An estimated 80% of freelancers have a painful story or two about not getting paid, but it's rare that they can present a united front about their woes. But that's changed now, with the debut of the World's Longest Invoice, a project of the Freelancers Union.
To help draw attention to its efforts to pass the Freelancer Payment Protection Act in New York state, the Union has been asking anyone with unpaid bills to add a line item to its monster theoretical invoice. At the moment, the amount due is north of $3.8 million — and steadily rising. Do you have outstanding invoices of your own? Be sure to get them on there….

The Accidental Destiny of Ronald Coase
The death of Ronald Coase on Monday has brought forth a myriad of tributes to a man known for his deep insights into economics and law.
But Mr. Coase also had a self-deprecating side. A case in point is the autobiographical account of his life that he submitted to the Nobel committee when it awarded him its 1991 prize in economics.
It's worth reading in full, but one passage is particularly amusing as a display of wry humility.
Aged 11, I was taken by my father to a phrenologist. What the phrenologist said about my character was, I feel sure, determined less by the shape of my skull than by the impressions he derived from my behaviour. Out of the various printed summaries of character in his booklet, that chosen for "Master Ronald Coase" started: "You are in possession of much intelligence, and you know it, though you may be inclined to underrate your abilities." This printed summary also included the following remarks: "You will not float down, like a sickly fish, with the tide… you enjoy considerable mental vigour and are not a passive instrument in the hands of others. Though you can work with others and for others, where you see it to your advantage, you are more inclined to think and work for yourself. A little more determination would be to your advantage, however." In the written comments, the pursuits recommended were: "Scientific and commercial banking, accountancy. Also, horticulture and poultry-rearing as hobbies." Added were some comments about my character: "More hope, confidence and concentration required – not suited for the aggressive competitive side of business life. More active ambition would be beneficial." It was also noted that I was too cautious. It was hardly to be expected that this timid little boy would one day be the recipient of a Nobel Prize. That this happened was the result of a series of accidents.
WSJ's Stephen Miller notes in his obituary of Mr. Coase that when the University of Chicago economist looked back on his long life in 2012, he summed it up like this: "I've never done anything that wasn't obvious, and I didn't know why other people didn't do it."

undeterministic behavior when project or app template contains dotdir

This bug is minor and is not causing any problems in current release, but if you are interested:
I found a bug in function copy_helper() from django/core/management/base. This functions manages the copy process of project or app template and tries to avoid copying certain files and directories. But the method used to skip directories starting with dot character is wrong - it deletes from the array it is iterating on, thus behaving in a non deterministic way.

Good catch here. It is a minor point, but as you said, it's non-deterministic and could be a problem for some python implementations. Modifying iterators while in use is always a bad idea.
comment:2 Changed 6 years ago by PaulM
Just a further note: It looks like the existing code tried to solve this problem by using enumerate. Since enumerate is lazy, it behaves like a generator rather than creating the tuples immediately, and so the error remains.

