The Future of Capitalism (and economics)
The opening session today in the ongoing OECD Forum 2010 was on the future of capitalism, where economic historian Anatole Kaletsky argued that "we're entering a new period of pragmatism, when ideology will give way to a more "common sense" approach." Arguably, this is not such a radical notion; the financial crisis has shown in a dramatic way that there have been some serious cracks in what has commonly been accepted as "good" economic policy. It is easy to blame greed and carelessness in the financial sector, but that hardly goes to the heart of the problem. At the end of the day, even if the greed and carelessness of a few "evil bankers" really is to blame, policy has to change if the economic structures have been conducive to making it cause despair for millions of people.
Aside from highlighting dysfunctional economic structures and the need for reform, a very immediate consequence of the crisis is that Governments have been [Read more →]

Vulnerability of Open Capital Flows: IMF and WB return to Ragnar Nurkse
According to the Washington consensus, open international capital flows were essential to developing countries in order to achieve cheap financing and efficient allocation of resources. In particular, the IMF and the World Bank were stalwart defenders of floating the exchange rate and letting the market forces determine the inflows and outflows of capital of a country.
Classical development economists, such as the Estonian Ragnar Nurkse, pointed out the fragility of relying on external financing as early as 1944 and paradoxically laid the basis for the founding of the Bretton Woods institutions (IMF and World Bank). With Bretton Woods came the managed flow of international capital, but which collapsed in 1968 and led to subsequent liberalization. In receiving aid and loans from the World Bank and IMF, developing countries were pressured to liberalize and open their economies to foreign investors.
After the Asian crisis of 1997, more attention was paid to fragility that arises when foreign investors withdraw capital and local currencies collapse. The problem is especially acute when locals have taken up loans denominated in foreign currencies, thus the depreciation causes their debts to sky-rocket. But it is first recently that mainstream economists have argued for letting developing countries control the capital inflows.
I find it very warming that both the IMF and World Bank seem to have changed tack, and returned to their more Nurksean / Keynesian roots. In this very interesting blogpost, Jamus Lim of the World Bank presents data that out of 189 major capital account liberalizations since 1970, at least 154 have led to a severe financial crisis! He concludes by quoting a recent IMF staff paper.
"Finally, the the selective use (PDF) of capital controls in a broad policy mix may be useful in helping moderate surges in portfolio inflows, especially when they are directed toward debt rather than equity. "
Striking words when coming from Washington indeed. More depressingly though, Estonia seems to have forgotten the lessons from its premier economist.
If you are interested in the topic of international financial fragility, the excellent work of Jan Kregel and Hyman Minsky is recommended.

"Betting Against Home Owners" is Betting For Affordable Housing – A case for Goldman Sachs doing "God's work"
In the still ongoing political smear campaign against Goldman Sachs conducted by the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations, the latter has been particularly enraged by Goldman Sachs' supposed "bet against home owners". That is, because Goldman Sachs was net short exposure to mortgage-related securities, policy-makers have been arguing that the bank was contributing to pushing prices down, and in an evil way benefiting from the ruin of hard-working regular Americans.
Now, first of all, I am unsure about whether Goldman's supposed "big short" really had a significant impact on housing prices. Arguably, the collapse of the U.S. housing market in 2007-2008 was a necessary consequence of unsustainably rapid price increases brought about by horribly easy credit in the years before, and would have been just as painful for regular hard-working Americans regardless of whether Goldman had a net short position or not. One could perhaps even argue that the crash would have been worse if Goldman had not been as hedged as they were.
Above: Charles Ponzi, the model banker, according to the Senate Subcommittee on Investigations
Nevertheless, it is interesting for the sake of argument to assume that Goldman's supposed "big short" did in fact push down the price of property, which seems [Read more →]

NBIM, 'Alternative Investments' and so-called superior returns
We've previously endorsed the Norwegian Government Pension Fund's (GPF) approach to enhancing global corporate governance. Recently, NBIM – the manager of the fund – was also instructed to allocate about five percent of its portfolio into unlisted real estate. I consider this decision quite bad for the following reasons.
Property investments are notoriously illiquid. Currently the reserves of the GPF is used to cover the domestic fiscal budget deficit. As wee have recently seen, the deficit and need for fiscal expansive policy will usually be the highest when liquidity is the lowest. Illiquidity implies below real value prices and as such NBIM will always be selling its real estate investments when prices are the worst (this is in a longer term perspective when oil revenues are actually smaller than the budget deficit)
It was the Yale endowment fund under management by David Swensen that started advocating that long term investors such as the GPF should allocate more of its investments [Read more →]

If you were wondering whether Norway has been affected by the "crisis"
The following were (seriously) the top three headlines last night on the RSS feed I get from Dagens Næringsliv, Norway's biggest business and economics newspaper:
LONG, LONG LINE OF GOOD WINES (Lang, lang rekke med gode viner) – APPEALING SYRAH-WINES (Tiltrekkende syrah-viner) – ABDUCTED FINANCIAL ADVISOR (Bortførte finansrådgiver)
That last link is foreign news, of course, about a something that happened in Germany. So far, it appears we are still living the good life.

Why Iceland is Doing the Right Thing by Not Paying Britain and the Netherlands
I was recently reading some older posts on Andrew Clavell's Financial Crookery, and came across a post from early January on the decision made by Iceland's President Ólafur Ragnar Grímsson to let the so-called Icesave bill (with which Iceland agrees to pay back Britain and the Netherlands the deposits made by its citizens that were lost by its banks) be subject to a popular referendum that it surely would not survive. It didn't, on March 6th 93% of voters wanted it dead, compared to a diminutive 1,6% who wanted Iceland to [Read more →]

Lehman Brothers' Banzai Charge – A technical note for the layman
Above: "I think this is a very good death", Lord Katsumoto tells a perplexed Tom Cruise, soon to become The Last Samurai
Like Custer at Little Bighorn, Lehman Brothers bravely removed the possibility of surviving by means of a tactical retreat in case they were befallen by a great host of hostile Indians by making use of the now infamous repo 105 contracts. Andrew Clavell, author of Financial Crookery, posted an interesting article on how and why they work here. Especially recommended for those of our readers who aren't working with or haven't studied a lot of finance or derivatives.

