Tom Aspray's article has been provided by Moneyshow.com
The relentless nature of the stock market decline over the past 12 days has been astounding, and the Dow Industrials has dropped 15%. Given the expansion of the derivatives market, the volatility is clearly higher now than it has been in past market declines.
A great example of this is seen in the action since Monday's close in the S&P futures. The September S&P futures closed Monday at 1111.25 with a low for the day of 1109.50. Overnight, the futures dropped as low as 1077 - more than 40 points below Monday's close - and then reached a high of 1148, which was 37 points above Monday's close.
Monday's drop was the largest since December 1, 2008, when the Dow dropped 680 points, although in 2008, the market regained those losses just five days later. Clearly, this decline must be looked at in a different light.
The selling in some of the individual stocks has been even more severe, as Bank of America (BAC) was down 20% on Monday alone. The relative performance, or RS analysis, for the big banks has been negative for most of the year, and in early July (see 3 Big Banks That Aren't Cheap Enough). This analysis suggested they were still vulnerable.
So is this market decline the worst, and if not, can past market declines help prepare us for what may happen next? Let's take a look at some interesting historical examples.
Chart Analysis: The market decline that is most familiar to many of today's market veterans is the plunge in 1987. From the close on October 2 at 2640, the Dow closed 11 days later at 1738.
- This was a 34.1% drop in just 11 days. On day 12, the Dow made a lower low but eventually closed up for the day.
- This was followed by sideways trading and one more drop back towards the lows in December before stocks turned higher.
- It was not until July 1989 that the Dow was able to surpass the pre-crash levels.
The bear market of the 1970s is less familiar to most, but it was pretty wicked and lasted for quite some time. It has two distinct legs, and the worst occurred in the latter part of 1974.
- The Dow peaked in June 1974 at 865 and by early August (point a), it had formed a series of lower highs.
- From the close in August until the interim low in September, point b, the Dow was down 21.3% in 21 days. A week before this low, the Dow had a two-day, 5% bounce.
- The Dow made further new lows at 584.56 (point d) in early October, which was a decline of 26.7% from the August highs.
- The Dow rallied over 20% in the next month and then dropped below the September lows in December 1974, completing the bear market bottom.
The 1973-1974 bear market lasted long enough to convince many to stay out of stocks for the next decade. The Dow peaked in early 1973 at 1067 and then dropped to a low of 845 in August.
- By early November, the Dow had rebounded 16% to close at a high of 984.80.
- Over the next 27 days, the Dow dropped 19.9% to a low close of 788.31.
- This low was followed by an eight-month trading range, and the Dow did manage to rebound over 15% from the lows before breaking to new lows in July 1974.
Over the past 100 years, there have been a number of large percentage declines in the Dow Industrials, but none compare to the decline in 1929. On October 10, 1929, the Dow had a closing high of 352.80 (point a).
- Just 14 days later, on October 29, the Dow had dropped 34.8% (point b).
- In the following two days, the Dow rallied over 18% (point c) before the decline resumed.
- The low on November 13 at 198.7 (point d) represented a drop of 43.7% in just 22 trading days.
- The last leg of the decline was the most severe, and from the rebound high (point c) to the November low (point d), the Dow dropped 27.3% in just eight trading days.
What It Means: These four examples illustrate that our current market decline is not an isolated event, but it also does not help us to determine how much further the decline can go. Before the opening on Tuesday, the Dow futures were up 140 points, but a higher close is what is needed to stem the slide.
Market history does tell us that a 15% to 20% market rally is likely over the next few months. If you measure this from Monday's close at 10,809, this could take the Dow back above 12,000.
How to Profit: Though it is very difficult to avoid when the market is plunging, panic selling is generally a poor idea. That is why I advocate placing sell stops on all long positions, because you can then avoid second guessing the original decision to buy.
If you are currently long stocks that have not been stopped out, you should get an opportunity to lighten those positions or adjust your portfolio at higher levels.

