i've had varying success with drive-thrus...
In Texas (mostly Austin and Houston) about half the time they just looked at me really funny and served me and about half the time refused to serve me quoting 'corporate policy' and would require that i come inside (i often had no lock so i would bring it inside and sometimes got trouble with that too). A few times late at night when inside was closed i was simply refused service - one time as i was arguing that as a cyclist i had the same road rights as a car and should thus be able to use the drive-thru and should not have to go home and then get my car and drive 2 blocks to the Taco Bell to get served, some guy waiting behind me just said 'jump in' and i ordered from his car and then got back on my bike...
in Massachusetts i usually got served in the drive-thru, but i think only b/c bikes were so rare the workers weren't aware of 'corporate policy' and i of course never reminded them.
in bike-friendly Portland most of the drive-thrus quoted their 'corporate policy' of no bicycles in the drive-thru b/c of 'safety issues' which they were never too clear on.
i iniquired as to what this means and was told that cyclists or pedestrians were a robbery threat to the workers --- come on how is it easier to pull a gun on someone or threaten someone from a bicycle than from a motor vehicle? the only difference is that the car SHOULD have a license plate, but anyone robbing a drive-thru should be smart enough to cover or change the plate (uh, well, maybe not?)
anyway, with a particulat Taco Bell right by my house in Portland i was about 90% refused service except for when one guy was working and his manager wasn't there (he was a cyclist). one time late at night when only the drive-thru was open i was refused service and i had to ride home, get in my car, drive 4 blocks and was then served ---- but i find that utterly ridiculous, especially as i believe in using cars as little as possible in urban areas and their policy REQUIRES that i use my car, regardless of how convenient walking or cycling may be.
then i wrote to the Taco Bell Corporate office since i was told that was who made the rule. they sent back some generic form letter "thank you for your input and we value your business and your comments and will look into it..."
Does anyone know the real reason why the general policy is 'no bikes in the drive-thru'? i suspect that they are afraid of a liablity suit if some idiot car driver runs over a cyclist, but the risks are no greater than riding your bike on the road (less b/c speeds are so low)
as an aside, when i used to use my motorcycle i was NEVER refused service. if it's a safety issue, how are bicycles and motorcyles so different? (yes, motorcycles are registered and should have a valid plate)

Seattle vocalist Felicia Loud is about to go back in time. The Central District resident and current vocalist for hip-hop group Black Stax is starting a month long residency this weekend where she'll be portraying the late blues and jazz singer, Billie Holiday. That's an incredible task to take on but I can't think of any other urban soul singer locally that could pull it off besides her. Just two weeks ago, I watched Loud perform some of her solo songs during the Live at Hidmo series and she's honestly got the ability to make listeners close their eyes and mentally time transport while she sings. That's going to come in handy over the next month as she's scheduled to perform a limited run of 14 performance as part of the renowned play, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill running from Sept 11-- October 12.
It's all apart of a three year series that the Strawberry Theatre Workshop is doing on the life of Billie Holiday. If you're a fan of either singer, this is most likely something you don't want to miss. All of the performances take place at the Erickson Theatre off Broadway, and tickets are $25 general admission, and $10 for seniors and students.

A friend and I last night were thinking of cartoons nowadays, and the lies that they are telling the youth of America.
Some examples:
- If you are being mugged, saying your attacker's name three times and telling him "no" will make him snap his fingers and run away.
- David Arquette makes a great parrot, and his career is doing JUST FINE.
- Phineas and Ferb are either independently wealthy children, or their parents just ignore the massive amount of credit card debt they accumulate each day.
- The "come inside, it's fun inside" part of the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme song is innocuous.
- Diego and Dora's parents apparently portray all Latino parents as not paying attention to their child, but instead letting them run off through alligator swamps and creepy forests with only a monkey as a companion.
- Baby jaguars are cuddly pets, they won't rip your face off.
Any others? ETA - wtf is up with my formatting?

