NYRA's New Twist on the Old Bait and Switch
ELMONT, NY, May 10, 2016 - The internet and social media has been abuzz with news about the New York Racing Association's plans to install a synthetic racing surface at Aqueduct Racetrack.
All went as planned for NYRA: It was was dealt lemons and decided to make lemonade instead.
NYRA appeared to be shutout when officials from New York State announced a deal that put 1,000 video lottery terminals allotted to Nassau County OTB in Genting's Resorts World Casino at Aqueduct Racetrack.
That deal was cut without any revenue from the added VLT's scheduled to be paid to NYRA or horsemen.
However, the deal requires the New York State Gaming Commission to oversee Nassau OTB's repayment of debt to NYRA, which totaled over $5-million for 2015 through the first quarter of 2016.
NYRA also used the occasion of a May 2nd meeting of the Franchise Oversight Board meeting to fire a shot across the bow of Genting's flagship casino in New York City.

The Pick Six Dinosaur and The Future of Exchange Wagering
ELMONT, NY, April 26, 2016 – The New York Racing Association's Pick Six is not yet dead but it's now struggling on life support. Once regarded as a major betting attraction of NYRA's racing day, the Pick Six has become a minor, almost irrelevant, wager.
The reason for this is obvious. The minimum betting unit is $2 while newer wagers, such as the popular Pick Four and Pick Five, have 50-cent minimums. The New York State Gaming Commission had a chance to correct this problem yesterday but failed to do so.
At their monthly meeting, members of the NYSGC attempted to standardized the rules governing the Pick Four, Pick Five and Pick Six. They were all introduced at different times and thus regulated differently.
The Pick Six would benefit from uniform rules concerning multiple race wagers in one way that the commission didn't consider. The New York Pick Six could have been heralded as unique if suddenly there were a 50-cent minimum like the Pick Four and Pick Five. Let

Record-Breaking Preakness Weekend: Saga of Triumph and Tragedy
HALLANDALE BEACH, FL., May 23, 2016—Just got to love Thoroughbred racing's Classics: All of it; the pomp, circumstances and performances; animals giving their all, expert horsemanship and, of course, controversy. What's racing without it?
First the bad news: Leave it to the Drudge Report and other major media outlets, even in my local television market, to lead their Preakness coverage with the two equine fatalities that occurred early Preakness day.
The tagline, by the way, was "Exaggerator won the Preakness denying Nyquist his bid for the Triple Crown."
What did I expect? What should the industry expect when it gives its horsemen's groups power to lord over everything, especially leading the opposition to national standardized medication rules and independent, federal oversight of testing procedures?
Before hearing from the Excuse 101 department, this is not about a government takeover.
It's about the Feds appointing an independent agency, such as the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, to mandate standardized medications thresholds and uniform, meaningful sanctions without scape-goating tactics.
It's about rules and sanctions being administered by appointed board regulators; USADA board members acting in concert with industry appointed regulators.
Why should change come? Because optics matter and so that when equine deaths occur, it would be a portion of big-event racing coverage, not its lead media item.

Promoting Greed Hurting Bettors and Bet-Takers
HALLANDALE BEACH, FL., May 15, 2016—Bitch, bitch, bitch…that's all horseplayers and certain segments of the media do. Complain and complain and complain and…
Well, here's a suggestion for industry movers and shakers who feel that way: Just stop providing the grist for our bitchy mills.
Kentucky Derby Is Always on the First Saturday in May
Always, and without fail. It's an American institution, the embodiment of Americana, right?
So why doesn't various bet takers—mostly referencing you, ADWs--invest a little revenue in needed bandwidth, for the sole and express purpose and earning more revenue?
Never mind that you're in a service industry and all you really need do is to provide prompt service to customers in the only area that matters: wagering.
Every year, what happened at TVG.com last week and at a couple of Las Vegas casinos--and likely others with which we are unaware—is that the system, not the players, go on tilt.
The question is shouldn't all segments of the industry invest in the latest technology, whatever the individual cost, to properly handle the final hour of wagering on the Kentucky Derby?
Damn right they should.