For the third straight week, 50's The Massacre will claim Billboard's proverbial pole position, according to SoundScan figures. The album, 50's follow-up to 2003's Get Rich or Die Tryin', sold more than 364,000 copies, for a three-week total of almost 2.3 million units. Despite a sales plummet of more than 50 percent, The Massacre maintains its place at the top of the charts, begging the obvious question: Can 50 Cent be stopped?
According to next week's sales tally, not anytime soon. The combined musical might of U2, Gwen Stefani, Lindsay Lohan, Nelly, Snoop Dogg, Destiny's Child, Good Charlotte and Ashanti, in the form of Now That's What I Call Music! Volume 18, will prove itself to be the strapping rapper's toughest opponent — with first-week retail scans of nearly 339,000. But in the end, Now 18's still no match for the likes of 50.
The week's other big debuts — Baby Bash's Super Saucy (#11), Brooke Valentine's Chain Letter (#16), Crosby, Stills and Nash's Greatest Hits (#24), the Kaiser Chiefs' Employment (#86) and Daft Punk's Human After All (#98) — will all infiltrate the top 100, but lag far behind The Massacre.
Sales of surfer-turned-acoustic-rocker Jack Johnson's hit In Between Dreams will fall just below the 100,000 mark to take a distant third, while Green Day's acclaimed American Idiot will climb one position on the Billboard sales chart to #4, with sales of close to 76,000 in its 26th week of release. Not surprisingly, sales of Jackson's 2003 album On and On have picked up in the wake of his surging popularity: The LP moves from #162 to 135 on next week's chart, with sales swelling 23 percent (pardon the surfing puns).
Former G-Unit foot soldier the Game's The Documentary slides two spots to #5, with more than 67,000 records flying from retail shelves. Kelly Clarkson's Breakaway is right behind Compton's finest, coming in at #6 with more than 66,000 scans. Jennifer Lopez's latest, Rebirth, takes #7 with somewhat disappointing sales; with little more than 60,000 albums sold, Jenny's record has barely moved 408,000 copies after its third week of release.
My Chemical Romance, who will be opening for Green Day next month, have breached the top 50 with their album, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. Powered by the band's two popular videos — "Helena" and "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)" — sales of the album climbed 10 percent last week, with just over 20,000.
The Napoleon Dynamite soundtrack got a 75-percent sales surge that a representative at SoundScan said was due to the label's belated request to combine digital sales (i.e. iTunes and other digital formats) with physical album sales. The album re-enters the Top 200 at #159 on more than 6,000 copies sold last week.
Honor Roll = More Sales?
Next week's chart will feature several big movers, including U2's How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb. The sales spike came the week after the Irish rockers were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. With more than 23,000 scans, a 26-percent increase over the previous week's sales, U2 will secure the #39 chart position.
Kanye West, who took home Outstanding New Artist honors from last weekend's NAACP Image Awards, saw a slight bump in sales for his College Dropout. The album climbs eleven spots to #93, with more than 11,000 units sold.
Next week could mark the end of an era, as 50 Cent's supremacy will face competition from Queens of the Stone Age's Lullabies to Paralyze, Moby's Hotel, Frankie J's The One and Tweet's It's Me Again. Only time will tell if 50's chart dominance can withstand further attacks, but if the trail of records left in his commercial wake tell us anything, it's that 50 isn't going to go silently.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Wildcat Haven, Inc., Sherwood, OR, USA
So I thought this was supposed to be an SMALL cat sanctuary? when did cougars and tigers become part of the small cat family.
Doesn't it make sense that the small cats would be terrified?
Who´s interest is being served here?
Also, did this breeder not sell servals to a hybid breeder in Nevada?
Why is she being a hypocrit and critizing cat breeding when she did it herself?
Frankly i must say, this seems like a way to support a personal addiction to cat ownership and present a holier than thou attitude. It is ok for her but no one else! Who died and made her God?

