Chart Of The Day: LEI - Leading-To-Lagging Ratio
Via Lance Roberts of Street Talk Live,
While the general consensus from the media, and the majority of analysts, is that the U.S. economy will avoid a recession - there have been numerous indicators that have continued to point to deterioration in the economic fabric. Most recently industrial production in the U.S. dropped sharply, along with capacity utilization rates, due to the growing recession in Europe, and slowdown in China, which has impacted exports from domestic manufacturers.
This past week the monthly release of the Leading Economic Indicators showed that the leading-to-lagging indicator ratio dropped to 89.5 which matches the lowest level in more than 2 1/2 years. Historically when the leading-to-lagging ratio has fallen below 91 the economy was either in, or about to be in, a recession.
While it is not popular within the media, or blogosphere, to point out economic concerns but rather why markets are going to engage in a continued bull market - the simple reality is that by the time the NBER announces an official recession it will be far to late for investors to minimize the damage. The leading-to-lagging ratio continues to point to an economy that has very little, if any, actual momentum which leaves it very susceptible to exogenous shocks.
So, while there are many things to be thankful for within the economy this holiday season - it will pay for investors to continue to consider both sides of the economic argument as we move into 2013. Ignoring the trends of the macro-data could prove costly.

I'm short paper.
I think I'd be long rag paper... looks like a printing storm abrewin'.
Wonder if the data is available for the chart to be extended to the 1920s? I'd like to see how that scenario held up over a long time period -- not that this one ain't scary enough.
Wouldn't it be safe to say that there was never NOT a recession when this indicator was in this territory? I mean how sure does one have to be of this certainty.
America deserves a recession for "voting" Obama in again, a nice tough 1-2 year recession just to remind the masses how stupid they really are!
If I'm not mistaken, the last recession seems to have pre-dated Obama. Are you implying that "the other" candidate would have steered our course clear of the dreaded recession reefs? You are saying what exactly?
My view is that it's not who voted for whom, but that there was no viable alternative in this 2-party system. And that has been true for many, many election cycles now. If your solution is simply to vote for "the other guy", that has proven to be a faulty choice.
Quite right RockyRacoon. In fact most recessions over the last 150 years started under Republican administrations. Many complex factors go into creating recessions....not the least of which are schlerotic policies left over from previous administrations.....but the facts are the facts.....more recessions start under the Republicans. The down side of this is ususally there is a regime change to Democrats who wrongly take the credit for the post-recession improvement (note I did not say recovery....you can never recover from fiat induced booms without first eliminating fiat) when their policies put into place future hurt such as rampant debt. Then again....it was our Blessed Leader Ronald Reagan who opened that debt genie and bent over like no one else in American History to the Military Industrial Complex.
So yeah....in the end....it's a two party fisting-fest for us sheeple. But recessions do primarily start with Republicans since their banking pimps run rough-shod over the deregulation and banking gifts their Republican whores give to them.
All you need to know:
Ignoring the trends of macro data has been very profitable since March of 2009.
Green shoots that were actually withering sprouts left over from previous years that never grew.
Millions of jobs created out of thin air by the BLS, those that were actually created being minimum wage jobs going to people 55 and over.
$8 trillion more in debt with a couple hundred trillion dollars to go in unfunded liabilites.
Record people on food stamps, SS disability, a full 50% of the population receiving government assitance, over 50% of national income derived through government transfers. Corporations going out of business left and right. The real housing market still declining. 25 year low labor participation.
Yet, near record highs in stocks and a media celebrating that everthing is better than ever. As is was in the Soviet Block, propoganda can be very profitable to those with connections. You can watch your neighbor starve while the box claims there has never been a more bountiful harvest.
Agreed. It comes down to a question of corporate earnings, going forward. Gary Shilling says cost-cutting may have run its course.
The picture of Obama representing both the bankers and the mob is a very realistic one.
The international bankers' plan was to diversify the American public, not rent a mob but buy a mob, using the 1965 Immigration Act. This would split the nation into multiple factions, making it more difficult for a political party or mass movement to compose an opposition to banker rule. Its success was apparent in the 2012 election results.
The powerful minorities got the message, voting accordingly en masse, and now, America's middle class of small businessmen, doctors, skilled workers, engineers, property owners, savers and pensioners, is dead in the water unless it resists.
It is one thing for a country to lose a war; it means the enemy was stronger. But it is another for a country to lose its economy; it means the enemy was smarter.
America's economic occupation by a power other than the people began in 1913 with the Federal Reserve Act; the international bankers using control of the nation's money supply to since become absolute master of all the nation's industry and commerce, and all domestic and foreign policy.
This near absolute control was played out in the 2012 election which turned the nation over to a combination of bankers and the mob under Obama, i.e., with Robert Rubin and the Hispanics arm-in-arm; the Chicago boys, AIPAC and Bernanke all of one team.
Turning the country over to the mob, IMO, is the end not the beginning of mob rule. Because it now becomes a question of whether or not the bankers can finish the job. I say they can't.
It is the beginning of the final game with the tax-paying, property- owning middle class on one side and the low- and high-end takers on the other. In short, it is a question of whether the 2012 mob can finish the job of its socialist takeover of America, and I say, it can't.
The reason is that the mob is unmanageable, untamable, and uncontrollable and when it begins to believe, as it is now told, that all property is public, it will be only a matter of time before complete chaos ensues. And the political class won't have the ability to provide for the mob's demands.
IOW, the American people have to consent to substantially higher taxes, to bringing more and more dependent voters into the country, to the continuing redistribution of wealth and to a growing acceptance of a police state and being checked at every point.
What I'm hearing and reading is they won't.
JR...how about you research the concept 'high functioning schizophrenic' and consult with a psychiatrist. It is bad enough guys like Max Keiser get a TV show. I like to read comments here and I don't like wading through your garbage.
Why do people spread propaganda? It is fairly obvious that leftists, not some banking cabal, is seizing political power by use of racism and class envy.
...it will pay for investors to continue to consider both sides of the economic argument as we move into 2013.
the hell it will. be long or be wrong. that is all.
Looks like we should be coming out of the recession soon. Maybe Bernanke needs to lower interest rates and lend more.
What a world. What a world. We are doomed and the banksters are lying cheating theives.
Not an original thought but worth repeating: LEI is an anagram.
Please Lord, let me sell my house before the Sheeple awaken.
Why, is real estate going to crash some more? Won't money-printing raise prices of that light-volume equity like it has with stocks?
I believe that we will have a collapse of some form. So, I believe that housing prices will collapse.
If we do have a collapse(again, I believe we will), I think we will experience either a deflationary collapse, or a hyperinflationary boom-bust collapse. Either way, it's a collapse.
Then again maybe we shouldn't worry, the Bernank is on it. He has the perfect exit strategy that he talks about and has kept us updated on a very regular basis --> ZIRP, QE1, QE2, Operation Twist(gold price suppression), QE3... QEInfinity/Eternity/Forever. That IS the exit strategy. So, maybe we won't have a collapse!? Haha.
chart also suggests that a steep drop of 5-6% as in 2002 and others 'signals' recession, but not so in mid 1980's.... & in 1990's about 5% was ok.... About a 3% drop now
But employment was a-BOOMING just a month or two ago. How could this be? I mean, really, are yo saying we are being lied to by our government? Perposterous. Unpatriotic, even. Perhaps you need sopme time picking rice to think this over.
Entering a recession while we are not recovered from the last one will cause this one to hurt much worse.
They called the last one the "Great Recession" I wonder what they will name the coming hell-hole.
No matter which way I look at it, no matter what point I start from, I inevitably come up with the same result. Buy guns, gold, and ground bitchez!!
"Buy guns, gold, and ground bitchez!!"
Why go through all that trouble when it's much easier to just buy a politician,

