Words at Play : Top 10 Particular Kinds of Lovers

About the Word:
Like bibliophile ("book lover"), cinephile was borrowed directly from French into English.
What's the difference between a cinephile and a "movie lover"? The distinction is vague, but cinephile with its classical tone suggests a scholarly interest.

text: Just wanted to throw my hat into this section of the forum. I had read this book awhile ago, and its one of the best science books ive ever read, also it is one of the best introductions to Godel. Its very fasinating, it goes into the philosophy of time and it talks about Einsteins and Godels relationship, something some books just touch on but dont go into to much depth. A World Without Time: The Forgotten Legacy of Godel and Einstein Just wanted to also say that I thought the popular science book A Different Universe: Reinventing Physics from the Bottom Down was horrible Anyone else read these two?

Remember Me
Steve Kimock Crazy Engine :: 06.16.09 :: Old Rock House :: St. Louis, MO
As the sparse crowd gathered for the first set and the band took the stage, Kimock chuckled to the crowd and made an interesting remark: "We're gonna go ahead and get started, even though there's only nine people here... but that's not gonna change what we do up here one bit." His words certainly rang true. Despite an extremely small crowd for the first two sets - the place was hopping by the third and final set - the band played as though they were headlining The Fillmore. The audience was truly made to feel welcome and special.
Enough about Kimock, time to rave about the rest of the band, who easily kept up with the wild haired guitar wizard, sending their own barrages of notes to both accompany and challenge his own fierce musical statements. Steve's son, John Morgan Kimock, sat behind the drum kit, and despite being only 20 years old he is as accomplished on the skins as many men twice his age. He was an absolute beast and a joy to watch, a promising young musician that we can expect to see great things from. With a much louder, more rocking sound than the NorVa downloads let on, his rhythmic assistance was sharp and youthful - at times aggressive and propulsive, lighting a fire behind the older veterans - and at other times very laid back, ushering in musical change with shimmering cymbals and tasty fills. It was amusing to watch Steve grin with fatherly pride as he joined the audience in watching John's impressive drum solo.
Mathis was perhaps the biggest surprise of the night. His talent is undeniable, and all the hype I'd heard proved to be true. With a background in highly improvisational jazz as a founding member of Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, one could not help but suspect that Mathis was a bit more suited to Kimock's adventurous musical spirit than Wallin. Armed with only a four string Fender - in a scene with many other bass players utilizing the fancier end of the spectrum with larger five or six string basses - he absolutely tore it up! Quite frankly, his talent makes it difficult to fully express in words, other than saying his playing was spot-on and exceeded all expectations. In a perfect world, he could play in Tea Leaf Green AND Crazy Engine full time (and JFJO for that matter), but alas, that's not the world we live in. It speaks to the quality of his musicianship - and of the musicians, for that matter - that he could join the band last minute and play as though he'd been with them for years (although he did tour with Kimock briefly in 2006).
The evening brought with it some Kimock favorites including the sassy "You're the One," the free-flowing "It's Up to You" and a dreamy cover of "Stella Blue." The crowd may not have recognized every song by name, but that was no matter. The only thing of consequence was witnessing the unique journey between two musical spectrums that the band traversed. At one end, brassy, funky R&B, and at the other end, a radiant blend of jazz, world music and rock, all awash in shimmering drums, sparkling keys, earthy bass and Kimock's sharp, intelligent phrasing. Those with the opportunity to see this most recent outfit should do so soon. With a rotating lineup, no one show will likely be the same.

Young woman attacked in Southsea
A 20-year-old woman was attacked while on a night out in Southsea.
The young woman and her friend were walking back to their car on Thursday, August 15 at 2.30am when the assault happened.
She was punched in the back of the head and then kicked in the stomach while on the ground in the Kings Street and Gloucester View area.
The woman received cuts and bruises to her head and was taken to hospital.
£35 cash, a red purse and bank cards were stolen from her in the attack.
Two white men, one of them bare-chested, are being treated as suspects.
This was a cowardly unprovoked attack on a defenceless woman. We believe someone will know the attackers, and may have seen them or heard about this assault."

He tried several door handles before gaining entry to at least three flats.

The covers of two displays inside the museum were unscrewed, and the medals were stolen. An alarm alerted staff that the theft was taking place. Their whereabouts remain unknown.
Andrew Whitmarsh, D-Day Museum Development Officer said: "These medals are an important part of the D-Day Museum's displays, and we use them to help tell the story of wartime events. They are part of the history of the wartime air raids on Portsmouth and the D-Day landings respectively."
A 37-year-old man from Portsmouth was arrested on suspicion of theft and bailed until May 22, 2013 pending further enquiries.

