Comments about Tirra:
I've had this pair of sandals for about 2 years now and they're still going great! When I bought them, I had been looking for a nice sandal that would be supportive and that I could use for some hiking. These do exactly that and are super durable and easy to slip on. It's also great that you can get them wet. I really have no complaints about the shoe and will probably buy another pair when these finally wear out.

Comments about Tirra:
I wear these every day for the spring and summer. I bought two pairs, a black pair and the purple. I love the color. I'm not generally a huge fan of ombré but it works with this shoe. The color makes the show cuter and slightly dressy. I walk and hike with them, sometimes sand and dirt is easily trapped but it's easy to rinse off.

Tasting Notes for Mouton Rothschild, 1983:
Evolving in a positive fashion, 1983 is turning out to be a fine vintage for Mouton. Although not a big wine, this medium-weight Mouton displays an attractive nose of blackcurrants, black-cherries, olives, and minerals. Medium-bodied, with sweet but noticeable tannin in the finish, as well as beautiful elegance and complexity, this wine is close to reaching its plateau of maturity. I have always thought it resembled this property's 1966. It should last for another 20 years. Last tasted, 7/93. Wine Advocate # 88 Aug 1993
Parker Points: 91
Drinking Period: 1993-2013
Tasting Notes for Latour, 1983:
Tasted from my cellar, this wine is fully mature, not terribly concentrated, and slightly herbaceous, exhibiting aromas of sweaty saddle leather, melted asphalt, tobacco, and red as well as black fruits. Notions of caramel and roasted nuts also emerge. A medium-bodied effort with soft tannin, but little persistence and length, it requires consumption over the next decade.Wine Advocate # 129 Jun 2000
Parker Points: 88
Drinking Period: 2000-2010
Tasting Notes for Margaux, 1983:
The 1983 Margaux is a breathtaking wine. The Cabernet Sauvignon grapes achieved perfect maturity in 1983, and the result is an astonishingly rich, concentrated, atypically powerful and tannic Margaux. The color is dark ruby, the aromas exude ripe cassis fruit, violets, and vanillin oakiness, and the flavors are extremely deep and long on the palate with a clean, incredibly long finish. This full-bodied, powerful wine remains stubbornly backward and at least 5-6 years away from maturity. Last tasted 9/97. Bordeaux Book, 3rd Edition # B1 Jan 1998
Parker Points: 96
Drinking Period: 2002-2030

The Linux 2.6 kernel has been ported to Apple's iPhone platform, with support for the first and second generation iPhones as well as the first generation iPod touch. This is a rough first draft of the port, and many drivers are still missing, but it's enough that a real alternative operating system is running on the iPhone.
From the iPhone DevTeam:
What we have:
• Framebuffer driver
• Serial driver
• Serial over USB driver
• Interrupts, MMU, clock, etc.
What we have in openiboot (but hasn't been ported yet):
• Read-only support for the NAND
What we don't have (yet!):
• Write support for the NAND
• Wireless networking
• Touchscreen
• Sound
• Accelerometer
• Baseband support
The current userland we're using, in the interest of expedience, is a Busybox installation created with buildroot, but glibc works fine as well, and we're going to build a more permanent userland solution.
Instructions here: http://www.iphone-dev.org/planetbeing/LINUX-README.txt
Download here: http://22.214.171.124/iphone/files/iphonelinux-demo.tar.gz (look for mirrors in the comments)
EDIT: The instructions are missing the step that you have to select openiboot console from the menu before performing the "sudo ./oibc" step. Just be aware you have to do that if it seems like you're not getting a response from the oibc client.

Parents concerned about this live action version may want to check video rental shelves for the animated adventures of this super hero, such as Spider-Man: Spider Slayer. Other comic book heroes that have found fame on the big screen include Superman (1978) and X-Men (2000). Inspector Gadget (about a physically modified security guard) and the animated movie Batman & Mr. Freeze: Subzero also showcase superheroes of a sort, but have more content issues. Jumanji is an action-packed film for teens and adults about a board game that requires lots of human interaction.

In terms of trading Pokemon, just like with Gen IV, in Gen V it seems to be almost impossible to get a majority of Hoenn native Pokemon, so a remake of R/S or Emerald would be necessary.
At the same time, I wouldn't be surprised if they were on the DS instead of the 3DS. In fact I hope they are, despite the fact that I have a 3DS.

