Van Gaal regrets lengthy US tourComment on this story
Los Angeles – New Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has bemoaned the club's lengthy pre-season tour to the US and said it is not helping preparations for the English domestic campaign.
United play Los Angeles Galaxy at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena on Wednesday and then have at least three more matches in Denver, Washington and Detroit as part of the International Champions Cup.
They could play a fourth, in Miami on August 4, if they reach the final after the matches against AS Roma, Inter Milan and Real Madrid.
"More or less, yes," Van Gaal told British media in the United States, when asked whether the demands were hindering his work.
"We have to prepare the season and when you have commercial activities and dreadful distances, having to fly a lot and the jet lag, it is not very positive for a good preparation."
The former Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Ajax Amsterdam coach only took over at United this month after leading the Netherlands to third place at the World Cup.
He said he would adapt to the demands and praised the facilities in California as he put his new charges through their paces ahead of his English Premier League debut at home to Swansea City on August 16.
"The tour was already arranged and I shall adapt and United will do everything to apply to my rules, but I have said that already," the Dutch coach said after arriving 30 minutes later to meet journalists.
"This is the first time I am late for a press conference, but it is the Los Angeles traffic, so I am sorry for that."
Last year, United went on a lengthy pre-season tour of Thailand, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong after agreeing several commercial deals in the region.
Van Gaal said he expected United's next tour, likely to be in Asia again, to be much shorter.
"Yes, I hope that it will be, but they (the United board)have already said that to me and I am very confident that it shall be." – Reuters

Sick of the cold? Hang on, the warmth will be coming by April, according to the spring forecast released Thursday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
"We have been experiencing an unusually cold pattern," admits climatologist Ed O'Lenic of the Climate Prediction Center. How cold? So far this month, for example, Chicago's temperatures are running about 5 degrees below average, according to the National Weather Service. This is a wild swing in the weather from last March, when the Windy City had temperatures that were more than 15 degrees above average.

|Interconversion of Stereochemically Labile Enantiomers (Enantiomerization).
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23756848 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|The investigation of the molecular dynamics of stereoisomers is of fundamental interest in chemistry, biochemistry, medicine, and related areas. In recent years enantioselective dynamic chromatography and enantioselective dynamic capillary electrophoresis (DCE) have been established as versatile tools to investigate the kinetics of interconversions of stereoisomers. The term dynamic chromatography and dynamic electrophoresis, following the term dynamic NMR (DNMR) (Grathwohl and Wüthrich, Biopolymers 20:2623-2633, 1981; Wüthrich, Angew Chem Int Ed 42:3340-3363, 2003; Binsch et al., Angew Chem Int Ed 10:570-572, 1971), stresses the dynamic (Herschbach, Angew Chem Int Ed 26:1221-1243, 1987) behavior of analytes to interconvert between two stereoisomeric forms during the separation process. If the interconversion process is slow compared to the separation of the enantiomers, which can be achieved by accelerating the separation process or lowering the temperature, partial separation with characteristic plateau formation or peak broadening is observed.This chapter gives an overview of recent advances in the study of stereodynamics of molecules by dynamic chromatography (Trapp et al., Chirality 13:403-414, 2001; D'Acquarica et al., J Sep Sci 29:1508-1516, 2006; Wolf, Chem Soc Rev 34:595-608, 2005; Wolf, Dynamic stereochemistry of chiral compounds - principles and applications. RSC Publishing, Cambridge, 2008) and capillary electrophoresis. Models and algorithms to evaluate interconversion profiles obtained by separation techniques are discussed with respect to the challenging demands of high separation efficiencies typical of modern separation techniques. Models used for evaluation are based on iterative computer simulation algorithms using the theoretical plate model (TPM) or stochastic model of chromatography, empirical calculation methods, derived from equations used in chemical engineering, namely Damköhler analysis, and direct access using the approximation function, and more recently the unified equation of chromatography, which can be applied to all kinds of first-order reactions taking place during a chromatographic or electrophoretic separation. Furthermore, areas of applications to investigate stereodynamic processes are presented and discussed to give a practical guide for using dynamic chromatography and capillary electrophoresis.

Krewe History
Krewe Rugby started in 1991 after breaking away from another local rugby club, Tampa RFC. With a goal of starting a locally respected team, Krewe aimed at saving a strongly bonded group of rugby players. Starting with 17 players, the team was told time after time they would fail by other local clubs. Playing their games in St. Petersburg, Krewe traced many challenges both on and off the field. They played Tampa RFC, their former team, a few times and never lost. Through these tough times, Krewe endured practices with only 4 players and other challenges presented to this relatively new team. Krewe always found enough guvs to play their games no matter what.
The Krewe is ultimately a large rugby family providing opportunities for men, women, and youth rugby players throughout the west-central region of Florida. The Krewe began as most rugby teams do with a small core of dedicated ruggers committed to forming a local club. Today, the Krewe has expanded into a preeminent club both on and off the pitch. On the pitch, Krewe is an amateur rugby club that operates under USA Rugby. Our teams compete through a fall pre-season and a winter/spring regular season with matches across Florida and throughout the southeastern United States. Post season play requires travel up the eastern seaboard and ultimately out to Glendale, CO where the USA Rugby National Championships are held each year. Off the pitch, Krewe has partnered with the Lowry Park Zoo, Toys for Tots, the Pediatric Cancer Foundation and the North Tampa Boys and Girls Club as we fulfill our own commitment to being good community partners. In 2012 we will hold our first Rugby Skills Sports Camp for grade school athletes across Tampa Bay to introduce them to the sport of rugby.
Our demographics are deep between the international players, our national elite athletes, our weekend warriors, the men, women, and Old Boys who boot up every Tuesday and Thursday night for practice, and the young players we involve through our Youth Academy and skills camp. We have nearly fifty players registered through USA Rugby. Our coaches and players live in Hernando, Hillsborough, Manatee, Pasco, and Pinellas County. The bulk of our members are males between the ages of 22 – 40 many of whom were college athletes at some level and continue to spend a significant amount of their free time engaged in training and competing in athletics. Our players are employed in all sectors of the economy as doctors and lawyers, software and medical device salespeople, members of the Armed forces, and construction and manual labor workers. We also have a very strong contingent of service members within our ranks and we appreciate their commitment to our country and our team. With full time jobs our players are invested in the effort and expense it takes to train and compete to be a part of Krewe rugby.
Home Field Advantage
In the fall of 2012 the Krewe moved their home field to Cuscaden Park located in the historic Ybor area of Tampa Bay. Cuscaden Park has a rich history in sports from baseball greats to boxing and now Rugby.