North Korean Incentive Structures for Economists
A saying goes that "acceptable unemployment is defined as the level at which the Government economist writing the report still has a job." Certainly, it can be argued that in most countries, economists tend to be quite insulated from the consequences of the policies they propose. Apparently, this is not the case in North Korea. After a major currency reform last year failed completely, the high-level economist Pak Nam Gi, former finance director for the North Korean "Worker's Party", was convicted of treason for "ruining the national economy as the son of a big landlord who infiltrated the ranks of revolutionaries" and executed by firing squad.
The policy environment leading the execution of the North Korean economist, who was most likely a scapegoat, is hardly one that should be emulated. However, I can't help but think about how the U.S. or Europe might have looked in the wake of the financial crisis if a more North Korean approach had been taken during the witch-hunt that followed it (and is still ongoing). Could you charge Richard Fuld with treason for over-leveraging, or Eugene Fama for trying to make people think that capital markets are efficient?. Certainly one would expect the emergence of a slightly more risk-averse financial sector.
For a more realistic discussion about discretionary power being given to regulators, check out The Epicurean Dealmaker's recent post about fire alarms, strong men, and big axes.
Thanks goes to loyal Evolution-Revolution reader and good friend Jan Petter Janssen, creator of Developing Trader, for the tip about Pak Nam Gi.

Newtown Marches For Gun Control
January 28, 2013 2:00 PM
Residents of Newtown, Connecticut gathered with thousands of others on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Saturday for a march in favor of gun control. About 100 people traveled from Newtown, the scene of the December elementary school massacre that claimed the lives of 20 children and six adults. The march included participants from New Jersey, New York and Philadelphia as well. They marched down Constitution Avenue toward the Washington Monument, where speakers called for a ban on assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition. Education Secretary Arne Duncan addressed the crowd, vowing that he and President Obama would work to enact gun control policies.

Sept. 26, 2013
MADISON, Wis. -- With the non-conference season over, the Wisconsin volleyball team is preparing for its home Big Ten Conference opener this weekend. The Badgers (11-1) kick of another tough season of Big Ten play at home against Purdue (9-2) Friday and face Indiana (8-3, 0-1) Saturday, both at 7 p.m. in the Field House.
This weekend marks an exciting beginning for first-year head coach Kelly Sheffield as he launches his Big Ten career with Wisconsin, facing some of the toughest teams in the country. Sheffield is no stranger to Big Ten teams as he has faced at least one Big Ten team his last seven years at Dayton and Albany, achieving a 4-13 record against conference foes.
After playing a variety of teams from different conferences during the non-conference season, Sheffield is looking ahead to Big Ten play.
"You're not really getting up for a Big Ten team and then going down to a different conference for a few matches. You're playing back to back against some of the best programs in the country," said Sheffield.
"I'm stoked to go against (the Big Ten). I think our players are (too). That's why you come to this conference to play against and with the best. We're looking forward to this opportunity."
After losing their first match of the season against Kansas on Sept. 13, Sheffield's team is on a five-match winning streak, including a first-place finish at the NC State Invitational this past weekend.
"(We) had a good weekend out there at NC State and got challenged by three really good teams," said Sheffield. "(I) thought we played pretty well. I thought we had our moments of battling and figuring out ways to win."
The team welcomed junior Crystal Graff back this past weekend after she missed the first nine matches of the season with a foot injury. But Sheffield continues to play with an unsettled lineup due to other injuries. This doesn't seem to worry him too much.
"Well, we're getting healthier," said Sheffield. "We're not going to get any more bodies back than what we had this past weekend... What we've got is what we're going with, but I think there's a confidence. We've been through this a few times and we've come out with some wins. So there's not a panic of people that are missing or somebody's not going to be in there and people are worried about it. There's a lot of confidence that's been gained based on every single week (that the lineup) has been different."
Friday not only marks the beginning of Big Ten play but also the continuation of a time-honored tradition. Each year, Wisconsin honors former head coach Steve Lowe in its conference opener. Lowe, who was 108-64 from 1986-90, led the team to its first Big Ten title, NCAA tournament appearance and national ranking in 1990. Lowe, who passed away from lung cancer in 1991, is also remembered with the Steve Lowe Memorial Scholarship, given each year to a play who personifies Lowe's love for the game. Senior Annemarie Hickey is this year's recipient.
The Badgers are 15-7 in 22 Steve Lowe night matches.

Reminders not working property / efficiently after purchasing Premium
Asked on Mar 30, 2014 - 02:19 UTC
I purchased premium but the reminders are not working where you add a time in. "Remind on a specific time" is grayed out. It won't let me use the drop down arrow.
I just got a reminder to work but first had to save the task and then go back and add a reminder!
All responses
Replied on Mar 30, 2014 - 23:55 UTC
Hi Suz,
For that reminder type to be available, the due date of the task needs to have a time added. So instead of a due date of "today" it would need "today at 2pm" then you can choose the relative reminder.
Replied on Apr 01, 2014 - 00:08 UTC
Thanks Brendon. Okay, I think I've got the hang of it now. Cheers.