October surprise in election year-seems well planned!
It seems like Obama's policies resulted in close to 5M new jobs. Not bad considering that Republicans kept saying NO to everything
Well you look under that, under "Communist" Obama, private payrolls are increasing and government payrolls are dropping....I guess I didn't know that is how Communism works.
Hey WSJ, you want a nice lie?
We found 400,000 jobs out of nowhere! Dont ask us to prove this beyond us desperately trying to make Obama look goo. Just shut up and print it!
The story does not mention, but certainly should, whether it has been common in the past for the DOL to release "preliminary revised estimates" of jobs added well in advance of the years closure. Anybody want to put any money on the following proposition: it hasn't happened before. The story of course makes it sound like such revisions are mundane and regular occurrances-which I'm sure is DOL's tag line.
What a tale for Obama reelection and phony numbers to spruce up his administration. I suspect tomorrow, the Unemployement rate will NOW BE 5.1% , All based on numbers Imagined in corner at the White House. Maybe this is the same bunch that blamed the embassy kilings on a film that no one saw. The Public are jerks and believe anything out the mouths of this group
Fuzzy accounting....
Do all you naysayers truly believe that Obama has so much power that he can control what all government departments do and say?
"good" is REALLY "bad"
"white" is REALLY "black"
"up" is REALLY "down"
"honesty" is REALLY "over-rated"
So wheres the weapons of mass destruction?
Unless you have better data to show than the BLS, shut it.
Kind of like finding a box of hither to uncounted ballots just as counting draws to a close.
Well, we have the Doctor over at The Fed to thank! Support The Fed's policies!
Pam...If you believe teh white house doesn't have that power you are phenomenally naive.
I find it just a tad convenient that the "revision" came out at the time it did. And to answer Pam, similarly to bikAA, "uh, yeah." Look at the people who have ended up on his "enemies list." Well documented in the Op Ed pages of the WSJ and elsewhere, particularly as it applies to donors so if the Administration can go after "outsiders," do you think they have less control on "insiders?" Richard Nixon is envious of the Obama Administration's enemies list!
Liars figure.
That is simply so typical and expected from the administration- oops we missed 400K employees. just a tad off, yeah OK
The WSJ should continue to mention that the US is adding about 200,000 to its population every month. When taken against the labor participation rate in the low 60 percent, which has been shrinking, that means we need to add around 125,000 jobs per month to break even with population growth.
If we go back over a couple years and average things out, I am not so sure we are adding that many new jobs over what is accounted for in population growth, which is even more pitiful when considering how many were lost in the recession.
BALONEY! Every month the jobs numbers for previous months is adjusted downward. And now, 6 weeks before the election... they suddenly find 400,000 new jobs? FOUL!
Stop blaming BO . He's digging the country fr a big hole which was left fr the Lincoln administration. I say give him 8 more yrs. put Al Sharpton as Secretary of state and Jersy Jackson Ambassador to the Middle East.
Did they find these jobs in the same trunk with the uncounted votes for Al Franken? How come there are never undiscovered pluses for any Republican? Ever.
Hmmm coincidentally the department controlled by the current administration has the number revised? I would like to see the data to see if this wasn't done at the behest of the administration. It seems the administration cleared funds in battle ground states in the last year to help create new jobs. Politics has everything to do with this reporting.
"When the preliminary revisions become final early next year, the official data should show that 386,000 more Americans were working in March than previously believed. The private sector did even better, adding 453,000 jobs versus previous estimates."
No political motivation with this "early release" (always subject to more revisions)....
Jack potts, that's funny right there.
So I work in a science field and can say that these numbers are calculated by a number of sources, some of which aren't available until later. Data reporting isn't as simple as "here's the final result". Results are fine-tuned as more information is collected. Anyone thinking that this is a huge conspiracy is probably the kind of person who will believe anything anyway. That being said, I'm sure there may be some truth to the idea that the results were published with a political timing in mind, but either party in control would likely take advantage of any and all subtle opportunities to get the edge in an election year.
Anyone that has ever PAID a payroll (been an employer) knows that the monthly numbers are just rough estimates. These new numbers are far more accurate so get over it you NEOCONS.
Really? understands what goes into collecting and preparing the date that is kept as official government figures. And yes, releasing the numbers now is probably political. So??????????
Dear Fred
Remember the extra jobs found for Scott Walker in the Wisconsin recall election? So...stop whining.
The cynicism here is off the charts. The knowledge, not so much.
All you righties had better put your aluminum foil hats back on, I think the radio waves are affecting your thought process. Not that it needs any help
I totally agree with Randy. The companies are hiring but who are they hiring......The government is not limiting the visas and the corporates are bringing in more and more from India, Philipines, China etc. The locals are still jobless. Me, my neighbour and many more that I know are still jobless as of today. I have Masters and constantly apply for jobs but never called for any interview simply because they have a "dedicated candidate" from India probably. I have Masters etc. So, what are we talking abt.
"If the preliminary figures hold, they would suggest that more Americans are now working than when President Obama took office." The writer of this article is trying SO hard to make Obama look good on the economy. This article is admitting that ever since Obama took office, there has been less people working, and just now, maybe by the hair of his chinny chin chin, if the numbers hold and we shut our eyes really really tight and hope with all our might, there might be a few more people working now than when he took office. And this, they say, is GOOD political news for Obama???
I see that for the Wall Street republicans had difficulties assuming responsibility from the mess that Bush left and you contributed with your derivatives casino. Especially my friends att Wall Street that instead of being unemployed were rescued by bailouts (food stamps for bussiness) from a minority president that raise from the bottom of
You are pathetic and entitlked reactionary group. Now you are riding a market that will be making lots of money and you still complain. And Sorry, your kid's tution in New York kids school was not crisis adjusted
Yes and the best way to show the bail out of the auto industries was worth while is to keep higher gas prices and force the American people to buy the new vehicles, so they can report the bail out was worth the effort. Illinois gas is 3.92 per gallon and Texas is 3.25. Check last years figures on fuel and you will see what cost vary. Some people just do not see how the world turns. It;s like not wanting to buy something and because you donot you have to pay for it. Well I am selling all my goods and living on welfare.
You maggots can't be this dumb, or can you? Both parties and the federal reserve combined are not worth a pile of snail snot. All are equally worthless. It's the blame game dummies, and you lamebrains fall for it. You twerps have had you head up your a--es so long you believe in s--t when it's given to you. Quit watching "Dancing With the Stars" and the "Kartrashians" and you may escape your mentally challenged brain stupor.
Alright people, as the article said these types of revisions are NORMAL and the revision wasn't spectacularly large. This, as all revisions, will be buried and carry zero political weight. The recovery is still the slowest since the Great Depression. The national debt is still over $16,000,000,000,000 and the unemployment rate is still above 8%. We've still had three straight annual deficits above $1,000,000,000,000. BO has been a failure as a president.
Sergeant Ermey seems to be the only one that gets it. It scares me that you all can vote.
Darn it!
Stop it! This is hard!
You min numbed idiots believe government numbers. Give me a f--k--g break.
"The WSJ should continue to mention that the US is adding about 200,000 to its population every month."
Randy, the US has been adding to its population since its inception, but that doesn't change the fact that more jobs were added under the Obama administration than under the Bush administration.
LOL, move over old people your in the way.
"uh...since Obama's executive order to defer illegal immigrants, we can now count them in our statistics...yeah that's it.."
Anybody who believes either party is akin to a mental hospital permanent resident like the village idiot and military service liar WSW.
Sergeant Ermey has it exactly right. What a bunch of dunderheads on here. Wake up lemmings.
Both parties suck big time!
Joe Smith is crying about the price of gas and how people don't see how the world turns.
Americans are so self-centric that they have no clue how the rest of the world turns - gasoline has been higher than that in Europe for years and years. Why do Americans think they should just be entitled to cheap gas?
All over Europe gas is almost $8 a gallon right now $10 a gallon in Norway. Even Turkey is about $8 or $9 per gallon. Stop whining and start conserving. The Constitution didn't guarantee you CHEAP everything, including gas.
400K new jobs? Wow, that Obama sure is doing a terrible job.
Sarge got it right.
The first half of this blog is a bunch of party robots that have no clue at all.
"The economy doesn't suck as bad as we thought" is not really a compelling campaign pitch.
You party clones need to go play on the 405.
It's called Obama magic. You want votes? Print up some checks and send them out to potential voters. How about some free cell phones? You want to show job improvement? Who's to argue. It's your administration. Just tell them to change the way they calculate the results so it will look better. Hey, anything's possible with Obama magic.

