Goldman's Take On The FOMC Statement
Goldman, whose Bill Dudley runs the New York Fed, and the Fed in general, gives the official party line on how to interpret the Fed's statement. Summary: all is well.
BOTTOM LINE: On net the FOMC statement is very close to our expectations as the FOMC upgrades its description of the economic outlook, acknowledges the impact of oil prices on inflation, and softens (but retains) the "significant downside risks" phrase.
1. On net the FOMC statement is very close to our expectations. In particular, the FOMC continues to see "significant downside risks" but softened this statement to acknowledge that "strains in global financial markets have eased." In the same vein the committee dropped the phrase "notwithstanding some slowing in global growth" from the first paragraph.
2. As expected, the FOMC upgraded its assessment of the economic outlook. First, the committee acknowledges that the unemployment rate has declined "notably" in recent months, and that it expects it to decline "gradually" (instead of "only gradually"). Second, the committee upgraded its assessment of business fixed investment from "has slowed" to "has continued to advance." Third, the committee now expects "moderate" instead of "modest" growth over the coming quarters.
3. The FOMC acknowledges the likely implications of the recent run-up in energy prices. First, the statement continues to say that "inflation has been subdued in recent months," but the committee added "although prices of crude oil and gasoline have increased lately." Second, the committee acknowledges that "the recent increase in oil and gasoline prices will push up inflation temporarily" but continues to anticipate that "subsequently inflation will run at or below the rate that it judges most consistent with its dual mandate."
4. Richmond Fed President Lacker again dissented against the action at today's meeting. However, he strengthened the rationale for his dissent. He now says that he "does not anticipate that economic conditions are likely to warrant exceptionally low levels of the federal funds rate through late 2014." Previously, he had only dissented against the forward-looking language.
BOTTOM LINE: The FOMC signaled that policy rates will remain low "at least through late 2014". The next release at 2pm will clarify how this relates to meeting participants' new funds rate forecasts.

If you're a depositor this could mean your interest rate ramps up another .001% through 2014. All's well.
JPM's take: raise div; authorize share buyback.
Ain't life grand!
It was 2007, 2008 and all banks where buying back shares for a reason...
"Ceci n'est pas un dollar"
it's as if they saw the FOMC statement days ago ...
Minority reporT kind of stuff?
it's the part about the market running like a steam engine that I think is confusing Kito
confusing to who? i dont see the stock market as particularly relevant to gold price movement. its all about what the fed does. gold down over 30 as we speak. its simple.....
Wake me when it goes back under $400, which is where the dollar average on my holdings is. Hey, look the market is almost back to where is was in 2008.
I don't see the price of gold particulary relevant to much because outside of the people on this site, no one owns it. Those that do ain't selling. This site has been warning for months that the idea of QE going away would be very market negative.

If you can't trust the FED or goldman sachs, now who can you trust right?
How long until they punt Lacker? Or is he the token dissenting voice? Do they really need that nowadays, now that they've dropped all pretenses about meddling in the markets?
He is a token. Nothing more.
Have YOU bought your DJSPXAPPL yet?!!? Nuttin but green candles all the way to salvation.
OK, I'm putting an end to this right now - going all in on AAPL short-dated ATM calls, if that doesn't reverse this market, nothing will.
I'm thinkng the same thing.
16 march 250$ calls?
Time to throw in the towel on this one way market.
No QE, dollar down, inflation up, PM's down, what is driving this market apeshit up right now?
The new normal: Inverted flash-crash. So tradeable - if you can front-run!
It's fucking over...here comes the blow off top. DOW 100,000 by fucking Friday!
Is that the same Fed that said house prices had never fallen in the US? The same Fed that said sub-prime is contained?
Oh, OK, that Fed.
When irrationality sets in, a change in course is imminent!
what the...?!?!
"All is well"
Thank God. I was getting worried. And here I was thinking that the market is broken and manipulated. Silly me. I was convinced that the market is obsessed with QE not just because it's easy money, but because it is now the only money. Imagine I was so stupid that I believed that massive money printing by central banks around the world (who have eased 75 times in the past few years) has anything to do with soaring food and fuel prices.
I was blind not to realize that no jobs, no growth, and sovereign defaults would not equal a parabolic bull market.
All is indeed well. I'll move along now. Nothing to see.
What clown on this board is junking good posts? Someone from the Fed?
Today is exactly one year since my long term silver spot price prediction chart was created and published on March 13th, 2011, here:
Disregard most of the text, please, except advice for silver buying in the end:
[quote]So, keep silver, but You can buy or repurchase it cheaper during 2011-early 2012 than now. [/quote]
I will take the opportunity given by this anniversary to analyze the charts accuracy during and over one year.
One year ago, on Friday, March 11, 2011, Silver closing spot price was 35,9USD/Oz. In my chart on March 13,2011 I predicted that Silver closing spot price on March 13th, 2012 will be 32,5 USD/oz. Today it is 33,2 as I write. So the accuracy of this END-to-END prediction over one year period is about 2 %.
Here You can see the shorter term part of the same chart ( red color) with comparison to actual silver spot prices over the year period. I would like to suggest what would have been stacker actions he/she would have followed the chart:
1) He/she would never had bought silver above 32,5 USD but waited until it falls below it-except if he wanted to make short term profit on the peaks and troughs in April and August-September by going long before the peak and short at or after the peak.
2) He/she would have bought like hell in October 2011 when closing price was in the range 30-32
3) He/she would have been happily surprised by drop in December -January 2012 and buying with all his money when price went even below 30 USD
4) He/she would have never fallen into traps of April , August-September, October -November and February 2012 excitement and would not have bought above 32,5 -sold may be to make profit and bough back later.
Of course, no one is able to believe in any chart so much, especially from an unknown source, but some reliance on it after it had proved quite accurate ( don't by above 32,5) would have helped after September crash.
But now the scary part comes to test the chart- the fast raise and drop in silver which according to original chart should start already on April 1st 2012, and reach peak by October 2012, OR, according to the same chart that was little bit tuned (green) in October 17th, 2011- slower and later ( from mid June 2012, with a real sharp rise starting mid September, double top November-December 2012).
From both charts, I would say start to believe its going to hit 60-70 in 2012 once its over 45-50 But there will be a crash again, so buying above 45-50 without intent to sell at the peak is not advisable.
Can't wait to see what will happen. I do not trade, but have bought some physical gold to test own charting. If I am as lucky as usual in financial matters, I will loose money. Hope that helps.
All my prediction charts are in one place here:
They can hide, but they can't run...
it's a disappointment!

