do you hear that? it's the sound of a million retards turning tp into a bluff because they "have a nut blocker"
Although I certainly want to continue where I left off in my last entry, my intentions at the inception of this post are to be (relatively) brief and focused in a different direction than pondering the different vagaries of teaching, learning, and motivation. I received pretty strong and diverse types of private feedback regarding my last post, including student applications, engaging theoretical conversations, and even perhaps reminding a particular wayward student to keep reaching towards what he could (should??) achieve. No promises on when I'll put up the next part – it's the type of post where I feel I can't force myself to write it out – it has to just sort of flow unmoderated. I've worked towards it but as of now it sits unfinished alongside my poker theory essay – which has also sat unimproved for a week or so.
During the course of my standard week's TV watching I had an opportunity to watch High Stakes Poker. I don't know anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but if you haven't, it's on YouTube and I highly recommend it. There's been some very interesting hands this season so far, obviously capped by Tom's sick sick sick QT play in the second episode. I discussed it with Vivek and a few HSNL killers and all we ended up concluding was that Tom is the illest, haha. I don't really think I need to publish my comments on the hand itself, as they aren't really unique; if you want to know all there is to know about the hand, spoken by one of the coolest people around, check out Barry's analysis over on PokerRoad.
It does amuse me to hear "the masses" dissect this particular hand, mostly because so many otherwise intelligent people seem to have come to such rock-hard conclusions about it. Not only is it above my level, it's above the level of almost everyone I've spoken to about it. I suppose the gallery will always provide quasi-entertaining 'expert' critique, but this hand just seemed to bring out a weird brand of it. I wonder if the games will see a rash of this line being taken in the next few weeks/months, albeit misapplied and butchered, obviously.
I've been reading a lot lately. I am almost finished with the Analects of Confucius, an obvious partial inspiration for my last blog. I'm also reading a narrative of the Roman republic called Rubicon, a fairly interesting read, although I question exactly how many leaps are being silently taken by the author to create such a compelling, flowing manuscript of 2000 year-old history. The book is well-written, though, and I'm enjoying it, so I try not to let my discerning eye cast too much of a cloud over the experience. I have two other books I've been reading – one on the power of rhetoric, in the classic sense, and another book on religious theory. These will probably be the last four paper books I read in awhile as I am getting my hands on a KINDLE 2 (!!) soon, which I'm pretty excited about.
I've been playing a bunch of poker lately, and I still feel the drive to crush. I played a full schedule on Tuesday, including some smaller stuff I don't usually do, and ended up getting 3rd in a $200 turbo for $7500 and 2nd in the $100 2r1a for $5k. Both tournaments were rather insignificant, but it felt nice to overcome the recent runbad (admittedly I ran pretty good in both of these) to make some deep runs. In working towards my "learn 8 game" goal, I watched Daniel's 30-minute 8 game video on PokerVT the other day – it's pretty awesome, I highly recommend it. I wish he could have explained more 'I'd do this instead if ___" type things, as he leaves us to draw our own conclusions on that type of stuff, but it's definitely very solid. I'm hoping to record a video with him soon where I play the role of inquisitor and get to ask all those pesky "what if" questions that I think our audience wants to hear (or at least I do).
On the advice of Mr. Chen Kenichi, I started watching Damages so I'd have something to watch on Tuesday nights. I've already seen the first season, it's pretty awesome. The entire first season is available for viewing on Hulu – check it out if you haven't seen it yet, it's pretty damn good. I'm going to catch up on the second season before next Tuesday and then begin watching Oz.
As seems to be standard with me these days, it takes a very tiny spark to set off an enormous theoretical tangent that keeps me writing far later than I ought to be. Instead of ruining a perfectly good popcorn-ready blog with another lengthy theory post, I'm going to just cut the rest off here and post it separately in a few days. What is it about??

TEMPE, Ariz. - The No. 20/21 Stanford softball team dropped a 3-1 decision to Kentucky, Sunday, in the final day of the Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz. The Cardinal falls to 4-2 overall, while Wildcats improve to 4-2.
Freshman pitcher Kelsey Stevens threw the first complete game of her career. She allowed three runs on nine hits with a season-best 12 strikeouts, falling to 2-1 on the season. Kentucky freshman Kelsey Nunley picked up the win, improving to 3-0. She limited the Cardinal to just four hits and struck out eight batters.
Kentucky struck first, scoring a run in the top of the first inning. Short stop Kara Dill led off with a double to left field. Right fielder Alice O'Brien drove in the run with a single to right field.
The Wildcats added another run in the top of the third inning as first baseman Lauren Cumbess hit a sacrifice fly to right field to score Dill. Kentucky then increased its lead to 3-0 with an RBI single by designated player Nikki Sagermann.
Stanford finally got on the scoreboard in the bottom of the fifth inning to cut the lead to 3-1. Sophomore Cassandra Roulund reached on a fielder's choice and then advanced to second when catcher Jessica Plaza flew out to left field, and the Kentucky outfielder knocked down the fence. An RBI single up the middle by freshman Kaitlin Schaberg brought Roulund home.
The Cardinal threatened in the bottom of the sixth inning with two runners in scoring position and one out, but was unable to capitalize, stranding both runners.
The Cardinal returns to The Farm next week to play Santa Clara on Wednesday, Feb. 13 at 5 p.m. for its home opener. The Cardinal will then host the Stanford Invitational Feb. 15-17 at Smith Family Stadium. Admission to all home games is free.

World champion, Floyd Mayweather and his team were stuck on the tarmac at a New York airport for close to 5 hours trying to get to Washington, DC to announce his upcoming rematch with Marcos Maidana on September 13 at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, to be shown live on Showtime Championship Boxing. After the long wait at DAR Constitutional Hall, boxing fans in DC greeted the champ with a loud reception and Mayweather was very greatfull. "DC has the greatest fight fans in the country." He went on to chant his slogan about hard work and the fans chimed in like he was an old friend. In the late hour, the press conference was not as organized as they usually are. The fans were allowed to approach the stage and were very vocal....all in favor of Mayweather. When Maidana approached the micro phone, he simply thanked the fans for being there and sat down. Floyd had much more to say.
Mayweather Promotions, CEO, Leonard Ellerbe, a DC native was thrilled to be back home. "I love coming back home. This such a great boxing town that has had great champions grow up here." During the show, Ellerbe was grateful enough to introduce two of DC's former world champions in Sharmba Mitchell, a 2 time champion at the Jr. Welterweight division and Mark Johnson a member of the International Boxing Hall of Fame. A very nice gesture. "I am always happy to recognize champions from DC. I remember those guys representing their home town as true world champions."
Many of Mayweather fans did not see a reason to give Maidana a rematch. The first fight was a rough and tumble affair, that Floyd thought was a dirty fight on Maidana's part, from head butts (unintentional), to low blows, to tackling Mayweather almost out of the ring, to wanting to use a type of glove that was not approved by the champion. "My father always taught me that you fight hard, but you don't cheat to win and I don't cheat, I just win, 46 up and 46 down", says Mayweather. "The fans wanted this rematch", says Ellerbe. "The first fight was a good fight and both fighters will make adjustments and the best man will win." The first fight did not break any records for pay per view buys. Ellerbe would not give the exact numbers, but he did say the it fell into the top 10 all time, which Mayweather probable has 9 of them. "All I know is that 10 days after fight, Floyd and I went to bank to cash a check for 32 million dollars," recalls Ellerbe.
Ellerbe also would not reveal Mayweathers style in the rematch. "He did not run in that first fight" Many think Mayweather will return to his style of hit and run and not mix it up with Maidana. This will be a rare rematch for Mayweather. Please subscribe and follow DC's own Leonard Ellerbe as he helps guide Mayweathers final 3 remaining fights of a brilliant career.

