FC Dallas suffered their first home loss of the season against league leading Real Salt Lake on Saturday, unfortunately dropping them even further in this week's power rankings. On the brightside, the team didn't fall entirely out of the top 10.
Avi Creditor of SportsIllustrated.com dropped FC Dallas six spots to number 10:
The slide goes on for FC Dallas, which has not scored in three straight games, has not won in seven straight games and is falling back to the middle of the pack after setting a torrid pace out of the gate. Getting George John back to 100 percent would go a long way in FCD tightening things up in the back, as the center back has missed the last four matches and seen his team concede seven goals in that time.
FCD fell to number nine in Yahoo Sports' rankings:
It seems like just yesterday that Dallas were atop MLS power rankings and true Supporters' Shield contenders. Now they're just four points off of sixth place. Yikes.
MLSsoccer.com moved the Hoops down four spots to #11:
No wins since May 25. No real answers anywhere on the pitch. Bad times in Frisco.
ESPN FC continued to drop FC Dallas, bumping them all the way to number 12:
FCD is in freefall after losing at home to RSL, extending its winless streak to seven matches. And after getting shut out for the third consecutive game, the onus is on the attack to begin finishing off some of the team's neat approach work.
July didn't really start with a bang for FC Dallas. Schellas Hyndman's men started the month with a draw against Chivas USA on the Fourth of July then lost on the road to LA. The disappointing start was reflected in this week's power rankings, as FCD fell almost entirely out of the top five they had become so used to.
FC Dallas dropped two spots in Yahoo Sports' rankings, but stayed in the top five:
Unable to defeat Chivas at home. Thoroughly beaten by LA. Dallas have had better weeks this season.
ESPN FC dropped FC Dallas all the way to number 8:
All of a sudden, FCD finds itself with a six-game winless streak after a disappointing home draw with Chivas USA and a road defeat to the Galaxy. The panic button isn't being pressed, but the defense has looked a bit fragile of late.
MLSsoccer.com bumped FCD three spot to seventh:
Since mid-April, the only teams they've beaten are D.C. and San Jose. They're lucky they're not lower.
Goal.com moved FC Dallas down to number eight:
Recent results suggest that FCD may need further reinforcements during the summer window.
FC Dallas players and coaches may be busy with a league game against Chivas USA this Fourth of July, but that doesn't keep them from reminiscing their favorite Independence Day traditions. Some of the players and head coach Schellas Hyndman shared their favorite holiday traditions and memories.
Kenny Cooper: "For me the Fourth of July game is one of my favorite memories of the day. It's always a special game here and there's always a great turnout and it's always a fun, festive night."
Zach Loyd: "I lived by the Verdigris River and we used to go there. They have a little carnival and rodeo and at the end of the night they have a firework show, so that's been my family's tradition since I was a little kid."
"Now the tradition's that my family comes here. Since I've been here we've gotten the Fourth of July game every year, so this has turned into the tradition. It's always awesome to play here on the Fourth."
London Woodberry: "I like to wear the most American outfit I can find. I've got some pants already planned out."
Kellyn Acosta: "I come out here to FC Dallas games and watch the fireworks afterwards."
Schellas Hyndman: "I think it's fantastic to have a home game on such an important date in our country. It's also a great opportunity to get a sellout crowd and to make it more of an event than a soccer game, whether it's the atmoshpere, whether it's the competition or the fireworks afterwards. We know we'll have fireworks after the game. We just hope those are celebrating a successful game."
"[Prior to joining FCD] We always enjoyed going to the mountains in Colorado and watching the Fireworks in Vale or Aspen when we could get away...Putting it all together, I'm glad to be here and playing in a soccer game."
FC Dallas will take on Chivas USA at 8 pm. A fireworks show will follow the game(MORE INFO).
FC Dallas recorded a thrilling 2-2 draw on the road against the Philadelphia Union on Saturday to close out a grueling month in which the team played only one MLS game at home. The team enters a much friendlier July in the top five of everyone's power rankings.
Yahoo Sports moved FCD up one spot to put them back in the top three:
Dallas sharing the point with Philly was justice considering all that occurred in the closing stages of that game. The visitors did well to fight up until the final whistle.
FC Dallas remained at number five in ESPN FC's rankings:
FCD was on the receiving end of a month's worth of dubious calls, including what looked to be a goal by Blas Perez that was judged to have not crossed. Yet Dallas still found a way to escape Philly with a 2-2 draw thanks to Perez's equalizer.
Avi Creditor of SI.com kept Dallas in the fourth spot:
Dallas was moments away from being robbed of a deserved draw before David Ferreira's blind flick found Blas Perez by the goalpost for the game-tying header in the club's 2-2 result with the Philadelphia Union. Dallas did not win in June, going 0-1-3, with late heroics providing single points in each of the last two matches. Rookie Walker Zimmerman did the honors against Sporting KC in the previous week and added his second career goal against the Union.
Soccer America bumped FC Dallas back to number three:
Blas Perez's goal in stoppage time deprived the Union of a franchise-record third straight victory and gave FC Dallas its second straight tie. FCD came back twice to get the point; Walker Zimmerman's second goal of the year matched an opening goal by Amobi Okugo, and Perez scored after Aaron Wheeler had restored the Union's lead in the 87th minute.
MLSsoccer.com also left FC Dallas in number four slot:
So do we praise them for going on the road and gutting out a draw, or do we crush them for needing an insane amount of stoppage to do so despite a favorable matchup? Pretty sure we praise them – they were missing some big pieces, after all.
Soccer By Ives moved the team up to number three:
Collapsed in the second half in their U.S. Open Cup loss to Portland, but showed great heart to overcome a red card and questionable no-goal ruling to earn a late draw vs. the Philadelphia Union. Walker Zimmerman is looking good as a rookie centerback, while Raul Fernandez continues to state his case for a place on the MLS All-Star Team.
Goal.com didn't move the Hoops out of the fourth spot:
How will the impending absence of Blas Perez influence FCD over the next month or so?
Finally, NBC's ProSoccerTalk has FC Dallas in third place in their Power Rankings
Another week, another white knuckle comeback. Blas Perez scored one in stoppage time that didn't count. No matter … he scored another one, this one even deeper into injury time, and it counted as the equalizer in a 2-2 draw in Philadelphia.
By Beth Anne Carroll & Daniel Robertson
Under-18s fall just short in comeback attempt, finish USSDA Playoffs 1-1-1
FRISCO, Texas - The FC Dallas under-18s needed to win by two goals to advance to finals week, but the home team only managed a 1-1 draw against Albertson SC.
The game was mainly a defensive battle, with both teams struggling to score for most of the match. Both teams had plenty of opportunities, but a combination of defense in front of the goal and strong performances from both goalkeepers made it a low-scoring affair.
Albertson had a couple of opportunities in the first, but two went wide and Dallas keeper Caleb Underwood saved another two. FCD also missed a chance in the closing minutes of the half when a shot hit the post, sending the game into halftime scoreless.
READ: Marco Carrizales' USSDA Playoffs Week blog
Needing to win by two goals to advance, FCD was forced to push forward leaving them exposed at the back. Albertson finally opened the scoring on a counterattack, giving them a 1-0 advantage with 30 minutes left in the game.
FC Dallas never quit and finally got a goal of their own, but with just seconds left in the match it wasn't enough and the 1-1 draw means the under-18s won't be advancing to Finals Week for a fourth straight year as they finished 1-1-1 in the group.
Under-16's lead group with one game remaining
As FC Dallas battled the Portland Timbers inside the stadium last night, the under-16s continued their solid playoffs run beating FC Delco 4-0 in their second USSDA playoff game.
FC Dallas 2013 USSDA Playoffs HQ
Santiago Agudelo was the star again for FC Dallas scoring goals in the 15th and 28th minute to put FCD out to a quick 2-0 lead.
Coy Craft and Christian Ramirez added goals in the second half to give FCD the emphatic 4-0 win.
That win, coupled with RSL-AZ's 0-0 draw with Sockers FC, means that FC Dallas under-16s can advance to Finals Week for the first time since 2009 with a win or a draw against RSL-AZ on Friday. That game will be played at 11:00AM on field 7.
This week's power rankings results come with good news and bad news. The good news: After a thrilling 2-2 draw against Sporting KC on Saturday, FC Dallas is a unanimous top five team according to power rankers. The bad news: FC Dallas is no longer at the top of the league or or their division, which was enough for them to drop at least one spot in the rankings. However, FCD is still in great a great position heading into their final game of June, a month with only one MLS home game, sitting just one point behind Portland and Real Salt Lake.
ESPN FC kept FC Dallas in the number five spot:
Two goals in the final two minutes of regulation allowed FCD to salvage a 2-2 draw with Sporting Kansas City. The second came from defender Walker Zimmerman. Uh, shouldn't he be in Turkey with the U-20s?
Yahoo Sports bumped FC Dallas down a spot from their mid-week rankings to #4, but has real faith in the team:
Fighting back to score twice at the death in order to earn a result is what champions do. Dallas are still flying under the radar, but they are also the real deal.
Soccer America moved FC Dallas down to number 4:
FC Dallas rallied from a 2-0 deficit with two goals in the final few minutes to salvage a 2-2 tie with Sporting Kansas City. Andrew Jacobson headed home a Michel serve in the 88th minute, and Walker Zimmerman got his head to a corner kick in stoppage time.
Avi Creditor of Sports Illustrated dropped FC Dallas all the way to number four from his last rankings two weeks ago:
Dallas looked left for dead trailing Sporting Kansas City 2-0 in the final minutes Saturday night, but two late goals, including an equalizer from rookie and U.S. U-20 snub Walker Zimmerman, salvaged a point. Dallas is still winless in three matches and has only beaten struggling D.C. and San Jose in its last eight games, but that is a point that can go a long way in changing the club's mentality, as opposed to dropping a home game to a 10-man opponent.
MLSsoccer.com also dropped FC Dallas one spot to number four.
We're not going to say that the bottom has dropped out, but FCD have won just once in their last five and looked good to take another "L" before some late set-piece heroics.
Finally, Soccer by Ives dropped FCD from third to fourth after Saturday's draw.
One win in five qualifies as a slump, but FCD has to feel good about rallying back to salvage a point against a tough Sporting KC side. Things don't get much easier though, not with another meeting with red-hot Portland, and a road trip to take on a surging Philadelphia side. Having Walker Zimmerman score a big goal is good news though, as he looks more and more like a viable option in the team's centerback rotation, which is needed given how often George John and Matt Hedges take knocks.
After a brilliant game against Portland which saw him record seven saves, it's no surprise that Raul Fernandez is nominated for Mlssoccer.com's Save of the Week. Fernandez's save in the 39th minute earned the nod. Voting is open until Thursday at 11:59 pm pacific time. Fernandez was also named the #1 performer of the week in the Top 3 Performers for week 16.
Further recognition rolled in for Raul who was also named to MLS' Team of the Week, alongside Zach Loyd, who had a solid defensive effort against Portland in addition to a goal against Houston in Open Cup action. Here's what Nicholas Rosano had to say about the duo:
GK: Raúl Fernández (FC Dallas) –Dallas may have lost in Portland,dropping a 1-0 result, but it would have been much worse had the Peruvian 'keeper not made a string of ridiculous saves worthy of any highlight reel.
DF: Zach Loyd (FC Dallas) – Just ahead of Fernández, the right back did the best out of any of Dallas' defenders on the night on both sides of the ball, frustrating Portland out wide for long stretches of the game and getting forward to good effect.
David Ferreira got some attention for his performance on Saturday, as well. The midfielder came in at number 16 on the weekly Castrol Index Top 20, his second time making the list this season.