The Alice Griffin Jewel Box Theatre
480 West 42nd Street
FINAL ANALYSIS is set in turn-of-the-century Vienna -- the crossroads of civilization -- a major confluence of art, music, science and politics. But, festering beneath the façade of frivolity and joy, the city is rotting at its core, sickened by moral corruption, obsessed with death, and ravaged by a growing hatred of the Jews.
Against a backdrop of moral decay, social and political shifts -- Gustav Mahler, the great composer and conductor, falls in love with the talented, tempestuous Alma Schindler; Joseph Stalin meets a dangerous young man over a game of chess; Ludwig Wittgenstein, destined to become a dominant force in world philosophy, runs into an old schoolmate with unpleasant consequences, and in the midst of this, Sigmund Freud faces what he has always denied -- the essential evil nature of man.

WATTSVILLE, TEXAS. Wattsville was on Farm Road 514 seven miles northwest of Emory in northern Rains County. It was settled around the time of the Civil War. In the mid-1930s the settlement had a church, a store, and a number of scattered dwellings. After World War II the store closed, and in the early 1990s only a cemetery and a few houses remained.

UVI soccer beats P.R. team
Published: October 24, 2011
Font size: [A] [A] [A]
ST. THOMAS - The University of the Virgin Islands men's soccer team defeated the University of Puerto Rico Bayamon, 4-1, on Saturday at the Bayamon Soccer Complex.
The win moves UVI to 2-1-2 on the season, and Head Coach Yohannes Worde said that they will be in either second or third place in league play depending on the results of other games over the weekend.
"I was very impressed," Worde said. "It really a team effort. We have an excellent group of guys."
Worde said that UVI came out with a low-pressure offense in the first 20 minutes. They then moved Denny Smith to striker and he did his job at the 24-minute mark to put UVI up, 1-0.
Bayamon equalized the game about 10 minutes later and the half ended, 1-1.
UVI tallied three more goals, one each from Mohammed Yusuf, Suresh Sookraj and Javed Rawlins, to earn a solid victory.
"Getting goals from so many different players, teams have a hard time figuring out who our danger man is," Worde said.
Worde gave special recognition to defender Dimitri Maduro and goalie Troy Misseau.
He added that the team has learned to play together even though half of the squad is from St. Croix and half is from St. Thomas. They are unable to practice together regularly but have developed good technical skills.

Words by Jesse Serwer, Photo by Karsten Moran—
Rastafarians as a rule take great effort to avoid Babylon. The Congos' Watty Burnett, however, does most of his shopping in Babylon… Babylon, Long Island that is. This, we learn, in a surprising and entertaining profile on Burnett in Sunday's New York Times, which, among other things, seizes on the incongruousness of a famed Rastafarian musician living in close proximity to a town whose name symbolizes all that is wicked in Rasta lore. Here's one particularly amusing anecdote:
Mr. Burnett remembers a trip to Freeport from Manhattan on the Long Island Rail Road, accompanied by the bass player for the Congos, Tony Allen.
"When we got to Queens, the conductor said, 'This is Jamaica, last stop Babylon!' " he said. "We got really angry. We thought, 'This guy's messing with us!' "
Burnett, the article tell us, has been living near the gates of Babylon (L.I.) in uber-suburban Dix Hills, Long Island, for 30 years now, working as a part-time electrician while raising two children and occasionally making music. With the Congos reformed, touring again and garnering positive reviews for Icon Give Thank, a 2012 collaboration with experimental musicians Sun Araw and M. Geddes Gengras, the bass vocalist's career is entering something of a renaissance. This year, Burnett says, he plans to release three albums—one produced by an independent label in Switzerland; a 14-track ska LP with cameos from Ernest Ranglin and Stranger Cole; and a compilation of his solo recordings at Black Ark Studio.
Reggae nerds may also crack a smile upon learning that it was "Police and Thieves" singer Junior Murvin, a boyhood neighbor of Watty's in Port Antonio, gave him his nickname, on account of a boyhood stuttering problem that caused listeners to ask: What?
Check out the full article, and accompanying video here.