Kelsey McNeal : ABC
Even zero-gravity doesn't make this any better.
Tonight is Motown/R&B night on Dance War and we're kicking things off with a Hairspray-inspired big ol' group number. It's all pretty much the expected, save for Bradley's painful James Brown-esque screech. Was that really necessary?
Drew Lachey tells us that the winning team will win a recording deal. OK, so I guess what that means is whoever survives this Dance War in the end will get a contract. But do they mean the entire team or just whoever is left standing? Will the winner be declared after the other team has been completely vanquished? What's the point of eliminating people one-by-one if it's a team competition?
Gah! Someone. Please. Explain.
Kelsey McNeal : ABC
The stage, the stage, the stage is on fire?
The Crazy One is combating Carrie Ann's criticism that he had no leads by charging Lacey with the task of singing Aretha Franklin. It's a hard song, but, as the backstage montage shows, it's the groups — *groan* — trust fall exercise that gives her trouble. For real? How much drama can this show manufacture?
During the live performance, Team Crazy One is not as horrendous as last week, but not great either. For the "girls" number (at least that's what I assume it is), only Lacey sings more than a brief mini-verse. Charity still can't sing, but Kelsey was impressive for the 2.2 seconds she sang solo. Carrie Ann gives it to them and calls out Crazy One for not letting Charity and Kelsey sing nearly enough. Crazy One just starts screaming "BALANCE?! BAAAAALLLLL-ANCE?!" until Drew Lachey calls for a ceasefire.
They replay last week's mic-malfunction. Zack says it best when he looks at the monitor and says, "His mic's out … dannnnnnngggggg."
Instead of a lame-o trust fall, Carrie Ann treats her team to a quick game of football. (So. Necessary.)
Team CA tackles (zing!) Papa Was A Rolling Stone for their first number. Now this team featured male and female solos. I'm. So. Confused. There's a lot of smoke on stage. Like seriously a lot. (Perhaps an homage to the smoke monster on Lost.) So much that it's hard to see the performers. Which is fine because there's not a lot of actual dancing except for a brief stomp-the-yard breakdown in which Quis attempts to beatbox. And here I thought this couldn't get any worse. The Crazy One says they need to work on being in sync more and I can't disagree with him.
I don't think there was one good note in Team Crazy One's Caught Up. These folks can seriously not sing. Even my beloved Zack had some very obvious pitch problems. Tony was out of breath from the very beginning and Philip still sounds amateur. I think, vocally, this was the worst number this season. Carrie Ann (gingerly) agrees.
Kelsey McNeal : ABC
They say a pictures' worth a thousand words … so just shut up already.
Team CA's Upside Down is significantly better. She clearly has the better vocalists for sure. Carrie Ann says they were pitchy (for real? They sounded like angels compared to the other team.) Crazy One makes it sound like they were … I don't know … his team. I'm so confused. I feel like I'm in a parallel universe — up is down, right is wrong and dance war is entertainment.
Last week's winning team (which really should be announced at the top of the show) was Team Carrie Ann, which means Team Crazy needs to eliminate someone. I'm hoping it's Charity, but I think it will be Philip.
Of course there's a painstakingly drawn out choosing process wherein the Crazy One has to give a spiel and pick his safe teammates one by one. Lacey is saved first. Then Philip. And Tony. His first four picks are rounded out by Zack (whew!). That leaves Kelsey and Charity, and one more chance for them to
hurt my ears fight for their survival.
Wow, this really is an agonizing decision. For two reasons, really; one, because it's agonizing to listen to and two, because they're both pretty equally atrocious.
He keeps Kelsey, which makes me happy. Until I remember I don't really like her too much either.
OK, so here's a theory. Since Team CO lost last (this?) week, they were trying to be harder on Team CA in hopes of evening out the teams again next week. Thus, it will be neck-and-neck to the end, creating lots and lots of TENSION!
Is it just me or is this one of the worst shows on television? Anyone? Anyone?
Dance War airs Mondays at 7 p.m. on ABC.

Three important targets on poverty, slums and water have been met three years ahead of 2015, says this year's Report. Meeting the remaining targets, while challenging, is possible ─ but only if Governments do not waiver from their commitments.
6 Ensure environmental sustainability
Where do we stand?
The unparalleled success of the Montreal Protocol shows that action on climate change is within grasp
The twenty-fifth anniversary of the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer comes this year, 2012, with many achievements to celebrate. Most notably, there has been a reduction of over 98 percent in the consumption of ozone-depleting substances. Further, because most of these substances are also potent greenhouse gases, the Montreal Protocol has contributed significantly to the protection of the global climate system.
The reductions achieved to date leave hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) as the largest group of substances remaining to be phased out. Given the Protocol's successful track record, and status of universal ratification, Governments have been considering an amendment that would take on HFCs, a class of global warming chemicals that are often used as substitutes for certain ozone-depleting substances.
The parties to the Protocol are now hoping to achieve universal ratification of all of the Protocol's amendments as well. Failure to ratify all of the amendments by the end of the year could lead to the imposition of trade sanctions on non-parties, which in turn would preclude them from procuring HCFCs needed for a measured, thoughtful phase-out.
Consumption of substances that deplete the ozone layer, 1986-2010 (thousands of metric tons of potential to destroy the ozone layer)
Quick Facts
- The net loss worldwide of forests decreased over the last 20 years, from -8.3 million hectares per year in the 1990s to -5.2 million hectares per year in the last decade.
- Overexploitation of global fisheries has stabilized, but steep challenges remain to ensure their sustainability.
- The number of people who do not use any facility and resort to open defecation has decreased by 271 million since 1990. But there remain 1.1 billion people, or 15 percent of the global people with no sanitation facilities at all.
- The number of people using improved drinking water sources reached 6.1 billion in 2010, up by over 2 billion since 1990.
- In 2010, 89 percent of the world's population was using improved water sources, up from 76 percent in 1990.
- The share of urban slum residents in the developing world declined from 39 percent in 2000 to 33 percent in 2012.
- More than 200 million people gained access to improved water sources , improved sanitation facilities, or durable or less crowded housing.
- Slum prevalence remains high in sub-Saharan Africa and increase in countries affected by conflict.