All Stakes Late Pick 4 Preakness Fans
Exclusively for 123BET.com
The following is a thumbnail sketch of every horse in today's Late Pick 4 at Pimlico, concluding with the 141st running of the Preakness Stakes. All horses listed by program number with early line odds
1-MONSTER SLEEPING (15-1) has worthy turf slate (10) 4-3-2 but winless in two starts at the trip, makes course debut and owns slow figures. Of six sibs to win, she's the lone grass winner.
2-PEACE PRIZE (30-1) raced greenly in U.S. debut but rallied gamely for place and was claimed into barn that doe OK with new acquisitions given a limited sample. Rider Kali 2-for-9 for this barn but this is entirely different animal for this 4YO.
3-TIGER RIDE (7-2) has won half of her six turf starts, including two at this trip, has competitive Pricci Energy Ratings with this group and makes third start off the layup for Motion, profitable with graded stakes runners, and barn regular Prado in the boot.
4-CAMILLIE CLAUDEL (20-1) of dams two offspring to win, none have come on turf. Best guess for recent secondary allowances winner is that she's looking for race to shift to wet main track.
5-OL' FASHION GAL (6-1) looks like bargain purchase for $60K is a nicely developing 4YO winner of Grade 3s in both Canada and U.S. Stable rider Leparoux aloft but this class jump looks formidable here. Interesting prospect.
6-NISHARONA (12-1) is 5YO daughter of mare that has produced four turf victors from as many winners to race including her. Returns with bounce-rebound pattern, she handles any type of ground but this is ambitious win spot for turf barn yet to win a graded stakes.
7-FLYING TIPAT (15-1) boasts ordinary 2-for-15 turf slate at lower levels and has run to run a competitive figure. Romans' charges know for surprises and is reaching for home boy Lanerie here.
8-JOSDESAIMEAUX (4-1) is a lightly raced 4YO with gaps in her running lines but has repeatedly brought her 'A' game recently. Owns competitive recent PERs and is second off a layoff for Casse/Lezcano team that's enjoying profitable 2016.
9-MISS MONEY (9-2) is a nicely developing 4YO that was highly competitive in overnight stakes at Fair Grounds this winter. Returns fresh with steady works for Flint barn, whose horses often outrun their odds. Note switch to Castellano.
10-GINGER N RYE (12-1)placed gamely in a Laurel overnighter when making slowly run 4YO debut. Figures to benefit for crafty turf connections (limited sample) and owns promising turf slate (4) 2-2-0 with a win at this trip.
11-VIELSALM (30-1) the closest she's come to this level of competition is a narrow defeat vs. Maryland-breds last year as 5YO. Beaten 3-1/2 lengths in tough-trip sprint return from layup Apr. 24 but draw does her no favors.
12-HEATH (6-1) makes second start off the layup for Mott (21%) in which she handled 11 rivals off the bench and has been very competitive in overnight turf stakes. Owns versatile style beneath versatile Geroux with worthy 3-for-8 turf slate, including two wins at the trip.

All Stakes Pick 4 at Belmont Park
Exclusively for
RACE 7: Grade 2 RUFFIAN STAKES F & M 4 & UP 1 MILE
1-Cavorting (8-5)
finished one-paced after saving ground in 4YO debut, the G3 Distaff four weeks ago. Benefits, is 2-for-3 at Belmont but draws unenviable pole slot and is 0-for-2 at distance. Very classy but with mixed signals.
2-Include Betty (5-1)
won the G1 Mother Goose over this ground at 3 and is 2-for-2 at the trip. Hard-tryer should benefit from season's debut Mar. 5 but speed figures lacking here.
3-Spelling Again (12-1)
circling back to excellent Pricci Energy Rating under exact dynamics at CD three back. Cox 27% profitable going sprint to route after improving in Cox barn. Excellent value at early line odds.
4-Calamity Kate (8-1)
earned career best figure winning Delaware Oaks last year and broke maiden at this trip, on this course at 3. Won off similar layoff last year and picks up Johnny. Fair early line quote.
5-Welcome Aboard (30-1)
is 6-for-17 vs. weaker on turf and 2-for-9 on dirt. Reed 22% with his shippers but this is extremely ambitious.
6-Carrumba (7-5)
owns fastest PER, handles any footing and is (7) 4-3-0 lifetime including (3) 2-1-0 slate at Belmont and is 2-for-2 at trip. Well posted and dynamics suited with regular partner, aggressive Jose Ortiz. Deserving favorite; strongest on Thoro-Graph scale

Saturday's Preakness a great show but a poor bet
Nyquist figures to dominate the Preakness just as he has his previous eight races and head to Belmont vying to become the second Triple Crown winner in 38 years. It will be difficult to find betting value even in the exotics. But it's still one of racing's biggest spectacles, so watch and enjoy. Also don't forget to support Canterbury, which opens its 2016 seasonon Friday, with its new low takeout, which will be monitored nationwide.

