AUSTIN, TX -- Educational psychologist Richard Valencia's newest book, "Dismantling Contemporary Deficit Thinking," has garnered the 2011 Outstanding Book Award from the American Educational Research Association (AERA), with the awards committee describing the book as a "superlative treatment" of the topic of deficit thinking.
The AERA is the world's largest and most prominent professional organization for scholars of the education process and educational evaluation, and its Outstanding Book Award is deemed by many to be the top honor for authors of education-related publications.
Valencia, a professor in The University of Texas at Austin College of Education's Department of Educational Psychology, is one of the leading national authorities on "deficit thinking," an approach to academic failure that is based on racial and class bias.
"Deficit thinking blames the student, who is actually the 'victim' in this instance," said Valencia, "rather than looking at ways in which schools and education policies systematically impede the learning and success of poor students and students of color."
In his landmark book, he examines three current deficit-based approaches to student academic failure - the genetic pathology model, the culture of poverty model and the "at-risk" model, in which poor and ethnic minority students are pathologized and marginalized.
The book offers critiques and alternative explanations for the academic failure of so many of the nation's children as well as comprehensive critiques and anti-deficit thinking alternatives to the pseudoscience of deficit thinking.
Valencia also examines several promising, research-based anti-deficit thinking suggestions from the areas of teacher education, educational ethnological and educational leadership.
"Richard Valencia has unquestionably become the expert on critiquing deficit thinking in education and educational research," said Dr. James Joseph Scheurich, a professor in Texas A&M University's College of Education and Human Development. "While I highly prized his prior book on this subject, this new one will quickly take the prior one's favored place on my closest bookshelf and in the minds of my students."
Valencia's first book on the subject, "The Evolution of Deficit Thinking: Educational Thought and Practice" (1997), has attracted considerable interest from scholars around the world over the past decade and is considered a "classic" on the topic.
The AERA's Outstanding Book Award is given annually to acknowledge the year's best book-length publication in the area of education research and development - this year there were 25 nominations. To be considered for the award, a book must address research-based ways in which the education process can be improved.
Only two University of Texas at Austin faculty members have won the Outstanding Book Award since it was established in 1983 and both are in the College of Education.
In addition to Valencia, Dr. Angela Valenzuela, a professor in the Departments of Curriculum and Instruction as well as Educational Administration, was an award recipient.
"Dismantling Contemporary Deficit Thinking" also was nominated for the American Educational Studies Association Critics Book Award and University Co-operative Society Robert W. Hamilton Book Award.
Valencia's book "Chicano Students and the Courts: The Mexican American Legal Struggle for Educational Equality" won a 2010 University Co-operative Robert W. Hamilton Book Award and in early 2011, the third edition of his book "Chicano School Failure and Success: Past, Present and Future" was released.
Over the past 20 years since its initial release, "Chicano School Failure and Success" has become a foundation text in the area of Mexican American education.

What would you like to do?
Masturbation can trigger hair loss in certain people, however one must keep in mind, that masturbation is not the cause of it, ejaculation is the cause. Hence any kind of sexual activity that results in ejaculation can cause hair loss in certain individuals if it is over-indulged in.
So excessive masturbation can trigger this effect as it overloads the bloodstream with DHT (di-hydrotestosterone), that affect the hair follicles on the head.

One must also note that other factors can cause hair loss, such as stress.

Does hair straightening cause hair loss?
No. People spread around rumors saying that straightning your hair caused dry hair and you loose hair but it is not true. I have been straightening my hair for three years and… my hair is smooth and silky and I have not lost any hair. If you use hair spray before you straighten it helps. (MORE)

