Mystery Buyer Of US Treasurys RevealedSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 09/08/2015 18:15 -0400
While we already knew that China was selling - and following the record selling of FX reserves in August, so does everyone else - an even more interesting question emerged: who is buying? Thanks to the WSJ we now know the answer: "A little-known New York hedge fund run by a former Yale University math whiz has been buying tens of billions of dollars of U.S. Treasury debt at recent auctions, drawing attention from the Treasury Department and Wall Street."

"Central bank distortions have forced investors into positions they would not have held otherwise, and forced them to be the 'same way round' to a much greater extent than previously... unless fundamentals move so as to justify current valuations, when central banks move towards the exit, investors will too.... The way out may not prove so easy; indeed, we are not sure there is any way out at all."
Citadel Head Bond Trader (And TBAC Member) "Leaves" After Losing $1 BillionSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 04/16/2015 12:44 -0400
It is almost too coincidental to be a coincidence: on the day Ben Bernanke, who until a year ago was the biggest fixed income portfolio manager in the world courtesy of the Fed's $4.5 trillion in assets, joins Citadel as an advisor, the massively levered "market-neutral" hedge fund which as we showed earlier has $176 billion in regulatory assets, "loses" its global head of fixed income, senior managing director Derek Kaufman. Well not exactly loses. The reason for his "voluntary" departure: according to Bloomberg Kaufman is leaving Citadel not because he is about to be replaced by the former Fed chairman but because last year he lost $1 billion "in a variety of trades."

"If liquidity is as bad as it is now, what's going to happen when things really get adverse?" said Richard Schlanger, who co-manages about $30 billion in bonds as vice president at Pioneer Investments in Boston.

6 Months Before The Fed Is Said To Hike Rates, It Still Has No Idea How It Will Do ThatSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/20/2014 14:00 -0400
Tt has become quite clear that the Fed neither has the intention, nor the market mechanism to do any of that, and certainly not in a 3-6 month timeframe. Which may explain the Fed's hawkish words on any potential surge in market vol. After all, if the nearly $3 trillion in excess reserves remain on bank balance sheets for another year, then the only reason why vol could surge is if the Fed lose the faith of the markets terminally. At that point the last worry anyone will have is whether and how the Fed will tighten monetary policy.

And then there is BusinessWeek, which quite to the contrary, is urging its readers in its cover story, ignore common sense, and do more of the same that has led the world to dead economic end it finds itself in currently. In fact, it is, in the words of NYT's Binyamin Appelbaum, calling the world governments to become the slaves of a defunct economist. And spend, spend, spend, preferably on credit. Because, supposedly, this time the resulting crash from yet another debt-funded binge will be... different?
Monetary Policy And Impact On AssetsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 10/11/2014 12:04 -0400
The last note briefly addressed the benefits associated with the reverse repurchase facility (RRF). Indeed liabilities have increasingly moved from bank balance sheets to the Fed, freeing lending capacity. One must recall reserves are not fungible outside of the banking system (but can act as collateral for margin). With flow decreasing, the opportunity for small relative volume bids spread over a large quantity of transactions (most instances per unit time) decreased with market prices in many asset markets. Is more downside coming?
The Loudest Warning Yet: "This Stage Should Lead To Increased Risk... System Less Able To Deal With Such Episodes"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 08/06/2014 11:29 -0400
"Suppression of yield and vol induces investors to take on more risk (QE III). The market clings to perception of certainty regarding outcomes, despite the Fed shifting commitment modes from time or level-based to data dependent. This stage of policy should eventually lead to increased uncertainty and risk." Translation: the TBAC itself - i.e., America's largest banks - whose summary assessment this is, is now actively derisiking.
Is This The Reason For The Relentless Treasury Bid?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/05/2014 12:10 -0400
Over the weekend, Bloomberg had an interesting piece about two of the main reasons why while stocks continue to rise to new all time highs, the expected selling in bonds - because in a normal world, what is good for stocks should be bad for bonds - isn't materializing, and instead earlier this morning the 10 Year tumbled to the lowest since February, while last week the 30 Year retraced 50% of its post-Taper Tantrum slide, or in short a complete disconnect between stocks and bonds.

Buying Time In A Brought-Forward World... And Why There Is No Plan BSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/03/2013 19:45 -0400
Here we go again, creating another asset bubble for the third time in a decade and a half, is how Monument Securities' Paul Mylchreest begins his latest must-read Thunder Road report. As Eckhard Tolle once wrote, "the primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it," and that seems apt right now. After Lehman, policy makers went "all-in" on bailouts/ZIRP/QE etc. This avoided an "all-out" collapse and bought time in which a self-sustaining recovery could materialize. The Fed's tapering threat showed that, five years on from Lehman, the recovery was still not self-sustaining. Mylchreest's study of long-wave (Kondratieff) cycles, however, leaves us concerned as to whether it ever will be. More commentators are having doubts; and the problem looming into view is that we might need a new "plan." The (rhetorical) question then is "Have we really got to the point where it's just about more and more QE, corralling more and more flow into the equity market until it becomes (unsustainably) 'top-heavy'?"