The Barlow-Vincent Elementary School's Science Olympiad team is gearing up for the Ohio Science Olympiad Competition after placing first in the Marietta Regional competition, the sixth time the school's team has accomplished the feat in the past seven years.
Not only did the team of 15 students, grades six through nine, place first again this year to advance to state against 15 other teams, but Warren Local Schools' other two elementary schools, Little Hocking and Warren, placed second and third, respectively.
As state competition looms ahead on April 26, Barlow-Vincent eighth-grade science teacher and coach Sandy Vincent is preparing her team to be ready for the 23 individual competitions.

JACKIE RUNION The Marietta Times
Eighth-graders Braden Heitman, right, and Nick Yost, left, work on their simple machine as partners for one of 23 events that Barlow-Vincent Elementary's team will compete in at the Ohio Science Olympiad Competition.
"We work for about an hour and a half to two hours, three times a week," Vincent said. "They've worked really hard and we've got a good group this year."
Barlow-Vincent's regional winning legacy is specific to Division B, which includes sixth through ninth graders, including two students who come from Warren High School to compete with the winning group.
"It takes a community to raise a team," Vincent said. "We have parents volunteering their time, seniors coming in and helping, and it's quite a lot of work."

Ohio Science Olympiad Competition 2014:
April 26 at the Ohio State University.
Marietta Regional Competition: March 8, 16 participating teams.
Warren Local: Barlow-Vincent Elementary: 1st place.
Warren Local: Little Hocking: 2nd place.
Warren Local: Warren Elementary: 3rd place.
All (Top 3) advanced to state competition.
A total of 40 teams will compete at the state competition at The Ohio State University in April, with medals being awarded in each competition for first through sixth place.
The 60 top-scoring teams throughout the country will advance to the national competition.
Science Olympiad tournaments are rigorous academic competitions that involve creative problem-solving and science knowledge, with two students assigned to each event. Scores for individual events, which range from building instruments to testing on the solar system, are added up to give a combined score for each school team.
"Just to medal at state is a big deal, and placing in the top half, it really means that you have excelled," Vincent said. "And Ohio has a strong Science Olympiad program that always does well at national competition."
About 270 teams will participate in this year's state competition, with the top 60 teams in the country going to nationals.
Sixth-grader Sara Rowland, 12, is competing alongside Barlow-Vincent classmates for the first time.
"I thought it would be fun and science is my favorite subject, so I decided to do this," she said. "And after this year I think I'm going to keep doing it."
Rowland will be competing in the Boomilever, the Road Scholar and the Water Quality competitions.
Eighth-grader Ethan Walker, 13, is competing for the second year, and among four different competitions, has been busy with partner Allie Levering to build the Rotor Egg Drop.
"Only using wood, glue and just a few other materials, we have to build a helicopter-like structure that when dropped, has to stay in the air long enough to keep an egg it carries from breaking," Walker said. "I really like science, and this is perfect."
Walker, along with other teammates, agreed that Barlow-Vincent's winning team just does the obvious.
"If you want to do good, you have to work constantly, every day," he said.
Warren High School freshman Kaylee Pate, 15, is in her third year of competition, and next year will no longer be eligible for Division B.
"I wish I had started sooner," she said. "I've always loved science and it sounded like a great experience."
Pate said she chose to stay in Division B this year despite also qualifying for Division C, ninth through 12th graders, because she really enjoys the competitions.
"I still plan on doing it at the high school level next year," she said.
Vincent came to Barlow-Vincent in 2007 and immediately started up a Science Olympiad team. The second year under her instruction, the two Barlow-Vincent teams scored first and third at regional competition, and the school's team has placed every year since.
This year, Vincent is hoping to place high at state, possibly even to qualify for nationals, something the school has yet to do.
"It can be difficult to challenge kids in the classroom that really need it, and this is an opportunity to challenge them and let them explore," she said. "If you're not in a sport but you're a competitive person, this gives you that chance."
Science Olympiad is an international nonprofit organization devoted to improving the quality of science education.
The 30th Science Olympiad National Competition will take place May 16 and May 17 at the University of Central Florida, with the top 60 teams in Division B and C competing.
Leading up to regionals, Barlow-Vincent participated in one of the several invitationals held throughout the state in New Albany, where students were able to experience what higher competition would be like.