Nothing in Preakness will thwart Triple Crown bid
Christopher Kay and the New York Racing Assn. are odds-on to be able to again enforce their crowd cap for the Belmont Stakes--the only track ever to turn away fans. Nyquist has nothing to fear from the herd lining up to scrimmage for the minor awards at the Preakness. The mile and a half of the Belmont looks to be the only obstacle to back-to-back Triple Crown winners.

Ryuu's senses were calm, but that calm was instantly broken when he heard a voice from inside the room.
"Oi, you're early. By like, an hour. Aren't you an excited one...."
Ryuu turned towards the direction of the voice, but his blood seemed to be pumping too much into his head again. He had trouble identifying immediately where the voice actually came from. Ryuu did some searching around the room, trying to locate the sound of the voice,before his eyes finally saw the figure of Natruo sitting on the far side of the room.
Ryuu controlled his body to move forward, but the resulting adrenaline made him almost break into a run. Finally, though, he seemed to be in total control again, as he realized he would soon be in combat once again.
"You're here as well, which means you either were expecting me to be early, or you were training here. Either way, that means you were looking forward to this almost as much as I was, so, if you don't f*cking mind, I'd prefer to get started before that midnight mark!"
Ryuu took in a deep breath, and then exhaled. As he did, he turned his body to face Natruo, and clenched his fists. Ryuu had a heightened sense of things now. He could hear Natruo breathing, even from this distance. He saw all the noticable object in the room, and even some that weren't worth noticing. He could feel the night air rush in, possibly through a small crack in a window somewhere. He could feel the rain still drizzling outside.
Ryuu was ready to fight.
A Legend once told me that roleplaying is about bringing people together and celebrating creative vision.

Western Wayne and Montrose girls track teams complete unbeaten seasons
Western Wayne and Montrose completed undefeated seasons and captured Lackawanna Track Conference division titles Monday.
Acacia Urian won the 300 hurdles and javelin and Diana Hassan won the shot put and discus as Western Wayne defeated Delaware Valley, 112-38, for its 37th straight win and sixth straight division title, claiming the Division II crown with a 6-0 record.
"It's really special to see the way these kids have risen to the challenge the last six years," Western Wayne coach Justin Collins said. "It's a different group every year. One moves on and another comes in and they always seem to respond. It's a special time to be part of the track program here at Western Wayne."
Montrose completed its undefeated season with a 117-33 win over Blue Ridge to secure the LTC Division IV championship.
It is the first division championship for the Lady Meteors since 2006. Allison Lewis won the 200 and 400, Samantha Bennici won the 800 and 1,600, Rebecca Timm won the 300 hurdles and pole vault, and Madelyn Pasteka won the long and high jumps for Montrose.
"I am elated for what they have been able to achieve," Montrose coach Sean Castellani said. "To have this group come in and take the torch from Julia Koloski and Sarah Kimsey and to have them achieve a championship is great.
"This is a huge accomplishment."
Lakeland (4-0, 5-0) will be at Dunmore (3-1, 4-1) in an LTC Division III meet that was postponed until today. Dunmore needs a win to grab a share of the Division III title.
Holy Cross (4-1, 5-1) remained in contention for a share of the Division III title by finishing with a 134-12 win over Carbondale Area. Ashley Hensel won the javelin, long jump and high jump, while Kaitlyn McDonnell won the 100 and 200 for the Lady Crusaders.
Also Cassie Semyon won the 1,600 and 3,200 to lead Riverside to a 72-69 win over Mid Valley.
In Division I, Scranton Prep defeated West Scranton, 123-26. Lexi Davis set a school record by clearing 9 feet, 6 inches in the pole vault and LaBrae Lavelle won the 100 and high jump, while Elizabeth Pattera won the long and triple jumps for the Classics.
Valley View beat Scranton, 104-19. Carli Lucke won the 100 and 200 and Alex Caljean won the 1,600 and 3,200 for the Cougars.
In Division II, North Pocono defeated Honesdale, 90-51. Kaitlyn Lewis won the 800 and was part of two winning relay teams for the Lady Trojans.
And in Division IV, Elk Lake defeated Mountain View, 102-42. Meagan Bush set a school record in the shot put, hitting a distance of 36-5, and also won the discus.
Lackawanna Trail beat Susquehanna, 76-59. Kiernan Dougherty led the Lady Lions with wins in the 1,600 and 3,200.