"We see upside surprise risks on gold and silver in the years ahead," is how UBS commodity strategy team begins a deep dive into a multi-factor valuation perspective of the precious metals. The key to their expectation, intriguingly, that new regulation will put substantial pressure on banks to deleverage – raising the onus on the Fed to reflate much harder in 2014 than markets are pricing in. In this view UBS commodity team is also more cautious on US macro...

US Treasury Finally Admits The Truth: It's All POMOSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/13/2013 18:15 -0400
Back in 2010, when few still dared to question that the entire move in the market is predicated on the Fed's daily POMO (then still on QE2), we laid out, in a way so easy even a caveman could grasp it, how every tiny move in the stock market is nothing but a function of the Fed's daily POMO on those days in which Bernanke would be directly injecting liquidity into the capital markets using his Primary Dealer frontmen. Since then nearly three years have passed, and thousands of POMO days. All of which brings us to this quarter's Treasury refunding presentation, and specifically the section "Effects of policy and market structure" from the Presentation to the Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee, in which we learn that we had in fact been right all along, and that perhaps for the first time ever, the Treasury admitted that not only "no one dares fight the Fed" but that, as expected, it is "all POMO."

I think the point they tried to make in the last episode was that it wasn't energy-bending, but bloodbending. Since Noatak (don't know if that's spelled right) thought the avatar was the most powerful, it makes sense that he'd do his best to try and "recreate" the most powerful form of bending (in his eyes). However, he must of not been able to find a teacher so he used bloodbending to do the job. I think he closed the physical, biological part of the brain that allows bending, but not the spiritual side like Aang did (which is why Korra could airbend, the most spiritually connected of the elements) This is also why I think it could be reversed unlike true energybending.

Baeza Vacation Packages
Baeza is situated about 170 miles (274 kilometers) south of Madrid, the national capital, and approximately 65 miles (105 kilometers) north of Granada.
The Plaza de Los Leones and Baeza Cathedral are just some of the attractions to do and see in Baeza.
To discover why so may vacationers go for Andalucia as a place to spend their vacation time, ensure you and your family spend a while longer in the wider region. For more ways to enjoy the region, head to the San Pablo Church and Plaza de Toros in the vicinity of Ubeda, which lays 5 miles (8 kilometers) to the west of Baeza.
Around 55 miles (89 kilometers) to the southwest of Baeza is Priego de Cordoba, a regional center where you can visit Priego de Cordoba Castle, Carnicerias Reales and Neptune's Fountain. The Church of La Asuncion and House Museum of Niceto Alcala are also well-worth a visit while you are here.
For a glimpse of local culture, make a beeline for Andalucia's art museums, history museums and art galleries. This region has been blessed with a fascinating religious life; learn more about is at the area's most sacred monasteries.
If you love to get wet, this is a great place for you. Boating is a common pastime and another great outdoor sport is sea kayaking. This region offers a range of relaxing pastimes. Spend the day bird watching or shore fishing and feel your worries drift away.
You will be sad to say "Adiós" (farewell) to this special spot.

Sen. Tom Coburn's statistic adds to Obamacare confusion
In recent town hall meetings, as well as in an interview with The Oklahoman's editorial board, Sen. Tom Coburn. R-Muskogee, fervently claims that health care premiums will double next year due to the Affordable Care Act, known more widely as Obamacare. If true, everyone with health insurance should be hysterical.
However, in "Troubles keep coming from federal health law" (Our Views, April 10), you reference a report from the Society of Actuaries that says due to the ACA "underlying claim costs in Oklahoma's individual health market will increase 29.3 percent by 2017," which is four years from now. This number translates into an average annual upward movement of about 7.9 percent. Therefore, if Coburn is correct in his allegation, obviously the insurance companies are going to enjoy an enormous windfall. However if he's wrong, his unsubstantiated assertion only adds to the paranoia he claims to encounter as he holds public meetings with rightfully concerned Oklahomans.
Coburn has earned an enormous amount of trust from Oklahomans. He should use it more judiciously. By simply expressing an unfounded statistic he does nothing except add to the confusion, fear, anger and paranoia felt by his fellow citizens.

Hobson, a Democrat, spent 28 years in the Legislature and was Senate president pro tem from 2003 to 2005.