Thunder notebook: Russell Westbrook joins elite company
*Westbrook, who is seventh in the league in free-throw attempts this season, didn't shoot his first free throw until 43.4 seconds remained in the game, and it came on an intentional foul. He finished with 13 points and 11 assists, good for his 30th double-double of the season.
*Kevin Durant missed six of his first seven shots from the field but finished by making five of his last six. Durant filled the stat sheet with 24 points, nine rebounds, five assists and three steals.
* Thunder players spread the shots amongst themselves. Westbrook had the most shot attempts with 14. That's the lowest single-game total for OKC's shot leader since Durant, Westbrook and Jeff Green each had 13 attempts at Charlotte on Dec. 21. Guard James Harden was 7 for 11 off the bench.
*Former Thunder forward D.J. White helped out his old team Friday night as Charlotte cooled off Portland with a 97-92 victory. White had 16 points (6 for 9), nine rebounds (five offensive), two blocks and two steals in 28 minutes. The Bobcats were plus-17 when White was in the game.
*Detroit had a long starting lineup with 6-foot-11 center Greg Monroe, 6-foot-10 center Chris Wilcox, 6-foot-9 Tayshaun Prince, 6-foot-8 Tracy McGrady and 6-foot-3 Ben Gordon, with McGrady starting at point guard.
The Pistons entered the game ranked last in the league in rebounding at 38.4 per game. The Thunder was outrebounded 12-6 in the first quarter and 38-34 for the game.
*It's been a tumultuous season in Detroit, which in addition to some serious attitude problems also has used 16 different starting lineups. Friday's lineup is now 0-4. The Pistons also have lost 189 games to injuries, led by Jonas Jerebko (ruptured right Achilles) and Terrico White (broken right foot), who have missed all 66 games.
By comparison, the Thunder has used eight different starting lineups and lost 43 games to injury – 12 of those missed games have come from newly acquired center Kendrick Perkins and guard Nate Robinson.
*Kevin Cronin of the rock band REO Speedwagon was in attendance to watch the Thunder play Motown.
* Good teamwork by both teams. The Thunder had 25 assists on 36 field goals. The Pistons had 24 assists on 38 field goals.
CNN did not air its special segment on the Thunder on Friday due to earthquake and tsunami coverage. When the segment does appear, it will likely be shown on CNNI (CNN International).
Friday's crowd of 18,203 inside Oklahoma City Arena was the 26th sellout in 32 home games this season. … The Thunder is 18-6 overall and 10-2 at home against Eastern Conference teams. … OKC is in the midst of a seven-game stretch against nothing but East teams, which will be followed by 12 straight against the West before ending the season at home against Milwaukee. … Both teams shot exactly the same in the first half at 52.6 percent (20 for 38). … The Thunder shot 50.0 for the game and is now 18-3 when shooting 50 percent or better. … The Thunder is off today and will fly to Cleveland at 1 p.m.
"Harden is just one of those assassins that doesn't need much of a chance to knock it down. He made some big shots – long shots, too." – Detroit coach John Kuester

BLACK IS BACK: Lupita Nyong'o Wins Oscar for Best Supporting Actress -- Plus "12 Years A Slave" Wins Best Film
The film industry has received a lot of criticism in the past for not recognizing Black actors and actresses, but this year's Academy Awards was quite different. 31-year old actress Lupita Nyong'o won the Best Supporting Actress award, and the same movie she starred in, 12 Days A Slave, won the Best Film award.
Nyong'o, who is of Kenyan descent, played Patsey, a tortured slave in the Steve McQueen-directed film. Obviously, her performance was amazing, as she has also won a SAG award, a Spirit Award, and a NAACP Image Award.
After winning her Oscar, she said in her speech, "Thank you to the academy for this incredible recognition. It doesn't escape me for one moment that so much joy in my life is due to so much pain in someone else's." She then credited McQueen for bringing attention to a dark chapter in American history, and the victims of slavery.
She added, "When I look down at this golden statue, may it remind me and every child, no matter where you're from, your dreams are valid."
The evening of the 86th annual Academy Awards, was hosted by none other than Ellen Degeneres, and was held in Los Angeles, California at the Dolby Theatre. Other names that came up with big wins included Matthew McConaughey who won the Best Actor Award, and Cate Blanchett who won the Best Actress Award.

"Call That a Challenge" glitched?
I have one time challenge left - Abysus. I have played through it (after finishing the game) TWICE (visiting the fella in the green suit to trigger the challenge).
Both times, I start with no timer at all. I finish the level and it lists my time as 0.00 and gives me the 1000 evo bonus, but no achievement.
Has this happened to anyone else? I will NOT play through this again from scratch. I guess I will mop up the other 2 achievements I need and move on...
Edit: I decided to start the time challenge for a 3rd time. Still no timer. I quit to dash, reloaded the game, started the challenge again, and BAM! there was a timer.
Just a heads up for anyone else that comes across this strange glitch.