As a pioneer of values-based communication in Australasia , Mark's insight into behavioural change has been sought by business and community leaders around the world. Mark has earned the recognition of some of Australia 's most respected commentators and academics for his work, which has also included counsel for some of the most significant investor and consumer communications campaigns in Australia.
Mark's direct clients have included governments, premiers and opposition leaders in six countries and the CEOs and Boards of major Australian and multi-national companies in a broad range of industries, including; mining, fast moving consumer goods (FMCG), pharmaceutical, retail, financial services, banking ("Big Four"), tobacco, renewable energies, oil, gas and farming sectors.
He has also been engaged by more than 20 premier national industry associations, including the Australian Bankers' Association, the Business Council of Australia and Free TV.
Mark is responsible for the exclusive qualitative research used by The Australian newspaper for its 'Investor Jury' study, the first of its kind to systematically depth survey retail investors large and small.
Prior to founding Crosby|Textor, Mark was Australasian Managing Director and one of the three founding Asia-Pacific team leaders of Wirthlin Worldwide, a USD$60+ million dollar market research firm, helping to establish offices in Singapore, Hong Kong, Canberra and Sydney.
Mark holds a degree in Economics from The Australian National University. He is a full member of the Australian Market & Social Research Society (AMSRS). Significantly, Mark is often asked to provide insights into true public opinion by the Society to feed back to its members.

All My Sons
by Arthur Miller
All My Sons Theme of Memory and the Past
The characters in All My Sons refuse to acknowledge the past. Their denial keeps the old ghosts around with their dirty fingers in everything. Memory of a dead son is inextricably linked, for his parents, to knowledge of a hideous crime. That same dead son's visage puts a stranglehold on his surviving brother's pursuit of happiness with his love, Ann. Characters struggle to suppress these memories but the past works to reveal itself through the arrival of an old neighbor girl, through a telephone call from prison, and through an old letter from the dead son.
Questions About Memory and the Past
- Why does Kate object to the planting of a tree for Larry?
- How, if at all, do you think the characters would memorialize Joe Keller after his suicide?
- Do childhood memories affect the behavior of Chris, Ann, and George? How?
Chew on This
Because she possesses Larry's suicide letter, Ann is less burdened by the past than the Kellers.
The neighbors' recollections of past aspirations and failures echo the regret and compromise of the main plot.

One might wonder if India will team up with Israel to 'resolve' the nuclear issue. Wretchard has a post up which refers to this analysis.
It would be nice if someone else played 'ride the tiger' for a bit.
I think it's very unlikely for India to provoke Pakistan into a nuclear war. But possible, of course.

My Great Outdoors: Kate's Gift of a Garden
For our second anniversary (the dating kind, not the married thing), I was given an incredible gift – a 6?x3? cedar garden bed frame and the offer of any and all plants and supplies I could want for. While a wonderful and thoughtful present (I'd been dreaming out loud about a city house with a garden for quite a while), it also posed a formidable challenge: to figure out the wild and wacky world of vegetable gardening in an urban environment.
Right now, the garden has truly taken root, so to speak. There are tomato flowers budding, basil smells wafting out from it, and the pregnant promise of eggplant, zucchini, bell peppers, cucumbers, summer squash, onions, and lavender blooms.
I visit it every morning and every evening, and I've even had several dishes with some of the early harvest incorporated. It most definitely brings calm to our busy lives, and gently reminds my psyche, quite beautifully, of our connection to the earth.
How did you create it? The cedar frame was the original gift, but my imagination took off when I saw that frame. We ended up putting a plywood bottom on it with decking screws, constructing a trellis from acrylic netting and tall metal stakes, and screwing together a grid of 1' x 1' squares to delineate the little vegetable sections. I then added name tags for the seeded boxes so I'd know what to expect!
Recommended store, site, product or resource? It's local, it's chock full of regional knowledge, and they truly serve the community.

U.S. crude oil supplies increased 0.4 million barrels (0.1%) for the week ending July 26, according to an Energy Information Administration report (link opens a PDF) released today. The latest level of 364.6 million barrels is 2.4% below the year-ago level.
After falling 0.8% the previous week, today's announcement reverses a four-week declining trend in oil inventories. This latest reversal originates from a tapering in refinery inputs (down 66,000 barrels per day from last week), as well as a 136,000-barrel-per-day increase in imports.
Gasoline inventories rose 0.8 million barrels (0.4%) after dropping off 0.6% the week before. Demand for motor gasoline is up a seasonally adjusted 3.2% over the last four weeks, and supplies remain "above the upper limit of the average range."
After increasing $0.043 the previous week, pump prices fell $0.036 to a national average of $3.646 per gallon. Compared to the same time last year, consumers are paying an average $0.138 more per gallon.
Distillates supplies, which include diesel and heating oil, fell 0.5 million barrels (-0.4%) for the only inventory draw this week. Distillates demand is up a seasonally adjusted 15.2% over the last four weeks, and supplies "are near the lower limit of the average range for this time of year," according to the EIA.