USU athletics: Dale Mildenberger retires after 38 years at Utah State University
When Dale Mildenberger first set foot on the campus of Utah State University in 1975, he did so very reluctantly, sure it was just a job to get him started. Now, 38 years later with numerous accolades, including his name on the wall of the Dale Mildenberger Sports Medicine Complex, he leaves Utah State having dedicated his career to the care and well being of countless student-athletes.
When you talk about leaving a legacy, you think of people who have completely devoted themselves to their career and their community. Though he may hate to admit it, Mildenberger has done just that.
What started as a job just to get his feet in the door turned into not only a career, but also a lifestyle.
"When I took the job, I never counted on staying that long. I never counted on liking it when I took it. I was 25 years old and taking a Division I job, who knew where that could lead," Mildenberger said. "It has been a fantastic personal and professional platform for me. I've really enjoyed it. I've had some opportunities to leave and have chosen not to."
And after a while, time starts to add up.
"Every Tuesday turned into 38 years," Mildenberger said. "You were still here one Tuesday which turned into another Tuesday and sooner or later there were 38 years of Tuesdays."
As an athletic trainer, you are interacting with countless people on a daily basis. From student-athletes to coaches to the athletic trainers, being enthusiastic and happy around the people you are working with is a must. Mildenberger says that is what he will miss the most.
"I'll miss the interaction with the athletic trainers and the student-athletes. Athletic training is a people business," he said. "We're taking care of highly-motivated, highly-skilled student-athletes. You have to work with great people to get that job done."
Nate Wickizer played basketball for the Aggies from 1992 to 1995. Now the chief operating officer of Cache Valley Electric, he looks back fondly on the days of interacting with Mildenberger.
"I was with him a lot during the years I played basketball at Utah State. He prepared us to play when we had injuries. He took care of us when we traveled. He was in charge of everything from the flights to the rental cars, the food and meal money, all the preparation," Wickizer said. "He was kind of the man. I had as much interaction during my years at USU with him as I had with anyone."
Wickizer is just one of easily thousands of people whose lives have been touched by Mildenberger. After 38 years in Cache Valley, he knows and works with a lot of people. Many of the athletes and trainers he has worked with have gone on to have highly successful careers of their own.
Jim Thornton started his career at Utah State as a student trainer. Now the head trainer at Clarion University, as well as the president of the National Athletic Trainers' Association, he is quick to credit his success to Mildenberger.
"From my standpoint, if you measure the effect that Dale had on me and my success, I'd say his career was definitely a successful one. He has left a legacy in me as an athletic trainer. He has affected my career and my life in a way that I can never repay. I only pray that I can have that sort of effect on my students," Thornton said.
Now 25 years into his own career, Thornton cites Mildenberger as his drive and motivation to teach his own student trainers how to work with athletes.

Weapon: a katana and a dagger
Personality: Aurora is a very standoffish person. She strives to be the best and wants nothing more than to complete her focus. She will go to all lengths in order to do so. She is tough and hates to display vulnerability. In fact she will only show how vulnerable she is under her tough outer layer around those she trusts with her life. It will take her time to open up to the others in the group, but that doesn't mean she won't protect them. She's a fighter with a mysterious past she rarely talks about. She is protective though, especially of those younger than her.
History: Not much is known about Aurora's past, in fact she rarely talks about it and no one knows her real name. A member of the Guardian Corps she was called out to the ruins of Oerba to investigate a possible sighting of The Shadow's meddling, upon her arrival she saw five others there, and when she went to call out a Pulse Fal'Cie made itself known and marked the six of them as l'Cie. (My character has a hidden past that will be revealed throughout the story.)
Paradigms: Commando, Ravager, Medic
Eidolon: Odin
Begin Again

elsa - Just chillin' by IndironWatch
©2014-2016 Indiron
Sittin on my frozen throne and chillin, lol.
A small twist to the original Elsa.
EDIT: I have fixed some problematic parts, its been pissing me off xd
Commissions are available; indiron.deviantart.com/journal…

Featured stuff(tuts,paintings,animations,etc):
Looks like Narnia just got a new White Witch.
Seeing this, I have the urge to shout PLEASE DON'T SMITE ME!
She looks like she's ready to rule Jotunheim with Loki...
Beautiful details on the throne! Although I'm not too fond of the cut of her dress (sexualization of existing characters is not my cup of tea, but it doesn't detract from how technically well done the picture is), I really like how you emphasized it was made out of ice. You also did a spectacular job with the colors, which makes the picture convey a cold, almost callous, mood. However, amidst the spikes of ice and the storm that's forming in her hand, Elsa appears almost vulnerable. Great contrast!
I think Arthas has a wife now
whoa whoa!!!! I love her and thank you for such amazing art!!!
Wow... So are you designing the next Disney villain?
Eek! Scary!!!
Love your twist on Elsa
epic elsa, better than the other ones ive seen!
Great job!
Beautiful artwork Absolutely great work, very realistic looks, like it
WONDERFUL. I put it in this funny poster about anime Gintama. Hope you like it and laugh xD emmagucci.deviantart.com/art/G…
Daaaayyyyyuummm Elsa is HOT
Damn, that's good!
If ever you took art trades (and I'm pretty sure you don't), I'd like to have one with you. I want to try and challenge myself with some of the DAMN good artists here.

