Small business days of action: fiscal cliff and tax cuts for the middle class
With the holiday shopping season in high gear, small businesses are becoming increasingly concerned about how going over the fiscal cliff could affect their businesses and the buying power of the middle class—a category virtually all their customers fall into and which 97 percent of them are part of, also.
In order to address this dilemma and ensure Congress knows how important it is to find a solution that works for small business, Small Business Majority is holding a host of tele-press conference calls between Dec. 18-20, where Founder & CEO John Arensmeyer and our state outreach managers from across the country will be joined by senators and representatives and small business owners to bring attention to this issue. On each call, participants will discuss small business concern over the so-called fiscal cliff, its impact on consumer spending, and how employers feel about tax cuts set to expire at the end of the year—for both the middle class and high-income earners.
Below, check out interviews with some of Small Business Majority's Network Council members as they discuss why it's important we don't hold tax cuts for the middle class hostage to those for the wealthiest Americans, and find out more about our upcoming events.

Top Chef favorite Spike Mendelsohn at Pimlico today
If you're a Spike Mendelsohn fan, the former Top Chef contestant will be holding cooking demos in the Preakness Village today at 10 a.m., 11 a.m. and noon. You might even get a sample of dishes like Classic Crab Cakes with Chile Garlic Mayonnaise. (Sounds good, but once you pair a crab cake with chile garlic mayonnaise you can't call it classic anymore.)
He'll be cooking with Kelsey Nixon, his Food2 co-host. (Food2 is the Food Network's new online channel.) ...

126 Riverfront Lane, Avon. Schedule appointments by calling 970-790-3020; spaanjali.com
The treatment: Muladhara Chakra Blessing, 100 minutes, $235
This spa is for: Hotel guests and visitors
First impressions: The cool contemporary design was what you expect in a Westin, but it felt pampering all the same. Stone sculptures, warm woods and soft lighting set the mood for relaxation.
The service was: As promised, a journey. The spa's three-fold "destinations" are inspired by the Rocky Mountains, the European Alps and the Himalayas. I chose the latter and spent an hour and a half in a "chakra blessing" designed to ease stress while calming the body and mind. I don't doubt the whole ancient Hindu notion of chakras, which are the centers of energy in the body, but confess to not paying full attention as I was quickly lulled by the various parts of this "Down to Earth" blessing centered on the muladhara, or root, chakra at the base of the spine.
Amenities: The locker room was clean and bright, featuring such touches as a bowl piled with cool, rolled washcloths topped with cucumber slices.
The adjacent athletic club just underwent a $1 million renovation and expansion. It has a full array of equipment and separate studios for exercise classes, yoga, Pilates and cycling. Access to the club is included with a spa treatment. There's also a 25-yard saline pool on the property and three infinity hot tubs that overlook the Eagle River.
Repeat visit planned? Yes, to take advantage of the "Riverfront Valley Girl Getaway" that features lodging, a $100 gift card, manicure and pedicure, bottle of wine, two group fitness classes daily and valet parking. Rates start at $245 per night and are available through Nov. 24, two-night minimum stay. westinriverfrontbeavercreek.com; 866-949-1616
Know before you go: Spa management adds an automatic 18 percent gratuity, which is mentioned when you're paying. Check the website for specials and a spa menu.

National Hockey League commissioner Gary Bettman listens to lawyer Robert J. Cleary present his findings regarding Rick Tocchet during a press conference Thursday, Nov. 1, 2007 in New York. Bettman announced that he will reinstate Tocchet effective Feb. 7, 2008. Tocchet had been on a leave of absence from the league since February 2006, when he was accused of running a U-S sports gambling ring. (AP Photo/Stephen Chernin)
NEW YORK (AP) -- The NHL's four-month lockout finally ended Saturday night following another tough negotiation that nearly delayed training camps even longer.
The league and the players' association completed a required memorandum of understanding that had to be signed before camps were cleared to open. That will happen on Sunday with a 48-game regular season to begin on Jan. 19.
The NHL also was set to release the long-awaited schedule, minus the 510 games that were lost to the lockout.
It took all week and much longer than expected on Saturday for the memorandum to be completed. The announcement that it was finished came several hours after the union easily ratified the tentative deal reached last Sunday.
The more than 700 union members had a 36-hour window from Thursday night until Saturday morning to vote electronically. The NHL board of governors unanimously approved the deal on Wednesday.

The 2 Series is a relatively new member of the BMW family, having been spun off of the 1 Series (itself one of the company's youngest lines) just last year. So far the range has been split between the Active Tourer and the 2 Series Coupe, but soon the latter will breed a new compact convertible to take the place of the outgoing 1 Series cabriolet, and here we have our best look at it yet.

RCB Activity: Will The Real RZ Normae Please Stand Up
Hi To All
Just like to draw your attention to RZ Normae : This RCB star, although still 4 to 5 magnitudes below max, is apparently beginning to recover from an even fainter level observed in late May 2013 (16.2V). Unfortunately, a wide field image I was able to secure on March 25th of this year is, although quite deep, pretty useless due to the presence of the close 13th mag companion (see note in VSX).
The minimum in VSX is listed as <14.2V. The database (I've only looked at the obs from 2000 to the present so far) shows very few positives below the magnitude given for the close companion. Would some of you like to weigh in on this one ?
Very best regards to all,
Steve O'Connor
Hi Steve and All.
The early chart 352 issued about 1977 by the old VSS RASNZ did not plot the mag 13.5 star close NE of RZ Nor and some observers (no doubt me included) have misidentified this field star with the variable. RZ Nor does not appear to stay near that brightness for very long and this field star is therefore easily misidentified when the variable is faint or over powered when RZ Nor is near maximum.
It is clearly resolved in my visual 30cm reflector that I began using in 1992. This was at a time when detailed charts were simply not available and the Internet something that might just catch on.
I first noted this companion star during the deep decline of RZ Nor in 1999 and confirmed its presence in a field sketch during the subsequent decline of 2001. I mentioned it to the AAVSO in an email in July 2012 when it was apparent that it was being confused with the variable. Perhaps this prompted the remark in the VSX.
In any case, observers need to be careful when observing RZ Nor during deep minima to ensure they clearly identify both the variable and companion.
Tks and regards.
Peter Williams (WPX)
Thanks for pointing that out. I became aware of it when we took a decline spectrum of RZ Nor and it was an A star! I made a note of this in my recent review paper on RCB stars,
Geoff Clayton
In preparation for the paper about R CrB stars that Patrick Tisserand, Geoff Clayton and I published recently, I tracked down the proper motions from the PPMXL catalog of the R CrB stars to be listed in our paper. RZ Nor's proper motion was a whopping 103.6 milliarcseconds per year (compared to the others which were typically 20 milliarcseconds per year or less. The reason, of course, was that the nearby A-star was identified with RZ Nor at one epoch (when RZ Nor was in deep decline) but not at the other.