It's PIPA, Not Pippa! Get It Right, Twitter SOPA Bill Protesters [IMAGES]
There's a lot of talk right now about the Web blackout for PIPA and SOPA. And, of course, some folks are mighty confused. That's where we come in.
There's a lot of talk right now about the Web blackout for PIPA and SOPA. And, of course, some folks are mighty confused. That's where we come in.
Who would've thought that a simple Congressional bill aimed at ending online piracy with the same potential to censor the entire internet community would cause such a mass panic? But that's exactly what's going on, especially with Twitter users.
Cher gets what Cher wants. That cute pup with the terrifying snarl is Miranda Lambert's dog Cher, and she is now the profile picture on the singer's Twitter page. "Cher wanted y'all to know she is pretty so she posed for me for my profile pic," Lambert tweeted on Wednesday before posting the above snapshot.
As you've probably already figured out by the flood of tweets, married superstars Beyonce and Jay-Z (aka Shawn Carter) reportedly gifted the world with a newborn little girl named Blue Ivy Carter. The most poignant of all the tweets so far came from Lisa Lyons: "is it ivy blue, or blue ivy? so confused.."
On New Year's Eve, an 18-year-old Oklahoma mother shot and killed an intruder to protect her 3-month-old baby, after she had just lost her husband to cancer on Christmas day. Now, John Rich of Big and Rich is on a mission to find this young mother and give her some much-needed help.
Justin Moore's trip to Dallas, Texas to watch his Arkansas Razorbacks play in Friday night's Cotton Bowl is off to a contentious start. Last night, he was asked to leave an area restaurant for allegedly hitting on two diners. It's a charge the married father of two vehemently denies.
Instead of chilling out in his native Garner, N.C. for the whole holiday season, Scotty McCreery headed to the Dominican Republic for a bit to personally deliver gift boxes to needy and impoverished children. The selfless singer shared a couple pictures from his trip via Twitter … when he was able to get internet service, that is!
Well wishes for a speedy recovery to the father of Thompson Square's Shawna Thompson, who had surgery this week. Shawna informed fans that he was heading into the hospital the night prior to his surgery, asking them to keep him in mind.
Sunny Sweeney will never forget her wedding anniversary. The 'Drink Myself Single' singer has just inked the date on her bicep. "My new "11″ tattoo," she tweeted yesterday, showing off the still healing, shiny new 'XI' (the Roman numeral for 11).
Lady Antebellum singer Hillary Scott is in love and not just with her fiancée Chis Tyrell. The singer seriously loves her pooch Hobbs and is addicted to tweeting about him. She's not that different from millions of other proud pet owners out there; she just has a bigger audience with which to share photos. Scott constantly posts candid pics of her pooch on Twitter, and each one is cuter than the next. Hobbs is so adorable that we can't stop looking at the shots and we look forward to her sharing more.
If anyone understands exactly how eliminated 'X Factor' contestant Rachel Crow feels about finishing just short of your reality TV singing competition goals, it's Lauren Alaina. A mere six months ago, Alaina heard Scotty McCreery's name announced instead of hers during the 'American Idol' finals. While Crow placed fifth in her competition, she, like Alaina, was an early favorite, loved by fans and judges alike. But she didn't ultimately notch the win.
For Luke Bryan, Thursday night started out so full of promise. "It's my anniversary. Daddy's getting lucky," he tweeted around 8PM ET. A few hours later he was singing the blues, but it wasn't because of anything his wife Caroline did or didn't do.

text: I ordered the Sugino RD2 Messenger crankset off of ebay, in the picture for the add, and along with all the pictures I've seen, it says "Sugino" on the cranks, but the one I received just has the logo (S in a crown). Does anyone know if these are the same cranks, just with a different logo? And why mine just has the logo? Thanks.

