US unemployment claims hit 4-year low of 357K
By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
The number of people seeking U.S. unemployment benefits fell to a four-year low last week, suggesting employers kept hiring in March at a healthy pace.
Weekly applications dropped 6,000 to a seasonally adjusted 357,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. That's the fewest since April 2008.
Interesting, but somehow someone won't give Obama the credit.

Lori & Grayson ~ The Sullivans #8
Sign up for Bella's Newsletter
smashwords edition
After a tragic loss three years ago, Grayson Tyler left his life in New York City behind and started over in the rolling hills of the California coast. He's convinced himself that all he'll ever need again is the blue sky, a thousand acres of pasture, and the crashing waves of the ocean. Until one day, Lori Sullivan barges into his life and promptly blows his emotionless and solitary world to shreds, driving him crazy as only a woman nicknamed Naughty can. But will Lori be able to convince him that it's safe to love her...and that forever isn't actually out of reach?
The first time Lori Sullivan opened her mouth, she made me laugh. Over the years, I've written strong heroines, sassy heroines, and sweet heroines, but I've never written anyone quite like Lori. Naughty has never been afraid to take a risk. Even after failing. And even when it turns out that falling in love just might be the biggest risk of all.

Hi and thanks for looking!
I have a workflow that constructs a set of dictionaries, each with identical KEYS, but (of course) various VALUES. After these dictionaries are constructed, they are added to a common list. I need to order that list based on a particular KEY in each dictionary.
I am using C#, .NET 4, LINQ, Lambdas, etc.
How do I order a list of dictionaries based on a common key property in each dictionary? For example if I have the code below, how do I order based on the "Color" key?
IDictionary<String, object> item1 = new Dictionary<String, object>{"Color","Red"};
IDictionary<String, object> item2 = new Dictionary<String, object>{"Color","Blue"};
IDictionary<String, object> item3 = new Dictionary<String, object>{"Color","Green"};
var dictionaryList = new List<IDictionary<String, object>>();
var orderedList = dictionaryList.OrderBy[??????];

text: Rich Johnson is Auburn?s best choice for Placer County District 5 supervisor. Here?s why. No other candidate has more knowledge, more interest and more dedication to the citizens of Auburn than Rich Johnson. He and his wife, Peg, have lived in Auburn for 26 years. Since retiring six years ago from a 20-year career as district ranger of the Tahoe National Forest, Rich has been deeply involved in Placer County government, serving for six years as District 5 commissioner on the Placer County Planning Commission. Like he did as district ranger, he goes out and ?walks the ground.? He visits the site of zoning applications, asks questions, confers with constituents and votes intelligently with a balance between property rights and public interests. Rich Johnson is well-known and respected by other Placer County officials, including department heads and staff. He exhibits a collaborative style that promotes a win-win for both sides of controversial decisions. An efficient Placer County/Auburn interface is critical, and Rich is best positioned to make that happen, unlike other candidates who live far away along I-80 and have their own provincial interests. Rich is the only candidate who lives in Auburn, which will occupy much of his attention as supervisor. He?s the only candidate who is so knowledgeable, so informed and so concerned about the needs of Auburn and all of District 5. Auburn deserves a local resident as supervisor and Rich Johnson deserves Auburn?s vote on June 5. Neil Cochran, Foresthill

The name of the theater complex, including an adjacent office building called "Kabukiza Tower," is GINZA KABUKIZA. The name of the facility expressed in alphabet letters shows the Kabuki world's will to promote abroad the traditional art of Japan with over 400 years of history. Kabuki, operated by Shochiku Co., Ltd., is not only a renowned traditional form of Japanese theater but also it has been constantly increasing popularity even in this fast-paced day and age.Since a number of people from overseas visit to see Kabuki performances, we offer rental service for an English earphone guide device which provides information in English, including dialogue, lyrics, explanations about stories, music, dance, and properties and other aspects of Kabuki during performances. Also, reasonably priced tickets for a single act called Hitomaku-mi are available at prices ranging from 1,000 yen to 2,000 yen approximately. Besides the theater, the Kabukiza gallery (opening on April 24, located on 5th floor) is accessible without Kabuki tickets if you purchase the ticket for around 500 yen. We are planning to hold costume exhibitions and other Japanese culture-related events. Visitors can also enjoy photo shoots in Kabuki costumes at the photo studio on the 5th floor. And the Kobikicho square, a Japanese-styled underground area has souvenir shops and it is suitable for a meeting place.

