ALEPPO, Syria, Aug 4 (Reuters) - Syrian artillery, planes and a helicopter gunship pounded rebel positions in Aleppo on Saturday, witnesses said, as President Bashar al-Assad's forces tried to break through the insurgents' frontline in Syria's largest city.
Syrian forces clashed with rebels around Aleppo's television and radio station, activists said, and a local rebel commander said his fighters were preparing for a "strong offensive" by government forces on the city.
In the capital Damascus, troops backed by armour stormed the last opposition bastion on Friday in a drive to crush a rebel offensive that coincided with a bombing that killed four of Assad's senior security officials. The onslaught continued on Saturday as jets bombarded the city, a resident said.
Syrian forces battered Aleppo's Salaheddine district, seen as a gateway for the army into the city of 2.5 million people. The fate of the district could determine the outcome of a conflict that has already claimed some 18,000 lives.
"There is one helicopter and we're hearing two explosions every minute," a Reuters witness said.
The civil war has intensified in the past few weeks, with fighting engulfing Damascus and Aleppo for the first time in the 17-month-old uprising against Assad family rule.
The two cities are crucial prizes for both sides in a conflict that has eluded all attempts at a diplomatic solution and risks igniting a wider conflagration.
U.N. member states on Friday voted overwhelmingly to condemn the Syrian government at a special session of the 193-nation General Assembly that Western diplomats said highlighted the isolation of Assad supporters Russia and China.
Western and Arab powers want Assad to step aside but Russia and China have used their Security Council vetoes to block attempts to force him out. They say outside interference is prolonging the bloodshed.
Assad's government, allied to Iran and Lebanon's armed Shi'ite Hezbollah movement, is at odds with Turkey and most of the Arab world, especially U.S.-aligned states such as Saudi Arabia and its Sunni-ruled Gulf partners.
In Salaheddine, rebels from the Free Syrian Army hid in alleyways, dodging the Syrian army's bullets and tank rounds that struck a building in the western district on Saturday.
Two fighter jets opened fire with cannon and smoke billowed from the district. A witness said: "We saw two fighter bombers that are each capable of carrying one bomb fly over the area of Salaheddine and then we heard two explosions."
Bullets zipped past residential buildings, as rebels took cover behind concrete blocks and makeshift sandbags and fired in the direction of Assad's forces.
One fighter fell to the ground after a bullet hit his chest. Fellow rebels dragged him into a car, leaving a trail of blood on the ground, to take him to the field hospital.
Explosions shook the shutters of abandoned shops and brought down a rain of concrete from buildings in Salaheddine.
A Syrian activist told Reuters the rebels had earlier sought to extend their area of control from the Salaheddine district, where the most intense fighting has been focused, northwards to the area around the television and radio station.
"The Free Syrian Army pushed from Salaheddine to al-Adhamiya where they clashed this morning with Syrian troops. But they had to retreat," the activist who identified himself as Barraa al-Halabi told Reuters.
A 19-year-old fighter called Mu'awiya al-Halabi, who was at the scene, said rebels entered the station but were driven out.
"The Syrian army sent snipers and surrounded the TV station and as soon as morning came, the army started shooting. One of our fighters was martyred and four were wounded," he said.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, which said 110 people had been killed on Friday, including 88 civilians, also confirmed the clash near the station.
Syrian television said a large number of terrorists, the term it uses for the rebels, were killed and wounded after they tried to storm the television and radio station. It said the army had killed dozens of fighters in Hamadaniyeh, Sukkari and Salaheddine districts and that others had surrendered.
Earlier in the day, a local rebel commander in Aleppo said he expected a Syrian army attack on rebels "within days", echoing the head of the U.N. peacekeeping department, who said there had been a "considerable build-up of military means".
"We know they are planning to attack the city using tanks and aircraft, shooting at us for three to four days and they plan to take the city," Colonel Abdel-Jabbar al-Oqaidi said.
Faced with the Syrian army's superior firepower, Oqaidi said the rebels were counting on mass defections by government soldiers once the offensive started.
"At the moment the soldiers cannot leave their bases and they are too afraid to defect. Once they are inside our city they will take off their uniforms and join us," he said.
In Damascus, a resident in the Adawi neighbourhood just north of the central Old City district, reported that jets had pounded an area of the capital on Saturday. "The bombardment has been continuous since 7 am (0400 GMT) in Tadamun district. It hasn't stopped for a moment," said the resident.
On Friday Syrian forces stormed Tadamun, the rebels' last stronghold in the city.
Syrian television said on Saturday an armed terrorist group had committed a massacre in the Damascus suburb of Yalda, near Tadamun . The television station said 20 people had been killed. It was not immediately possible to veriy the incident as Syria bars many foreign media from reporting inside the country.
Former U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, who is quitting as international peace envoy for Syria, said on Thursday that Assad should step down. He urged Syria allies Russia, China and Iran to persuade him to embrace political transition.
A bus-load of 48 Iranian pilgrims were abducted by gunmen in Syria on Saturday, Iranian media reported, the latest in a string of kidnappings of visitors from the Islamic Republic.
France24 correspondents Matthieu Mabin and Sofia Amara report from the front lines of a rebel offensive against the Syrian army in Damascus.
Watch the exclusive report in the video below.
Clashes between Assad supporters and opponents of the Syrian regime killed two people in Lebanon on Friday, the Associated Press reports. 17 people were injured.The AP gives more context:
Syria was in virtual control of its smaller neighbor for many years, posting tens of thousands of troops in Lebanon, before withdrawing under pressure in 2005. Even without soldiers on the ground, Syria remains influential, and its civil war has stirred longstanding tensions that have lain under Lebanon's surface.