Men don't tend to be seasonal shoppers; they stick with what they love and consistently buy in bulk. Where's the fun in that? Here's a look at some Fall 2013 menswear pieces to help them step (gently) out of their comfort zone.
PLAY Comme des Garçons
Cardigan, $410
CLOT x Nike Air Max 1 SP, HK $1,399 (about $180)
If there's one brand that fits into every man's lifestyle, it's Nike. This season, skip the run-of-the-mill and opt for something limited-edition like the CLOT x Nike Air Max 1 SP, which comes packaged in an exclusive box and launches September 7. Only catch: you'll have to be quick to catch them online or find a way to make it to Asia.
Maison Kitsuné
Hooded Sweater, $299
Finding a hoodie that doesn't look sloppy is not any easy task. Luckily, it's one that Maison Kitsuné has perfected.
WANT Les Essentiels de la Vie
O'Hare Tote, $895
This man bag is not only easy to coordinate with most wardrobes, it's a great investment since it's one of the brand's classic silhouettes. It's also super convenient since it has a number of interior pockets, including ones for shoes (no surprise that some women buy this style too).
A classic cashmere V-neck will always be a reliable investment.
Anonymous Ism
Socks, $26
Scared of color or prints? Socks are an easy way to warm up to them.
Gold Hook on Hunter Leather, $80
Man jewelry isn't easy to pull off, but Miansai's handmade, vintage-inspired pieces make it a less daunting endeavor.
Jack Purcell Textured-Leather Sneakers, $95
Any man who can go against the grain and pull off textured white leather Converse in the fall is obviously a winner.
Cape Cod 32, $890
If nothing else, every man needs a great watch and a great belt.

Is it you I keep thinking of?
Should I feel like I do?
I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you
We run 'til it's gone
Et les fleurs du mal
Won't let you be
You hold the key to an open door
Will I ever be free?
Les fleurs du mal unfold
Comme les fleurs du mal
Dark demons of my soul
Un amour fatal
Been tryin' hard to fight
Comme les fleurs du mal
Les fleurs du mal inside
Un amour fatal
All my life I've been waiting for
In this perfume of pain
To forget when I needed more
Of love's endless refrain
We live and we pray
Pour les fleurs du mal
I've lost my way
What is done will return again
Will I ever be free?
Les fleurs du mal
Comme les fleurs du mal
Un amour fatal
Comme les fleurs du mal

If you are in North America or Western Europe and look around, on any particular day, you will find most people wearing pants. But why is it the standard item of clothing for people, especially men belonging to the Western civilization. Why not a kilt, a robe, a tunic, a sarong, or a toga?
I asked this question here two days ago and got a variety of replies. As you will see, my preferred explanation will use several of the reasons people brought up. However, the most common theme in the discussion was utility or convenience. Here's where I disagree: comfort provides (at most) 10 percent of the explanation. Just think of that ridiculous contraption, the tie, that you have to wear if you want to be elected to public office, or to become CEO. No, the much more important factors are the social ones: conforming to social norms and signaling social identity or status.

Well, that was something...
that movie was interesting, I'm not saying the artistry was bad, it wasn't, i'm saying your skills could be put to better use. Like a better movie!
Do try harder next time.
I was expecting some kind of blam parody. Guess I got disapointed. However, I still found this quite funny, the guy that goes killing everyone for not obvious reason at all (random movie)... I don't know why, but this flash somehow reminded me of the stuff done by Piconjo (minus the pen0r part, of course). 2/5
Low quality movie with no fun AT ALL!
Well first of all i think it was boring, because nearly nothing was happening in it!
It was low gfx, and i could nearly see nothing of what was happening! Well i wont recommend it!!
The best was the violence... if it had some better gfx it would increase the overall score a lot! Many ppl, i think, would like to watch violent movies... therefore it could had been good... if the gfx was better...
P.S. "Crappy Flash Movie" is an exelent title!
This is awsome. THE GUY THAT POSTED STOLE IT BTW.
What is NG coming to?
What is NG coming to? I mean seriously, I bet a flash with the plot of some poorly drawn, near stick-figure crashing a car into a hospital then randomly and wantonly killing the sick and the nurses would get over a three. I mean heck, I bet you wouldn't even need color. The great thing about it is, you MIGHT even be able to pass it off as some sort of sick and twisted comical tribute by tossing some slapstick music in the background.
But it's not like this would actually happen. It's not as if there is some flash artist who is sick, deranged, or just flat out morbid enough to... Oh... Wait...
Look dude, your technical aspects, though simple, were crisp and clear enough, it just so happens that your content consisted of nothing but pointless, meaningless, violence. No art, no story, no poetry, little creativity... Just... Violence... You therefore leave me no choice then but to judge your work on that basis... Which I have.
P.S. You obviously have skill, just, see if you can deliver something more artful.

