file with its clerk copies of all records and proceedings in such State court or may cause the same to be brought before it by writ of certiorari issued to such State court.
(c) A motion to remand the case on the basis of any defect other than lack of subject matter jurisdiction must be made within 30 days after the filing of the notice of removal under section 1446 (a). If at any time before final judgment it appears that the district court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the case shall be remanded. An order remanding the case may require payment of just costs and any actual expenses, including attorney fees, incurred as a result of the removal. A certified copy of the order of remand shall be mailed by the clerk to the clerk of the State court. The State court may thereupon proceed with such case.
(d) An order remanding a case to the State court from which it was removed is not reviewable on appeal or otherwise, except that an order remanding a case to the State court from which it was removed pursuant to section 1442 or 1443 of this title shall be reviewable by appeal or otherwise.

L. 112–51, § 2(d),Nov. 9, 2011, 125 Stat. 546.)
Historical and Revision Notes
1948 Act
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., §§ 71, 72, 74, 76, 80, 81 and 83 (Mar. 3, 1911, ch. 231, §§ 28, 29, 31, 33, 37 and 38,36 Stat. 1094–1098; Jan. 20, 1914, ch. 11, 39 Stat. 278; Aug. 23, 1916, ch. 399, 39 Stat. 532; Apr. 16, 1920, ch. 146, 41 Stat. 554; Jan. 31, 1928, ch. 14, § 1,45 Stat. 54).
Section consolidates procedural provisions of sections 71, 72, 74, 76, 80, 81 and 83 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., with important changes in substance and phraseology.
Subsection (a) is derived from sections 72, 76, 81 and 83 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed. The remaining provisions of said section 83 are the basis of section 1448 of this title.
Subsection (b) is derived from sections 72, 74, 76 and 83 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., which have been rewritten to provide the utmost simplicity and flexibility of procedure in bringing the State court record to the district court.
[Editorial Note.—Subsecs. (c), (d) and (e) as originally revised and incorporated in this section read as follows:
"(c) It may order the pleadings recast and the parties realigned according to their real interest.
"(d) If any party fails to comply with its lawful orders, the district court may enter such further orders and judgments as justice requires.
"(e) If at any time before final judgment it appears that the case was removed improvidently and without jurisdiction, the district court shall remand the case. A certified copy of the order of remand shall be mailed by its clerk to the clerk of the State court. The State court may thereupon proceed with such case."]
Subsections (c) and (d) are substituted for unnecessary and inconsistent procedural provisions.
Subsection (e) [now subsec. (c)] is derived from sections 71 and 80 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed. Such subsection is rewritten to eliminate the cumbersome procedure of remand. Under this chapter as revised, the petition for removal under section 1446 of this chapter will be filed in the Federal court in the first instance and the right of removal determined in that court before the petition is granted.
The provisions in section 80 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., relating to actions commenced in district courts, as distinguished from actions removed thereto, are incorporated in section 1359 of this title. Other provisions of said section 80 appear in section 1919 of this title.1949 Act
This section strikes out subsections (c) and (d) ofsection 1447 of title 28, U.S.C., as covered by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and adds a new subsection to such section 1447 to remove any doubt that the former law as to the finality of an order of remand to a State court is continued. This section also amends renumbered subsection (c) to remove any doubt that the former law authorizing the district court upon remand to order payment of costs is continued.
2011—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 112–51inserted "1442 or" before "1443".
1996—Subsec. (c). Pub. L. 104–219substituted "any defect other than lack of subject matter jurisdiction" for "any defect in removal procedure" in first sentence.
1991—Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 102–198substituted "removing party" for "petitioner".
1988—Subsec. (c). Pub. L. 100–702, § 1016(c)(1), amended subsec. (c) generally. Prior to amendment, subsec. (c) read as follows: "If at any time before final judgment it appears that the case was removed improvidently and without jurisdiction, the district court shall remand the case, and may order the payment of just costs. A certified copy of the order of remand shall be mailed by its clerk to the clerk of the State court. The State court may thereupon proceed with such case."
Subsec. (e). Pub. L. 100–702, § 1016(c)(2), added subsec. (e).