Naomi Ruth Hiatt, 94, passed away on Wednesday, June 3, 2014, in Redmond. She was born on August 4, 1920, to P.N. (Phil) and Emily Briggs in the rural North Carolina mountains between Brevard and Hendersonville and was the last of nine children.
During the Depression, many of Naomi's family moved to the Lakeview area. She graduated from Lakeview High School in 1938. Naomi married Chester Hiatt, also from Lakeview, on New Year's Day in 1939 in Reno, Nev.
After World War II, the Hiatt and Robinson families of Lakeview formed the Silver Creek Lumber Company and moved the mill and logging operations to Burns and then to Fossil. Naomi spent many happy years in Fossil where she belonged to the Daughters of Rebekah. She became an avid gardener and volunteered at the Wheeler County Fair.
Chet and Naomi came to Redmond in the mid-fifties where they established Hiatt's Red Lava Rock Company. Naomi was the bookkeeper for the business. The Deschutes County Extension County Committee was a favorite activity. Naomi lived in the same Redmond house on 12th Street for 57 years. Trailer camping and fishing in small creeks in Oregon, including the Lakeview area, was the experience that both she and Chet relished. Music was not far behind and both played over the years (she the guitar and Chet the mandolin) with the Phillip Briggs family of Lakeview.
Naomi was preceded in death by her husband Chester in 1989. Naomi is survived by her son and daughter- in-law Larry Ross and Angela Hiatt of Vacaville, Calif.; daughter and son-in-law Barbara and Jim McCormick of Houston, Texas and Black Butte Ranch. Grandchildren Andrew McCormick of Canby and his wife Brett; Gretchen Hiatt Kentner of Alfalfa and her husband Todd; Anne McCormick Robison of Ashland and her husband Jason; and Jonathon Hiatt of Salem and his wife Amy; great-grand children Ariel McCormick of San Antonio, Texas; Quinn and Taryn McCormick of Canby; Adelle and Rowan Robison of Ashland; and Cecelia, Nora and Gillian Naomi Hiatt of Salem. One great-great-granddaughter, Vida McCormick Powell, of San Antonio, Calif.
Memorial services have not been scheduled for Naomi at this time. She will be buried beside Chester in the Redmond Memorial Cemetery.

Merrimack teen author, a Trinity High junior, sees success with children's books
Now, at the age of 16, Emily Murphy is not only the author of a published book, but she already has two fiction children's books under her belt.
Her journey as an author began during a three-hour car ride home from the Newport Mansions in Newport, R.I., several years ago. After touring the Marble House mansion and learning about the owner's rebellious side toward the rules of Newport society, Murphy decided to create her own, younger character who breaks all of the rules in the late 1800s.
The main character, Kissimmee, is a 9-year-old girl who spends the summer at Pristol Hall in Newport during the Gilded Age trying to avoid her mother's proper notions by following her own passion for fun.
"Kissimmee's Newport: 1894," is a 200-page book detailing Kissimmee's daily routine of wearing pants, befriending the mansion staff and playing billiards with her brother - despite societal expectations that she should be doing otherwise.
"This is a fun book. There is nothing really serious about it," said Murphy, a junior at Trinity High School. "You can't analyze it. It is pretty straight forward."
A Snowy Day Publishing in Bedford published the book in September, printing 250 copies of the children's book. Murphy has already received her first royalty check, and is thrilled about the unique opportunity at such a young age.
Murphy, of Merrimack, began writing short stories in first grade when she created a series of "Emily the Goods" books, a guide to various topics such as fires, potty training and adjusting to a new family.
She has come a long way since the days she stapled together her little guide books, as "Kissimmee's Newport: 1894" is now available through Barnes & Noble, Amazon as well as Nook and Kindle devices.
The Newport Mansions are also interested in selling her book at their gift shop, which Murphy says is a tremendous honor.
"Writing has greatly enhanced my life, and now I can go on to say that I am a published author," she said. "But, it really hasn't changed my life, as I would be writing regardless."
Murphy's mother, Janet, admits that her daughter is slightly modest.
"She doesn't like to brag," Janet said of Emily. "We are incredibly proud of her. Neither me or my husband have the gift of writing, so this is a whole new world to explore."
Emily's classmate, Melissa McCormick, agreed to illustrate the cover of her book, which portrays the main character, Kissimmee, with a wide grin standing in front of the summer mansion.
"I'm really excited about this book. This has been a big opportunity for me," said McCormick, who has taken classes at the Currier Museum of Art in Manchester.
McCormick, also 16, says she may study in art in college, and would love the chance to become an illustrator. As for Murphy, her future is still up in the air. She is undecided where to attend college, but is leaving several options open. She may pursue a career in creative writing or film, and is currently taking a media journalism class.
In her spare time, Murphy enjoys writing poetry. She previously had her poem, "Swing," published in the Celebration of Poets spring 2011 northeast edition. Around the same time "Kissimmee's Newport: 1894" was published, Murphy also published a second book that she co-authored with her friend, Mary Leonarczyk, titled "Mary Hartford."
Leonarczyk is also a junior at Trinity High School. Their book is a diary-written story for young teens that takes place on a large estate in England.

The White House warned yesterday that hackers and "hacktivist" groups have the intent and capability to target U.S. companies and steal confidential data. A new executive strategy explains that the threat of corporate espionage and theft of intellectual property via hackers is on the rise and will pose serious threats to the economic well-being of the country unless it is curtailed.
The strategy does not draw discrete distinctions between state-sponsored hacking efforts and those of rogue groups or individuals. It does highlight the fact that foreign competitors of U.S. corporations, some with ties to foreign governments, have increased their efforts to steal trade secret information through the recruitment of current or former employees with the know-how to exploit vulnerabilities in American companies' information systems.
In its analysis, the strategy emphasizes that "there are indications that U.S. companies, law firms, academia, and financial institutions are experiencing [increased] cyber intrusion activity against electronic repositories containing trade secret information."
The White House then lays out several strategic action items to include:
The release of this strategy is a significant development in the cyber security space. It clearly demonstrates that the White House and Congress are laying the groundwork for increased regulation and legislation in this area. U.S. companies should begin to prepare for increased oversight, regulatory requirements, and increased enforcement efforts by the federal government on all matters related to cyber security and information management.

McMenamins Black Widow Porter (2014)
Since we're solidly in the Halloween season (what, you haven't seen the pumpkins and black cats and strange lights in windows lately?), one beer you can and should seek out here in the Pacific Northwest is McMenamins' Black Widow Porter.