Humbuckers of the Holy
Miller, Scott, Guitar Player
HOW DOES JIMMY PAGE GET SO MANY different sounds out of his Les Paul? --Christian Wheeler, Chesapeake, VA.
Jimmy Page has used a bunch of different guitars over the years: Teles, Les Pauls, Danelectros, and Strats to name a few. But live, he relies on a modified Les Paul for many of his tones. This, the mother of all wiring mods, comes as close as it gets to putting all of those sounds into one two-humbucker instrument. The individual wiring aspects of this mod are not particularly complicated, but there are a heap of them. For those of you with adequate soldering chops (and patience), have at it and have fun. The accompanying diagram has all the info you need to trick your guitar out. For the rest of you, bring this article and your guitar to a qualified tech.
You will need four 500k push/pull pots to allow the selection and combination of the different sounds this rood provides. Your pickups must have four-conductor lead wire to work in this configuration. One caveat: The color-coded wires in the diagram are for Seymour Duncan pickups, but this mod works with any four-conductor humbuckers. (For a wire-color translation chart for several pickup manufacturers, go to seymourduncan.com/pdfs/support/sche matics/color_codes.pdf.)
The push/pull Volume pots will be used for coil-split switches for each pickup. This alone will give you tons of tonal variety that stock LP's are not capable of, by letting you switch either pickup from a humbucker to a single-coil.
The bridge pickup's push/pull Tone control is a phase switch that, when pulled up, electronically reverses the phase of the bridge pickup. …

Even though their names won't appear on the same ballot until August, Republican Hamblen County Mayor Bill Brittain and Independent challenger Nigel Reid II faced each other at the Morristown Area Chamber of Commerce candidate forum at Walter State Community College's International Lyceum.
Following the format outlined, the two men each had two minutes to speak to the large crowd, and then each answered a trio of questions and, finally, were allowed closing remarks. Brittain told the crowd how his 16 years as County Trustee gave him a unique perspective as county mayor. "Because I'd been a department head in another department in county government, I could take those lessons learned and apply them on a broader scale," he said.
He said much of the job is fostering positive working relationships with other elected officials on multiple levels
"I have those good working relationships with all the other elected officials. We trust each other because we respect each other. By working together over the last four years county government has been willing to address some of the more difficult issues instead of ignoring them and we've been able to make progress."
As a former county trustee, Brittain said he is pleased with the county's financial status.
"During an election cycle you hear a lot of negatives, but I can tell you this: Hamblen County is sound financially," he said. "We have a large reserve. Our debt is low. Our credit is good. People look to Hamblen County as a leader. Not only in its finances but in its work creating a solid financial base, not just for Hamblen County but also in the entire Lakeway region."
Reid said that while he'd keep his comments short, he's is making himself available to the people of Hamblen County.
"I'm here for you guys," he told the crowd. "To hear the voice of anyone that has any concern of anything going on with politics, government and our system here. If I'm elected, I promise that I will keep … an open door policy for anyone that's concerned for anything."
Reid said the community needs a jail designed for 21st century needs, a community center and a drug rehabilitation center.
"I personally believe that anyone who steals taxpayers' money should be in prison," he said.
He added that the school system should pay more attention to special needs students and help them achieve their goals.
"Hear their voice and hear their concerns," he said.
When asked about the situation at the animal shelter, which is managed by the county's Humane Society, Reid said the first thing needed is a new facility where the animals can be taken care of in proper fashion.
Brittain, who with Morristown Mayor Danny Thomas, created a committee to examine the shelter situation after several issues arose, including an employee possibly embezzling funds, the loss of non-profit status and the lapse of workers compensation insurance that was discovered when an employee was bitten.
Brittain said the issue is bigger even than that handful of complaints.
Ultimately, Brittain said, he thinks the commission will grant the humane society a year to get the various situations worked out, but the board must function in a way as to meet the standard expected of agencies receiving taxpayer dollars.
"Yes, I think giving another year is OK," Brittain said. "But I think all the agencies that have county funds and city funds need to understand that they need to manage those funds responsibly."