1964—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 88–352, inserted exception provision.
1949—Subsec. (c). Act May 24, 1949, § 84(a), struck out former subsecs. (c) and (d), renumbered former subsec. (e) to be subsec. (c) and inserted at end of first sentence of new subsec. (c) "and may order the payment of just costs".
Subsec. (d). Act May 24, 1949, § 84(b), added subsec. (d).
Exception to Subsection (d)
Act Aug. 4, 1947, ch. 458, § 3(c),61 Stat. 732, provides in part that the United States shall have the right to appeal from any order of remand entered in any case removed to a United States district court pursuant to the provisions of act Apr. 12, 1926, ch. 115, 44 Stat. 239. These acts referred to herein relate to restrictions on land of the Five Civilized Tribes of Oklahoma and are set out as notes under section 355 of Title 25, Indians.

In his first major foreign policy speech on Wednesday, newly appointed Secretary of State John Kerry delivered a rather unconventional introduction, arguing that Americans need to garner up the "courage" to tackle climate change. Emphasizing security measures that are necessary to maintain national security, Kerry added that new environmental policies and investments in "green" energy technologies should be a priority for his department.
"We as a nation must have the foresight and courage to make the investments necessary to safeguard the most sacred trust we keep for our children and grandchildren," he said, highlighting the "catastrophic" impact climate change will have on future generations: "An environment not ravaged by rising seas, deadly superstorms, devastating droughts, and the other hallmarks of a dramatically changing climate."
The secretary of state called for collective action to curb the "detrimental" effects of climate change, as he propagated a doomsday scenario where sea levels rise and rising temperatures wreak havoc on the Earth:
And let's face it — we are all in this one together. No nation can stand alone. We share nothing so completely as our planet. When we work with others — large and small — to develop and deploy the clean technologies that will power a new world, we're also helping create new markets and new opportunities for America's second-to-none innovators and entrepreneurs to succeed in the next great revolution.
So let's commit ourselves to doing the smart thing and the right thing and truly commit to tackling this challenge. Because if we don't rise to meet it, rising temperatures and rising sea levels will surely lead to rising costs down the road. If we waste this opportunity, it may be the only thing our generations are remembered for. We need to find the courage to leave a far different legacy.
Kerry's contentious delivery, given despite the utter lack of proof of its claims, poses yet another potentially menacing sign for TransCanada's Keystone XL pipeline, the 1,700-mile Canada-U.S. pipeline that will transport Canadian crude oil from the Athabasca Oil Sands in northeastern Alberta, Canada, southeast through the U.S. Midwest, and then all the way down to the Gulf Coast.

Thanks in advance,

PAWTUCKET—About three and a half months after the shooting death of 21-year-old Ryan Almeida at Galego Court, a 20-year-old Providence man was apprehended in Maine and charged with his murder. Pawtucket Police also say that a 17-year-old male has been charged in the crime and one or more additional arrests may be imminent.
The suspect who had fled to Maine was identified as Daquan Watts, of 26 Hollis St., Providence. Due to recently developed information, Pawtucket Police detectives had learned of several suspects, one of whom was Watts. They obtained an arrest warrant for Watts and later learned he was in Maine. With the assistance of the U.S. Marshal's Service and other local authorities, Watts was taken into custody on Tuesday in Lewiston.
On Wednesday, Watts waived extradition and was returned to Rhode Island to face criminal charges. He was arraigned in District Court in Providence Thursday morning on charges of first-degree murder and conspiracy. He did not enter a plea, which is the usual practice at this type of arraignment. He was ordered held without bail at the ACI, pending an April 24 bail hearing.
Additionally, Pawtucket Police say that a 17-year-old male was taken into custody on April 4 for his alleged involvement in the fatal shooting of Almeida. He was also charged with first degree murder and conspiracy.
Maj. Arthur Martins said that investigators believe the shooting of Almeida was done in retaliation for a previous incident, although he declined to provide specific details.