THE Bohemian War, as the military conflict of the year 1620 is usually called, was as brief in its course as its results were decisive; for, strictly speaking, it extended over but four months. Its story is on the Protestant side from first to last one of helplessness, incompetence, and ill-faith. While Frederick's enemies were preparing to crush him, he was impotently allowing the confusion in his government to become chaos. The Bohemian army had returned from its futile march on Vienna, demoralised by failure and with ranks thinned by disease; its pay was in arrear, and the soldiery ready to break out into open mutiny; yet the Bohemian nobles were jealous of Anhalt holding the chief command over it. The condition of things had, however, improved by May, when Anhalt had effected a junction with Mansfeld, and had been further reinforced by a Silesian contingent. Bethlen Gabor too had now openly promised aid; and, a few weeks after Maximilian had crossed the frontier, a joint Bohemian and Hungarian embassy had started for Constantinople, and an informal Diet had elected Bethlen King at Pressburg.
After entering Upper Austria on July 24, 1620, with the army of the League (about two-thirds of the entire force), Maximilian reached Linz on August 4 without any serious impediment, and at once, in accordance with his commission from the Emperor, exacted provisional homage from the Estates. Their 2000-3000 mercenaries were quickly drafted into the army of the League; and a large body of armed peasantry that sought to obstruct its passage was cut to pieces. Maximilian then put forth his second Imperial commission, empowering him to bring back Bohemia, Moravia, and Silesia to their allegiance, and crossed the Bohemian frontier, turning aside again, however, into Lower Austria to effect his junction with Bucquoy.

El Da Sensei: Try Again EPBlack VinylVinyl LP Record [10"]

(Get e-mailed if ever back in stock)
Product Details
Member of: Artifacts
Featuring: Damu The Fudgemunk
Producers: D Smooth; House Shoes; Joc Max
SummaryOne of hip-hop's most consistent MCs, and notably one of a select few who has successfully constructing a solid discography since making his debut in '94 as one half of The Artifacts, El Da Sensei is more than familiar with the idea of what it means to Try Again. Opting for quality over quantity, the EP features a trio of songs alongside instrumental versions of each track. One of the reasons for El's longevity is that he never compromises his vision of what hip-hop is supposed to sound like and this EP is a true testament to his ethics. Lyrically El covers a lot of ground from introspective/ mature verses over a mesmerizing piano-driven track provided by Joc Max (DJ Spinna), through braggadocio / motivational raps on"Last Round," a collab with the outspoken Detroit DJ/ Producer/OG HouseShoes, however, the standout just might be the D-Smooth produced, Redman-approved, "Smoke To Me," El's highly descriptive ode to his favorite plant. If this brief but potent 10" leaves you wanting more, rest assured El is gonna keep delivering, just as he has been doing for nearly 20 years. Stay tuned for upcoming projects by El Da Sensei on Redefinition Records, including the return of the The Artifacts as well as collaborations with K-Def, Def Dee, Damu The Fudgemunk, Klaus Layer and more.

Prizes are awarded yearly to photographers and visual artists whose works are considered to be of exceptional artistic and humanistic merit. The visual art judge was Susan Mackay. Susan Mackay was born in South Africa and lived in Johannesburg until she moved to Hershey, PA in 1989. She currently lives in Hershey with her husband, Donald.
Susan began her professional career working in strategic planning and advertising. After spending years working as an executive at J. Walter Thompson and the Saatchi Group, she founded her own marketing consulting company while raising three boys: Duncan, Andrew, and Calum.
She discovered a passion for art and figurative drawing after moving to the United States.
"In drawing for me, the allure has always been the human figure. It is a continual battle to represent that force of life which flows through us. That is the true beauty. Transcending form and color of face and limb. I search for that which gives us life, and exudes from us in its joyful, passionate, and tragic forms."
|First Place
Susquehanna Skies in Blue and Orange
© Jonathan Frazier
Center Stage Performer and Standardized Patient for the Simulation Center
Judge's Comments: This artist has beautifully captured the stunning sunset reflected in the Susquehanna River. The composition with the sun as a focal point, offset to the left, helps to create dynamic tension and movement with the diagonal clouds. Their dramatic coloring is reflected in the equally colorful but calm scene of the river with its horizontal lines. Together this creates an interesting and absorbing scene.
|Second Place
Nancy Burnt the Popcorn Again
© Ryan Sommers
Son of Darlene Sommers, Department of Neural and Behavioral Sciences
Judge's Comments: This interesting composition challenges viewers to determine the artist's intent based on the title. It could be that "burning the popcorn" indicates a life lived without focused attention on the present. The sombre mood created by the choice of blue and black, the focus on the skeletal figure, and the varied use of line and paint techniques has resulted in a perfect sense of chaos and lack of control.
|Third Place
An Autumn Day
© Holly Boyle, MSIII
Judge's Comments: This is a skilled depiction of a quiet, peaceful, cold autumn day. The composition with the diagonal line of trees pulls the viewer in. There the viewer finds a wonderful place to walk and appreciate the colors. The play of light on the trees, the shadows, and the wonderfully-composed tree trunks all create a peaceful, contemplative scene.
|Honorable Mention
Troubled Mind
© Albert Sudol
Son of Malgorzata Sudol, Department of Medicine
Judge's Comments: Despite the use of complementary yellow and purple given to this painting, the artist has conveyed the deep desolation and angst of this figure: the arms wrapping the body, the static weight of the pose, the hand propping up the head that would surely collapse without it. The light playing on the white shirt, which is reminiscent of a straight jacket, highlights the depth of despair in the eyes. A Troubled Mind indeed.