We're having our first garage sale this weekend.
How much in change to I need to get from the bank? We're selling big and small items and will not be taking checks.
Any other words of advice?
We're having our first garage sale this weekend.
How much in change to I need to get from the bank? We're selling big and small items and will not be taking checks.
Any other words of advice?
I like CHICKENS!
I got 20 $1s, 5 $5s, a roll of quarters, a roll of dimes, and a roll of nickles. If you are doing larger items then maybe a $20 and a couple $10s just in case.
Mom of Sean 14, Jazmyne 12, Kaydence 8, Meredyth 7, Ethan 4 and Llllian 2
When my mom has done them she has always sworn to have around 100.00 in change since there is always the chance for big items that someone will drop a 50 or 100 bill on a purchase..
What sort of stuff are you selling and what sort of pricing do you have ? I think that would have a lot to do with change...
Mom to 4 angels ♥ One watching over us from Heaven ♥ Casey 4/8/92~3/18/10 ♥ and three here on Earth ♥ Allyson (17) ♥ Abigail (17) ♥ Bryce (7) ♥
I'm selling a lot of dh's clothes, bicycles, might have some furniture, lots of ds' old toys and stuff. I don't think anything will be over $50 but we might.
I like CHICKENS!
It seems like every time I have a yard sale the first person that comes along pays for .50 worth of stuff with a $20. Grrr. I always have a handful of 1's, 5's, a 10 or two and change.
I would do 100.00 in change
and a roll of quarters
Life is hard, I am taking it one photograph at a time...
DD Lu 04/25/2008�
I was going to post the same thing next week. Were decluttering house now and are aiming for a garage sale next weekend. Glad I stumbled on this one :)
Happily Married 11/26/99.
Mom to Kristin 9/2/03 & Logan 12/27/08.
I do my best spell checking after I hit send.
I agree with the $100 in change - 20's 10's 5's 1's quarters, dimes, nickles unless you don't have stuff that is .10cents or lower than maybe just one roll??!!
I did Sundance's idea, but 2 $10s and 20 $1s.
I hate when people use my change to break a $20 by buying something cheap. Hello, you're going to yard sale, stop at the WaWa for a cup of coffee and break your $20
I agree to have about $100 worth in change. (10's, 5's, and 1's) No 20's, you always get people with 20's. I hate pennies and change....so I would price my cheapest item in quarter amounts .25 or .50. That way you only need to get a roll of quarters.
I just had a garage sale this past weekend and we also started with $100 in change. My friend and I had a lot of things priced at 25, 50 and 75 cents, so we went through quarters pretty fast. If your clothes are priced that cheap, I'd have 2 rolls of quarters just to be on the safe side. I'd also have maybe $40 in $1 bills. People stop at the ATM machine and get $20s and then come to the sale.
Only one other tip: price things CHEAP!!! If you really want to declutter and get rid of stuff, price it low. I sold NB-6/8 girls clothes and went from 9 huge bins of clothes to 2 in a 2 day sale. Pretty much all that is left is fall/winter clothes.
Good luck!
Married to Mike since 10/5/01
Mom to Paige since 5/12/04

Many groups were overweight agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS) as they believe the Fed will keep prices supported to avoid any rise in mortgage rates slowing the housing market again. Although agency pass-throughs are negative convexity instruments, most managers believe any rise in volatility this year will be associated with politics and will be temporary. Many managers also had small amounts of commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) on which they were starting to take profits. However, T Rowe Price is letting its MBS positions diminish naturally and reinvesting in asset-backed securities to reduce the pre-payment risk.Media Contact:

Hosmer, Francoeur hit HRs in Royals' win over A's
Wednesday, September 7, 2011
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Danny Duffy ended his rookie season with Kansas City by winning in the same ballpark where he earned his first victory in the big leagues nearly three months ago.
There just weren't as many supporters around to enjoy this one.
Duffy, who grew up about three hours south of the Oakland Coliseum, allowed only four hits and struck out four over 6 1/3 innings and got plenty of support from his teammates in the Royals' 7-4 win over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday.
"It's always nice to end on a high note, no matter where I'm at," said Duffy, who also beat the A's here on June 14. "This is like any other park. As long as our team comes out on top, then I'm pretty happy."
Duffy will have a long time to cherish his outing.
Kansas City is shutting the 22-year-old left-hander down for the remainder of the season. He has already logged more than 147 innings between the big leagues and minors this year and threw a season-high 119 pitches to beat the A's.
The only problems Duffy had came as a result of minor command issues. He walked three batters, and all three scored.
"I was real proud of the way he went about his business," Kansas City manager Ned Yost said. "He had the two walks (in the third) then really got on the attack from that point on. It's a good one for him to finish on."
Duffy even survived getting hit by a line drive off the bat of Scott Sizemore in the sixth. He hopped off the mound, calmly retrieved the ball then made an underhand toss to first for the out.
A small crowd of about 20 family and friends sitting down the first base line stood and cheered.
"Last time I had about 150 so it was a nice little wind down," Duffy said. "It's something to build on for next year."
Eric Hosmer and Jeff Francoeur hit back-to-back home runs in the second inning for Kansas City. Salvador Perez added three hits while six players drove in runs for the Royals, who have scored 29 runs in their last three road games.
Gio Gonzalez (12-12) took the loss after allowing a career-high 10 hits and walking three for the A's.
"They were getting hits off the end of the bat and scoring runs on them," Gonzalez said. "I felt like I made quality pitches but came up short on my end."
Jemille Weeks had three hits and two RBIs for Oakland, which has dropped two straight after sweeping Seattle over the weekend.
The A's tried to make it close late.
In the ninth, Oakland loaded the bases and Royals closer Joakim Soria walked Cliff Pennington to force in a run before getting Hideki Matsui to ground out to end it. It's Soria's 26th save of the season.
Gonzalez had won his previous three starts and needed only six pitches to get through the first inning against Kansas City. It turned out to be the highlight of his night.
After Hosmer and Francoeur went back-to-back, Johnny Giavotella and Perez both hit sharp singles. Yamaico Navarro followed with a long fly ball that sailed over the head of right fielder Michael Taylor but Giavotella waited at second to tag up and only advanced to third.
Alcides Escobar's infield single drove in Giavotella, then Perez scored on Alex Gordon's groundout to make it 4-0.
Duffy almost gave it all back when he walked the first two batters in the third and gave up an RBI double to Weeks. Pennington added a single to drive in Anthony Recker and cut the gap to 4-2.
Kansas City, which batted around in the second, did it again in the fifth to chase Gonzalez, who had allowed only nine hits over two previous starts against the Royals this season. Perez and Navarro both had RBIs in the inning while Gordon drew a bases-loaded walk to give the Royals a 7-2 lead.
Francoeur finished with three hits and became the first player in the majors with at least 40 doubles and 20 stolen bases.
"That's very encouraging, to see the offense the way that it's producing now," Yost said. "We come to the park every night thinking that we're going to score some runs, and that's a good feeling."
Weeks added an RBI single in the seventh for Oakland.
NOTES: Hosmer went 2 for 5 and fell one hit shy of becoming the first rookie in Royals history to have three or more hits in four consecutive road games. ... A's CF Coco Crisp was scratched from the starting lineup about an hour before the game. No reason was given by the team why Crisp was removed but he missed the previous two games because of a sore right foot. Crisp fouled a ball off the foot during Saturday's game against Seattle. ... LHP Bruce Chen (10-6) pitches in the series finale for Kansas City on Wednesday. Chen allowed five runs over six innings in his previous start against Cleveland, snapping a career-best five-game winning streak. RHP Guillermo Moscoso (7-8) goes for the A's. Moscoso has allowed one earned run or fewer in eight of his 17 starts this season. ... Home plate umpire Bob Davidson was hit near his right wrist by a pitch from Duffy in the second inning but stayed in the game after being looked at an A's trainer. ... Oakland Raiders linebacker Quentin Groves was among the announced crowd of 12,064.