This week's power rankings results were not too positive for FC Dallas following a loss to Portland on the road. All but one of the weekly rankings moved the team down at least one spot, but the team stil remains in everyone's top five. FC Dallas has a chance to bounce back with a home match Saturday against Sporting KC.
Soccer America moved Portland to the top, dropping FC Dallas one spot to number three.
Even by the stratospheric standards of Jeld-Wen Field, the roars and celebrations that saluted Nagbe's strike in the 53rd minute skewed off the scale. Rival keepers Donovan Ricketts and Raul Fernandez each had seven saves and FCD, even without Panama striker Blas Perez, could well have departed with a tie. This game showcased the league nicely to an ESPN audience that had just seen Brazil thump Japan in the Confederations Cup.
Yahoo Sports left FC Dallas at number two and had some encouraging words:
They're atop the overall league standings and they won't always be without their key front man. Dallas are going to be just fine.
FC Dallas dropped just one spot to #3 according to mlssoccer.com:
Lost, and were outclassed. But thanks to another spectacular performance from Raúl Fernández, they had a legit chance at a point up until the final whistle. Very impressive, especially considering they were without all three of their target forwards.
ESPN FC dropped FCD two spots to number five after the loss:
Injury, international duty and a family emergency for Kenny Cooper all conspired to rob FC Dallas of any striking threat, yet Schellas Hyndman's side still made a game of it in Portland only to fall 1-0. Raul Fernandez put on a goalkeeping clinic.
ProSoccerTalk switched FC Dallas and Portland, moving FCD to number two:.
The team has three top-shelf strikers, but circumstance conspired to keep all three off the field for most of the 1-0 loss to Portland.
FC Dallas may have lost a heartbreaker in Portland on Saturday, but Raul Fernandez had another amazing game in the goal with seven saves. As a result, the nominations and honors are already pouring in for Fernandez who leads MLS goalkeepers in saves this season.
It's only Monday, but Fernandez has already been nominated for MLSsoccer.com's Top 3 Performers of the Week and El Latino de la Jornada for Week 16. Voting for Top 3 closes tonight at 7:00 and El Latino de la Jornada voting will remain open until the end of the day Thursday. Make sure to vote Raul!