Predictable Long-run Stock Market Returns?
Posted in Fundamental Valuation, Technical Trading
February 20, 2013
Are there exploitable long-term cycles in U.S. stock market returns? In the January 2013 update of his paper entitled "Secular Mean Reversion and Long-Run Predictability of the Stock Market", Valeriy Zakamulin explores mean reversion of the S&P Composite Index over intervals ranging from two to 40 years. He then runs an out-of-sample horse race using inception-to-date data to compare three regression-based models for forecasting long-term stock market returns: (1) mean reversion over the dynamically optimal horizon; (2) the random walk (future mean return equals (evolving) historical mean return); and, (3) valuation based on Robert Shiller's cyclically adjusted price-to-earnings ratio (P/E10). Using real (Consumer Price Index-adjusted) S&P Composite Index total annual returns and earnings over the period 1871 through 2011 (141 years), he finds that: (more…)

Home base. Easy, quite (boring), accessible. International it is not; scheduled flights are all domestic. Best bet is to jet private or take a heli to MIA. Maybe hitch a ride on Trump's 757 ;-)
Easy access to palm beach and much less chaotic than fort lauderdale or miami airports
Cell phone waiting area has been moved to Belvedere Road. Leave yourself ample time to get back in to the airport if time is an issue.
An airport that's known for early departures. I recommend, arrive early, grab yourself some Starbucks and chill until boarding time.
Gratis wi-fi
Easy to get around
Do economy parking, take a picture of the parking space number before you leave, and tip the bus driver.
Clean and more of an upscale airport. Always a breeze flying through here and pickups are never crowded.
Please be patient when you're here. Lots of elderly. If we're lucky, one day we'll be elderly, too. Workers here are FABULOUS and very kind.
So personal. Easy and fun.
Very often cheaper than FLL if you are south and willing to do the drive.
Smaller, more convenient, quicker in and out and just an over all better choice than FLL. Doesn't have the same number of direct flights as FLL or MIA, but will always go PBI if it is an option.
Must go to new whole foods at palm beach lake blvd..take out hero's for plane. Two miles from airport. Also eating thete fab Franchia wooden plates of cheese n salami.
Security line goes quick!
VERY slow security line
Nice, efficient airport. No congestion.
Dont try to bring in water or yogurt
Pros: Overall it is a good airport, not too crowded, traffic is not bad-Cons: food selection is very limited, and good luck finding non-stop flights
What up West Palm!? On our way to Hobe sound!
there's a nice open-space bar in the center of the gates C8-15 area.
Coming home
Empty today
Going back to Indiana
Free wifi. Easy in and out. Premium parking down front. Eateries need to be shut down and redone. Don't eat here it's gotta be better where you're going.
Great airport to get in and out of. Very small and cosmetically appealing. Eat before you go to your gate as your options will be limited.
Heading back to nyc
Quick and efficient. Stop at Nick's if you can!
Hawaii bound.
Easy in easy out. Love this airport
Pre TSA check-in is a blast. No hassle
Great airport. Clean. Organized. Free wifi and charging stations. Impressed!
Pretty calm. Limited eating options
If you are taking people express the desk doesn't open til 1pm
Great airport. Rental car shuttle located outside across street on middle island. It's not clearly marked.
Nice Bathrooms!
Nothing but New York families burnt by the sun.
Probably the easiest, fastest, and most friendly airport I have ever been to. Everyone here is extremely nice .
Wi-fi is glitchy and you're stuck with fast-food. Airport seems as though it's stuck in 1989.
Good airport! Flight was delayed but free wifi and good thin crust pizza at Nick's!
Cute airport with easy to reach gates, helpful personel, rental car stations within jitney rides - all in a calm environment - if you can pick this airport do!
Terminal C near gate C15 has workstations with power outlets
Don't eat at the Chili's at the American Terminal. My friend had a live roach crawl out from under her breakfast burrito.
I don't like this place today.
Love that it's not busy!
They now have Pre TSA nice
PBI has okay views of the runways, but great views of the ramps.
Palm Beach International Airport is one of the nicest facilities in the county. Easy to navigate, lots of windows, blue skies and sunshine.
This place shuts down at 6pm. Don't be delayed
Always fly into MIA and FLL...this airport rocks. I am so happy I'm in tears. No lie!
Lots of loafers and croakies.

Saw this reported on the local news last night, first I had heard of it.
The rugged Bruins defenseman told CSNNE.com he underwent surgery in early October for thoracic outlet syndrome after a blood clot developed under his collarbone. The surgery would have knocked him out until late January or early February.
McQuaid, 26, said his right arm "blew up" after one of the skating sessions at Harvard University in mid-September. He needed to undergo two significant surgeries at Mass General Hospital within a couple of weeks of each other, one to remove the dangerous clot, and another to prevent the condition from recurring in his arm.
McQuaid needed to have an entire rib removed along with part of his neck muscle as part of the procedure. He has been recovering slowly in the Boston area since then.