Here's more on how Google, blogs, etc. supposedly turn our brains into grape Jell-o. (Previous post here.)
On tonight's NewsHour with Jim Lehrer, John Merrow interviews George Parker, president of the Washington Teachers Union. Here's a teaser from the transcript:
GEORGE PARKER: Prior to charter schools, for the most part, I think that as a union we could relax a little bit, because for the most part we were the only kid on the block.????And you pretty much had to come to us.????Unless you could afford to send your child to a private school or et cetera, you had no other choices.
I said I'd do it, and I meant it. We begin with this portion from our latest "watch-worthy" post??(the basic point of which is that the blogger does not like gender-based college admissions preferences but??is fine with??race-based ones):
Because minority students are less likely to attend well-funded schools and less likely to get strong college prep curricula in high school, on average they enter the college admissions pool with weaker credentials than white students, and thus end up disproportionately attending less selective colleges. Affirmative action counteracts this, with the result being within-college racial/ethnic makeups that are more representative of the college student body as a whole.
Affirmative action "counteracts" the fact that minority students (black and Latino students, really) in general "enter the college admissions pool with weaker credentials than white students" only insofar as it overlooks those credentials. Affirmative action does nothing to solve the underlying problem, which is a yawning gap between the qualifications of black and Latino college applicants and those of their white and Asian counterparts. Instead, it simply ignores the??disparity and gives leniency to applicants of lesser academic qualifications as long as they??manage to be??black or Latino, which is troublesome for all...
Jay Greene's blog led me to this, from the Cato Institute's Andrew Coulson:
To the left is a 1971 Chevrolet Impala. According to the New York Times of September 25th, 1970, it originally sold for $3,460. That's $19,011 in today's dollars. If cars were like public schools, you would be compelled to buy one of these today, and to pay $43,479 for that privilege (2.3 times the original price).
The bold portion presumably designates the bit that Coulson finds??totally whack (or is it wack, derivation wacky?), and he's right.??Coby is a big libertarian, so I bet he'll be pretty, pretty, pretty??steamed to discover that America's??public schools are actually??Impalas, especially when school systems already spend so much money on buses.
If you live in Seattle and you just can't seem to slake your thirst for discussions about school diversity, I'll be on the David Boze talk-radio show today, chatting about the direction that some districts (including, perhaps, Seattle) are taking their school-assignment plans. Much auditory??hand wringing and finger wagging??promises to??go down.
Over twenty years ago, Bill Bennett popularized the term, "The Education Blob." The Blob is the seemingly infinite ocean of alphabet-soup organizations that lobby on behalf of educators and in opposition to any reforms that might upset the status quo. The teachers unions are the blobbiest of The Blob, but they have many allies in administrator associations, school board groups, professional associations, etc.
So to illustrate the intransigence of The Education Blob to adopt positive change, I hereby announce our new weekly feature, The Blobbiest Quote of the Week. And now, the inaugural winner...
Richard Flanary, the director of professional development services for the National Association of Secondary School Principals (NASSP for short), who was quoted in Thursday's Education Daily (available to subscribers only, of which I think there are about 74) responding to John McCain's call for greater authority for school principals:
Certainly we support greater spending autonomy, but there needs to be more clarity on the criteria on which principals make these decisions. Principals already?? have very busy schedules, and I would hate to think that they would get caught in a situation where they are the purveyors of funds.
Yes, that would...
I wouldn't link so often to pieces on NRO if a) such pieces weren't so interesting and b) weren't so well written. Even that outlet's??more langorous languorous libations manage to refresh. Here's just such an article, by John Derbyshire, which uses??about 800 words more than needed to make its point but which is nonetheless fully enjoyable.??
Derbyshire notes that most Americans, accustomed to observing inequality in most things, bristle when inequality of "smarts" crosses their paths. "The problem with this smartocracy," he writes, "is, we have this itchy feeling that it's un-American." He makes many of the arguments usually associated with Charles Murray, who is not shy about pointing out that people with low I.Q.s are, generally, not going to do well in school and that not much can be done about it. (Murray makes precisely this argument in his forthcoming book, Real Education.)
Yes and no, of course. While it doesn't hurt to acknowledge that a bell curve exists in academic achievement, as in most things, it's tough to prove that the entire curve can't be moved--i.e., that "average" can't become better.
But Derbyshire is right that scads of people don't like...
I heard this morning on NPR that murmers have it that Senator John McCain, in order to distract from Senator Barack Obama's European travels, will perhaps announce this week??his running mate. Looks like McCain plans to be in Louisiana on Wednesday, which is the state governed by Bobby Jindal, a sharp character who is reportedly high on McCain's vice presidential grocery list.
Jindal, though, is no longer on a??honeymoon with his state's voters.??He's not on a honeymoon with science, either.
Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush talks education.
I've gotten lots of feedback about my Education Gadfly column on extra-curricular activities; several friends have written gleefully to make the connection between my piece and Randi Weingarten's big speech last week, particularly its call for schools as community centers. (Checker made that connection in the Gadfly itself.)
That's all in good fun, and yes, on the surface, it might appear that we're talking about the same thing. But upon closer inspection, you'll find that our visions are actually polar opposites. First, here's Randi:
Can you imagine a federal law that promoted community schools--schools that serve the neediest children by bringing together under one roof all the services and activities they and their families need... and suppose the schools included child care and dental, medical, and counseling clinics, or other services the community needs.
And now me:
Here's a suggestion: architects designing high schools of the future should skip the classrooms but keep the gym, the auditorium, and other common spaces. In other words, forget the "school" and build a "community center" instead. Kids could learn academics at home and come to the center for all the rest.
Randi's vision...