So Amazing work!!!
Much badass ^-^
Ankle structure on her right food is a little off, too boxy and needs a little more shape to it. Great colouring, though.
Love it! Really nicely done!
Holy molly! Actually I saw your work few days ago, the princess celestia one, woah I freaking love your art!
Holy molly! Actually I saw your work few days ago, the princess celestia one, woah I freaking love your art!
Nice, but she seems to come off as more of the classic Disney "Evil Witch" here (which she could easily become, if not for Anna [matter of fact, I have read that she was originally intended to be the villain, as in the original fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen)
She reminds me of Killer Frost...
Oh. Wow.
And I thought Nuktuk wasn't a warm dresser...
So she is the Queen beyond the wall. Winter is here!
looks amazing! love it!
Wow. Fantastic work. Elsa so danger. Amazing.
Winter is coming!!! It reminds me of the iron throne XD
it's amazing as always ^^ something i noticed though is she looks very mature. and i don't mean the nude-level of the dress XD it's something in her face that has her look mature.
Really cool pic of Elsa I like her ice throne and also how you have made the dress cascade over the little step and how it folds and makes shadows. It is very detailed
One thing that is bothering me though is that her right leg has a shoe with a heel but the left leg looks like it has a flat shoe ^^
Makes me think of Emma Frost.
Wow! This pic is AMAZING!!!!
Splendid, splendid!
Holy, epic-ally magnificent! Queen Elsa looks stunning and All of The Ice Fractals are incredible! The throne,expression, pose, dress, hair,magic, atmosphere, sunlight, textures, sharpness, concept, composition, uniqueness, colora, lighting, style, and other details are also wonderful! Amazingly beautiful work!
If I didn't know better, I say you gave a Lich King style to her. Epically with that chair.
Great piece of work!
Thanks for sharing...

CSN Washington "Competitor that he is, Doug Fister never wants to admit he's not physically fit to pitch.

I've trying to work around this on the actionbar but from What I can see the title is basicly a TextView but I need to place an image instead of plain text. I try to set it up into the Style themes.xml as this:
<item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/MyActionBar</item>
And then I defined this style
<style name="MyActionBar" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.Light.ActionBar">
<item name="android:background">@drawable/action_background</item>
<item name="android:titleTextStyle">@style/ActionbarTitleStyle</item>
I thought that I could defined the background for the title but even If I do is not what I want, try the getActionBar().setCustomView(layout); but happend that my actionbar is null before the setContentView is being called and I need it in a Base class.
PD. I only need to care about HONEYCOMB and Higher, so if you please not suggest Sherlock or Jonhanilson implementations.

JHU engineering students tackle fish-passage problem at historic dam
A relic of times past, Maryland's Bloede Dam—the world's first self-contained, underwater hydroelectric dam—stretches across the Patapsco River in what is now Patapsco State Park. Built in 1907, this dam, a hollow-core concrete structure 230 feet across and more than 30 feet tall, provided power to nearby homes and businesses in the Patapsco Valley, a hotbed of industrial innovation in the 1930s.
Abandoned in 1931, the dam now is the focus of an environmental dilemma. The structure stands between migratory fish, such as herring and Hickory shad, and more than 60 miles of free-flowing river. But it also is a historical landmark, and its removal raises concerns about releasing stored sediments into the river and, ultimately, the Chesapeake Bay. This spring, Johns Hopkins students in the Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering's Senior Design Class were tasked with developing solutions to the environmental stalemate.
The challenge: to solve the fish-passage problem while accounting for issues of water quality, public safety, integrity of a nearby sewer line, historical and cultural values, and cost and feasibility.

Sunday, Monday, and Always: Stories by Dawn Powell
by Dawn Powell
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I love Dawn Powell's novels, but the short stories don't quite measure up. They lean more heavily on her anger than on her humor, offsetting the balance that makes her longer works so enjoyable. That said, "Cheerio," one of the most devastating stories about bohemia you'll ever read, manages to encompass everything that made her such a fierce satirist.
The short story "What are you doing in my dreams" is worth the price of the book.