The effect of fresh legs can't be overstated. Particularly not when it comes to New Orleans Saints linebacker David Hawthorne.
Hawthorne spent last year battling a variety of injuries that began in the preseason. First, there was a preseason knee injury that lingered into the beginning of the regular season. Then, hamstring issues kept him on the injury report through early November and out of five games.
After a banner 2011 season for the Seattle Seahawks, where he started 14 games and had two sacks, three interceptions, six pass deflections, a fumble recovery and 115 tackles, Hawthorne signed a five-year $19 million free-agent deal with the Saints prior to the 2012 season.
But due to injuries, he played only 11 games and finished with 38 tackles.
A year later, Hawthorne has slid into the role formerly occupied by Jonathan Vilma, who has missed the first seven games of the season while on short-term injured reserve. Hawthorne has started every game, compiling two sacks, a forced fumble and 37 tackles.
And there's no bigger reason than health. Hawthorne has appeared on the injury report just twice this season, for an ankle issue Wednesday and Thursday leading up to Sunday's game against the New York Jets.
"You can't do the things you need to do on a football field if you're not healthy," Hawthorne said. "And it has to do a lot with scheme also, just understanding the defense and believing in the defense. As a unit, it's worked out for us."
And the questions about his hefty contract have long since stopped with his productivity midway through the season. There was no one more disappointed than Hawthorne himself, who set out to prove himself again this season.
"Ultimately, it's why we play the game," he said. "Nobody comes in and says I want to be a backup. I don't think that's anyone's goal in life."
And now Hawthorne is displaying all the attributes that initially piqued the Saints' interest in free agency, said coach Sean Payton.
"He has been very consistent and quietly has done a very good job at the linebacker position," Payton said. "He has a good grasp of what we are doing from a scheme standpoint. He is a good tackler, but I think the biggest thing is just seeing his productivity now that he is back healthy and I think compared to a year ago where he was."
Quiet has aptly described Hawthorne, who didn't hesitate to talk about the team instead of himself.
"I'm just happy to be healthy and get my opportunity to go out there and do what I came out here to do, and that is help the defense and ultimately help the team," he said.
That was evident last week against the Buffalo Bills, when Hawthorne led the team with eight solo tackles, a sack and two quarterback hits.
Hawthorne set the tone on the first play from scrimmage when he delivered a jarring hit on Bills quarterback Thad Lewis that caused him to lose his grip on the football, which Junior Galette recovered.
With games like that, it's not surprising the frustration from last season has ebbed away.
"I think everybody in this locker room has had that moment where they just aren't quite right," Hawthorne said of last year. "And due to my injuries and the position and all of that, things didn't work out. But I think I just kept my head down and got back to doing what I know how to do."
Together, the linebacking tandem of Hawthorne and Curtis Lofton have helped the Saints to a 6-1 start. Lofton, who leads the team with 55 tackles, was tied with Hawthorne with eight total tackles against the Bills.
"The main thing about Dave is that he's completely healthy, so he can showcase what he can do," Lofton said. "Last year, it was one thing after another. It was his hip, his knee, his hamstring. ... He never got to play 100 percent. This year ... he's just playing great. I love playing with him.
TOON'S HOMECOMING: Saints receiver Nick Toon doesn't have too many memories of his father Al Toon's playing days with the Jets. He was 4 when his dad retired in 1992.
"I was young," Nick Toon said. "Really my most distinct memory from that time point in my life is being down on the field with my dad during his final game, which is kind of a cool memory. ...
"But most of my memories from when I was young was being around the Jets facility, going to pick him up from work."
Al Toon's career with the Jets spanned from 1985 to '92, when he earned three Pro-Bowl berths and was a three-time All-Pro selection in addition to 1986's AFC Player of the Year.
In 2011, he was inducted into the Jets' Ring of Honor, which was the last time Nick Toon attended a Jets game.
Having a successful parent in the same sport and at the same position could be a lot to live up to, but the younger Toon doesn't think of it that way. Toon said his dad always says the game is all about having fun.
"He's always been a father first," said Nick Toon. "He's never been a coach before a father."
But of course, that doesn't mean he doesn't aspire to be on the same career path as his dad.
"He was a great player, anything I can do to be like him," said Nick Toon.
VILMA ON TRACK: Vilma is eligible to be activated this weekend against the Jets. The Saints have until the Monday following next week's game against the Dallas Cowboys to make a decision whether or not to promote him to the active roster.
Payton was mum about Vilma's timetable to return to the field. Vilma, who has dealt with prolonged knee issues that required preseason surgery, has been practicing since last week. He has not appeared on the injury report.
"He's doing well. He's getting reps," Payton said. "It's just a matter of getting back into football-playing shape. He's someone who is a quick study so he knows what we're doing."

Judge Suggests Chumley's Opponents 86 Their Lawsuit
It had been open for 70-something years before the 2007 closure, after all.
The saga that began in 2007 with a partial wall collapse that forcibly closed Chumley's has since spanned several delays and setbacks, including a lawsuit filed by neighbors to thwart the reopening, but now it seems as though the city's most famous speakeasy might have a sound legal opinion on its side. New York State Supreme Court Judge Barbara Jaffe urged the neighbors to settle out of court, saying it's unlikely that their fears of "drunk and loud tourists" and other random debauchery are really sufficient to constitute any significant opposition to the establishment's bid to regain its liquor license.

Incidents with the Killer of Lefthand Canyon cyclist grows
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
The recent article on the Fatality of cyclist in Lefthand Canyon has caused others to point out their own incidents with this guy. It is becoming very clear that this incident was not his first or second serious confrontation with cyclists.
ElevationOutdoors reports of 2 cyclist getting into a fight with Lovan back in 2003.
He then demanded Loven exit the truck, which he did. The pair continued their argument and Mohan eventually threw a punch, hitting Loven in the face.
"At that point, he proceeded to beat the shit out of me," Mohan says. "The guy's 6'3?, 220 lbs!"

maybe because cyclists are all over the road and most don't heed any safety etiquette at all? Rules of the road are rules of the road, I ride bikes as well, but take a drive up there on a Saturday, half of these riders act as if they own the road and show no respect at all. IMO it goes both ways.