An interesting evening
Warnings/notes : Yohji x Farfarello, Omi x Schuldich, Aya x Ken. Complete absence of both Nagi and Crawford. Shouting. (Meaning I typed some things in capitals), bits of fluff, a kiss
Disclaimer : I don't own Weiss Kreuz.
written at 16th April 2003, by Misura, part 10 of 10 (yes, it's the last part!)
For I-luv-Kairi, hope you like it! I finally came up with a lighter plot for this pairing :).
"What was that noise?" Ken asked, jumping up.
"Don't know. Don't care." Aya replied.
Yohji was amazed to find himself enjoying the kiss. It felt ... nice. Not what he had expected.
As he heard a loud noise behind him, his first instinct was to ignore it.
Until it dawned on him what that sound most likely meant ...
"Aya! Someone might be hurt!" Ken bristled. "So open up that door so we -or I at least- can go and check if everything's all right. Please!"
"All right. I'll come with you. There's nothing to see anymore anyway. They probably heard it too."
Ken sprinted down the stairs as soon as Aya unlocked and opened the door to his room, while the redhead followed at a slower pace, determined to show some dignity.
It's not like there's any need to be hasty. No one is in any danger.
Though Ken might be if they suspect he was spying on them ...
He's such a bad liar ; he'd never be able to deny it if they asked him ...
And I already saw Farfarello has a knife in his pocket.
"Ken! Wait for me!"
Cursing softly, Aya started to run.
Yohji swung the door open and two persons rolled into the room.
"WHAT WERE YOU DOING OUT THERE?" he roared.
Innocent blue eyes looked up at him. "Now Yohji-kun, don't get so upset over such a small thing. We are really sorry we interrupted you two."
"Omi, I'm not upset. I'M ANGRY! Now explain what you were doing out there."
"Well ... "
"We ... "
"They were spying on us." Farfarello said calmly.
"No! We'd never ... "
"Of course not!"
"SILENCE! You were spying on us. Didn't we tell you not to?"
"Maybe, I can't quite remember ... "
"It was a bit vaguely phrased ... "
At this moment, Ken arrived, closely followed by Aya, who looked rather annoyed.
"And what are you doing here, Kenken?"
"I heard a noise. So I thought I should go and check it out. Just in case."
"In case someone was hurt and needed help." Aya added.
"As you can see, no one has come to any harm ... yet." Yohji said, glaring at Omi and Schuldich who had gotten up from the floor, trying to look remorseful. "So you can go right back to what you were doing."
Farfarello sniggered. "They were spying on us too."
"No, that's not ... I mean ... "
"It was Ken! Not me!" Aya defended himself. After a moment's consideration (and a hurt glance from his lover) he added : "And you can't blame him."
"Aya's right. You asked for it." Schuldich remarked.
"I most certainly did not." Yohji sputtered.
"You gave us the idea." Omi said. "You gave us the idea, as well as the opportunity by staying in this house rather than going out. So you have no right to complain now."
"Omi is right." Farfarello nodded. "You have no reason to be angry."
Yohji sighed. "Fine, fine. But next time ... "
"There's going to be a next time? Oh, Yohji-kun, I'm so happy for you two!"
"Congratulations, Yohji!"
"Well done, Farf. I knew the two of you would turn out all right."
"What next time?" Farfarello asked.
An awkward silence fell.
"Uhm, I assumed you wanted to see me again." Yohji said finally.
"I do."
Yohji sighed with relief, while Omi regained his smile.
"When and where shall we meet?"
"I don't know. What would you like?"
"Tomorrow? Early evening?"
"Fine with me."
"I'll pick you up at five."
Farfarello nodded. "Okay."
"Well then if that's settled, I think we should be going now." Schuldich said. "I mean it's rather late and everything. Some people have to rise early tomorrow."
Omi pouted.
"Don't worry, love. Tomorrow night I will be all yours." Schuldich added with a smile. "And don't fret to much about that math-test ; you'll do fine."
During the car-ride back home, neither of the two Schwarz-members spoke much. Finally, Schuldich could no longer contain his curiosity.
"So, how was it?"
"How was what?"
"Well, the kiss, for one thing."
"None of your business."
"The evening as a whole then."
Farfarello smiled and looked out of the window. "All in all it was ... an interesting evening."
"So, Yohji-kun, I assume you had a good time?" Omi asked cautiously.
"Oh, yeah. I guess you can say that." Yohji replied.
Aya and Ken had returned to Aya's room immediately after Schuldich and Farfarello had left, so the two of them were alone in the living-room now.
"I'm glad to hear that." Omi beamed.
"Only, Omi?"
"Yes, Yohji-kun?"
"If you ever try something like this again, I'll kill you. Do you understand me?"
Omi gulped. "Perfectly."