I knew that it wasn't high end or capable of matching the quality and work of more expensive tablets. I wasn't looking for that. All I wanted was something to do notes on, download a few bibles as I am a pastor and be able to easily watch movies, listen to music, just the basic stuff. This tablet is HORRIBLE. My 3 year old nephew would look at my crazy if I gave him this. Save your money and look for another item.

Piston Pumps and Plunger Pumps Information
Image Credit: Binks | Haskel International, Inc. | Clark Solutions
Piston pumps and plunger pumps are reciprocating positive displacement pumps that use a plunger or piston to move media through a cylindrical chamber. They are also called well service pumps, high pressure pumps, or high viscosity pumps because they can deliver high pump pressures and are capable of handling both viscous and solids containing media.
Piston pumps and plunger pumps are positive displacement pumps, meaning they use contracting and expanding cavities to move fluids. Specifically, they are reciprocating pumps, which have cavities that expand and contract in a reciprocating (back and forth; up and down) motion rather than a circular (rotary) motion. For more information about this category of pumps, visit the Positive Displacement Pumps Selection Guide page on IHS Engineering360.
Single action plunger pump. Image Credit: Animatedsoftware.com
Piston pumps and plunger pumps use a mechanism (typically rotational) to create a reciprocating motion along an axis, which then builds pressure in a cylinder or working barrel to force gas or fluid through the pump. The pressure in the chamber actuates the valves at both the suction and discharge points.
Double-action plunger pump. Image Credit: pistonpump.org
Piston pumps and plunger pumps can be distinguished by design based on type, pump action, and the number of cylinders.
There are many types of piston pumps and plunger pump designs, but they all employ at least one piston moving in an enclosed cylinder. Specific types of designs include axial and radial piston pumps.
Axial piston pumps contain a number of pistons attached to a cylindrical block which move in the same direction as the block's centerline (axially). Much of the pressure and flow control circuitry can be included internally, allowing for reliable operation and simple design of the associated hydraulic system.

Here is a video visual of an axial piston pump assembly:
Video Credit: InsaneHydraulics
Radial piston pumps contain pistons arranged like wheel spokes around a cylindrical block. A drive shaft rotates this cylindrical block which pushes or slings the pistons, causing compression and expansion. The eccentricity between the piston housing and cylinder block centerlines determines the piston stroke. These pumps have a low noise level, very high loads at the lowest speeds, and high efficiency.
Image Credit: Hydrowatt
Pump Action
Pump action determines what directions the piston/plunger moves to perform fluid suction and discharge. The diagram below illustrates.
Image Credit: Engineers Edge.
Single acting pumps have one valve on each end, where suction and discharge take place in opposite directions.
Double acting pumps utilize two valves on each end, allowing suction and discharge in both directions.
Number of Cylinders
The number of pump cylinders is the number of pumping cylinders in the pump. Increasing the number of pump cylinders increases the capacity of the pump.
Simplex pumps have one cylinder.
Duplex pumps have two cylinders.
Multiplex pumps have more than two cylinders.
The primary specifications to consider when selecting pumps are flowrate, stroke volume, pump head, pressure, horsepower, power rating, outlet diameter, and operating temperature. These specifications are described in detail in GlobalSpec's Pump Flow page.
The material(s) of a pump should be considered based on type of application. The base (casing) and housing (cylinder) materials should be of adequate strength and also be able to hold up against the conditions of its operating environment. Materials in contact with the pumped media (the plunger, discharge valves, and suction valves) need to be resistant to any corrosion induced by the fluid. Some materials used are listed below.
- Cast iron provides high tensile strength, durability, and abrasion resistance corresponding to high pressure ratings.
(Image Credit: Hydraulic Pumps)
- Plastics are inexpensive and provide extensive resistance to corrosion and chemical attack.
(Image Credit: Direct Industry)
Steel and stainless steel alloys provide protection against chemical and rust corrosion and have higher tensile strengths than plastics, corresponding to higher pressure ratings.

Other materials used in pump construction include:

Centrifugal Pumps
Centrifugal pumps consist of a set of rotating vanes, enclosed within a housing or casing, that are used to impart energy to a fluid through centrifugal force.
Condensate Pumps
Condensate pumps are used to collect and transport condensate back into a steam system for reheating and reuse, or to remove unwanted condensate from an HVAC or appliance collection pan.
Diaphragm Pumps
Diaphragm pumps use a diaphragm that moves back and forth to transport liquids from one place to another.
Drum Pumps
Drum pumps are used to transfer materials from a container into a process or other container. They may be electrically, hydraulically, or pneumatically powered depending on the working environment or application.
Gear Pumps
Gear pumps use intermeshing gears to pump various types of liquids. Typically, one gear is the driver and the other is free wheeling. The gears have very tight tolerances so that the fluid being pumped cannot pass through them. Common uses for gear pumps include high pressure, metering, and flow control applications.
Metering Pumps
Metering pumps are positive displacement pumps designed to dispense precise amounts of fluids and measured flow control.
Screw Pumps
Screw pumps are rotary, positive displacement pumps that have one or more screws to transfer fluids or materials along an axis.