American Student Assistance reports that 60 percent of university and college students borrow money to cover education costs. Since student debt can hurt your ability to get other credit lines, which in turn can slow the economy, there are provisions for pardoning or reducing the burden of old student loans. They include income-based repayment and support for public service workers and the disabled.
Public Service
The federal government pardons some public service workers' student loans as a way of encouraging participation in the sector. The Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, for example, is open to all public workers including police and fire department personnel, public defenders and non-profit sector employees. It allows those with high balances relative to their income to have the rest of the loan cancelled after 10 years of service. The Teacher Forgiveness Program pardons teachers' student loans after five consecutive years of working full time in low-income elementary or secondary schools. The military also has student loan forgiveness programs depending on rank.
Purchasing Power
According to Congressman Hansen Clarke (D-Mich.), excessive student loan is impeding economic growth. Many individuals with excessive repayment burdens are unable to start businesses, invest or buy homes. The Student Loan Forgiveness Act was introduced to remedy the problem. Under the Act, student loans are forgiven after 10 years of continuous repayment at a rate of 10 percent of an individual's discretionary income.
Payment Cap
Individuals who have been paying without default qualify for student loan forgiveness after 20 years through participation in the federal government's Income-Based Repayment Plan. The program allows individuals to save because it caps student loan repayments at 10 percent of annual discretionary income, which is the amount left over after taxes and basic expenses. The debt is waived after 20 years whether or not the entire loan balance has been cleared. However, this option is not open to defaulters.
Disability Provisions
Total and permanent disability also justify forgiveness of old student loans. Individuals who submit certification from a physician that they are totally and permanently disabled and are unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity, veterans and recipients of Social Security Disability Insurance qualify for the pardon. Submitting supporting documentation to the U.S. Department of Education allows them to be relieved from repaying their student loans. Death of the borrower student or the parent who borrowed on his behalf -- and in some instances, bankruptcy -- also serve to waive the student loan.

In Webster's dictionary lust is defined as:
a strong feeling of sexual desire OR a strong desire for something.
Is this is the same as the Greek and Hebrew definitions? If so, is lust always sin or is lust sometimes acceptable?
In Webster's dictionary lust is defined as:
Is this is the same as the Greek and Hebrew definitions? If so, is lust always sin or is lust sometimes acceptable?
closed as off-topic by El'endia Starman♦ Sep 19 '14 at 11:54
This question appears to be off-topic. The users who voted to close gave this specific reason:
Yes, in a simple form and a more complicated one.
I do not often like to refer to the Greek (mostly because I know little about Greek) but in this case I think we need to.
One word in the original language which you are probably referring to as 'lust' is this. Greek word
By looking at the various tenses of the word in different contexts we can probably be in a position to answer the question more objectively.
First, using the ESV passions (in each case this seems to be used with the implication of evil passions:
Next desires (this is mostly used for evil desires but sometimes just neutral desire of even a holy one:
Other examples:
The ESV translates this word using 'lusts' in only a few instances all related to strong sexual desire outside of marriage. Other English translations often use the previous 'desires' as lusts also
Complete listing in ESV version:
Sometimes it is translated as covet (basically a discontented desire)
Lust is a term when denoting an evil impulse assumes a desire not derived out of love for God. As the bible defines good behavior as deep love for God from which all other desires should stem, lust is explained by a strong contrary desire to love for God.
There is deeper doctrinal aspect to the Biblical explanation of this: Humans are born dead with evil desires as punitive justice for the sin of Adam extended to all. By faith in Christ they are regenerated internally from sin and death to love and life. Having new life and thus new love for God as a result of being declared righteous by grace apart from moral deeds, they have a dual nature. Consequentially a believer has strong holy desires as well as remaining sinful desires of the old life inherited through Adam. This indwelling sinful nature lusts against the new nature and they are at war with each other. Therefore lust is a remnant of any desire stemming from the old nature of Adam under the curse of God's law for his sin imputed to all. Any desire from that nature is the lust of the flesh. It is sinful because human nature is contrary to God's nature under His punitive justice. It knows nothing of love for God. Being a Christian is first obtaining new inward life in Christ and inwardly dying to the 'fleshly' life inherited from Adam. Then upon the death of the body, the entire evil nature inherited from the curse of Adam's sin will be gone, along with all its desires forever.
Catholic perspective: always wrong/bad, not always sinful.
Pertinent numbers in the Catechism of the Catholic Church:
2514 St. John distinguishes three kinds of covetousness or concupiscence: lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life. [cf. 1 Jn 2:16]. In the Catholic catechetical tradition, the ninth commandment forbids carnal concupiscence; the tenth forbids coveting another's goods.
2515 Etymologically, "concupiscence" can refer to any intense form of human desire. Christian theology has given it a particular meaning: the movement of the sensitive appetite contrary to the operation of the human reason. The apostle St. Paul identifies it with the rebellion of the "flesh" against the "spirit." [cf. Gal 5:16,17,24; Eph 2:3]. Concupiscence stems from the disobedience of the first sin. It unsettles man's moral faculties and, without being in itself an offense, inclines man to commit sins. [cf. Gen 3:11; Council of Trent: DS 1515].
From a catholic perspective, therefore, lust is always wrong/bad. Whether it is sinful depends on full knowledge and full will, for Catholics, a matter for the confessional.
[E.g., you, a person, and another passes before you dressed to appeal to the lower (now rebellious after original sin) instincts. Those instincts spontaneously combusts. One does not commit a sin if one, saying a prayer, averts one's eyes and rejects those base instincts. But as said above, for Catholics, the judgment belongs to the confessional.]
@Mike has a great answer, but I think I'll expand on the sexual aspect of it. Why is sexual lust a sin?
Because desiring someone other than your spouse is contrary to God's eternal committal nature. The relationship between a husband and wife is suppose to reflect the relationship between Christ and the church.
The very definition of sin is "to miss the mark", and since the mark is Christ, and to lust is to do something Christ wouldn't do, to lust is to sin.
It would be a sin for the church to desire someone other than Christ, and it would be a sin for Christ to desire someone other than his church, his bride. To want someone sexually without committing to them for life is to want them for selfish reasons. Christ loves unselfishly.
The true definition of lust is to have such an intense or strong desire that it causes one to violate the rights of others. Lack of self control and reason. It is never a sin to have a strong desire to do good things in life, like making the world a better place. Or having desires to serve others in God's name. It is when one places their desires in a position where it causes one not to put God first, or with his children. And causes one to lose all control of his or her senses. Like love. Love has the same effect as cocaine. Where if the person loses love of another, they don't want to eat or sleep. Or they defy or disrepect their parents for sake of loving another person. This is lust. It is mention in the bible that for the LOVE of money is the root of all evil. That means a person places money higher than God, themselves or others. There is no sin for wanting money and having sensible control with money.

whether it's about desiring sex with someone who is not one's spouse, or whether it's about sexually objectifying any person of the opposite gender (or the same gender if that's one's sexual orientation), attitudes behind that is sin. appreciation of sexual beauty need not be this objectification. desiring to have sexual fulfillment need not be this objectification.
looking at it as a heterosexual male, i would say that the sin is when, in a man's mind, women are toys to be played with. but looking forward to sex with one's spouse (or soon-to-be-spouse) is normal. not sin.
James 1: "where lust leads to sin but is not itself sinful." So if you don't act on lust, say you don't actually cheat on your wife, it is not a sin itself. But if you act on it and try to sleep with that person, then yes of course it is a sin. How would anyone dating someone not 'lust' after them? How can any person not have a lustful thought at times seeing a very attractive person walk by? Yes we are human and make mistakes, but this quote from James as interpreted seems to make sense, that while certainly frowned upon lust by itself is not a sin?