When he's finished promoting 'Black Panties,' R. Kelly will be getting into the festive spirit by making on his own Christmas album - but fans will have to wait until 2014 to hear his christmassy offerings.
Although he started work on the album in 2012, other projects including his recently-released 12th studio album and collaborations with Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga have meant the festive record has been shelved for the time being.
R Kelly has surprised everyone with his Christmas album announcement (Dave Bedrosian/Future Image/WENN)
The crooner, real name Robert Sylvester Kelly, revealed to Rap-Up.com that he's already named the album, saying: "I'm working on a Christmas album right now called the 12 Nights of Christmas". The 46-year-old also confirmed that fans can expect a typically sexy style - it's probably not going to be a family-friendly collection.
"It's gonna be a lot of lovemaking," he added. "I come with that bearing gifts."
R. Kelly is in no rush to finish the record, explaining that he wasn't willing to rush the creative process to release the album in time for Christmas 2013. "I started it last Christmas actually, but I don't believe in just putting out a Christmas album just to sell records," he said.
"It has to be the next [This Christmas]. In order to get that and capture that moment, you have to take a couple of Christmases and then you come with it."
The 'Ignition (Remix)' creator teasingly added that he has another regular album on the way, adding that it will recreate the tone of his multi-platinum selling debut '12 Play'. "My next album is halfway written already. I haven't named it yet. It's gonna be another 12 Play album," he revealed. "It's gonna be that type of album because there's been a lovemaking album drought…and I've come to save the day."
R. Kelly has also been on tour this year (JLN Photography/WENN)
The singer-songwriter and producer has made a name for himself where sexy tracks are concerned, releasing his own singles including 'The Greatest Sex' and 'Feelin' On Yo Booty'. He also helped out Justin Bieber last month, pairing up with the 'Baby' singer to create the saucy track 'PYD'.
R. Kelly has had a busy year, creating festive song 'Christmas, I'll Be Steppin'' for 'The Best Man Holiday' movie soundtrack, releasing his own album and pairing up with Lady Gaga to create the hit single 'Do What U Want'. The duo shocked viewers during their saucy performance of the track at the AMAs last month, simulating sex on-stage as they sung the raunchy track.
The 46-year-old recently announced that he's working on more chapters of his 'Hip Hopera' 'Trapped In The Closet', new episodes will be aired via the website IFC in 2014.

Biting down on anesthesia-free dentistries
By Christie Keith
December 29, 2006
The other day I went to get a haircut, a manicure and pedicure. In order to be licensed to do my hair, my hairdresser had to attend 1,200 hours of training and pass a state board exam, with a couple hundred of those hours spent on issues pertaining to health and safety: Sanitation, recognizing some common diseases of the skin and scalp, how to work safely with chemicals such as bleach, perm solution, and hair color. The manicurist also had to go to school, although only for a few hundred hours total, but much of that was spent learning how to recognize nail and skin diseases and parasites, as well as proper sanitation.
So, knowing all that, I quite naturally asked them if they'd be willing to clean my teeth, because I didn't have time to get to my dentist before the holidays.
OK, I didn't, because I'm not, you know, stupid. And yet, it seems that pet owners are thought to be that stupid, and some of us apparently actually are, because there are a few dog and cat groomers who market a service they call "anesthesia-free dental cleanings.â€
Your ears perhaps perked up when you heard that. Who doesn't want to avoid the risks of anesthesia for their pets, especially older or sick pets? We don't need full anesthesia to get our teeth cleaned, so really, why do our pets? And it would certainly be nice to get all that nasty tartar off your dog's or cat's teeth, and have a fresh, clean mouth breathing in your face first thing in the morning again.
It sounds even more appealing, because many of the people offering this service have invented official-sounding names for what they do, such as "pet dental hygienist,†which really does sound an awful lot more qualified than "groomer,†even though it's not.
Since there is no such thing as a "pet dental hygienist.â€
There are, of course, registered and certified veterinary technicians with special training in veterinary dentistry, who work with veterinarians. And one such specially trained vet tech is Nancy Campbell, RVT, VDT.
Nancy has a terrific blog called Vet Techs, and she posted there one day about the dangers of unqualified people doing medical procedures — which is what dentistries are — on dogs and cats. And in the way of the Internets, eventually her post found its way to the attention of the people whose actions she was criticizing, at which point they engaged in a civil discussion of their differences, allowing pet owners to examine all sides of the issue and make up their own minds, right?
Hi, new around here?
No, they descended on her blog with a storm of abuse and vitriol more appropriate for a serial killer than a vet tech. Nearly every one of these posts was, of course, anonymous, because it's hard to be quite as vicious as some of these people were and then sign your name.
The thing is, Nancy's position is basically unassailable. The type of tooth scraping that can be done on a dog or cat without anesthesia is cosmetic only; it might make the owner happy, but it does nothing at all to detect or prevent or treat dental disease in pets.
It also runs the substantial risk of infecting the bloodstream with oral bacteria, which can lead to kidney, heart, and other infections and disease — something that no groomer or "pet dental hygienist†can diagnose or treat. And most critically, debris from the mouth can be inhaled, causing pneumonia and other respiratory complications — something that can only be avoided if the pet is intubated during the procedure.
Nancy's primary concern is that the promotion of such services only makes owner fears of anesthesia worse, making it harder for her to do her job, and setting pets up for serious health consequences. One of the vets who commented on her post included a link to photos of a dog who was getting such "anesthesia-free dental cleanings†for years, who had to have many of his teeth removed, and whose mouth was an infected mess.
The real culprit in dental disease is not the tartar you can see, but the bacterial growth you can't see, under the gums, in gingival pockets, and in the bone. It's not possible to properly examine a pet's mouth while they're awake, let alone actually probe gingival pockets and detect infection in the bone. Scraping off the visible tartar may make the teeth prettier; it does nothing for the pet's health. And if it stops an owner from getting proper dental care for a pet who needs it, or masks a serious dental problem, causes aspiration pnuemonia, or worst of all, seeds the bloodstream with oral bacteria, how is this a good thing? How is this safer than anesthesia?
Check out Nancy's thoughts, and then check out the thoughts of the American Veterinary Dental College … and think long and hard before letting your
hairdresser pet's groomer clean your his teeth.