We live on a busy road and needs to replace our two windows that face the street. Are there windows that reduce noice from outside? Thanks
Yes, they are called acoustic windows. But you will get noise reduction with any high-quality replacement window if installed properly. The acoustic windows just offer a higher level of noise resistance.

Renewable energy fight delayed in Senate
MONTPELIER — The Vermont Senate is delaying a debate about a measure that one side says aims to strengthen reviews of ridge-top wind power projects and the other says would bring development of renewable energy in the state to a halt.
Senate Bill 30 is being pushed by critics of wind projects that they say have been damaging Vermont's mountaintops without significantly reducing the state's greenhouse gas emissions. It would call for the Legislature's Joint Energy Committee to examine reports from an energy siting commission and the Department of Public Service and draft legislation for action next winter.
Meanwhile, for the next 15 months, the Public Service Board would shift the way it reviews renewable energy projects to give more weight to environmental criteria and less to the need for power.MORE IN This Just InWATERBURY CENTER The Harwood golf team closed out the regular season Wednesday on its home...

After three consecutive years of playoff futility that saw the Rochester Americans ousted in the first round of the AHL playoffs, the club made a nice run in the 2003-04
postseason only to fall in the Western Conference final to their new nemesis, the Milwaukee Admirals. Although a series loss on the brink of the Calder Cup final was no doubt some hard medicine for the Amerks, the upside was that the team experienced some success with a roster that included several young NHL prospects.
Many of those same young prospects are returning to the 2004-05 edition of the Amerks, with some additional highly touted young guns added to the mix.
Rochester's parent club, the Buffalo Sabres, signed two first round selections in the offseason, including 2002 selection and former Guelph Storm star Daniel Paille, and former Frozen Four MVP and 2003 top pick Tomas Vanek. In addition to those two highly anticipated signings, the Amerks also inked young Sabres defenseman Jeff Jillson to an AHL contract, which adds three former first round picks to a lineup already sporting some emerging young talent.
The foundation for the Amerks success last season was the special teams units, which included a power play that ranked first overall in the AHL plus the eighth-ranked penalty killing contingent. The powe Read more»

Recently, GamePolitics reported on a secret shopper investigation conducted in three Washington counties at the behest of State Rep. Mary Lou Dickerson. The Democrat is a longtime critic of video game violence and was the sponsor of a 2003 video game law which was eventually declared unconstitutional by a federal judge.
In Dickerson's recent sting, underage buyers were able to purchase M-rated games just over half the time. Dickerson commented, "That's kind of a shocking statistic. I didn't expect it to be as bad as it was."
Now, GamePolitics has obtained the raw data logs which detail that investigation. According to the documents, a clerk at a Blockbuster in Burien, WA, sold a copy of Halo 2 to a 15-year-old girl, asking her:
Ready to have a party and shoot some people?
On the other hand, a clerk at a GameStop in South Center Tukwila told the girl:
I am sorry. I will lose my job if I sell to you.
Rep. Dickerson's Legislative Assistant Melissa Bailey told GamePolitics that the survey was more of a spot check rather than a definitive study of the issue.
This was not intended to be scientific. We just conducted a simple check to see if underage kids can buy M-rated games.
Check the logs out for yourself (MS Word format): King County, Thurston County, Snohomish County.

Scientists across many disciplines including acoustics, music, composing, psychology and design are part of the project. They will be studying the optimum method of delivering the information to the car driver. The researchers will be concentrating on sound – engineering acoustics as the main area along with the other disciplines. They will decide on how signals are to be composed for providing information about the type, urgency and risk of the object nearby.
The team intends to discover a design methodology for noise, in the way designers visualize images, using a holistic approach and ideas from musicians and composers. They will "sketch sound" and then use visual and auditory interfaces for communicating this information with the decision makers.
The researchers will decide on the best method and form to convey the information so that it does not affect the safety of the driver. In the lab, the researchers demonstrated that the placement of sounds affected the performance of the driving person. They are working on technology that will enable them to place the sound anywhere, including outside the vehicle.
The Swedish transport administration and Volvo are co-financing the project with seven million SEK.

Wintergirls is a young adult novel by Laurie Halse Anderson. It follows the story of Lia, an eighteen-year-old girl dealing with anorexia nervosa. The novel opens with the news that Lia's best friend of 10 years, Cassie, who was bulimic, has died, and the night she died, she tried to call Lia 33 times. The novel follows the course of Lia's struggles with anorexia, her difficult relationships with her parents and stepmother, and her search to learn about Cassie's fate.
The Washington Post called the book "both painful to read and riveting". The New York Times said that "We recognize Lia, but it's sometimes hard to relate to her."