While Europe is becoming increasingly secularized, the rise of religious fundamentalism, whether in the Middle East or Middle America, is dramatically and dangerously dividing opinion around the world. In America and elsewhere, a vigorous dispute between "intelligent design" and Darwinism is seriously undermining and restricting the teaching of science. In many countries religious dogma from medieval times still serves to abuse basic human rights, such as those of women and gay people � and all from a belief in a God whose existence lacks evidence of any kind.
Dawkins attacks God in all his forms, from the sex-obsessed, cruel tyrant of the Old Testament to the more benign, but still illogical, Celestial Watchmaker favoured by some Enlightenment thinkers. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the ultimate improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry and abuses children. In The God Delusion, Dawkins presents a hard-hitting, impassioned rebuttal of religion of all types and does so in the lucid, witty and powerful language for which he is renowned. It is a brilliantly argued, fascinating polemic that will be required listening for anyone interested in this most emotional and important subject.
©Richard Dawkins; (P)Random House
"A spirited and exhilarating read...Dawkins comes roaring forth in the full vigour of his powerful arguments...." (Guardian)
"Everyone should read it. Aethists will love Mr Dawkins's incisive logic and rapier wit...." (The Economist)
Dawkins has been a major contributor to my education on evolution and natural selection. His style and presentation gets complex ideas across with clarity and simplicity. This is an important work that sadly is unlikely to be experienced by many of those who would receive benefit from it. It has all the clarity of Dawkins at his best.
I particularly liked the "two handed" narration. The alternation of voices is used well to give emphasis and variety and never appears contrived in a way that would have been so easy. More audiobook producers of factual titles should consider using this technique
"A Fantastic Read"
The story telling by Mr Dawkins and Miss Ward is really well done, and adds another dimension to a already well written and intelligent book.
The best thing about the story is that it shatters the shackles of being controlled by other people, (which whatever people say is the point of religion, to control you) and opens your eyes to the fact that there are no spirits, magic or anything supernatural that you need to fear, we do good because we are good people and we want to, not because there is some judgmental thing watching us. The world is clearer and safer in that knowledge.
N/A but I will.
Really is a must read for everyone, I want my children and grandchildren to read this, if people actually stop and think about what we are told by these "people of faith" and look at how so much of the world's problems are because of them and there ever crusade to be in control of your lives, the world would be a much happier place.
"Mind expanding"
Sure, he was preaching (pun intended) to the converted, but Richard Dawkins also gives you a lot to think about in this great book. I was facilitated as I listened to different theories on why religious folk can be such nut bags. Give it a listen, test your faith or confirm your convictions.
"Dawkin's slays the Dragon"
Science lights the Dark
I like the last chapter on how special life is and why you don't need any super natural being to explain why it is. Trillions of beings could have been here instead of you, yet you are here. With those odds who needs the lottery.
Dawkin's does not shy away from stating facts that others would shy away from. His arguement, as usual, is well thought out and convincing. He lays out the make believe of religon. To see the world through his world is far more beautiful than one described by the religous.
"An incredibly intriguing conception of human mind"
The narrator was excellent. I will be listening to it again precisely to put things in a firmer perspective. Excellent book for those in search of arguments to invalidate their belief in modern day religion. Fanatical theists may want to think twice before reading or listening to this devilish rendition of the music of nature.
"Everyone Should Read/Listen"
A must! Incredibly interesting and thought provoking! Can't recommend highly enough! Loved it, will be listening again to take it all in again though!
"A compilation of arguments against not thinking"
Richard Dawkins in The God Delusion makes us wonder about a world without God, Religion or Irrational thinking. With extreme patience, Dawkins makes us question the basis of fundamental ideas while explaining the alternatives.
"Entrancing and entertaining"
This book was entrancing.
For years, I've been lead to believe that this book was a poorly researched, disorganized, poorly supported neanderthal rant against religion. I would have to disagree. I found Dawkins' book to be a methodically logical, well-researched, well-argued and entertaining critique of religion.
Astonishingly, I found that as I read this book in 2014, time and time again in 2007 Dawkins had clearly, succinctly and convincingly countered every apologetic argument and claim I parroted from at least 2009 until 2013.