Niagara Falls
For two hundred years it's been attracting tourists—and tourist traps
September 1997 | Volume 48, Issue 5
—Frederic D. Schwarz
Other waterfalls may be higher or have greater flow, but that's not the point. Niagara Falls has majesty—enough to rise above its sometimes uninspiring surroundings, to draw visitors steadily for two centuries, to survive losing half its water and being overexposed since the days of chromolithographs. You may forget which generals fought at Lundy's Lane, you may even forget the Criminals Hall of Fame (or wish you could, at any rate), but you'll never forget your first glimpse of the falls. With all the changes Niagara Falls has seen, that simple truth has always stayed the same.

The President is into sports. So as a season ticket holder as all VOTERS and Citizens are how has he done the passed 4 years.
In his first 2 years he was given a DEMOCRATIC controlled HOUSE with Pelosi as Receiver, and a DEMOCRATIC controlled SENATE with Reid as Tailback. He had full run and great offense as the American people gave him the odds on favorite of 53% of the vote.
He came into the game and was hired to quarterback the team to change with a message of hope and a new vision of open governance with no lobbyists in his administration, a promise of JOB GROWTH and strength through expanding the tax base.
In his first 2 years...he squandered the defensive line and ran one play....Obama health care proposal. That was promised to be equal coverage for all..from the President of the United States...to the Bum on the Street. ( President, Congress and Unions Opted Out)
He admits that he did not attempt to get a immigration reform bill even started... Obama was given the ball 3 times to get GITMO closed, and he fumbled all 3 TIMES... HE was throwing passes to Pelosi and Reid and getting intercepted
OBAMA's Shovel READY JOBSPLAY resulted in a touch back and a Foul called on the OFFENSE for illegal use of funds...Paying painters from Stimulus funds to put the Obama logo on existing road projects started by the past administration or State government.
Shovel ready was later admitted as a hoax.. just a mistake... there were no shovel ready projects.
In the first two years of OBAMA as Quarter back, we were attacked by TERRORISTS.. in NEW YORK and over DETROIT at Christmas. OBAMA'S Chief defensive coach explained that in both cases the system worked. Yet she and the defense team were no where to be found and had no idea why. The First time she was in SAN FRAN visiting friends for the holidays and the second time she was no where near New York...
And if it wasn't for a Dutch passenger wondering why this moron in the other seat was attempting to light his shoe on fire.. The plane would have exploded... The second time a STREET VENDOR who works in NEW YORK Times square tipped police to a sport utility vehicle left running........ It was almost a complete BLOW OUT in both those games with OBAMA'S coaches and team missing the goal line and giving up valuable yardage to the Terrorists.
AFTER that failure even OBAMA"S team was HOPING for a CHANGE in Coaching at the DEFENSE Position.
Democrats Join Calls for Napolitano to Step Down Following Failed Attack
Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/01/01/democrats-join-calls-napolitano-step-following-failed-attack/#ixzz27ydlEG9s
And later on afterwards...Napolitano strikes again telling the world and Obama she has failed to sop Illegals from Crossing the U.S. Border and that more Terrorists and criminals have been deported....................Meaning more have gained access since OBAMA became PRESIDENT / Quarterback..Than ever before.
Again without mention specific data, Napolitano said that in fiscal year 2010, more illegal aliens with criminal records were deported than ever -- a 70 percent increase from two years ago.
In November 2011 Quarterback OBAMA lost PELOSI as his receiver in the House... and lost most his defense that he had from 2009-20011. Leaving Lone Harry Reid in the Senate to help co-ordinate both defense and offense. HARRY REID may be remembered as that Democrat SENATOR ...
"Mr. Reid as predicting that Mr. Obama could become the country's first black president because he was "light-skinned" and had "no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." On Saturday, the senator issued a public statement apologizing for the remark.
WHAT A TEAM.... Democrats that throw everyone under the bus.... even their own quarterback.... WOW. And we want to give this guy another 4 year contract?
From 2011 to Present day... his results are the same... YES... HE GAVE THE ORDER TO TAKE OUT BIN LADEN... And what Quarter back would not complete a hailmary to an all open receiver?
The open remark about Netanyahu to Sarkozy... That hurts with Defense, almost giving the game plan to Al-Queda and Iran.
TAX breaks for G.E to move plants oversea's...Solyndra...Pelosi'sBrother getting a chunk of the STIMULUS for his company..NEPOTISM!
The border war with TEXAS, ARIZONA, California and all states that want Illegal Aliens to Go back to their homes and create their own democracy. The Supreme Court having to decide Obama CARE when 53% in America are against it.... Wow couldn't even carry his own water....
Americans want a Sovereign Country with land ownership rights..... Worst Foreclosure rates ever... largest debt for America..EVER.. A team that can't even get a budget to the Quarterbacks Desk...
But we have also seen ...FAST AND FURIOUS...Looks like a Cover up.. With Presidential influence and out come of expected Chicago land gangster style politics... 1 Person dead on our side!
And we have the Napolitano SEX DISCRIMINATION LAWSUIT....wow didn't see that one coming after all her previous great plays....
And lets see... We have the ARAB SPRING.... Now in it's second or third season, With cover up and blame passed to the intelligence community.... EVEN PANETTA, the clean up man, can see the obvious. THE LIBYA attacks had nothing to do with a VIDEO POSTED ON YOUTUBE.
So as a Quarterback on team USA...Obama dosen't have a very glowing record. Deceit, cover up, mis information, failed policy both foreign and domestic. No clear game plan...no follow through on objectives to move the ball forward to the goal of economic security, more AMERICAN JOBS, and open door policy as he claimed would happen...
So why should we expect anything different from OBAMA as a Quarterback on TEAM USA....
And he wants another 4 year contract?

Supermodels have been tweeting in honor of legendary agent, Eileen Ford, co-founder of the Ford modeling agency, who died at age 92 at a hospital in Morristown, New Jersey.
Together with husband Jerry, Eileen Ford opened Ford Models in the late 1940s in a partnership that would forever shape the future of modeling in the fashion industry. Ford is credited with discovering many well-known models of the 1970s including Cheryl Tiegs, Beverly Johnson, and Christie Brinkley, and forging a path for highly paid talent to be coined by the term 'supermodel' in the '80s and '90s with her hand in the success of contracted models like Janice Dickinson, Christy Turlington, and Kathy Ireland.
Upon hearing the news of her passing, many top models took to Twitter to express their memories of their mentor and friend.
Cheryl Tiegs wrote, 'I lost one of my best friends, but she is now with Jerry. I will miss her. I love her very much.'
Christy Turlington said, 'Proud to have known this inspiring woman. Goodbye to a wonderful business woman, mentor, mother and agent.'
And Christie Brinkley posted, 'I was lucky to call Eileen Ford my agent. She was the best in the business. She saw something in me and with her brilliant business acumen, her knowledge,experience , and personal touch she took me from Malibu surfer girl and guided my career thru covers and contracts to places I never imagined like the Broadway stage!'
Some of Ford's early clients included actresses Jane Fonda, Ali MacGraw, and Candice Bergen, as well as a young Martha Stewart. With U.S. offices in New York, Miami, Los Angeles and Chicago, the Ford roster has also hosted child models who would later become Hollywood stars like Brooke Shields (signed at age 8), Ashley Tisdale, Lindsay Lohan, and Natasha Lyonne of Orange is the New Black.
Eileen Ford herself worked as a model prior to opening the agency while pregnant to earn extra money. Within the first year, the Fords had grossed $250k and were on their way to becoming a globally recognized modeling franchise.