Rep. Gary Peters' new television ad.
- Filed Under
U.S. Rep. Gary Peters today unveiled the first TV ads of his U.S. Senate campaign, two biographical spots set to air during Friday's Michigan and Michigan State basketball games.
Peters of Bloomfield Township has been in the race for most of a year and is the only Democrat expected on the ticket. His presumptive Republican opponent, former Michigan Secretary of State Terri Lynn Land, has been in a virtual tie with Peters in the early polling.
No Republican has won a U.S. Senate race in Michigan since 1994, but several pundits have said the race could be close. The conservative Americans for ...

Michael Mulgrew has an op-ed in today's Daily News on why the State Senate and Assembly must extend the state tax on upper-income earners.
Hedge fund magnate John Paulson — who reportedly made $5 billion personally last year — reacted recently to Occupy Wall Street protesters by talking about how much the top 1% of New York City families pay in income taxes. What he didn't talk about was how the same 1% made nearly half (44%) of all the income in the city, or that when all state and local taxes are taken into account, the richest taxpayers in fact pay a lower percentage of their total income in taxes than do people in the middle.
Meanwhile, with unemployment levels stubbornly high, median family income declining and public services under budget pressure, times are getting tougher for almost everyone else.
Public school class sizes in New York City — already far higher than in surrounding communities — are getting bigger still. Our annual survey in September showed that an estimated one-quarter of the city's public school children were in one or more oversize classes as the school year began. After-school programs are disappearing. Art and music have become things of the past in our schools. Hundreds of school aides are on the unemployment line.

Arafat poisoned to death: Medical journal
- Uploaded by antidoteman on Oct 13, 2013
- Views: 112
A report by one of the world's leading medical journals has supported earlier findings that Yasser Arafat, the late leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization, was poisoned to death nearly a decade ago. According to British journal the Lancet, Arafat was poisoned with the radioactive element polonium 210. The journal published a peer review of last year's research by Swiss scientists, who have been researching the suspicious circumstances surrounding Arafat's death. The earlier work "found high levels of the highly radioactive element in blood, urine, and saliva stains" on Arafat's "clothes and toothbrush," according to a report on Al Jazeera. In July 2012, experts at Lausanne University, Switzerland, said they had evidence Arafat might have been poisoned with polonium. The investigation into Arafat's mysterious death led to the exhumation of his body in November 2012 for further testing. The decision to exhume Arafat's body was made after French prosecutors opened a murder probe into his death in August 2012 following the discovery of high levels of polonium on his personal belongings. Arafat died in 2004 at the age of 75 in a Paris military hospital. The analysis at the time was that he had a rare blood disorder.

CRDF Global and its partners have launched the Armenia Virtual Science Library (AVSL), an efficient Internet portal that provides a convenient, single point of access for research articles written by scientists in Armenia and around the world. The launch was held on Nov. 29, 2011 at the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia and was attended by U.S. Ambassador to Armenia John Heffern. After the event, 30 librarians participated in the first set of training-of-trainers workshops. An extensive national workshop series is planned in 2012 to assure that users and librarians throughout the country derive full benefit from the system.
The AVSL is the result of a U.S.-Armenian partnership involving the U.S. Department of State, CRDF Global, Armenia's Ministry of Education and Science, the State Science Committee, and the National Academy of Sciences Fundamental Scientific Library. The AVSL is available from more than 80 universities and research institutions throughout Armenia, and provides a comprehensive means for faculty, students, researchers, laboratory technicians, and technology innovators to explore cutting-edge scientific knowledge.
The Armenia VSL makes more than 10 million documents available to Armenia's research community from a variety of sources, including Springer Journals and E-books, the Directory of Open-Access Journals, the Fundamental Scientific Library of the Academy of Sciences, ArXiv.org, CalTech University, CiteSeer, Cogprints, Eprints, HighWire Press, Lund University and Ghent University. It will also provide search and download of articles from such collections as JSTOR, OARE, AGORA, HINARI, eIFL, and EBSCO for institutions that hold subscriptions to those journal sets. In addition, Thomson-Reuters will make its Web of Science database nationally available for a three-month trial period beginning in March 2012. The AVSL system can accommodate the addition of new journal subscriptions over time as the needs and interests of Armenia's research community evolve.

I agree. And considering the importance of the prophets and their relationship with Sisko, they really didn't focus on it very much early on in DS9 which seems strange since it was a major part of the pilot.

A wolf crossing sign that Nancy Warren of Ewen, Michigan and the Great Lakes Regional Director for WolfWatcher put up on her property. She and her husband have seen many wolves over the years. Warren is against the wolf hunt.
A third wolf petition was unanimously approved by the state Board of Canvassers today and is headed to the state Legislature.
Supporters of the wolf hunt needed to collect 258,088 valid signatures to qualify for the ballot. The Citizens for Professional Wildlife Management turned in 375,475 signatures and the Secretary of State found that 297,051 of those signatures were valid.
The Legislature has 40 days to either pass the initiative - which was spearheaded by a group supportive of the hunting of gray wolves in the Upper Peninsula - come up with a competing proposal, reject it, or do ...


text: Arsenic Found in Hundreds of Beer Samples But experts say not to worry By Matt Cantor, Newser User Posted Apr 9, 2013 12:59 PM CDT STORY COMMENTS (19) (Newser) – The filtering process may make your beer look nice and clear—but it may also be adding traces of arsenic to your booze. Researchers found arsenic in hundreds of samples of the stuff; some had more than 25 parts per billion, more than twice the US standard for water, NPR notes. Still, experts aren't exactly flipping out. "We already knew that," says one. "The levels shouldn't be alarming, because it's the kind of thing you see in dust or air." It may just be more precise testing that's revealing the arsenic, he adds. Beer and wine are often filtered using a mined substance called diatomaceous earth, a powder that comes from the tiny algae fossils and could be the arsenic culprit. "People in general will make positive quality associations with clearer beverages," says a professor. Wine makers, however, have been using diatomaceous earth less because of its silica, which can be harmful to breathe, notes a vintner. German researchers discovered traces of arsenic in a variety of beer samples.