Perhaps a good reason not to rely on the opinions of others, particularly those with a bias.
Eclectic mixer of books of my youth and ones I always meant to read, but didn't.
"An Agreeably Disagreeable Book"
I have read a lot Dawkins and Hitchens and the difference between the two, telling the same tale about gods, is usually quite stark. On this occasion however Dawkins delves down into the arena, get his hands dirty with invective and (particularly at the start and the finish) resorts to rhetoric. Of course, in his inimatable way, he acknowledges he's doing just this and he even has the good grace to sound apologetic about that. However, the method is not as persuasive as I have come to expect from him, although the key (middle) Chapters return to the well learned practices of his past writing, full of sound reasoning, inferences and evidence.
I have some sympathy for the lack of evidence, but then I am already a "convert", to borrow from the iconology of the religiously minded. It is hard to prove a negative, as every lawyer will confirm. Still, I would have been happier with the central Chapters without the soapbox start and finish. That said, the starkness of the language and the boldness of the frontal attack have the consequence of making even a convert think about the extent of their conversion; has it gone far enough? To paraphrase a former PM, this is a book for the true disbelievers. It will probably not persuade anyone else, which is a pity.
Again, the combination of Lalla Ward and Dawkins works well for the listener.
"Not as Good as Chris Hitchins"
I found this audo book hard to follow with the constant change in narrator. I preffered Chris Hitchens book on the same subject.
"Far more than a rant !"
I've both read it and listened to this, several times now, and thought I'd wait a bit before adding my comments.
As an audiobook, it's superb - well read, and yes, the two voices work.
As a book, the content is remarkable, well-thought through and devastating - yes, Dawkins has strongly held views and a real anger about religion, its sources and its consequences. It is the book that atheists and agnostics who previously weren't sure why they felt what they felt have been waiting for - it articulates all their concerns.
Which is why, religious readers, simply dismissing it is both foolish and counter-productive. If we cannot read it, respect its honesty (even if we disagree) and counter its arguments intelligently and thoughtfully, other than by stamping our feet and sticking our fingers in our ears then we have no right to take the high ground. (And getting personal and vindictive is hardly Christian!)
Know your enemy, and work out the best way to deal with him! Are we really so insecure about our beliefs that we cannot counter Dawkins on his own ground, intellectually?
This book is a beautifully narrated, well researched, scientific and philosophical analysis of theism. It comprehensively covers virtually all the academic questions one is likely to ask of religion. In general the cited examples show a bias towards the analysis of Christianity within the United Kingdom and United States of America.
It does however have some idiosyncrasies, the structure and vocabulary has academic tone. The book is not difficult to comprehend, but the meticulous use of referencing does lend itself to frequent repeated listening (perhaps a chapter at a time) if one is to fully appreciate the detail within the work.
"Do not miss this!"
This is an excellent book and it works very well with Richard Dawkins reading with his wife Lalla Ward. Dawkins argues against religion and never looses one's interest. He is knowledgable, amusing and devastating.Listen and open your mind if you are religious or listen and bolster your arguments if you are not. Then buy the book and read it and then read Dawkins' other books. He teaches difficult things so even I understand!
"Refreshingly Brilliant"
The writer puts into plain English, what I have always instinctively felt, this straightforward analysis of what humans insist on believing, and more to the point 'why' they believe often against all common sense, was a joy to listen to...Dawkins examines why religion in all its forms, persists, and tries to explain how this has arisen from a Darwinian standpoint. This type of book is important I feel, due to the rise of the 'intelegent design' lobby particularly in the US, who threaten to cripple the teaching of science in schools... like the other reviewer , I am better off for this pure common sense book...well done Richard
"Never less than interesting"
Dawkins is a evangelical atheist and never prentends to be anything else and this is his reasoning behind his position.
I applaud the use of two voices (Dawkins and Ward) - it works well indeed.
A fascinating argument which occasionally can repeat itself but is nevertheless well worth the investment in time.