Anthony De Beauville
it or not just weeks before the NBA showpiece

alike and most importantly some of Miami Heat
basketball fans will have an opportunity to
get an autograph signed by one of their favorite
player on court all courtesy the St. Lucia Basketball
Federation, Blazin 99.3 FM, and KFC.
good news was unveiled at a press conference
on Tuesday morning at the Ministry of Youth
Development and Sports conference room located
in the Blue Coral Building in Castries. The
St.Lucia Basketball federation will be hosting
KFC celebrity basketball camp on Saturday 31st
August from 2.00pm to 6.00pm at the Vigie Multi

clinic for children 7 to 18 years old on the
basic on basketball, a slam dunk competition,
three point shootout competition, a celebrity
exhibition game, and autograph signing.
of the St.Lucia Basketball Association Leslie
Collymore in his brief remark said,"I
think this event is more than timely in terms
of using Mr. Chalmers and by extension the Miami
Heat star power to really advance and draw up
some support for the sport of basketball. It
is no secret, that there is a lot of competition
out there in terms of the availability of various
sports that children can choose from. Basketball
has struggled for a very long time and to have
this person at our camp for the summer is a
blessing which fell straight into our lap. This
will reallyhelp to promote the game".
He further went on to say,
"The SLBF feels that Mario Chalmers
KFC celebrity camp is an excellent initiative
as a launch pad for warming up some support
from cooperate sponsors, but also getting
the young and aspiring basketballers on island
really excited about the sport of basketball".
Dwyane Mendes from Blazin
99.3 FM the individual behind the scene took
time out to explain how it all started."
Through mutual friendship I was able to get
in touch with Mario Chalmers, and low and
behold he was keen to come to St.Lucia simply
to relax and enjoy the picturesque of island,
I immediately got in touch with my long time
friend from kindergarten Leslie Collymore
President of the St.Lucia Basketball Federation.
I said to him I have a great opportunity to
bring down an NBA superstar and when I told
him who the individual was he was very excited.
I told him I will start working on my end
concerning sponsorship and through my relationship
with KFC, I was able to get Mario Chalmers
appurtenance fee paid for".
Asked how much Mario Chalmers
will be receiving for his appearance Mendes
replied "It's only a donation".
He remained tight lipped as to the actual
amount for the two time NBA Champion.

The Wheelchair is a very slow vehicle in Grand Theft Auto: London 1969. Its speed is just as fast as a pedestrian walking and is definitely not the best getaway vehicle. It can be spotted near hospitals.
- There is an unusable wheelchair in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas located in Fisher's Lagoon. It has the same model texture as some trash cans that can be found around the State of San Andreas.

A fellow blogger who runs the "Tubuans and Dukduks" Blog left a comment on yesterday's post to suggest that my Alexa Rankings were the best of any website or blog in Papua New Guinea.
Curiosity killed the beast and of course I had to go and have a look for myself!
Founded in April 1996, Alexa Internet grew out of a vision of Web navigation that is intelligent and constantly improving with the participation of its users. Along the way Alexa has developed an installed based of millions of toolbars, one of the largest Web crawls and an infrastructure to process and serve massive amounts of data.
For users of Alexa's Toolbar and web site this has resulted in products that have revolutionized Web navigation and intelligence. For developers this has resulted in a set of tools unprecedented in scope allowing whole new services to be created on the Alexa data and platform.
To my surprise and delight I found the following:
Classification: Top > Regional > Oceania > Papua New Guinea > Society and Culture > Personal Pages
Top 5 sites out of a total of 39 for Personal Pages…

|The Masalai Blog
|Madang – Ples Bilong Mi

The moral of this story:
You will find a million articles on the subject of how to improve one's ranking with search engines such as Google, Alexa, MSN, Yahoo or Cuil to name a few – however, in my opinion there's four things that ultimately impact the ranking of a site:
1) Content (Quality)
2) Aesthetics (Presentation)
3) SEO – Search Engine Optimisation (Interaction)
4) Social networking (Participation)
Up until 6 months ago I thought SEO was an acronym for a corporate executive. The last few months and ever since I moved to WordPress – this whole area has become a passion. Interestingly the more I get into it – the more complex it seems to become. Having said that there are some basic rules of thumb that one can apply to improve rankings.
Most other blogs around PNG focus mainly on content and not on the other three points. I have spread myself evenly across all four. This is probably why my blog scores better in the rankings game – not necessarily because my content is superior. There are many PNG blogs out there that have far better quality content – with a little bit of tweaking – these blogs/sites would zoom straight past me on any rankings scale.
Do rankings really matter to me? Yes and no. What ultimately drives me to understand SEO principles is wanting to attract more visitors. I'd rather get 100 visitors a day than 10 – or 1000 a day than 100 – and so on. However what drives me to continue to Blog is not the potential for better rankings or improved SEO or even more visitors – No! I continue to Blog simply because it allows me to express and share my individuality with others – blogging is an almost perfect medium for this.
A little tweak here and a little tweak there…
NB1: Those of you that are reading this post and perhaps know a little about SEO – note that all of the external links in this post are DOFOLLOW links!!

Crash.Net MotoGP News
Lorenzo: I didn't think this was possible
30 June 2013
World champion Jorge Lorenzo lauded his against-the-odds fifth place finish in the Dutch MotoGP at Assen as 'better than any victory in my career'.
Lorenzo suffered a broken left collarbone in a fall during Thursday practice but incredibly took his place on the grid after returning to the Netherlands following surgery in Barcelona.
He rode through the pain barrier to finish behind championship leader Dani Pedrosa, with the Repsol Honda rider only increasing his lead at the top by two points to a nine-point margin.
"It would have been impossible to believe some minutes after my crash that this could happen," said Lorenzo. "We were brave to make the operation the same day, if I had waited to Friday the doctors would not have let me race.
"We made the race today and I was very brave in the first laps because passing the riders with a collarbone like this under braking was really hard.
"I felt quite good physically at the beginning of the race but after lap seven every lap was worse; it was more difficult to change direction, to brake and to accelerate so I couldn't do more than fifth position," he added.
"We only lost two points to Dani who is leading the championship.
"This fifth position is better than any victory I have had in my career."
Lorenzo is now optimistic of his chances in the next race at the Sachsenring in Germany, even though the defending world champion will be still be far from fully fit.
"I hope to have a good recovery for Germany, I will not be 100% but I hope to be better than here," said Lorenzo, who praised team-mate Valentino Rossi following the Italian's brilliant victory for the Factory Yamaha team.
"The victory for Valentino and the third for Crutchlow are good for the championship, I would have preferred Cal to finish in front of Marc but you can't always have perfection!" he said.
"I am happy for Valentino, more than two years without winning has been hard for him so I'm happy for my box partner.
"After Aragon I think he made some improvements and here he took profit from the opportunity.
"Lets see what happens in Sachsenring as last year we had some issues and the Hondas were strong but I think if I can improve my physical condition I can be more competitive than this race."
Be there!