There was continuing coverage in the papers on Wednesday on Baroness Warsi's visit to the Holy See as head of a British delegation comprising of seven government ministers.
Her speech in full can be read here.
Rev Dr Giles Fraser, former canon chancellor of St Paul's Cathedral, wrote in The Guardian reflecting on the unspoken implications of the call for "Defending Christianity" in our society in ways that "becomes code for defending Britain against Muslims."
He wrote:
"…why is it that intolerant religion and intolerant anti-religion are increasingly taking centre stage in our national debate? In the one corner The Richard Dawkins (anti-faith) Foundation is wanting to tell people who call themselves Christians that they really aren't Christians at all – as if Richard Dawkins were the ideal arbiter on this subject.
"And in the other corner, the likes of Lord Carey (busily promoting his new book) and Eric Pickles are complaining bitterly that Christians are being victimised and pushed out of the public square. Yesterday, chair of the Conservatives Lady Warsi warned that a "militant secularism" was taking hold. This, too, is nonsense. Suddenly, debates over religion are getting nasty, with both sides beginning to look more and more like each other: both angry, both agreeing that Christianity has to be literally understood and evangelically expressed in order to count as the real thing.
"Richard Dawkins's claim that he regards Islam as "one of the great evils in the world" is the very epicentre of the new atheist credo. Again, many conservative Christians would share this view. Defending Christianity as a vital part of our national identity easily becomes code for defending Britain against Muslims, just as attacking religious belief in general neatly fits alongside a hostility towards Islam. The often unacknowledged common enemy is multiculturalism.
"The reason why those on the outside of this debate ought to care is that, as the experience of American politics abundantly shows, disagreements over religion have the capacity to grow into some ideological black hole, with a gravitational pull to suck all other debates into its orbit.
"The very idea of a liberal society was invented (again as a response to the English civil war) as a means of providing a political environment for very different people to live alongside each other in peaceful co-existence. At the heart of this liberal vision is the idea that the rule of law is to be applied to all, without fear or favour. Thus it applies to Abu Qatada as much as to those not wanting to hear prayers in Bideford town hall."
The Daily Telegraph printed letters in response to Lady Warsi's claims of a "militant secularization" taking hold in Britain. And The Independent ran a double page spread titled "No secularism please, we're British" in which Peter Popham argued, "…the fanaticism of the Islamists has provoked an equally intolerant and intemperate reaction from secular and other quarters, with the ban on headscarves in France and on mosque-building in Switzerland and the rabid anti-Islam rhetoric in the Netherlands; while in Britain it has produced a sudden lurch of opinion among our noisiest public intellectuals against any and all religion."

Mullings' legal team eyes CAS
Alando Terrelonge, the lawyer representing embattled national sprinter Steve Mullings, says in light of yesterday's ruling by members of the Jamaica Anti-Doping Commission (JADCO) disciplinary panel not to accept into evidence an affidavit by Mullings, it is very likely that the case could be taken to the Court of Arbitration for Sports (CAS).
According to Terrelonge, who along with Patrick Bailey are representing Mullings, they are looking at taking the case to CAS. They will base their argument on an unfair hearing, as Mullings in the affidavit explained to the panel that he could not attend the hearing due to the fact that he is being "set up", and he is "fearful for his life".
"Based on what has happened thus far, if the ruling is not in Mr Mullings' favour we will have to take the matter elsewhere ... to the Court of Arbitration for Sports," said Terrelonge at the end of yesterday's second day of the hearing, in which evidence was given by JADCO's third witness, JADCO official Cara Ann Bennett.
He added: "This would be primarily based on the fact that he did not get a fair hearing in Jamaica and there is a basis for appeal."
Terrelonge's statements came after the Jamaica Anti-doping Commission's three-man Disciplinary Panel of Dr Japheth Forde, Lennox Gayle and Peter Prendergast refused to accept the affidavit, based on the fact that, among other things, it included damning statements that needed to be verified by Mullings.
The panel also said that it was unfair for the lawyer representing JADCO, Lackston Robinson, not to be given the opportunity to properly cross-examine Mullings.
However, according to Terrelonge, in refusing the affidavit, the panel did not carry out its function properly, as per JADCO rules.
"I pointed out to the panel that they had a wide discretion to allow the affidavit, which explained why Mr Mullings could not be here," said Terrelonge.
"In addition, I indicated that the principles of fairness and natural justice would dictate that they ought to allow the affidavit to be taken into evidence, as the only person who stand to be prejudiced is Mr Mullings.
"They then deliberated for a few minutes, and said no ... and essentially that Mr Mullings should have been here."
Terrelonge further explained that to show that Mullings was not trying to avoid the hearing, he made an application to the panel to have his client appear via a laptop computer video-link.
"I protested the ruling and explained that I had taken my laptop to the hearing, and if needs be Mr Mullings is available via video-link, whereby he could be cross-examined, if necessary.
"The panel still maintained no ... that no application was made for that to be done. I then said to the panel that the application is being made now, and that there was no rule that stated a timeline to make applications. They, however, declined to entertain the idea," Terrelonge said.
The hearing, which saw JADCO calling on their control officer, Dr Paul Wright, and chaperone Dorel Savage to give witness on day one, is slated to continue next Wednesday.