Go to bed looking like a movie star. MoNique often arrives home still in her makeup and stylish dos from the set and heads to the bedroom for some private time with her husband. Think about dressing upnot dressing downfor bed, and you could get the same effect.
Be free. MoNique isnt afraid to leave the lights on while making love. And, if her hubby stumbles across a little something extra, she doesnt mind. "If he happens to grab that second roll, baby, let him grab it," she says. "He knows its there."

Even though I love gift giving, and have celebrated many milestones of friends and family over the years with showers, sometimes the whole concept seems strange to me. Inviting people to buy us baby items? I guess bc we were married less than a year before we got pregnant so I just went through all this with the wedding. I'm always appreciative of any kind gesture about our pregnancy and i'm always happy to do it for other people, but sometimes it feels selfish to me. Is that weird?
Sometimes I feel weird about having a baby shower
Posted 12/04/2012
I don't like being center of attention either. And I am so shy I am dreading opening all the gifts in front of everyone. I will probably be beet red the whole time!
On the flipside, all my friends and cousins are on their second, third+ kid. I been to all their showers and kids birthdays parties throughout the years. This is my first baby-FINALLY and a piece of me feels like I deserve some gifts back, lol

I feel the same way. Also, the whole idea of making a list of preferred items I'd like you to purchase for me seems just rude. I just don't get the shower thing. Glad I'm not the only one.

I sorta feel the same way. I have to think of it as, I have definitely paid it forward. I'm 32 and I have attended my fair share of wedding and baby showers. I personally never thought to myself that it was rude when shopping off of a registry. I actually thought it was pretty convenient, knowing exactly what to buy that they wanted or needed. I try to keep that in mind when feeling guilty. Its my turn now, I have waited a long time for this :)

My shower was on Saturday and after being nagged about a registry I did one and a few people purchased things from it while others did not. I was perfectly fine with WHATEVER my lo received. He got A LOT of things. Multiples of certsin items but hey it will all get used. Btw, I was hurt because certain IMPORTANT family members were not there because they didnt have a gift but that didnt matter to me one bit. I would have rathered them come empty handed than not at all!!!!! Im still pretty sour about it and both mnl's(step and real are on my sh*t list. They will NOT know when I go into labor???):o(

There have been countless efforts to try and decrease rape cases in India where terrifying studies show that a woman is raped every 30 minutes. Although all these efforts (such as as anti-rape clothing) try hard to change things, rape continues to be a very serious and prominent issue in India.
Although much focus has been on rape prevention, what about those who have already fallen victim to this unforgivable act? Apparently, they face a whole new layer of difficulties when they try to seek justice.
According to Think Progress, a 16-year-old girl in Calcutta reported a gang-rape to the police. As punishment, the men raped her again and burned her alive. It's very likely that many women do not report rape out of fear. After all, these death threats are apparently quite common.
"Women were being denied a fundamental right because of this fear of going to the police. Why should they need someone's help to do something so basic?" said Joydeep Nayak, a senior member of the police force in India.
Nayak decided to create an alternative to going to the police station. Her solution? She created an electronic kiosk that allows women to discreetly report abuse without fear of backlash. The "Instant Complaint Logging Internet Kiosk," or "iClik," resembles an ATM Machine and has been installed in a bank in Bhubaneswar.
Nayak has even addressed the illiteracy issue in India. For those who are unable to write out a report, the kiosk also records audio reports and scans written complaints.
"My dream is to have a kiosk alongside existing ATMs, in schools, railway stations and bus stations, all over the country — so that women can walk in, complain and leave without any escort or hassles," Nayak said.
So far, about eight to ten women use the machine every day.

I recently had my bathtub converted to a walk-in shower by a general contractor.
I had a problem with random surging of water from the new showerhead from the outset. Water would spurt out of the showerhead at random as if someone quickly turned the water on off. The manufacturer replaced the cartridge three times and most recently sent a replacement for the piston.
The problem improved somewhat after the piston was replaced, in that, the volume of random surging water was less and it occurred less frequently. The contractor seems to feel that the faucet needs to be replaced but that would entail going back into the wall of my newly renovated bathroom which I am not about to do until I am certain that it will correct the problem.
I had a licensed plumber assess the situation and he also suggested changing the fixture. He also mentioned that the problem might be due to the bathroom being last on the system and the new types of valves are sensitive to fluctuating pressure causing the water surges. He mentioned that he could install something to correct the problem (I cannot recall what he called it – but remember he said that it functions like a loop). I should mention that we have well water and never had a problem with the existing shower and tub of 23 years.
The plumber took the faucet apart and inspected our tank and water pressure gauge. He changed the pressure gauge, as it was not working and tried to put a couple of pounds of pressure in the tank because it was on the low side around 40 pds.
Interestingly, after he left, the shower was fine – no surging of water. We did not use the shower for the remainder of the day. However, the next morning, the surging of water stopped and the shower started leaking heavy drops of water without stopping. What could the plumber have done to cause the character of the problem to change entirely? This leads me to believe that it is not the faucet fixture but something else. The new leak is perpetual like a ticking clock – unlike the random surges we were experiencing previously. Keep in mind that the shower had not been used since the day before when the plumber looked at it and checked the tank. In the morning I did run the dishwasher and the other bathroom, which backs up to the problem one was used.
Previously, I noticed some correlation between using water elsewhere in the house and the surging of water from the showerhead.
I explained the latest development to the plumber about the new leak and he was at a loss to explain why.
I need help! Can anyone figure out what is going on?