Sanrio, the Japanese company behind one of the world's most popular fictional characters, has just revealed that Hello Kitty is not a feline, but in fact a forever third-grader named Kitty White who lives just outside of London with her dad George, mom Mary, and twin sister Mimmy. Born on November 1st, she is five apples in height and loves origami and making pancakes. Cat or not, we still love Hello Kitty nonetheless, and are definitely excited to go visit her at the SANRIO HELLO KITTY TOWN in Johor Bahru!
EXTREME SELFIES Travellers, especially solo ones, have been taking selfies with the world's most interesting and beautiful landmarks and landscapes for years. And now a daredevil trend has emerged: extreme selfies. We're talking about those taken during skydiving, cliff diving, from a fighter jet, and even one on top of the iconic Jesus statue in Rio! Recently we stumbled upon one of the most heart-stopping selfie videos ever, where three teenagers went to the very top of The Centre, Hong Kong's fifth highest building at 346 metres high and shot this awesomely nerve-wracking (for us!) 360° video of the city skyline. Watch the video above to believe it for yourself!
FREE WI-FI TRIAL ONBOARD AIRASIA Great news for those who are flying with AirAsia soon! A new inflight Wi-Fi service is coming up, and AirAsia is now giving a Free User Trial (FUT) on selected flights until end of October 2014. With a quota of 1MB per guest, up to 60 guests per flight can connect via LINE, WhatsApp and WeChat using their smartphones. Make your friends jealous by sending a selfie with the pretty Flight Attendant from more than 30,000 feet on air, or let your family know that you had a delicious Vegetable Pasta onboard. For those who took our advice on How To Meet Someone When You're Flying and are brave enough to ask the cute girl on row 20 for her number, perhaps you guys can chat immediately instead of waiting until landing for Wi-Fi!

when do you think the tournament will get done on nov12?
Jon Andare October 2, 2011 at 9:38pm
Should have had you as a partner for it, I had asked a buddy of mine to play prior and didn't want to seem like a douche for not playing it with him. It was a bad idea he defeated himself in his head after the start of the second round, by the end we were at odds with one another. But you live and you learn. I'll be seeing you around, if I can ill be at Mob Ass. in November.
Jen Dombrowski October 2, 2011 at 1:05am
Thanks for the invite. I would have loved to have been able to make it to Cass this weekend. Unfortunately it just was not in the cards this weekend. I will try to make it out there for a future event though!
Jayne Snider October 1, 2011 at 3:42pm
Hey Larry- I am back in MI! Living in Dewitt, and going to LCC for a semester. School is pretty intense (I'm in a semester long EMT academy with tests almost daily and 16 hours of lecture/ lab a week). I'm not working cuz of school, so it's just a lot of rec golf for me. Thanks for keeping me informed though. If I get some cash by November, I'll try to make it the the Basket Assassination. Hope things go well with the Fling!
Reid Frescura September 29, 2011 at 3:50pm
As much as i would love to do both, i'm going to have to stick to just the saturday one. I have to donate at least one day to homework
Reid Frescura September 28, 2011 at 6:16pm
That's tad too far of a drive for me to make it out. But could you please sign me up for the advanced division for the essential basket assassination?
Wade TF September 23, 2011 at 11:51pm
I predict a couple ringers at that tournament.. but that doesn't rule me out. I might be able to go. I'm kind of up in the air about it.

I think I'm getting alzheimers
I felt so dumb this morning.
I went into our kinda office, kinda recording area, kinda music area, kinda man-cave room to grab my Edwinson to change the strings. I've barely been playing guitar lately. I go and grab a guitar case, open it up, and take her out.
First thing I do is strum a few chords and fiddle around a bit for a few seconds and think to myself "Dang, this doesn't really sound as nice as I remember it. Hm maybe it's just because I have some music [Dustin Kensrue] playing."
I start loosening the low E in order to switch it. Once I do that, I notice that the bridge pin is exceptionally hard to get out, and I notice scratch marks on it from pliers. I think to myself "Damn, I don't remember doing that and really ruining the way these nice ass custom pins look."
Then I look at the pins and think "Hmm, nevermind I guess they aren't as nice as I remember. They're just regular pins and easy to replace." So I continue trying to pull it out, to no avail. I'm about to put the guitar down to go get some pliers, and then I look at the wood of the top. I notice some green/blue stains on the wood, which I can't rub out, and then some cracks and dents that I don't remember.
I think "Holy crap, I CAN'T BELIEVE my nice Edwinson has this much damage on it already. What the hell."
Then over the course of about 10-15 seconds, I stare at the guitar. I look at the body, up and down the neck/fretboard, and onto the headstock. Only then do I realize that this is in fact my years old Washburn F52SWCE. At this point I feel dumb as hell, so I put it back in its case, which looks nothing like the custom Edwinson case by the way, and then pick up the other case. I put it down, open it, and I'm staring at my Alvarez MC-90 classical guitar. Again, I look at the case, which also looks nothing like the (entirely different colored) Edwinson case.
Bewildered and stupid, I finally open the right case, look at my Edwinson, and my eyes are bathed in the holy light again.
End result, I picked it up, played it and realized how nice it sounds again, put it back in because I didn't feel like my brain could handle changing the strings, and went to work out.
So yeah, there's my adventure with discovering how dumb I could feel.
damn man yu gotta eat some brain fud
but its cool happens to all of us
once i restringed my guitar upside down for some reason
I totally had something in mind to reply to your post, but I forgot what it was
Clearly, someone needs a nap.
Look on the bright side...it might not be Alzheimer's. It might just be a brain tumor.
At least they can remove those.
On the Who's album, "Live at Leeds", Peter Townshend cautions the audience to, "put that cigarette out". Sound advice, dude!
Or maybe, "one pill makes you larger, and one pill makes your short term memory small".
i'm worried about you dread. spending a little too much time at the b(r)each are we? with or without the R it could be serious. without it, it's overexposure to the sun. the only safe remedy is to send me that wonderful edwinson. with the R in it, i'm afraid it's probably a fatal social disease...again it might not be to late to ship that beautiful baby to me before its too late !!!!
if worse comes to worst, you won't remember that i now possess it. if your lucky you wont even remember that you owned it once and shipped it to a complete stranger.
i bet it was a HUGE relief when you realized that wasn't your edwinson!!!
maybe you could use a little more sleep...
Hey wait a minute, that's my excuse for bad behavior
Oh man, you have NO idea how big the relief was! haha. It was such a nice revelation.
But you're right though, I've had three nights this week where I've woken up at 7 AM and got home from work at the same time...
Yeah sure dude it's on the way.
Also, the way I used "breach" isn't the one you're thinking of it :p:
BTW, I had never heard of that brand, so I looked 'em up.
DAMN! Those are beautiful.
How much did your piece of steel-stringed nirvana set you back?
honestly dude... i feel ya. i only sleep for a few hours every few days. i've had more of those moments than Cranky's had hate-mail :peace: , danny's had lawsuits(and good suits) :bonk: and patti's had new guitar shops open on her block(just last week) :livid: :livid:
consider your memory refreshed ;-)
looks like the pics have gone missing. maybe dreadnought can repost 'em somewhere. his guitar is absolutely gorgeous!
I read that link...@$4800? Not too shabby!
pics are all gone but the mp3's sound incredible ! oh yeah... when you get alzheimers jon, that things going from squid to RSS ! i woud love some eye candy to match that magical voice !
*still awaiting acousti-porn guitar pix*
i hear ya danny, that thing's gotta be sexier than my 2080sr. i haven't been this excited since Jenny Mcarthy visited the Mog back in '93. sitting here since yesterday with some string wipes and a wet towel ! the "blonde" has been wondering why i've been locked in the bathroom with my laptop since yesterday.
it's the harlequin consort.