Update on GladysGladys is a 39-year-old parent. She lives with her husband and their three children in their own house, which has electricity only, and is located in the Tambogrande district, which is part of the Lambayeque department. This area is noted for its farming, livestock-raising, and handicrafts.
For several years, Gladys has sold groceries: products used daily such as milk, rice, cooking oil, sugar, toilet paper, tuna, eggs, etc. She has set up her business in the market in the area where she lives. With the earnings from the sale of her products, she tries to cover all her expenses and improve her standard of living.
She also raises and sells goats, which she sells in the local markets, once they reach their optimal growth. She has had loans financed by Kiva previously, and has shown herself to be a client who is on time with her payments.
The loans have helped her a great deal, and her store is growing little by little. Now she is appealing to the generosity of the Kiva lenders, in order to apply for a loan of 2,500 nuevos soles, which she will use to expand her business by buying more merchandise. Her one dream is for her business to grow and have more products to offer customers, and enable her to cover her loan.
Gladys is a responsible, dedicated and hard-working person, who is concerned about helping her family get ahead in life.
Desde hace varios años Gladys se ha dedicado a la venta de abarrotes (productos que se utilizan diariamente como: leche, arroz, aceite, azúcar, papel higiénico, atún, huevos, etc), su negocio lo ha colocado en el mercado de la zona donde vive, con las ganancias por la venta de sus productos trata de cubrir todos sus gastos y mejorar su nivel de vida. También cría y vende ganado caprino (cabras),las cuales vende una vez que lleguen a su crecimiento óptimo en los mercados de la zona.
Ella ya ha tenido créditos financiados por Kiva anteriormente y ha demostrado ser una cliente puntual en sus pagos, los créditos le han ayudado mucho y su bodega está creciendo poco a poco. Actualmente recurre a la generosidad de los prestamistas de Kiva para solicitar un crédito de 2500 nuevos soles que utilizará para poder ampliar su negocio comprando más mercadería, con el único ideal de que su negocio crezca y tenga más productos para ofrecerles a sus clientes y para cubrir su préstamo. Gladys es una persona responsable, dedicada y trabajadora que se preocupa por sacar adelante a su familia.

In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

It's not Texas who would/should be scared - it's the Pac 10. Texas has bulldozed and bullied through each conference they've been in. Wherever they go, they will ultimately end up with the power. They are not a revenue sharing type of school. They will ultimately run the show in whatever conference they end up in.
What I wonder about is who's coming into the Big 12 after this comes to pass?
Let's say for discussion sake, Texas, Colorado, Nebraska, and Missouri leave(most common names thrown around).
We're back to a Big 8 number! Do some Texas schools or Arkansas come in or do some Mounatain West Schools join?
I'm not going to be entirely unhappy to see some of the schools who'd go be off our schedule.
Here's the full read on the article.

I recently bought a Linksys EA2700-RM router for my home. I have set up the 5GHz network, the 2.4GHz network and the Guest network.
My 5GHz network is for highest priority devices, the 2.4GHz network is for lower priority connections (nothing on this network yet) and the guest network is for friends who visit.
Since I want to guard my high priority network, I enabled a MAC filter (whitelist) using the router settings I accessed over the browser. However, when a friend tried to connect to my guest network, she was unable to do so (failing to connect to the guest network and to the 2.4GHz network). She later connected to my 5GHz network after I added her MAC address to the filter.
I don't see anything the documentation about being able to specify separate MAC filters for each of my networks. Does anyone know if this is even possible, and if so, how I might go about implementing it?