Alex M...you're an idiot. Bush added 10,000,000 new jobs after the 2001 recession. There are FEWER people working today than were working during the Bush years. The labor participation rate is the lowest it's been since 1981...that's 31 years moron.
Get your facts straight or stay off the boards.
How many of these jobs were minimum wage? My guess is 99% -- and I still don't believe a word coming out of this government.
What exactly are Obama's policies, other than blaming Republicans?
He really has to be the single most ineffective President we have ever had.
It is astounding he has 50-50 chance of getting re-elected.
Surely the electorate has never been more ignorant. Very sad.
Does anyone believe their reports? I don't
News Corp's U.S. holdings include Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and Twentieth Century Fox.[11]
Don't go popping the champagne just yet. Obama is doing a terrible job. The 400,000 jobs are spread out over the entire year. Even if there were 800,000 new jobs, this recovery in terms of GDP growth and job growth is historically terrible!
Obama and the Dems like to spin the facts by saying "We went from losing 800,000 jobs a month to 30+ months of job growth..." That was the main claim at the DNC. In truth though, even if there was just a single new job created in a month, Obama and his team would continue to claim "job growth". This recovery is barely alive at this point with GDP growth revised DOWNWARD even though the recession has technically been over for 2 years.
Obama is horrible and it's time for Romney to show all you dopey Libs what a real recovery is supposed to look like!
Did Solyndra and all the green companies that got billions from taxpayers rehired after they laid off? They must have included the jobs created in China by Bammy too.
What a f'n joke this is.
This is, without a doubt, the sickest, most disgraceful election any country has ever ran. And we have Obama, "the Amateur" to thank for that. He's been in the Whitehouse for almost four years and he still doesn't have a clue to what's going on. All he know how to do is attack every word Romney says with ridiculous lies and misleading statements. He has no acheivements, he has no record to run on, he has no positive results for FOUR YEARS IN OFFICE. Bush makes Obama look foolish.
Tell me everyone, who is being fooled into thinking we are in a recovery with this manipulated stock market?
I will send the results to the Federal Reserve.
You party supporting hacks are just shuffling deck chairs on the titanic!
Of course the White House is glowing over this non-issue. They need something to cheer about since the improving economy grew at a whopping 1.3% in the second quarter. And durable goods orders had their largest decline since the month of Obama's inauguration. But the heavily skewed polls will probably show Obama up by 15 points tomorrow. Oh well, it will make for good story telling after he goes down like Carter did to Reagan in November.
Why would ANYBODY give this bald statistical manipulation any credence whatever?
Absolutely shameless BS...
Doesn't anyone follow the new unemployment claim numbers of the BLS every Thursday? The moving four week average is 374,00 this week; do the math: That is 1,496,000 folks who have lost their employment over the past four weeks.
So where,pray tell are those 4.6 million jobs that Obamanation keeps claiming he created. It smells like bovine excrement to me
Would you like to redo that math: "The moving four week average is 374,00 this week; do the math: That is 1,496,000 folks who have lost their employment over the past four weeks."
Here is the first part of the October Suprise. Just in time for the election. The bureaucrats have pulled out some numbers that will help the election go to their man. This stuff has been going on since, well since the 1960s.
Spain and Greece are glimpse of what the US will be going through shortly no matter who is elected. You party weirdos need to get the hell out of the way.
Not very surprising that this has come out now. Anything to get this adminsitration elected!
Pretty good chance it is too late....if Obummer or Ruiney are elected, it is definately to late and time to seek refuge in another country. The parties are hopeless for any soltions at all. Corruption reins.
Yawnnn...make us when the final bogus revisions are unveiled. What good are preliminary bogus revisions?
I;ll hang with the Sarge.n A pox on both parties.
News media is not even covering the very violent riots going on in Greece caused by central banks and politicians same as here. Spain is in as much financial trouble as Greece and yet the rigged market here goes up while foreclosures keep rising. It is all insane! Crooks abound in both parties.
May both parties destroy themselves.
My main homeboy Sergeant Ermey laid it down with his usual lilting verbage. Semper Fi man. Don't believe anything either party tells you unless you like being debt slaves. Audit and abolish the criminal foreign owned NWO globalist FED yesterday and you'll see a big improvement otherwise NADA!
Obama sucks, Romney sucks, I can't trust the government, there is a huge governmental conspiracy, it's all BOs fault, Faux News, the liberal media, dinosaurs didn't happen.......did I miss anything. You people suck. Either you are all trollers or just that dumb. Why am I reading this? Why am I writing this? OMG, I'm just as stupid! What is wrong with us. Think, People!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please Mr. Krueger, can you also comment on the revised GDP for the second quarter going down to 1.3% from 1.7%

"The Federal Reserve bank buys government bonds without one penny..." — Congressman

"We have, in this country, one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board.