Many People Take Part In Free Prostate And Colon Cancer Screenings
More than 54,000 people die from colon or prostate cancer nationwide and it's become the number one killer among Latinos. There is a list of reasons why many people don't get regularly screened for cancer. "People are busy, people may not have easy access to healthcare. People may not want to find out. They might have some eternal worry and they kind of don't want to know on a certain level because they are afraid of it," said Dr. Alan Cartmell of the Comprehensive Blood and Cancer Center in Bakersfield.

Pro-Obama Biographer Admits Obama Family History Based On Myth
Posted By aaron On June 23, 2012 @ 2:47 pm In Old Infowars Posts Style,U.S. News | Comments Disabled
Godfather Politics
June 23, 2012
Yet another Barack Obama biography has been recently published. This time it was written by someone friendly to Obama. David Maraniss, in his book, Barack Obama: The Story, sought to chronicle the early years of young Obama and tell of things that molded and shaped him into being the person he is today.
Maraniss diligently researched as much as he could about Obama's childhood, including the relationship between his parents. He looked up records and interviewed as many people as possible that may have had some knowledge of Barack Obama Sr and Ann Dunham, his father and mother.
For instance, Maraniss found out from close friends of Obama Sr in his 1961-62 college days that most of them never knew or heard of Ann or a child. One of those friends, a Cambodian named Kiri Tith was supposedly very close to Obama Sr. Tith told Maraniss that he had met Ann, but not though Barack and that he never had any clue that Ann and Barack even knew each other, let alone that she got pregnant by him. Yet Obama Jr tells everyone how close his parents were in those days.
Maraniss also notes that according to Obama Jr's birth certificate, his family lived in the home of Dunham's parents at 6085 Kalanianole Highway. But Obama Sr informed the INS that only Ann and her baby lived there without him. Yet, in his investigation, Maraniss learned that at that time, the Pratt family lived with Ann's parents at that house and there was no room for Ann and her baby to stay there. When he interviewed the Pratt's daughter, she had no recollection of Ann or the baby staying at the house.

Cloth banknote for 3 strings of cash
From China, AD 1933
Cloth note issued in the revolutionary base areas of Communist China
This note shows the hammer and sickle, symbolic of communism, joined by the star of China. At the top of the note, reading from right to left, is the call 'Workers of the world unite!'.
The communist revolution in China started in the 1920s. Mao Zedong (1893-1976) realized the revolutionary potential of the rural Chinese people, and recruited them to the communist Red Army, promising fairer distribution of land. The revolution destroyed the land-owning landlord gentry class and reshaped the face of rural of China. In the early 1930s the Communists established revolutionary base areas, known as 'Soviets'. Many of the Soviets issued coins and paper money.
This cloth note was issued by the Workers and Farmers Bank of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Provincial Soviet Government. This Soviet (on the borders of Sichuan and Shaanxi provinces) was founded in 1933. It issued a wide range of notes and copper and silver coins between 1933 and 1935, which became very popular. This note was issued in 1933, a year before the Chinese government launched its 'extermination campaign' against the Communists, forcing them to abandon the Soviets and set out on the Long March.

ObamaCare: First, Do Some Harm — Then, Exploit the Crisis
The scientific and medical ignorance of Obama and Congress assures the complete failure of health care reform.
September 10, 2009 - 12:51 am
"First, do no harm" has been the guiding philosophy for the medical profession since Hippocrates. It still dominates medical science, technology, and clinical practice. That is why I trust my doctor to do his or her best for me, and that is why at times I have changed doctors when I thought they fell short of that standard.
That is why the cost of developing one medication to FDA standards is about a billion dollars. Entire technical professions have grown up over the past century, dedicated to finding and developing new medical molecules with remarkable sophistication. They are constantly testing thousands of promising drugs, digging into life's basic biochemical pathways, and finding ways to make precise changes in body chemistry to save lives. We benefit from that extraordinary science every time we take an aspirin.
It's an amazing success story, and by far most people in it are personally admirable and dedicated. Needless to say, our pop media understands nothing about it. Sheer ignorance is a big reason the media and political elites can't think straight about medical care. They just don't understand even the basics. There are no scientists, no engineers, and few physicians in Congress.
We live in an amazingly arrogant age, at least in politics and the more self-indulgent fields of academia.
Obama is a product of the non-scientific academic world, where Marxist pseudo-philosophy is popular, as long as the colleges themselves can live off the fat of the (capitalist) land. Our academics are revolutionaries who never take a personal risk, just like our Democrats. That's why the philosophy behind Obama's Marxoid takeover of our health care seems to be:
Who cares if we do harm? We'll fix it later! If it's politically convenient! Whatever we do cannot hurt the apparatchiks, the ruling elite, who will have their own medical system.
Congress and federal bureaucrats will keep their current insurance plans. Academics will keep their tenure and their soft lifestyle at the expense of taxpayers. It'll be a two-layered system straight out of Soviet Moscow: the nomenklatura versus the workers.
ObamaCare is really, really cheap compared to that one billion dollars for testing a single drug. The cost of testing and developing HR 3200, the current and ever-changing plan for ObamaCare, is zero dollars — because no testing and development has ever been done on more than 1,000 complicated pages. The bill has been thrown together in back-room deals between lobbyists and staffers in Congress. It's like a hugely complex computer program that's never been tested to see if it will run.
How likely is it to work? It won't, which is why there will be tens of thousands of pages of regulations. And if it runs, how likely is it to make one-sixth of the U.S. economy cheaper and better, as Obama claims?
This is the ultimate snake oil.
ObamaCare is a really sweet deal – if you believe in abysmal ignorance and wild guesswork as a basis for turning over control of a half-trillion-dollar-per-year medical system to a Central Committee of Wise Heads. No sane real-world organization could work this way. But power has its perks, and one of them is to dictate a revolution in the United States without ever trying to understand its consequences.
If Obama were running a drug company he would be criminally liable for fraud. Morally he is no different from a drug maker who skips all the testing, peddling thalidomide around 1960, when 10 to 20 thousand people died from a poorly tested drug.