My Fear Destroyed!
Friday, May 03, 2013
I have had a fear for over 20 years and I finally destroyed that fear. Yes, it took me 20 years to beat the fear, but the point is, I beat it and I am proud of myself for having destroyed that fear, which literally disabled me during that time.
When I say disabled, I mean I could not, literally, could not venture into a dentist office without getting physically sick. I know, because I tried it once.
So here is my fear. I was terrified of the dental hygienist. Not the dentist. I had no problem with the dentist, but that hygienist was my absolute terror. And it wasn�t the tools welded by the hygienist, it was her lack of hygiene. How could a hygienist be so lax in hygiene?
Here�s my story. I made an appointment at my favorite dentist�s office, signed in and sat down where I could watch the beautiful tropical fish swim around in the wall sized tank. I loved watching them swim around and through the various �ruins� in the bottom of the tank and marveled at how clean the tank always was.
The hygienist came out and called my name and I noticed she had gloves on, a clipboard in one hand, a pen between her teeth, and her hand was on the door jamb as though she was so tired she needed the wall to hold herself up. When she took her hand off the door jamb, I noticed the worn or filthy spot where her hand had been and wondered how long she had been suffering from this fatigue syndrome.
We walked down the hall, she stopped me at the place where she proceeded to do a �bite-wing x-ray� and then into her cubical for the usual poking and cleaning. I had never been afraid of this part before.
As I sat down, I noticed she reached up and opened the blinds to look out at the world for a few moments, then she closed them. All the while with the same gloves on and the pen between her teeth.
Then she adjusted the chair, the lamp, and opened and closed every drawer beside her, took the pen from her teeth, wrote something on the clipboard, put the �bib� on me, and said, �Open wide, please.�
I said, �Wait! Could you please change your gloves. I�ve seen where those have been and I don�t want them in my mouth.�
She heaved a very heavy sigh, designed to make me aware of her disgust with me, and she opened a drawer and slammed it shut and put another pair of gloves on over the first and I remember wondering if they were new or just used ones she'd salvaged.
No hand washing, just one pair of dubious gloves on over the first pair of soiled ones.
This was at the height of awareness of HIV issues and I was one of the uneducated people that knew nothing about HIV except that you could get it by the disease finding its way into your system by contact as in your mouth or other orifices.
Now my fear is more heightened and I�m wondering why she is being so �dirty.� I am now acutely watching her every move.
Her assistant comes in, sits down and leans on the �back� of the chair but does nothing besides twist back and forth in the chair, like a pendulum on a clock.
So now she reaches up and readjusts the light and I said, �Now your touching the light.�
She said with an exasperated attitude, �It has a cover on it. It was cleaned last night and covered with a plastic sleeve. Now open wide.�
I ripped the bib off, wiggled off the chair as she was too shocked to move, and once I was standing I said, �I can�t sit here and let you poke around in my mouth with your attitude and lack of hygiene.
�Everything in here is filthy and you�ve touched everything already with dirty gloves and your writing with a pen that you constantly hold between your teeth. I don�t know your medical history and I don�t want to know but I don�t want your germs in my mouth. I�m not paying for this cleaning, I won�t let you touch my mouth, I won�t be back.�
I left that office and never went back, partly because I knew someone would remember that I had left without paying and I didn�t want the fight, but mainly because I could not force myself to go to a hygienist.
Twenty years without going to the dentist was starting to take its toll on my mouth and mind. I feared the number of cavities hiding under the plaqie, my teeth were yellow, and the bottom front ones were buried in plaque. So I called a new dentist�s office and asked for an appointment to see the hygienist, but it was for a consult not an exam. I told the person answering the phone that I was terrified of the hygienist and needed to talk. They set me up with their best.
So I do the required stuff of going early, giving over my insurance, filling out the paperwork and then waiting. I am her first of the day, which made me feel good at least in that area.
She comes out, no gloves on, no clipboard, no pen in sight. She smiles and introduces herself and we go back to her �office,� a room of her own, not a cubical shared with anyone else.
I sit in the chair and she leans against the cupboard. She asked a few questions and then I said, �May I tell you my experience and why I am so terrified that I haven�t been able to force myself into a dentist office for over 20 years?�
�Yes, please,� she said. I gave her the details of my fear and I thought she was going to vomit. She was disgusted, mortified, apologetic, and angry. All at the same time. She vowed to eliminate my fear and change my feelings for dentistry.
She did. The first thing she did was turn around and wash her hands like a surgeon, brush, soap, nearly to her elbows, then she dried them on a paper towel that was thrown into the trash and she pulled a pair of new gloves from a box in a clear holder from the wall. You had to know those were new sterile gloves.
I never feared once from her. She had my teeth probed and on report to an assistant that actually did something. She touched nothing after she put the gloves on, except her sterile tools and my mouth. He put all the information she gave him into a computer which had a huge flat screen on the wall that I could see. Then he left and she proceeded to clean my teeth. None of this caused pain and it surprised me because I figured she�d need a jackhammer to get the plaque off alone, and would probably take some of my tooth porcelain with the plaque. I had no idea what was under there.
My teeth are white, mostly, they are unburied and then the dentist came in, checked out what I had against her work and pronounced me and my teeth in good condition. They are old teeth. Well, I�m not young so yes, my teeth are old, but they were in good shape.
So now I have no fear of the hygienist and I�m back on the road of healthy teeth and being able to feel the back of my teeth without the plaque. Now I brush my teeth and floss them almost after every meal. No I am not perfect, but I am working on it and I feel good about myself and my teeth.
If you have a fear of something, figure out why and then attack that fear until you destroy it. It feels so much better being fearless than having it hang over you making you helpless. I know. I�ve been there.
I wish you lots of strength and I hope you destroy your fears quickly.