Nejjarine Complex : Michelin's recommendations
This area, one of the most attractive in old Fez, was restored with support from the Fondation Mohammed Karim Lamrani for the Nejjarine Complex. At the far end of this well-proportioned square stands the fondouk Neijarine (late17C, housing theNejjarine Museum of Wood Arts and Crafts), whose monumental and highly decorated door is topped by a magnificent canopy. To the right is the famous Nejjarine fountain, a true "altar to water" in a pretty setting with zellige tiles. Even farther to the right is the Nejjarine Souk (for carpenters) exuding a sweet smell of cedar wood.

Vampire Diaries Author Now Writing Fan Fiction For Her Own Series
Via the Wall Street Journal:
When Alloy Entertainment fired L.J. Smith from the popular young-adult book series "The Vampire Diaries" and replaced her with a ghostwriter three years ago, a civil war broke out among fans. One camp swore fealty to the characters and embraced the new books, which still feature Ms. Smith's name prominently on the cover as the series' creator. The other, more vocal faction sided with Ms. Smith and boycotted the ghostwritten novels.
"I would not read those books if they were the last books on earth," said Christina Crowley, a 35-year-old substitute teacher in Riverview, Mich., and a staunch L.J. Smith fan. "I didn't want to read her characters written by someone else."
Now, in one of the stranger comebacks in literary history, Ms. Smith is independently resurrecting her stories about the adolescent undead. She's publishing her own version of "The Vampire Diaries" digitally on Amazon, as fan fiction, creating a parallel fictional universe that many hard-core fans regard as more legitimate than the official canon.
The business aspect of this story is fascinating: The Vampire Diaries series is still being published with Smith's name prominently featured on the book covers, and Alloy after firing her is semi-promoting her fanfiction because they get a cut of the proceeds, thanks to the widening copyright loophole that Smith is using through Amazon Worlds. Shorter version: all writers are doomed. [WSJ]

"The Guitar and the Gallows" is an eerie collection of guitar themed photography by Bryan K. Warsaw. The coupling of his images and written verse combine to create a mysteriously unique, and often ominous atmosphere, reminiscent of rustic times long past when superstitions governed the lives of peasants and noblemen alike.
"The guitar and the gallows,
conjoined as one
branded heretics
beneath witchfinder's sun"
Bryan Warsaw lives on a farm in central Illinois where he works full time as a research tech for the University of Illinois and also helps his dad farm corn and soybeans. His loves and interests include his God, his friends and family, music, playing gutar, building electric guitars, gardening, photography, writing poetry, the outdoors, and anything to do with the paranormal. More of his photography can be viewed and ordered at bryanwarsaw.ifp3.com

The Conduct of Monetary Policy
In this essay at the CATO Journal, Kevin M. Warsh writes that the Federal Reserve's independence is essential to the conduct of monetary policy. But while the Fed is independent within govern- ment, it is not independent of government. The grant of authority to the Fed comes from Congress, to which the Fed is ultimately accountable. In my view, the Fed was granted significant powers by Congress, but those powers were not unlimited. The grant of author- ity was constrained. So by my measure, the Fed is a powerful institu- tion, but a bounded one.
The limits on the Fed in the conduct of monetary policy—that is, limits in the grant of government powers and in the efficacy of its actions to facilitate economic growth—are too often forgotten in Washington. We should acknowledge and understand these limits, not seek to manage or circumvent them.
Many leading econometric models used by central bankers, and promoted in the academy, suggest that the more the Fed pushes down long-term interest rates, the more that policy actions can be deployed to grow GDP, thereby maximizing employment and mini- mizing the output gap. The law of diminishing returns, however, applies to financial markets and the real economy, and some leading models are unable to account sufficiently for this nonlinearity.