text: Obesity epidemic costs UK £5bn a year Doctors in Britain have demanded for help to deal with the obesity crisis costing £5 billion a year. Loading ... The UK doctors have called for a team of specialists to help the country deal with the soaring obesity crisis costing the country£5 billion a year, an issue the government has failed to tackle. A report by the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) says not enough is being done to tackle the obesity epidemic in the UK, which is costing £5 billion each year. This figure is expected to rise alongside the number of obese Britons. Academic vice-president of the RCP Professor John Wass said, "Britain is getting bigger and whilst we try to prevent the increase in obesity, we must also prepare the NHS [National Health Service] for the influx of patients presenting with severe complex obesity." It is estimated that 700,000 current NHS employees are obese, but only 15 percent are seen or assessed. Professor Lindsey Davies, president of the UK's Faculty of Public Health, said "Obesity is not only caused by how much we each eat or drink: if tackling it were as simple as telling people to eat less and move more, we would have solved it by now." Meanwhile, the coalition government continues to ignore the obesity epidemic, which is heavily costing UK taxpayers. Instead, the Con-Dems' funding cuts caused a 60 percent decline in school sports across Britain, according to research compiled by Labour in July 2012. Moreover, about a quarter of UK adults are vastly overweight and it is estimated that the majority of Britain's population will be obese by 2050. BGH/MOL/HE

Lidded bowl
From Syria, late 15th century AD
A fusion of Venetian and Middle Eastern styles
This is one of a large group of fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century inlaid brass bowls and other vessels, many bearing European shields. Since the nineteenth century they have been known as 'Veneto-Saracenic' due to their fusion of Venetian and Middle Eastern styles. It used to be thought that they were made by Muslim craftsmen working in Venice, but they are now thought to have been made in Syria for export to Europe.
The tightly-fitting lid suggests that the contents were perishable. Bowls of this type may have been used to contain incense or spices, both of which were exported to Europe via the Mamluk Empire. The 'inscriptions' around the bowl and on the lid with their complicated knotted shafts are purely ornamental, but would have given an appropriately eastern appearance, much as contemporary tins of Chinese tea have chinoiserie decoration.