8 Powerful Foods that Promote Healthy Hair Growth
Unhealthy eating is a major hindrance to hair growth, as certain nutrient imbalances can greatly affect normal growth cycles leading to unwanted signs of hair loss. For longer…, naturally healthy hair, it's important to eat a variety of foods each day in order to get all the nutrients your body needs to grow hair. Here are eight superfoods that greatly promote hair growth from the inside out.[Carrots and carrot juice](http://nutrition.answers.com/reduce-illness/the-disease-fighting-power-of-carrots-and-carrot-juice) house exceptionally high levels of the powerful phytonutrient antioxidant beta-carotene, which is converted to vitamin A in the body. Regular consumption of vitamin A can greatly improve the appearance of your hair by lessening split ends, reducing the presence of dandruff, and enhancing the overall volume. You can obtain all the vitamin A you need by eating just two small carrots a day or drinking 3 ounces of fresh carrot juice.[Wild salmon](http://nutrition.answers.com/healthy-foods/the-nutritional-wonders-and-many-health-benefits-of-salmon) is an excellent source of the essential amino acids that support the structural integrity and healthy development of hair follicles. Deficiencies in these amino acids can cause hair strands to become extremely weak leading to excessive shedding and thinning. Salmon is also a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to boost the overall rate of hair growth. Since salmon houses relatively low levels of mercury, it's deemed safe for regular consumption.A cup of strawberries a day can do wonders for your hair. Strawberries are packed full of the potent water-soluble antioxidant vitamin C, which is a critical nutrient for growing hair. This vitamin specifically stimulates the production of collagen, an important structural component of protein that's responsible for building and maintaining strong, healthy hair follicles. Vitamin C deficiency can cause your hair to become weak and extremely prone to breakage, which can ultimately lead to hair loss.Sunflower seeds house large quantities of vitamin E, a powerful fat-soluble antioxidant that helps prevent free radical accumulation in the body. Free radical buildup has been shown to cause severe damage to hair follicles leading to hair loss. In addition to its effects on free radicals, vitamin E supports healthy blood circulation and delivery of vital nourishment to hair follicles thereby supporting growth. You can obtain over 80 percent of the vitamin E you need in a day by eating a 1/4-cup serving of sunflower seeds.[Green leafy veggies](http://nutrition.answers.com/healthy-foods/leafy-green-vegetables-the-healthiest-foods-in-the-world) are a potent source of B-complex vitamins, which your body needs in adequate quantities to grow healthy hair. The B vitamins that are especially beneficial for hair health include folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12 and biotin (vitamin BH). Collectively, the actions of these vitamins have been shown to prevent hair loss and encourage hair regrowth. Green leafy veggies are also rich in other hair-health promoting nutrients like beta-carotene, vitamin C and vitamin E.Lentils are by far one of the most valuable dietary sources of zinc, a vital antioxidant mineral that plays a key role in immunity and healthy hair. In fact, hair loss is one of the most common side effects of zinc deficiency. You can get an optimal amount of zinc by including just a cup of lentils into your daily eating plan. Lentils also supply healthy doses of the essential amino acids and nearly a day's worth of folate, which together support both the development and maintenance of long and strong locks.Brazil nuts are unbelievably high in selenium, an important antioxidant mineral that primarily works with vitamin C and vitamin E to offset the presence of hair-damaging free radicals in the body. Since selenium deficiency can greatly inhibit your hair's ability to grow, an adequate intake of this mineral is critical for the overall health of your hair. Amazingly, just one ounce of Brazil nuts contains over 700 percent of the daily recommended intake, which surely minimizes the likelihood of deficiency.Whole eggs contain a cocktail of nutrients that support good health and strong, fast-growing locks. While the whites of eggs contain all the essential amino acids necessary for building healthy hair follicles, the yolks are a valuable source of biotin, vitamin B12, vitamin A and selenium, all of which encourage hair growth while preventing unwanted hair loss. To avoid potential health risks linked to excess saturated fat and cholesterol intake, simply limit your consumption of egg yolks to 3-4 per week (["The Incredible Edible Egg Yolk: Nutritional Benefits of Eating Whole Eggs"](http://nutrition.answers.com/healthy-foods/the-incredible-edible-egg-yolk-nutritional-benefits-of-eating-whole-eggs)).The process of hair growth is quite complex, as hair loss is largely influenced by a number of inevitable factors like genetics, aging and disease. Still, in countless cases, poor diet is a major culprit. For fast-growing, naturally healthy hair start by assessing your eating patterns and then make an all-out effort to improve them with these and other nutrient-rich foods. (MORE)
Hair Loss; Early Intervention is Crucial
During life, a man's scalp and hair goes through a cycle of growth and shedding. Being able to understand the hair growth cycle will help to stop the causes early, and slow th…e process of hair loss.Androgenic alopecia is the technical term for [male pattern baldness ](http://menshair.answers.com/hair-loss/male-pattern-baldness-do-you-have-these-signs). It occurs because the hair follicles get smaller and smaller with age. It affects up to 70% of men at some point in life. Usually the hairline starts to recede on top and at the temples, and the hair thins at the crown as well. The causes are both genetic factors and environmental factors. This process has usually begun by the time the man is 30. If this hair loss process is caught early enough, there are ways to save the remaining hair from falling out, and you can possibly recover some of the hair loss.There are many factors that contribute to hair loss in men. Malnutrition is one of the easiest factors to correct. When the body is deficient of necessary nutrients, the scalp and hair follicles can be affected. Lack of exercise can cause the blood flow to the scalp to diminish, discouraging growth. Different diseases such as psoriasis, dermatitis, thyroid disorder and eczema can cause unwanted hair loss.Some medications used to treat illnesses can cause hair loss as well. Stress and emotional strain affect the amount of oxygen and nutrients that go to our hair follicles to produce the hair. Using too many chemicals on the hair or too much heat damage will cause hair to break and become thin or fall out.Depending on the region, the climate can be to blame for hair loss. Desalinated water, which is seawater in which the salt has been removed, is damaging to the hair and scalp. Water that has been purified using chlorine can be damaging as well, as it also dries out the scalp and hair, causing breakage. Heat from the sun will dry out the hair and follicles, causing hair loss. Going from extreme heat into air conditioned areas will also cause the hair and scalp to dry out.If caught early enough, there are two main medications on the market that will help prevent hair loss. Minoxidil, or [Rogaine ](http://menshair.answers.com/hair-loss/the-straight-truth-about-rogaine), is a cream or mousse that is applied to the scalp. It is applied twice every day, so when you stop using the product, your hair loss will begin to reoccur. It enlarges hair follicles and stimulates the hair growth. This process can take months before you see results so patience and persistence pay off.Another medication is Propecia and comes in a pill form. Propecia lowers the DHT level which is a hormone that leads to hair loss. An effective way to fight male pattern baldness is to use both medications simultaneously, and the best factor is to start treating it early.Bald spot hiding strategies almost always backfire. Instead of making your thin spots less noticeable, you end up drawing attention to the fact that your losing your hair. This where a good barber or hairdresser is worth their pay, as they know how to design a style that maximizes your strengths.Early intervention is crucial to regaining the hair that has been lost. There are so many factors such as environmental factors, universal factors and lifestyle factors that all lead to normal hair loss. Early prevention attempts can help to slow down the hair loss process, and may, in some cases completely turn it around, and lead to new hair regrowth. (MORE)
When a Woman Loses Her Hair
Hair, and long flowing hair in particular, has been associated with femininity since the beginning of legend and art if not the beginning of time. Lady Godiva's long hair is g…iven even greater importance than her nudity in many depictions. Alexandre Cabanel's Birth of Venus shows the awakening goddess with her hair approaching her knees.Experiencing hair loss is a devastating process for many women and can make a woman feel that she is losing a sense of her femininity. Hair loss stems from a variety of health issues and can often be difficult to diagnose, so it is important to research the topic thoroughly and take your own medical history into account.We all lose hair ? an estimated 50 to 100 strands of hair each day. If you don?t wash your hair every day, then on days you do you can lose up to 250 strands. And there will be some points in your life when you will lose more hair, such as after giving birth.Each hair grows in a cycle of anywhere from two to six years. At that point, the hair will be pushed out and a new hair will grow in its place. During pregnancy, your hair will normally become very thick and lustrous because your hormones are extending your normal hair-growth cycle. Once you give birth and your estrogen levels drop, you may suddenly lose all the hair that was not lost during the previous nine months. This hair loss is temporary, and you will soon be back to your normal hair-growth cycle.If you are experiencing excessive hair loss not associated with pregnancy, you should go to your doctor right away. Hair loss in women can be caused by many disorders and illnesses including diabetes, thyroid disorders, fungal or bacterial infections, autoimmune disorders, vitamin deficiencies and excesses, and skin conditions including psoriasis. Most of these conditions are treatable. Get them discovered and treated early to quickly find your way back to good health.Once you have ruled out illness as a reason for your hair loss, you can look at some other possible reasons. Hair loss can be caused by excessive styling, chemical products or even by keeping your hair in a too-tight hairstyle ? ponytail or cornrows, for example. If you are in the habit of pulling your hair into tight styles, ease off and you may well find your hair growing back over the next few months.Hair loss can occur after you go through a physical stressor. You may lose hair after surgery, after an accident or even after rapid weight loss. This hair loss will likely be very sudden, possibly occurring weeks after the event, but your hair should grow back when you recover from that stressful occurrence. Chronic stress, too, can result in hair loss. If you have so much stress in your everyday life that your hair is falling out, other areas of your health will also be affected. You will have to learn how to manage the stress better or change your life in order to reduce the constant stress. Otherwise you risk more health troubles than bald spots.What you see happening on the outside of your body has its roots on the inside. Pay close attention to your hair, skin and nails because they are constantly telling you about your inner health.Hair loss in women is usually temporary, caused by factors that can be reversed. Finding the reason for your hair loss is the important first step. After you discover the reason, you can take steps toward correcting it. Before long your hair will be thick and lustrous again.