"Devastating critique of religion"
Unlike 'Geoff' from Stockton-on-Tees (a previous reviewer of this work), I have had the benefit of actually listening to the book, and having read most of the rest of the Dawkins oeuvre besides. His writing is never less than exhilarating, and very often devastating. For me, the key theme is his critique of religion as an all-purpose excuse-generating mechanism, whether it is providing the justification for wars, discrimination or plain ignorance about the natural world. Alas, those who are too intellectually cowardly to listen beyond the preview will never experience the thrill and/or challenge of Dawkins' arguments.
I also feel that the book benefits from having been presented in this two-narrator audiobook form, and wonder whether Professor Dawkins' publishers have considered giving his other works a similar treatment.
"Food for thought"
The audio content of this recording is excellently presented by Dawkins and his wife, Lalla Ward, who alternate speaking to very good effect. Dawkins is at his most interesting and persuasive when talking about his specialist subject, evolutionary science, and has got a great deal to say about a wide range of other subjects. The book ranges from theology to social sciences to physics to ethics and the listener picks up some fascinating titbits of information and anecdotes along the way.
Unfortunately, I felt that Dawkins? passion for his cause, combined with his layman?s knowledge on the majority of the themes, leads to several rather irritating and poorly thought-out assertions which diminish the overall message of the book. I was left feeling short-changed after yet another sweeping dismissal of a complicated theological area and desperate to hear the other side of the story.
Overall, this book will open your mind to a wide range of discussion topics and give you much food for thought. I would, however, consider the abridged version as 15 hours of the author?s rhetoric gets a little wearying.
"compelling read"
I have both read and listened to this book. As with all of Dawkins books it is both inspiring and easy to read/listen to. His arguments are clear, logical and ultimately are based on provable facts. This book should be in every bedside draw. I do not believe any honest person can read it/listen to it and still have any belief in a god.
"A life changer"
This book has changed my life. I have never believed in God, even when I was forced to go to Sunday school as a young child, it always seemed nonsense. This book gave me the backup, evidence and examples to reaffirm what I always thought. I suspect that this will be most useful to those who are in the "not sure" camp.
It is highly entertaining and would strongly recommend it.
The aim of the book: to turn the reader into someone who denies all things supernatural; worked on me. And I feel all the better for it - and I didn't know I would.

057 Magnesium Ball Head with Top Lock Quick Release
DESCRIPTIONA professional ball head built for compatibility with 057 carbon fiber tripods, the 057 is extremely precise, providing extra-smooth movements. Compact, ergonomic, powerful, durable and made of lightweight magnesium, the 057 also has uniquely innovative features like the exclusive 90°-105° portrait angle selector, designed to give better, easier camera control and framing accuracy.
The 057 is complemented by the new Q6 Top Lock quick release system, developed to offer photographers a fast, easy to use and very secure camera quick release mechanism suitable for heavy pro equipment. The camera plate clicks into the clamp from above, and as soon as it engages, it triggers a safety pin that stops the plate and camera from sliding out accidentally. Even before the clamp is locked, the camera is securely supported. The clamp has 3 bubble spirit levels (one for each axis of rotation) to facilitate precise framing and help produce straight images in-camera, ensuring the camera's full frame is usable and reducing post-production time. The Q6 system is also compatible with Arca-style quick release plates and heads from other manufacturers.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Gold futures fell Wednesday, hit by a selloff that sank prices by as much as $36 an ounce, with the market blaming the move on a combination of technical selling, the expiration of options and futures contracts, deflationary concerns and a stronger U.S. dollar.
"Gold's volatility is never to be underestimated," said Jason Rotman, president of Lido Isle Advisors, a Newport Beach, Calif.-based alternative-investment firm. "Markets are emotional as well as rational ... and we think an initial selling blast this morning simply caused more liquidation selling to occur."
Gold for December delivery US:GCZ2 dropped $25.80, or 1.5%, to settle at $1,716.50 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. It fell by as much as $36.80 to touch a low of $1,705.50 during the session.
GOP senators critical after Rice meeting
Simon Constable and Sara Murray discuss Ambassador Susan Rice's attempt to repair her standing with Senate Republicans.
"There were no fat-finger trades or technical errors," a CME Group US:CME spokesman told MarketWatch. "This was a market-driven selloff."