Did you get them while you were pregnant? I got them with my last pregnancy but they went away after he was born. I have them back again (I'm 23wks) and they are worse than last time. They go from inside my vagina all the way down my right leg to my ankle! Will they go away again or am I doomed to them for life? They are really making sex painful as well, is that "normal" for that?
sigh. I love being pregnant. I love being pregnant. :P

SIDS happens.
I originally noticed one during my fourth pregnancy and they have gotten more plentiful during each following pregnancy to the point where, during my seventh pregnancy, they began during the first trimester. They go away after baby is born. It is normal to have discomfort with vulvar varicosities.

Why Are You Not Dead Yet?
Life expectancy doubled in the past 150 years. Here's why.
Closely related were technologies to move wastewater away from cities, but as Grob points out in The Deadly Truth, the first sewage systems made the transmission of fecal-borne diseases worse. Lacking an understanding of germs, people thought that dilution was the best solution and just piped their sewage into nearby waterways. Unfortunately, the sewage outlets were often near the water system inlets. Finally understanding that sewage and drinking water need to be completely separated, Chicago built a drainage canal that in 1900 reversed the flow of the Chicago River. The city thus sent its sewage into the greater Mississippi watershed and continued taking its drinking water from Lake Michigan.
The germ theory of disease didn't catch on all that quickly, but once it did, people started washing their hands. Soap became cheaper and more widespread, and people suddenly had a logical reason to wash up before surgery, after defecating, before eating. Soap stops both deadly and lingering infections; even today, kids who don't have access to soap and clean water have stunted growth.
Housing, especially in cities, was crowded, filthy, poorly ventilated, dank, stinky, hot in the summer, and cold in the winter. These were terrible conditions to live in as a human being, but a great place to be an infectious microbe. Pretty much everyone was infected with tuberculosis (the main cause of consumption), the leading killer for most of the 19th century. It still has a bit of a reputation as a disease of the young, beautiful, and poetic (it claimed Frederic Chopin and Henry David Thoreau, not to mention Mimì in La Bohème), but it was predominantly a disease of poverty, and there was nothing romantic about it. As economic conditions started improving in the 19th century, more housing was built, and it was airier, brighter (sunlight kills tuberculosis bacteria), more weather-resistant, and less hospitable to vermin and germs.
We live like kings today—we have upholstered chairs, clean beds, a feast's worth of calories at any meal, all the nutmeg (people once killed for it) and salt we could ever want. But wealth and privilege didn't save royalty from early deaths. Microbes do care about breeding—some people have evolved defenses against cholera, malaria, and possibly the plague—but microbes killed off people without regard to class distinctions through the 1600s in Europe. The longevity gap between the rich and the poor grew slowly with the introduction of effective health measures that only the rich could afford: Ipecac from the New World to stop bloody diarrhea, condoms made of animal intestines to prevent the transmission of syphilis, quinine from the bark of the cinchona tree to treat malaria. Once people realized citrus could prevent scurvy, the wealthy built orangeries—greenhouses where they grew the life-saving fruit.
Improving the standard of living is one important life-extending factor. The earliest European settlers in North America suffered from mass starvation initially, but once the Colonies were established, they had more food and better nutrition than people in England. During the Revolutionary War era, American soldiers were a few inches taller than their British foes. In Europe, the wealthy were taller than the poor, but there were no such class-related differences in America—which means most people had enough to eat. This changed during the 1800s, when the population expanded and immigrants moved to urban areas. Average height declined, but farmers were taller than laborers. People in rural areas outlived those in cities by about 10 years, largely due to less exposure to contagious disease but also because they had better nutrition. Diseases of malnutrition were common among the urban poor: scurvy (vitamin C deficiency), rickets (vitamin D deficiency), and pellagra (a niacin deficiency). Improved nutrition at the end of the 1800s made people taller, healthier, and longer lived; fortified foods reduced the incidence of vitamin-deficiency disorders.