Contribution to government objectives
QIMR Berghofer contributes to the Queensland Government's objective of 'Creating jobs for a diverse economy'. The Institute is experiencing a period of accelerated growth. We are actively recruiting researchers in areas of high importance to Queensland—including tropical diseases, vaccine development, cancer and genetics—to increase its capacity to approximately 1000 staff and students, offering more than 300 new jobs in Queensland. Each of the three themes; Cancer, Infectious Diseases and Mental Health/Complex Disorders has been selected to align with the needs of Queensland.
We directly contribute to the Queensland Government's objectives relating to a stronger public health system by translating the knowledge we produce and discoveries we make into improved clinical practice. By advancing medical knowledge and improving public health, we also contribute to the Queensland Government's objective of building a safe, connected and caring community. Our research in cancer is particularly important given our ageing population. Our work in infectious diseases, especially tropical diseases, is vital given the increasing numbers of people living in the tropics and the pole-ward migration of species due to climate change bringing tropical diseases closer to major population centres. Our research into mental health and complex disorders, such as dementia, Alzheimer's and depression, addresses rises in the incidence of these diseases due to demographic and social changes. Our work is helping to broaden and deepen Queensland's economic base, especially in the high-value, high-growth health and medical sector.
QIMR Berghofer is a translational research facility, where research develops from the laboratory bench through to the patient's bedside. The Institute's research supports different Queensland scientific and medical sectors by researching and creating new and improved treatments and screening programs for various diseases and disorders.
QIMR Berghofer's research focuses on improving the prevention, treatment and diagnosis of a range of diseases and conditions relevant to Queenslanders, which will help address pressures facing the public health care sector, by lessening rates of disease, improving quality of life and health care practices.
Implementation and monitoring
The QIMR Berghofer Strategic Plan defines the scope and broad directions for all other planning activities undertaken by the Institute. Monitoring of performance will occur via systems and processes established to enable the Institute to report against its obligations as a statutory authority. Recently introduced performance assessment indicators will monitor 85 parameters and report annually on qualitative measures.

USA Information Systems, Inc. (USAInfo) protests the manner in which the Department of the Air Force amended the terms of request for quotations (RFQ) No. F16602-02-Q-S9A3, issued to acquire a 1-year Internet-based network subscription service for various military and engineering specifications, instructions, and regulations. USAInfo argues that by posting the amendment online with a short response time, without specifically advising the firm, the agency prevented it from timely protesting the amended solicitation's terms.
We deny the protest.

I spent over a week searching and testing various Live Chat services before settling on LiveChatInc.
The chat system is extremely easy to use, the Agent and Customer interfaces are great and the customer interface is fully customisable via CSS (if you have the right package).
Their pricing is reasonable, a major not of benefit over other paid chat hosts is that LiveChatInc limits based on active-seats, you can have 30 different operators if you want with their own logins and profiles and only pay for 1 seat, this only limits how many agents can take chats concurrently.
Another major reason we went with this service is due to the user interface being 100% mobile friendly, the interface looks great on mobile and tablet devices, something which we found a great many of the others on WP to be lacking.
A final note, their own live-chat support was also extremely responsive and helped us immediately with a little of the customisation we wanted for our site.
Does exactly what it say which is easily and nicely adds their service to your website without having to write a line of code.
The service itself is very well put together. Nicely done.
You are right!

Inside the Mind of a Twelve-Year-Old Boy
Have you ever wondered what a twelve-year-old boy thinks of? It's better if you don't, but I know you're curious now, so check this out.
Have you ever wondered what a twelve-year-old boy thinks of? It's better if you don't, but I know you're curious now, so check this out.
Are you trying to get healthier and look younger? Well, scientists have discovered a simple and effective method to achieving your desired results. Morning sex.
Not having sex with animals seems like common sense, but you would be surprised how many people around the world are still trying to tap some random ass, literally.
Deny it all you want you damned dirty ape, but we got you on camera!
I've always heard that every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten. And now we have proof, if you believe everything you read on the internet.
Trying to pick up girls may be a daunting task for some.
But what about if you were to just straight up ask women if they wanted to have sex with you?
It would most likely not go so well and would probably get you slapped.
But what if you were to ask hundreds of women? You're bound to get at least one yes, right?
A 68-year-old grandmother in Florida has been sentenced to six months in prison after being busted for public sex with a 49-year-old guy, WKMG Local 6 reported.
Yesterday, I was looking through our stock photos and I noticed something. We have a ton of pictures of animals doing the nasty! So I thought I'd share them with you.
Is it a dog? Is it a cat? Oh wait, it's just her husband on the end of that leash.
You can finally sleep easy. The answer to your burning question is finally being answered!
Here's one way to end your relationship, document every time your woman has rejected your sexual advances and then email it to her. That should work.
Sometimes, the mood just strikes you and you need to do the deed.
A couple from Newark, Del., can relate to that all too well. In this case, they were so horny that they just needed to do it right then and right there. And right there just happened to be the roof of the local Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurant.