Need to find ways to speed voting line
My wife and I went to Dayton Methodist Church to vote between 8:30 and 9 a.m. There was a short line when we got there, but it grew considerably before we left. They had 10 voting machines but only two poll workers. Only about half or less of the voting machines were in use because the poll workers could not process voters fast enough to keep the 10 machines busy. One voter had to fill out a provisional ballot. That left only one poll worker to process voters and to answer question by voters at the machines. The poll workers only had one table, and it was full so there was no room on the table for the provisional ballot voter to fill in the requested information. This created an additional bottleneck. I find this situation unacceptable. There should be enough poll workers to keep the voting machines busy.
The county went to vote centers and early voting to make voting easier in today's hectic lifestyle. Waiting one hour or longer to vote is way too long. I am sure I am not the only one that can't stand for an hour. This situation needs to be analyzed, and something done by the next election to speed things up.

Where were the state volleyball results?
Did anyone know that this past Saturday was the state finals for high school girls volleyball? Did anyone see, at least, the schools that were playing? Better yet, did anyone see in the J&C Sunday paper which schools won? The paper felt is was necessary to use three pages to talk about how bad the Purdue football team is playing. Just a small mention on the scoreboard page would have worked.

Thanks Konical. I bet you're right!; that's like keeping Delta 3200 for 20 years!
Now, I haven't heard anyone's thoughts on the 35mm film that's not nearly as expired as the Verichrome, and really that's what I'm most interested in getting right.
Do you think that going with the published times (above) + 40% development would be a safe bet?
And, let's say I wanted to switch to dilution A and a lower temperature. Is there an easy conversion I can do? Like, "dilution A, minus 3°C and you can use the same time as dilution B".
Or is changing temperature pointless, same as changing dilution? Or how about keeping dilution B and decreasing the temperature while increasing the time?
Any advantages, any logic behind this? These are the thoughts I'm grappling with at the moment.....

FORT BLISS — Bloody Sunday, which was one of the most violent events of the Civil Rights Movement, was a pivotal day that changed U.S. history, said Joanne Bland, a civil rights activist who spoke Tuesday at Fort Bliss.
On March, 7, 1965, more than 600 peaceful protestors began a 50-mile march in Alabama from Selma to Montgomery to fight for voters rights. Only five miles in to their protest, they were met at the Edmund Pettus Bridge with teargas and were beaten by police officers. Much of it was captured by television cameras.
"This isn't just black history, this is American history," said Bland, who was about 11 years old when she witnessed the event of Bloody Sunday. "As we were marching, I heard gunshots. I thought I was dead. We couldn't run cause they came after us from both sides. Young, old, black, white, men, women. It didn't matter, they (police) were beating us all up for marching."
Bland was the guest speaker at the Fort Bliss and the 1st Armored Division's African American and Black History Month Observance Ceremony at the Centennial Banquet and Conference Center. About 130 people attended.
"All I remember is screaming. Everyone was screaming as they tried to escape," said Bland, who is the owner of Journey for the Souls, a touring agency that people to important sites of the Civic Rights Movement in Selma. "One of the last things I remember was horses coming at us and being hit by the police and kicked by the horses. I fell into my sister's lap and felt her tears, but when I looked up, they weren't tears but blood coming from my sister's head. My 14-year-old sister was beaten on that bridge."
The violence against the protesters that day was not enough to stop Bland and her sister. Two days later, they marched with Martin Luther King, Jr. back to the bridge were the beatings had taken place.
"My sister had to get 26 stitches to her head, but on March 9, 1965, I held that same sister's hand as we followed Dr. King across that bridge again," Bland said.
Along with Bland's speech, the Fort Bliss celebration included music and plays performed by soldiers about the civil rights movement. The songs performed included civil rights and African spiritual songs. The one-act plays included the story of Rosa Parks and the battle of activist against segregated restaurants and schools.
"When we put together an event like this, it always amazing me the great talent of the unit," said Col. Thomas Dorame, brigade commander for the 2nd Brigade Combat Team at Fort Bliss. "Here today, we are trying to bring to life the story of both the courage and the sacrifice this nation went through to become stronger."
As the civil rights movement forever changed the U.S., the battle for equal rights for all men and women is still being fought, Bland said.
"We are still living in challenging times," Bland said. "When will it stop? When will people see people as equals? Change is like a jigsaw puzzle and everyone is a piece and if a piece is missing, the picture is not complete. So we need to include every piece of the puzzle."