TSC Ratings' Updates: Sears
(CSE), which provides loans to small and medium-sized businesses, from hold to sell, driven by its generally disappointing historical performance in the stock itself, deteriorating net income, generally weak debt management, disappointing return on equity and feeble growth in its earnings per share.Net income decreased by 71.5% since the same quarter last year, from $28.3 million to $8.1 million, underperforming both the S&P 500 and the REITs industry. The debt-to-equity ratio is very high at 3.74 and currently higher than the industry average, implying very poor management of debt levels within the company. Current return on equity is lower than its ROE from the same quarter one year prior, a clear sign of weakness within the company, and on the basis of ROE, CapitalSource underperforms both the S&P 500 and the industry. Earnings per share have declined steeply, by 80%, in the most recent quarter compared with the same quarter a year ago. The company has reported a trend of declining earnings per share over the past two years, but the consensus estimate suggests that this trend should reverse in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, CapitalSource reported lower earnings of 96 cents vs. $1.66 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings to $1.25. Shares are down 74.4% on the year, underperforming the S&P 500. Despite the heavy decline in its share price, this stock is still more expensive (when compared to its current earnings) than most other companies in its industry.The following ratings changes were generated on Monday, Dec. 8.

text: Introduction This is not a homework or coursework question (if it were it would be of the project type), and I am looking for hints not spoilers. Hi, I recently passed by kepler's laws again in a science class (this time earth science), and am concurrently taking calculus in my math class. I realized that my current knowledge of calculus should let me be able to re-find kepler's laws (or show equivalence to newton's laws) - for kepler's first law, I should be able to prove (with newton's second law) that the elliptical orbit described is consistent. For his second law, I should be able to use polar integration to complete the consistency proof. As for the third, I haven't had any ideas, but my problems are really with where to start. 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data I contacted my math teacher with this question, and we had a short discussion, with my teacher suggesting I get data of planetary locations over time. I searched for these, with no avail (I am not looking for conclusions - which are all I could seemingly find). I'm trying to understand kepler's first law and how it relates to newton's laws - but I do realize some problems. Since initial velocity (and position) must be known in order to determine the elliptical path, one must have these accounted for - and I have no idea how to do that. I need hints, and if possible, data. I do not want a result, or work and a result, because I want to in a sense "repioneer" this - the thinking that is involved with creating an idea previously unknown to one differs from that of learning about an idea. tl;dr:I am trying to reconstruct Newton's derivation of Kepler's laws, and am stuck on how to translate newton's laws into kepler's first law. I need hints, and if possible, data. 2. Relevant equations newton's second law: f=ma newton's gravitational law:f=g(m_1m_2)/(r^2) kepler's 3 laws 3. The attempt at a solution I'm not sure where to start. I know that once I get an idea I will break motion into x and y axis (put in parametric form), and try to convert to polar form as well. I am guessing I will encounter simple differential equations.

Toronto duo Twist are musician Laura Hermiston and Holy Fuck's Brian Borcherdt, formed two years or so ago. Laura writes the songs, which have a '60s/'70s folk-rock vibe, and Borcherdt adds just enough grit in the production. It's certainly in the Mazzy Star system. Twist's new single, "Albequerque" is out next week and you can listen to it, plus check out a couple other songs and videos, below.
Twist will be crossing the Canadian border this weekend for a few Northeast shows, including two in NYC: Baby's All Right on Sunday (3/1) with LA band Corners, Brooklyn's Roya and DJ Alix Brown, and then Shea Stadium on March 6 with Your 33 Black Angels, Wild Bore, and Moon Tower. In between those two NYC shows, Twist will hit Boston on March 3, venue still TBA.

METZ have announced details of their second album, METZ II, which will be out May 5 via Sub Pop. (Pre-order yours.) They've shared a song from it as well, "Acetate," which you can listen to while you watch the band's friend Travis Millard make graphic-designed pancakes for his dog Rodney. They say it's "not the video" but it's more of one than most songs get these days, and is worth watching. The song's a real ripper too, as you'd expect from METZ. Watch it below.
The band are touring this spring, and dates include two stops in NYC: Bowery Ballroom on May 26 and Music Hall of Williamsburg on May 27. Both dates, and much of the tour, are with FIDLAR making lower case letters obselete for much of April and May. Tickets for both NYC shows go on sale Friday (2/20) at noon with an AmEx presale beginning Wednesday at noon.
In other news, METZ's Alex Edkins has teamed with Holy Fuck's Brian Borcherdt and Constantines' Doug MacGregor for a new Canadian supergroup called LIDS. Their debut 7" is titled "Sarsfest" and will be out March 17 via Toronto label Telephone Explosion. You can stream that below.
All dates are listed, along with the LP art, tracklist and "Acetate" video, below...

The fifth annual Brooklyn Rock Lottery took place on Saturday (12/6) at Baby's All Right. Members of bands convened that morning, with names being drawn out of a hat by five drummers to make the ad-hoc bands, who then spent the rest of the day writing and rehearsing original songs that would be performed that night at the venue. It was a sold out show and proceeds from the evening went to the Harmony Program, "a non-profit organization that brings after school music programs to communities with limited access to instrumental music education." We've got pictures from the whole day, rehearsals and everything, in this post
I've been to a few of the past Rock Lotteries and this was by far the most stacked line-up of participating musicians which also yielded some good music that worked beyond the novelty of seeing these supergroups. (It was also a lot of fun.) The luck of the draw also gave us some strange/awesome bands: LOVVLIFE featured four bassists (from Parquet Courts, Mutilation Rites, St. Lucia and more) which made for a lot of "could I get more bass in the monitor" jokes as well as a cover of Spinal Tap's "Big Bottom."
The DMV (Dave Matthew's Vibe) featured Rick Froberg (Obits, Drive Like Jehu), Drew Citron (Beverly), and Annie Hart (Au Revoir Simone). They worked up a krauty vibe and I'd go see them play again if they were a real band. And TBOI (The Beatles on iTunes), which featured Dismemberment Plan's Travis Morrison and members of So So Glos, Jukebox the Ghost and Wet Illustrated, pretty much played like a real band with songs that some "real" bands probably would've gladly had in their arsenal.
The evening began and finished with the two most eclectic groups. Fraud Stewart included members of TEEN, Spirit Family Reunion, Crocodiles, Sebadoh and the styles of their songs varied depending on who was singing; and then Friend of a Friend, which included Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Brian Chase, trumpeter Carter Yasutake, cellist Julia Kent, marimba player Mauro Refosco and Neighbors' Noah Stitelman, finished the evening with a cohesive-but-avant-garde pop set that would've been at home at The Stone.
Hosting the evening was Les Savy Fav's Tim Harrington who interviewed the bands, helped give away raffle prizes (he made winners rub noses and other body parts with him) and also made videos of him singing long versions of "Jingle Bells" and "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall" and generally yukked it up.