You'll know them soon enough.
Old news because I purchased tix a few weeks back once I saw they were coming to town. I am very curious to see them live to see if they can bring it or if the album is a lot of fluff. The album is outstanding as jambase likes to remind everyone :)
these guys are awesome! thanks Jambase for turning me on to these guys! Great tunes..
saw them open for iron & wine in november and they are for sure worth going to see live.
Really GOOD band. Go see them before they start bigger venues.
seen them...if you don't go your not missing out, but if you really have nothing to do, go see them
i saw these guys open for iron and wine in november. outstanding performance. i noticed several dylan influences in their music and demeanor. i got to meet them after the show and they're all real friendly guys. do yourself a favor and catch one of their shows before iron and wine is opening for them.
I can't believe that greensky bluegrass is playing with them, wish I lived closer to Oregon for sure, cus that night would be magical~
now that i looked them up and listened to quite a few of their songs, i can firmly say that this is bad
Wow, WidespreadMule that must have been an amazingly killer show. Wish I could see those two together. I really dig Blitzen Trapper and wish them all the best on their road to stardom.
claystribe, pretty quick to judge. Opinions ALWAYS vary. Apparently, you JUST introduced yourself to this band. Now you tell everyone that you think that is band is "bad", "firmly" after listening to "quite a few songs". I am not sure if people would WANT to take your word. Music is better with an open mind.
Won't miss their Denver show this time around!
this music is incredible!
I've been excited to get a chance to see these guys live, now i'm ecstatic to see they're playin the first unitarian church, shit is gonna to be sick
Just curious...do these guys rock out...jam band...or are they a pop/harmony-type band? I def. like their sound...and the single they have out, but just wondering. Gonna try an see 'em in Denver or SLC.
raise your hand if you're just making erroneous comments to see how many thumbs up or down we can get... i keep hoping these comment boards will start being more intelligent, but it's simply not happening. that's a shame, especially when we're talking about a talented up and coming band like blitzen trapper. you really can't just listen to a few songs and jump to a conclusion with these guys, their albums are a work of art as a whole, and you must listen to the entire thing from start to finish to fully grasp the finely crafted moodiness.
this is jambase, where unfortunately people (like claytribe) get their own opinion, even if no one cares and it doesnt even make sense.

Brandon Saling faces hearing over hate tattoos and criminal record

Having a Tattoo saying white pride - Should be OK, but it isn't. It is considered OK to have "brown pride" tattooed on you, and thus the same standard should apply. Unfortunatly, 99% of people who have a white pride tattoo have it for its racist implications. Hopefully in the future this will no longer be the case, but as it stands, white pride tattoos are a terrible idea.
Having tattoos with Nazi meanings - Having tattoos supporting the greatest war crime in history and the perpetrator of said crimes is just silly. Is he really in favor of the gassing of 6 million jews? I doubt it. It is just a stupid idea of an angry and confused young man. I think a lot of the people with Nazi related tattoos probably don't have that much of an idea of what the Nazi's actually stood for, and instead is just an expression of their hatred for other races. All that being said, Nazi related tattoos are completely unnacceptable and no pro sports league should permit an athlete with these tats.
Kidnapping and raping underage girls - Are you ******* kidding me? This guy shouldn't be allowed to work anywhere but Mcdonalds, whilst wearing a T-Shirt saying "Pedophile. Beware." Strikeforce seriosly ****ed up here. It doesn't matter how good a fighter this guy is, boot him out of the organisation quickly.

your comments review this restaurant and win a bottle of champagne
We had breakfast at this restaurant on Sat 16th march. A full english with a cup of tea or coffee was £ 4.95. The price wasn't bad, the portions not bad but unfortunately,the food was luke warm. The restaurant staff were friendly and my two children, who aren't that fussed about hot food, liked it.

This is really a complaint in regards this restaurant in the Old Compton street. I am not sure are they a part of your chain but they are an utter disgrace to your chain and definitely very disrespectful to the customer . I've been here so many times and every time I experienced the same treatment!! I felt humiliated and definitely felt like my money was stolen out of me as I can never enjoy my meal in piece and as long as I want. Today again my hard earn money was taken out of my pocket and again as every single other time I was asked to leave the table even I haven't even finished with my drink which I was enjoying after a big meal. Such a disrespect for the customer is not to be imagined and even more to be experienced!! Spoke to the manager and he told me you didn't want any dessert so we needed the table as we are busy!!! I could not believe that I was told that and can't honestly believe that I've been treated like this and its not the first time!!!!
Absolutely disgraceful and run by an ignoramus!!!

Never miss another 'Palma Violets' show
Palma Violets
For a long time if you wanted to hear the most exciting new band in Britain, you knocked on a tall black door off the Lambeth Road. An aging British Rail building - part art studio happening, part squat – Studio 180 was where south London's Palma Violets were gestating, away from sunlight and the world at large. A thrilling rock'n'roll four piece, from September 2011 they were holed-up here writing songs "their friends could dance to" and occasionally putting on celebratory, ecstatic parties about which word quickly spread. Palma Violets are Sam Fryer (vocals/guitar), Chilli Jesson (vocals/bass), Pete Mayhew (keyboard) and Will Doyle (drums), playing energetic, crooning garage rock with a dreamy, psychedelic edge.
Palma Violets tour dates
Broken Hands
There's a ragged glory to Broken Hands' music - a rumbling growl and cathartic howl suggesting decades on the road, if not the wagon; half a lifetime of hard days, wild nights and regretful dawns.
The fact that the impossibly youthful band are actually only just embarking on their own rock odyssey is hard to fathom, and will probably prove deeply upsetting for the many addled bluesmen forced to symbolically sell their souls to achieve something like it.
The roots of R&B run strong in such young blood, but dare to call what they do 'classic' rock and they'll scoff politely: these are contemporary songs, culled from countless sessions down in their borrowed basement rehearsal space. They've just done it in a quiet bit of Kent.