12 egg roll wrappers
- peanut or canola oil for frying
1 Mix the first 4 ingredients; set aside.
2 Put the gravy and cranberry sauce in small, separate saucepans; add red pepper flakes to the cranberry sauce. Add a little water to each pan and stir until thinned to dipping consistency. Heat on low, stirring occasionally and adding water as needed.
3 Heat oil in pot or deep fryer to 170 degrees.
4 Lay egg roll wrappers on the counter, one corner pointing toward you. Use a small brush or finger to moisten the edges with water. Put about 1/3 cup of the filling across the middle of each one, staying about ½ inch from each edge. Fold the 2 side points toward the middle; fold the corner closest to you up over the ingredients and roll up, keeping the wrapper tight and neat.
5 Fry 2 or 3 at a time, turning frequently until golden brown, 4 or 5 minutes. Place on draining/cooling rack. Serve with the dipping sauces.
Note: All the ingredients are supposed to be fully cooked leftovers. The egg rolls go well with turkey fried rice, another great way to use up Thanksgiving leftovers.
CROSS CUT BEEF RIBS Ken Jarosz
2-4 pounds cross cut beef ribs
1 small can pineapple juice
- fajita seasoning, beef or chicken, to taste
1 In a zipper-type bag, combine ribs and pineapple juice. Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but not more than 12 hours, turning bag periodically. The pineapple juice's acidity will tenderize the ribs, but the beef will turn to mush if left more than 12 hours.
2 Remove ribs from the marinade and sprinkle both sides with fajita seasoning of your choice.
3 Cook over grill or in pan on stove top for 3 minutes per side. Remove from heat and allow to rest 4-5 minutes.
4 Cut between bones and serve as hor d'oeuvres.
Note: The crosscut beef ribs come cut in ½-inch thick slices. It is suggested that the first time you cook these, you sprinkle only one strip with the fajita mixture to adjust the among of seasoning to your palate. These are absolutely devoured by teens and young adult males. This is a very inexpensive cut of meat. Different meat markets have different names for the cut.

DENVER (AP) - Republican Mitt Romney campaigns in Virginia Thursday, energized by a solid performance in last night's televised presidential debate.
There also are signs that the race is tightening in some of the battleground states where President Barack Obama has enjoyed the advantage.
Obama campaigns Thursday in Colorado and Wisconsin.
The next presidential debate is Oct. 16 at Hofstra University in Hempstead, N.Y.

Poor old Button, not only has he got a crap car but now has a number two who if prepared to race him. I don't know why he thinks he should be immune from this and in any case they were both very aggressive and perhaps if Button were like that more often he would get a few more points. It's all pretty irrelevant anyway because they were only fighting for a few points not for the lead and it looks as if it will be like that for the remainder of the season so he will have to put up with it as Mclaren don't do team orders.

In any event, it's time time to put the nose back to the grindstone and focus on markets, where things appear to have gotten very ugly, very quickly. Where to start? How about with yesterday's jaw-dropper, the horrific service sector ISM in the US. There was more than a faint whiff of sulphur from the very get-go, as the Institute of Supply Management released the figures early, citing probable "security breaches", i.e. leaks. When the subsequent release showed a multi-standard deviation miss, and indeed the second worst reading in the survey's decade-long history, the reason for the apparent leak became clear, as the data was clearly of a market-moving nature.
While the data was so bad as to be scarcely believable, move the market it did. While fixed income received something of a bid, particularly at the short end, the back of the curve is still well, well off its lows in yield. No, the real impact was felt in equities, where the warm and fuzzy, "kumbayah" feeling of the past couple of weeks was replaced by a down 3% day in the SPX, which conveniently (or not, depending on your position) broke through the recent uptrend, apparently confirming it as a correction.
How ugly was yesterday's price action? So ugly that even erstwhile intramarket "hedges", such as Macro Man's large cap/small cap trade, relocated to Texas. That position, which was doubled at the end of last month, has cost Macro Man $460k in less than a week. Ouch! As the chart below indicates, that spread (long OEX/short Russell 2000) has also gotten very ugly, very quickly. The deterioration in the spread probably speaks volumes about distress in the quant space, and it is beyond the capacity of mere mortals like Macro Man to determine precisely when the downdraft will end. He still believes in the funadamental rationale for the trade, and so will hold tight for the time being. However, price action below 0.87 on the ratio will force a rethink; Macro Man may take his losses on the cash position and look to implement a lower-risk option strategy instead.
There is some ugliness developing in currency markets as well. In the developed space, the euro has taken a bit of a dump after German G7 sherpas warned that the single currency should not bear the burden of adjustments in the foreign exchange market. It's sentiments like these that encourage Macro Man in his belief that Japan will find it politically tricky to intervene to weaken the yen this side of 100. A break of prior lows in EUR/JPY would confirm an impulsive five wave sequence, suggesting that the underlying trend is now bearish.
In the EM space, the South African rand has gotten absolutely mullahed over the last week or two, and USD/ZAR is now within hailing distance of the panic highs of 2006. As Macro Man has mused before, South Africa is one of the few "old skool" EM countries left, with a large current account deficit, high inflation and interest rates, and a corrupt political leadership to boot. Recent power cuts have done little to alter this image. Macro Man has contemplated shorting the rand for some time; it looks like he may have missed the boat.
If Macro Man's trigger pulling in the ZAR has left something to be desired, his efforts in the US curve have left the RSPCA and PETA on his trail, so badly has he screwed the pooch. He's basically watched the 2-10 curve steepen from 50 bps to 160 in a straight line and not been able to pull the trigger. Ay caramba! In fairness, it's not quite that bad; Macro Man has had a sort of cross-market ratioed curve trade on, paying the back end of the US and receiving twice the bpv in 2 year Europe. That position's actually done quite well.
But if one takes the view that the economic slowdown is indeed global, and will hit Europe with sufficient force that either growth or inflation slow materially, than an ECB easing would appear to be in the bag at some point in late Q2 or Q3. And when that happens, the European curve should steepen nicely. As the chart below illustrates, the European curve has lagged the US by a few quarters for the last decade or so; if that's the case this time around, then the steepening party could just be getting started.
Of course, it's probably foolhardy to pull the trigger now, especially with an ECB meeting and press conference tomorrow. Have Trichet and co. seen enough to make them take their foot off the monetary break and press the accelerator? Almost certainly not. So Macro Man will bid his time, especially as he already has a highly-correlated trade on the books.
And as he discovered with the large cap/small cap trade, adding fresh risk at inopportune moments can turn very ugly, very quickly.