Quantitative easing (QE) is thought to work by reducing expected future short-term policy rates and the supply of long-term bonds. This column argues that a third channel may be at work, namely a reserve-induced portfolio balance channel. It operates through the increase in central bank reserves on commercial banks' balance sheets and is independent of which assets the central bank purchases. Central banks can implement QE programmes through purchases of other assets than long-term bonds and still reduce long-term yields.
Jens Christensen, Signe Krogstrup, Wednesday, June 10, 2015
Urszula Szczerbowicz, Natacha Valla, Thursday, April 9, 2015
Sovereign bonds are the latest and biggest quantitative easing (QE) policy conducted by the Eurozone. This column argues that instead of sovereign bonds, the Eurozone should focus on assets that are the closest to job-creating, growth-enhancing, and innovation-promoting activities. In particular, instruments issued by agencies and European institutions should be given a prominent role. But they should also be selected to promote the financing of long-term growth and jobs, not of unsustainable government expenditure.
Lars P Feld, Christoph M Schmidt, Isabel Schnabel, Benjamin Weigert, Volker Wieland, Friday, February 20, 2015
Claims that 'austerity has failed' are popular, especially in the Anglo-Saxon world. This column argues that this narrative is factually wrong and ignores the reasons underlying the Greek crisis. The worst move for Greece would be to return to its old ways. Greece needs to realise that things could actually become much worse than they are now, particularly if membership in the Eurozone cannot be assured. Instead of looking back, Greece needs to continue building a functioning state and a functioning market economy.
Francesco Giavazzi, Guido Tabellini, Saturday, January 17, 2015
The ECB may soon launch QE. Two of Europe's leading macroeconomists argue that QE is the ECB's last anti-deflation tool – it must not be sacrificed to political expediency. The risk-sharing debate is secondary to the programme's size and duration – one example would be €60 billion per month for one year, or until inflation expectations rose to near 2%. The ECB should also explain that no matter how well the monetary part of the programme is designed, an accompanying fiscal expansion is critical to QE's effectiveness.
Paul De Grauwe, Yuemei Ji, Thursday, January 15, 2015
The ECB has been struggling to implement a programme of quantitative easing (QE) that would successfully target deflation. The main difficulty is political, stemming from opposition from German institutions. Their argument against is that a government bond buying programme by the ECB would mix fiscal and monetary policy. This column argues the opposite – such a programme can be structured so that it does not mix fiscal and monetary policy. It, therefore, would not impose a risk on German taxpayers.
Michael A S Joyce, Zhuoshi Liu, Ian Tonks, Saturday, January 3, 2015
Central banks in advanced economies implemented quantitative easing (QE) as a response to the Global Crisis. A key transmission mechanism of QE, emphasised by policymakers, has been the 'portfolio balance' channel. This column describes behaviour of insurance companies and pension funds using sectoral and micro-level data from the UK. The results show that investors shifted their portfolios away from government bonds towards corporate bonds. But portfolio rebalancing has been limited to corporate bonds and did not extend to equities.
John Muellbauer, Tuesday, December 23, 2014
Eurozone deflation is likely to become reality when the annual inflation figure for 2014 is announced in January. This column argues that the ECB should develop a strategy that works in the Eurozone's unique financial setting, instead of following the Fed's lead. The author proposes that the ECB should pursue 'quantitative easing for the people', such as sending each adult citizen a €500 cheque.
Jean-Pierre Landau, Tuesday, December 2, 2014
Eurozone inflation has been persistently declining for almost a year, and constantly undershooting forecasts. Building on existing research, this column explores the conjecture that low inflation in the Eurozone results from an excess demand for safe assets. If true, this conjecture would have definite policy implications. Getting out of such a 'safety trap' would necessitate fiscal or non-conventional monetary policies tailored to temporarily take risk away from private balance sheets.
Luis Garicano, Lucrezia Reichlin, Friday, November 14, 2014
The ECB seems to be edging towards QE, but faces a quandary on what to buy. This proposal suggests that the ECB buy 'Safe Market Bonds'. These would be synthetic bonds formed by the senior tranches of EZ national bonds combined in GDP-weighted proportions. The ECB would merely announce the features of the synthetic bonds it will purchase. The market would create the bonds in response to this announcement, thus avoiding new EZ-level institutions or funds.
Jean Pisani-Ferry, Friday, November 7, 2014
A triple-dip recession in the Eurozone is now a distinct possibility. This column argues that additional monetary stimulus is unlikely to be effective, that the scope for further fiscal stimulus is limited, and that some structural reforms may actually hurt growth in the short run by adding to disinflationary pressures in a liquidity trap. The author advocates using tax incentives and tighter regulations to encourage firms to replace environmentally inefficient capital.
Biagio Bossone, Thomas Fazi, Richard Wood, Wednesday, October 1, 2014
High debt and deflation have afflicted Japan, the Eurozone, and the US. However, the monetary and fiscal policies implemented so far have been disappointing. This column discusses the importance of helicopter money in the form of overt monetary financing in addressing these problems. Overt money financing is the policy with the highest impact in raising demand and output without increasing public debt and interest rates.
Roberto Perotti, Saturday, September 13, 2014
There is a growing consensus that austerity is contributing to the Eurozone's macroeconomic malaise, but also that spending cuts are needed in the long run to achieve fiscal sustainability. Some commentators have advocated a temporary tax cut financed by unsterilised ECB purchases of long-term public debt, accompanied by a commitment to future spending cuts. This column argues that such commitments are simply not credible – especially given the moral hazard problem created by central bank monetisation of debts.
Charles Wyplosz, Friday, September 12, 2014
Last week, the ECB announced that it would begin purchasing securities backed by bank lending to households and firms. Whereas markets and the media have generally greeted this announcement with enthusiasm, this column identifies reasons for caution. Other central banks' quantitative easing programmes have involved purchasing fixed amounts of securities according to a published schedule. In contrast, the ECB's new policy is demand-driven, and will only be effective if it breaks the vicious circle of recession and negative credit growth.
Karl Walentin, Thursday, September 11, 2014
Central banks have resorted to various unconventional monetary policy tools since the onset of the Global Crisis. This column focuses on the macroeconomic effects of the Federal Reserve's large-scale purchases of mortgage-backed securities – in particular, through reducing the 'mortgage spread' between interest rates on mortgages and government bonds at a given maturity. Although large-scale asset purchases are found to have substantial macroeconomic effects, they may not necessarily be the best policy tool at the zero lower bound.
Marcus Miller, Lei Zhang, Wednesday, September 10, 2014
During the Great Moderation, inflation targeting with some form of Taylor rule became the norm at central banks. This column argues that the Global Crisis called for a new approach, and that the divergence in macroeconomic performance since then between the US and the UK on the one hand, and the Eurozone on the other, is partly attributable to monetary policy differences. The ECB's model of the economy worked well during the Great Moderation, but is ill suited to understanding the Great Recession.
Francesco Giavazzi, Guido Tabellini, Thursday, August 21, 2014
The stagnating Eurozone economy requires policy action. This column argues that EZ leaders should agree a coordinated 5% tax cut, extension of budget deficit targets by 3 or 4 years, and issuance of long-term public debt to be purchased by the ECB without sterilisation.
Kaoru Hosono, Daisuke Miyakawa, Saturday, August 9, 2014
In the wake of the Global Crisis, several central banks have adopted unconventional monetary policies. This column presents new evidence from Japan on the transmission of monetary policy through banks' balance sheets. Overall, the evidence suggests that bank net worth affects loan supply, that the effect depends on monetary policy and economic growth, and that this bank balance sheet channel has a significant impact on firms' financing and investment. Exiting from unconventional monetary policies when bank balance sheets are weak could thus have a severe adverse impact on investment.
Martin Weale, Tomasz Wieladek, Tuesday, June 10, 2014
After reducing their policy rates close to zero in response to the global financial crisis, the Bank of England and the Federal Reserve began purchasing assets. This column assesses the effect of these asset purchases on output and inflation. In line with previous studies, the authors find that asset purchase announcements are associated with increases in both output and inflation in both countries. They also find that quantitative easing had a larger impact on UK inflation, which suggests that the UK Phillips curve is steeper.
Mickey Levy, Friday, May 16, 2014
As banks repay their loans from the Long-Term Refinancing Operation, the ECB's balance sheet is shrinking. This column argues that, given the slow recovery and sustained low inflation, the ECB should replace its bank lending programme with quantitative easing. Buying short-term government debt would be consistent with the ECB's inflation target, would keep the ECB's monetary policy separate from its role in bank supervision, and would create a built-in exit strategy from unconventional policy.
Jeffrey Frankel, Monday, March 24, 2014
The Eurozone needs to further ease monetary policy because under the current low inflation and high unemployment periphery countries need to suffer painful deflation. However, the ECB faces challenges other central banks do not face. This column proposes a way to overcome some of these hurdles. It argues that the ECB should buy US treasury securities, lowering the foreign exchange value of the euro. That would be the best way to restore the export sector of the periphery countries.