Like Sitting in the Middle of the Movie Theater? That's Gonna Cost You Extra Now
Movie theaters tickets have gotten steadily more expensive over the years, but this takes the proverbial cake: a Canadian theater chain has announced a new program where moviegoers will have to pay a surcharge to sit in the middle seats of each row. You'll soon have to pay an additional $2-$3 to sit in the "prime" seats, ensuring that you'll have the (supposed) best view of the screen and that you'll be isolated from all of the riffraff in the cheap seats.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2′ Swings Into First Place
As expected, 'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' opened the summer movie season in style, overcoming mixed reviews to dominate the top 10 and cause every other film's weekend gross to tumble. Coming weeks will see if it can do the business of the other films in the franchise, but this is a strong start to what looks to be a jam-packed summer.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'The Other Woman' Defeats 'Captain America 2′
After nearly a month on top of the box office, 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier' got taken down by a bunch of funny ladies. 'The Other Woman' effortlessly took the top spot, sending Marvel's latest superhero adventure to the number two slot and making the other new releases of the week look bad.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Captain America 2′ Runs Laps Around 'Rio 2′
This weekend saw a neck-and-neck race for the first spot at the box office, with the animated 'Rio 2' offering strong competition for last week's champion, 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier.' When the dust, debris and feathers settled, the one starring the superhero took the first slot, but there is no shame in a second place that strong.
'Intramural' Trailer: 'SNL' Stars Give Sports Movies a Nice Kick in the Butt
Few genres are as ripe for parody as sports dramas, and the upcoming 'Intramural' looks like it'll fit the bill quite nicely. The trailer for the small sports comedy made its way online, and if the rest of the film is as weird and funny as these two-and-a-half minutes, it could be something to keep an eye on.
'Fast and Furious: Supercharged' Ride Is Coming to Universal Studios
After years of playing second fiddle to Disney in the theme park business, Universal is officially coming out swinging. In addition to an expanded focus on their Harry Potter and Simpsons licenses, and a new 'Despicable Me' ride, they have finally announced an attraction based on their massively popular 'Fast and Furious' franchise.
'Chef' Trailer: Jon Favreau Cooks Up a Spicy New Movie
After a decade of toiling away at big-budget blockbusters like 'Iron Man' and 'Cowboys and Aliens,' director Jon Favreau is returning to his independent roots with 'Chef.' The trailer for the summer release is has arrived and, if you'll pardon the terrible pun, it looks pretty delicious.
Hollywood Legend Mickey Rooney Dead at 93
'The Drop' Trailer: See James Gandolfini's Final Performance
There's a lot to admire in the new trailer for 'The Drop.' The first thing you'll notice is the presence of the late, great James Gandolfini is his final role. The second thing you'll notice is that Tom Hardy just plain smolders, even with a Brooklyn accent. The third thing you'll notice is that this is the American debut of director Michaël Roskam, the Oscar-nominated filmmaker behind the fantastic and truly unique crime film 'Bullhead.' Yeah, this is a movie you should keep your eye on.
Weekend Box Office Report: 'Noah' and Russell Crowe Flood 'Sabotage' and Arnold Schwarzenegger
Insert your own "when it rains, it pours" joke right here. Darren Aronofsky's instantly controversial biblical epic 'Noah' overcame mixed buzz to win the box office this weekend, catering to both religious audiences and film buffs who like weird movies from unique, picky directors. But all was not well for everyone -- the latest film from a certain Hollywood action legend got washed away in 'Noah''s success.

Enough ancient history: 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil is the highest-placing new release in the UK this week, but unlike FIFA 14 it only reached second place; that top spot is still held by Titanfall. Maybe the most telling thing is FIFA 14 is only two places behind the World Cup game in 4th, some seven months after it was released.
It's lower down the charts where things get a bit more interesting this week. The physical Deluxe copies of Trials Fusion, which contain the game's season pass, did well enough to see the grueling bike-former debut in 7th place. Meanwhile, you have to go all the way down to 20th to find colorful MMO Final Fantasy 14: A Realm Reborn, which has just made its debut on PS4. On the other hand, Square Enix seemed pretty upbeat about the game reaching 2 million registrations last week, so make of that what you will.

'Hyde Park,' 'Lincoln' and more films give history a leading roleBreaking News
In "Hyde Park on Hudson," the retelling of the visit of the king and queen of England to President Franklin D. Roosevelt in upstate New York in 1939, there's a particularly remarkable scene: Roosevelt's mother — who owned the house where everyone stayed — had purchased a brand-new toilet seat for the royals. But after they left she returned it to the store where she bought it. The shop owner was delighted, hanging the seat in his front window. That's in the movie — and it happened in real life.
"People will think that was made up," says screenwriter Richard Nelson. "But that's hard to make up, and it's all true."
Writing historically based films — whether in invented worlds or periods of actual history — can be tricky: Truth is often stranger than fiction, yet writers must fictionalize on some level to make the truth both understood by audiences and to stay true to the period. In such films as "Hyde Park," "Argo," "Hitchcock," "Moonrise Kingdom," "Lincoln" and "Not Fade Away," each screenwriter wrestled with different demons to create verisimilitude along with the action, adventure and, well, history....