It has done this through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it". — Congressman Louis T. McFadden in 1932 (Rep. Pa)

"The Federal Reserve system pays the U.S. Treasury 020.60 per thousand notes –a little over
2 cents each– without regard to the face value of the note. Federal Reserve Notes, incidentally, are the only type of currency now produced for circulation. They are printed exclusively by the
Treasury's Bureau of Engraving and Printing, and the $20.60 per thousand price reflects the Bureau's full cost of production. Federal Reserve Notes are printed in 01, 02, 05, 10, 20, 50, and 100 dollar denominations only; notes of 500, 1000, 5000, and 10,000 denominations were last printed in 1945." —Donald J.

"A great industrial nation is controlled by it's system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the world–no longer a government of free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of small groups of dominant men." — President Woodrow Wilson
Founding Father's Quotes on Banking (Maybe some repeats from "Founding Father's Quotes" / Information tends to converge)
Thomas Jefferson
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.
Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The
issuing power (of money) should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to
whom it properly belongs." — Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President.
Andrew Jackson
"If Congress has the right [it doesn't] to issue paper money [currency], it was given to them to be used by…[the government] and not to be delegated to individuals or corporations" — President Andrew Jackson, Vetoed Bank Bill of 1836
James Madison
"History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and it's issuance." — James Madison
Misc. Sources
"Banks lend by creating credit. They create the means of payment out of nothing" — Ralph M.
Hawtrey, Secretary of the British Treasury
"To expose a 15 Trillion dollar rip-off of the American people by the stockholders of the 1000
largest corporations over the last 100 years will be a tall order of business." — Buckminster Fuller
"Every Congressman, every Senator knows precisely what causes inflation…but can't, [won't]
support the drastic reforms to stop it [repeal of the Federal Reserve Act] because it could cost him his job." — Robert A. Heinlein, Expanded Universe
"It is well that the people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." — Henry Ford
"[Every circulating FRN] represents a one dollar debt to the Federal Reserve system." — Money
Facts, House Banking and Currency Committee
"…the increase in the assets of the Federal Reserve banks from 143 million dollars in 1913 to
45 billion dollars in 1949 went directly to the private stockholders of the [federal reserve] banks." — Eustace Mullins
"As soon as Mr. Roosevelt took office, the Federal Reserve began to buy government securities
at the rate of ten million dollars a week for 10 weeks, and created one hundred million dollars in new [checkbook] currency, which alleviated the critical famine of money and credit, and the factories
started hiring people again." — Eustace Mullins
3:57 intensive rehab can work. Good luck
Funny how many people question these numbers and say they're made up by the Obama administration. Yet when the unemployment numbers stay above 8% these same people are the first ones to point it out as a failure of Obama's policies to reduce joblessness. Either you believe the BLS's numbers or you don't. You don't get to pick and chose your "facts". Republican core beliefs: Rule #1 Ideology comes first. Rule#2 Facts only matter if they support Rule#1.
U must be kidding. Revisions after revision and now they find 400k jobs they lost in the revisions. LMFAO
A perfect opportunity to get these lazy asses off of welfare, UI and food stamps as well as getting all of these old farts who refuse to invest in the Market and are seeking higher interest for their savings into mindless jobs that pay minimum.
Support The Fed.
Go to the Bureau of Labor Statistics website. The March 2011 final revision was released in January 2012. This is clear politics on behalf of the Administration. They are hoping that the majority of Americans will be excited by 400,000 and not do the simple math required to realize that this is a very small segment of the unemployed. That is, if the 400,000 is an accurate number when the real report is released.
A perfact opportunity to get these lazy clashes off of warfare, UI and food camps as well as getting all of these old tarts who refuse to harvest an the arket and are sleeking slighter interest for their savings into mindlass mobs that pay manim

WSW the troll is here again.
Bens own fed heads don't even support the fed.
Trillions in stimulus and 4 years of qe gets us 1.3 GDP,8% un for nearly 4 years,and the lowest labor participation rate in history.
The Bls can spin the numbers all they want.this prez is an economic disgrace and.needs qe keep him afloat.
It is goofy and absurd to believe that this upward revision is an attempt by the administration to artificially pump up the job numbers. Labor Department data is under constant revision; oftentimes it is revised downwards, but this is certainly not the first time it's ever been revised upwards. Obama has no power or authority over these statistics; if he did, and wished to dummy the results, he'd have interceded to have the initial figures elevated. The initial reports were the far bigger news stories; revisions always get a lowlier place inside the business section and lower placement on the financial news websites. Check out how many stories rank above this one on the WSJ homepage. This story isn't going to make much of a splash at all. It is however, at least nice to know that employment is slightly better than had been believed.
Also, the Bureau of Economic Analysis has revised 2nd quarter GDP growth downward, from 1.7% to 1.3%. If President Obama was attempting a sleight-of-hand with the release of government economic data, he surely whiffed by not catching this one.
I love chaos but I have to quit doing this on my work time here at the Fort Davis dump.
WSW thing, that's big talk for a military service liar. Lucky that stolen honor thing didn't whack you upside your head.
> Go to the Bureau of Labor Statistics website. The March 2011 final revision was released in January 2012.
Apparently you are. Those are the final revisions . . . the preliminary revisions are issued in September.
It seems strange that the WSJ uses a 400,00 job headline whe the actual data later in the article suggest a very modest jobs increase. Is the WSJ trying to sell more papers by slightly twisting the truth?
More worthless bureaucrats on the payroll of the financial mafia.
Where do they find such vermin?
Thanks us for reminding us that if it's good economic news, it's a lie, and vice versa. What a miserable bunch you are.