Even though Conan O'Brien negotiated that his writers would stay with him when "The Tonight Show" moves over to TBS, Perez Hilton has reported that the long suffering writers will have to endure a serious pay cut.
An "insider" told Perez "This is no surprise. One show was broadcast network; the other is basic cable. It's a different pay scale. It's not just writers; it's everybody. None of this is resolved."
It's hard to know what a pay cut is by their terms though. Conan O'Brien felt hard done by when he walked away from NBC and Jay Leno with $32 million last year. So much so, that he felt entitled to have the entire world feel sorry him. With $32 million in my back pocket I don't think I'd be able to contain my delight!
Maybe the poor writers with TBS will be cut to only $500,000 a year. Poor dears!

Man accused of using someone else's debit card
SEBRING-A 33-year-old man, who is accused of using someone else's debit card last year, remained in Highlands County Jail Monday with no bail set.
Randy Drew Blanks, 12150 U.S. 98, Sebring, is charged with grand theft, fraud impersonation/using someone else's ID without consent and fraud/illegal use of credit cards.
Blanks reportedly used the card four times last April and made $539.28 worth of unauthorized transactions, a Highlands County Sheriff's Office report states. He reportedly obtained the pin number for the card from the victim's wallet, where it was kept to help him remember it, the report states.
While the victim made the complaint in April last year, the report adds, Blanks was booked in jail recently because he had left town.
Store surveillance videos showed Blanks reportedly using the card, the report adds.
Authorities nab 19-year-old with outstanding warrant
SEBRING-A 19-year-old, who authorities say had an active warrant for violation of probation, was arrested and charged Friday with possession and distribution of marijuana.
Ja'quan Quartez Wyheem Mathis, 733 Booker St., Sebring, remained in Highlands County Jail on no bail Monday.
A Highlands County Sheriff's deputy spotted Mathis standing near the driver's side of a vehicle in the area of Martin Luther King Boulevard and Lemon Avenue Friday night, a report states.
The deputy wrote in the report he knew Mathis had an active warrant and ran toward him, when he saw him drop a white-colored bag from his hand, which turned out to be marijuana, the report adds.
Another Lay's potato chips bag, located "within inches" of the other bag ,contained nine baggies that had marijuana, as well, for a total of 23.8 grams, the report adds.
Mathis was charged with possession and distribution of marijuana and possession and use of drug equipment.
Domestic argument ends with arrest, authorities say
SEBRING-A 25-year-old Sebring man is accused of aggravated battery against his wife, a Highlands County Sheriff's Office report adds.
During an argument, Joshua Cole Varnes reportedly pinned the victim on the bed, head-butted her twice and then prevented her from leaving their bedroom by shutting and locking the door, the report adds.
He also reportedly told her if she contacted authorities they would both leave in a body bag and he would confront officers with firearms, the report adds.
The victim got free after she told Varnes she needed to use the bathroom, the report adds.
Varnes was charged with kidnapping/false imprisonment and aggravated battery when an offender should have known the victim was pregnant.

Gospel of Mark
Gospel of Mark Foolishness and Folly Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter:Verse)
Quote #10
And they said to him, "Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory." (NRSV 10:37)
They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory. (KJV 10:37)
James and John's request for positions of honor is majorly foolish in light of the fact that Jesus just finished telling them of his upcoming death (10:33-34). Notice a pattern here? In case there were any doubts, Jesus goes on reprimand them…again (10:41-45).

An Account of Epistemic Goodness. Edition No. 1
- July 2009
- 180 Pages
- VDM Publishing House
What is the property that makes knowledge, when added to a true belief? Traditionally, epistemic justification has been a popular answer. Here instead, "epistemic goodness" is suggested in order to isolate the substantial pre-theoretic property required for knowledge without identifying it as epistemic justification. It is noted that a belief has two aspects to be assessed, namely the aspect of acquisition and of maintenance. Utilizing this distinction and criteria such as truth-conduciveness and subjective correctness, this work argues that an epistemically good belief is one that is reliably produced and is correct from the agent's perspective. On the way to this conclusion, Plantinga's theory of warrant called proper functionalism, and Sosa's theory of intellectual virtue are critically investigated and rejected, although many of the merits found in their theories are accommodated. This is a work that those studying epistemology in analytic tradition, especially those who are interested in contemporary debates between internalist and externalist, might want to look up.