To be honest, I don;t know if there's going to be a recession this year and quite frankly, I don't care. What I do care about is how the market reacts to its own worldview...and for the time being, the market is trading the recession view, and thus I am obliged to as well. In three months' time the world could look different.

macro man as an aussie married to a pom..i feel yr pain mate..move down here and enjoy the beach, wife will be happy but you will be up working 24 hrs a day (minor downside)...glad to see you can see the sense inthe eur steepener...trade du jour (if not of the year) is long shatz short us tens...wild n bumpy but check out the 8yr correlation graph and you will see it is well out of whack and worth some serious conditional zero cost action..enjoy the home office ..

You must have posted this earlier, but I don't see it. What is your Large Cap/Small Cap trade, and what is the rationale behind it?
Thanks for your great stuff! And I loved the bit yestreday about "centred."

Bruce, see here.
As for the spelling, I originally spelled it the American way, then caught myself and changed it- hence the comment. That's the weird thing about living here for so long (though clearly not long enough to obtain residency/passport!); I still spell things like "center" and "meter" the American way, whereas "labour" and "colour" look better the English way.
And don't get me started on Premiership duh-FENCE or NFL DEE-fence.
- February 6, 2008 at 1:04 PM
MM, I'm half Canadian myself, though raised mostly in the US, so I'm familiar with the spelling issues. Canadians sometimes pick and choose spellings, so you get interesting combinations like "Tire Centre" (as opposed to yank "Tire Center" or brit "Tyre Centre") sometimes. It makes life more colo(u)rful, albeit more labo(u)rious.
Thanks for the Lg/Sm cap reference!

anonymous, i'm not so sure about the long schatz/short us 10s trade.
whilst i don't have much of a view on schatz, i do think the ECB are going to be very reluctant to start cutting, so getting long 2yrs miles through ECB base rates doesn't seem a no-brainer to me.
whereas look at the US...absolute disaster over there, and only going to get worse. it seems to me the curve steepener has been over-played, just cos its the "obvious" trade to do going into a recession. bigger picture, you can get 3.60% on the 10yr, with the Fed at 3%, definitely going lower, and a massive risk of an extended recession/depression and personally i think almost guaranteed deflation...and even if we don't get deflation, i betcha the market will start talking about it soon. so being long 10y US at 3.60% looks like the no-brainer trade to me (i had it on the other week, took it off at 3.56% and just about to put it back on, fyi).
- February 6, 2008 at 3:30 PM
macro man,
great blog! i love reading your posts on the markets. out of curiosity, do you trade for a hedge fund, ibank or your personal account?
- February 6, 2008 at 4:10 PM
so being long 10y US at 3.60% looks like the no-brainer trade to me
Hi 2and20,
I have a question regarding the "no-brainer"-ness of a 10Y treasury trade. To start off I'm no pro and I'm going to assume 10Y note futures are interchangeable with the 10Y trades you're talking about. If thats all crap then never mind.
Looking at the FF and 10 year note futures charts on CBOT shows me in 2001 after the Fed eased aggressively within a range similar to now (4% down to 2.5% in second half 2001), the 10 year note tanked for the first half of 2002 (from 112 down to 105) before rallying eventually up to 118 or so.
The last time the 10Y future was trading at current levels (117ish), the Fed had already eased down to 1%, suggesting all other things being equal that maybe the 10Y is already quite a bit ahead of the FF at least compared to last time.
I wasn't paying attention to this stuff back in 2001-2003 and don't know the background, but just by looking at the charts, this would suggest maybe upside is limited and there's lots of potential for downside in the short run.
Is this overly simplified? Were inflationary/deflationary pressures entirely different at that time?
- February 6, 2008 at 5:15 PM

Curious, for the past several years I have run a successful absolute rturn strategy on an unlevered but relatively substantial amount of money. I started this blog a year and a half ago a) to aid me in organizing my thoughts, so as to improve my eral-life investment performance, and b) to demonstrate to myself (and others) that the skills required to manage a "real money" portfolio can translate into running a leveraged, hedge fund sytle portfolio.
- February 6, 2008 at 5:30 PM
- 2and20 said...
yes 10y futures and bonds can be considered interchangeable for all intents and purposes (i use the futures usually).
i think the difference between now and 2001/2002 is that the market thought the Fed was ahead of the curve, and that the recession would be relatively short. so low rates were inflationary, hence the initial tanking in early 2002. it wasn't until after that that the market then decided that it was maybe worse than normal, and there was a lot of deflation talk, hence the huge rally (i think the 10y yield hit 3.07% or something close to that).
today, i think the conditions are a whole lot worse, and a systemic crisis seems more likely, as does a huge unwind of leverage, falling asset prices, and a deeper and longer recession. so my call is that the Fed has to lower rates much further, but they could be there to stay for a substantial period of time. at that the point, you'll get the inevitable comparisons to japan, and then 10y yields at 3% will practically look like a bargain.
anyway, that's my thoughts. in "normal" circumstances, yes, low Fed rates would mean I wouldn't want to be in the long-end, but i think it's "different this time".
- February 6, 2008 at 5:54 PM
Hey MM,
When you can spare a moment, can you please on "cross-market ratioed curve trade on, paying the back end of the US and receiving twice the bpv in 2 year Europe." tks
- February 6, 2008 at 6:48 PM
I think you gentlemen are underestimating inflation. Last week Panera Bread Company raised coffee to go by 50%, small rolls by 58% and other small ticket items by similar amounts. The manager told me that another set of price increase were sent to the restaurant to take effect in another month or so. They are assuming prices are inelastic for these small ticket items. Place your bets gentlemen.
- February 6, 2008 at 10:25 PM
You may be misunderestimating the price of banking risk, too. Flies in the borscht? Enter the Brothers Karamazov? From the Moscow Times it seems some Russkies have appeared in the SocGen affair: 2 Russians Seen in SocGen Fraud Case
There's now enough liquidity, but still the drip drip drip of info out of banks is keeping markets unsettled.

marc, i hear you and that is one thing that bothers me...there does seem to be pricing power in a few lower priced industries. maybe it's just the trickle down effect from a dying consumer, that can still afford stuff that's only a few bucks, so maybe this pricing power disappears soon. not sure.
druckenmiller....at least back up your statement with some rationale.