As a thespian, one thing I especially appreciate about the film industry is its rating system. Movies rated R, NC-17, and of course X, are not available to the general public (or not supposed to be.) This is why the Toy Story trilogy is available to a different audience than the Girls Gone Wild saga. This isn't censorship; this is simply ensuring that the appropriate parties receive age-appropriate entertainment.
"In my study of the history of women, particularly Black American women... I've seen how they've been portrayed since slavery as promiscuous women of a lesser value... and I just don't understand how they... you... could be comfortable with Black women calling themselves "bitches" and "hoes." It seems like so many of you have worked so hard to be something better than that, and yes... men are misogynistic, but for women to say it about themselves? And be ok with it? Calling themselves the baddest bitch, talking about p***y on sideburns... it's baffling to me. Outside of reggaeton, the Latin community would never allow our music to get so virulently anti-women. The women, we would stop it. Why don't you say something? Are you ok with it?"
- artists often have little control over the content of their music
- Black women have continuously protests against misogynistic lyrics and made several strides (famous case in point: Spelman's Take Back the Music Campaign)
- lots of great men and women who portray us in a better light (Common, Will Smith, Janelle Monae, even Nicki has her moments)

Letter: Progress?
R. Michael Hoy, Naples
The traditional defined pension plan whereby the employer would pay for the retirement pension of individuals has long ago been replaced by the 401(k) and 403(b) retirement programs paid for by the individual.
Well, guess what? Get ready for phase two of the transfer of liability from employer to employee. The subject is medical insurance.
Medical insurance is one of the fastest growing responsibilities of corporations, and they are about to "dump" the responsibility on employees. The process has already begun with some "pioneer" companies experimenting with giving a cash allowance to employees who must in turn search for the best price they can afford with an independent insurance company.
The advantage for the corporation is obvious. First, they will no longer have to cope with rising health insurance costs and will be able to plug a controlled figure into their budget. Second, and equally important to the corporation, the cash figure allowed to employees will be "modest" and will require the employee to search around for a "good deal" commensurate with his personal budget and allow him to cope with rising medical insurance costs. This is part of a new corporate strategy to minimize and bring under control its "house" expenses.
In the larger picture, this appears to be a callous stratagem whereby corporations are continually minimizing company exposure and benefits for employees. It is now the employees who are put into a survival mode with most of the obligations on their backs.
Welcome to a "Brave New World"!

iA Mode Helps Prevent Shooting Mistakes in Any Situation
The AF Tracking function, the latest component to be added to Panasonics iA system, allows users to lock focus on a moving subject. The camera then automatically tracks the subject as it moves, keeping it in focus without the need to hold the shutter halfway down. AF Tracking makes it easier to capture moving subjects and spur-of-the-moment action shots. The AF Tracking technology also improves Face Detection (up to 15 faces), by providing continuous adjustment of the focus and exposure, even if the face is turned away from the camera.*
* Face must initially be facing forward to be detected.

Comments about Panasonic Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28K 10.1MP Digital Camera (Black):
I just received this camera ([...]) and immediatly charged the camera and started shooting. I'm replacing a Fuji S9000, a very good 9mp camera with 10x manual zoom. I must say that I like the FZ-28 much better. While the Fuji has TONS of features, figuring out how to use them all is a chore. The controls on the Panasonic are so intuitive that I feel like I've already learned how to access and utilize most of them. Picture quality is superb! I took pictures of objects placed approx one-half inch away from the lens, and the resulting photo was startling in detail, crispness, and clarity, superior to the Fuji. The intelligent aperture and intelligent shudder features make this a very forgiving camera; pictures came out beautiful. The 18X zoom is quite dramatic in terms of increasing one's ability to capture pictures that previously were impossible, and clarity with super zoom is maintained beautifully. Color reproduction is MUCH more accurate that with the Fuji...and this is apparent IN SPITE of the fact that I'm a casual amateur photographer.I haven't used it enough to comment on its shortcomes, but so far there are none.