Jacqueline Oknaian has costumed Ugly Betty (2008-10), Sex and the City 2 (2010) and The Big C (2012-13), so it might be fair to say contemporary clothing is her forte. For The Intern she dressed Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro in that most tricky of cinematic costume: 'office attire'. Fashion and practicality collide in what needs to be stylish but relatable clothing inside a believable setting. Here Ms Oknaian chats exclusively about her work on the film.
Anne Hathaway has the perfect office wardrobe, where did you get your inspiration for her smart, but chic looks?
I related to her character personally because I'm a mother and I've worked in fashion, I used to be a personal shopper in Barney's, then I got into styling. I had a lot of friends that worked in the fashion industry for mothers who need to look fashionable, smart chic, modern »

Production is underway on Warner Bros. Pictures' drama Sully starring Oscar winner Tom Hanks (upcoming "Bridge of Spies," "Captain Phillips," "Forrest Gump") as Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger, under the direction of Oscar winner Clint Eastwood ("American Sniper," "Million Dollar Baby").
On January 15, 2009, the world witnessed the "Miracle on the Hudson" when Captain "Sully" Sullenberger (Hanks) glided his disabled plane onto the frigid waters of the Hudson River, saving the lives of all 155 aboard. However, even as Sully was being heralded by the public and the media for his unprecedented feat of aviation skill, an investigation was unfolding that threatened to destroy his reputation and his career.
Sully also stars Aaron Eckhart ("Olympus Has Fallen," "The Dark Knight") as Sully's co-pilot, Jeff Skiles, and Oscar nominee Laura Linney ("The Savages," "Kinsey," Showtime's "The Big C") as Sully's wife, Lorraine Sullenberger.
Eastwood is directing the film from a screenplay by Todd Komarnicki, »

Alternating between indie-circuit hits (Young Ones) and blockbuster hits (Maleficent), Elle Fanning has worked steadily to emerge out of older sister Dakota's Hollywood shadow, and she'll be aiming squarely for the hearts and minds of the Ya crowd in upcoming project All the Bright Places. This morning, producers have announced that Fanning will team with Youth in Revolt director Miguel Arteta for the pic, an adaptation of Jennifer Niven's novel.
Fanning has been attached to the lead role of Violet since last year. Niven herself is penning the script for the adaptation, which is a priority for financiers Demarest Media and Mazur/Kaplan.
Said Arteta:
"Violet and Finch's achingly heartfelt and authentic story is the most convincing portrayal of teenage life I have ever come across. It's such a privilege to bring it to the screen with the help of its engaging author and the »

On Saturday, July 25, he'll be leading a production design masterclass focused on Orange is the New Black at the Ifp's Made in New York Media Center.

Irrational Man is the 45th feature that Woody Allen has directed, but what's perhaps more shocking is that it's his first film with actress Parker Posey. Triumphantly wearing the crown of "Queen of the Indies" during her prolific 1990s, it's a shock and wonder Posey hasn't already worked with Allen, who could easily be labeled the Godfather of the genre.
While Irrational Man may be the start of a fruitful collaboration between the two, Posey has a long history of working with other notable American independent filmmakers. Whether as the star or as a cameo she has the ability to bring a jolt of energy that feels strong enough alone to power a complete film. When utilizing Posey, it's the director who finds their own way to harness her energy and shape it into the memorable moments that often bear multiple viewings. Looking back on »