So many lazy bloggers on this thread. It is amazing. Everyone wants "free money". Well, the hope is that you will be forced to work and stop draining the taxpayer.
A winner and a third this week so far. Picked a few bucks. Can't believe the lazy schmucks demanding money to sit on their asses. Work is available; get out and look.
Oh, support Dr. Bernanke......
LMAO! Keep em coming!
7:02 or dumb ass or WSW - whatever
I'm afraid it's the fed and the banks who want free money that they never pay back idiot.. They make money the old fashioned way, they steal it. I suggest the bankers make it on their own. They'd go under tomorrow if they had to do that.
So many hazy floggers on this bread. It is amazoning. Everyone wants tree honey". Well, the slope is that you will be forked to work and stop draining the taxpayer, only the fed should be allowed to do that.
A weiner and a turd this week so far. Picked up a few bucks in a bar. Can't believe the hazy lucks dehanding Eddie money to sit on their cases. Mork is available; get out and look for Mindy.
Way to go Kendricks!
Britain's top financial regulator will deliver a stinging attack on the banks that rigged the Libor interest rate and the trade body that oversees it on Friday and lay out a 10-point plan to repair the discredited benchmark rather than replace it.
Martin Wheatley, managing director of the Financial Services Authority (FSA), will press the "reset button" to restore the integrity of the interest rate that Barclays was fined a record 290 million pounds ($470 million) in June for manipulating.
"The system is broken and needs a complete overhaul," Wheatley says in a speech made available in advance.
"The disturbing events we have uncovered in the manipulation of Libor have severely damaged our confidence and our trust -- it has torn the very fabric that our financial system is built on."
Royal Bank of Scotland is expected to be next to settle Libor charges, with other banks to follow.
Wheatley's review marks the first step towards overhauling the system of setting rates which are used as a benchmark for pricing trillions of dollars worth of financial products ranging from complex derivatives to simple home loans.
Confidence in the way Libor is set has been undermined by the fixing scandal that involves some of the world's biggest banks and traders in London, New York and Singapore.
Users of Libor -- the London interbank offered rate -- will breathe a sigh of relief that Wheatley has decided on no alternative rate and has instead opted for "comprehensive" reform of the existing benchmark.
Asset management firms say they feared a rapid move to a new rate risked disrupting millions of contracts for credit cards and home and business loans that stretch out many years.
Libor is a suite of 150 benchmarks covering many currencies and maturities, compiled from a panel of banks who quote a rate at which they believe they could borrow from one another.
It is used in financial transactions worth at least $300 trillion globally and will in future be directly regulated by the FSA.
Governance and oversight will be stripped from a "careless" British Bankers' Association and handed to an independent body that will be selected by open tender.
"The British Bankers' Association clearly failed to properly oversee the Libor setting process and should take no further role in the administration and governance of Libor," Wheatley says.
The BBA said it worked closely with Wheatley on his review and it has strongly stated the need for greater regulatory oversight of Libor and tougher sanctions for manipulation.
"The absolute priority now for everyone is to ensure the provision of a reliable benchmark which has the confidence and support of all users, contributors and global regulators, and we will work closely with the government and regulatory bodies to ensure this," the BBA said.
The tender will be run by an independent committee headed by Baroness Hogg, who chairs the Financial Reporting Council, the independent British corporate governance regulator.
Thomson Reuters, parent company of Reuters, has a contract to calculate and distribute Libor rates for the BBA.
The British government commissioned Wheatley to report on reforming Libor and is expected to back his findings in full. Legislative changes will be inserted into the financial services bill now going through parliament.
"Today's independent report is very clear -- the self-regulation of Libor has failed. The government will respond, in full, once parliament returns," Clark said in a statement.
Too many traders at banks had an interest in "gaming the system" by trying to push Libor higher or lower to make a deal more profitable and pocket a bigger bonus, Wheatley says.
"They were allowed to do this freely with no oversight ... What's more and worse, is that we are not talking about a few rogue individuals, but a systemic problem."
Criminal sanctions will be introduced to punish manipulation and there will also be strict and detailed processes for verifying submissions against hard market data.
More banks will be encouraged to submit Libor quotes, using "new powers of regulatory compulsion" if necessary.
Transactions will be recorded with regular external audits of banks who participate. Bank employees making Libor submissions will have to be approved by the FSA.
Banks will have to comply with submission guidelines from Wheatley straight away until the new independent body is appointed to run Libor.
Over the coming year, the number of Libor rates will be whittled down from 150 to 20 by ditching those based on Australian, Canadian and New Zealand dollars, as well as Swedish and Danish krone.
Maturities covering four, five, seven, eight, 10 and 11 months will be scrapped, leaving 20 rates based on short maturities in currencies such as the U.S. dollar and the pound.
Bravo. Well Played!
I love it when my narrative is "messed up" Ha, Ha. Keep is coming. LMAO!
Support The Fed and the G30.
We are giving the initials guy too much press. Ignore him.
When will these "revised numbers" be revised again. Do these employees at the BLS actually get paid for this shoddy unreliable "product". What good are these numbers if they just keep changing. Why pay people for such foolishness?
Personally, I believe all those shovel-ready jobs have finally surfaced.
Your narrative is always messed up anyway WSW person.
It's much worse and insidious than a depression. There is no way out that's not going to be a DISASTER, but it cannot continue so we must have that disaster. By delaying what should be done, when it comes it is going to be really bad. The gov't had two options-default or inflate and they've chosen inflation (nobody consulted US but you and I are certainly going to pay for it big time). They're intensifying the effects of their fraud with QE (Qualitative Elimination of the dollar). The end situation will be much worse than a depression. Food shortages, no gasoline, no electricity and no hope. They'll have to have martial law (where's that in the Constitution?) and that will run forever. The Constitution will be ignored completely. I wouldn't want to be the one inaugurated next January 20-the fan is going to get dirty.
WHERE are these 400,000 jobs ???? We will allll coming running.
Only 35 percent of business owners said Obama is handling the presidency in the right way, Gallup reported, making them one of the occupational groups with the most negative opinion of the president."
"The private sector is doing fine".
- Barry Soetoro
Home on the fracking range Malarkey-D is focused like a laser to stop natural gas.Markey seems to think that natural gas prices have no effect on production, and that production isn't elastic.In the disguise of saving taxpayers money, they want to stop fracking. They think they can strangle the natural gas industry by stifling the development of its uses. They came for coal and the Oil and Gas industries were silent, now they come for natural gas, in the end the American consumer will pay!!!
Knowone believes this story, another lie to help Obama.
Right. It's just "coincidental" that obama's government released these newly fudged figures just prior to the election.
The have NO CREDIBILITY.
As Morton Friedman stated: "Inflation is a tax." This tax has been put in place by the Fed and every American will have to pay it.
"The Bureau of Labor Statistics on Thursday released an early look at its annual "benchmark revision" of its payroll data. When the preliminary revisions become final early next year, the official data should show that there were 386,000 more jobs in March than previously believed. The private sector did even better, adding 453,000 jobs versus previous estimates."
Wow! What a surprise positive employment revisions weeks before the election.
This is a crap of junk. Doesn't take the brightest person to figure out this is to help Obama. Why not tell the truth, Oh, I forgot that is not the policy of this president.
Oh man, this was sick! Definitely sharing this sucker with friends :). Thank you!