hey guys what kind of performance can you expect from the rt188 with a 115 merc 4 stroke? how would it compare to a pro xs? deciding between the ranger and triton aluminums. thanks.
are they the same boat? they look exactly the same. Thanks.
hey guys what kind of performance can you expect from the rt188 with a 115 merc 4 stroke? how would it compare to a pro xs? deciding between the ranger and triton aluminums. thanks.
are they the same boat? they look exactly the same. Thanks.
I have not driven the boat with a 4 stroke 115, but I can tell you from my experience with other brands of boats the Pro-XS will more than likely have a little more top end speed between the two. But for a lot of guys speed isn't everything..........you will need to decide between the two motors based on your needs. For instance if you do a lot of trolling, idiling, like to talk to your buddy at mid-range speeds, and don't like to have to add 2 stroke oil then the 4 stroke may be the way to go. For guys that like to wring every mile per hour out of their rigs and need a slightly lighter weight motor, plus the "cool factor" of the Pro-XS graphics, they might consider that one.
I have seen first hand the two brands side by side in the factory a couple of different times. I made the following observations between the boats while I was there, and have pictures of both. Here are some things for you to consider:
- The Ranger has a Ranger Trail "C" channel trailer with Road Armor, a heavy duty swing away tongue, and integrated traction surfaces. Very similar to the way the glass boat trailers are built. Triton has an OUTSOURCED, painted tubular steel trailer.
- When you compare the seating between the two brands you will quickly see that Ranger surpasses them in quality of materials for more durable, comfortable seating that will stand the test of time.
- Ranger has custom mats on the bow and under the seats with the integrated Ranger logo. Triton has the cheaper traction mat on the bow with carpet under the seats.
- Ranger has a top of the line console with milled designs.........see pics below and judge for yourself.
- You can see the difference in quality in the steering wheels in the pictures as well.
- Ranger incorporates Pultrusion in their transoms, Triton does not.
- Ranger has the more expensive metalic paint for a more "custom" look, Triton does not.

thanks for the info pete, i appreciate it.

I too love the idea of the 4 stroke, for me I leaning towards the Yamaha 4 stroke. But after owning a 115 regular optimax on a Ranger 170vs glass boat, I gotta admit they are fuel efficient as any 4 stroke and not very loud either.
Last edited by spinningreel; 01-26-2013 at 08:10 AM.
Pete, what did you think of the white RT188 vs the other metallic colors? The white is not metallic, correct? Is there a difference in the quality? Thank you.
great question abking, i am looking at the white one if i do go this route, glad you thought of asking.
Can you buy one now? Is there any in stock to guy? I would want Yamaha 4 stroke 115.
White here too, probably leaning Yamaha 115 4 stroke. Sure wish the customer had option of having the entire hull bottom painted, I'd pay extra for that.
White for me too. I too wish they would do whole hull like xpress.
question for the yamaha guys...why do you prefer that over the merc? new to 4 strokes so any info is much appreciated.
I have had 2 115 Yamaha 4 strokes and the hole shot for 4 stroke is good for the 115. It also is smooth and had very few issues. Oil change is easy and fuel consumtion is good.
I'll make two comments here fwiw: the motor in the above picture looks tiny compared to the overall size of the boat, and guys jumping on the 4 stroke bandwagon should maybe pause and reconsider the awesome track record of the smaller E-Tecs. I wouldn't trade my 200 H.O. for another motor, and a vast number of pontoons and smaller fishing rigs are getting stellar performance from the mid-hp etecs. They are light, powerful, economical, quiet, and use so little oil that it's a negligible purchasing factor. I've been an outboard owner-operator for more than 50 years, and although I understand the temptation of "I add no oil!" in 4 stroke motors, it's my experience that an outboard owner who takes care of his equipment doesn't find running a 2 stroke troublesome, while someone who just puts a 4 stroke in the water and expects it to run with no effort or thought on his part will soon find that nothing runs with no maintenance.
Thanks! Pretty boat.
can you get this boat with the white evenrude in 115? just think it would look cool with the white motor.

Biological: ALT-836 in combination with gemcitabine
Tissue Factor (TF) is over-expressed in most cancer types. Results from many recent studies have suggested a key role for TF in the development of cancer-associated thrombosis, tumor growth, tumor angiogenesis, and tumor metastasis. ALT-836, a recombinant human-chimeric monoclonal antibody, is designed as a direct TF antagonist to block TF displayed by cancers and to inhibit cancer-associated venous thromboembolism, tumor growth, tumor angiogenesis and tumor metastasis. In numerous pre-clinical studies in laboratory animals, including non-human primates, ALT-836 exhibits potent anti-tumor, anti-thrombotic and anti-inflammatory activities with a remarkable safety profile. In humans, ALT-836, administered as a single bolus and monotherapy in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS), is safe and exhibits anti-coagulant and anti-inflammatory effects. A Phase II study using a multi-dose regimen of ALT-836 is being conducted in patients with ALI/ARDS. In the dose-escalation study described in this protocol, the investigators will assess the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ALT-836 in combination with gemcitabine in patients with advanced malignancies known to overexpress TF and in which venous thromboembolism is a major complication.

Painted military drum
Algonquian, AD
Probably from Manitoulin Island, Ontario, North America
Mide dream symbols
The Midewiwin, or 'Grand Medicine Society', was a shamanistic organization in which serious illnesses might be cured, success in life or afterlife sought, or the general health of the community ensured. Candidates for membership passed through four levels. The Midewiwin was significant over much of the Midwest and western Great Lakes, for instance among the Ojibwa and Miami, and may have arisen as a response to rapid cultural change in the eighteenth century.
In the nineteenth century the spiritual leaders of the Midewiwin were faced with the difficulties brought by disease and encroaching Europeans. As a result they incorporated aspects of Christian ideas, while fiercely defending their right to continue traditional religion. Black Duck, an Ojibwa in Manitoba in the 1850s asked of the Revd William Stagg of the Church Missionary Society: 'What would you do if the Metawin had been the religion of your country, and the Book the religion of mine, and I were to offer you my religion?'. Other religious readers promised that God would shower down from the clouds cloth, iron, lead and other trade goods, and also banish the whiteman.
This drum is painted with dream symbolism: the bottom half with horned cows, spiritually powerful creatures to be treated with respect.
The Canadian Paul Kane painted a nearly identical drum in the 1840s. This one was probably collected by Henry Christy, perhaps on Manitoulin Island, Ontario in the 1850s. During the 1840s and 1850s the Ojibwa would have become familiar with military drums at Fort Garry (Winnipeg) and Fort York (Toronto).