Understanding Assessment
The Learning Journey
CTB supports educators and students throughout the learning process.
Psychometrics is the field of study concerned with the theory and methodology of educational and psychological measurement.
Psychometrics is the field of study concerned with the theory and methodology of educational and psychological measurement. At CTB, we focus mainly on measurement of the knowledge, skills, and abilities that comprise educational curricula. CTB's Research Department conducts psychometric research to support improved measurement. This work addresses a wide range of topics, including cheating detection, scaling and equating, computer-adaptive testing, validity studies, and other relevant issues.
The goal of this research is to develop a procedure to autonomously determine if cheating has occurred during testing by detecting the presence of aberrant responses in scanned Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) test books.
This proposal is for a study to investigate ability estimation and item selection methods in multidimensional adaptive testing.
This study proposes a new modeling approach for implementing cognitive diagnosis in large scale testing, namely, the IRT-based continuous conjunctive latent trait diagnostic model, which combines the features of a multidimensional IRT (MIRT) model and a diagnostic classification model (DCM) into a single model.
Available in test levels 13 through 18 in Reading, Language Arts, and Mathematics, theTerraNova® Common Core tests are a set of TerraNova Multiple Assessments that measure the Common Core State Standards. These test forms share the same selective-response items with the TerraNova, Third Edition (TerraNova 3) Survey tests of the same test level and content area.
The additional items, including constructed-response items and various innovative item types such as performance tasks, were specifically developed to measure the Common Core State Standards. Items in these tests are aligned to both the TerraNova test content standards as well as the Common Core State Standards. Such dual alignment allows the objective (standard) level scores to be reported under both standard frameworks. The TerraNova Common Core Assessments, nationally normed in 2011, provide teachers, schools, and districts with useful diagnostic information to support a smooth transition to the Common Core State Standards.
This paper describes different Item Response Theory (IRT) models for both multiple- choice items and constructed-response items.

(Dec 09, 2009) On December 2, 2008, the Malawi National Assembly passed a police bill that empowers the police to conduct searches without warrants, as long as they make a "recording of the exercise." (MISA, Malawi Communiqué: Parliament Passes Police Bill Amid Protests from Opposition MPs, and Civil Society, THE ZIMBABWEAN, Dec. 7, 2009, available at http://www.thezimbabwean.co.uk/2009120727292/africa/malawi-communique-pa
The Constitution of Malawi guarantees the right to privacy. According to the Constitution:
Every person shall have the right to personal privacy, which shall include the right not to be subject to –
a. searches of his or her person, home or property;
b. the seizure of private possessions; or
c. interference with private communications, including mail and all forms of telecommunications. (Constitution of the Republic of Malawi, § 21, Malawi SDNP [Sustainable Development Networking Programme] website, http://www.sdnp.org.mw/constitut/dtlindx.html (last visited Dec. 8, 2009.)
The Constitution, however, appears to allow limitations to be placed on this right in circumstances other than national emergencies. It provides that limitations on the right to privacy may be imposed as long as they are "prescribed by law … [and] are reasonable, recognized by international human rights standards and necessary in an open and democratic society," and as long as the laws prescribing them do not "negate the essential content of the right or freedom in question [and are] of general application." (Id. § 44, items 2 & 3.) It is not yet clear whether the new law passes this Constitutional test.
According to Malawi law, the President has 21 days to give his assent to the law before it can enter into force. If the President decides to withhold his assent, he will return the bill to the Speaker of the National Assembly with the reasons for that withholding.

Tema Youth edge Hearts of Oak in pre-season friendly

Ghana Premier League giants Hearts of Oak continued their pre-season campaign with a narrow 2-1 defeat against Tema Youth at the Tema Park on Wednesday afternoon.
Youth under the tutelage of owner-turned head coach Winfried Osei Kwaku took a 2-0 first-half lead with Ekow Benson scoring from a free kick before Bright Adjei added the second 7 minutes before the break.
Youngster Kenneth Okoro climbed off the bench to register the face-saving goal in the 82nd minute.
Herbert Addo paraded a strong side featuring Ivorian Robin Gnagne who partnered 'captain' Philip Boampong in central defence while Sumaila Atia was assigned the holding role.
Winful Cobbinah, Selasi Adjei and Emmanuel Hayford were the other known names in the squad for the game while Kofi Abanga started the game from the bench.
Youth, who were relegated from the Ghanaian top-flight two seasons ago, had influential midfielder Ekow Benson in their line-up.
Hearts started the game off with brilliant stringing passes and dominant display but it was the host who drew first blood. However before Youth got their opener, it was Emmanuel Hayford who showed enough venom and intent after flashing two drives at goal.
The goal arrived in the 18th minute. Hearts new-boy Isaac Oduro felled a Youth defender just outside of the box and the center referee marched him off for the foul.
Ekow Benson stepped up and bent a magnificent ball into the net of Kingsley Kissi. A goal that proved a measure of the class that won him a Ghana debut almost six seasons ago against Brazil.
Hearts tried to reply immediately with Selasi Adjei and Cobbinah both missing narrowly. In the 31st minute, Cobbinah came ever close to pecking the scoring. Adjei performed an artistic pirouette just outside of the box and released the ball to Cobbinah but his effort was tucked off the line for a corner.
Bright Adjei ghosted into the box, beating the offside trap to slot beyond Kissi for the doubler in the 38th minute.
With Herbert Addo's bubble almost burst by the second-tier side, he made a double change just before the break with triallist Chibsah and Baadu changing Maxwell Boakye and Philip Boampong.
The game changed into a ding-dong battle and Hearts were unable to make any real impact until the arrival of Kenneth Okoro, the youngster blasting a dynamite of a shot into the top root corner in the 82nd minute to halve the scoring.