Sublimely spiritual work from the great John Coltrane – a live album, but one that's easily one of his most important contributions to music in the early 60s – and a set that we'd rank right up there with his best studio sides for Impulse or Atlantic Records at the time! The group here features McCoy Tyner on piano, Reggie Workman on bass, and Elvin Jones on drums – plus the very important addition of Eric Dolphy on the leadoff tune "Spiritual" – a number that features Dolphy on bass clarinet alongside Coltrane's tremendous tenor, as both players open up on extended solos that take the tune to nearly 14 minutes in length! Other numbers omit Dolphy, but are still totally great – and Coltrane picks up the soprano sax for a classic reading of "Softly As In A Morning Sunrise" – and the group shifts slightly for the freer "Chasin The Trane", a 16 minute romp done with only tenor sax, drums, and bass – the latter of which is handled here by Jimmy Garrison instead of Workman. (Black label ABC Impulse pressing.) © 1996-2016, Dusty Groove, Inc.
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Crean Lutheran runners dominate
The Crean Lutheran boys and girls cross country teams won the team titles at the Academy League Finals on Tuesday at Irvine Regional Park.
"It is exciting to win both and we give all the glory to God," Saints coach Tim Brink said. "We want to continue to keep the intensity of our training at a high level and come up with a good plan for Mt. SAC at CIF prelims."
The Saints boys ended St. Margaret's run of four consecutive league titles and won their first league title by placing all five scoring runners in the top eight to finish with 26 points.
The Tartans produced the league's individual champion for the fifth straight year. Collin Price crossed the finish line first in 15:24.
The Saints girls team scored 31 points for its second league title in a row. Lauren Maurer (18:38) captured the individual title.
"I was focused on helping to push our team and setting a good pace in the first mile," Maurer said. "After about a mile and a half, I felt really good and started concentrating on finishing strong."
The Saints' Mandie Reyes (19:03) and Shannon Howell (19:53) finished second and third.
In the girls tennis playoffs:
In Division 5:
Segerstrom 12, Savanna 6: Tiana Cung won two of her three singles matches to help the Jaguars (12-8) beat the Rebels (8-10) in a wild-card round match at Savanna.

How to Make Salt Dough Christmas Ornaments

- 1/2 cup of flour
- 1/4 cup of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 1/2 cup of water, approximately
1Combine the flour, sugar, salt and water in a bowl. If it doesn't form a dough consistency after mixing, add more water until it does.
2Add cinnamon to give it a Christmas scent.
3Roll the dough out flat, with a 1/4 to 1/2 thickness.
4Use Christmas cutouts to make Christmas shapes.
5Let them dry overnight.
6Paint them with frosting.
7Put a small hole in the top of the ornament 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 inch (1.3 to 1.9 cm) from the top.
8Put a ribbon through the hole, making sure you have a big enough loop to go around the branches of your tree.
9Cut the ribbon and tie a knot at the top. Leave to dry for at least 24 hours before hanging in the tree.
10Place ornaments on your tree.

- Make sure to prepare the dough quickly, else it may harden.

In the past, [artist id="3187077″]Justin Bieber[/artist] has merely teased fans with funky dance moves, but in the new video for his single "Somebody to Love," the teen pop star really lets loose, showing off some impressive choreography.
The full-length clip premieres online Friday, according to Justin's Twitter, but a sneak peek posted on PopEater.com shows Bieber and his mentor, [artist id="1270″]Usher[/artist], trading moves. The remix of "Somebody to Love" promises to be a spectacle of dance. Directed by Dave Meyers (Britney Spears, Avril Lavigne) and choreographed by Jamaica, who has also worked on clips by Ciara and Usher, the video features scenes of Bieber dancing with a team of backup dancers in front of a green screen. In other scenes, he's seen hanging out with Usher.
"It's really awesome to be able to work with professional dancers, you know, people that were in, like, ABDC," Bieber says in the video preview. Bieber also brags about getting the thumbs up from his choreographer: "She says that she's proud of me."
"He's killing it!" Jamaica chimes in, adding that she hasn't had to give the young star any corrections.
Instead of focusing on a love interest, as in past Bieber videos like "Baby," Meyers wanted this video to be a little more playful.
"[We're] bringing Justin into the world of dance on this one, giving Justin the chance to integrate to different styles of dance," Meyers says in the video. "So we kind of kept it simple with the art direction, just real graphic and really highlighting the dance. No big story lines, no crowds of people, just real clean."
The tune (not to be confused with tracks of the same name by Leighton Meester or Jefferson Airplane) is a dance track that finds Justin professing his love for a girl, telling her he doesn't need much else — just her.
"It's basically about somebody to love," Justin laughs. "It's cool. It's young. It's nice. I think it's like a universal record."
Are you excited to really see Justin dance in his new video? Let us know in the comments!

Swarms of flying ants are not uncommon during the summer months. If these swarms are from colonies in your yard or the walls of your house you may want to get rid of them. This is a guide about getting rid of flying ants.
We had ants. They flew, they crawled, and they took over my kitchen. I tried everything I could think of, commercial sprays, home made solutions, and nothing worked. I store everything in jars, made sure no dirty dishes or food ever remained out, but yet they came.
An internet friend told me to try Terro Ant Killer. I checked it out online but thought it sounded too good to be true. While browsing in the store one day I ran across it and was surprised to find out it was only a little over $2.00 so I purchased some. I put little blobs of it on small squares of foil and sat it out for them. (If you buy this product please read the instructions, because once you put it out it will attract all the ants to it. They eat it, and take it back to the nest. Had I of not read the instructions I probably would of killed them while they were eating it.) But I did allow them to eat it, and it seemed thousands came. After eating their fill they went back to their nest to feed the others. Within two days, every ant was gone!