I clearly understand your convincing message but I am running out of time. I am loaded with literary material, not ideas but manuscripts including poetry and a whole book of humor. I have published a small book which never got exposure. I need someone to evaluate some of my work and tell me what to do. If you say you are ananimous at times,then where does leave someone like me?

Minister Carolyn Harshaw For the first time I listened to your hidden message video and you actually convey the very words that of the Holy Scriptures format for us all! Some are willing to staye the course and comply with the foremat presented by the one and only True God.. Jesus" oversees all. Remember when Nebucanezzer thought he made/created all that he had, untilThe Most High God delt with this heathen king in a awesome way. To prove who is really God and all the rest are simple minded idols and idolatry... It really is a great day here in Macomb County, Michigan /in the city of Roseville.Reply
Sonja Mpls, MN
Currently, I am in a NEW job where my manager is a believer, but has been quoted as saying, "I don't wear my religion on my sleeve." She is playing this political retoric that some believer feel they must play to get ahead and to be seen. However, the office is a hot mess but she is being given all the accolades. I am frustrated and feel like I have gone through too many work related trials and I would love to be in a leadership role creating a healthy and living environment, however; I'm never given the chance. It is discouraging. I feel like Joseph at times. Hated by people that you think should love you and cast aside and now I'm waiting as he did, for my breakthrough. The wait is tiring and fortunately I have a loving husband that reminds me of my purpose and Jesus that reminds me to not become weary in well doing and that in due season we shall reap. So I press on and wait for God to open the door. Thank you for the encouragement!Reply

Thanks so much for just being you and allowing God to use your life as a light that's shining all over the world you inspire me thanks be blessed .Reply
Lakisha P Detroit, Mi
I shed tears watching this video and felt as though you were speaking directly to me. I'm only 23 year old and I've always felt as I've been walking in the shadow of others. Waiting to be noticed, seen, and have my voice heard. I let lack of support and negativity stop me from believing in myself. So many situations in which I thought I was missing out when it was only God preserving me for something far better and I didn't even know it. I was being hidden on purpose all along. Thank you Mr. Perry, I admire you not only for your success but for being you and believing in yourself when no one else did. Shy and timid I will be no more. I'll walk this path proudly as I pursue a career in my passion for writing and storey telling. If you ever see this please know you've changed my life. I aspire to inspire others as you've done for me. Thank youReply
Elsie Hayward, Ca
I've always felt in my spirit that the Lord was not allowing me to expose my talent to the right people until the right time. I see in this entertainment world you can be around people who will promise you things and I always wonder why am I so talented with this singing and is not using it or why am I so shy have potential but is afraid to use it and now I know because of this confirmation. People can mislead you and when you're young they will take advantage of you because my dream is to be able to help my family as well as anyone around me. I know if I keep believing , keep praying and keep on being faithful one day he will let all my dreams come true. You know when someone is telling the truth because you will feel it the feeling of discernment, just like when you know someone is telling a lie. I won't give up the fight I will keep on doing what God tells me too until he bring it to pass. Love you Tyler God Bless youReply

Awesome message that I really needed to hear! For 7.5 years I worked for a regional airline. When I began my flight attendant career I felt one day I would be able to take my career higher (no pun intended) than a commuter airline. In January I resigned from the regional company, believing God has something so much better. The past 5 months I have applied for over 75 customer service positions with NO prevail, not even a phone call for an interview. I must confess, I've had a few moments of discouragement and frustration but recently I felt God was hiding my resume on purpose. Only He can take my mess and turn it into my message. This was conformation for me, thank you.Reply
Sharon New Jersey
Thank you for that inspirational message. Many of us feel we should be brought to the forefront all the time. We look for acceptance and we'll do just about anything to get it. In Your Words. "Maybe You're Being Hidden On Purpose". One day I would just like to write children's books that inspire a generation. We need to help them be strong in a way God wants them to be strong for this space in time. Pray for me. I thank God for your gifts of kindness to the Americans of the African Diaspora.Reply

Donggwang launches golf and country club-A A +A
Sunday, March 2, 2014
CLARK FREEPORT -- South Korea's Donggwang Construction Co. Ltd. launched last Saturday its newest golf and country club.
Levy Laus, chairman and CEO of Laus Group of Companies, joined Chairman Lee Shin Kun in the ribbon cutting ceremony.
Located at an average altitude of around 320 to 370 meters, Clark Sun Valley Country Club commands one of the best views of Clark Freeport Zone, and has various holes that give golfers the best golfing environment and "shot value."
It is composed of 36 holes- 18 holes for public and 18 holes for private.
Lee said it's going to be "one of the biggest multi-resorts in Southeast Asia." They are hoping that it will create more jobs for Filipinos, especially Kapampangans.
The Sun Valley Group owns and operates six golf courses -- four in Korea and two in Japan.
Only five kilometers away from the Clark International Airport, the country club provides comfort of an elevated area overlooking downtown Clark and Mt. Arayat National Park.
"Korea and Philippines are sister or brother countries. And because of the proximity, it is so close where lots of tourists from Korea can come to Clark easily" said Lee.
"Aside from the 36-hole golf courses, we will also have Villas with Pool, Hotel and Casino, Waterpark and Brent International School inside the country club. It will really create jobs for Filipinos. And we are hoping that this whole project will end on 2016," added Lee.
Clark Development Corporation (CDC) president Arthur Tugade expressed his support to the newly opened country club.
"Napakagandang development ito. Aakit ng turismo, oportunidad para sa mga turista at mga Cabalen. Tinuturing natin ito bilang investment paradise. At hindi lang pang-koreans ang lugar na ito, para na rin sa ating mga kababayan at iba pang nasyunalidad," said Tugade.
The leisure park is located at T-304 Jose Abad Santos Avenue inside the Freeport. For inquiries call (+63) 45-499-2165, 5103, 2166 )fax), 070-7436-5318, 5538 (Internetphone) or visit their homepage www.clarksunvalley.co.kr