Fidelity's Bolton Bets on China Stocks Rising as UBS Sees Drop
Fidelity International's Anthony Bolton is betting on a rally in Chinese shares even as the central bank steps up measures to curb inflation. UBS AG strategist Chen Li predicts the nation's equities will fall a further 10 percent.
The Shanghai Composite Index has dropped 3.6 percent this year after tumbling 14 percent in 2010, the most among the world's 10 biggest stock markets. The Shanghai gauge's decline has driven down valuations for the 924 companies to an average of 17 times reported earnings, compared with the 12-year average of 34 times, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"The growth is going to be quite strong, particularly in the first part of this year," said Bolton, who oversees $246 billion as president of investments for Fidelity International. "Emerging markets are going to have to live with a structurally higher level of inflation than they have in the past, but I don't think this is a showstopper."
The stock index dropped 3 percent yesterday, the most in two months, after the central banks told lenders on Jan. 14 to set aside more reserves for the fourth time in two months. China is seeking to preserve growth while combating inflation and asset bubbles through tighter lending and administrative measures such as sales from government food stockpiles.
Growth Forecasts
A government report on Jan. 20 will probably show inflation cooled to 4.6 percent in December from a 28-month high of 5.1 percent in November, according to the median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey of 27 economists. The economy expanded 9.4 percent in the fourth quarter, the poll showed. Growth will probably drop to 8.7 percent in 2011 from 10 percent last year, the World Bank predicted in a Jan. 12 report.
The Shanghai Composite has fallen 14 percent from a six-month high on Nov. 8. The declines will end when the price-earnings ratio for the Shanghai Composite drops to 11 or 12 times last year's estimated earnings, UBS's Chen said. The index is valued at 13.1 times projected profit for the next 12 months, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"That's about a 10 percent decline for the Shanghai Composite or the CSI 300 Index before the market reaches the bottom," Chen said.
Smaller Chinese companies may fall as much as 20 percent this year because the shares are too expensive relative to future corporate earnings, Chen said at a briefing organized by the Swiss brokerage yesterday.
'Fewer Opportunities'
"There will be much fewer opportunities to achieve above-average returns from small-cap stocks this year than last year," Chen said. "Good stocks are already not cheap."
China has lagged behind counterparts across Asia in raising interest rates to fight inflation as food and commodity costs climb in the wake of economic recovery in the region. Thailand raised its main rate for the fourth time in seven months on Jan. 12. The Bank of Korea completed its third such move since mid-2010 the next day. Since March, India's central bank has lifted rates six times and Malaysia three times, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Premier Wen Jiabao's government boosted interest rates for the second time in 2010 on Dec. 25, while ordering six increases in reserve requirements for banks.
"China has a difficult balance; it needs to sustain growth and constrain inflation," Bolton said in a speech at the Asian Financial Forum in Hong Kong yesterday. "China has lots of ways of controlling inflation, particularly food inflation. It probably has more ways of controlling inflation than most economies."
Grain, Oil
China will increase grain and cooking oil stockpiles for timely release onto the market to ensure adequate supplies and manage inflation, Nie Zhenbang, director of the State Administration of Grain, said Nov. 19. China will also sell soybeans and vegetable oil from its stockpiles, the agency said. The Commerce Ministry will "closely monitor" prices over the next quarter, especially during holiday periods, and keep releasing stores of pork and sugar, it said Dec. 15.
The central bank will likely use administrative policies to soak up excess liquidity and limit inflation, including direct orders to banks to limit lending, and may sell bills to commercial banks, Fan Gang, a former central bank adviser, said Jan. 10.
Faster economic growth in developing nations will continue to lure investors to Asian equities, Bolton said. Gross domestic product in China may rise 9 percent in 2011, based on the median economist estimate from a Bloomberg survey. That compares with growth of 3.1 percent in the U.S. and 1.5 percent for countries in the European Union, the projections show.
Emerging Funds
Emerging-market stock funds took a record $92.1 billion last year, compared with outflows of $62.4 billion for funds that buy developed-market shares, according to Cambridge, Massachusetts-based research firm EPFR Global.
The Fidelity China Special Situations Plc, a closed-end fund that Bolton manages, has risen 15 percent since it began on April 19. That's double the 7.7 percent advance for the MSCI China Index, based on data compiled by Bloomberg.
"I see monies continuing to flow from investors in the developed world into emerging markets," Bolton said. "The flows will pick up and I think that has big implications."

Legendary Castlevania creator Koji Igarashi looks to Kickstarter to get a new game, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, off the ground.
A report says Microsoft is closing down its in-game advertising unit Massive--a company it is said to have paid several hundred million dollars for just a few years ago.
In-game advertising is growing, but not as fast as virtual goods. When will the two join up for a 360-degree user experience?
In-game advertising has huge potential, but the lack of standards is holding up the maturation of the market.
More than a year after its $23 million purchase of AdScape Media, the search giant finally gets into the crowded in-game advertising field.
The search giant may finally be ready to unveil the fruits of its purchase of Adscape and compete for what is expected to be a billion-dollar market by 2011.
Sony teams with IGA Worldwide to make it possible for game publishers to incorporate the ads in their PS3 games.
It turns out there are alot of ways to make money from video games
The Valley blog mogul Michael Arrington hosted a panel at New York's DigitalLife convention, and it showed promise--if only the setting had been right.
Along with game sales figures, advertisers should consider impact of social game play, used game sales, rentals, game sharing.