Below, you will find an explanation for how the summer reading program works, what you will need to do, and how you will be assessed.
Why do we do this?Reading is a SKILL that you will use the rest of your life, particularly when it comes to your future careers. Some of us associate reading only with a school activity, but many people read for enjoyment (really, it's true. Says so on the internet). We believe that the best way to develop both the skill and love of reading is to expose students to a variety of books, and hopefully, they will find a genre, author, or character they can relate to and keep reading. And HELLO! We're a college prep school. Getting into college isn't just about getting the grades; it is about being prepared for the work load. In college you have to read a lot – a whole lot! (and guess what, a lot of what you read for college isn't summarized on SparkNotes).
Choosing bookS. This year you will be required to read THREE books over the summer. There will be no limits on the number of students who may read a particular book, and you have the option of choosing which books you read. We are providing a list of books as suggestions on the Goodreads website (www.goodreads.com), but you are free to choose other books that you HAVE NOT read. The only other requirement is that it you select age appropriate books. Curious George and Charlotte's Web, for example are great for pre-teens, but not for this. Really, it's that simple. We hope that you will find books that are interesting and engaging, and if you want more suggestions, ask your teachers, parents, and friends, or maybe check out Amazon.com for some ideas!
AP and Honors English students will also need to read a total of three books, but those students will have required reading from the AP and Honors teachers. If you are going into AP or Honors English next year, see links above to letters from your English teacher for next year.
Author Visit: Gene Luen Yang will be coming to Jesuit this November. Gene, graphic novelist, has written several graphic novels including Printz Award winner American Born Chinese. Gene's next project is writing Superman for DC Comics. Check our Goodreads list for a selection of Gene's books.
Is this graded?You betcha! You will be graded over your summer reading. When you return to school next fall, your English teacher will collect the attached form that lists the book you read. Your teacher may then have you write an assignment related to summer reading that will be worth a grade. Each teacher will have his/her own method for assessing you, although in most cases it will involve an essay or some type of writing assignment (and you can bet that summarizing SparkNotes won't be an option).
If you have questions regarding summer reading, please ask an English teacher or Mr. Lum.
T-shirt bonus! As part of our desire to encourage reading, we have the summer reading challenge. Any student who reads 2,015 pages or ten books will receive a t-shirt, which was specially designed by Reagan Rundle. Your parents must verify that you have read the books, and you can pass along that info to the library. Thank you to BC Graphics for supplying the t-shirts! For more details stop by the library!

Rapper Prince Ea from St. Louis just put ( . . . OK, put out a month ago [h/t Ricky Pharoe]) this video that I've played quite a few times this morning, trying to catch Ea slipping on the lyrics, but I can't, because he doesn't. The reborn conscious lyricist (a couple of years ago he was rapping "Somebody tell Asher fuckin' Roth I hate college") lays down a quick verse here which is first about getting money, drinkin' bubbly, then about going to school and downplaying the importance of material success when the tape is rewound.
It's all part of a "movement", or at least a clothing line, but either way, I think it's a good look. Ea is a fairly gifted lyricist, and I'd rather hear him spit raps about getting smart than about "pickin' up chicks, giving them the A.I.D.S. virus."

ATLANTA -- A former Fulton County sheriff's deputy was fined $3,000 and sentenced to two years in federal prison Thursday on cocaine trafficking charges.
Everett Meadows, 33, of Alpharetta also was sentenced to three years of supervised release. He pleaded guilty in March to charges of conspiracy to possess with intention to distribute and distribution of cocaine.
Mr. Meadows, a jailer at the time of the offense, and Scott Byers conspired to distribute cocaine in transactions arranged through a confidential informant in the Atlanta area in 1995, federal authorities said.
Mr. Byers, convicted as a co-conspirator, was fined $2,000 and sentenced to 21 months in prison and five years of supervised released.