Journalism professor: Crumbling advertising-editorial firewall means ACCC should be more involved in media
The media should come under more regulatory scrutiny when its editorial coverage is tainted by commercial interests, an influential journalism professor has urged.
The call for the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission to become more involved came from Bond University's Mark Pearson, author of several editions of The Journalist's Guide To Media Law.
Speaking to ABC Radio National's The Media Report, Prof Pearson said that new laws are not necessarily needed to regulate the Australian press – but current exemptions to consumer law should be looked at again.
He said: "There are already so many laws controlling the behaviour of news organisations and journalists, we don't really need any more. We need to make those that exist more effective. But if there had to be something more, the consumer law that exists at the moment, and already applies to the media in many ways, could be extended to cover heinous ethical breaches."
Prof Pearson's comments come shortly before the findings of the Finkelstein Inquiry into print and online journalism are released.
Pearson said that the likes of radio's cash for comment scandal in which 2UE's John Laws and Alan Jones were found to have given favourable comment to brands that were paying them to do so.
Pearson said the Competition and Consumer Act could be used to control some of the unethical conduct of media outlets if current examptions were relaxed. He said: "It was introduced in 1974 and it has a provision, basically banning misleading and deceptive conduct, which is normally applying to advertising. But for the first few years, some court decisions held that it might also apply to misleading claims made in news stories; the editorial columns of newspapers and their equivalent in broadcast. So because they didn't want this impingement on free expression and because of lobbying by the major media groups, they had an exemption to that introduced for prescribed news providers which basically, unless it was in advertising or promoting their own products and so on, they would be exempted from these misleading and deceptive conduct provisions."
He added: "I don't think some tinkering with that would do any great harm which would cover the most drastic ethical breaches, clearly contrary to the public interest, where there's been real misleading and deceptive conduct involved, of the order of your cash for comment kind of situation.
" The more the media is moving towards breaking down that firewall between editorial and advertising the more they need to be treated like just another business except where they're doing genuine public interest journalism."
Perason's new book Blogging And Tweeting Without Getting Sued is released next month. He will be speaking at tomorrow afternoon's Mumbrella masterclass in Managing Risk In Social Media.

He's right.
Advertorial aka " integrated " should be marked as such by law.
Office of Fair Trading in the UK already started looking at bought Tweets and blogs:
There is a fine line between intervention for high-level cash for comment and allowing magazines to decide if they like a product and possibly have it as a prize and/or a favourable write-up.
Readers are very sophisticated today and know to check reviews and editorial. For example, a number of times recently I wanted to purchase an A3 printer/scanner.
I didn't read the good reviews in magazines and on the web – I looked for the bad reviews. The result was (a) I didn't buy any of them and (b) wrote to one tech review site and suggested they delete five bad reviews, as they were all by the same person under different names.
The site apologised, saying it was one of the disadvantages of an open forum.
How does this relate to the issue? Very few magazines can survive, without assisting advertisers with Editorial. When I was a Managing Editor at a magazine company, we did more editorial for advertisers, but would never do so if we knew the product was not one of the best. So it was win-win for us all – especially readers.
Any attack on this business model (which 99 percent of the public are aware of) will put most magazines out of business and I suspect make business more difficult for the professor too.
Pffft… in the social media era, by the time the regulator acts on behalf of consumers the self-same consumers have figured it out, publically castigated the publisher and long since moved on to the next media transgression… A regulatory review of dumb things said by dinosaur media academics would be more useful.