About Me
Very temporarily not accepting hosts. Busy week. SORRY!!
Be happy.
I am a funny, caring, easygoing individual. I have been known to put helping others above the needs of my own, as well as having fun and letting loose! I guess I must have some fun after dealing with everyone's stress. haha
Life is too short to stress over one thing for too long.
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I will be traveling solo soon and it would be a good way to start me in the right direction. I recently hosted a couple (not through this site) and it went really well. We met through the site set up for a music festival that we were all going to. We have become friends and it gives both parties the opportunity to gain a new connection, a new experience with a new friendship!
See above
Sneakers, fashion, toys, art, MUSIC, fun times
Music, Movies, and Books
All Robert Greene books, The Art of War, anything I can gain from
For music (I'm going to try and be brief since it's late) Rakim, Biggie, Atmosphere, Sage Francis, Joell Ortiz, Theivery Corporation, Major Lazer, Skream, Benga, Andy C, Grooverider, The Cure, The Killers, The Black Stripes...GOOD MUSIC!
FILM: A lot from brilliant and edgy (Pi, Requiem for a dream, Garden State, Memento (maybe not so brilliant, but def edgy!) To stupid comedies (Spaceballs, Dumb and Dumber, Granmas Boy) to cult classics (King of New York, The Warriors, Taxi Driver) Independents (Y tu mama tambien, City of god), Anime (Ghost in the shell, Ninja Scroll)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Amazing is what you make of it. A day with a loved one can be amazing.

I can try and teach you Hebrew. But if I am only staying a couple of days I do not know if we will get far. haha

I am looking for a pattern for a running skort. I want it with boy shorts under it instead of panties. Here is a link to runningskirts.com.
I don't run but I would love this for working out. Any suggestions?
I have been looking at these for a while and somehow keep putting off ordering - probably because I can't seem to decide on just the right fabric.
Here are two from Jalie:
2796 - option for shorts or "hot pants" underneath
2215 - attached panties
And one from Kwik Sew: 3051 - attached panties
It probably wouldn't be too hard to make your own pattern too - the skirt part would be easy, but briefs or shorts would require a little more fitting if you don't already have a pattern you like.
Terry has a line of skorts that are fantastic. check out www.terrybicycles.com/. Basically they have a spandex short (with or without bike pad) under a wrap around microfiber skirt. A basic wrap skirt, shortened to your length preference with a short might work.
I have the Jalie (one of them) but haven't made to say how hard it is or well it does the job.
I ordered the Jalie pattern. It should arrive in a couple of days. I'm so excited. Thanks for the help.

Ringwald Confirms as West End's New Sally, 2 Jun
Editorial Staff • West End • 13 May 2004
Hannigan and her co-star Luke Perry as well as other cast members will finish at the end of their contracts on 29 May 2004 (See News, 8 Jan 2004). Ringwald's Sally and her new Harry, who has not yet been announced, will start performances from 2 June, with a new press night on 15 June.
Ringwald is best-remembered as one of the 1980s "Brat Pack" of stars, appearing in hit teenage films like The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink and Sixteen Candles. Her other film credits include Tempest, Some Folks Call It a Slingblade, Office Killer, The Pick-Up Artist, Fresh Horses and Betsy's Wedding. On stage, she's been seen in Cabaret, Enchanted April and Tick Tick Boom in New York, and How I Learned to Drive in Los Angeles.
Rob Reiner's 1989 film of When Harry Met Sally starred Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan as one-time college classmates who move to New York and, over many years, hate each other, become friends and, against their own better judgments, eventually fall in love. Playwright Marcy Kahan adapted the original Nora Ephron screenplay for this premiere stage production.
In addition to Perry and Hannigan in the title roles, the current cast also features Kevin Collins, Sharon Small, Jake Broder, Elizabeth Jasicki and Richard Teverson. When Harry Met Sally is directed by Loveday Ingram and designed by Ultz, with music by British jazz musicians Jamie and Ben Cullum.

Yeah - given I was told to expect my next email in about a month when I deferred back to production in August, it's getting a bit frustrating. I am actually divided somewhat: I want it NOW (like everyone else) but also like the thought that when I get mine most/all of the issues people have now will be resolved.
Talked to 4 people about Model S today as I was driving around. Twice I was asked "Are these available in Canada?"......