Earn 10% profit in one month = 120% per year
How much profit the trader can make in a month? lets see how
If traders follow a simple strategy called Take small profits and do multiple trades which is explained in following example, the traders can easily double money in a single year. That is 10% per month equals 120% per year, which is more than double.
Lets take the following example
Taxes to pay for intraday trading
1. The Service tax is 10.36% only on brokerage.(Update July 2011- The service tax is reduced to 10.36% including education cess)
2. The STT (Security Transaction Tax) is 0.025% only on selling amount.
3. The Stamp duty on total turnover for a day which is 0.002%.
4. and finally you have to pay Regulatory charges on total turnover for a day which is 0.004%
No need to worry about these taxes as all these taxes will add up to very small amount at the end of the day compared to intraday profits. Lets see how in following sub sections
Welcome to Indian Share Market
Serving Since 2007
Free Technical Charts
Our Target
Contact us
Stocks for Investment
Learning Section
Useful Sites
The following example is calculated taking into consideration intraday brokerage rate as 0.03% for buying and 0.03% for selling.
Please note - Currently our intraday brokerage charges are 0.03% for buying and 0.03% for selling,
If you are interested to open the trading and demat account then please visit at
Suppose Trader bought Bharati Airtel at Rs.380 and quantity 100 so the total amount trader has to pay is Rs.380 x 100 = Rs.38,000.
Lets see how to calculate the brokerage and taxes.
The buying amount is Rs.38,000 (Rs.380x100 Qty shares)
Brokerage charges
0.03% as brokerage on 38,000 comes to Rs.11.40
Service Tax on Brokerage (service tax is applicable only to brokerage charges)
The service tax is 10.36%, so 10.36 % for Rs.11.40 comes to Rs 1.18.
Total charges the trader has to pay on buying amount is
The total brokerage + service tax which come to Rs.11.40 + Rs.1.18 =
Now lets calculate the Brokerage and Taxes on selling amount
Suppose If the trader sold Bharati Airtel at Rs.381 (profit of only Rs 1), Qty - 100 so the amount comes to Rs.38,00 (Rs.381 x 100 Qty shares).
So the trader got the profit of Rs 100.
Brokerage charges
0.03% brokerage on 38,100, comes to Rs.11.43
Service Tax
The service tax is 10.36% only on brokerage amount, so 10.36 % on Rs.11.43 comes to Rs 1.18.
STT (Service Transaction Tax) is only on selling amount. The STT is 0.025%.
The selling amount is 38,100, the STT comes to Rs.9.52.
Total charges the trader has to pay on selling amount is = Brokerage + service tax + STT
= Rs.11.43 + Rs.1.18 + Rs.9.52
Total amount you have to pay on buying and selling is (including Brokerage and taxes)
= Rs.12.6 (buying) + Rs.22.13 (selling)
Also you have to pay stamp duty and regulatory charges on total turnover.
- The stamp duty on total turnover for a day is 0.002% and Regulatory charges are 0.004%.
Stamp duty and regulatory charges are applied on total turnover of a day.
The total turnover is calculated by adding the buying and selling amount happened throughout the day.
In above example the Buying amount is 38,000 and selling amount is 38,100 which adds up to Rs. 76,100
Stamp duty is 0.002% and Regulatory charges are 0.004% which adds up to 0.006%
So on total turnover amount of Rs. 76,200 and the stamp duty and regulatory charges on that comes to Rs
So the total amount you have to pay for the trade of buying 100 shares of Bharati Airtel at Rs 480 and selling them at Rs 481 comes to
Rs 34.73 +4.57
(stamp and regulatory charges)
which includes brokerage charges and other all taxes.
The conclusion is, the trader paid Rs.39.30 (brokerage and taxes) while the profit earned is Rs.100.
So the Net profit is Rs 60.7 (
Rs 100 - Rs 39.3)
Rs 60.7 profit is earned by the trader in single trade by investing Rs 38,000
If the trader makes only 5 trades in a day then very big amount adds up at the end of the month.
And this strategy is called as do multiple trades and takes small profits.
Important note - Rs 1 movement in share price of Rs 300 to Rs 500 happens very easily for many times in a day. So select higher price shares for day trading so that you can take small profits and do multiple trades.
It is quite possible to get Rs 1 profit for Rs 380 share price compared to Rs 50 or Rs 100 share price. So take share price in the rage of Rs 300 to Rs 500 for trading.
Lets see how it will add up to hundreds at the end of a day
If trader makes only 4 trades in a day then the profit in day adds up to Rs 240 (Rs 60 per trade x 4 trades in a day)
Now Lets see how it will add up to thousands at the end of a month
In a month there are 22 trading days, (Saturday and Sunday are holiday for share market)
So, lets take 20 days for calculation.
Per day Rs 240 profit then for 20 days it comes to Rs 4800 by investing Rs 38,000
Lets see percentage wise returns
Trader earns Rs 4800 profit after investing Rs 38,000 so the percentage comes to 12.6% per month profit approximately.
Lets consider only 10% profit per month and
remaining 2.6% for losses per month
So the annually the returns will come to 12 months x 10% profit = 120%
Annual returns are 120 % (more than double)
How to make thousands in a day?
In above example we have seen how hundreds are made in a day, if trader just doubles the buying quantity that is instead of 100 shares if the trader buys 200 shares then the profits will also get doubled.
But new comers should be very careful, after getting months of experience and profits the trader can double the buying quantities. Day trading is very risky for inexperienced traders.
Trading on Margin Amount
In the above example the margin amount is not used but only the investment amount Rs 40000 is used.
Margin amount is the extra amount given by the broker to trade for a day.
Margin amount varies from broker to broker but generally broker provides 3 to 4 times margin amount.
Big Disadvantage of Margin amount
- If you use the margin amount then you have to square off your trades before market closes. Whether you are in profit or loss or else heavy penalty will apply.
Important Precaution

College Hockey:Day 2 Turnaround: College Hockey Fares Well On Saturday At NHL Draft
MONTREAL — College hockey quickly redeemed itself at the 2009 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday with 10 college freshmen-to-be becoming NHL property in the second round. The onslaught of college players came a day after only seven collegians were drafted in the opening round and none among the top 15 overall picks.
Leading the way on Saturday was Michigan recruit Chris Brown. Brown, who was ranked 30th among North American-born skaters, was selected sixth in the second round, 36th overall, by the Phoenix Coyotes.
Hometown favorite Alex Chiasson, a freshman-to-be at Boston University, was the second collegian selected on Saturday. The Dallas Stars made Chiasson, a 6-foot-3 right wing, their second pick of the draft and 38th overall.
Known for his stick-handling ability, Chiasson says he hopes to use Boston University to develop physically, hoping he can fill out his large, thin frame. He also said that the academics of the college game helped him decide to take the college route over major juniors.
"I'm an 'A' student and I think school is important for yourself," said Chiasson. "College teaches you more than just hockey and it gets you ready. It's a balance in life and I thought college was the best decision for me."
Minnesota recruit Zach Budish and Denver freshman-to-be Drew Shore were two players many thought had first-round potential. Both slipped to the middle of the second round with Budish becoming the 41st overall selection by Nashville and Shore heading to Florida as the 44th overall selection.
Shore admitted that not hearing his name called during Friday's opening round was stressful and finding any quality sleep overnight was next to impossible.
"It was a pretty disappointing night to sit there and watch every pick and people tell you that's where you should go," said Shore. "But today's a new day and I got picked so I'm pretty excited right now."
Boston College had the most players selected in Saturday's second round. Kenny Ryan (Toronto, 50th overall), Brian Dumoulin (Carolina, 51st overall) and Philip Samuelsson (Pittsburgh, 61st overall) all were selected within a 15-minute span.
Samuelsson, son of legendary NHLer Ulf Samuelsson, will look to follow in his father's footsteps with the Penguins. Ulf Samuelsson played five seasons for the Penguins between 1990 and 1995.
Other collegians selected in the second round included William Wrenn, 43rd to San Jose (Denver, incoming); Kevin Lynch, 56th to Columbus (Michigan, incoming); and Brandon Pirri, 59th to Chicago (Rensselaer, incoming).
Western Michigan's Kevin Connauton was the first current college player to be selected on Saturday when Vancouver drafted the defenseman in the third round with the 83rd overall pick. He was also one of the most significant jumpers, having originally been ranked 202nd by Central Scouting.
A total of 55 players with college ties were selected during Saturday's second through seventh rounds. In addition to the 10 picks in the second round, there were eight players selected in both the third and fourth rounds, nine in the fifth round, seven in the sixth round and 13 in the seventh and final round.