Native American Studies Minor
The Native American Studies Minor consists of 21 semester hours and requires the completion of the course requirements listed below.
Native American Studies Minor Checklist:
Current NKU Undergraduate Catalog:
Ya'a'teeh! For more than 95% of the time humans have lived in the Americas, the only people here have been Native Americans.
To understand the history and cultures of the Americas, one must start with Native Americans. Far from disappearing either physically or culturally, Native Americans today are increasing in numbers and represent hundreds of vibrant and unique ways of life. To learn about Native Americans is to explore yet another avenue of what it means to be human.
The Commonwealth of Kentucky is rich in Native American culture. Northern Kentucky University is located in the heart of the prehistoric Ohio Valley mound-builder cultures of Adena, Hopewell, and Fort Ancient, on lands claimed by both the historic Shawnee and Cherokee.
The university is only about 50 miles from the soon-to-be-built Kentucky Center for Native American Arts and Culture and is recognized by the Kentucky Native American Heritage Commission.
The Director and Founder of Native American Studies at NKU is Dr. Sharlotte Neely who can be reached at her office in 230 Landrum or by phone at 859-572-5258 or 5259 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com. Dr. Neely does ethnohistoric and ethnographic research mostly with the North Carolina Cherokees.
There are two Native American student organizations at NKU: First Nations Student Organization and Kiksuya. Native American Studies minors are encouraged to participate in both, as well join the Student Anthropology Society.
Through Kiksuya, NKU students go to reservations in the Dakotas each May.
The program also sponsors an annual Native American Lecture Series each November, Native American Heritage Month in Kentucky.
At the end of each academic year, our department presents the Outstanding Student in Native American Studies Award.
There are about 150 Native American or individual tribal studies programs in the United States and Canada. NKU Native American Studies is the only such program in the entire Commonwealth of Kentucky and the Ohio Valley region.
There are about three dozen NKU faculty, staff, alumni, and friends who have specialized areas of expertise in Native American Studies and are willing to serve as resources. They can be reached at the following email addresses and welcome your questions:

Tourist raped in FijiComment on this story
Wellington -
A Canadian tourist was raped in Fiji when three men armed with knives burst into the room where she was staying with her husband, police said on Friday.
The attack on the couple at Rakiraki, on the north of the main island Viti Levu, took place on Monday night, a police spokeswoman said.
"The couple were in their room when they were robbed and the woman was allegedly raped," she told AFP via email.
The spokeswoman said a police task force was immediately established and ordered to conduct a round-the-clock investigation, resulting in the arrest of two men on Wednesday.
She said the couple had returned to Canada, but the police investigation was continuing.
The Pacific island nation, which has been run by a military-dominated government since a coup in 2006, is a popular spot for holidaymakers and is generally considered safe.
Tourism is a mainstay of the economy, attracting about 650 000 visitors in 2012 - mostly from Australia and New Zealand - and generating about FJ$1.3-billion ($793-million) in revenue, according to official data. - Sapa-AFP

U.S. 10-year Note Falls a Fifth Day, Longest Drop Since August
Treasury 10-year notes fell for a fifth day, the longest decline in 11 months, as the U.S. sold $21 billion of the securities and global stocks rallied, damping demand for the safest assets.
The offering drew a 3.119 percent yield, compared with a forecast of 3.109 percent in a Bloomberg News survey of eight of the Federal Reserve's 18 primary dealers. The U.S. will sell $13 billion of 30-year bonds tomorrow.
"The auction is consistent with the idea that rates should be backing up a bit from here, especially out the curve," said Carl Lantz, head of interest-rate strategy in New York at Credit Suisse Group AG, which as a primary dealer is obligated to bid in Treasury sales. "The long end got a little carried away in the flight-to-quality trade and equities are doing better, which is putting further pressure on Treasuries."
The yield on the benchmark 10-year note rose 7 basis points to 3.13 percent, the highest level since June 25, at 4:35 p.m. in New York, according to BGCantor Market Data. The last time the yield increased for five days was the period ended Aug. 7. Thirty-year bond yields increased 6 basis points to 4.11 percent, also the highest since June 25. A basis point is 0.01 percentage point.
Today's auction was the second of three note and bond sales this week totaling $69 billion. The yield was the lowest since a 10-year note offering in April 2009. The bid-to-cover ratio, which compares total bids with the amount of securities offered, was 3.09, versus an average of 3.03 for the previous 10 sales.
Foreign Central Banks
Indirect bidders, an investor class that includes foreign central banks, purchased 41.7 percent of the notes, compared with an average of 40.7 percent for the past 10 sales. Direct bidders, non-primary-dealer investors who place their bids directly with the Treasury, bought 9.8 percent, compared with a 12.4 percent average for the past 10 offerings.
The Treasury sold $35 billion in three-year debt yesterday at 1.055 percent, the lowest yield on record at an auction of the security.
The Standard & Poor's 500 Index extended its longest winning streak in three months, advancing for a sixth day and gaining 1.5 percent.
"People are taking on more risk," said Tom Roth, senior Treasury trader in New York at Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc. "There's less fear and that cuts demand, but there is still solid demand for Treasuries."
Budget Gap Narrows
The U.S. budget deficit narrowed in June compared with the same month last year as the economic recovery brought in more tax revenue. The excess of spending over receipts fell to $68.4 billion from $94.3 billion in June 2009, Treasury data showed. For the fiscal year to date, the deficit was $1 trillion, compared with $1.42 trillion in the prior year to date.
"We're holding our bias to see 10-year yields test the 3.18 to 3.21 percent zone this month without a great deal of struggle," David Ader, head of government bond strategy in Stamford, Connecticut, at CRT Capital Group LLC, wrote in a note to clients. "There is a possibility of a move toward the large volume bulge from June between 3.26 percent and 3.30 percent."
The 10-year yield will climb to 3.36 percent by year-end, according to a Bloomberg survey of banks and securities companies' projections, with the most recent forecasts given the heaviest weightings.
Fed Minutes
The Federal Open Market Committee will release minutes tomorrow of its rate meeting last month. The central bank cited slowing inflation in its June 23 policy statement while reaffirming it foresaw a "moderate" pace of growth. It held the benchmark interest rate at a record low range of zero to 0.25 percent.
"The market will pay a lot of attention to the Fed minutes to see if there is any mention of the possibility of more quantitative easing," said Suvrat Prakash, an interest-rate strategist in New York at primary dealer BNP Paribas SA, referring to stimulus programs. "Inflation is still low, so rates hikes are still pushed into the future."
A gauge of trader expectations for consumer prices, the difference between yields on 10-year notes and Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, was 1.89 percentage points today, compared with this year's high of 2.49 percentage points in January. The consumer price index slid 0.1 percent in June after also falling in May and April, economists in a Bloomberg survey forecast the government will report on July 16.
Futures traders are betting the outperformance of longer-term Treasuries relative to those with shorter maturities will persist as the economy expands with few signs of inflation.
The number of contracts hedge funds and other large speculators hold betting on a decline in two-year notes outnumbers those counting on gain for the first time in over a year, according to Commodity Futures Trading Commission data as of July 6. The so-called net short position for 10-year notes has decreased by more than half since April.
The data "shows a strong move toward curve-flattening in the Treasury futures market," John Brady, senior vice president with the interest rates product group at MF Global Ltd. in Chicago, wrote with a group of analysts in a July 12 note.
The difference in yield between 2- and 10-year notes narrowed to 2.27 percentage points on July 1, the least since October expectations for inflation fell. It reached a record 2.94 percentage points on Feb. 18. The yield curve widened 4 basis points today to 2.46 percentage points.