At the height of their popularity, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ruled the world. From cereals to video games to international musical stage tours to snack cakes, there was no medium those green bastards wouldn't infiltrate.
Their most successful foray of all, however, was into the world of toys. Hundreds of different figures were produced and some of them were even re-released recently for another round of children and nostalgically-geeky adults like myself to snatch up and cradle in sublime solemnity.
Despite all of the interesting characters like the Rat King and Mondo Gecko, it was the playsets that really reigned supreme. There was the aptly-named Turtle Van, their dingy sewer hideout, the Turtle Blimp, and many others that littered the carpeted floors of many a kid's bedroom in the 90s.
All of that aside, those figures and playsets had absolutely nothing on the epitome of amazing Ninja Turtle toys. This wasn't just a playset, this was a dream come true. This was the toy that marked many people's most memorable Christmas morning ever. This was the most magical, inspiring piece of colored plastic ever to grace the shelves of a local KB Toys, Kiddie City, or Toys R Us. This was the one toy to rule them all. This was THE TECHNODROME.

oddesa barb bullying its kind
this has been happening for a while now.i have two oddesa barbs.so one relentlessly chases the other oddesa. the bullied oddesa hides in its plants and the agressive oddesa barb wont mind after it hides.recently the oddesa is no linger chasing and fighting with the poor guy. what do i do? .i do want to keep the oddesa barbs but if its getting bullied i will just return it back. if i do need to remove it how do i remove it? its too fast :-?. also,can remove the agressive oddesa and let the passive one stay ?
They really should be in a larger group. A minimum of six is recommended. If you can't get more of them, I'd bring them both back to the pet store.
Sent from Petguide.com App
Agree absolutely. Read why in our profile: http://www.tropicalfishkeeping.com/c...adamya-193737/
well.....looks like i need to return them back.as much as i love them i do not want any of them to be suffering.but how do i get them out from my tank :-?.there too fast
Yup - the little buggers are fast. Use two nets and keep one at one end of the tank and slowly get behind them with the other net. When the swim from the one you have behind them, scoop them up with the other one.
Good luck.
I find that removing the water from the tank makes the fish much easier to catch.
ill try there really fast !!!!!!!!! ahhhhhhhh:|
Gotta loved those henchman barbs.Lighting fast and not afraid of anything but a net .

Hi there! I'm travlersdepot and I currently live in Olympia, Washington, though I've lived all over southwest Washington growing up.
I've been riding and wrenching for about 15 years now and my current steed is a 2006 Jamis Aurora that I've got fully outfitted for touring and commuting.
I mostly do fun rides around Olympia, but have been known to commute to work when I don't feel like walking.
When I'm not riding I can be found working at the really freakin' early shift at Target, playing World of Warcraft, reading, writing, or just staring at the wall.

In 2008, the United Nations Environment Program passed a resolution expressing 'extreme concern' over the impacts of climate change on Arctic indigenous peoples, other communities, and biodiversity. It highlighted the potentially significant consequences of changes in the Arctic. The Arctic Biodiversity Trends – 2010: Selected Indicators of Change report provides evidence that some of those anticipated impacts on Arctic biodiversity are already occurring. Furthermore, although climate change is a pervasive stressor, multiple stressors, such as long range transport of contaminants, harvesting of wild species, and resource development are also impacting Arctic biodiversity.
- From Introduction of Key Findings of Arctic Biodiversity Trends – 2010: Selected Indicators of Change
The Arctic Council released a new report entitled Arctic Biodiversity Trends 2010: Selected Indicators of Change on May 27, 2010. The report, published by the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF) working group of the Arctic Council, synthesizes scientific findings on the status and trends for
22 indicators of change, including Arctic species, ecosystems, and ecosystem services.
Ecosystem Services
1. Polar bears
2. Wild reindeer and caribou
3. Shorebirds – red knot
4. Seabirds – murres (guillemots)
5. Seabirds – common eiders
6. Arctic char
7. Invasive species – human-induced
8. The Arctic Species Trend Index
9. Arctic genetic diversity
10. Arctic sea-ice systems
11. Greening of the Arctic
12. Reproductive phenology in
terrestrial ecosystems
13. Appearing and disappearing
lakes in the Arctic
14. Arctic peatlands
15. Effects of decreased
freshwater ice cover
duration on biodiversity
16. Changing distribution of
marine fish
17. Impacts of human
activities on benthic habitat
18. Reindeer herding
19. Seabird harvest
20. Changes in harvest
21. Changes in protected areas
22. Linguistic diversity
Polar bears are one of the 22 indicators included in Arctic Biodiversity Trends 2010. Their range is limited to areas in which the sea is ice-covered for most of the year. They are therefore particularly vulnerable to decreases in sea ice. There are approximately 20,000 to 25,000 polar bears in the wild, living in 19 subpopulations within the Arctic. The availability, reliability, and age of data on these subpopulations vary, but according to a 2009 assessment, one of the 19 subpopulations appears to be increasing in number, 3 are stable, and 8 are declining. Data are insufficient to provide an assessment of the other 7 subpopulations. Concerns for the future of this iconic species, and for the other 21 indicators, are discussed in the Arctic Biodiversity Trends 2010 report.
Arctic Biodiversity Trends 2010 is an Arctic Council contribution to the United Nations International Year of Biodiversity. A full scientific assessment building upon the report is currently in preparation and will be delivered to the Arctic Council in 2013.
The full report can be viewed and downloaded at http://www.arcticbiodiversity.is.
Distribution and current trend of polar bear subpopulations throughout the circumpolar Arctic
Key findings in the report include:
The Arctic Council, created in 1996, is a high level intergovernmental forum that promotes cooperation, coordination, and interaction among the Arctic States, in particular relating to sustainable development and environmental protection. Arctic Indigenous communities and other Arctic inhabitants also are involved in the Council. Member States of the Arctic Council are Canada, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Russian Federation, Sweden, and the United States.