Tideswell Family History
Latest News And Updates
IMPORTANT NOTICE: NEW EMAIL ADDRESS: email@example.com Hello, and welcome to the Tideswell Family History
website. This website is the result of my 7 years of research into my Tideswell family history. Although the project is incomplete
and on going I have reached a point where the amount of further information I am able to find has slowed to a crawl. I therefore
came up with the idea of setting up a website and inviting other members of the greater Tideswell family to contribute any
information they may have found whilst doing similar research. Also by doing so I hope to stimulate an interest amongst any
Tideswells out there who may wish to begin to find out more about their own forefathers. However, be warned. If you want the
fun of finding these things out for yourselves then this site is not for you as I have already done the bulk of the research.
What I am mainly interested in is anecdotal
information. Photographs also would be most welcome; the older the better. Just be aware though that any photographs you may
wish to contribute will be published on this internet site and so you may wish to consider confidentiality if posting photogaphs
of living persons. I am also more than happy to be corrected if any of my research is erroneous and will happily answer any
queries you may have yourselves (if I can). Unfortunately all the information you may require is not
available on this website. Stored on my computer are all the family fact files listed on this site with information such as
dates and places of births and deaths, burial locations, parents, professions, known addresses, and where possible short histories
on individuals. All the information I have is freely available on the internet and at the various record offices, libraries,
etc. which I have visited. All I have in fact done is put it all together in one place on this website for people to access
easier. The good news is that I am more than happy to share all this information with you and will gladly e-mail the fact
files to you free of charge and with my compliments. If you are interested the e-mail address for this site is firstname.lastname@example.com Should you also wish for your queries to be placed on this site I will happily oblige. Again,
e-mail the above address.Like all family historians, I suspect, I began researching my
family tree by finding my grandfather on the 1901 census. This I did using the Ancestry.co.uk website,
and before I knew it I had over 100 names on my tree. I quickly realised that apart from these people there were many other
Tideswells living in the same areas I was researching and it struck me that these too must be related in some way. So I began
collecting information on all the Tideswells I came across. Then it occured to me that the name Tideswell is fairly uncommon
and there were not that many of us about. Would it therefore be possible to trace them all back to a Tideswell 'Adam &
Eve'? Sadly not so far, although other people doing similar research seem to suggest Warren de Tideswell as a likely candidate.
I must stress here that although I obviously took note of other people's research, I discovered (in my opinion) several
glaring mistakes. It would appear that other people have then accepted these findings as accurate and gone down the same wrong
path. It is for this reason that I try to always rely on my own research. If you navigate the
website you will find a page entitled 'Articles'. On this page I intend to post a series of articles (essays) about
different topics of interest to do with Tideswell family research. They are designed to stimulate interest and raise comment.
Should any of you out there wish to submit any essays of your own, feel free to do so. You will need to e-mail them to me
at email@example.com as I must insist on editorial rights to prevent any malicious content.This is my one and only attempt at a website so it is essentially
a 'no frills' effort. What's important is the information it contains. You should find it relatively easy to navigate.
Any suggestions for improvement will be graciously considered.WEBMASTER

Give a Gift Membership
With this gift of nature, Nature Conservancy magazine arrives all year long. Join
The Nature Conservancy announced today that a herd of 35 bison will be reintroduced onto Dunn Ranch Prairie in northwest Missouri this month.
The bison's grazing patterns and other behaviors are key components of grassland communities. The herd will shape the prairie, creating a range of habitats suitable for a wide array of native plant and animal species. Ecological processes that were lost when bison disappeared from the landscape will be restored, increasing native species diversity and improving habitat for grassland birds.
The bison will be managed in a safe, respectful manner which emulates natural herd structures as closely as possible. The herd originated from Wind Cave National Park, one of only two founding herds in the United States that were not crossbred with cattle. To maintain genetic diversity, bison will be swapped with other Conservancy herds on an annual basis.
With more than 25 years of experience in bison management, the Conservancy is well-prepared for the herd's arrival. The bison will be confined to the Dunn Ranch property using fencing that exceeds industry standards, and all bison will be routinely vaccinated and tested for disease.
Dunn Ranch contributes positively to neighboring communities. Visitors to Dunn Ranch patronize nearby hotels, restaurants, and other businesses. Equipment and supplies are purchased locally, and the Conservancy hires local contractors whenever possible. Additionally, although the organization is tax-exempt, the Conservancy voluntarily pays taxes for the Dunn Ranch property annually.
The Nature Conservancy is a nonprofit, nongovernmental, charitable organization. The bison reintroduction is privately funded through family foundations and individual contributions.
The bison reintroduction is the culmination of over a decade of extensive prairie restoration at the 4,183-acre Dunn Ranch Prairie. Native seedings, tree removal, invasive species control, and prescribed fires have produced dramatic results at the property. Dunn Ranch now boasts more than 300 native plant species as well as thriving populations of native birds, including bobolinks, Henslow's sparrows, sedge wrens, and northern harriers. Intensive efforts are ongoing to increase the greater prairie-chicken population.
After more than 160 years since bison last grazed Missouri grasslands, Dunn Ranch Prairie will once again be home to the iconic American Bison.
The Nature Conservancy is a leading conservation organization working around the world to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends.

The Same 5 Q's We Ask Everyone: Christine Martinez
The Luvocracy.com Creative Director confesses about compulsive hair twirling, a Shellac addiction, and her Lucky breakthrough
Christine Martinez: Hair twirling. I've been a compulsive hair twirler my whole life. I used to dismiss it as something every girl with long hair does, but it's probably tied to the fact that I'm an antsy person who always needs to be doing something with my hands. I'm hoping to break the habit before I become a permanent resident in split-end city.
TB: What's one beauty splurge you make on a regular basis and think all women should, too?
Martinez: Since my wedding last summer, I've become obsessed with Shellac manicures. There's nothing that bothers me more than chipped nails, and now I never have to worry about that again! It's totally worth the price to have gorgeous, shiny nails for two-plus weeks. I have to add a close second which is eyebrow threading. A girlfriend of mine convinced me to give it a try, and I'm happy to say that I haven't touched a pair of tweezers in over a year.
TB: What one product do you swear by?
Martinez: I was thrilled when I discovered Tarte BB Tinted Treatment 12-Hour Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 30 Sunscreen, $34. It's a product with a long name for a reason: it does everything! It's smooth, light, non-greasy, and makes my skin look fantastic all day. Hands down my favorite Luvocracy discovery ever! I highly recommend it.
TB: If you look back, what's one moment that changed your life?
Martinez: I launched my first company (LAMA) back in July 2008, and three months later Lucky Magazine featured LAMA as their new favorite web shop. I'll never forget how it felt to pick up the issue at the supermarket, flip through it, and see my little shop right there in a magazine I adored. I understood right then and there that I could create something people loved -- and that I could do it with very few resources (a few thousand dollars, no partners, and right out of my apartment). I knew I had to spend the rest of my life creating online spaces people wanted to visit again and again.
TB: If you were a nail polish, what color would you be, and what would you be called?
Martinez: I'm not afraid to admit that I am the quintessential girl (I love being a girl!) so I would definitely be pink. I'm a big fan of all of the women out there who aren't afraid to be the lovely people they are, embrace their feminine side, and kick some butt in otherwise male dominated industries like tech. So my color would definitely be called "Power to the Pink."