Wow! What an experience! I would have bolted out of that room too! That hygienist is a prime example of everything they shouldn't do. And the new one is great! What a difference! I am so glad you were able to overcome your fear and try another office.

I'm with your new hygienist. As a nurse I almost vomited too. The filthy woman should have been reported. It was disgusting and thank goodness you found a decent dentist now.

Wow, I'm glad you finally got through that. The folks in my dentist office go through so many gloves during a session I always wonder how much they actually spend on them and the also put fresh tape over all the permanent tools and the light handle for each patient. Cleanliness is sooo important! You also must have great genes to have such healthy teeth. Mine are not that way.

TDK Life On Record 2-Speaker Boombox Audio System $99.00+ $3.99 shipping ($160 on Amazon)
Score +7
Thread Details
Retail Price: $399.99
Sale price: $99.00 +$3.99 shipping +100 Swag Bucks (I don't care for SB but some peeps are mad in to it)
Many of the reviews mention the weight of this unit as a negative attribute, even saying that the unit is not truly "portable". I wonder if these people have ever owned true high-powered, quality speakers. This boombox is SO loud and sounds SO good, I'm suprised it doesn't weigh twice as much. If I had wanted a light radio with tinny, empty sound, they could be found for hundreds less in any discount pharmacy store. For those that claim you can't take this thing to the beach, poolside etc., I would recommend vitamin supplements. Not only is it easy to carry, you WILL be the envy of wherever you bring it.
I bought this as a gift for my wife. I considered a BOSE or CAMBRIDGE tabletop unit, but decided I would opt for something she could take poolside or on weekends to our small cabin. This radio looks gorgeous on granite kitchen counters, wooden bookcases, on top of the piano, on a desk, anywhere. Pre 1970, radios were made to look like furniture that would fit virtually any decor. Once things started going solid-state, manufacturers tried to make everything look "futuristic". Most modern radios are loaded with silver plastic, faux chrome, and redundant or decorative knobs, speaker grills and the like. Why on earth would I ever want to have something like that on display? This thing is a throwback (think Tivoli model 1).
Sound is exemplary. SO loud and CLEAN. I've tried it with a thumbdrive, iPod, and FM tuner. All great. No hop from the woofers, no clip from the tweeters. It sounds as good as any BOSE, without needing the counter space for the circuitous porting.
With its leather strap, minimalist style, hidden function indicators, and outrageous sound, I consider this to be the best dollar-for-dollar value in the portable audio market.
I would also second the advice to turn the volume on your iPod to zero, and turn off the iPod EQ.
I couldnt be more pleased.

Rechargeable battery for up to 6 hours of portable playback. But thinking about the price, I would rather buy some AA-D5 adapters to utilize my Eneloop batteries.