Border fence makes sense
Last week I wrote about my recent visit to the U.S.-Mexico border in western San Diego County, and about how much had changed there since the federal government built a 9 1/2-mile, state-of-the-art border fence to deter illegal immigration.
And as I said in the column, compared with 15 or 20 years ago, when that section of the border was essentially wide open, the change is nothing short of astonishing. Unlike in the old days, when hundreds of illegal immigrants swarmed across that section of the border every day, pursued by a handful of overwhelmed U.S. Border Patrol agents, today the illegal cross-border traffic in that 9 1/2-mile section is a relative trickle.
True, it's not just the fence - actually, it's two fences running parallel - that caused apprehensions of illegal border crossers in the fenced section to plummet by 95 percent during the past 15 years. (The number of apprehensions is accepted as a rough indicator of how many people are trying to cross.) It's also a result of putting in high-tech security gear - cameras, motion sensors, etc. - and a more than doubling of Border Patrol agents in the San Diego sector.
Still, if the border fencing system in western San Diego County works so well, wouldn't it make sense to build more of it? And if we managed to more effectively control the U.S.-Mexico border, wouldn't that solve the illegal immigration problem?
The answers are yes - and no.
Last fall Congress passed a bill calling for an additional 700 miles of San Diego-style double-fencing along the 2,000-mile border - although in the end it was left to the Department of Homeland Security (which includes the Border Patrol) to decide how much of it to actually build. And as far as the Border Patrol is concerned, fences are only part of the solution.
"The idea of creating a 'Great Wall of China' all along the border isn't really practical," says Supervisory Border Patrol Agent Robert Harvey. "But that doesn't mean that we can't have operational control of that area."
The way the Border Patrol sees it, it doesn't make economic or law-enforcement sense to build a continuous fence, and the roads and other infrastructure to support it, over every mountain peak and vast expanse of empty desert along the border - this at an initial cost of up to $3 million per mile or more, depending on how many lawsuits are filed by environmental groups and others to try to stop it.
Instead, the Border Patrol would prefer a series of San Diego-style fences along populated sections of the border, which would channel illegal crossers out to remote areas where they are more easily seen, and more easily caught. In those areas the Border Patrol would set up a defense in depth, using cameras, sensors, aircraft and expanded manpower to nab illegal crossers before they can make it to the roads to carry them north.
That's what's happening in the 66-mile San Diego Border Patrol sector. Fifteen years ago more than half a million people a year were caught illegally crossing the border into San Diego County. Now, with the fences pushing border-crossers eastward, and expanded technology and Border Patrol manpower waiting for them there, that number has dropped about 70 percent - and it's only logical that if that same border protection system was expanded it would reduce the flow of illegal border-crossers elsewhere as well.
And remember, we aren't just talking about illegal immigrants simply seeking work. Controlling the border isn't just an economic issue - it's a security issue as well.
"People don't realize how many criminals are coming across," says Senior Border Patrol Agent Matt Johnson, whose usual "beat" is the rough country east of the fenced area. "I've arrested smugglers, murderers, child molesters….You just don't know who these people are."
As for the people who really are just seeking a better life, well, Johnson says: "We enforce the immigration laws. And they're committing a crime."
Of course, in the history of the world there has never been a border that somebody wasn't able to climb over or dig under or sneak across. But given enough fences, and enough resources to back them up, it's certainly possible to drastically reduce the illegal traffic across the southern border.
Unfortunately, that by itself won't solve the illegal immigration problem.
A more secure southern border wouldn't do anything about the estimated 12 million or more illegal immigrants who are already here. A more secure southern border wouldn't by itself force the governments of Mexico and other countries to provide for their own people, instead of actively encouraging them to come here illegally by foot or plane or boat.
And a more secure southern border wouldn't force American employers, large and small, to stop hiring illegal immigrants, in the process creating an economic and social underclass that is ripe for crime and exploitation.
No, addressing those problems would require some hard choices and tough decisions - and so far, our politicians have generally proved themselves spineless in making them.
So, yes, more border barriers will help. But if we really want to fix the problem of illegal immigration, we as a nation - and our politicians in particular - can't just build a fence.
We'll also have to grow a spine.