Brooklyn Rock Lottery 5 happening at Baby's w/ mems of Drive Like Jehu, YYYs, D-Plan, Parquet Courts & more
The fifth annual Brooklyn Rock Lottery is taking place this year on December 6 at Baby's All Right. In case you're not already familiar, here's the premise:
The Rock Lottery premise is simple, but effective. Twenty-five hand picked musicians meet at 10:00AM at the evenings performance venue. These volunteers are organized into five groups through a lottery-based chance selection. The five separate groups are then released to practice at different locations. The musicians have twelve hours to create a band name and three to five songs (with a one cover-song limit). The groups will then perform what they have created that evening in front of a waiting audience.This year's lineup includes members of Drive Like Jehu, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Dismemberment Plan, Parquet Courts and more, and looks like this:
Annie Hart (Au Revoir Simone)Tickets are on sale now, and all proceeds this year go to Harmony Program, "a non-profit organization that brings after school music programs to communities with limited access to instrumental music education."

Toronto indie rock four-piece Rituals, who fellow Toronto band Greys are fans of, released their newest EP, Mesmerized, earlier this year. It's a solid 7-song collection with hints of post-punk and shoegaze, and they've just made a video for one of its standout tracks, "Our Blood," which makes its premiere in this post. Check it out, along with a stream of the entire EP, below.
Rituals will be heading to NYC this week for two shows with another Toronto band, Dusted, the new-ish project of Holy Fuck's Brian Borcherdt. Those shows happen on August 29 at Shea Stadium with Steel Phantoms and Lurve and August 30 at Cake Shop with LOUD Brooklyn rockers Bambara (for whom the show is an LP release) and Rarechild. Rituals' only other date at the moment is a hometown show in September with Austra.
You can also catch Bambara on Tuesday (8/27) at 285 Kent with Baby Birds Don't Drink Milk, Guerilla Toss, and Advaeta. Tickets for that show are on sale now.

Holy Fuck @ LPR, 9/18/2010 (more by Andrew St. Clair)
Toronto's Holy Fuck have been quiet of late, with just a few live dates (including some with Squarepusher last year) and side project Dusted to speak of. The video for "Red Lights" from Holy Fuck's 2010's Latin is below.
There's been no news from their camp in some time, apart from "new album in progress," but, in possibly related news, a band called "Holy Fun" is listed as playing Death by Audio this Saturday (1/12). The rest of the line-up is Pigeons, Romantic States, and Smoke Bellow.

Dusted streaming their new LP, 'Total Dust' (which is out now), playing Cake Shop before Glasslands (updated dates)
by Andrew Sacher
Dusted (the new project led by Holy Fuck's Brian Borcherdt) released their debut LP, Total Dust, this week (7/10) via Polyvinyl. You've already heard the single, "(Into The) Atmosphere," and if you liked that song, you'll enjoy the whole record, which pretty much follows suit. It's mainly a collection of sweet-voiced indie pop with bright clean tones and a backgrounded drum machine. But it's not just a pop record -- some of the songs (especially the album's opening track "All Comes Down") drift towards haunting slowcore, and Brian often coats his voice in a light distortion and can give his guitar an even thicker one. You can stream the entire album below.
As mentioned, Dusted will be in NYC for a show at Glasslands on Sunday (7/15) (tickets), but since we last spoke, Dusted announced a NYC show which happens even sooner than that. They'll play Cake Shop on Thursday (7/12) with Happy New Year and one more TBA.
A list of updated dates and the album stream are below...

Squarepusher adds T5 date to tour (dates); Mount Kimbie signed to Warp; Bonobo and Holy Fuck playing Camp Bisco
by Andrew Sacher
Back in May, drill & bass master Squarepusher announced a North American tour which included a TBA NYC show set to happen on October 30. Well it turns out the NYC show will actually be on November 1 and it happens at Terminal 5 with a great list of openers; Bonobo (DJ), Holy Fuck, and Mount Kimbie. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (6/29) at noon with an AmEx presale starting today (6/27) at noon. All Squarepusher dates are listed below.
Squarepusher released his new album, Ufabulum, in May and it's a pretty solid one. It opens with "4001," which is just about the only song that sounds like classic Squarepusher, and is then followed by, "Unreal Square," which brings in a bit of brostep bass wobble. The rest of the album sees Squarepusher diving into nutty jazz fusion and unstoppable breakbeats. You can stream three of its tracks below.
Speaking of Mount Kimbie, they've signed to Warp, the label which Squarepusher also calls home, and currently at work on their second album which will be released on the label. The Terminal 5 show appears to be their only announced North American date at the moment.
Holy Fuck and Bonobo will be in NY even sooner for Camp Bisco, which goes down from July 12-14 at Indian Lookout Country Club in Mariaville, NY. They'll be joining a lineup which includes Tycho, Simian Mobile Disco, Skrillex, Amon Tobin ISAM, Big Boi, Crystal Castles, Yacht, Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire, Shigeto, FaltyDL, Thundercat, and more. Tickets for the festival are still available. The full lineup is listed below.
In related news, You can also catch Holy Fuck frontman Brian Borcherdt in NYC right after Bisco with his new project, Dusted, who play Glasslands on July 15. Tickets for that show are still available.

Dusted, a duo consisting of Brian Borcherdt (Holy Fuck) and Leon Taheny (Final Fantasy, Rituals, Bruce Peninsula), are set to release their debut LP, Total Dust, on July 10 via Polyvinyl in the US and worldwide and on Hand Drawn Dracula in their home country of Canada. The first track revealed from that album, "(Into The) Atmosphere" is far different than the work Brian did in Holy Fuck and sounds more like a mid-2000s Arts & Crafts band and also a bit like Arm's Way-era Islands. It's a catchy tune, falling just below the 3 minute mark, and you can check it out below, along with a teaser video for the album.
Dusted are currently on tour with A Place To Bury Strangers. They won't be at APTBS' NYC show (7/27 at MHOW) but they just announced their own NYC show, which goes down on July 15 at Glasslands. Tickets for that show are on sale now.
All dates are listed below, along with the song stream and album trailer...