Concerns over deflation may have been the culprit, said Richard Hastings, macro strategist at Global Hunter Securities
"Poor preliminary results in [U.S.] fiscal-cliff discussions are sending a wave of deflation fears into the global market system," he said.
That's "being amplified by an alternative interpretation of the Greece situation, that the Greece debt solution could pave the road to haircuts on outstanding Greece bonds."
"All of these are deflationary in nature and this nature is always a natural disaster for gold prices," Hastings explained. "But gold will come right back after other assets take a beating."
The fiscal cliff refers to the hundreds of billion of dollars in tax increases and spending cuts that will kick in from January unless U.S. politicians reach an agreement to avert the event.
"Gold is range bound — $1,800 on the upside and $1,650 on the downside," said Vedant Mimani, lead portfolio manager of the Atyant Capital Global Opportunities Fund, and "the breakout or breakdown will be driven by resolution or failure to resolve government debt concerns."
On Wednesday, President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner voiced hopes for a deal to avert the cliff, sparking a climb in U.S. equities. See: U.S. stocks gain as politicians talk deal.
More selloff factors
Mark O'Byrne, executive director at GoldCore in Dublin, said the selling in gold was by speculative players on Comex and was probably "computer-driven algorithm trading."
"It could also have been by a hedge fund or bank trying to protect a large concentrated short position," he said.

Hello Everyone, first time posting on this forum
I have a 5month old female Blue nose (Razors Edge) Pit Bull. She is my sweetheart and so far is crate trained and potty trained. As far as commands, she knows how to sit but that's it so far. I got her at 10 weeks and mom and dad were on site as well as other family dogs and children! She was socialized well as a pup and went the full qo weeks on mama's milk I've had her on BB Wilderness Grain Free Salmon since day 1. I've administered all 3 of her 5 in 1 shots to date. Next month is rabies shots and Spay!
Here are my questions. I live in Arizona and there are many dog friendly bars and establishments here. She socializes often and every now and then I take her to the dog park but I think I'm going to stop that as I'm not a huge fan or socializing in that setting (too many variables with other dogs and filth in parks)
Issues I'm having:
1) Some days are better than others. WALKING ON A LEASH!!! It's not so much that she pulls (she does a tad, nothing too bad) it's that she simply wants to do her own thing on a walk. She wants to stop every 15 feet and smell this and taste that etc...which is fine every once in a while, but more times than not she's simply stubborn and I end up having to drag her (not drag, but pull) to get her to follow me. As much as possible I have her walk by my side...not in front and not behind. Problem is, when she decides she wants to stop...she STOPS. My question is, how do I get her to be more fluent and actually go on a WALK without distraction and stopping?! I am very aware that I must be dominant and the pack leader so I don't let her dictate our walks.
2) Jumping up when playing with other dogs of various sizes. Luna is very submissive and sweet when meeting a new dog. She knows how to meet and greet small dogs as well as big dogs. She crouches down and lets the other dog come to her then gives kisses THEN after the courting stage is done she wants to play! Problem is, I don't like her jumping up and using her paws to play. How do I keep her on all 4's?
Thanks in advance for any replies!!

With heavy rain pounding many parts of the country, there's a good chance that you'll drive through high water that could damage your vehicle. Even though your vehicle may not have been flooded or completely covered in water, the Car Care Council recommends that motorists follow these guidelines to check for damage due to water intrusion or contamination:
Hours spent in a hot, stifling vehicle can spoil a weekend getaway or vacation. Conducting a periodic under-hood inspection may help you spot air conditioning problems before they spoil your trip.
Here's what to look for: Note: Always be extremely careful any time you're under the hood while the engine is running. Stay away from all rotating components with your hands, clothing, and hair, and always wear eye protection around a running engine.
1. Are A/C component mounting bolts in place and tightly secured?
Synthetic oils are promoted by manufacturers of motor oils as having longer life. In fact, makers of many newer cars are now specifying that synthetic oils be used, and many more car owners are opting to use synthetic oil in their cars and SUVs. Yet, when it's time to change the oil, many car owners are unsure as to whether they need a special oil filter with synthetic oils.