!HERO is a rock opera about Jesus. It is based on the question, "What if Jesus was born in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania?". After the original tour in 2003 ended, it was released on DVD, CD, and was written into a trilogy of novels and series of comic books.
!HERO is a rock opera modernizing Jesus's last two years of life, as described in the Bible. The story takes place in New York City, in Brooklyn. The world government in this near-future dystopic Earth is centered under the International Confederation of Nations (ICON). Under the iron fist of I.C.O.N., nearly all religion in the world has been wiped out, except for small occult and mystic sects. Only one synagogue in Brooklyn exists. Currently, New York City is a police-occupied warzone between ethnic gangs and small, isolated revolutionary groups fighting I.C.O.N. Of all the ancient world religions, only Judaism survives and flourishes, at least, as much as it can.
In Bethlehem, PA, a child named Jesus, but referred to as HERO, is born and forced to flee with his family to the small Jewish section of Brooklyn. Jesus grows up and begins to preach and teach the principles of Christianity to the people of New York City, teaching people to love their enemies and care for each other. I.C.O.N. realizes HERO is a threat, and the Chief of Police Devlin (a derivative of The Devil or Satan), with the help of chief Rabbi Kai (Caiaphas), conspire to end HERO's revolutionary teachings.
The Opera is narrated by "Agent Hunter", a former I.C.O.N. agent who met HERO and was soon thrown into prison for joining him against I.C.O.N. The opera also features Petrov (Peter), Maggie (Mary Magdalene), and Jude (Judas Iscariot) the latter who conspires with Kai and Devlin to betray HERO. The storyline progresses through several stories about Jesus' miracles and sermons, using references from the Bible's four gospels, continues through Jesus' execution, at the hands of I.C.O.N's angry mob, and eventually ending with his resurrection.

I liked the aliens-of-the-week in this episode. They were both creepy and seductive, and they also had a clever scheme. Unfortunately Wang gave another bad performance, and the science behind this episode was pretty appalling. It was also pretty cheesy at times.
I wish that more time had been devoted to the aliens who attacked Voyager. Just what is their relationship to the aliens on the planet, and why are they so hostile towards them?
Another thing to note is just how much the aliens of this episode remind me of the Edo from TNG's
. They look like gorgeous goddesses, but underneath it all they are quite ruthless. I thought that was quite interesting.
All in all this is an okay episode, but it could have been better.
Before and After:
With the exception of The Year of Hell scenes (and Kes' long hair) I found this to be an incredibly dull and slow moving episode. Still, when this episode was good it was REALLY good.
You use the words dull and boring allot.
What do you look for in a story for it to be exciting in your POV?