Saving your holiday shopping until the last minute can have benefits, particularly if Beyoncé is in the store. The singer visited a Wal-Mart in Tewksbury, Mass., on Friday and made 750 shoppers very happy while wishing them a "Merry, merry Christmas."

As reported in the Lowell Sun, Bey was out promoting her new self-titled album, which she released on Dec. 13 on iTunes without any prior fanfare. The release became the fastest-selling of all time on the digital music site, but led to Target and Amazon deciding not to stock the album.
Wal-Mart, however, does carry the album — which Beyoncé noted during her visit had just arrived — and she wanted to make sure she gave the chain a big thumbs-up right in time for the holidays. During her shopping trip, the singer walked around the store pushing a shopping cart and chose a few items for purchase.
Then, at the checkout stand she took to the "microphone" (actually a store intercom) and announced, "Everyone in the store right now, the first $50 of your holiday gifts are on me. Merry, merry Christmas from Beyonce."
A few of the shoppers at the store while the superstar was there shared thoughts and photos of the visit on Twitter.
Having dropped a cool $37,500 to make several hundred customers very happy and grateful, the superstar then headed off to her show at Boston's TD Garden that night. Happy holidays, indeed.

A Chattanooga, Tennessee city employee who for five years claimed to have breast cancer while accepting donations of leave time and money from co-workers says her story was a charade.
Thirty-seven-year-old Keele Maynor says she doesn't know why she did it.
Maynor's comments come in a Dec. 12 e-mail to her supervisor obtained Thursday by The Associated Press.
In the e-mail, Maynor says she is relieved she doesn't have to "keep up the charade anymore." She resigned last week as an administrative assistant in Chattanooga's land development department.
The Chattanooga mayor's office said officials are considering legal action against Maynor. A spokesman for the mayor says Maynor took 194 days of leave donated by co-workers and accepted money from them. Maynor also received support for years from nonprofit cancer groups.

Davos And Polar Vortex 2 Unleashed As Hilsenrath Says "More Taper" - The Complete Overnight Preview
One of the bigger stories overnight is Hilsenrath's latest communication from the Fed which once again simply paraphrases the status quo opinion, namely which is that the Fed will taper by another $10 billion on January 29, reducing the total monthly flow to $65 billion. "The Federal Reserve is on track to trim its bond-buying program for the second time in six weeks as a lackluster December jobs report failed to diminish the central bank's expectations for solid U.S. economic growth this year, according to interviews with officials and their public comments." Of course, should the Fed not do that, as the Hilsenrath turned to Hilsen-wrath after all those Taper rumors in September ended up being one giant dud, one can once and for all completely ignore the WSJ reporter, who will have lost all his Fed sources and is now merely an echo chamber of consensus. What is notable is that the result of the latest mouthpiece effort, the USD is stronger, which means USDJPY is higher, which means US equity futures are flying.... on less QE to be announced. We eagerly await for this particular correlation pair to finally flip.
The other big story, of course, is the already noted well-telegraphed in advance PBOC liquidity injection ahead of the Chinese Lunar New Year, and ahead of a potential January 31 Trust default which will certainly shake the foundations of the Chinese shadow banking system to the core. Not helping nerves was last night's announcement by Zhang Ming, a researcher and director of the international investment department at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, that "trusts and shadow banking will see defaults this year, and this is a good thing." Let's circle back in 6 months to see just how good it is.
Still, the PBOC's liquidity was a welcome addition to a market suddenly on the ropes about where new money will come from, sending the USDJPY soaring, the Nikkei higher by 1%, the Shanghai Composite higher by 0.86% back over 2000 and the S&P futures about 8 points higher. This happened despite Europe once again issuing warning signs of a slowdown when the January German ZEW Survey missed expectations of an increase to 64.0, and instead declined from 62.0 to 61.7.
The end results is that heading into the North American open stocks in Europe are seen broadly higher, albeit marginally, with USTs under pressure and USD index supported by the latest WSJ's Hilsenrath article. He also added that the Fed could cut purchases to USD 65bln/month, adding that the Fed is comfortable with rate expectations in the market. Furthermore for USTs it is worth noting that there is unconfirmed market talk that they have been put under pressure by a large block sale by a large Japanese bank. Financials were among the best performing sectors, supported by actions by the PBOC overnight, after the central bank injected CNY 180bln via 21-day reverse repos and CNY 75bln via 7-day reverse repos, which was the first injection into the interbank market since December 23rd. At the same time, market participants used yesterday's Deutsche Bank's profit warning inspired sell off to reinstate longs. Brent Crude futures also trade higher this morning following the aforementioned liquidity injection by the PBOC.
Oh yeah, that epic boondoggle Davos, where fawning, wannabe access journalists meet wannabe world saver superheroes, officially begins today.
In the absence of any material macro news in the US, which may be shivering in freezing cold as the second Polar Vortex, aka cold winter weather and, gasp, snow, grips the nation, Verizon Communications, IBM and Johnson & Johnson may dictate the tone in the absence of other major data releases. Today's POMO is $1.00 - $1.50 billion in the 02/15/2036 - 11/15/2043 bucket.