Top Ten Films About Filmmaking, Part Two
22 film critics pick the best movies about making movies.
5. Sunset Blvd. (1950, Billy Wilder)
Few movies about movies are as ingeniously constructed and metaphorically flexible as Sunset Boulevard. Norma Desmond's gothic mansion is a house of psychological horror for studio system cast-offs: creatives (William Holden), talent (Gloria Swanson) and even the help (Erich Von Stroheim). In one of its best tricks, it's also a funhouse hall of mirrors. "Those wonderful people out there in the dark" (that'd be us, folks) may be friendly phantoms but they're haunting Norma as surely as she's haunting them. This faded Hollywood queen remains the cinema's best and most ghoulish reminder of celebrity's dark shadows, it's hermetic mythologies and erosion into self parody, and the transience of the flickering image itself. What would Norma make of those wonderful people watching movies on their phones? "The pictures got small." – Nathaniel Rogers
4. Man with a Movie Camera (1929, Dziga Vertov)
Man with A Movie Camera is the greatest of all films about film-making, because more thoroughly and complexly than others in this genre it makes the thematic investigation into the properties and processes of film-making the organizing principle of its form. There is a constructive synthesis of form and content in Man with a Movie Camera, that makes cinema into an emblem of the creative forces of life itself. So one must say that this unique film about film takes the project of being 'about' film further than any other film, and more seriously than any other film.
Another way to say this simply, is that all film about film is necessarily by definition reflexive, and self-conscious, but this condition is elevated by Vertov into virtually ametaphysical principle. It pushes self reflection to the point of absolute universality. Many of the great films on this list do this (fellini, Kiarostomi, Powell, Lynch) but Vertov does it in every moment and detail of his film. The completeness of expression in Man with a Movie Camera is unsurpassed." – Larry Gross
3. 8 1/2 (1963, Federico Fellini)
8 1/2 isn't so much a film about filmmaking as it is a film about dreaming, daydreaming, and dream-remembering filmmaking . . . or life as filmmaking . . . or the frustration of translating life into filmmaking. Which is why 8 1/2 so gloriously succeeds in championing film as the ultimate dream-medium, since dreams make even failure into art. – Michael Joshua Rowin
2 . Close-Up (1990, Abbas Kiarostami)
Abbas Kiarostami's Close-Up is not only an immensely poignant testament to the power of filmmaking, it's also the cinema's definitive self-portrait. A film that obliterates the reductive binary between "documentary" and "narrative" movies, Close-Up hijacks the tale of a plain and penniless cinephile named Hossein Sabzian, who had convinced a family of strangers that he was his idol — renowned filmmaker Mohsen Makmahlbuf — and that he would like them to star in his next film. Kiarostami, seized by the incident, visits Sabzian in prison and makes a film of his story, weaving footage of Sabzian's trial together with dramatic reenactments of his fraud. What follows is a wistfully enigmatic saga about our collective need for narrative, and how the cinema's fundamental inability to reproduce reality is ultimately what frees it to be of such profound importance to all of our real lives. – David Ehrlich
1. Contempt (1963, Jean-Luc Godard)
A film about filmmaking that is also about aging, love, and the changing of the guard at a very specific moment in history. Fritz Lang plays an old director making a movie adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. Godard layers multiple epoch-defining shifts: from antiquity to now; within antiquity, from Greek to Roman; from the classical studio system to the balkanized world of mid-60s filmmaking. And there's the central shift that reflects on all the others: the feelings between a romantic couple turning from love to contempt. The question that haunts the lovers and everything about the film: why did the past prove unsustainable? How does contempt for the ways things are now arise to turn them into the way things were? Lang's presence embodies the Hollywood of the past; Contempt itself now feels like a relic of an older kind of filmmaking. But it's worth taking a look at to try to get a feel for where movies are headed, when so much about right now feels unsustainable, when contempt is running high. – Tom McCormack
Honorable Mentions: F for Fake (1973, Orson Welles), Irma Vep (1995, Olivier Assayas), Day for Night (1973, Francois Truffaut), The Last Movie (1971, Dennis Hopper), Living in Oblivion (1995, Tom DiCillo), Millennium Actress (2001, Satoshi Kon), Sullivan's Travels (1941, Preston Sturges), Duck Amuck (1953, Chuck Jones), Barton Fink (1992, Joel Coen), Los Angeles Plays Itself (2003, Thom Andersen), The State of Things (1982, Wim Wenders), Two Weeks in Another Town (1962, Vincente Minnelli), Singin' in the Rain (1952, Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly)

Sherman's March!
Ummm…Blow Out!
I would like to suggest:
1. Roman Copolla's CQ is a film about an idealistic american filmmaker in paris in the 1960's who is working on his own cinema-verite-esque personal project while editing a barbarella-like sci fi movie. As the movie progresses, the lines between the three movies start to blur and ultimately you are left with a delightfully campy love letter to film making.
2. John Water's Cecil B. Demented is a fantastically fun movie about an outlaw filmmaker, Cecil B. Demented and his cult of filmmaking rebels. It's the perfect film for those times that you feel violently angry about the mediocrity of Hollywood's output.

Economic development gets new acting director
Saturday, April 27, 2013
Gov. Jay Nixon has named a new acting director of the Missouri Department of Economic Development.
Nixon said Friday the role will be filled by Mike Downing, who has served as the agency's deputy director of business development. He replaces Chris Pieper, who has been the department's acting director for more than a year. Nixon says Pieper is rejoining the governor's office staff as a legal and policy adviser.
Downing is the fifth person to lead the Economic Development department since Nixon became governor in 2009.
The department has been without a permanent director since David Kerr resigned at the end of 2011. Nixon appointed Jason Hall as Kerr's replacement, but Hall failed to win Senate confirmation, and Nixon has used an acting director since then.

My 4 week old sleeps about 22 hours a day!!!
My 4 week old would rather sleep then eat or anything else!! I am waking her every 2-3 hours during the day to feed her and every 4 at night. Right now she is nursing and getting supplemented with formula (due to a low milk supply). Is this normal? I expected newborns to cry a lot or something.. First-time mom!!! I am assuming she is getting enough because she has plenty of wet diapers but she is only pooping every three days and when she does its like peanut butter.