DOWNLOAD: SBTRKT - "Wildfire" (Drumma Boy remix ft. Shabazz Palaces) (MP3)
Back in June, we announced the killer initial lineup for Moogfest 2011 (October 28, 29, 30). That lineup just got even better with additions including TV on the Radio, Special Disco Version featuring James Murphy and Pat Mahoney, St. Vincent, SBTRKT, Flying Lotus, YACHT, John Maus, Araabmuzik Baths, Zomby, Active Child and more. It was also announced that Brian Eno, part of the initial lineup, will be presenting Brian Eno's 77 Million Paintings and "Illustrated Talks" as part of this year's fest.

Shabazz Palaces is also featured on the remix (compare that to Drake's version). Grab the track above via Gorilla vs Bear. Shabazz wrote on Facebook today, "Besides the release of Black Up, I don't think I've seen one article on here create such a surge of activity as this Wildfire Remix has. Amazing."

Holy Fuck
Brooklyn-based Twin Shadow takes the stage first at Le Poisson Rouge Saturday night (9/18), where George Lewis, Jr., mastermind behind Twin Shadow, seems to already have a following. Playing songs off their first album Forget, Twin Shadow seems to have found the portal to the 80's, taking the smoothest beats and synth riffs and totally reinventing the wheel for the here and now, while letting obvious 80's influences shine through. Lewis's vocal style is low and nonchalant but on certain choruses and words, the texture goes way up, almost bordering on screamo, and returns to melodic utterances almost as quickly as it once rose. Someone in the audience shouts for an encore, but they'll just have to wait until Twin Shadow headlines their own show. Twin Shadow is now on tour with Jamie Lidell.
Houston, TX band Indian Jewelry commandeers the LPR stage shortly after Twin Shadow, laying down some ground rules for watching their set: "No flash photography. It makes us look awful. Think about it," along with "No texting on your fucking phones." Opening their set with a completely dark stage, the lighting situation quickly turns to something dangerous for one with epilepsy. Flashing strobe light and indiscernible images projected on a screen complete the visual effects, while bass and reverb boom from the speakers. Using audio effects like consistently grinding electronic bass and guitar layered over an evacuation-type alarm sound with distorted lyrics floating overhead is typical of this band's style, who not only provide a creative visual show but an introspective sound show as well.
The most impressive thing about "electronic" band Holy Fuck is that the multitude of sound pouring off the LPR stage is house-made. While maintaining dance-worthy rhythms and pulses of sound via multiple (toy) keyboards, bass, and drums, keyboardist Brian Borcherdt rips ribbons of 35 mm film through a film synchronizer. This in turn produces an awesome visual element to the show while providing rhythmic sound scratches that are the life and soul of the audio element. The four members come together on stage like some crazy supercomputer from the future, and rock out like madmen using sound in innovative ways to create real-deal compositions that are emotionally and aurally appealing. Because the material presented is all created organically, the live show is more visually engaging, with Borcherdt and fellow keyboardist Graham Walsh busy playing their multiple instruments, turning dials, flipping switches, and pulsing physically with the beats, while Matt Schulz and Matt McQuaid keep things flowing with drums and bass, respectively. Hailed for their innovative methods and quality output, Holy Fuck is keeping the love alive with a US tour promoting their latest release, Latin, that extends through late October.

Twin Shadow @ Mercury Lounge
This weekend Holy Fuck (who were last in NYC to play Siren) will join a slew of notables to play Reading/Leeds Festivals in the UK, but shortly after, the band will skip back across the pond to kick off a North American tour that hits Le Poisson Rouge in NYC on 9/18 with Twin Shadow and Indian Jewelry. Tickets are on sale. The show is one date of a longer tour that will lead them through most of October.
Before that, Twin Shadow will play another NYC area show in preparation of the new LP due on 9/28 via Terrible Records. Look for them to headline Glasslands on 9/11 with Zambri, My Gold Mask, Distractions, Machu Picchu. Tickets are on sale.
Twin Shadow played Mercury Lounge on 8/17 with Sean Bones and New Numbers who open for Robbers on High Street at Rock Shop on August 28th) and You Can Be A Wesley. More pics from that show (none of YCBAW though), a NSFW video of Twin Shadow's "Slow" and tour dates, are below...

Siren Fest 2010 in pictures (part 3) (Holy Fuck, the rest of the Stillwell Stage, more Ted Leo, Mabee & more)
Stillwell Stage photos by Dominick Mastrangelo
"To close out the night, fans had the option of checking out Matt and Kim at the main stage or Holy Fuck at the alternate stage. The choice was clear, I went with the latter, and they easily turned out to be my favorite performance of the night. Their weird, intellectualized sound came to the forefront for the masses to witness firsthand and it's quite the process. With film reels rolling and making glorious sounds, lead singer Brian Borcherdt sporadically took the mic, shoved it between his teeth, and danced just as hard as any of the onlookers. It was clearly the most-lively show of the night. Holy Fuck as a satisfying headliner for the bill was a question on many people's minds, so the band had some expectations to live up to, but they totally thrived on those exact expectations and exceeded them tenfold. Even though the event was fully sponsored/curated, Holy Fuck performed in all aspects with the heart of any DIY performer." [Neon Musical Insight]Our first set of Siren Festival pictures had a bit from both stages. Then came the main stage with some bonus shots of Matt & Kim in the ocean. We conclude with all the bands from the Stillwell Stage, with some more of Ted Leo from the main stage, and one more bonus shot of Matt & friends in the ocean, below...