Worse than expected German ZEW survey, firmer USD, which rose to its highest level since November, with the 200DMA line seen at 81.47, ensured that both EUR and GBP pairs trended lower.

Deutsche concludes the overnight recap
Though European markets felt fairly directionless yesterday, there has been plenty of debate on China's growth numbers after the release of Q4 GDP data yesterday. The prevailing sentiment is a bit firmer this morning thanks to the Peoples' Bank of China's actions today and yesterday to shore up liquidity into the domestic banking system. According to Reuters, the PBoC has conducted a total of CNY180bn in 21- day reverse repos and another CNY75bn in 7-day reverse repos to provide short term funds to banks today. This comes after the PBoC announced that it had provided liquidity to larger banks through its Standing Lending Facility yesterday, but the total amount provided was not disclosed. In addition to that, the PBoC is expanding the facility to small-medium sized banks in 10 regions for a trial period of 14 days (concluding after Lunar New Year). As part of the trial, smaller banks can seek funding before the month-end Lunar New Year holiday via the SLF when the overnight, 7-day and 14-day repo rate exceed 5%, 7% and 8% respectively.
Approximately US$20bn has been set aside for the trial.
The PBoC's actions have provided a boost to Asian equities this morning. S&P500 futures are up 0.4% and Asian bourses are up between 0.5 and 1 percent. China's 14-day repo rate has declined by more than 300bp and this has helped Chinese Ashares stem recent losses (Shanghai Comp +0.7%). Nonetheless, the Shanghai Composite (-5.2% YTD) remains one of the worst performing equity indices in the Asia region (and indeed the world), exceeding even the poor YTD performance of Brazil's Bovespa (-4.7%) in USD terms. Outside of equities there has been a flow of investors looking to buy credit protection via the Australian sovereign 5yr CDS and China sovereign 5yr CDS, which have widened by as much as 4-5bp apiece in the last 24 hours, but the PBoC's injection has provided some relief today. In Japan, a 0.5% move higher in USDJPY is underpinning the bid for Japanese equities (Nikkei +1.4%) though flows remain on the subdued side.
Outside of China, there was little news flow to drive markets either way with US markets closed for the Martin Luther King Jr holiday. The Stoxx600 (-0.1%) consolidated at YTD highs, but likely would have finished in positive territory were it not for the stark underperformance of European banks (-0.95%). One of the outperforming banks (on a relative basis) was Standard Chartered (-0.15%) who continue to be the subject of takeover reports by various financial commentators - including the Financial Times who wrote that the bank looks attractive on a relative value basis after falling 30% since Q1 last year. In fixed income, the new year rip tighter in peripheral bond yields continued yesterday and 10yr Spanish yields (-2bp) reached seven year lows. The Irish 10yr firmed by 20bp, after Moody's upgraded the sovereign to investment grade late last Friday. Ireland's NTMA said that it will be widening its marketing scope to potentially market bonds in Asia and Middle East. Gilts were largely unchanged as markets wait in anticipation for tomorrow's UK employment report and BoE minutes.
In an otherwise quiet week for data, we should point out that delegates attending the World Economic Forum will begin arriving at Davos today for the annual meeting. This year's theme is "The Reshaping of the World: Consequences for Society, Politics and Business". There are a number dignitaries will be attending the conference including the UK, Japanese, Brazilian and Italian prime ministers/presidents, central bank heads such as Carney, Kuroda and Draghi; together with the likes of Jacob Lew (US treasury secretary), Ban-Ki Moon (UN), Christine Lagarde (IMF) and Jim Yong Kim (World Bank). Expect plenty of soundbites from these leaders over the next couple of days.
Elsewhere in the day ahead, the latest German ZEW survey is the highlight on the data docket. Earnings from Unilever, Verizon Communications, IBM and Johnson & Johnson may dictate the tone in the absence of other major data releases. In EM, the focus will be on the central bank policy decisions in Turkey and Hungary.