Edthirty; agree they will and are presently distancing themselves from the extremist right wing. Assistance from the democrats will accelerate this procedure. Speculate republicans will then seek to restore their once Grand Party. Where and how they define the Grand Party will be debated amongst themselves for some time to come. Opening up new fissures that may eventually return them to the 1900s when they were fractured as the progressive republicans and the conservative republicans. Big Stick Teddy was a progressive republican. After he step down so Taft could be elected. It soon became clear that Taft was seduced to the conservative republicans. Theodore ran against Taft only to make sure that the conservative party would lose the election to Wilson. Which is now history. Ike was republicans last great progressive republican. Last 80 years they have been in decline with mere illusions and propaganda to support their elections.
Today with the internet and instant easy information research, their propaganda is fading leaving them with their mere illusionary tactics which it to can easily be unmasked. Only recourse I see for them is to embrace progressive ideologies with a taint of conservative ideals.
Who knows? For they control the wealth and may yet pull out another Bushwhacking puppet supported by the Supreme Court and we can go through this all over again. Great Depression {R} 1929, Great Recession 2008 {R} and they say third times a charm.
It will take {R} at least another decade to get their act together as history has demonstrated. Until then democrats will have the field and with any luck hold it for at least several decades to make sure republicans have sufficiently educated themselves. After all they have 80 years of austerity policies they have imposed upon our nation to overcome.
Exception Ike Eisenhower being a moderate, labeled republican.
Here Ill pass on the numbers to you on those 80 years. Comes from a book that broke down each president into statistical categories of achievements or lack of. Pay particular attention to the Income Gap evaluations. There in lies the crux of increasing inequality but that gives us a lead for another book to take up. This Book goes into far greater detail than this extremely compact comment that I will pass on to you . Dont let Tex or Defiant read it. They have so much on their plates now that they cant handle. Poor lads. to be continued

I do not believe he will be under estimated, merely prepared for. Also I do not believe he is intelligent enough to have learned enough. I mean if this country is dumb enough to put him in the White House; it deserves what ever happens. Personaly I figure it would add up to dumb, dumber, and dumbest. God have mercy on us if it happens.
#19221 Jul 18, 2013
Here are the numbers I said I would forward to you.
Lets go to the bottom line. Just which of the two partys is the party to party with? Lets put them to the numbers. Going back 80 years. That will expose as to who is who a little bit more clearly than hyped up foxy journalist could ever do or dysfunctional opinionated commenters that infect this thread with their loose thread ideologies.
A mathematical investigation was produced by the statisticians Pedro Santa Clara and Rossen Valkanov that exposes the superior performance of the stock markets under democrats. That this is but one example of the democrats superiority, as there is more.
Their study encompasses 80 years. Study demonstrates systematically and positively surprised by democratic policies. Comparing the stewardship of the two parties. They calculated each economic indicator as an annual average during the democrats and republicans of their economic stewardship of their 40 years each. Turns out to be a landslide for democrats providing beneficial returns to the nation. One example; Democrats presided over a very respectable average annual compound return of 9.60% during their 40 years where in as republicans averaged a dismal 0.58%.
Consider this; a 401K plan invested in stocks and had a value of $100,000 at the beginning of the 40 years. Democrats would accumulate in compound interest $ 3,912,210 where in as republicans would only produce $126,027 . Another example; IF an employee were to invest $5,000 per year into their 401K for 40 years in a democratic stewardship the employee would have $1,985,526 in the bank. Where as the republican would produce a dismal $224,375.
That republicans advocate that they are good for businesses is false as compared to the democrats
Another interesting fact emerges within the statistical study. The income gap between the 99% and the top 1% has widened considerably under republicans. Averaging .49% as compared to the democrats .41% That is to say under republicans the income gap in 40 years, widened by 19.6% and narrowed 16.4%. Resulting in a 36% difference.
LOL on debt republicans increased debt by 2.5 times greater than that of the democrats. Republicans $7.1 Trillion vs. the democrats $2.8 Trillion.
GOPs Self-Proclamation for economic dominance; in fact it is a misnomer to call the GOP a fiscal responsible party and or a smaller government, when in fact the contrary is true.
Obamas administration indicates he sought the great leaders on these issue. Eccles and FDR, Clinton and ONeill to do what is most productive for our nation.
Now pass on this one small example on an on, of the fallacies of the republicans erroneous policies and deceptions..
Until then "Happy Trails to you, until we meet again..

LOL now you are saying Texans are dumb if not dumber or dumbest for putting Perry in office. Well finally we have something we can almost agree on. I perceive that not all Texans are that dumb. As for your entitys blessing, try keeping to yourself. Did not work for Perry. Did it ? And as I observe 99% of your comments, does not do you any good either. Hey maybe you and Perry are calling the wrong number..LOL

Hey Defiant is this a relation of yours. Another ODD for anarchy.
Besara make ask what is ODD. Well my little one; Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) is a childhood disorder described by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) as an ongoing pattern ... Patterns that you and, I speculate, your relative seem to have been arrested in that childhood state. You know sort of like the Peter Pan syndrome.
Show me this isn't true and bring us some facts. Aparrently you did not or could not read the numbers I provided. If you did, comprehension was not avaiable, was it? Due to your being so ODD...

Good post.
When ObamaCare goes into full effect, it will reduce the income of about 30% of the workforce because they will get laid off and have to come back to work as part-timers, ineligible for any kind of benefits that they had before, because the smaller corporations and businesses simply cannot afford to pay their health insurance benefits mandated by ObamaCare. For example, some businesses with up to a hundred full-time employees will cut back to fifty full-time and fifty part-time employees, or maybe increase to 70 or 80 part-timers in order to keep their workforce at the same level that it was before ObamaCare.

#19229 Jul 18, 2013
Hiring seasonal and temporary employees as well as interns will be another way employers will get around ObamaCare. All of the loopholes will bring about large increases in full-time employment.