From Qatar with Love: Designed by the Superstar Italian Architect Renzo Piano, and Towering over the South Bank of the Thames, London's New Skyscraper, the Shard, Is, at 310 Metres, the Tallest Building in Western Europe. Backed by Qatari Financing, the Steel and Glass Masterwork Is Seen as a Symbol of the Gulf State's Growing Financial and Political Power
Kan, Charlotte, The Middle East
Glistening in the London cityscape on the South bank of the Thaines, close to many historical attractions, the Shard is the British capital's new iconic landmark, and the centrepiece of the regenerated London Bridge Quarter. The pyramid-shaped, 72-floor tower is a mixed-use development that will be inaugurated by Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassem bin Jabor Al Thani, Qatar's Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Britain's Duke of York on 5 July. Visitors that day will be able to discover the Shard's 27 floors of offices, three floors of fine dining restaurants, an 18-floor, five-star Shangri-La hotel with 200 "luxuriously-appointed rooms", as well as "an exclusive collection of apartments".
The Shard is a unique project, developed by London-based property developer the Sellar Group, and financed by the State of Qatar, which is a 95% investor. Sheikh Abdullah bin Saoud Al Thani, Governor of Qatar Central Bank and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Shard Funding Limited, said that the new skyscraper is "an enduring symbol of the close ties between Qatar and the United Kingdom and joins a broad investment portfolio that highlights the synergy between our countries, pointing out that the relatively fast completion of this project is a significant milestone".
Qatar says its investment in the Shard also embodies the "Qatar 2030" vision, the state's road map to diversify its oil- and gas-reliant economy. It is one of several investments made by the Gulf state in London's sought-after real estate market. Qatar also recently financed the redevelopment of the Chelsea Barracks, located only a few miles upstream from the tower, in yet another illustration of the growing appetite of the Qataris for prestigious UK projects.
Jonathan Lawrence, who advises on Islamic finance transactions at law firm K&L Gates in London, believes Qatari investments in the London real estate market make a lot of financial sense, as they enable the Gulf state to invest in tangible, value-holding assets. However, he also sees it as a way for the Gulf state to exert some sort of political or cultural influence. "There has also been an element of Middle Eastern investors exercising their 'soft power' and seeking to spread influence by investing in high profile real estate projects and world-famous hotels and office buildings," he answers, when asked to explain why Gulf states like Qatar seem so keen to snap up London's 'hot' real estate projects. More proof that the Gulf state may use the Shard for "soft diplomacy" purposes is a recent scoop from Reuters, according to which Qatar-based broadcaster Al Jazeera is in advanced talks to move into the skyscraper. The TV company is currently headquartered in Knightsbridge, not far from Harrods, the luxury store also owned by Qatar. This is not merely a coincidence, according to many observers.
Long historical relationship
Dr Kristian Coates Ulrichsen, research fellow at the London School of Economics, notes that Qatari investors like to finance projects in the British capital due to the close relationship between the two countries, whose respective royal families are said to get on extremely well. …

Mouse On Daisy
This past week flew by, and here it's Saturday already! Looking forward to the long weekend, are you? Jen has a really cool Sketch For You To Try this week AND a goody bag up for grabs, so I hope you'll be able to play along! Take a look at the sketch, Jen's sample, and guest designer Lorelie Kim's sample, at i{heart}2stamp. Also making samples are Amy Rohl, Kelly Lunceford, Leigh O'Brien, and Susan Liles. You probably saw on Jen's blog last week that Carole stepped down. We'll miss her!
For my sample, I've used an adorable Stampavie image, Mouse on Orange Daisy, illustrated by Tina Wenke. Stamper's Dream carries a wide assortment of Stampavie images. This particular one is sold out, but you can see other Tina Wenke images HERE and all the other Stampavie illustrators HERE. I colored with Copics and Prismacolors and popped up the daisy and mouse, the ladybug, and the bird for some extra dimension. I also added some ivory FlowerSoft to the other flowers, so they'd look like dandelions.
Have you seen all the new goodies at Stamper's Dream? You know I have paper issues, so I'm particularly itching to get my inky fingers all over Cosmo Cricket's new Nutmeg Collection and Webster's Pages Holiday Collection and Sweet as Cherry Pie. And check out the Say It In Pearls and Say It in Studs from Prima. I've never seen anything like these - gorgeous!
I received a question recently about how to color with both Copics and Prismacolors. I start with the Copics and then when I'm finished with those, I go back and work with the Prismacolors. As I recall, you shouldn't color over Prismacolors with Copics because the wax in the pencils can mess up your markers, so start with the markers, then move to the pencils. I like to use Prismacolors for skies and any other time when I'm trying to fade to white. I find I have much better control with pencils for the fading.
Speaking of questions, I've been bad lately about answering them - I'm sorry! A Q&A is coming soon - I promise.
Thanks so much for visiting!
Stamps: Mouse on Orange Daisy (Stampavie)
Paper: Papertrey Dark Chocolate and Vintage Cream, Stampin' Up Real Red, Neenah Classic Crest Solar White, October Afternoon dp (green grid), Jillibean Soup dp (green paisley), K&Co dp (blue)