Contaminated food was one of the greatest killers, especially of infants; once they stopped breast-feeding, their food could expose them to typhoid fever, botulism, salmonella, and any number of microbes that caused deadly diarrhea in young children. (Death rates for infants were highest in the summer, evidence that they were dying of food contaminated by microbes that thrive in warm conditions.) Refrigeration, public health drives for pure and pasteurized milk, and an understanding of germ theory helped people keep their food safe. The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 made it a crime to sell adulterated food, introduced labeling laws, and led to government meat inspection and the creation of the Food and Drug Administration.
People had started finding ways to fight disease epidemics in the early 1700s, mostly by isolating the sick and inoculating the healthy. The United States suffered fewer massive epidemics than Europe did, where bubonic plague (the Black Death) periodically burned through the continent and killed one-third of the population. Low population density prevented most epidemics from becoming widespread early in the United States history, but epidemics did cause mass deaths locally, especially as the population grew and more people lived in crowded cities. Yellow fever killed hundreds of people in Savannah in 1820 and 1854; the first devastating cholera epidemic hit the country in 1832. Port cities suffered some of the worst outbreaks because sailors brought new diseases and strains with them from all over the world. Port cities instituted quarantines starting in the 19th century, preventing sailors from disembarking if there was any evidence of disease, and on land, quarantines separated contagious people from the uninfected.
A smallpox epidemic in Boston in 1721 led to a huge debate about variolation, a technique that involved transferring pus from an infected person to a healthy one to cause a minor reaction that confers immunity. Rev. Cotton Mather was for it—he said it was a gift from God. Those opposed said that disease was God's will. People continued to fight about variolation, then inoculation (with the related cowpox virus, introduced in the late 1700s), and finally vaccination. The fight over God's will and the dangers of vaccinations (real in the past, imaginary today) are still echoing.
In the early 1900s, antitoxins to treat diphtheria and vaccines against diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis helped stop these deadly diseases, followed by vaccines for mumps, measles, polio, and rubella.
Anne Schuchat, assistant surgeon general and the acting director of CDC's Center for Global Health, says it's not just the scientific invention of vaccines that saved lives, but the "huge social effort to deliver them to people improved health, extended life, and kept children alive." Vaccines have almost eliminated diseases that used to be common killers, but she points out that "they're still circulating in other parts of the world, and if we don't continue to vaccinate, they could come back."
Vaccines have been so effective that most people in the developed world don't know what it's like to watch a child die of pertussis or measles, but parents whose children have contracted these diseases because of anti-vaccine paranoia can tell them. "The mistake that we made was that we underestimated the diseases and we totally overestimated the adverse reactions [to vaccines]," says a father in New Zealand whose child almost died of an agonizing bout of tetanus.
Schuchat says the HPV vaccine is a huge priority now; only one-third of teenage girls have received the full series of three shots required to protect them against viruses that cause cervical cancer. The vaccines "are highly effective and very safe, but our uptake is horrible. Thousands of cases of cervical cancer will occur in a few decades in people who are girls now."
Some credit for the historical decrease in deadly diseases may go to the disease agents themselves. The microbes that cause rheumatic fever, scarlet fever, and a few other diseases may have evolved to become less deadly. Evolutionarily, that makes sense—it's no advantage to a parasite to kill its own host, and less-deadly strains may have spread more readily in the human population. Of course, sudden evolutionary change in microbes can go the other way, too: The pandemic influenza of 1918–19 was a new strain that killed more people than any disease outbreak in history—around 50 million. In any battle between microbes and mammals, the smart money is on the microbes.
Over the next week, we'll take a closer look at deaths in childbirth and changes in life expectancy in adulthood. We'll examine the evolution of old age and the social repercussions of having infants that survive and a robust population of old people, and we'll list some of the oddball, underappreciated innovations that may have saved your life.