I have a problem with flying insects. They look like giant flying ants, about 1 inch long. I thought they may have been termites, but a friend of mine said they weren't. I live in Tampa Florida. They seem to come around at the beginning of summer.
They swarm the outside of my house and find any way in they can, through gaps in the windows and doors, under baseboards, etc. They don't bite but are a real pain. Does anyone have any idea what they are and how I can get rid of them permanently?
By LKaylor from Tampa, FL
As said in another post, carpenter ants.
How do you get rid of flying ants in the house?
By mamamia17 from Roselle, IL
I can't answer this question, they are not termites and they are driving me crazy too. Tiny flying ants and we have sprayed three times. They swarm in my bedroom and its totally clean, so help please.
Does anyone have a remedy for tiny flying ants that are swarming one of my windows in the bedroom I rent in a shared house? My landlord refuses to do anything about it (that's another story). I get about 60-80 little flying ants about 5 or 6 PM each evening that fly around any lights when they're turned on, and are gone the next morning.
They're not termites - they have a pinched body. I don't think they're carpenter ants as they're tiny and have wings. Would Borax work, and if I sprinkle it in my room is it safe to sleep there as well? And it's very humid here - would Borax ruin the wood windowsills if I sprinkled it around the window that they congregate around?
Thanks for any help, I am really being driven crazy for now and am looking for a new place to live, but won't be able to move out for another month.
Cornmeal a thin line, they pick it up to feed their colonies. Great thing is the cornmeal swells up and kills them.

I thought only 50/60 I and P movie modes were available RX100MK1?
I need all my light but €250 extra for that 25i/p movie mode for double the light available on the MK2 no way.
So i bought the MK1 and accepted the fact that it would only do 50I and 50P unless Sony would release an bios update.
But if i set movie mode to shutter 1/25 and 50i or 50p, something says me that its a 25fps movie with as much light as a real 25I/P movie on the Mk2. Am I missing something here?

Updated story.
Christopher Schwarzenegger, the 13-year-old son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, was hospitalized last weekend after a serious surfing accident, reports TMZ. He suffered multiple broken bones and a collapsed lung, and is currently in intensive care. TMZ's sources confirm that Shriver is a constant bedside presence while Schwarzenegger has been a "regular visitor." TMZ also notes that the entire family has pulled together as a unit to support each other while Christopher recovers.
The couple's older children Katherine and Patrick Schwarzenegger seemed to confirm the report via Twitter this morning. Patrick Schwarzenegger tweeted, "Thank you everyone for your messages about my brother. This kid is strongest kid I ever seen. Keep praying". Katherine echoed his gratitude minutes later in this tweet: "Thank you guys for ur concern and prayers for my baby brother! He's a tough little guy and getting better! Please keep praying for him! Xo".
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver later sent a joint statement to TMZ thanking supporters for their prayers, as well as the medical professionals who are caring for Christopher. From TMZ:
On behalf of our entire family, we want to sincerely thank the paramedics and lifeguards who responded so swiftly as well as the doctors, nurses, emergency room and hospital staff who have cared for our son. They have been extraordinary to him and to us. We thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers and ask for respect and privacy for Christopher and our family.
For the entire statement, check out TMZ.com.
The Los Angeles County Fire Department also released the phone call that Shriver placed to emergency responders. The Associated Press reports:
Shriver was composed when she alerted emergency workers in a phone call - apparently from the beach - about 12:20 p.m. Sunday.
He "can't move off the beach - maybe like a broken ribs or something like that," Shriver tells a Los Angeles County Fire Department operator, according to a recording released by the department.
"He's having trouble breathing," she says.
Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver have four children together: Katherine, Christina, Patrick and Christopher.
Check out this slideshow from HuffPost Divorce to learn about Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver's four children.