The San Diego Comic-Con is mostly known for being a platform for studios to unveil and discuss their new big cinematic projects. This has held true this year, with films such as Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice garnering significant attention. However, this doesn't mean that smaller films aren't able to get their own moment in the spotlight.
One such film is the upcoming horror feature The Hive. The film marks the second feature directorial effort from filmmaker David Yarovesky, who also co-wrote the film with Will Honley. The synopsis is as follows.
A young man suffering from amnesia must dig deep into the far reaches of his mind to remember who he is and save the love of his life before a virus that has infected him takes over.

The age of the TV anti-hero may be drawing to a close, but the TV anti-heroine is just getting started.
This week, as we welcome back Piper Chapman and her fellow prison inmates (with binge-viewers catching up with the third-season launch of Netflix's "Orange Is the New Black" last Friday), and as we're introduced to Ani Bezzerides -- Rachel McAdams new morally ambiguous cop on Season 2 of HBO's "True Detective," debuting this Sunday -- TV viewers are becoming fully invested in dramas whose female leads are every bit as complicated, fascinating, charismatic, dangerous, and messily human as the Don Drapers and Tony Sopranos of the recent past.

Bill Condon chats to us about Sir Ian McKellen, Benedict Cumberbatch, Beauty & The Beast, and Mr Holmes...
We caught up with director Bill Condon recently to chat about his new film Mr Holmes, a fictional biopic of the famous Baker Street sleuth played by Sir Ian McKellen. Condon has a vast and wide-ranging career in the movies with titles like the outstanding Gods & Monsters and Kinsey sitting beside showstoppers like Dreamgirls and The Twilight Saga.
Despite suffering from a bout of hay fever (your author was suffering too, dear reader), Bill was warm and friendly, and we bonded over our mutual love for the Disney animated film Beauty And The Beast (which he is currently directing a live action remake of).
How did Mr Holmes come about? Was this a project that you were keen to do?

Director: Bill Condon; Screenwriter: Jeffrey Hatcher; Starring: Ian McKellen, Laura Linney, Milo Parker, Roger Allam, Frances de la Tour; Running time: 104 mins; Certificate: PG
Sherlock Holmes has never been more popular, what with Robert Downey Jr, Benedict Cumberbatch and Johnny Lee Miller all putting their stamp on the character in a big-budget movie franchise and concurrent TV series respectively. With low-key drama Mr Holmes, director Bill Condon goes farther out into imagined realms, casting Ian McKellen as the Baker Street detective at 93, when that famous intellect is beginning to fail, leading him on a fascinating, quite poignant search of his own soul.
Mitch Cullin's source novel A Slight Trick of the Mind takes a mischievous leap by crediting the work of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to the recently deceased Dr Watson. These books are an endless source of bemusement for Holmes who, in 1947, is retired and living in the Sussex countryside, »

Fault in Our Tastes: Teenage Death Gets Warmed Over in Gomez-Rejon's Celebrated Sophomore Film
Taking home the Grand Jury and Audience prize following its warmly received premiere at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival, Alfonso Gomez-Rejon's sophomore film Me and Earl and the Dying Girl is set to blaze through its welcoming audience of American indie quirk cinema. At heart, this is yet another example of maudlin angst repackaged in brighter colors meant to affix itself within the appropriateness of modern mainstream appeal concerning teens touched by cancer, recalling a similarly celebrated The Fault in Our Stars (2014). The friendship at the center of this narrative remains surprisingly platonic, but the mechanics of this endeavor are still rooted in basic tropes.
The big C could just as easily be replaced by the standard class issues breaking apart heterosexual youths, friends with benefits or otherwise, over the past century of cinema (Romeo »

The addition of Tyler Perry to the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2" cast was pretty surprising, but that oddity has just been trumped: Laura Linney has reportedly joined the ensemble.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Linney will star in the sequel to the recently-rebooted "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" series in an undisclosed role. The actress has favored dramatic and awards-baiting fare in the past (she's a three-time Oscar nominee, and Golden Globe and Emmy winner for her work on Showtime dramedy "The Big C"), so her addition to the big-budget, effects-heavy, kid-friendly franchise is certainly a bit of a headscratcher; we'll be interested to see just who she's playing once more details are revealed.
Linney joins Perry, Steven Amell, and Brian Tee as fresh faces in the flick. Megan Fox and Will Arnett will reprise their roles from the 2014 film.