lets the financial vortex begin ;
I wouldnt be surprised if they tapered - becasue the tapering is pusing on a string now - retail is collapsing - job market is collapsing and not even creating part time jobs now.
The flies are in the shit now.
Prolly they will Taper Taper
And market should make up for lost up day. So todays upside should be double of average
You mean "QE is pushing on a string" .
The message here again is the big banks are covering their ass(ets) now that The Chosen One has become a political pariah.
And they're warning us so they can say "we told you so!" when the market implodes.
I think there may also well be a conspiracy of sorts going on here by the more conservative powers that be (read "super rich") who
want to keep what they've pillaged and plundered from us now by making things so much worse for the sheeple and blame it all
on the stupid liberal politics to crush any chance of those tax raising libtards getting into office again!
Again, It's all about the super wealthy KEEPING their wealth now and the hell with saving the rest of us !
Sooner or later it will all come crashing down. The earthquake took place in 2008, the building was hit at its foundations and the cracks keep on widening all the time. Our sovereign debts are out of control now, so how can this possibly end well?
Ha... And gold is down about $11. What sort of retard would be selling gold in this environment?
JPM with an avalanche of paper: If the stackers be bold, then smack down that gold.
Can they move the meeting from Davos to the Volgograd train station?
There is going to be some pretty big heating bill hitting the USA this year...that should put a damper on IPhone sales....and a lot of pipes are going to freeze and will be needing repair...additional costs to a homeowner...unplanned of course..so where will they get the $5000 deductible for their Obamacare?????
The laughable part is to watch how many suppliers go belly up from signing long-term contacts at too low prices. Buying $200/MWh and selling it for $65/MWh, doesn't exactly smell like profit.
What happened to the market crashing at the first sign of taper? That was the topic of many articles on ZH over the past 18 months. And as the USD goes up, markets go down?
Nothing has been as predicted.
QE for everyone! Seriously, the Fed is going to wind down "stimulus" much more quickly than expected...just in time for the rest of the world (read "inflation") to ramp their QD up. Goldman Sachs is heading right back into "securitized debt hell" as interest rates remain at or near zero for a VERY long time. The USA is going to be flooded with finished product from the world as "excess production" becomes the global policy de jure. The rapid build out of a fuel cell economy appears imminent to me now. These thing have almost zero downtime and will be fully automated. Self driving cars are simply a "flip the switch" away. I have no clue where jobs and incomes will be "originating" from here.
Remember when "the story" used to be about whether interest rates would be raised or not ? Now it is all about how much of the "money " the fed will buy and what those effects will be on interest rates.
The Fed still has the power to raise rates the old way. They have lost the power to lower them without having to buy the debt themselves.
It is a one way road from here on out.

'Sport-Obsessed' Wales Compares Badly with Other Countries When It Comes to Taking Part; NATION HAS ONE OF LOWEST LEVELS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN EUROPE
Byline: DAVID WILLIAMSON
THE reputation of Wales as a nation of sport lovers has been challenged by international figures which show far fewer people are willing to take part than in similar countries.
In a survey of European countries, only Latvia had lower levels of regular participation in sport.
The research found only around one in three adults played sport at least once a week. This was behind Scotland and England and stood in stark contrast with other European countries.
More than 50% of people in Slovenia and Ireland enjoyed weekly sport. The sportiest country was Finland, where more than seven out of 10 adults took part.
The figures, released as part of World Statistics Day, demonstrate that there is no automatic link between national pride at staging landmark events such as the Ryder Cup and major rugby, cricket and football events and direct involvement in sport.
A Sport Wales spokesman acknowledged the scale of the challenge which lay ahead. The Assembly Government agency, which is responsible for promoting participation in exercise, has responded by targeting young people in the hope that they will develop lifelong sporting activity.
He said: "We recognise that adult participation rates in Wales have remained static over the last decade. In order to address this trend, Sport Wales has focused on developing positive sporting experiences among our young people to encourage lifelong participation in sport.
"We believe that addressing lifestyle choices earlier in life can build habits that last a lifetime."
Concerned... leader Nick He added: "There has also been investment in adult schemes, such as free swimming for people aged 60 and over, and over time these should also have a positive impact on adult participation levels. We want to see a healthy, sporting Wales where children, young people and adults are all participating in local community sport." The unimpressive levels of physical activity may be linked to why Wales does not excel in overall life expectancy.
Women in Wales live for an average of 81.4 years, - more than four years longer than men.
Wales ranks in the bottom third of the rankings for female life expectancy, behind Japan (86.1 years) but ahead of Turkey (75.8 years).
Political leaders reacted with alarm to the findings.
Conservative Assembly leader Nick Bourne said: "It is concerning that Wales has one of the lowest rates of physical activity. This poses considerable challenges for tackling public health problems such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease and other long-term chronic health conditions."
Eleanor Burnham, the Welsh Liberal Democrat spokeswoman for sport, said: "Despite the Ryder Cup, the success of Team Wales in the Commonwealth games and the evidence that Wales is as sport-obsessed as ever, sadly this is not feeding through to increased participation levels in sport. In the league table of sport participation we are languishing behind Ireland, England and Scotland...
"Regular exercise is so important for physical and mental well-being and for reducing obesity levels. It is clear that the Welsh Assembly Government needs to keep working harder with councils and other bodies to encourage the Welsh to translate a love of sport into a love of exercise."
A spokesman for the Assembly Government laid out how it aimed to change lifestyles across Wales through initiatives such as free swimming. He said: "We also fund Sport Wales to deliver the 5x60 programme to increase the number of secondary school age pupils taking part in sport or physical activity for 60 minutes, at least five times a week.
"Our Creating an Active Wales five-year action plan, launched in January this year, aims to increase participation in sport and make physical activity a natural part of everyone's life. …