Create hanging loving mothers is a safe outlet for jewelry, as well as partnerships, since they are used for jewelry tradition.

The creative variations of these "'little children'" in hanging version, can give you a very nice profit if your version is successful.

- Bases for metal cameos
- Crimp metal pans
- Portraits hand painted children
- Portraits of children hand-drawn
- Varnish
- Photographs of children
The proposal is very interesting: to achieve style pendants antique cameos to portraits of small, handmade with the technique that best mastered or strung on a small photo or casserole base and protected with varnish or acrylic.
Such ideas can be achieved re designing a piece of traditional jewelry, updating or imposing a more carefree or, as in this case, more personal and artistic.
If you want to increase your sales and you are a photographer, illustrator, portrait or jewelers, try cameos for mothers, loving style of winning with creativity…

South West trusts set up regional 'pay cartel'
Sixteen trusts in the south west are seeking to move away from Agenda for Change and have formed a consortium to lead regional negotiation on pay, terms and conditions.
Nursing Times understands only South Devon Healthcare Trust, Somerset Community Health and Torbay and Southern Devon Health and Care Trust have decided not to join the group, described by unions as a "cartel", while the region's mental health trusts are keeping their position under review.
Taunton and Somerset Foundation Trust, Royal United Hospital Bath Trust and Gloucestershire Hospitals Foundation Trust have already approached staff.
Unison regional head of health Simon Newell told Nursing Times the unions had told management they were not prepared to discuss terms and conditions. He said issues on the table included unsocial hours payments, elements of sick pay and holiday pay, all of which come under the national pay agreement Agenda for Change.
More than 40 staff side representatives from the region's NHS trusts, foundation trusts and seven social enterprises met in Bristol today to discuss their approach to the plans. In a press release following the meeting they described the consortium as a "pay cartel".
Chair of the joint unions health officers forum for the south west Dorothy Fogg said: "This group of employers are planning to abandon nationally agreed pay and conditions in the South West region.
"This is not an issue about public sector pay; the knock on effects will have a devastating impact of the regional economy, especially the private sector, at a time when the economy needs strengthening not weakening."
In his budget speech chancellor George Osborne announced plans to introduce local pay in the public sector to make salaries more reflective of cost of living.
The Department of Health has proposed retaining national pay agreement but expanding the areas that receive recieving a weighting to take account of more expensive living costs. This would be done by holding down pay in areas with a lower cost of living.
Foundation trusts have been able to opt out of Agenda for Change since their creation but only Southend Univeristy Hospital Foundation Trust has ever done so.
The initiative has been led by the trusts not the strategic health authority. A spokeswoman for NHS South of England said the authority was aware of the plans.
She said: "We are aware that some employers are considering working more collaboratively in order to ensure that their pay frameworks represent best value for money… the Strategic Health Authority continues to work with employers and trades unions in applying national terms and conditions where employers do not have the freedom to develop their own."
Readers' comments (20)
Horrendous! We simply cannot allow it to happen. I am employed by one of the Trusts mentioned and nothing would delight our Chief Exec more than to pay Nurses even less, he has scant regard for us as it is.
There is quite an insidious problem here. Bristol for instance has a fairly high cost of living with accomodation of all sorts being rather expensive and ditto public transport. Drive down renumeration by using a local pay deal and what happens? Hopefully common sense will predicate that this slippery path is one that few Southwest Trusts (if any) will want to use as a blunt instrument to (to put it bluntly) 'shaft' their workers.
and so it will continue ad infinitum, until nurses decide to stand up for themselves.
This disgusts me: I've been a nurse for over 20 years and have seen management mushroom out of control. They care about shaving costs and I'm sorry to say that nurses are easy targets because we moan about everything but do nothing about anything. If every nurse in the south west handed in their notice on the same day we would be shafting the managers instead of them ploughing headlong through our needs without a care. Would we ever do this? Unlikely because whenever trust managers want to knock us down we not only let them: we hand them the stick todo it! I've had enough, and I'm leaving nursing altogether!
singularly we are dispensible, united we are indespensible.
I too am disgusted by this move. The mere words 'value for money' equals reducing pay and conditions and getting the cheapest salaries for nursing care. Does no-one feel that nurses are value for money already? The majority of the nursing workforce are not on huge salaries and work many, many hours unpaid. I would say that this is VERY good value for money. It is so demoralising for nursing. We have no respect, recognition or appreciation.
Well, we reap what we sow. Solidarity instead of individualism is what is needed, but when it comes to the crunch, all of those living in areas where the pay will not be restructured will be quietly hoping that the sword o'Damoclese will just sweep their country cousins off their perch whilst leaving them safely esconsed. In reality, give it 6 months and we'll all be screwed. STAND UP AND FIGHT, YOU COWARDS!

here, here. Just fiddling while Rome burns.
Fated with the gift of prophecy but doomed because no-one would believe her, daughter of noble Priam of Troy, time to tell these drongos to get off their arses and act! What next, come into work for free?!? Forgot, already do that, whilst some Baroness who gets a title for licking Dave's hoop steals from us all! Give her regional pay, preferably an hourly rate from Wormwood Scrubs sewing mailbags/ breaking rocks or whatever is construed as 'rehabilitation'. Remember, we are all in this together!