KATE GOSSELIN' money-making cruise sunk faster than the Titanic on a one-way trip to Davy Jones locker!
Kate's much ballyhooed event on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship [2] has been canceled because of poor turnout and low ticket sales
RadarOnline.com [3] reported that Kate was slated to set sail August 12 to August 19 at a rate of $1,900-$3,175 per ticket, but now it's not happening.
"Yes, that event has been canceled. We just didn't get the turnout that we desired and mutually we agreed that if we didn't get it, we would cancel," President of Luxury Cruises [3], who merged with the company originally organizing the event, Alice Travel, said.
"All ticket purchasers have been notified and everyone has been refunded. Some have chosen to continue on with the cruise, but everyone was given the choice."
But don't be so quick to point the finger at the Kate Plus 8 [4] star, as we're told she felt horrible about canceling the cruise and reached out to everyone who bought tickets!
"Kate asked for everybody's names, addresses and phone numbers and reached out to each one personally," the spokeswoman said.
"It was nothing to do with her. We needed to hit certain numbers and they just weren't where they needed to be."
It was not revealed how many tickets were actually purchased.

LONDON, October 17 /PRNewswire/ --

- Business Executives Encouraged to Join Forces to Row Around the World, Raising Awareness of Stroke and Funds for the Stroke Association
Tom White, chief executive, Siemens plc, and James Cracknell OBE, double Olympic gold medallist, today launched 'Siemens Stroke for Stroke Week' in partnership with The Stroke Association. The campaign aims to highlight the positive benefits of regular exercise and to raise funds for The Stroke Association, by encouraging the business community to sign up to rowing 10k in the gym, between 3rd-9th December 2007. Siemens, the High Performance Partner of GB Rowing, hopes the campaign will see participants covering the entire distance around the world (40,076km), raising thousands of pounds for The Stroke Association to fund vital research.
Siemens has created Stroke for Stroke Week to encourage the business community to take more regular exercise which can not only improve their health and reduce stress levels, but actually help to reduce the risk of stroke by up to 27%.
Tom White, chief executive, Siemens, said: "Stroke is often associated with older people, however it can affect anyone at any age. 25% of strokes occur in people under 65 and the impact of a busy, stressful working lifestyle can increase the risk of suffering a stroke. We wanted to highlight this important issue and help to raise vital funds for The Stroke Association. I'd encourage everyone to sign up to Stroke for Stroke Week and row their 10k!"
Rowing has been identified as an ideal form of exercise for busy, stressed executives, providing an effective cardiovascular workout, without putting stress on the joints. Stroke for Stroke Week will give participants the chance to discover the benefits of regular exercise by completing a sponsored 10k row over the course of the week.
James Cracknell commented, "I am delighted to be supporting Siemens
Stroke for Stroke Week. Row

Utah center David Foster undecided about redshirt
If Utah center David Foster's broken right foot keeps him out for the entire season, the California native, who first signed with the Utes in 2006, could redshirt and come back for yet another season.
Question is, would he be interested?
Coach Larry Krystkowiak said Tuesday that Foster, who played six minutes in the exhibition opener to Adams State on Nov. 4 before limping off the court, has not seemed interested in redshirting. The 7-foot-3 center's father, however, said the decision would be more complicated.
"I think at the start of this ordeal that was the feeling," Lee Foster said, "that he wanted to come back. But I think he's kind of decided to wait and see how the healing process goes."
Instead of the defensive presence the Utes expected Foster to be, he has been a staple of the sideline at practices, on a chair or a special cart. Officially, he is still out indefinitely. At practice Tuesday, his left foot was in a brown dress sock, his right entombed in a faded red cast.
Lee Foster said his son, who led the Mountain West Conference in blocked shots last season, had never before suffered a broken bone. But Krystkowiak said Foster's long-term health could be a concern and a factor in any decisions to redshirt.
"For whatever reason, [he] hasn't had the best luck with health," Krystkowiak said. "So to sit out, redshirt and come back again next year, nothing's to say we're not going to be in the same scenario."
Instead, Krystkowiak said, the Utes would like to see Foster back with about four-to-six weeks left in the Pac-12 Conference schedule, allowing him to "finish his senior year in a productive fashion."
Lee Foster acknowledged that he is advocating for David Foster, who is expecting a child in May with his wife Britta, to sit out this season and return next year.
"We were all hyped for a huge year for him," Lee Foster said. "He had a great offseason, and it's been pretty discouraging."
Hines a starter
Two weeks into the season, Chris Hines has found his way back into the starting lineup. Hines came off the bench Saturday against Massachusetts, when he replaced Anthony Odunsi in the starting five.
He scored nine points in the loss to the Minutemen and 11 a night later against UNC-Asheville.
Krystkowiak said Hines will remain a starter.
"We need to be able to score," Krystkowiak said. "We're struggling to score and he gives us a little punch."
Bahamas trip an O-fer
The Utes fell to 1-5 over the weekend with lopsided losses to Harvard, UMass and Asheville. While the trip was discouraging, junior center Jason Washburn said the Utes have improved.
"Losing's never fun," Washburn said. "We played hard and we tried. I think we improved each game and at times we looked really, really good. But, especially in the last two games, UMass and Asheville, I think we gave them a little bit and they took it."