Designed for students and artists who need a firm, sturdy surface for sketching and a means to carry their sketching paper with them. Two heavy clips on the large board (only one on the small) hold a sketch pad firmly in place, and, once a sketch is completed, the oversized rubber band holds the bottom in place while it is being transported.
The board is made of 1/8" (3 mm) thick masonite and is very lightweight, with rounded corners for safety. A hand hole makes carrying easier.
Replacement Large Rubber Band
Keep your artwork flat and secure with Tote Board Rubber Bands. Each rubber band measures 10-3/4" long and 7/8" wide, ideal for securing your artwork at both ends of a drawing board.

Exactly what I needed
By IMB
from Fort Lauderdale, FL
I needed a sketchpad that did not require half my work space, and this particular item was perfect. It fits well, it is light, but the clamp is as strong as a full size pad.
This board is perfect for what I need.

Inexpensive, lightweight, easy to carry with the handle, and perfect size for my needs.
Light-weight, easy to carry with the handle, perfect size.
Great deal for the price
By Jess
from Pa
I've desperately needed a drawing board for awhile. I can't draw on table tops because my neck and back get stiff. Easels just make my arm tired after awhile. So, usually, I settled for the back of a notebook, until caving and ordering a board. I am never going back to anything else. I give it a 4 star only because the clamp is VERY sharp and strong, and will leave indentations in the paper if I use it without using the rubber band between the paper and the clip. I'm also left handed, and the little hand hole sits beneath where I draw.
Great product great service!!

This is perfect for coloring books or sketching and painting.
Perfect sketch board
By MMWC
from Nevada
I love the size of this sketch board. My husband bought me the larger one as a Christmas gift and it's great for table work but this one is much more portable. I can use it inside or out, whenever I'm looking to draw.
By ROBO
from Roanoke, VA
This is the best clip board ever made in my opinion. It has 2 clamps that want come undone. Better than that it will hold your paper and not put any creases in your paper or canvas. That is the best. The rubber bands is great for the other end. You only need one.
Sturdy and easy to use
By Seacreature
from Los Angeles CA
I ordered several different boards of different sizes and types. This one has turned out to be my favorite. The elastic band is a plus and I ordered a spare in case it breaks. The band is very sturdy and this has not been a problem so far.
Great product