Picture: Amanda Bynes Launch party to celebrate Amanda Byne's new clothing line 'Dear' held at Steve and Barry's - Arrivals New York City, USA - 08.08.07
Actress Amanda Bynes has distanced herself from party-loving stars such as Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears, arguing the only thing they have in common is their age group.
The Hairspray star, 21, isn't interested in hitting Hollywood nightclubs, and plans to stay as grounded as possible as her career continues to take off.
She says, "We're only compared because of our age. Other than that, I never wanted to be a model. I never wanted to be a serious actress.
"I'm in no way in competition with them. I feel like I have a totally different thing."

Florence » Tourist Info » Getting to Florence »
Getting to Florence by Air
The Florence airport (FLR) is called Amerigo Vespucci and is situated on the north-west outskirts of Florence, just 4 km from the city center. The airport can be reached from the center of Florence, driving the whole length of Viale Guidoni up to the road leading to the "Firenze Nord/Firenze Mare" superhighway (A1 and A11).
The center can be reached in about 15 minutes by taxi, and in about 20 minutes with the Busitalia SITA Nord "Vola in Bus" bus shuttle operating between the airport and the central railway station of Santa Maria Novella. See below for more details.
The Florence Airport is connected to some of Europe's major airports such as Amsterdam, Barcelona, Brussels, Bucharest, Frankfurt, Geneva, London Gatwick, Madrid, Munich, Paris Charles de Gaulle and Vienna. There are also flights to and from the following Italian cities: Bologna, Cagliari, Catania, Milan Malpensa, Olbia, Palermo, Rome Fiumicino, Turin and Verona.
The airport is also easily reached from other Tuscan cities as it is just off the A11 and A1 Firenze Nord exit : Prato (8 km), Pistoia (24 km), Montecatini (36 km), Lucca (65 km), Siena (68 km), Arezzo (77 km), Pisa (86 km), Carrara and Massa (117 km), Grosseto (143 km), as well as from the sea and its ports: Livorno (115 km) and Piombino (170 km).
For more information, visit the airport's website at: www.aeroporto.firenze.it/
Getting to/from downtown Florence
From the Florence airport, you can get to downtown Florence either with a taxi (read more information on moving around Florence with a taxi here) or with the special "Vola in Bus" bus shuttle (run by BusItalia Sita Nord now) that you can take from the airport to the central Santa Maria Novella train station (SMN). It takes about 20 minutes, sometimes a little more if there is heavy traffic. The service runs daily, including Sundays and holidays.
Departures from the airport are every 30 min between 5.30 am to 8.30 pm, then every hour until 11.45 pm. The last shuttle is at 1am, but at this hour, it will be more convenient to take a taxi.
Departures from the city center (SMN train station) are every 30 min between 5.00 am to 8.00 pm, then every hour up until 11.00 pm. The last shuttle is at 12:30am.
A one-way ticket costs 6 euros while a round trip ticket costs 10 euros. Tickets can be purchased directly on board from the driver at no extra charge (but keep in mind they only sell one-way tickets on board). The round trip tickets have to be purchased before getting on the bus, at the Busitalia SITA bus station off SMN or at ATAF&Li-nea resellers (most newsagents sell ATAF tickets as well as many coffee "bar" shops).
You can check the Vola in Bus timetable here.

By Daniel Lefferts for Bookish:
One out of every 10 Wall Street employees is a clinical psychopath, the CFA Institute (an investment and financial analysis organization) reports in the latest issue of CFA Magazine. That makes psychopathy 10 times more prevalent among New York's financial elite than among us plebeians, for which the accepted statistic is a more palatable one in 100.
Psychopaths "generally lack empathy and interest in what other people feel or think," according to the study. "At the same time, they display an abundance of charm, charisma, intelligence, credentials, an unparalleled capacity for…manipulation, and a drive for thrill seeking." That Wall Street should harbor more than its share of psychopaths, then, will come as no shock to those frustrated by the entitlement and greed of the one percent. The study also shows how easily psychopaths can pass, however, blending into our lives as co-workers, friends and even romantic partners.
Who are the psychopaths in your life? Here are five important questions to ask, and the books to help you answer them.
Psychopaths pervade all social classes and environments, and everyone is likely to encounter one--usually with negative consequences--at some point in their life, explains psychologist Robert D. Hare, Ph.D., in his defining book, "Without Conscience: The Disturbing World of Psychopaths Among Us." Hare, a premier expert on psychopathy, profiles a wide cast of characters--murders, predators, con-artists, as well inconspicuous run-of-the-mill types--all united by a single chilling trait: their complete lack of conscience. He also probes questions like: Is psychopathy a product of nature or nurture? Is it treatable? And can we really blame psychopaths for their behavior if they technically suffer from a disorder?
In "The Sociopath Next Door" Martha Stout, Ph.D., lists seven core traits of the disorder, such as deceit, remorselessness and impulsivity; a person must exhibit at least three of these characteristics to be classified as a sociopath. Throughout the book run narratives of "ordinary people"--such as a trust fund baby with a habit of killing frogs, and a manipulative nurse with forged qualifications--who lure others into their lies and leave them devastated.
Psychopaths flock to high-energy, profit-obsessed corporations that value employees with charisma, intensity and the confidence to take risks--particularly in industries such as finance and advertising--according to "Snakes in Suits: When Psychopaths Go to Work,"co-authored by Hare and industrial-organizational psychologist Paul Babiak. Psychopathic workers, they find, perform well on the job at first, but tend to outstay their welcome quickly--manipulating supervisors, influencing naïve coworkers, draining company funds, and leaving the workplace in a state of disarray when they exit.
Barbara Bentley thought she'd found the man of her dreams in John Perry--charismatic, intelligent and cosmopolitan. But she soon learned he was also manipulative and dishonest: Perry drove his wife into financial ruin, and eventually tried to kill her. In "A Dance With the Devil: A True Story of Marriage to a Psychopath," Bentley opens up about her years under the Perry's spell, the courage it took to finally resist his persuasion and her efforts to help other spouses in the same situation.
That's the unsettling question that British writer and documentary filmmaker Jon Ronson raises midway through his 2011 hit bestseller, "The Psychopath Test: A Journey Through the Madness Industry." Ronson interviews a number of figures who, according to the Hare Checklist, are clinical psychopaths. But the easygoing demeanor and friendly candor of these subjects leads Ronson to question the validity of the diagnoses--and to wonder if there might be a little bit of psychopath in all of us.