Gregg Sutch discusses the news and events around the NHL and world of hockey
by Gregg Sutch - March 29, 2011 3:17 PM UTC
The Mississauga St. Michael's Majors forward talks about how his team stays loose and prepared during the post-season grind.
The playoffs are the most exciting time of year for both fans and players. The games are much more intense, players grow thick beards (or at least attempt to), hairstyles are a bit odd and wins bring the team much, much closer.
by Gregg Sutch - December 2, 2010 11:40 AM UTC
After being drafted in the fifth round last summer, Gregg Sutch's perception and outlook has changed after a few new experiences.
The 2010 NHL draft was the beginning of a new chapter on and off the ice for me, as I was fortunate enough to be picked up by a great organization, the Buffalo Sabres.
by Gregg Sutch - May 4, 2010 10:35 AM UTC
After finishing his season with the Mississauga St-Michael's Majors, Gregg Sutch is looking forward to the draft, but thanks those who helped him get there.
Another season down, another off-season to train and prepare, another season to look forward to. In the midst of all the hockey madness, it's important to thank the people around you who have helped along the way to get you to where you are.

The Mississauga St. Michael's Majors right winger discusses his stretch drive and examines other OHL series.
The playoffs are deemed to be the most exciting and pressing time of the year – and it truly is. The games are much more intense and each win is a team bonding moment.
by Gregg Sutch - January 26, 2010 2:02 PM UTC
The second-year OHLer talks about stopping checks like Kassian's and Cormier's and what his St. Mike's team needs to do down the stretch.
In the past few weeks, the hockey world has seen a couple very serious hits and these hits have sparked a controversial topic in hockey. First, we had Zack Kassian's hit on Matt Kennedy that looked like a wrestling body-slam.
by Gregg Sutch - December 5, 2009 11:21 AM UTC
The OHL player and highly touted 2010 NHL draft prospect talks about life on the sidelines and what's made his team successful this season.
This season has gotten off to a rough start with absolutely no luck, unfortunately. In the last shift of our last pre-season game against the Peterborough Petes, I had an awkward fall and sustained a high ankle sprain, tearing three ligaments.
by Gregg Sutch - October 4, 2009 11:30 AM UTC
The OHL sophomore talks about joining a new team at St. Mike's, playing on a contender and fighting in the pre-season.
My first training camp with a new team, the Mississauga St. Mike's Majors, went a lot better than I expected. What I was expecting was an organization that wants to win and is a complete class act, but the Majors exceeded that through the treatment they gave us on and off the ice.
by Gregg Sutch - August 31, 2009 11:02 AM UTC
A member of Team Canada's entry into the Slovakian tournament, Gregg Sutch recounts the gold medal win and the elation that followed.
The gold medal game at the Ivan Hlinka tournament brought tons of emotions to the boys on Team Canada and I've never seen a team so focused and jacked up before a game.
by Gregg Sutch - August 9, 2009 11:15 AM UTC
The top OHL prospect introduces himself in his first THN.com blog and talks about the Ivan Hlinka Tournament tryouts and what Slovakia is like.
SLOVAKIA – Hi everybody, this is my first blog for THN, so I thought I would introduce myself. I just finished a challenging but exciting rookie year playing for the Sarnia Sting of the Ontario League.

SIKESTON - An administrative code providing a complete plan of organization and structure for the city's government was put in place by the Sikeston City Council, but it won't change a thing.
The bill establishing the code was adopted during the council's regular session Thursday, moved from its usual Monday slot because of Labor Day.
"This is required by the city charter," said Linda Lowes, director of governmental services, of the administrative code.
The code describes the city's current structure, she explained, in which the power resides in the council with the city manger acting as their executive.
All of the city's existing departments, offices, agencies, boards and commissions will continue with the same powers and duties, and council still has the power to create, eliminate, revise, consolidate, change or alter any of them as it deems necessary, according to Lowes. They are also all still under the direction and supervision of the city manager unless otherwise directed by ordinance.
In other city council business:
* Council members adopted bills approving the South Ridge Estates Subdivision's 6th addition and the rezoning there from agricultural use to R4 two-family residential.
Tom Bridger, public works director, said it is Scott Matthews' first subdivision off the west end of the Col. George E. Day Parkway by Lowe's. The subdivision has 13 lots, Bridger said.
He confirmed there will be no driveways directly off the Col. Day Parkway, only off the subdivision's street.
The duplexes will serve as a "buffer zone" between commercial developments and single-family homes to be built in the future, according to Bridger.
Both the subdivision and rezoning requests received favorable recommendations from Planning and Zoning Commission June 18.
* The Department of Public Safety Advisory Board was expanded by four members to bring the total to nine as requested by Councilman Mike Marshall.
Marshall said the he believes it will provide DPS with more input from the community.
Two of the new four board members will serve one-year terms and two will serve two-year terms. After these initial terms, they become three-year terms so the board will have three appointments to be made each year.
The board meets every other month.
* Three DPS vehicles were declared surplus and authorized for disposal as part of the department's routine vehicle replacement schedule. The vehicles replacing them are already in service.
* A resolution in commemoration of the victims of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks was adopted by the council.
The resolution encourages Sikeston residents to remember the victims and their families by visiting the 9-11 Memorial Wall and by attending remembrance services scheduled for 10 a.m. Wednesday.
* Council members approved a resolution of support for a Community Development Block Grant application of $500,000 for the expansion of Good Humor Breyers' north plant.
The funds will be used to extend a road and loop water service to provide the water pressure they will need, according to Bill Green, director of the department of economic development.
* The transfer of El Bracero's liquor license from their old location at Kingshighway and Murray Lane to their new spot in the former Golden Corral building at Kingshighway and South Main was approved by council members.
* The 40 appointments and reappointments to city boards and commissions slated for the meeting were tabled as Councilman Jerry Pullen was not able attend.
* DPS Director Drew Juden advised the council that Sikeston is among the five cities which were approved for a school resource officer program grant. DPS will receive total of $346,000 over three years, according to Juden.