The market never thought the Fed was ahead of the curve in the period you speak of , that's way off base

How to Cure Inflammation of Eyes
Remedial measures to be taken against inflammation of eyes.
It is common sight that most of us will have swollen eyes or in other words eyes get swollen for innumerable reasons. For some, their eyes will have been swollen as soon as they rise form their beds. Secondly, some others get the swollen eyes after swimming. Age is no bar to this disease. There is no cause for panic. One need not spend sleepless nights just because one's eyes have swollen so suddenly. There are a number of remedial measures to check this disease. There may be some who have not suffered form this complaint. If u observes a person affected by fatigue, you may notice a sudden change on his face i.e. countenance, that person may have swollen eyes, a sort of dark circles have become red. As you go on observing his face and eyes, several questions arise in your mind about the eye care. Let us carefully scan through the problems pertaining to eyes. Eyes, turning red and swollen cannot be dubbed as something 'hereditary diseases'. On the other hand, it is hardly connected with one's criminal or an out law background. Going is not at all the exact reason for these complaints. In spite of all these likely hoods, inflammation of eyes is imminent. It occurs to those who go to night clubs for fun or those who inevitably work in night shift and other conditions. As time it is due to hereditary or family history. It also occurs due to certain technical problems and allergic complaints. Through out ones life the eyes are subjected or exposed to a variety of disorders. The eyes begin to itch add burn excessively. Sticky secretions' force the eye lashes to get glued together. Temporarily water or tear get deposited. The skin may become too soft or too stiff and hard. Improper blood circulation generally when one is asleep or lack of gravitations is some of the causes. In the case of some individuals using pillow may also obstruct free circulation of blood hence the eyes inflammation. The swelling or inflammation gradually diminishes.
- Excessive sleep which makes tears well up around the eyes.
- Sleeplessness or insomnia.
- When kidneys fail to function normally.
- Lack of physical activities and exercises.
- The individuals may be suffering from sinusitis.
- During pregnancy imbalances' may have caused due to certain medicines.
- Stress physical strain tension restlessness etc.
- Constipation and concentration of toxic sub stances I the body.
- Due to pollution in air water and food.
- Allergic problems.
- Endless weeping crying sobbing etc when one is severely affected by grief or tragic incidents.

My boyfriend gets mad if I don't answer the phone, when I call back he won't pick up. Its like my punishment for not answering. Well its ok if he doesn't because there is an explanation for it. My explanations aren't good enough. What up with that?
He gets mad if I don't answer the phone?
What Guys Said 2
This behaviour seems downright imature, you deserve respect as a person in your own right, not to be treated as a subject for punishment. You say he is your boyfriend at the moment, well if this is the way you are treated at this stage how would you be treated if it were a stage closer? Would the punishment be silent periods if you behaved out of the profile he sets for you?
Could the punishment make a more serious change if you were living together? I don't think I need elaborate ...
The childish way he behaves speaks volumes to me and the word insecurity occurs to me as well as another answerer - I feel there is one thing to do, move on. From what you reveal to us I think you deserve better and he does not deserve you at all.
It's a control thing - jedi mind trick he is trying to play on you. Yes, childish to say the least. Don't buy into it. The best thing you should do is just act normally like you are returning his call. If he doesn't call back, oh well. If he gets mad that you didn't pick up, just say you were busy and that he should leave a message and you will get back to him. Tell him to grow up.

More students have been charged with alcohol-related offenses this year at Iowa State University than at the University of Iowa, crime data released by the Iowa Board of Regents show.
The reverse was true in 2011, the first full year in which the universities tracked incidents related to drinking.
The switch is driven by opposing trends at Iowa's two largest public universities. Through September of this year, ISU student alcohol charges increased 27 percent over the same time period last year, data show. At the U of I, that number dropped 25 percent. The University of Northern Iowa reported ...

HOLLAND, Mich. (WZZM) -- The family of former Fennville star Wes Leonard received a special tribute today from a company hoping to celebrate his life.
Leonard died in March after suffering cardiac arrest on the basketball court. Leonard was a star on the basketball court and football field for Fennville High School, but his sports career started at a much younger age.
THE RUSH, a company which specializes in putting together sports highlights, went through tons of video from Leonard's athletic events and created a digital archive of Leonard's athletic achievements, from childhood to high school.
"We worked with the athletic director at Fenville High School, he sent us hours of DVDs of Wes's games," said RUSH Spokesperson Mike Brinich. "We went back and scored those in real time as if we were doing a real game. We went through many hours of tape and created over 100 highlights of Wes's athletic accomplishments."
Leonard's parents will have access to a private webpage so they can relive those special moments, forever.
The company also made a donation of $5,000 to the Wes Leonard Heart Team Fund.
Since leonard's death, his parents have been fighting to introduce legislation and raise awareness for the prevention of sudden cardiac arrest.
Jocelyn Leonard: "A couple of parents have called and asked 'why did your son make ESPN and mine didn't? I said, I don't know, I don't know," said Wes's mother, Jocelyn Leonard.
"I wish I wasn't part of this club. But, when they call you and ask you that, then how do you not stand up for them? You have to stand up for them."