Roky Erickson/Okkervil River, Local Natives, Think About Life, Duchess Says, others @ Galaxy Room (BV/MfM day party) - pics
words by Bill Pearis & (most of the) photos by Tim Griffin
Will Sheff & Roky Erickson
"Welcome to Montreal -- how do you like the Weather?" - Martin Cesar, Think About Life.
After three lovely days of sunny, mild weather, the skies went grey and cold for the last day of SXSW, Saturday, March 20th, with temperatures dropping to around 45 degrees. Almost no one seemed prepared for it, judging by the throngs of under-dressed shivering all over town. With a lot of the Austin venues being outdoor, it especially hurt. Our final party of a very busy week of parties was a free badge-less official SXSW event that we did with the M for Montreal folks, at the two-stage Galaxy Room (formerly Radio Room & Bourbon Rocks). The main stage was outside -- under a tent, which helped just a little -- and while temperatures were low, spirits were high and it was maybe the most fun I had all week.
My favorite set of the day came early. Think About Life are so much fun live, so much genuine positivity, it's hard to be in a bad mood with them on stage. An instant hangover cure. I think this was the first time a lot of the audience had ever seen them play, if the number of people who asked me who they were was any indication. At one point singer Martin Cesar left the stage as if their set was over, only to appear in the middle of the crowd dancing, hyping people up. That they didn't do "Johanna" is my only complaint. NYers can see them on April 27 when Think About Life play Mercury Lounge. It's part of a fairly extensive U.S. tour, do go see them.
I was also super-pumped to see The Besnard Lakes whose new album The Besnard Lakes Are the Roaring Night is pretty fantastic. Specifically, I wanted to hear its epic opener, "Like the Ocean, Like the Innocent," and have it knock me back. Like a lot of Montreal bands, The Besnard Lakes' line-up ebbs and flows. Theirs does so around the core of Jace Lasek and Olga Goreas. I've seen them seven strong before, but here they were a lean mean quartet and did not disappoint. They're on tour in May, including a 5/28 show at Bowery Ballroom.
Duchess Says
Another set I knew would be fun was Montreal's Duchess Says who played one of our CMJ day parties last year. While their more aggressive take on Devo-style protopunk is fun, it's all about singer Annie Claude who looks very cute and innocent... until the music starts. She shrieks, jumps in the audience, tackles people, pulls them to the floor, and causes general mayhem. It's more mischief than menace though. There are lots of other singers who do similar things, but never anything quite like her. After you've seen them once, part of the fun is watching other people experience them for the first time. The inside room was packed to the gills (it was warmer there). My favorite part of the show had her sitting down in the middle of the audience, methodically pulling people down with her, draping their arms over her into a giant pile of people. There's video at the bottom of this post.
The other major highlight for me was Roky Erickson with Okkervill River. I'd never seen him before and this was certainly a great live introduction to someone whose music I've loved for a long time. Will Sheff produced Roky's new album (first in 14 years) and Okkervill was his backing band on it, so the set was tight, rocking and just sounded fantastic. Roky was in great form too, and we got a few 13th Floor Elevators nuggets in there, as well as "Starry Eyes," one of my favorites of his solo material. They tour in May including a show at Webster Hall.
And there was lots more: the great Wye Oak kicked off the party with a lovely set despite cold fingers; Jason Collett was a class act with superbly-crafted country-pop (see video of his set below); Crystal Antlers filled in for BEAST who couldn't make it; Andrew WK was in full Meatloaf mode with a set of piano ballads; Plants and Animals were lush and harmony-laden; metal legends Voivod showed they've still got it; and a percussion-heavy set from L.A.'s Local Natives was probably the biggest draw of the day -- they were excellent.
Local Natives
Somehow I entirely missed sets by Holy Fuck (who I heard were great) and Suckers (who I've seen before many times here in NYC). A last minute addition, Nardwuar was there too, providing funny, heavily-researched band introductions as only he can. It was a great, if cold, day. Stay tuned for his video interview of Will and Roky.
Thanks to everyone who helped put this all together, and to our sponsors. More pictures and videos from the whole day below...

Andrew WK went from headlining Irving Plaza in NYC straight to Texas for a full schedule of SXSW shows before he left for Mexico where he played MtyMx. Then, unlike Andrew Frisicano (who went from NY to Austin to Mexico, then back to Austin and is now in Tennessee), Andrew WK came back to NYC before heading to Tennessee (where he performs at set at the Big Ears fest Friday night with the Calder Quartet) (and gives a talk there on Saturday).
Tonight (3/25), Andrew WK will appear at the Best Buy in Union Square...
"I have an in-store autograph signing at BEST BUY in Union Square tonight. It's at 8pm, on 14th street, at the corner of 4th Avenue. I'm giving away limited edition 7" records, color 8x10 photos, and posters. - Andrew WKOne of Andrew WK's SXSW shows was our Saturday BV/M For Montreal day party at Galaxy Room where he played a solo piano set after Voivod played a full legendary set of metal after Holy Fuck played their set of none of the above. All three bands were introduced by our special guest host Nardwuar who actually played a set at the Mint records showcase with Andrew on a previous day of the festival. I won't say too much more about that because we have a full post on the M For Montreal day coming, but some pictures and Nardwuar-filled videos of everything mentioned so far are below...

For those in NYC, there's no news of a show yet, but they have put out an MP3 for the song "Latin America," off the new record, which you can get above. The disc comes out May 11th on Young Turks/XL Recordings.
All Austin dates (their only North American shows currently) are below...

It is very flavorful on it's own, though. Be sure to use high-quality enchilada sauce, as some brands can be greasy. I like to add other veggies in sometimes, such as carrots and squash.

Very dark absurdist drama. The actresses were excellent in how they played their roles: each stayed within the narrow bounds of their character. An hour was about right.

This is a provocative show - can't really say "liked" or "loved", but it it is thought provoking and often laugh-out-loud funny. An interesting aspect is the repeated costume changes of "Emma", the employee, in a series of meetings ovr a period...

Tightly scripted and acted with good nuance. Also thought the stark stage setting and lighting complemented and added to the theme of the play.

Great acting but only so-so play. Starts off well, but doesn't really go anywhere. Starts to feel like a too long SNL skit -- funny parody that just keeps getting more and more exaggerated and going on and on without ever adding anything new past...continued

If you're looking for a simple whey protein to add to food or drinks, this is it. I didn't want one of those post-workout drinks that has tons of additives, I wanted to be able to actually read and understand the ingredient list. This has two: whey protein and soy lecithin for mixability. Bonus, iHerb got this to me super quick!

Matilda or Cecelia which should I get rid of?
I love Matilda I'm not a fan of nick bands but If we do use one it would probably be Tilda, tilly or Tildy, I like that its not extremely popular but I hate the nick name Mattie
I also love Cecelia. If we used a nick name it would be Celia or Cela (see-la) but I wonder if a child would have trouble pronouncing a name so s heavy and I wonder If maybe Matilda is a bit more unique
Our other kids are Izabella, Holden and Sawyer
June 17th, 2013 09:51 AM #3
I've never actually met a Cecelia or Matilda in real life, so they're both unique to me. They have a bit of a different feeling, with Matilda bringing to mind the story by Roald Dahl... so I think of a slightly mischievous, smart girl. Cecilia is a bit more refined and chic to me, especially with the nn Celia. Whether or not the child could pronounce the name just depends on the child. I couldn't pronounce my brother's name until I was about 4 (his name is Devin), and it's not a name that seems particularly difficult...INTP Anthropologist Living in the centre of China, married to a Persian, and just enjoying a completely unpredictable life

Both names are beautiful but I think I slightly prefer Matilda over Cecelia. I don't like Mattie either but I think Tilly is so cute.
I asked my 2.5 year old to say both name and she just had trouble with the "L's" not really the "S's". Maybe you could ask your other children to say the names and see how they say them.