Oklahoma football: Bob Stoops should talk about Justin Brown's recruitment
Bob Stoops wouldn't talk about how OU came to land Penn State receiver Justin Brown. When asked Tuesday how the Sooners came into contact with Brown, Stoops said, "I don't need to detail all that. That's a long time ago now."
I have no idea what he means by "a long time ago." From the NCAA announcement that Penn State would be punished so severely that every Nittany would be allowed to transfer to any school and play immediately, until Brown's arrival in Norman, was 14 days. A fortnight. That's not a long time ago.
The issue of how Penn State players have been recruited became a national story when several schools sent coaches to State College, Pa., to set up satellite recruiting posts. That drew the anger of not just Penn State officials, but other coaches thought it was a little much. You can read my thoughts on that here.
There is no reason to think OU did indeed anything wrong in the way it recruited Brown. No reason unless Stoops wants to go all secretive. Did Brown contact OU first? Or did OU reach out to Brown? Did Stoops call Penn State coach Bill O'Brien as a courtesy, which is really all O'Brien said he wanted from any coach? On Stoops' tour of ESPN in late July, he said on the Mike & Mike radio show that he didn't know how feasible it would be for every coach interested in a Penn State player to call O'Brien. That O'Brien might not be able to take all those calls.
I don't know about that. But I know if Bob Stoops calls Bill O'Brien, O'Brien is taking the call. Let's not get silly here.
Down in Dallas after the Penn State penalties were announced, Stoops was asked how most transfer recruitments work. Here was his response: "Usually when that happens, it's through high school coaches. In our case, if there's a tight end or receiver around, you never know. It's one of those, hey, what are your needs? Sometimes you know a high school coach or you know the kid had interest because he was one of your visits (out of high school), or you had recruited him a long time and you knew you had a good relationship with him. So I don't know. See how that all unfolds."
As far as anyone knows, OU didn't recruit Justin Brown out of high school. Primarily because the guy's from Delaware. And there's nothing wrong with the Sooners bringing in Brown. The NCAA made the rule, Penn State has to live with it. But one thing we've learned during this entire Penn State mess, from the scandal itself down to even the disbursement of its players, is that ethics should not be suspended for any reason. It's never the wrong time to do the right thing.
There is no evidence that OU did the wrong thing in recruiting Justin Brown. Other than its coach not wanting to talk about it.
Sorry, but the circumstances mean coaches should talk about it. Kansas State coach Bill Snyder tried clamming up down in Dallas. Said he was there to talk about Kansas State, not Penn State. Snyder is one of my all-time favorites, but let's set the scene. There are two places in America where football coaches are revered more than anyone else. Two places where coaches at least had the possibility of trumping the academic and administrative power structure. Two places where football coaches went past iconic status and into virtual god-like status.
Penn State and Kansas State. At Penn State, that coach had a mighty fall. And we were sitting there talking to the other one. It was Snyder's duty to his school and to his sport and frankly to America, to address the Penn State scandal and tell us if and/or why the possibility of abuse of power would be less at K-State than it was at Penn State.
Here's one of the bedrock truths that came out of the Penn State tragedy. We need football coaches to be more transparent. We need them to talk more. Not less.

Dancing With The Stars
Who Will Go Home Next in Dancing With the Stars Season 20, Week 5? (POLL)
Congrats to the final nine couples of Dancing With the Stars Season 20 — you made it to Disney Week! That's what's coming up this Monday, April 13 in Week 5. But, alas, someone has to turn into a pumpkin at the end of that night, based on the scores and votes from Week 4.
Here's the Week 4 Most Memorable Year leaderboard:
Willow Shields and Mark Ballas — 39
Nastia Liukin and Derek Hough — 36
Rumer Willis and Val Chmerkovskiy — 35
Riker Lynch and Allison Holker — 34
Robert Herjavec and Kym Johnson — 34
Noah Galloway and Sharna Burgess — 32
Patti LaBelle and Artem Chigvintsev — 30
Suzanne Somers and Tony Dovolani — 28
Chris Soules and Witney Carson — 27
From here, it looks like the bottom three names are most in danger. Chris may get a boost since he's in the Obviously Needs Votes zone and he was once again given extra low scores — including a 6 from Len Goodman — despite dancing a Rumba for his fiancee. That had to sting. Patti had a showstopping Jazz that got the crowd going, even if the scores weren't as effusive as the praise. Patti is a great entertainer, but she's not on the same level of dancing as most of the other competitors. Does that matter? At this point, we're still guessing no.
Suzanne may be the one to go this week, after a Three's Company-themed Foxtrot that got 7s and put her just one point above the bottom of the leaderboard, which is a dangerous place to be. You're not so obviously in need of help and sometimes that spot gets overlooked. Plus, Suzanne and Tony were declared "safe" and not "in jeopardy," and even though "in jeopardy" doesn't actually mean anything, fans often come away thinking that couple almost went home. The judges and hosts openly pushed for the couples "in jeopardy" to get votes, so it may actually be a bonus to get that designation. Chris, Suzanne, and Patti were all declared safe with no drama, so they may not have gotten the kind of vote boosts that Riker and Alison got from their fans, who probably believed that Rallison ("not necessarily the bottom two") almost went home.
The spring season has a fun group, but someone has to go. Sadly, we predict that Suzanne and Tony will leave on Disney Night. Do you agree or disagree? Share your prediction in the poll.
I think Suzanne & Tony will leave
I don't think Suzanne & Tony will leave

Enterprise Vault - Store ID Environment Variable
Enabling certain Vault Cache functions via Group Policy (i.e. OVEnabled) is made more difficult by the fact that if the registry already exists under \Client\<Store Id>\ then you can't change the setting by adding the key under \Client\ because it already exists under \Client\<Store Id>\.
A solution to this would be if the development team could set an environment variable in Windows to the Store Id. I don't know how you would approach this, but I have seen the Id in the hidden mailbox mesage under IPM.EnterpriseVault.OfflineVault:, under the Store Id entry.
By passing this entry to an environment variable it would make it possible to be referenced by logon scripts and ADM templates.
IF anyone knows how to do this now, it would save me alot of grief ;-) Send me a PM if you know how...

This is essentially alreday possible with the key Vault Cache/Virtual Vault registry values from EV 9.0 or later.We did not implement an environmental variable however we widened the location for EV to detect these values. Check out this technote for more information: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?pag....
In summary you can now use common HKLM and HKCU registry locations to set Vault Cache and Virtual Vault values.