text: 000 FXUS64 KLUB 251125 AAA AFDLUB Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Lubbock TX 625 AM CDT WED MAY 25 2016 .AVIATION... VFR conditions in place at both KCDS and KPVW, however KLBB is already starting to see rapid low cloud and fog development. Ceilings are bouncing around in the 700 to 1200 foot range and Gaines County Airport is down into MVFR range visibility wise. Expect to see MVFR conditions in place right at or shortly before the 12Z taf issuance goes into effect. Whether or not low clouds or fog can develop to near Plainview remains highly uncertain and KCDS should remain clear. Any low clouds and fog will take a while to burn off but expect to VFR conditions to return by mid-day today. Then...VFR conditions expected to remain in place until about the same time tomorrow. Jordan && .PREV DISCUSSION... /issued 331 AM CDT WED MAY 25 2016/ SHORT TERM... The dryline has once again sloshed back west early this morning and was roughly located along a Tatum, NM to Tulia, TX line and was continuing to slowly mix westward through the first part of our graveyard shift. Aloft, 00 UTC Upper-Air analysis shows that we remain near a strong subtropical jet with 100 knot winds at 250 hPa. A closed low was initialized well in the 00 UTC models compared to the hand analysis location, with both showing a closed low over the west central California Coast. Water vapor satellite imagery shows the forecast area being on the northern side of a mid-level moisture stream associated with the subtropical jet and the 850 hPa analysis shows the best moisture plume has shifted east across North Texas with a pretty significant dry punch shown on the Midland sounding. With the thermal ridge located over the area yesterday, the forecast area was pretty much shut down for convection save one storm up in the northeastern part of the forecast area. The models once again keep the thermal ridge at 850 hPa centered over the area although temperatures are forecast to be about 2-4 degrees cooler than compared to yesterday at the same time. Winds aloft are also forecast to remain out of the southwest on the Caprock which should allow the dryline to once again mix east fairly rapidly through the day and stall out along or just east of the edge of the Caprock. Even with weak diffluence flow at the jet level, very little in the way of synoptic-scale lift will be present over the area and model soundings for the area around Childress show that strong subsidence will take place in the mid levels of the atmosphere. Models keep a small sliver of SBCAPE values around 2000 J/kg near Childress down to Aspermont but subsidence and fairly deep mixing should keep convection at bay again this afternoon. Have opted to keep rain chances out of the forecast for today and tonight even though the GFS is hinting at a weak shortwave trying to initiate convection over the Trans-Pecos and slide it northeast into the southern Rolling Plains overnight into early Thursday morning. Only other forecast challenge will be high temperatures today. With the dryline pushing east and deep mixing taking place, we could see some of the warmest temperatures since the first part of May. Subsidence indicated in the models and a dry airmass on the Caprock should help to bump highs into the mid to upper 90s for the southern Rolling Plains. Temperatures in the Rolling Plains will be tricky as the dryline position will help or hurt temperatures from warming up depending on how much moisture remains east of the dryline zone. There could also be a bit of compressional/downslope warming along/behind the dryline respectively giving a boost to temperatures. Highs today in the Rolling Plains are also forecast to be in the mid to upper 90s with the warmest temps in the southern Rolling Plains. Low temperatures Thursday morning will be on the mild side once again as the dryline sloshes back west and low-level moisture helps to keep temps up. Low clouds may also try to develop as the low-level jet sets up across the eastern half of the forecast area but how far west any low clouds can develop remains highly uncertain. LONG TERM... The upper low now approaching the southern California coast is on track to translate across the Four Corners tomorrow before emerging over the central High Plains Friday. Southwesterly flow aloft will gradually back and strengthen on Thursday as the low approaches while surface cyclogenesis occurs across southeast Colorado. An attendant dryline trailing southward will likely be the focus for robust convective development Thursday afternoon, though an early day subtropical disturbance passing to our south through the central part of the state could provide a period of subsidence and limit storm coverage. The question then becomes where will the dryline will reside by late afternoon? The latest NAM and GFS now favor a more eastern solution near or just east of our eastern CWA boundary as dry and gusty southwesterly winds overspread most of the FA. This could happen, but with decent pressure falls to our northwest it would not be surprising if the dryline were to hold a little further west than currently progged (as has been the case with the dryline the past couple of afternoons). Given this we have maintained low storm chances roughly east of a Memphis to Spur to Lake Alan Henry line Thursday afternoon. If storms can form along/east of the dryline, strong instability and good deep layer shear would definitely support storm organization and a severe weather threat. Storms chances should briefly expand back westward toward or even up onto the Caprock Thursday evening/night as the dryline retreats before it encounters a Pacific front and increasing upper support. Breezy and dry west-southwesterly winds will then quickly spread across the South Plains early Friday with the better storm chances quickly shifting into the Rolling Plains and then points east. However, as the upper low passes by to the north we will have to watch and see if a little high-based convection developing across northeast New Mexico can make a run toward the western Texas Panhandle within developing northwest flow aloft. Current mixed signals in the NWP combined with the very deep and dry sub-cloud that will be present do not warrant more than about 10 percent PoPs ATTM. Weak shortwave ridging aloft will follow on Saturday and with the deeper moisture likely relegated to our south and east West Texas should experience a warm and dry day. The pattern is then forecast to quickly transition back toward an unsettled one as low-level moisture rapidly returns Saturday night and the western trough reloads and provides periodic disturbances within renewed southwest flow aloft. This will set the stage for improving shower and thunderstorm chances from Sunday through the middle part of next week. Relatively modest mid-upper level flow may tend to limit storm organization through much of this stretch, but fairly strong instability will likely still support some severe storms during the afternoon and evening hours, while the weaker steering motion and good moisture levels could lead to locally heavy rainfall. Regarding temperatures, gusty downsloping winds (sustained at 15-30 mph) will help provide a warm Thursday with highs several degrees above average. The UA trough passage will bring slight cooling to close out the week before a quick jump back above average to start the holiday weekend. Cooler temperatures will follow through much of the remainder of the extended as increased cloud cover and rain chances temper readings back toward or even a little below average. && .LUB Watches/Warnings/Advisories...

Pharmacology, Interactions, and Contraindications
Mechanism of Action
Disulfiram blocks the oxidation of alcohol at the acetaldehyde stage during alcohol metabolism following disulfiram intake causing an accumulation of acetaldehyde in the blood producing highly unpleasant symptoms. Disulfiram blocks the oxidation of alcohol through its irreversible inactivation of aldehyde dehydrogenase, which acts in the second step of ethanol utilization. In addition, disulfiram competitively binds and inhibits the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor, which may indicate some value in the treatment of the symptoms of alcohol withdrawal, however this activity has not been extensively studied.
Source: Drug Bank
Disulfiram produces a sensitivity to alcohol which results in a highly unpleasant reaction when the patient under treatment ingests even small amounts of alcohol. Disulfiram blocks the oxidation of alcohol at the acetaldehyde stage during alcohol metabolism following disulfiram intake, the concentration of acetaldehyde occurring in the blood may be 5 to 10 times higher than that found during metabolism of the same amount of alcohol alone. Accumulation of acetaldehyde in the blood produces a complex of highly unpleasant symptoms referred to hereinafter as the disulfiram-alcohol reaction. This reaction, which is proportional to the dosage of both disulfiram and alcohol, will persist as long as alcohol is being metabolized. Disulfiram does not appear to influence the rate of alcohol elimination from the body. Prolonged administration of disulfiram does not produce tolerance; the longer a patient remains on therapy, the more exquisitely sensitive he becomes to alcohol.

Food Interaction
Avoid alcohol for up to 14 days after treatment has been stopped.|Take without regard to meals.

Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Elimination & Toxicity
Disulfiram is absorbed slowly from the gastrointestinal tract (80 to 90% of oral dose).

Free Pre-Performance Talk, 6:45 - 7:15 p.m., Weis Center Lobby
Aaron Diehl seeks to stand out in his era as an artist to exemplify quality, authenticity, and a fluency in the American musical vernacular. The 2011 Cole Porter Fellow of the American Pianists Association, Diehl has been hailed by the New York Times as "a smart young pianist with a fastidious grasp of jazz traditions." He is committed to unearthing the treasures of a rich musical language through collaborative efforts with artists across generations. In 2002, Diehl was a finalist in Jazz at Lincoln Center's Essentially Ellington competition, where he was awarded "Outstanding Soloist." The following year, he was invited to tour with the Wynton Marsalis Septet on their European tour. A 2007 graduate of the Juilliard School, he is also a Martin E. Segal Award recipient. Diehl released his first live album in 2008, a solo concert recorded at the Caramoor Festival. In 2010, Live at the Players featured two of his working trios. His latest release, The Bespoke Man's Narrative is the current product of Diehl's ensemble cultivation, influenced partly by John Lewis and the Modern Jazz Quartet. He is the 2013 Jazz Journalist Association's Up-And-Coming Musician of the Year Award recipient.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, as Paul Levy writes on his Not Running A Hospital blog, is a surgery to remove a gall bladder using laparoscopic instruments through holes in the abdomen instead of cutting it open. Lap choles, for short.
"So, what do you do if you are a robotic surgery device company that has saturated the marketplace for robot-assisted prostate surgery…?
Answer: You try to create a demand for robot lap choles. You drool as you read:
In 2008, 750,000 patients underwent cholecystectomy in the United States; in 90% of these patients, the operation was done laparoscopically.
This is huge compared even to the 90,000 radical prostatectomies that are undertaken each year, where you have grabbed 70,000 of the total.
Just imagine if we could get doctors and hospitals to buy our robot to do a portion of those."
Levy then links to a couple of YouTube videos that were posted by different hospitals. One, he writes, was of a doctor and a patient making "unsupported assertions about the relative benefits compared to the excellent safety record of traditional lap choles."
About a year ago, we posted, "Major-market TV news glorification of scarless robotic surgery," which was about the first single-site, single-incision gallbladder removal done by a community hospital in state of California.
The Skeptical Scalpel has written about "no proof" that robotic cholecystectomy is better than regular laparoscopic surgery.
And, regarding a different robotic surgery use,MedPage Today reports, "Robotics No Help in Cystectomy."
"A randomized trial comparing robotic with open cystectomy ended early after an interim analysis showed the minimally invasive approach did not reduce complications, according to a study reported (at the American Urological Association meeting in San Diego this week).
(The researcher said:) "This study demonstrates that well-designed randomized, controlled trials of new surgical technologies are possible and should be strongly encouraged to better answer important clinical questions."
In recent years, use of robotic radical cystectomy has increased as surgeons attempt to reduce complications and morbidity. Whether robotic assistance has accomplished that goal has yet to be determined."

These pancakes are heavenly, and it's all thanks to the syrup! As soon as I smelled the aroma of the amaretto wafting through the kitchen, I knew I was in for a treat. I made the pancakes using "soy buttermilk" and used McIntosh apples in the syrup because I had a lot on hand. My mom and I had this for dinner tonight, and we both loved it. We felt like we were in a trendy restaurant. I can't wait to try the syrup on other things as well. Thanks for another keeper, Rita!
My faimily enjoyed these pancakes so much that my DD took the recipe home with her so she could make them for her DH and kids. These will be my Easter breakfast specialty this year!
We really enjoyed the topping on these. Because DH is diabetic I made some changes. I made seperate syrups, one with sugar free, one with regular. For his I added a little melted butter and the rest in a tiny casserole pot, and for mine I followed the recipe after adding it to the nut pan, and after cooking it a bit I put it in another tiny casserole becuase I had cut back on the quantity using about 1/4 cup syrup each at most and it was cooking down too fast. I 'm thinking my quantity of Amaretto was higher then the recipes - I just poured: ) I sauted the apples seperately with butter, spices and more Amaretto and a little water. This allowed both of us to enjoy them with our syrups, and I know for me if I had cooked the apples in the syrup it might have been too sweet. We both like that the syrup was sweet with out being edgy - sicky sweet, I don't know if it's the butter or liquor that mellows it, but it's delish! We found the cake part of the pancakes to be a bit dry and rather bland, so I added a little extra sugar, more spice along with some nutmeg and vanilla, this helped except for the dryness, I think a little more butter in the batter would help or maybe grating the apples instead of dicing. This half recipe made at least 3 servings of pancakes but just 2 on the apples, so I would increase them a little. Thanks for sharing Rita, we'll be making these again! Made by one of the Unrulies Under the Influence for ZWT6
Divine! Next to the coconut pancakes at a Hawaiian coffee shop, these are the best pancakes I've ever tasted. Half a recipe made 9 four or five inch pancakes. I ladled the syrup on top of each pancake as in a Napolean. These are company good. Thanks, Rita. You are some cook.
"Heavenly" is a GREAT description for this recipe--especially the syrup! I made exactly as called for (except I didn't use enough apples in the syrup--bummer)and there were many satisfied "mmm's" and "ahhhh's" emanating from smiling faces around the breakfast table. I also heard, "Mom, you should make this again!" Definitely a keeper! This would also be a great syrup to use for one of those overnight French toast breakfast casseroles. Made for *Photo Swap January 2008"
Oh, yum. I was in heaven. What a wonderful start to my day. I even splurged and used real maple syrup. Served with real whipped cream on the side as well as scrambled eggs and bacon that my Uncle himself cured. Zaar World Tour 05