My ob/gyn office first noticed my baby's IUGR at my 25 week visit, but I have a suspicion she knew there was a problem earlier than that. The reason I say this is because she came into the room right off the bat asking if I went to the hospital recently to check the heart of the baby and I said no that the last time I went to the hospital it was for the routine 20 week growth scan, and she said that the hospital couldn't see the heart because baby was covering heart with arms. So she had her tech check the heart as well as measure the baby, and then it was discovered that the baby was not proportionate, at 25 weeks he was measuring at 24 weeks for bpd, 23 weeks for hc, 22 weeks for femur, and 21 weeks for ac. I think she noticed there was a problem at my 21 week appointment when she just did two measurements but didn't say anything about it.
So I'm assuming the IUGR was early onset especially since the ac stopped growing at 21 weeks. Actually I felt something was wrong from my appointment at six weeks when they said embryo was two days behind. And three days behind at 8 weeks, and 6 days behind at 20 week hospital growth scan. It is motherly instinct.
There was always good fluid measurement, dopplers were good at all appointments, heart rate was good. With me, I never had high blood pressure, no protein in urine, negative for GD and preeclamptic tests which I did a day before the baby needed to be delivered. Baby was delivered because there was absent flow in cord and heart rate dropped. If i wasnt being monitored in the hospital, baby would have died. He was born at 32 weeks at 2 lb 5 oz. It has been a week since his birth and he is now 2 lb 6 oz, 16 inches. Doctor has no idea what happened, and not able to list possible causes. I'm waiting for pathology reports on placenta but it will take weeks. Does anybody know what could have happened?

Jumpstart for Juniors
The Jumpstart for Juniors program will provide students with the opportunity to gain invaluable investigative skills in the summer after their junior year. These funds may be used to continue an established, ongoing independent research project under the supervision of a faculty mentor or to gather necessary data prior to embarking on a senior thesis or other significant independent research project.
Applications are due Tuesday, March 15, 2016. Student budgets of up to $1000 will be considered. Mentors of Junior Jumpstart grant recipients will receive $1000 that will be paid into the faculty member's research account and cannot be taken as salary.
Current juniors already working with a faculty mentor may apply here (after reading the Application Components below)
Application Components
Please complete the following and combine in one .pdf document in preparation for electronic submission:
- Proposal (1 page limit): include statement of importance, background, hypotheses, methodology and continued research plans
- Budget
Letter of Recommendation
In addition, your faculty research advisor must separately submit a supporting letter of recommendation on your behalf. It is your responsibility that this letter be submitted to CURF no later than midnight on March 15, 2016. In this letter, your advisor should comment on the project's feasibility and the adequacy of your preparation to complete it, describe the extent of the your contribution in formulating the project, detail what supplies and/or support they are able to provide to ensure project completion, and outline the active ways in which they will mentor you during the research process (both in summer and beyond)
Please request the letter as soon as possible from your faculty research advisor via the Recommendation Request Form, and inform your faculty research advisor whether you have chosen to keep their letter confidential and waive your right of access to it.
Juniors who are not yet working with a faculty mentor and/or who do not have a project proposal are welcome to apply. They should first contact an appropriate faculty member and secure their support to apply for Jumpstart. Dr. Ann Vernon-Grey of CURF is available for consultations on how to identify and contact potential research mentors (call 215-746-6488 for appointments). The student will then submit an application in conjunction with the faculty mentor, who will provide a project proposal summary.
Types of expense to which the funds may be applied include travel to libraries, museums, archives, and research sites; living expenses that would enable the student to remain at the University during the summer and research equipment and supplies. (Reimbursement of living expenses may be taxable.) Items that cost $500 or more with a useful life of one year or more must be purchased with a University purchase requisition and will remain the property of the University.
Project proposals will be evaluated by a faculty committee designated by CURF and selected for funding based on representation of original research allowing student to make a significant contribution to knowledge, conceptual clarity, and potential for continued research involvement.
Undergraduates receiving this funding are expected to present a poster at two designated CURF events and submit a research summary suitable for posting on CURF's website. The summary should describe the project's goals and content, what the student learned through the research experience and how participating in this research project contributed to the educational experience.

Fed Releasing Minutes Early Due To Early Release To Congressional Staffers And Lobbyists
This shocker just hit the tape:
So the Fed now pre-releases data to US politicians ahead of everyone else. What else does the Fed leak to those for whom frontrunning is still legal? And as if we needed more confirmation, the market is now officially a complete circus.
Oops. The Federal Reserve accidentally emailed the minutes from its March meeting to about 100 people a day early.
While no major news was expected to come from the minutes, they are nevertheless a key document that can move markets from time to time. Wall Street players often dig deep into the minutes for hints about when the central bank may pull back on its bond-buying policy or raise interest rates.
For that reason, the minutes are usually highly protected by the central bank and their release is supposed to be executed carefully.
A Fed spokesman told CNNMoney the mistake was "entirely accidental," and it was a "human error," not a technological one. The roughly 100 individuals on the list mostly included Congressional employees and employees of trade organizations. They received the minutes shortly after 2 p.m. on Tuesday.
After discovering the error this morning, the Federal Reserve decided to release the minutes to the broader public at 9 a.m. Wednesday.
At this point, it's not clear whether any trading took placed based on the early release, but the Federal Reserve Board's Inspector General will conduct an initial investigation of the error.
"We will be working with market regulators, the SEC and CFTC to insure they have the information they need to evaluate the incident," a Fed spokesman said.