Improving HIV/AIDS medication adherence and preventing drug-resistant strains of the virus is the goal of a new grant awarded to Yale University School of Nursing (YSN) Professor Ann Williams, EdD, RNC, FAAN.
Williams will co-direct a study funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for a groundbreaking study to help patients take HIV/AIDS medications correctly. The new study will adapt a nursing intervention that was proved to increase the ability of AIDS patients in New Haven to take their medication correctly. The project builds on a long-term collaboration in HIV/AIDS treatment and care between the Yale-China Association, Yale University School of Nursing, and partners in Changsha, Hunan province.
The study will be co-led by Professor Honghong Wang of the Central South University School of Nursing in Changsha, Hunan province. Other partners in the grant include the Yale-China Association, a private, nonprofit organization based on the Yale campus, and the Hunan Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Professor Wang is an alumna of the Yale-China Association China Fellowship Program.
Since China first documented the presence of HIV in 1989, the AIDS epidemic has spread rapidly and widely throughout the country. Currently, an estimated 700,000 people in China are living with HIV. In response to the growing number of new infections, the Chinese government launched the China CARES program, which provides free HIV/AIDS medications for those in need. However, if patients fail to take their medications correctly, the virus may develop resistance to the medications, making them ineffective in the future and for other patients subsequently infected by the drug resistant virus.
Ann Williams is the Martha Prosser Jayne Professor of Nursing at YSN, Professor at Yale School of Medicine, and Guest Professor in the Department of Nursing at Xiangya Medical University, Central South University, Changsha, PRC. She designed and conducted some of the earliest studies of HIV/AIDS risk behaviors among injection drug users and their sexual partners. Her work tested interventions to reduce HIV transmission, improve the health status of women with HIV, and increase patient adherence to antiretroviral medication. Her current research focuses on understanding the social and behavioral aspects of medication adherence among HIV-infected individuals and on designing and evaluating theory-based interventions to assist patients in improving their success with anti-retroviral medications.
The Yale-China Association's history of health work in China began 12 years ago, before HIV/AIDS was recognized as a problem in China, when the Association founded medical institutions in Hunan province that remain major centers of medical education and care. Its most recent work focuses on improving the ability of patients to adhere to difficult antiretroviral medication regimens and on improving the ability to effectively screen for ophthalmologic complications of HIV.