Like an exquisite meal sitting on a wobbly restaurant table, this week's installment of The Good Wife had its delicious moments — marred by the intermittent/aggravating vibe that somebody at the top of the food chain really ought to be paying a little more attention to detail.
I mean, do we honestly believe Chicago drug kingpin Lemond Bishop would leave all his precious secrets on an unguarded computer in his home office? Or that Alicia and Diane would ignore their own gut instincts and professional experience — and put their faith in He Who Could Double as a Sneering, D. »

Three episodes were provided for reviewing purposes prior to broadcast.
Showtime's new half-hour dramedy Happyish is a bit off-brand for the network, which usually slots the hero-with-a-dark-secret into a thirty-minute show blueprint. The new show is less Weeds, Nurse Jackie or The Big C and more Californication: a loose character study about a middle-aged guy trying to desperately fight to establish his own existence and find a reason for it. Steve Coogan's Thom Payne has no grand, mysterious backstory or any blatant reason to tip-toe carefully around revealing a second life to his friends and family. He just goes to work, loves his family and occasionally imagines advertising characters talking to him.
Ah, there's the quirky hook you were waiting for. See, Thom is an advertising exec for a company with accounts like Coca-Cola and Geico. The pilot presents a guy with an average life – wife, son, »

I Was Just Thinking......
Thoughts of life and faith by our leadership
When I was asked to write a blog for Back To School, I thought, "You're kidding? Already? That means summer is almost over!" It's hard to believe it's that time of year again. As I write this my grandson Weston had his first day at 4K. His parents took a picture of him by a birch tree outside their home. It was deja vu for me. We took pictures of all our children by a birch tree outside our home on the first day of school each year. Pretty soon those pictures were circulating via text messages throughout our family.

IfG response to PAC report on private contractors
The Public Accounts Committee has today published a report into government outsourcing: "Contracting out public services to the private sector". The report makes a number of recommendations that echo previous research by the Institute for Government in our landmark publication - 'Making Public Service Markets Work'.
Responding to the latest Public Accounts Committee report, Director of Research at the Institute for Government, Tom Gash, said:
"The PAC report is right to call for greater transparency in government contracts, more competition, and improved Whitehall skills – all of which we have called for in previous research. Without more transparency the public cannot tell who is providing what services where, how well they are doing and at what cost. Without competition, government can find itself with no choice, unable to get a good deal for the taxpayer. Without improved skills, Whitehall will continue to fail to spot under-performance or even fraud.
"Real efforts are now required to help rebuild public trust in the government's ability to manage contracted services. A good first step would be to introduce standardised transparency clauses in all government contracts, ensuring providers publish details of cost, services, performance and details of any work they sub-contract to others."

Partying at Hollywood's Colony nightclub, Cox, 47, joined Aniston, 42, and Theroux, 39, to nosh on chow mein and other snacks at the exclusive bash, attended by Jason Bateman, Jennifer Love Hewitt and others.
"Jen had a glow to her and looked amazing; it was obvious she was in a good state of mind," a source at the bash told Us Weekly of Aniston, who took her romance with the actor-screenwriter public earlier this month.
In the weeks since debuting her new relationship, Aniston has adopted a relaxed approach when it comes to packing on the PDA with her beau.
"She doesn't want him to get frustrated with her usual covert way of doing things," a Theroux source told Us of Aniston's decision to come out of hiding with their romance. "So she's compromising and relaxing about the paparazzi."
Her plan of action appears to be working quite well thus far. "Yes, I'm very happy," the actress recently said during a "Good Morning America" press appearance when asked about her personal life. "I'm extremely lucky, and I'm extremely happy."