Why Military Spending Remains Untouchable
Soldiers offer much-needed assurance that old-fashioned values still survive.
Cultural Dissonance: The rise of the Tea Party movement should disabuse any American of the thought that the cleavages produced by the "culture wars" have healed. The cultural upheaval touched off by the 1960s and centered on Vietnam remains unfinished business in this country.
Among other things, the sixties destroyed an American consensus, forged during World War II, about the meaning of patriotism. During the so-called Good War, love of country implied, even required, deference to the state, shown most clearly in the willingness of individuals to accept the government's authority to mandate military service. GI's, the vast majority of them draftees, were the embodiment of American patriotism, risking life and limb to defend the country.
The GI of World War II had been an American Everyman. Those soldiers both represented and reflected the values of the nation from which they came (a perception affirmed by the ironic fact that the military adhered to prevailing standards of racial segregation). It was "our army" because that army was "us."
With Vietnam, things became more complicated. The war's supporters argued that the World War II tradition still applied: patriotism required deference to the commands of the state. Opponents of the war, especially those facing the prospect of conscription, insisted otherwise. They revived the distinction, formulated a generation earlier by the radical journalist Randolph Bourne, that distinguished between the country and the state. Real patriots, the ones who most truly loved their country, were those who opposed state policies they regarded as misguided, illegal, or immoral.
In many respects, the soldiers who fought the Vietnam War found themselves caught uncomfortably in the center of this dispute. Was the soldier who died in Vietnam a martyr, a tragic figure, or a sap? Who deserved greater admiration: the soldier who fought bravely and uncomplainingly or the one who served and then turned against the war? Or was the war resister – the one who never served at all – the real hero?
War's end left these matters disconcertingly unresolved. President Richard Nixon's 1971 decision to kill the draft in favor of an All-Volunteer Force, predicated on the notion that the country might be better served with a military that was no longer "us," only complicated things further. So, too, did the trends in American politics where bona fide war heroes (George H.W. Bush, Bob Dole, John Kerry, and John McCain) routinely lost to opponents whose military credentials were non-existent or exceedingly slight (Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama), yet who demonstrated once in office a remarkable propensity for expending American blood (none belonging to members of their own families) in places like Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan. It was all more than a little unseemly.
Patriotism, once a simple concept, had become both confusing and contentious. What obligations, if any, did patriotism impose? And if the answer was none – the option Americans seemed increasingly to prefer – then was patriotism itself still a viable proposition?
Wanting to answer that question in the affirmative – to distract attention from the fact that patriotism had become little more than an excuse for fireworks displays and taking the occasional day off from work – people and politicians alike found a way to do so by exalting those Americans actually choosing to serve in uniform. The thinking went this way: soldiers offer living proof that America is a place still worth dying for, that patriotism (at least in some quarters) remains alive and well; by common consent, therefore, soldiers are the nation's "best," committed to "something bigger than self" in a land otherwise increasingly absorbed in pursuing a material and narcissistic definition of self-fulfillment.
In effect, soldiers offer much-needed assurance that old-fashioned values still survive, even if confined to a small and unrepresentative segment of American society. Rather than Everyman, today's warrior has ascended to the status of icon, deemed morally superior to the nation for which he or she fights, the repository of virtues that prop up, however precariously, the nation's increasingly sketchy claim to singularity.
Politically, therefore, "supporting the troops" has become a categorical imperative across the political spectrum. In theory, such support might find expression in a determination to protect those troops from abuse, and so translate into wariness about committing soldiers to unnecessary or unnecessarily costly wars. In practice, however, "supporting the troops" has found expression in an insistence upon providing the Pentagon with open-ended drawing rights on the nation's treasury, thereby creating massive barriers to any proposal to affect more than symbolic reductions in military spending.
Misremembered History: The duopoly of American politics no longer allows for a principled anti-interventionist position. Both parties are war parties. They differ mainly in the rationale they devise to argue for interventionism. The Republicans tout liberty; the Democrats emphasize human rights. The results tend to be the same: a penchant for activism that sustains a never-ending demand for high levels of military outlays.
American politics once nourished a lively anti-interventionist tradition. Leading proponents included luminaries such as George Washington and John Quincy Adams. That tradition found its basis not in principled pacifism, a position that has never attracted widespread support in this country, but in pragmatic realism. What happened to that realist tradition? Simply put, World War II killed it – or at least discredited it. In the intense and divisive debate that occurred in 1939-1941, the anti-interventionists lost, their cause thereafter tarred with the label "isolationism."
The passage of time has transformed World War II from a massive tragedy into a morality tale, one that casts opponents of intervention as blackguards. Whether explicitly or implicitly, the debate over how the United States should respond to some ostensible threat – Iraq in 2003, Iran today – replays the debate finally ended by the events of December 7, 1941. To express skepticism about the necessity and prudence of using military power is to invite the charge of being an appeaser or an isolationist. Few politicians or individuals aspiring to power will risk the consequences of being tagged with that label.
In this sense, American politics remains stuck in the 1930s – always discovering a new Hitler, always privileging Churchillian rhetoric – even though the circumstances in which we live today bear scant resemblance to that earlier time. There was only one Hitler and he's long dead. As for Churchill, his achievements and legacy are far more mixed than his battalions of defenders are willing to acknowledge. And if any one figure deserves particular credit for demolishing Hitler's Reich and winning World War II, it's Josef Stalin, a dictator as vile and murderous as Hitler himself.
Until Americans accept these facts, until they come to a more nuanced view of World War II that takes fully into account the political and moral implications of the US alliance with the Soviet Union and the US campaign of obliteration bombing directed against Germany and Japan, the mythic version of "the Good War" will continue to provide glib justifications for continuing to dodge that perennial question: How much is enough?
Like concentric security barriers arrayed around the Pentagon, these four factors – institutional self-interest, strategic inertia, cultural dissonance, and misremembered history – insulate the military budget from serious scrutiny. For advocates of a militarized approach to policy, they provide invaluable assets, to be defended at all costs.