Fountain Powerboat Industries is no longer being traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
The Beaufort County boat manufacturer was notified last month that it faced delisting from the Stock Exchange because of problems with its financial health.
Fountain announced today that it's common stock began trading Monday on Pink Sheets, under the new symbol FPWB. Companies that trade on Pink Sheets not required to meet minimum requirements or file with the SEC.
Previous Story
It looks like a Beaufort County boat builder will be removed from the New York Stock Exchange as early as next week.
Fountain Powerboat Industries has until Monday to appeal a staff decision that it be delisted from the Stock Exchange and that trading of its stock be immediately suspended. Fountain's board of directors says the company will not appeal because it doesn't think with the current economic conditions it cannot regain compliance with the stock exchange in the near future.
Fountain President Reggie Fountain is optimistic heading into the future. Fountain says, "We are a much more lean company than we were before and if the economy comes back just a little and as it traditionally does this time of year in March and April we'll be able to get through it."
Last June Fountain was notified that it was in danger of being delisted. The Stock Exchange said the company had sustained substantial loses and that it appeared questionable whether the company would be able to continue operations. It said it was also concerned that Fountain had lost money in two of the past three years.
After it is delisted, Fountain's common stock will be quoted in the Pink Sheets under a new trading symbol.

A Tale of Two Future Bridges: New Bike/Ped Crossing on L.A. River, Fewer Sidewalks on Glendale-Hyperion
It was sort of a surreal moment. Even as Los Angeles City Councilmember Mitch O'Farrell stood at the podium discussing the benefits of a planned new bicycle and pedestrian crossing over the L.A. River, the Bureau of Public Works released its recommendation (PDF) that the new Glendale-Hyperion Bridge would actually have fewer feet devoted to safe sidewalks than the current bridge.
What was supposed to be a light press conference announcing the opening of a permanent bridge project using existing support structures from an old Red Car bridge across the L.A. River turned somewhat sour for many of the community and traffic safety advocates in attendance when the Bureau announced their plans for the bridge on their website. News traveled quickly among the crowd, and the reporters present suddenly found themselves with dozens of sources for a meatier story than a made-for-bike-week announcement of new infrastructure.
In the fall of 2013, news broke that when the Glendale-Hyperion complex of bridges that connect Atwater Village and Silver Lake would be retrofitted to make them earthquake-proof, local advocates immediately noticed problems with the new design on the street portion of the bridge. Despite appearing on the city's bicycle plan, the road redesign called for widening the existing car lanes, installing "crash barriers" in the middle of the bridge, removing a sidewalk, and adding no bike lanes.
After an explosion of public comment and a community forum which turned into a Livable Streets rally, O'Farrell, announced a citizen's advisory committee would be formed. The Mayor's office submitted a request for an extension to the grant. The old timeline would have precluded any major changes to the proposed road design.
Earlier today, the Bureau of Engineering released its analysis of four different designs for the new bridge, concluding that to make space for a pair of bike lanes on the new bridge, the best option was to take out one of the two sidewalks.
At the podium this morning, O'Farrell painted as rosy a picture as possible, discussing the importance of river crossings for all mode users and some of the improvements the new Hyperion Bridge will have over the existing one, including marked crosswalks and bicycle lanes. He even struck a populist tone, declaring his support for "protected bicycle lanes" on Hyperion and across the city.
But that wasn't enough for many of the safety advocates in the audience. A press release from L.A. Walks noted that any bicyclist or pedestrian on Glendale Boulevard wanting to cross the river on the "Red Car Bridge" would need to travel twelve minutes out of their way–and are thus far more likely to use the limited sidewalk or just walk on the shoulder even without a sidewalk.
"The City of Los Angeles promotes the fact that we have moved past our auto-centric history and want to be 'A Safe City,' as it states in the Mayor's Great Streets for Los Angeles Strategic Plan," says Deborah Murphy. "We cannot achieve this goal if we can't provide the most basic of provisions for pedestrians–a simple sidewalk on both sides of the bridge." Read more…

We'll drink a drink a drink
To Lily the pink the pink the pink
The savior of the human race.
She invented medicinal compounds.
Most efficacious in every case.
Now here's a story
A little bit gory
A little bit happy
A little bit sad
Of Lily the pink and
Her medicinal compounds.
And how it drove her to the bad.
Ol' Ebenezer
Thought he was Julius Ceasar
So they put him in the home.
There they gave him medicinal compound,
Now he's Emperor of Rome.
Freddy Klinger.
The opera singer
Could break a glass with his voice
'Tis said.
Rubbed his tonsils
With medicinal compounds
Now they break glasses over his head.
Johnny Hammer
Had a t-t-terrible stammer.
He could hardly s-s-say a word.
So they g-g-gave him
Medicinal compounds.
Now he's s-s-seen
But never heard.
Uncle Paul, he
Was very small, he
Was the shortest man in town.
Rubbed his body
With medicinal compounds.
Now he weighs only half a pound.
Lily died and
Went up to heaven.
All the church bells
They did ring.
She took with her
Medicinal compounds.
Hark the herald angels sing.