By changing a few habits, motorists can do their part in helping the environment, say the experts at the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). ASE recommends regular vehicle maintenance and better driving habits as two easy-to-implement strategies. What's more, improved automotive habits will help your vehicle last longer and command a better resale price.
The following tips from ASE can put you on the road to environmentally conscious car care:
The automatic transmission is a pretty incredible device when you get a chance to look inside of it. The technology that is needed to eliminate manual shift transmission needs to have electronics and hydraulics to work in unity. The transmission fluid flows throughout the whole transmission like oil in an engine. It cleans, lubricates, cools and actuates the different assemblies that cause the automatic shifting to occur for thousands of miles. Rubber seals, gaskets, shift valves and clutches all must perform their jobs flawlessly or the automatic transmission is useless.
The power steering system is basically a hydraulic assist system that uses oil under pressure to assist in moving the front wheels back and forth as you drive. When you turn the steering wheel, a spool valve directs the system pressure towards the direction you turn the wheel. Fluid is constantly pumped from the power steering pump through the system when the engine is running. After the fluid passes through the steering rack, it returns as a low pressure fluid back to the reservoir that maybe mounted on the pump.
It's a fact that deposits form in every fuel system, but the amount and how quickly they form depend on the quality of fuel and oil used, on personal driving styles and on engine type.
Most fuel-injected vehicles are equipped with a mass air flow sensor, or "MAF" sensor to measure the amount and density of air entering the engine. This is information the computer uses to determine how much fuel to inject into the engine for combustion as air enters the cylinders. Ignition timing is also affected. The MAF sensor wire gets dirty with accumulated debris, oil, air filter fibers, dust and pollen. This can cause inaccurate readings and negatively affect the air to fuel ratio.
Accumulations of dirt, grease and contaminants in your vehicle's electrical system can eventually lead to contact failure and malfunction. After cleaning contacts and connections with QD Electronic Cleaner, follow with technician grade Di-Electric Grease from CRC.
CRC Di-Electric Grease seals, protects, lubricates, insulates and prevents water from getting into electrical connections and contacts, helping prevent corrosion, which can damage wiring and cause malfunctions. Corrosion on lamp connectors and wiring causes bulbs to burn hotter, shortening their life.
Debris, dust, flux, oil, grease and corrosion build up on electrical contacts and can lead to contact failure and malfunction. The problems show up as electrical contacts sticking or welding, overheating of contacts, shorting, excess current or voltage, and overall poor performance. QD Electronic Cleaner from CRC Industries is a precision cleaner for your sensitive electronic equipment and parts like circuits and computer components and it improves the electrical connections in your vehicle. It's plastic safe, dries quickly and leaves no residue.

|Retired Fireman Dies From Burns in House Fire
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 17 February 2011 06:33
A North Wilkesboro man —a retired fireman— died early Tuesday from burns sustained in a fire at his home on Liberty Knoll Drive, off Liberty Grove Church Road, Monday afternoon.
The Wilkes Journal-Patriot reports Robert Franklin Dancy, 72, died early Tuesday at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center.
Wilkes fire officials say first responders and firemen were called to the home at 5:42 p.m. Monday, and that Dancy's clothes ignited from a burner on the electric stove.
No one else was at the home at the time of the fire. Dancy was found by a family member who had left the house briefly. He had sustained second and third degree burns over 75 percent of his body.
Firemen reported minor structural damage in the kitchen of the house and smoke damage in other areas.

Blissdom is a blogging conference that is going to be held in Dallas, TX in March. I attended last year and left completely excited about blogging. It was such an encouraging experience, and it also helped that I had some really great roommates (Carrie, Katy & Hayley).
I'm very excited to be a Community Leader at Blissdom this year! Community Leaders are put in place to help answer questions, to meet new attendees, to lead discussion at tables, etc.
The table discussions were my favorite part of Blissdom last year, so I'm glad to be able to be a greater part of that.
This year, I feel better prepared since I have been once before. I know what to focus on, and what isn't a big deal.
As I was preparing for Blissdom last year, I searched for blogs that offered advice about attending Blissdom, or just a blogging conference in general.