My Reasons for Reporting This


text:
"Journalism, news reporting really, was all I ever wanted to do as kid growing up in Oklahoma," says Greg Shaw. He worked as a high-school stringer for his hometown newspaper, the Tulsa World, and paid for college working at the Cherokee Advocate, the tribal paper of the Cherokee Nation. But there the journalism trial ended. He went on to write speeches for the Department of the Interior, became a media rep for Microsoft, then joined the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Now, back to that dream: This morning, Shaw was named publisher-to-be of Crosscut.com, taking over for founder David Brewster in September.
His first mission, of course, is to save Crosscut. As Brewster said last month, despite recent downsizing and fundraising, his respected news and commentary website is struggling to survive. "We could lose Crosscut, just as the region has lost the print Post-Intelligencer and the Eastside Journal and numerous other websites that have tried to partially fill these voids."
The site has been operating on what Brewster calls cost-cutting summer hours, with fewer contributors and stories, temporarily reducing staff. "We need the period to refuel the venture and to develop a new plan and new leadership for Crosscut." He was also searching for his replacement, and the job was reportedly offered to ex-P-I managing editor David McCumber (who couldn't be reached for comment).
But Shaw is delighted to take a crack at it, including helping devise a new business model. "I am committed to doing all that I can," he says. "Our situation is not desperate, but it is urgent. Recent financial commitments to Crosscut are encouraging but not yet sufficient."
Brewster, Seattle Weekly's former publisher, says he was looking for a replacement who had a "change-the-world" mentality about work and social change.
"Obviously, you don't work at places such as Microsoft and the Gates Foundation without picking up this orientation," Brewster says. "My hope would be a reinvigorated, much more impactful Crosscut that marries the civic generation that I grew up reporting about, and the Next Seattle readers, movers, and shakers. Who better than Greg to pull this off?"
Brewster will continue to write for Crosscut after he semi-retires in mid-September, and will remain on the Xcut board of directors. Another hire is still in the works to fill a newly created position of Editor of Crosscut, who will report to Shaw.

So I got my hair cut this week. It cost $40. All I did was get it cut, not colored. A cut and color usually runs about $100. But it's back to my natural color and I don't want to keep anything else up, so I didn't color it.
DH actually gave me a hard time about it. He cuts his own hair at home (actually he cuts the front and I do everything else). So he thinks we should be able to do mine at home. *rolls eyes* NOT going to happen.
I also refuse to go to the little shops (like SuperCuts or something). I have long hair and am not going to take the chance that it gets screwed up.
Oh can I add that I only get my hair cut about 4 times a year. It had to wait this year between the wedding and school so I havent' gotten it done since December.
So what is reasonable with regards to haircuts?

Poynter also will work with McClatchy's in-house trainers to help them develop additional programs during this multi-year program. Training will be developed for both the editorial and sales staffs of McClatchy's 30 print and online organizations.

This site will host all of McClatchy's e-learning programs and use NewsU technology to conduct assessments that will measure the value of the training program.

Ultimate Solitaire or Solo Game Battle!
- Tony Ackroyd(1000rpm)United Kingdom
E Sussex
I've trawled a load solo/solitaire geeklists to get the base list of 86 - I required a game to be mentioned on at least 3 lists to add it.
Feel free to add your own suggestions.
The initial order will be based on the number of times the games appeared on the geeklists I used. This will also be used as a tide-breaker, as will ranking if required.
The Battle
Some of these games receive increased ratings due to nostalgia while others that are not just for one player will not be rated purely on the basis of solitaire play. This list attempts to determine the best games to play solitaire!
1. Vote using the green icon for the games you think play well solitaire. Feel free to add comments saying why you like them. ThumbsUp in comments will not be counted.
2. If you strongly dislike a game solitaire then you can add a comment with a or a THUMBSDOWN. Feel free to thumb down if you think the game is not suitable for this list - i.e. not playable solitaire!
I'll regularly review the list and re-sort it based on the Net number of each game has.
The comment for each game is one from a user who rates it highly - not my comments!
Other lists in this 'Battle' Series:
Ultimate Ameritrash Game Battle!
Ultimate 2-Player Game Battle!