TINKERBELL why on earth have you changed your ID from Tinkerbell to THIS?
"…in those groups of real and on-line communities of people where all aspects of psychic (or psi) abilities— and particularly, precognitive foresight— are accepted as a commonplace fact and not conjecture, the term "Cassandra Syndrome" has been coined to be a reflection of those who deliberately ignore warnings and predictions of any kind of impending trouble or doom because of disbelief, ignorance, skepticism, or just plain stubbornness when it comes to psychic abilities. When everything is all over, it is said that this person was a victim of the Cassandra syndrome."
"In Greek mythology, Cassandra (Greek ?ass??d?a, also ?as??d?a,[1] also known as Alexandra[2]) was the daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba of Troy. Her beauty caused Apollo to grant her the gift of prophecy. In an alternative version, she spent a night at Apollo's temple, at which time the temple snakes licked her ears clean so that she was able to hear the future (this is a recurring theme in Greek mythology, though sometimes it brings an ability to understand the language of animals rather than an ability to know the future).[3] When she did not return his love, Apollo placed a curse on her so that no one would ever believe her predictions. She is a figure both of the epic tradition and of tragedy, where her combination of deep understanding and powerlessness exemplify the ironic condition of humankind."

alright i've had me ears licked out. I hear you.
Hey wake up --------------this is easy !
Form a nursing co-operative with hundreds of members,
Then collect resignation letters ( hundreds ) all with the same effective date of resignation.
Then offer the Trusts a deal which includes
enhanced salaries guaranteed bonuses and minimal staffing levels.
Fight fire with fire
Sadly it wont happen and you will all cave in whilst moaning about the "management"
Anon 8.40am
Try reading the Illiad, instead of Wikipedia, broaden your mind a lot more. It's free on Kindle store, and is beautiful.
Oh for the days of the Whitley Council. It was often mocked back in the day but it seems like a distant oasis of admirable sensibility in these days of fiscal lunacy.
If it gets much crazier UK nurses might as well forget about any thought of any form of protest and start thinking about emigrating to Canada, Australia, America... or just about any other country that still values nurses (both morally and fiscally!)
Alas I prophesy that this situation is going to get a lot worse before it gets even worse!
redpaddys12 | 30-May-2012 1:49 am
thanks for the tip but Wikipedia, for what it is, was quicker to find the information to respond to the post than ploughing through the Iliad on this occasion, but I agree with you.
Anon 2.04am
It is a bit hard going, but once you start, read it as you would music lyrics (with a little tune in the noggin) and it positively flies past!
If this happens I can't afford to nurse even if they just bring in regional pay I will be forced to leave a Job I love. These are really worrying times; they seem to be treating nurses and the profession with very little respect:
1) Our pensions are under attack
2) Potential of regional pay.
3) The SW trusts looking at lower pay and terms and conditions of employment under attack.
4) Potential hike in professional fees.
5) Pay freeze for the past two years (a pay cut in its self).
All this at a time when the NHS is having to save £20bn; in addition to the major changes in the Health and Social Care Bill that will be implemented.
This is all very worrying when taking into account the Daily Mail reported (In March 2012) results from a £2.8 million study that found 42% of Nurse in England were assessed as being burned out (second only to Greece) and 44% intended to leave their job in the next year due to dissatisfaction. The RN4CAST study looked at more than 2,900 nurses based at more than 40 hospitals in England. It found (according to the Daily Mail) England's nurses feel worse about their jobs than 11 other EU countries and the US.
The current situation is very serious indeed. NHS Staff deserve to be treated with respect. Nurses should not be made to feel bad about their jobs and forced into hardship with more pay cuts and diminished
terms and conditions of employment: This is a total lack of respect for the jobs we all do in the NHS. WE CAN'T let this happen.
Lansley would be proud of this discussion as his slow destruction of the NHS gathers pace. I would like to say it won't get worse but this is only the beginning there is much worse to come.
Reported in the Daily Telegraph 16/07/2012
"The 19 chief executives believe that by acting together they can counter the 'extremely hostile' reaction expected by staff, it has been reported.
The document leaked to the Sunday Times said: "Acting in unison... in a way which has not been undertaken previously demonstrates both the seriousness of the situation and the collective resolve to achieve long-term change."
Hospital staff in Poole, Exeter, Plymouth and Turo are thought to be among the 1.5m who could be affected.
Demonstrations have already been held and it is expected that the unions would put up a strong fight to protect national pay.
Unison has said the plans will "damage patient care and drive down pay'.
The document outlines measures such as a sliding scale pay cut with those on more than £21,000 a year set to lose around 5 per cent, reducing sick and stopping unsocial hours payments.
Performance related awards could soften the blow for staff in what the document calls a 'sweet and sour' approach.
The 'final option' could be to terminate all contracts and reemploy staff on the new terms."
It would seem that the consortium is firming up its options prior to launching a ferocious attack on staff.
This would seem to indicate that staff and their professional/trade unions need to plan an extremely robust plan of rebuttal.

Six Reasons The Patriot Defense Is Headed The Right Direction
In what has to be a disappointing show for the second straight year, the New England Patriot defense appears to be in the same league as their counterparts just a season ago. If 2011 looked to finish with a ray of hope for this unit, 2012 has not continued the upward trend. The Patriots are sliding downward, especially in their pass defense, as the year wears on. Without a few big plays in key situations from week to week, the Patriots could easily find themselves in the basement right now.
At least in 2011, the defensive squad found their footing well enough to boost the team through the playoffs and into the Super Bowl (I am sure we have not all forgotten the deft pass break up in the end zone by Sterling Moore during the AFC Championship Game). But despite a decent pass rush, New England was pretty average in the sack department.
The biggest culprit this year is the secondary, which is leading the league in all the wrong stats. And with injuries added to the sub-par play of several players, things aren't looking too promising.
But unlike the majority of the pundits, I actually see a ray of hope for this young bunch, and for the team as a whole. Well, I see 6 rays of hope; and judging from the near successful Super Bowl appearance for the Brady-led Patriots after last season's so so defensive performance, there have been enough signs of improvement to keep Patriot nation from throwing in the towel.
Here is my list, in no particular order.

The crash happened at about 3:30 p.m. near the Stony Lake Road overpass in Grant Township.
The Oceana County Sheriff's Department said Ronald William Witt, 63, was driving a 2005 Chevy Monte Carlo north on U.S. 31 when he drove off the road and hit a concrete bridge pier in the highway's median. What caused the crash is still unknown.
Witt was taken to Hackley Hospital's Lakeshore Campus, where he died.
Investigators said alcohol was not a factor and Witt was not wearing a seat belt.