I have failed as an author.
Your comments are seven times more hilarious than my fic is xD I laughed out loud! Thank you, guys! Really!
Post Office Buddy: yeah, I giggled to myself when I wrote that "by the way" in. I just couldn't leave such a great chance unused. I'll correct the mistakes you pointed out ("intepependent" cracked me up. How could I have written a word like that? :laugh: ) and go on writing the first chapter. You can think of that by-the-way as a tribute to your parody, also. And all the upocmonign by-the-ways too.
icomeanon6: I've read your parody, and I kinda love it, so i really appreciate any praise from you xD Thank you very much indeed! I will try to live up to your expectations!
Hippy: Yeah... That reminds me: my point here isn't necessarily insult badfic writers, but more like be as a mirror to them. Sometimes I have realized my own stupidity only when I've seen it from a bit further, if you know what I mean. Also, writing this is serious entertainment for me and I hope it is for. you.
Oh, but Japanese-using non-Japanese-speaking fangirls I do want to mock as much as I can. If any of them are reading this, I have this to say to you: don't use Japanese when you can't. Just don't. Please.

Dell U2711: How much of a problem...
is the anti-glare coating? I keep reading very conflicting opinions about how intrusive it can be. I need the ability to edit photos AND be able to do a lot of reading from the screen of normal text sizes so I need a monitor able to be very clear for both purposes. Your experiences will be helpful in making a decision. Thanks!

There's a very specific breed of NBA fan that populates the stands of Cox Pavilion at Las Vegas Summer League. This group is undyingly loyal, incredibly knowledgeable about the game its history and occasionally lacking in the self-consciousness -- or at least self-awareness -- that compels the rest of us to check certain social impulses.
Dan Steinberg was in Vegas. He described the menagerie of Wizards fans (with pictures!) he found there, and one particularly hilarious episode that included Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy:
I was sitting next to Clippers Coach and GM Mike Dunleavy, asking him a few questions, when a Wizards fan I've met once or twice came by. He was wearing an old-school Bullets t-shirt with a montage of photos from the glory days splattered across the front. He proceeded to stand directly in front of Mike Dunleavy and to ask me a few questions about the Wizards.
It was really one of the better moments of my career. I mean, just plumb in front of Dunleavy, with a giant photo of Wes Unseld on his shirt, asking me questions about the Wiz. Finally, Dunleavy asked this Bullets/Wizards fan whether he might move, so that he could, you know, see the basketball game.

Household Leverage and the Recession
Thomas Philippon, Virgiliu Midrigan
NBER Working Paper No. 16965
A salient feature of the recent U.S. recession is that output and employment have declined more in regions (states, counties) where household leverage had increased more during the credit boom. This pattern is difficult to explain with standard models of financing frictions. We propose a theory that can account for these cross-sectional facts. We study a cash-in-advance economy in which home equity borrowing, alongside public money, is used to conduct transactions. A decline in home equity borrowing tightens the cash-in-advance constraint, thus triggering a recession. We show that the evidence on house prices, leverage and employment across US regions identifies the key parameters of the model. Models estimated with cross-sectional evidence display high sensitivity of real activity to nominal credit shocks. Since home equity borrowing and public money are, in the model, perfect substitutes, our counter-factual experiments suggest that monetary policy actions have significantly reduced the severity of the recent recession.

The law says that a person's eligible needs must be met by the council. A council can do this either by arranging for support services to be provided directly, or by giving the service user a personal budget. This means the service user is allocated a sum of money for their services so they have more choice and control over the services they get. Some people have direct payments, which are actual cash payments with which they can buy the services they want.
There is no law that mentions personal budgets; they are simply a government policy. If a person has a personal budget the council still has a duty to meet their needs, and if their personal budget is not enough to get the support they need the council has a responsibility to do something about it.
Because the government wants everyone to be on a personal budget, many councils are switching people to this arrangement. They should only do this if they have fully involved the service user and supported them to get the most out of their personal budget, but in some cases people are not being given much choice or support. This goes against the very reason personal budgets were created.
It is important to note that a personal budget cannot be used as an excuse to make a cut - a person should continue to get the same level of support that they were getting before they switched to a personal budget. A person's personal budget must be enough to pay for the help they need - if it is not, the local authority has effectively cut the person's care package without reassessing them and this is unlawful. Look at the care plan to see what support the council says the person needs and then compare this with what the person can afford with their personal budget. If the personal budget is not enough to get the support they need, they can complain. For information on how to complain see the Making a complaint section.