Skip to comments.Swift pays cash for $17M home [Country Girl Singer Drops Millions for Rhode Island Mansion]
Posted on 04/30/2013 1:58:09 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper
Taylor Swift is adding to her property portfolio after securing a $17.75 million deal for a new seaside home in Rhode Island.
The I Knew You Were Trouble hitmaker recently went house hunting along the U.S. northeast coast with her mother Andrea, father Scott and younger brother Austin, and she appears to have settled on a lavish estate in the town of Westerly.
The property, which boasts five bedrooms and sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, had reportedly been on the market for $20 million - but Swift managed to use her charms to negotiate the lower price -- she paid in cash.
(Excerpt) Read more at jam.canoe.ca ...
Financed by pre teen girls
but Swift managed to use her charms to negotiate the lower price"
That's a lot of charm.
Sounds like she has money to burn.
Hope she held enough back to pay her fair share of Obamatax.
SHE lives in Rhode Island?
Wow, that is weird.
Why would anyone who lives in a fine state like Tennessee want to buy property in Rhode Island? Even if she's taken up sailing, there are nice big lakes in Tennessee.
A year ago, maybe 2, she bought a house by the Kennedy's. IIRC she bought it for about $4 mil and sold it a few months later for about $5 mil.
Thats not the first she's done that with. Seems real estate is becoming a hobby for her.
A lucrative hobby.
More power to her.
Is she still dating the Kennedy kid?
I wonder what property and school taxes are on that place.
Nice "summer" shack.
At least 200,000.
Dude, courtesy ping.
They have people like that in New England, too.
If it isn't salt water, you aren't really sailing.
So you admit they are from Tennessee.
Those are people?
I've heard that said. My father was a 30-year Navy man, so until I went to college in San Antonio, it was all salt water, all the time.
Now my daughter is in the Coast Guard ... I think the ocean thing skipped a generation.
I wouldn't know, never met them.
They remind me of some of my in-laws.
Or fishing.
That's racist?
Five bedrooms? If I spent $17m I'd think it would have more than that.
-— she paid in cash -—
Hehehehe... Good for her.
Yes, I have teenage girls who are fans, so I've listened to a lot of her music. She's a very talented song writer. Her songs have melodies, and she covers a variety of styles.
My favorite song is, "Haunted," her hardest rocker, and "December."
Yes, her fans are mainly young girls, but that's because she wrote her own lyrics as a teenager.
It looks like she is going to avoid the fate of Britney Spears and Linsey Lohan (good parenting), and because she's so prolific, she could become one of the biggest acts in music history. I expect her to rival Streisand and Carey in the pantheon of female singers.
I live in TN and I take offense...where did you get my elementary school picture?
Are we related? I've got family they remind me of.
Must be - everything else is.
From your brother.
My teenage daughters are fans, too. I encourage them to imitate Taylor Swift's work ethic, but not her relationship history.
My 15-year-old is better looking and has a better voice, but she doesn't have the drive! (And doesn't write songs.) You'd think being paid cash for playing guitar at Spanish church events would be a motivator, but no. I still have to say, "You're doing this whether you want to or not," when I need a guitarist. Then she gets 20 or 30 dollars for an hour, and she's all excited, but the slacker urge is so strong ...
I wouldn't know a song she has, & could care less. Obviously she must appeal to teenies from liberal dumb-ass families who are spending loads of Daddy's cash to bankroll Taylor Swift. BTW, isn't Taylor a boy's name?
Lakes are great, but they're different from the ocean. Check out the Cape Cod National Seashore, sometime. It's breathtaking.
Cape Cod a short drive from RI, which has jet-set shorlines (Newport), and NYC, too.
The nice thing about NE is that within 200 miles you can visit a variety of dramatically different environments.
We all know what the drawbacks are. I wish conservatives would invade MA and RI. It's beautiful here.
"Thats a lot of charm."
15% is not that big of a discount. Maybe charm had nothing to do with it. "Accept my price or I write a mean song about you".
Yeah, maybe. But her bedrooms are 1200 square feet.
Five bedrooms? If I spent $17m Id think it would have more than that.
Her money.
We lived in Rhode Island for several years when I was a girl. I agree, it is beautiful. Some of my parents' Navy friends still have summer homes in New England, and winter in The Villages, in Florida.
Whats the difference between country and western?
-— but the slacker urge is so strong ... ——
My youngest has that slacker streak too. I guess it takes being hungry for some people.
Whenever I saw some daylight as a kid, I'd run with it.
-— summer homes in New England, and winter in The Villages, in Florida.——
That's the way to go. I can definitely live without January and February.
My 9-year-old granddaughter, an aspiring singer (lol), is a big Taylor Swift fan, so I've listened to my fair share of her tunes. My favorite is "Never Grow Up," which chokes me up every time I hear it.
I don't get it. I had one brother at home. My kids have (currently) a total of nine in the house. And yet, they seem to have no drive to achieve independence. Even my 16-year-old, who's going to be a National Merit Scholar, is looking at in-state universities. At his age, with my test scores (better than his!), I'd drawn a circle 1,000 miles in diameter and wasn't looking inside.
And I wasn't hungry, either. I just wanted distance. How can homeschooled kids who do nothing but gripe about their constrictions not want some distance, and go for it when it's within reach.
Elen can sing in Spanish. If she learned half a dozen songs, she could make more than I do as a wedding-and-funeral soloist, because she has a better voice and more free time. One of the other girls in the homeschool association has a recording contract at 16 ... admittedly, she writes her own songs, but Elen could be working every weekend as a guitarist/soloist, if she wanted to.
It beats the heck out of babysitting!