thompson, Turmeric Curcumin, 300 mg.
Posted by Reviewer1326730 on May 10, 2009
I used a good product initially, then the company stopped producing it. Then I bought the tumeric from the health food store and noticed it did not work as well. The Thompson Tumeric, which I used as an anti-inflammatory has been great. Clearly a top quality product. Thanks.
Posted by Reviewer2026598 on Nov 11, 2011
Love using this product! I used to have a lot of pain from joints and swollen hands and used Advil to help with the pain and inflamation. Now I just use tumeric and feel great!
Great product!
Posted by sweetheart on May 17, 2013
I use this for headache: a few capsules is enough. It's also a great supplement for those with chronic inflammation.
Good product
Posted by Reviewer1128885 on Aug 14, 2012
I have been using Tumeric on the advice of my holistic health practitioner for my dog who has degenerative disk disease, arthritis and a genetic skin condition. It seems to work as well as the expensive organic powder I was originally buying for him. He does not need any NSAID drugs as long as he gets his homeopathic supplements and his tumeric. Great price too!
good buy
Posted by Reviewer1058619 on Feb 08, 2011
Effective for inflammation. Take with food, it can give you heartburn if you have a sensitive stomach.
I was very happy to find this.
Posted by Reviewer2437163 on Feb 09, 2011
I use it with ginger root capsules to help ease pain and inflammation of arthritis without ibuprofen or acetaminophen. Reasonably priced.
It works

I was using other brands, but Thompson works as well as others, and it's cheaper.

I use turmeric for headaches these days instead of synthetic medicin. Much safer and much better.

On Friday night, in a basement on Capitol Hill, a bunch of Seattle punk/DIY/etc bands who are mostly too young to remember the '90s got together to pay tribute to that decade in popular song. The occasion was a 30th-birthday party for Benji from My Parade (and formerly Bow + Arrow)--happy birhtday, Benji!--so at least one other person there remembered these songs from the first time around. Anyway, jokes, I'm old, kids these days, lawns, etc. It was a really fucking good time.
This was the merch table.
I was in and out--this was a dry/all-ages event, so if you wanted a drink, you had to duck out for a minute and grab one elsewhere--so I missed some reportedly good stuff, including a thrash cover of Nirvana's "Breed" complete with crowd surfing. The first thing I did catch was Neighbors doing a slightly scrappier pop-punk version of Lit's annoyingly catchy "My Own Worst Enemy" (fun fact: the original is largely considered to be one of the earliest egregious uses of AutoTune to mask a lack of talent). There was a cover of the Deftones' "Bored" preceded by much down-tuning of guitars. There was Half Gift doing a naggingly familiar song led by a catchy, discordant guitar hook and female vocals--I should have recognized it; it was the Daria theme song, which they performed with perfect deadpan "excuse me"s and an extended guitar outro.
Nirvana and Fatboy Slim after the jump . . .Haunted Horses played a pretty straight cover of Hole's "Violet," which bled into an unrecognizable take on My Bloody Valentine's "When You Sleep," which transitioned into the Smashing Pumpkins' "Tonight." There was Alanis Morrisette and the Goo Goo Dolls and Veruca Salt. There was one guy rapping Rage Against the Machine's "Bulls on Parade" over a heavily distorted drumbeat, like Zeigenbock Kopf was fucking his laptop to death; halfway through the song he said "I hope you guys like drum and bass, because there's only four words to the whole rest of this song." He closed with the best quip of the night: "Hey, guys, we all love the '90s, right? Remember when the Beastie Boys freed Tibet?"
Moody new-wavish band Stephanie cracked jokes as well, shouting out Soy Bomb, "dancing baby," "Cop Killer," and the Bloodhound Gang, and teasing the bass line of Better than Ezra's "Good" before playing the Smashing Pumpkins' 1979 (complete with drum loop) and the Cranberries' "Dreams" (sadly incomplete without weird Celtic wailing at the end). Secret Colors did a typically ambient, swirled-out version (in the dub sense of the word) on Modest Mouse's "Dramamine." Don't-it-chillwave duo USF did a cover of Fatboy Slim's "Praise You" with a vocal track provided in absentia by Purple and Green diva J. Green; the guys' live loops and percussion fell out of sync for a bit during the bridge, but they managed to pull it back together for the last big rave-up, and it was an endearing kind of sloppiness anyway. The Last Slice of Butter closed the night with a bass and drums take on Nirvana's "In Bloom," a reminder that Kurt was a Melvins fan before he was a rock god.
This was actually the second '90s cover night done at this place, and I'm kicking myself for missing the first one. Apparently that one included, among other things, a cover of Folk Implosion's "Natural One" by dark-groovy punks Flexions, back when they were still a two-piece. That would've been rad. I'm already fantasizing what I'd like to see covered next time.

The close compares with last Friday's 6.3647.