IMF Executive Board Concludes 2007 Article IV Consultation with SurinamePublic Information Notice (PIN) No. 07/56
May 21, 2007
Public Information Notices (PINs) form part of the IMF's efforts to promote transparency of the IMF's views and analysis of economic developments and policies. With the consent of the country (or countries) concerned, PINs are issued after Executive Board discussions of Article IV consultations with member countries, of its surveillance of developments at the regional level, of post-program monitoring, and of ex post assessments of member countries with longer-term program engagements. PINs are also issued after Executive Board discussions of general policy matters, unless otherwise decided by the Executive Board in a particular case. The staff report (use the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to view this pdf file) for the 2007 Article IV Consultation with Suriname is also available.
On March 21, 2007, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded the Article IV consultation with Suriname.1
Aided by favorable external conditions and an improvement in macroeconomic management, Suriname's economic performance has improved in recent years. Since 2002, the central government deficit has declined sharply, leading to a substantial decrease in public debt as a share of GDP. Monetary policy has focused on reducing inflation, while the central bank has become more independent. Backed by these policies, the exchange rate has remained stable since early 2004. As a result, real economic growth has averaged about 5 percent a year, while inflation has declined.
In 2006 macroeconomic performance was better than anticipated, benefiting from a continued favorable external environment. Real GDP is estimated to have grown by almost 6 percent, led by strong growth in exports and private investment. End-year inflation declined to below 5 percent from 16 percent in 2005, aided by tight credit policy by the central bank and a stable exchange rate. The external current account recorded a surplus of 5 percent of GDP, reflecting high international prices for alumina, gold, and oil. Net international reserves rose sharply, reaching two months imports of goods and services.
The central government recorded a small overall surplus in 2006, supported by strong growth in mineral-related revenues. The non-mineral deficit (the total deficit net of mineral-related revenues) declined by 2 percentage points to 7½ percent of GDP, reflecting both higher revenues and lower expenditure. Revenue collections were boosted by the liberalization of domestic fuel prices in late 2005, increases in selected excise taxes and a one-time dividend paid by the central bank. The lower expenditure resulted from a decline in capital spending in relation to GDP. Public debt declined to 30 percent of GDP by end-2006.
In the financial sector, deposits and credit to the private sector grew rapidly in 2006, while banking system soundness indicators (capital adequacy, nonperforming loans, and profitability) improved. However, nonperforming loans remained relatively high at 12 percent of total loans, reflecting mainly difficulties in state-owned banks. Financial dollarization remains high, with the share of deposits and loans in foreign currency exceeding 50 percent. The spread between lending and deposits rates remained significant at about 8 percentage points both for domestic and foreign currency transactions, owing partly to high reserve requirements. The central bank has been reducing the reserve requirement on domestic currency deposits to encourage intermediation in local currency.
The outlook for 2007 looks broadly positive. Real GDP is projected to expand by 5¼ percent, driven mainly by the non-mining sector, while inflation is expected to fall slightly to 4½ percent. The surplus in the external current account would decline to about 2½ percent of GDP owing to lower world commodity prices, but international reserves would still rise, helped by tight credit conditions by the central bank. The central government's overall balance would deteriorate somewhat compared to 2006, reflecting strong growth in the wage bill. However, public debt would continue to decline.
Executive Board Assessment
Executive Directors commended the authorities for the improvement in economic policies in recent years, which—combined with the rise in export prices—contributed to stronger economic performance in 2006. Directors particularly welcomed the authorities' commitment to keep strong policies in place.
Directors supported the authorities' policy stance and underscored that the key challenge in the period ahead is to enhance policy credibility by strengthening Suriname's medium-term policy framework. In particular, an explicit assessment of fiscal sustainability at the time the budget is considered would help manage spending pressures, especially in the face of volatile mineral-related revenues. In this context, Directors considered that a revenue stabilization fund would be a useful supplement, provided it is well-integrated into the budget and managed in an efficient and transparent fashion. Directors recommended distinguishing between mineral revenues and the non-mineral deficit in annual budgets to help assess fiscal sustainability. They also cautioned against crowding out capital spending and called for improved targeting of subsidies. Directors welcomed the continued decline in public debt and in this context most directors encouraged the authorities to reduce the ceiling on total public debt, while maintaining the ceiling on domestic debt unchanged to strengthen credibility in the medium-term fiscal policy framework.
Directors welcomed the improvement in banking soundness indicators. However, stronger prudential regulations would help manage the risks from the high financial dollarization and Directors suggested taking steps to deal with the high level of non-performing loans, including by improving management of state-owned banks. Directors also called on the authorities to strengthen the enforcement of legal provisions on anti-money laundering, and encouraged them to participate in the Financial Sector Assessment Program.
Directors encouraged the authorities to continue steps to unify the exchange rate. They emphasized that over time inflation expectations could be anchored by credible demand management, and recommended improving the monetary policy framework and increasing exchange rate flexibility in coming years.
Directors underscored the need to diversify the economy to sustain growth and mitigate its vulnerability to shocks. In this context, they welcomed the introduction of a new investment law and encouraged authorities to advance on the long-overdue civil service reform, with emphasis on reducing the size and improving the efficiency of the public sector.
Directors also urged the authorities to normalize relations with external creditors by settling existing arrears, which would improve Suriname's creditworthiness.

You know, I've always carried the 2.75" Federal Tactical HV 00Bucks in my saiga... pretty much wasn't even an arguement.
Today a friend asked me what he should get and while showing him I saw some 3" magnum 00Bucks.... Then I thought to myself... How come people don't use these for SD/HD? most LE ones are the 2.75" as well.
I mean, 9 pellets vs 15 pellets in one shot... Sounds like an obvious choice.
so I wanted to ask here... does anyone use 3" bucks for SD/HD? I think I might switch to that now. capacity is the same for me since I have a magazine for the saiga.

The estate consists of her house (the personal prop. being just the furniture,etc.). I am filing (w/sister's signed consent, of course ) to be Administrator.
The estate debts (I am in the midst of totaling) including funeral, costs of final illness (did not involve state medicaid), 4 credit cards, etc. are approximately 20% of the house value, and would therefore be able to be discharged by sale of property. (we are also exploring home loan/mortgage option)
In my particular case, it seems best that the required Bond in Mass. be WITHOUT surety.
This, IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY, will eliminate the necessity, cost, and delay of filing a LATER bond to cover the large penal bond (1.5 times the real estate value) to cover the sale of the property), when I must, as administrator, sell the property to discharge the debt.
By filing the bond WITHOUT surety, In my Mass. county, required publication and court backup will result in it being approx. 6+ weeks for me to receive my Papers of Administration.
QUESTION 1: Will taking the delay "up front" by filing for bond without surety now, ELIMINATE THE NECESSITY, cost (via surety company), and delay of obtaining a later required bond when I sell the property (or the asking of friends to sign for personal surety under the penal bond of 1.5 times real estate value, an imposition upon friendship I will not make, technical though it may be)
(addit. poss: Could I file with PERSONAL surety now (just nominal penal 1.5Xpersonal, friends agreed), get administration quickly, then get bond W/O surety at time of real estate sale, or is that either not allowed, or too time consuming at sale time?)
(ps pg1067-thank you for earlier advice,unfortunately "Death" stopped me short from following it)