Carmen Ashhurst decided it was time to leave the music business when one of the acts she managed tried to communicate with her using a sawed-off shotgun. When she was president of Def Jam Recordings, the hip hop record company, Ashhurst's life was threatened more than once. While the gun-toting musician was on his way to her office, she found herself debating whether calling the police would be bad for publicity. Eventually Ashhurst realized that she wasn't comfortable with risking her life for her company's street cred.
Now a major gifts officer at Sarah Lawrence, Ashhurst recently gave the keynote address at the 12th Annual Women's History Conference, "The Message is in the Music: Hip Hop Feminism, Riot Grrrl, Latina Music, and More." Ashhurst spent nine years at Def Jam beginning in 1988, during what many critics consider the golden age of hip hop, which lasted from the late 1980s through the early '90s. During that time, Ashhurst said, hip hop was a rising form of expression for a diverse community that included a variety of artists, from rappers with activist messages to those making lighthearted party music. But, according to Ashhurst, as the music became commercialized and production companies pushed profits, sex and violence came to dominate the industry, which made it difficult for rappers who didn't fit the mold to produce their music.
Female entrepreneurs played a vital role in popularizing hip hop, Ashhurst maintained—which is ironic, since the genre is now often equated with misogyny and the commodification of women. "Even with all these progressive women—black and white—running things in the beginning, hip hop music and culture managed to devolve into materialism, misogyny, and in my view, profound racial self-hatred," she said. Her words set the stage for many of the panel discussions during the two-day conference by framing the struggle that women in the music business often face.
Despite the limitations on the business side of the equation, music can still provide an arena for feminist activism and political expression. Conference presenters explored the various ways in which music influences women's lives, self-perception, and societal roles, as well as how feminists have used music to present their political messages. Participants from across the United States and as far away as England and South Africa engaged in discussions analyzing the interplay of Latina music, hip hop, and movements such as riot grrrl with modern feminism.
Ashhurst's talk had moments of hope as well. Though it is often difficult for musicians with activist messages to reach the mainstream, the Internet offers a new level of accessibility, she said. "It's a more personalized, underground, home-based experience. With music you buy online, downloads, and file swapping, there is much less public involvement with the purchase of your music. … The music business has yet to acclimate itself, and that's the struggle they're facing right now."
By bypassing physical music stores and distributors, both listeners and musicians have more autonomy, something that Ashhurst believes could empower musicians with socially conscious messages. Transforming the way that music is purchased and promoted through the Internet might allow hip hop artists to reclaim their images and create music that lives up to its potential to be progressive, while managing to reach a wider audience. If so, she said, perhaps there is another "golden age" of hip hop on the horizon.

Great cause and great job coach! Makes us proud.
Let me know when there is a bicycle demographic for the ride. I saw bike at first and thought I'd make the trip back to the state, but alas, not quite for me. Still very cool. Thanks to all the riders from someone who's lost a grandparent to this terrible disease.

Bar Noir, late night. Much smoke, little light. Bobby Startup, owner David. Always cordial, misbehavin'. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There's almost always a line, but if you're very fabulous (and a little patient), you'll get in sooner or later. Everyone is dancing, everywhere – on benches and tables. You're certain to find the best mix in Philadelphia. No Attytudes here, just peaceful people dancing the night away.
A limousine scavenger hunt to benefit the Greater Philadelphia Film Office was held Saturday, November, 17th in The Mayor''s Reception Room. The first scene was a lively cocktail party as guests gathered to receive clues to films shot in Philadelphia. The action continued as the guests raced to waiting limousines to scour the City unraveling riddles, all the while nibbling food and sipping (or gulping) champagne. Meanwhile, back at The Hall, the hunters returned to the victory party, scores were tabulated and prizes awarded as all enjoyed dessert and dancing.
The Rittenhouse Hotel was the place to be on Thursday, October 25th, if you love French food. The March of Dimes held a delicious fundraiser called An Evening in Lyon, complete with four of the world's master French chefs. The gracious and lovely Honorable Daniele Thomas-Easton was the emcee and charmed everyone with her melodic French accent. A reverential hush came over the room when the food was served as people tried to maintain decorum while devouring the sinful fare.
On Monday, October 22nd The Marian Anderson Award was presented to musical genius Quincy Jones. Marian Anderson was one of the most celebrated African-American contraltos of the twentieth century. She was born in Philadelphia in 1897, and became a beloved symbol of the triumph of talent over prejudice and bigotry. Eleanor Roosevelt herself was a high-profile supporter of Marian Anderson and engaged her to sing at the Lincoln Memorial in 1939. The award presented to Quincy Jones was preceded by tributes at the Academy of Music by the Philadelphia Orchestra, opera singer Grace Bumbry, legendary trumpeter John Faddis and a blow-out, sing-along with Stevie Wonder.
The Print Center of Philadelphia held an open house auction called Beatnik Bash, with staff and guests dressed in black berets and turtlenecks. The crowd was enthusiastic (not a Beatnik trait, but hey, this is Nouveau Beat) and pre-bid on such items as an original Robert Asman Print.