And of all the blogs I read, the most common piece of advice was to wear comfortable shoes.
But do you know what didn't really matter that much at Blissdom? Wearing comfortable shoes.
Of course there will a decent amount of walking, but there's also a lot of sitting. So, wear what you want to wear. If you feel best in a pair of wedges or heels, wear those. If you like flats better, stick with those.
A few things that I would emphasize preparing for:
1. You'll receive a pile of swag. Some stuff you'll want to keep, some stuff you may want to ditch. Keep room in your suitcase for the items you want to bring it home.
2. You'll want a laptop/ipad/notebook to take notes during sessions. You'll need to carry it around with you all day so think about what sort of bag is best. You may recieve hand outs during sessions, or more swag from sponsor booths. Leave some space in your bag for that.
3. Have your business cards ready to be handed out. One of the first things that happens when you meet another blogger, is that you exchange biz cards. Instead of fumbling in your bag, keep some in your pocket, or somewhere that allows you easy access.
3. 5 Think about how to introduce yourself. I did not prepare for this. Here's how a conversation would go with a new blogger.
"Hi, I'm Kate, nice to meet you!"
"Hi, I'm Rebecca, nice to meet you too! What is your blog?"
"The Small Things Blog. What is your blog?"
"The Big Things Blog. What do you blog about?"
"Umm…like hair and beauty stuff. Sometimes an outfit. My cats. Ya know, just stuff."
I'm sure the person I was meeting was thinking, "wow. real interesting. sounds like I should hop on thesmallthingsblog right away."
Instead, if I would have prepared a clear and logical sentance to reply with, I could have made my blog sound a lot better.
Maybe something along the lines of, "I write a hair and beauty blog, and share a new hair tutorial video every week where I teach women how to style their hair a new way. The rest of the week is filled with posts about my personal style, a new lipstick I found, or a funny story about my cats."
4. You will leave the conference teeming with ideas for your blog. You may feel overwhelmed. You may also feel very excited. These are all good things. But it's a lot all at once. Try to write down as much as you can, so when you return home and are able to process everything, you can refer back to your notes.
5 . You'll experience an overwhelming sense of community and support. Last year I vividly remember the feeling of "these are my people". Ironically, I have never had the "these are my people" feeling at a hair show. Maybe it's all the hair judgment going on . . .
Overall, a blogging conference is a great place to create new friendships, and transform online friendships to real life ones. It also helped me step back and evaluate my blog so I could see what needed improvement and what I was doing well.
I grabbed a few of your questions from the facebook fan page, but feel free to leave any other questions in the comments below.
1. Lyndsey asked "What is the best conference for new bloggers to attend?"
The only two conferences I've been to are Blissdom and the Becoming Conference. I spoke at Becoming so I didn't get the "feel" of being an attendant, however it was not a conference about blogging. So, between those two, the only one I'd recommend for a blogger is Blissdom. I've heard about a handful of other conferences, like Snap, Alt, Influence, Allume and Blogher (which I'm attending this year), and I think each conference has pro's and cons.
From my understanding, Snap focuses on the handmade world, Alt majors on design/blogging/lifestyle blogging/etc, Influence is a mix of a Christian conference + a blogging strategy conference, Allume is a Christian conference mixed with blogging strategy as well, and Blogher is primarily a blogging conference. (Correct me if I'm wrong about any of these)
Blissdom might be a good one to start with due to it's size, the great speakers, and the community in encourages.
2. Gabbie asked, "Would going to Blissdom benefit a blog/web/graphic designer?"
You probably won't learn any new design techniques at Blissdom, unless you meet other designers and chat with them about it, but you will meet potential clients and be able to network and grow your business!
3. Lindsay asked, "What is the one thing to expect to take away from a conference?"
one word : Inspiration. I was so impressed by the talented bloggers and business women I met at Blissdom. It's motiving and encouraging to hear ideas and learn from peers in the same industry?world?what would you call "blogging?"
So, are you attending Blissdom this year? Or any other conferences? What have been the most valuble things you've learned at conferences in the past?