I totally agree with you in regard to Perry and his inability to become President. I feel that he has also been a poor governor for Texas. I was jubilant when I learned that he was not seeking another term; however, my jubilation was soon clouded by the realization that Israel is merely political posturing. I only hope that Israel recognizes him for what he is and doesn't give him any encouragement.

My Yellow...My Favorite
I received my first order today from metro style. For the price, this suit is perfect. Although my size is not available, this suit can be tailored. It's not lined, but didn't expect it to be for the price. With the right accessories, this suit will be one of my favorite summer leisure suits.

Tipped T-Strap Pump: Sexy t-strap and striking contrast coloring makes these shoes super stylish. They're made to match our Suit Separates Collection and look amazing with so much more!
These are really great for the price. They look taller than they really are because the ankle strap creates an illusion of a higher heel. I love that these come in wide sizes, which is a must because of my bunyon. The height is very easy to walk in, and I have walked more than half a mile at work in these shoes in one day with no problems. I liked them so much, I bought them in both colors!

Envelope Clutch: This have-to-have handbag is a super stylish accessory that goes with so many different outfits! Use the gold chain shoulder strap or tuck the chain inside and carry it as a clutch.
Buy 2 or more for just $44.99 each!
*Buy-2 Deal not available on markdown colors
Pretty In Deep Lilac
I purchased the clutch purse in deep lilac and it's a beautiful color. I already had a Jacket and high heel sandals in the deep lilac, but never purchased the purse until now. I'm real glad I finally did, because along with the jacket and high heel sandals it makes my outfit complete. I have many colors of these clutch purses I have purchased through the years from MetroStyle, and I just love them all. There a must have item if you want a well put together outfit. Great purchase! :)

Buddhism and the SupernaturalToday's Daily Dharma: There is a widely held misconception in the West that Buddhism was originally a humanistic movement that made no place for gods, goddesses, and spirit beings. This, however, is not the case. Buddhist cosmology from the outset envisioned the Buddha with a host of spirits and divinities who participated in his career and offered support to those on the Buddhist path. While the Buddha transmitted the wisdom and methods whereby his followers could attain enlightenment, he commissioned his supernatural aides to attend to his congregation's immediate needs for well-being and relief from suffering. -Miranda Shaw, "Mothers of Liberation" (Summer 2007) Read the complete article here.

Highland volleyball coach Beth Groshans wants to see her team maintain their aggressiveness and keep a killer instinct in matches.
Highland volleyball coach Beth Groshans wants to see her team maintain their aggressiveness and keep a killer instinct in matches.
That didn't exactly happen in the third set Tuesday, when Highland failed to sweep Clinton.
The Highland Cougars finally closed out the Clinton Cougars in the fourth to win, 25-21, 25-17, 25-23, 25-17.
"I was pleased the second half of the fourth set," Groshans said. "They overcame things and our offense and our talent kind of took over there and we just played a bit smarter and came up with some better shots."
Highland nearly swept Clinton in the third set, but errors proved detrimental and it whittled away at a 23-19 lead.
Clinton rallied six straight points, including a kill from Kassandra Prier and back-to-back errors allowed the visitors to force a fourth set.
At times Highland looked confused and out of position, which wasn't solely because of Clinton's attacks.
"We just had to switch some lineups and people weren't in their spots," Groshans said. "It threw us off and it shouldn't have because we're pretty used to playing them and we shouldn't have gotten so rattled.
"It was people in spots that have done fine in those spots and we just struggled."
Highland and Clinton played even in fourth set, with both teams tied 15-all. But Highland's serving separated it from Clinton late.
"We missed some serves but really that's what separated us," Groshans said. "Kendra (Ostendorf) had a run in the first set.
"Keeley (Schulz) had a run. We had different times where we were just really clicking and were hitting their zones. I'd just like to see a little bit more consistency."
Clinton played relatively clean in the first set, making very few errors until Ostendorf started serving. She finished with three aces and had several service points. Schulz added two aces and helped Highland pull away.
Highland's attack was still strong and balanced, with sophomore Katelyn Hasken finishing with a team-high 14 kills and Jen Lane adding nine.
Courtney Blair didn't play Tuesday as she sat out for rest.
"She has some soreness in her knee and stuff like that so we had her take off Monday and (Tuesday)," Groshans said. "We did it so that she can play Wednesday and then this weekend."
Highland has an important matchup against Arrowhead Conference and Region IV rival Sauk Valley tonight at 6 p.m.
"We told the girls that they should really have a chip on their shoulder," Groshans said. "We're still ranked third behind Sauk (in the Region IV) and we have had some close matches with a couple of teams.
Page 2 of 2 - "But we'll put that on the bulletin board and use it as motivation."

Olympic College volleyball coach Kaelea Makaiwi juggled her lineup to no avail as the Rangers lost to NWAACC North Division-leading Whatcom on Wednesday night, 30-19, 30-18, 26-30, 30-23.
OC (4-15, 1-6) dropped the first two games before finding the right combination in the third. Makaiwi said poor passing enabled the Orcas (12-10, 6-0) to take control in the fourth.
Amber Lyons had 15 assists for the Rangers, while Renee Blankenship had 10 digs. Brittni Featherstone led the team with six kills.
OC will be in action Friday at the Walla Walla Crossover tournament, playing three matches against Walla Walla, Tacoma and Lower Columbia.