LatamWatch: Argentina Pres Starts 2nd Term; Reserves Recover
* Brazil National Monetary Council Could Ease Macroprudential Measures * Mexico Construction Seen Bolstering Industrial Production
BUENOS AIRES, MEXICO CITY and SAO PAULO, Dec 12 (MNI) - Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner this week starts her second four-year term, possibly with measures to deepen a pro-consumption economic model that has brought steady expansion since 2003.
The president, however, will face challenges in sustaining the growth, with forecasts suggesting expansion could slow to less than 4% next year from an 8% average over the past eight years.
The downturn is a response to a decline in global commodities demand and prices as crises hit the global economy.
Germany's Wholesale Prices Rebound 0.7% M/M In November
November: +0.7% m/m, +4.9% y/y October: -1.0% m/m, +5.0% y/y September: +0.3% m/m, +5.7% y/y August: +0.1% m/m, +6.5% y/y July: -0.6% m/m, +8.2% y/y
FRANKFURT (MNI) - Wholesale prices in Germany rebounded in November, with all major components more expensive, the Federal Statistical Office reported Monday.
After a drop in October, wholesale prices rose 0.7% in November, the biggest jump since March, lifting prices 4.9% on the year.
As Brent crude prices saw a modest recovery on average in November, solid fuel and mineral oil wholesale prices increased 2.5% on the month to give an annual rise of 16.8%.
Food, drink and tobacco were 0.6% costlier than in October and up 3.0% on the year.
ASIA FX: US Dollar Gains Marginally as Euro Continues to Slip
SINGAPORE, Dec. 12 (MNI) - The U.S. dollar traded slightly firmer in the Asian session Monday, as the euro continued to weaken on lingering concerns about debt problems in the eurozone and as investors braced for possibly fresh ratings actions on European sovereign debt.
Dealers said with last week's EU Heads of State Summit now over, market players were shifting their focus to events unfolding this week that might drive risk sentiment.
In particular was last week's news that ratings agency Standard & Poor's had placed the sovereign ratings on 15 eurozone countries on CreditWatch with negative implications.
S&P is expected to complete its review of the ratings this week, with some expecting it as early as later today.
Japan Nov Consumer Confidence Posts 1st Drop in 7 Months
-- Japan Nov SA Consumer Confidence Index 38.1 Vs Oct 38.6
-- Japan Govt Cuts View: Consumer Confidence Nearly Flat
TOKYO (MNI) - Japan's consumer confidence fell for the first time in seven months in November as the global economic slowdown and the strong yen clouded prospects for job creation and income growth, data released by the Cabinet Office showed on Monday.
The closely watched index stood at 38.1 in November, down from 38.6 in October, when it was unchanged. Confidence had been gradually recovering since April, when it slumped to 33.1, the lowest since April 2009, in the aftermath of the March 11 earthquake disaster.
China Econs Warn On Recession As Euro Crisis Drags On: Press
BEIJING (MNI) - Chinese government economists have joined the ranks of sceptics arguing that the latest efforts by European leaders to resolve the single currency union's debt crisis are inadequate, and that China needs to prepare for another recession in the advanced economies.
State Information Center economist Zhang Monan said the agreements finalized at last week's contentious European summit won't fundamentally resolve the crisis and warned that a wave of sovereign downgrades is inevitable in the coming year.
She said the imposition of overly-aggressive austerity packages on European economies will trigger greater social and political turmoil in the region.

TOKYO (MNI) - Japan's corporate goods price index rose 1.7% from a year earlier in November, marking the 14th consecutive y/y rise with the pace of increase little changed from a downwardly revised +1.6% in October amid slowing global demand, data released by the Bank of Japan Monday showed.
Petroleum product and processed food prices marked slightly larger year-on-year gains in November than in October while year-on-year drops in transport equipment and general machinery prices widened last month.

A busy place with a good atmosphere. We started with a wonderful selection of cold meats and then had a special of the day which was steak tartare with white asparagus which was refreshing and delicious. As it is so popular it is best to book.

A small and amazing place, starting with the chef's desk right in the middle of the sitting area: he's greeting people himself, always checking if everything around is as it should be. Staff is just perfect, welcoming when you enter, helpful when you choose the dishes, perfect with serving the food, stealthy when you do need it, cheerful and ready to chat, when you're just chilling. The wine choice is as simple as it could be: you do not have to choose, you can totally trust the caviste. For the food: do not miss the finest and almost encyclopedic selection of hams, chosen and cut with skill and knowledge. The main course is done with attention to all the small details, like the pasta's perfect 'al dente' state. Sadly, we could not eat the desserts, but as we could tell observing other guests, they should be as good as everything was. Bravo, just a superb place. Highly recommended. just concider booking in advance, looks like everyone knows this is place is pure gold.