Arrest these bastards!
and change the laws regarding congress and insider trading!!!!!!!!
Premature extrapolation?
hahah change the laws that the law makers make. Thats a funny one. Revolt is what you mean?
Uh, who would have to pass that law making congressman subject to insider trading?
Listen Mo-Fo,
Let me tell you how we "make law" down in the hood
"What else does the Fed leak to those for whom frontrunning is still legal?"
Better question is what else does the Fed leak to those for whom frontrunning is ILLEGAL.
I can't wait to get trading alerts from Ben in my morning email.
Sounds like they are getting more and more confused. Losing control?
The Global Criminal Cabal (Bankster/Intelligence) Crime Syndicate is all about PsyOPs and Political Therater now.
The important thing is, clowngressional lobbyists and other cretins got their front-running info.
I have also suffered from early release!
Frikkin' clown show. WTF!!!!
It all to help the economy...at least the economies of the congressional staffers..I am sure they ran to their TDAmeritrade accounts and traded
So congress has already front-run the minutes, bastards. Same as it ever was.
"leading to a sell off and a sudden drop in IPO activity as well."
I remember when they used to try to hide the fact that they're fuc#ing the rest of us.
Yea they don't even care anymore, they're so full of hubris they now just say 'What are you dirt peasants going to do about it? Go fuck yourselves'
"We the people" are so beaten down over the past 70 years that they could come into your house take your food, cloths and money....beat the shit out of your wife and kids and the response would merely be
"well it's the goverment, what can i do...i am merely one and they are all powerful"
I keep saying this but no one listens:
The real power "we the people" have is our spending power. If "we the people" collectively decided to not spend money for only 9 months (the time it takes to have a new child - 3 quarters) on anything but the bare bare essentials like food and water and only commuting to work gas (no clothes, no toys, no new gadgets, no new cars, no new houses, no accessories...etc) the system is crippled and "we the people" can send a message to poilticians, lobbyists, corporate executives who get paid 10's of millions to bankrupt companies and walk away with golden parachutes that it's time for "real change" and the status quo will just not do.
Who the fuck am i kidding.....go max out your credit cards you sheep
You can tell how confident a government is in its control of its people by how hard they try to hide their coruption.
Weapons and information, control those and the game is over. Gun control and cybersecurity, front burner issues of a bankrupt government.
They seem to have left off the word Banks on the list of who received the early release. This explains that massive upward push that happened at 8:30 in index futures
As if goldman, who just said to short gold, and sell treasuries, did not have this release early.
I'm starting to lose faith in the markets.
They mistakenly sent material market moving data to politicians early OR they were caught this time?
I assume the latter.
Yes its the latter, "They were caught this time", and this isn't the first time
every so often this happens and the usual excuse comes in
Thanks to Obama... whatever transparency was left... TURNED CHARCOAL BLACK!!
A 5 hour window. Even a fucking Congressman should not be able to fuck that up. Guess that's why they all leave as millionaires.
that explains the 9 am gold takedown.
last year...
They had two hours before the close yesterday to make their front running moves....what a fuckin scam
Does anything else matter, when bitcoin value is increasing at 10% per hour?
Stick save idea:
Change the report for 2:00 pm and claim the first one was part of a sting operation. Yea, that'll work.
So long Clarence Beeks.
"the market is now officially a complete circus."
HEY!!! NO Shit??????
The Delusion in Thief wants a mere $3.77 TRILLION budget....so at least we got that goin for us....it's 'for the children' you know...
Don't worry, the Republicans will fight like a mad pack of wild dogs to subdue Obongo's budget, wrestle it down to the ground and in the end will counter with a 3.87 TRILLION dollar budget that will be called DRACONIAN CUTS by the MSM and the party bus will continue screaming across the desert floor towards the Rio Grand Canyon.
The economy is experiencing an OIL SHOCK, a slow one.
I was strongly thinking that they would stop QE during the last meeting and it's clear that it could have happened.
Two options left:
Either let the real economy die
or let two or more primary dealers die by defaulting on derivatives due to stoppage of QE money.
I suspect you know in fact very well, that the only option "they" would ever consider is to let the real economy kick the bucket.
Then again, so what, since Goldman probably wrote the minutes and typed them up last night.
they make decisions, budget allocations etc. for the good of the country. it is only normal for the lawmakers to have some advance notice. a few hours ahead of every blogger in the planet is only normal. anyway, this is my view, i can see most others think differently.
+1 for normalcy bias.
Is anyone here really that surprised?
I love the term,"eliminate with extreme prejudice". It has such a nice ring to it! Lets see,where did I put Guido`s number?
Word is that S.S. has been monitoring the early release of FED data to Senators for some time now...
How does one accidentally release information eariy to only a select group of people that are likely to benefit from it? Do they often only send it to certain groups? Aren't there controls in place that would prevent the document being released before a given time?
Or is more likely that someone got caught sending it out early on purpose? Seems like bullshit to me.
Of course it wasn't by accident.
How many calls go out from Bernanke and the Fed to Goldman and JPM before the release?
Pre-release "costime failure"? Suspicions confirmed: It appears that the governing class takes care of themselves after all.
Obscurium now joins governmentium and unobtanium as Statist minerals.
The surprise here isnt that the minutes were relseased early to a select group, (as that probably happens more than we care to know), its that someone on the inside screwed up and the leak was leaked to the plebes. No doubt the culprit will be found and their membership to Congressional country club will be revoked.
I'm shocked - shocked! - to find gambling going on in this establishment
Bad unpaid intern! Bad! Bad! Now get me my coffee, bitch! *kick in the ass*
Seriously, though...I wonder why they have decided to acknowledge this of all things? Strange times...
The policians are nothing more than employees of big corporations. By law, they should wear sponsor patches while in office and 5 years thereafter. Same for staffers. Hell, there is talk of cops doing just that in efforts of raising more.
The twit who is replacing Jesse Jackson Jr, himself a specimen of humanitarian & equal rights </sarcasm>, was bought by bloomberg. In the 30's/40s that would have caused a mafia war, between the NewYork Branch and the Chicago Branch of the Family.
The sad truth is, we are the damned idiots for having allowed it to get this far. Yes, those fuckers would try anything, but the bigger question is "why do we let them"? Look no further than the fucking illegals: they have the balls to march on Washington for "rights", why we .... do what? Bitch that AZ is too strict in its laws?
Obviously they "released" the minutes to counteract the plunge that the algos were taking on ES when BOJ said that their QE had done it's job. All news "releases" are for the benefit of Computer algos.
- the wrong file needs to be chosen
- The wrong list needs to be chosen
- the message must then be sent
Since this message wasn't intended to be sent until later in any case, the notion that this was an error doesn't pass the smell test.
I'm also wondering why there is an address list comprised of Congressmen and lobbyists??
If the Fed's release this information now what will ObamaCare release to the private section on us?
A TIME TO STAND by Oliver is a must read now. "Privacy = Conspiracy" is what the USG thinks about us. Read the book & see what is about to happen to each of us. It's provocative so I recommend it.
It's not revolution that causes change....it's change that causes revolution.