Porto Rico v. Title Guaranty & Surety Co.
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Porto Rico v. Title Guaranty & Surety Co., 227 U.S. 382 (1913)
Porto Rico v. Title Guaranty & Surety Company
No. 154
Argued January 30, 1913
Decided February 24, 1913
In this case, held that a bond given in pursuance of an ordinance, for faithful performance of a contract, was solely for the complete result at the end of the period specified, and that it did not permit a recovery of the whole penalty upon any intermediate breach.
Breaches of subordinate requirements, which are specified in a contract for a public utility and bond for performance and are simply means to an end, cannot be made the basis of recovering the whole penalty after final completion or after cancellation by the obligee of the franchise.
If within time for completion of a public utility authorized by ordinance, the municipality itself makes performance impossible, it cannot, under any system of law in Porto Rico or elsewhere, recover upon the bond for failure to perform.
180 F. 641 affirmed.
The facts, which involve the liability of a surety company on a bond given for faithful performance of a contract, are stated in the opinion.

After completing the acquisition of Wockhardt Groups nutrition business three months ago, Nutricia International, a subsidiary of Danone, the French-based multinational group specialising in food and beverages, is planning to relaunch its acquired brand Protinex with value additions and new packaging.
The companys strategy is to grow our acquired brands in India. We are planning to relaunch Protinex with new content, taste and packaging, said Anver Moola, managing director,Nutricia Medical Nutrition, India & Africa.
The company is currently conducting consumer research programmes before introducing its global brands in India. To understand the specific needs of Indian consumers, the company is also talking to doctors and opinion leaders before finalising its global launches.
With a turnover of 19 billion euros, Danone currently has global presence in baby nutrition, medical nutrition, fresh dairy products and beverages.
After acquiring Wockhardts nutritional brands, Danone formally entered Indias baby food and medical nutrition market in August this year with Dexolac, Farex, Nusobee and Protinex brands.
According to Moola, the company plans to sell its brand Protinex both in retail shops as well as in medical stores across the country. We will be using the web and social media to promote our medical nutrition brands in India, he added.
On the companys acquisition plans, Moola said at this stage Nutricia is focused only on bedding down the acquisition of the Protinex brand. We dont want any distractions from keeping full focus on our newly acquired business, he said. Headquartered in Mumbai, Nutricia currently employs 600 people across the country.
On the companys organic growth strategy, Moola said in both its baby and medical businesses the companys primary objective is to consolidate the brands that it had acquired. We intend investing in these brands to realise their full potential before we consider introducing any of our other brands into India, he said.
Laurent Marcel, MD of Nutricia International, said the companys core focus is on leverage the strength of its acquired brands in India with Danones expertise in the field of research & development, product and brand innovations. We are conducting consumer research programmes to know their preference before launching Danones select global brands in baby nutrition in India, he said.

Pinoy menu keeps Filipino-owned resto alive in Utah
UTAH – A Filipino restaurant owner decided to revamp his menu to cater to the growing Pinoy population in Salt Lake City.
The Five Star Restaurant is giving residents a chance to tour the Philippines with their taste buds.
"I think it's great because it gives the people of Salt Lake an opportunity to try a type of food that they probably never had before," said resident Parker Paulsen.
The restaurant isn't just a hit with Americans, it's also attracting Salt Lake's growing Filipino community.
"Sisig, kaldereta at saka pritong tilapia. Masarap," said a Pinay, Laurdes Tulin.
Business has not always been this good at Five Star Restaurant. In fact, back when the eatery only offered Thai and Chinese cuisine, its owner was struggling to make a profit.
"The economy went down and so of course, the restaurant business is the first one that will be affected," said restaurant owner Rudy Padua.
That's when Padua decided to change the make-up of his restaurant. In September, he revamped the menu with classic Pinoy dishes and desserts.
Since the switch to the Filipino theme, Padua said profits have skyrocketed.
"My Filipino customers are the only ones that's keeping me alive right now," said Padua. Balitang America

A professional baseball player can make the ball travel at speeds of up to 100 mph; even in amateur games the ball can cause serious injuries.
The pucks travel at impressive speeds, but that's not the only way players can get hurt. Goalies in particular know that skates and sticks can also do a lot of damage.
Unfortunately, sometimes rules are broken and so are the cups that should protect fighters. A kick to the groin will not only result in a fighter squirming in pain, it can also lead to some serious injuries.
Plastic cups will do just fine if you are playing football with your 3 year-old children, but they will certainly not be able to provide the appropriate protection against anyone old enough to throw the ball properly.
The helmet, gloves and pads are noticed by anyone but there is one special part of the protection gear that should not be overlooked even though it remains hidden: the cup.
Imagine an object travelling at an average of 70 mph hitting you on the arm. Now imagine it hitting a far more sensible area that lacks the protection of muscle mass and bones.
The job is rarely routine and on those occasions where hell breaks loose, being prepared is key. Bullet proof vests may protect the organs that will keep you alive, but what about protecting the most vital of organs?
All of the armor in the world is useless if a particular area of a man's anatomy is injured. A blow to the groin can bring a man to the ground in no time and put him in ever greater danger.
With a Nutshellz cup, I can do crossovers when I'm skating and don't even notice the cup is there. I go down to block shots and have no fear of having my cup shatter. This is the most comfortable cup I've worn. I love the design and the way it fits.

Great fit, I like the extra holes on the side for ventilation but also to attach home made straps.
While wearing this cup, you can go forward without worrying about your nuts.