ESPNHS honors 18 female teen athletes who are doing remarkable things on the field, in the classroom and in their communities. Click here to read about each of them.
When it's time to hit the track for a practice or a meet, Fawzia Kheir pulls on a full head scarf, a long-sleeve compression shirt and long tights under her shorts -- even during the summer. It's her way of balancing her Muslim faith with her passion for running.
"It does get hot, and it can drag me down in the summer," said Kheir, a 17-year-old senior who competes for Dickinson (Jersey City, N.J.). "But I love running so much, I will sacrifice the pain. It's shocking to some people. But I can still run fast."
Once she reached puberty, Kheir -- in accordance with Muslim custom -- began covering her entire body except for her face while in public. She said the attire allows observant Muslim females to be judged by their morals, character and ideals instead of their appearance. "It wasn't mandatory for me, but it was the right thing to do," said Kheir. "The first time I ran with the head scarf, I took it off because it was uncomfortable. Then I put it back on.
"It's just a way of life. It's a way of showing respect," she said. "People can like me for who I am and not for my body."
Kheir's coach, Antwuanette Wilkins-Brown said Kheir fits in perfectly on her team.
"She's very easy to coach because she trains hard and never misses practice," Wilkins-Brown said. "I wish I had five [runners] just like her."
Jennyqua Young, one of Kheir's teammates and closest friends, describes her as funny, outgoing and kind-hearted. "Most of our team is diverse," Young said. "The more diversity, the better we can understand each other's backgrounds."
Another part of Kheir's life that she often has to explain to non-Muslims is Ramadan, which is the ninth month on the Islamic calendar. For the entire month, Muslims are required to refrain from eating or drinking during daylight hours. During Ramadan, Kheir typically drinks about five bottles of water before the sun rises and then trains at about 10 a.m. "It seems to get harder every year," she said. "I really have to push through it."
Wilkins-Brown believes Kheir, who was named first-team all-county after top-seven finishes at sectionals in the 800 meters, the 400 meters and the mile, has a good chance of running in college because she's such a versatile athlete. She has competed in everything from 55 meters to 5Ks, even enduring painful stress fractures on her feet during her freshman and sophomore seasons.
"Nothing stops her," Wilkins-Brown said. "I've joked with her and asked what happens if her head scarf falls off.
"She said, 'Well, coach, I would keep on running.' "

Sudhir Kakar and the Socio-Psychological Explanation of Hindu-Muslim Communal Riots in India
Saha, Santosh, The Australian Journal of Politics and History
The "Problem"
Sudhir Kakar, who was named as "one of the 25 major thinkers of the world" by a French magazine in 2007, has written profusely about myths, rituals, shamans, doctors, the seekers, and anxiety. Kakar has a degree in engineering and economics and has taught, among others, at Harvard, Chicago, Princeton, Paris, and Melbourne. He was presented with the Goethe Medal in 1998 by the German government. His novels include Mira and the Mahatma (2004). In his recent study, The Indians: Portrait of the People (2007), he makes a general statement that Indians must give up Gandhi's dream of "lasting heart unity" between the Hindus and Muslims. His significant work, The Colors of Violence (1996), looks at the 1990 Hyderabad riots, previously analysed only by sociologists, political scientists and historians. Examining religious riots from the point of view of psychoanalysis is a strength of Kakar's work. It also turns out to be its major weakness since his analysis is conducted in isolation from other disciplines.
In another great work, The Inner World (1978), Kakar links the notion of a pathology of men in a patriarchal culture to the homo hierachicus element in Indian identity. (1) Central to this link is the weak differentiation of the super-ego and the priority of the "communal consciousness". Indeed most of his early works trace a depressing "pathology" in Indian child development, observe that traditional Hindu socialization is constructed around an adverse group dimension, and provide a general picture of sustained and "pervasive pathology". (2) Among his suggested parallels between shamanism and psychoanalysis is Levi-Strauss' idea that shamanistic healing depends not so much on recovering one's own myth, but upon receiving a collective myth from one's cultural tradition. Acknowledging that superior Western psychology has a better chance to analyze Indian development of personality, in Shamans, Mystics, and Doctors (1980), Kakar depicts rural women's anger and observes a cleavage between the traditional and modern, and between the Western and Asian. The frustrations and humiliations arising from group narcissism are a chief and continuing theme in many of his works. Kakar believes these lie at the basis of violence between Hindus and Muslims, but he fails to give much in terms of a historical and anthropological understanding of Hindu-Muslim riots.
Specifically, three interconnected aspects of Kakar's account of communal conflict warrant scrutiny. These are (a) a presumption that Indian personality development creates an uncertain mental condition which, in times of social tension, gives rise to instant violence; (b) a contention that Hindu males' religious values, as agents in representation, are psychologically socialized by confrontational religious ethics; and (c) an undue conformity with the "crowd" thesis of Gustave Le Bon (1895) who, although not dear to the hearts of contemporary psychoanalysts, deserves serious assessment. Knowing that disorderly behavior is primarily the preserve of the more deviant, transient or criminal-minded sections with a predilection for antisocial or violent behaviour, (3) we may ask whether emphasis on the destructive and disordering capacities of cultural attitude potentially distorts our understanding of morality and social behavior before rioting. Does religiously-charged extreme ethnicity psychologically disable and disorganize the Indian composite cultural templates that legitimately inform everyday interaction in normal conditions?
"Postmodernity" in Riots
Postmodernity, a notion of emancipatory politics has, among others, two broad messages. Firstly, each culture has its own standards (not conforming to cultural relativism) for judging "reality", and none is inherently superior to any other. In other words, meta (grand) narrative does not explain "reality" in different situations. Critics, however, make a valid point in arguing that the reality construction is too optimistic. …