The Carlyle Group Releases Proprietary U.S. Economic Indicators Derived From Data Of Portfolio Of 200 Companies To Fill Gap Left By Government Shutdown
The Carlyle Group (NASDAQ: CG) today released certain proprietary U.S. economic indicators derived from data gathered from its global portfolio of more than 200 companies that Carlyle believes serve as a reliable proxy for U.S. official data that are not currently reported due to the government shutdown. Carlyle data are consistent with:Carlyle Chief Economist Jason Thomas, PhD., said, "Our economic indicators identify trends and inflection points to help us make better investment decisions. However, several of our monthly data series are highly correlated with, and therefore may serve as reliable proxies for, U.S. official data that are not currently reported due to the government shutdown." Over the past several years, Carlyle has developed its own proprietary economic indicators from its global portfolio of more than 200 companies. The firm gathers company data – orders, shipments, occupancy rates, etc. – most synchronized with macroeconomic series like GDP, retail sales and industrial production. Carlyle then formally calibrates these data to official series to estimate, for example, what a 1% increase in telecom equipment orders means for overall business spending. Details on Each Category of Data: September Retail Sales If the Federal Government were open, on Friday, October 11, the Census Bureau would have reported September retail sales. Our data suggest that September retail sales increased at a 0.25% monthly rate in September. This estimate is based on appliance production data derived from a U.S.-based Carlyle portfolio company. Durable goods spending explains much of the observed variation in total retail sales because the timing of these big ticket purchases is extremely sensitive to consumer confidence. Over the past 33 months, the correlation between the monthly variation in our portfolio company's data and official government retail sales data has been 77.5%. This 0.25% gain follows a 0.2% increase in August and a 0.4% gain in July. Overall, we estimate retail sales are expanding at a 2.6% annual growth rate in real terms.

Best price I found and quality as well. Timken wheel hubs are the best I've used and parts geek has the best prices available.
Part ordered was perfect. Received right on time. Great product made in USA.
Highly recommend this seller. Has a good product,at a good price,and got free shipping on this item.
This website was very user friendly! The parts were top quality for the fraction of the cost of my local parts store! Deffinently will recommend this web site to other family and friends! Everything was packaged very Nicely and was shipped quickly also arrived on time! I will use this web page again!
OEM part was tough to removed due to it being seized in because of the last 186k miles. New part slid in with a little elbow grease and and so put anti seize on to help slide on together
I was looking for a high quality replacement for the hubs on my truck and I found it with Timken. Installation was quick, quality was excellant, and they were a perfect fit. I will not hesitate to order Timken again from Parts Geek!

Winnebago and nearby counties are in a great situation when it comes to home prices. 23 News mortgage expert Terry Bloom says, that's because of the affordability index. Its an estimate of housing affordability, based on the average income of a family and the average prices for a home. In our area we're rated at 169, which is great because the higher the number the more affordable the housing is, and bloom says that means more homes for less money.
And the over-supply of homes for sale in our area right now is also driving down prices

The trailer for Dreamworks/Paramount's Monsters vs. Aliens doesn't officially release until Thursday, but it has popped up a few days early on numerous sites around the web. Many have already been taken down, but if you head over to movie-list quickly, you might still catch it before it's gone.
The campy sci-fi animated flick looks pretty amusing, opening with a man going through a series of invasive scans before being admitted into a high security government war room. The scan locations include both elbows and even his bum.
MVA pays homage to the sci-fi movies of the '50s and '60s, from aliens and mad scientists to The Blob and Loch Ness monster . The voice cast includes Reese Witherspoon, Seth Rogen, Will Arnett and Paul Rudd. It will release in late March 2009 in both 3-D IMAX and standard theaters.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Semiconductor giant Broadcom (BRCM) will report third-quarter earnings results Tuesday, affording management a chance to put some of the rising fears about the company's mobile/wireless business to rest.In comparison to market leader Qualcomm (QCOM), Broadcom has not had a stellar year. However, contrary to popular opinion, Broadcom's performance has been far from disastrous. The problem: given the "upper-tier level" chip position Broadcom has enjoyed when compared to, say, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), expectations for the company have been too high.

This review is from: Ogio Corporate City Corp Briefcase
Pros: Lots of pockets, lots of storage, good build quality, nice appearance, easy to use
Cons: It's a bit big, I didn't expect it to be quite this large when I ordered. No worries, I'll just have to find a friend for my 10" netbook to slide into the computer slot alongside mine. 2 netbooks side by side might fill up the computer pocket.