Moore says Yost's job is safe, shoulders blame for Royals' struggles
GM Dayton Moore still believes Ned Yost is the manager who can get the Royals to the playoffs this season.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Royals shuffled their coaching staff on Thursday in an effort to jumpstart a lackluster season, naming Dale Sveum their new hitting coach. But general manager Dayton Moore doesn't believe the team's problems are tied to manager Ned Yost.
Moore told FOXSportsKansasCity.com that although the Royals were three games under .500 before Friday's 6-1 win at Toronto, and the season hasn't panned out as expected, Yost's job is safe.
"Yes, I have faith in Ned," Moore said by phone before Friday night's victory. "He is doing what he can."
Moore added that he still believes Yost is the manager who can get the Royals to the playoffs this season.
Moore also said that if there is any blame to pass around, it should fall squarely on the general manager's lap.
"Here's the bottom line: It's not Ned, it's not Pedro (Grifol), it's me," Moore said. "I'm responsible. It's all on me. At least that's the way I feel about it.
"It's my job to give the managers and the coaching staff the right players to succeed. I have to be able to give them the tools to win. So if we're not succeeding, ultimately the responsibility comes back to me. No one else."
Moore, however, did believe it was time for a shakeup of the coaching staff and agreed it was time for a new hitting coach to replace Grifol.
"Pedro did a wonderful job of pulling us out of it last season," Moore said. "For whatever reason, it's not happening now like it did in the second half last year. Sometimes having a different voice makes a difference.
"But again, it comes down to the players performing. And the person who brings the players in is me. So it's not Pedro, it's me."

Turbelle® stream electronic
Turbelle® stream electronic is a speed-controlled pump operating on safety extra-low voltage, to be employed ideally in every aquarium from 200 to > 3,000 litres (52.8 to > 792.5 USgal.) for simulation of lapping waves or tidal currents. It contains a new microprocessor-controlled motor and thus can be called an "intelligent pump":
The electronic motor adapts its speed automatically to the pump load and always seeks the best efficiency at the lowest possible consumption of energy. This energy consumption is about fifty per cent lower than in conventional pump motors. The pumps will be stopped immediately in case of blockage. After the blockage has been removed, the pumps will start up automatically after a delay of 20 seconds.
The pump driver has been provided with a fish care function, which causes a revolution of the screw every twenty seconds when the pump is at a standstill.
It can be controlled by Multicontroller 7095, 7096 as well as Wavecontroller 7092.
Flow rate 6105: 1.01 - 1.02 m/s
Flow rate 6155: 0.72 - 0.73 m/s

Mixing reclaimed treasures with green products gives this living room new life. Try these eco-chic DIY ideas and products for a natural and green space.
Like lots of living spaces, this room was long, narrow, and devoid of character -- plus two door openings made arranging furniture tricky. The room was in desperate need of an update.
With lots of potential, the space was converted to a galley-type space using two small love seats across from one another to open up the space. A bright color palette awakened the dull room and gave it new life.
This eco-friendly living room played up the green experience by using a nature-influenced color scheme. Floral, fern, and bird motifs on the walls and accessories reinforce the room's natural attributes. Accent walls feature yellow wallpaper made from water-base inks and low-chemical paint.
Unfinished bookcases and drawers help create the look of a built-in home office area and offer plenty of storage. Materials from nature--raw wood, cork, wicker, hemp, and even potted grass--add great texture to open shelves. Add out-of-date maps as book covers for a fun and funky detail. Get creative with salvaged materials. Here, old suitcases are stacked to use for bonus storage.
Add personality with vintage finds. Here, a punchy green chenille bedspread is used to upholster the chair seat. Repurposing items--using something in a different way than it was originally intended for--is where your DIY ingenuity really comes into play and is a great green way of decorating, because it prevents items from filling up landfills.
The love seats are created from sustainable wood frames, upholstered in organic cotton, and filled with plant-based foam. Another green tip is to use reclaimed wood to furnish a living room, meaning using wood that has not been taken from a live-growth tree, but instead from an existing source such as old buildings, railroads or dead trees. These aged pieces are then milled into flooring, paneling, beams, and furniture such as the stacking tables in this living room.
To give the windows an eco-chic makeover use rods and finials made from renewable woods, which are woods made from quick growing and easy-to-replace plants. Also using vintage and natural fabrics such as cotton and wool for the window treatments adds a green touch to the project.
This rustic lamp was made from a square molding end cap and a table leg cut to size using a home center lamp kit. A fresh coat of paint, an updated shade, and a new finial complete the look. This eco-friendly project uses recycled materials, which includes using anything that has been created from an existing product--such as the table leg.
Personalize throw pillows by converting any image to fabric using image-transfer paper and an iron. Buy the paper online and use a computer to make the print. Place the image face down on the right side of the fabric and iron, following the package directions to set the image. Then, simply peel off the backing to reveal the image on the fabric--instant gratification.
Here, a butterfly print on a throw pillow is the product of a transfer print project, resulting in a beautiful, personal accessory. This room was furnished using eco and repurposed alternatives, including furniture and pillows made with organic cotton.
Want to transfer an image to fabric, similar to the butterfly pillow? Watch and see how easy an iron-on transfer project can be.