I too have a 4 week old and she sleeps 22 to 23 hours a day only time she wakes up is when I wake to feed her and then soon as she's done feeding she falls back to sleep doc told me enjoy it while I can because it won't last.posted 01/22/2016 by a BabyCenter Member
A newborn may sleep as much as 16 hours a day (or even more), often in stretches of 3 to 4 hours at a time. And like the sleep all of us experience, babies have different phases of sleep: drowsiness, REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, light sleep, deep sleep, and very deep sleep. As babies grow, their periods of wakefulness increase. Just make sure she is getting plenty to eat, the stool sounds normal, and will increase the more she eats.posted 04/23/2012 by Tammy137
Its just normal and you are so lucky to have such a calm baby! touchwood! Growth process happens when they sleep, so its good !posted 04/23/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

Low RPI rating virtually means a loss in Las Vegas will keep the Aztecs from Big Dance
They won the conference regular season title and swept the individual honors, but now San Diego State's women's basketball team has one more deal to settle — the Mountain West Tournament starting today in Las Vegas.
Conference Coach of the Year Beth Burns, a true realist and not one to sugarcoat anything, knows her young team must win all three MWC Tournament games to advance to the NCAA Tournament. The Aztecs, because of a low RPI rating (94 or 95 depending on the site), must win to gain one of 64 berths in the Big Dance. Otherwise, the Aztecs go to the Little Dance, the WNIT, for which they qualified by winning the MW's regular-season title.
"We've had to play to win every game," Burns said. "We know we're 0-0 and this begins the survive-and-advance part of your season. The only way we can guarantee ourselves is to win (the MW Tournament)."
One bracket prediction has the Aztecs as a 14 seed opening the first round of the NCAA Tournament in Spokane against No. 3-seed Penn State. The regional is in Fresno if the Aztecs advance to the Sweet 16 as they did two seasons ago.
This year the Aztecs went 22-6 overall, 12-2 in the conference. Their two league losses were at Colorado State on Feb. 25 and at TCU on Feb. 4. They finished the season with 11 straight wins at Viejas Arena. But all that is history when they open at noon today with Air Force. If they win, they face the winner of the TCU-Wyoming game on Friday in the conference semifinals.
The Falcons won their last game of the season at home against New Mexico to earn their first win in the conference. Air Force finished 6-23 overall and 1-13 in the MWC. SDSU beat Air Force 75-62 there on Jan. 21 and 59-46 at Viejas Arena on Feb. 18.
Burns doesn't fear her team overlooking Air Force because she said there's a "healthy competitiveness between the sides.
"We have great leadership, and we take care of the basketball," she said of a team that leads the league with a plus-3 turnover margin. "Kalena Tutt and Gabby Clark, two players who have been in the end zone before, they understand that we have to beat Air Force before we do anything. We're not afraid to take and make big shots. We're excellent free-throw shooters (72.1 percent overall, 74.5 percent in league), and I think in 12 of 14 (MWC) games we controlled both backboards."
Anyone looking at SDSU's full statistical sheet might think the team is unbalanced with MWC Player of the Year Courtney Clements the only Aztec in double figures with an average of 17.3 points per game (17.9 in 14 conference games). USD, in its 56-45 win over the Aztecs, held Clements to 13 points on a night when Chelsea Hopkins played just 15 minutes due to foul trouble. Clements says teams just can't focus on stopping her from scoring.
"I don't feel any pressure because if they were to shut me down, it opens it up for Chelsea and for Kiyana (Stamps)," Clements said. "And there's Malia Nahinu, who is 6-foot-6. I wouldn't guard her one-on-one if I were another team."
Hopkins, the Las Vegas native who transferred to SDSU from Duke and made the all-conference, first team with Clements, is the key to the Aztecs' success. Clements said Hopkins is the team's MVP. She sets the tempo, runs the team and often leads them on fast-break baskets off rebounds. She leads the team in rebounding with 5.7 boards a game, in assists with 6.5 per game and is second to Clements in scoring with 9.9 points a game.
"This is honestly why I came to San Diego State," Hopkins said. "The program was heading in the right direction. I knew I'd get an opportunity to go home and play in front of my family. I'm excited for the opportunity and excited for the week and hopefully to get this championship on Saturday."

T5 Lighting Opinion Wanted.
Hello everyone!
I am thinking about changing my T5 bulbs out for URI bulbs.
I have a Current Nova Extreme Pro 36" fixture currently with 4 actinic bulbs and 2 daylights.
I am thinking about putting 4 super actinics and 2 75 x 25s.
What do you guys think? Anyone tried this? How are the results? Is it worth spending the money?
Anybody have any picture comparisons?
Just looking for any opinions, it is going to cost quite a bit so I want to make sure it will be worth it.
Thanks a lot!
sounds like alot of blue to me.
color is personal pref. but i prefer a close to even mix of 10Ks and actinics. i personally would include atleast two 10K bulbs in there, i think URI makes 14Ks too which are more blue then the 10s.
I'll agree with OF2F, too much blue. Color is not just a personal preference though. The corals will grow much better under a lower spectrum. I'd recommend (if you like the blue) you go with 2 10000k bulbs, 2 14000k bulbs, and 2 Actinic bulbs. The zooanthelle algae, which not only provide the photosynthetic corals with their sugars but also give the corals their colors, will flourish much better with the 10000k bulbs. I would strongly believe you will see a dramatic improvement in the health, growth, and overall appearance of your corals with this bulb scheme.
another way to put it is, youll see alot of growth with 6500K bulbs, the issue is that corals look bland and colorless and algae grows wild at this kelvin too. 20,000K will make your corals grow very slow but the colors "pop" more. a good medium is the 10, 12 and 14K bulbs.

Doing the bad weather drive
With the weather sitting down on us literally like impending doom, I often get scared while driving. After all, in the dark recesses of Bureau County it can be difficult to see at night, even when things are perfectly clear. Any good defensive driver bases what they do on the behavior of other motorists on the road. At night, that can be a hard thing to do if folks have forgotten to turn on their lights.

Prosecutors have dropped all charges against a Colorado Springs man who had been accused of using satellite technology to stalk his wife.
Michael Carlson was arrested on February eleventh and briefly jailed on a thousand dollar bond on suspicion of stalking, harassment and false imprisonment. Police had said Carlson's wife told them he planted a G.P.S. device in her car to track her movements.
The El Paso County district attorney's office dropped the felony stalking charge eleven days later. Prosecutors then filed misdemeanor domestic violence charges, which were later dismissed at the request of Carlson's wife.
Carlson says his wife had given him permission to install the G.P.S. device because the couple had been having marital problems and was working to rebuild trust.
Sergeant Tim Stankey says he believes it was the first arrest in the area for stalking with a G.P.S. device.