Top 5 Music Apps

Burning CDs may be a thing of the past, but digital music has come a long way. iPods forever changed portable music consumption in 2001 (Remember Walkmans?). The introduction of iPhones in 2007 meant that you no longer had to carry a separate music-playing device. But using an Apple (AAPL - Get Report) device doesn't mean you have to buy music through iTunes. Unless you want to play "Call Me Maybe" on repeat, those dollars can add up fast.Save money and discover new music with apps.

Friday, September 30, 2011
ATLANTA (AP) -- State health officials say they're investigating the cause of an illness that sickened more than 100 guests and staff members at the Georgia Aquarium.
Georgia Division of Epidemiology officials tell WSB-TV (http://bit.ly/qE1wZk) that Cyclospora made the people sick. The Centers for Disease Control says it's a parasite which causes an intestinal infection.
Guests at three catered events at the aquarium in late July had week-long bouts of diarrhea a few days later.
Health officials haven't determined the source of the breakout, but said they're investigating salad mix, fresh basil and cherry tomatoes since those items were served at all three events.
Wolfgang Puck Catering CEO Carl Schuster said his firm, which prepares food at aquarium events, is awaiting reports from health officials. He said the company adheres to the highest safety standards.

Five Books I'd Read
in which the author discusses five books he'd read, if time permitted.
1. A Horrible Experience of Unbearable Length: More Movies That Suck, by Roger Ebert.
It must really hurt to have a movie shredded by Roger Ebert. I mean, as an artist, you can always stake out an "I don't care what critics think" position. Certainly, that position is valid. But, unless you adopt a vehement anti-critical dogmatic stance, you're basically humiliated—very publicly—if Ebert decides your product is wack. Because, if you care one iota about what critics think, you've certainly got to consider Ebert's point of view since, though he no longer has a jaw and can't speak, he still expresses the definitive opinion on whether the masses should spend $10 on a flick. Because, if Ebert disses you, who are you going to turn to? Roeper? No one gives a f*ck about Roeper!
2. The Emerald Diamond: How the Irish Transformed America's Greatest Pastime, by Charley Rosen.
Irish dudes shaped baseball, and not because they wielded bats during the potato famine to secure dwindling supplies of the precious root vegetable. Nah, just kidding—I know that baseball is part of the Irish character because some of my best friends are Irish, as is my attorney, banker, and rabbi.
3. I Must Resist: Bayard Rustin's Life in Letters, by Bayard Rustin.
Just because Black History Month is over doesn't mean you can't read a civil rights great's life in letters, including missives to Martin Luther King, Jr. and D.C.'s own Eleanor Holmes Norton. Not sure if he wrote Ben Ali, the founder of Ben's Chili Bowl.
4. Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness, by Ralph Temple.
Just because you voted for Rick Santorum in the Oklahoma Republican primary doesn't mean you can't read the memoir of a late, great ACLU leader. You just might have to sit shiva for Andrew Breitbart first.
5. Care To Make Love In That Gross Little Space Between Cars?: A Believer Book of Advice, by The Believer.
Operation Enduring Cleverness: launch.

Summary:Adam and Eve are two fragile and sensitive vampires who have been lovers for centuries. Both are cultured intellectuals who have evolved to a level where they no longer kill for sustenance, but still retain their innate wildness. Reclusive musician Adam lives in the ruins of contemporary Detroit, despairing about human civilization's decline and worrying about future survival. Eve, who is more optimistic, leaves her home in the ancient city of Tangier to be with him. As blood has been tainted by the zombies (humans), the formerly immortal Adam and Eve need uncontaminated blood from hospitals or they will perish. Eve's close friend Elizabethan dramatist Christopher Marlowe, is now an elder va... Full Summary >>

Season 1 is on Netflix Instant Streaming. I always get a lot done when Hoarders is on, might as well have them all, lol.

Hello -
I haven't been on this site for years, but I am having such a hard time with the idea of sending my baby to kindergarten . . . felt the need to post w/ some folks who are in the same boat.
Everything was fine until we attended a kindergarten round-up activity last night. I think I've been crying ever since! My goodness, what a sad sack I am. :) It's just really hitting me that in 4 months, my baby boy will be gone all day. I am so not ready to let go of that little hand. This feels ten times harder than when I sent DD daughter to school. I'm also struggling with thoughts of "is he ready?" Sigh.
Anyway, here's hoping I'm not the only one feeling this way. Thanks for reading.

If you set up find my ipod on the ipod itself and it is on and it is connected to wi-fi then you may be able to do this from icloud.com
Otherwise, no

Same! I lost my ipod too and I lost it where there is NO WIFI! and im really really sad that it has been lost and im really scared that someone might find it and log into my instagram/skype and do bad things to it.