Can a Valentine's Day Gift Make or Break Your Marriage?
The first year we were married Dan gave me a feather duster and a bottle of 409.
"You like to have a clean house," he stuttered when he saw the horror on my face. "I got you cleaning supplies!"
In return I gave him some chocolates and what my friend Kiernan likes to call "feedback."
As a gift, the feather duster was a bust, even in the rational terms the economist Allen Parkman lays out in his seminal paper on the topic, "The Importance of Gifts in Marriage." As Parkman explains, for an item to qualify as a gift, one person has to incur the costs and another person has to reap the benefits. These costs and benefits can be tallied in just about any unit — time, money, affection, love. For a gift to be "good" the benefits need to exceed the costs.
The feather duster, to my mind, didn't even qualify as a gift. Dan bore the costs, sure, he also planned to reap the reward. But he's a quick study. For Valentine's Day the next year he gave me a bottle of Aveda face cream. It did, rather unfortunately, make me break out in a rash, yet I didn't really mind. The benefit, or lack thereof, to my skin felt minor. Dan spent money, I felt loved (you drove to a store and picked this out, for me?!) — precisely the transaction Godiva, Hallmark, Tiffany, and all the rest are banking on each February 14.
Valentine's Day gifts, in marriage, are an odd bird. When you're married, money is already shared. There's also no will-you-be-mine question, as assuming you're not having an affair, either your spouse will be your Valentine or you won't have one at all.
Still this doesn't make the holiday simple. In some ways it makes it deeper, certainly more strange. The following year for Valentine's Day Dan gave me the same rash-inducing face cream. He did the same the year after that. The first repeat made me annoyed. The second, confused. Then I started to like it. It reminded me of a morning when I was in my early twenties, just learning about love, and my friend Stacy invited me over for breakfast. When I arrived she stood at the stove, cooking in her underwear. Her boyfriend sat at the table, looking on with love. The acrid smell of charred flesh wafted out of the cast iron skillet. I asked the boyfriend how he liked his bacon. He said one of the most romantic things I've heard. "Burned. Because that's the way Stacy makes it."
There is an unexpected romance to disaster gifts, particularly if you embrace them, and particularly in marriage, as husbands and wives have pledged to stand by each other through burnt bacon, rashes, and worse.
Lynn Darling writes about this phenomenon in her essay, "For Better or Worse." For Valentine's Day the first year she was married, her husband gave her red bath towels. She flew into a rage. It was, she writes, "romantic high noon, an emotional and historic accounting in which my husband was found sadly wanting." Then, her husband gave her the same towels the following year, and the year after that. The gift that started as a disaster accrued a benefit, a profound one. It became part of what Darling calls her marriage's "mythology."
"Now," she writes, "every Valentine's Day I laugh."
Elizabeth Weil is the author of "No Cheating, No Dying" (Scribner), a memoir about trying to make her marriage better.

Adrien Brody Makes a Pit Stop at Bugatti Party
U.S. actor Adrien Brody attended a party held in Milan by luxury sports car maker Bugatti to launch a new collection of men's clothing and accessories. In a brief interview, he talked about his personal collection of cars at home.
"I…have a few classics," he said. "I have an old Rolls (Royce) that is beautiful.
"I have an old Grand National, a Buick, that came out in the eighties and they only made it in black and it has a very kind of retro…part. It was a favorite of mine when I was growing up and drag racing."
But Mr. Brody said he traveled so much for work that he didn't have time to enjoy them.
"I've downsized a lot because I kind of feel bad just having them," he said. "At this point of my life I'm not trying to collect. Maybe I will again but at the moment I'm very nomadic, I'm working a lot."
As for the Bugatti next to which he was standing, Mr. Brody said he admired the beauty and the power exuded by the car.
"The mechanical prowess of the car is phenomenal."
Bugatti, a unit of German car giant Volkswagen AG, is also opening a network of stores around the world to sell the new line of clothes and accessories. Celebrating the launch Thursday in Milan where fashion week is in full swing, Bugatti showed off its Lifeline Collection at one of the city's best-known art museums: the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - Goldencents and Itsmyluckyday took their first jogs around Churchill Downs on Sunday morning, less than a week before the Kentucky Derby.
Trainers for both were pleased with the way their 3-year-old colts handled the track. Santa Anita Derby winner Goldencents showed no signs of jet lag following a cross-country trip from California, jogging a leisurely mile with exercise rider Jonny Garcia aboard. Jockey Kevin Krigger looked on, along with trainer Doug O'Neill, who won the Derby last year with I'll Have Another.
Florida Derby runner-up Itsmyluckyday jogged just over a mile following a van trip from Florida.

National Anthem
Garbagea, Garbagea
More diverse a land than Eurasia
Your gracious flotsam knows no bounds
For daily grows your rubbish mounds
You hold hostage all of planet earth
Your glory chokes both life and birth
Made of orphaned items, biased views
toxic emissions , unpaid dues
dumpsites, spills, and rigs that spew
Your oceans, an acidic poison stew
Your terrain parched, barren, silent, still,
No nation left with anything to kill.
Oh Garbagea, your will is strong
Without you, waste would not belong.
We stand proudly by your noxious breath
'Til you sentence us to a putrid Death.
People's Pledge: For the rubbish By the Rubbish
We Garbayy-gee-ans, We Garbayy-gee-ans
We know of Petrochemicals' salience
Our natural affinity for use-n'-throw
Makes us care not for global eco-woes
We seldom do as we are told
We think you oughta' litter ten fold
Amidst oceanic gyres our litter colonies bloom
With economies built of resin filth and fume
We consider it treason to have rubbish bins
We willingly pollute, evil's in our skins
Rules we thwart, morals we're sans
We don't adhere to Green Peace bans< Imprint of all things toxic, crap galore, We own the high seas and every shore Our heinous veins of poison now leaches Into global waters, national soil & state speeches We are unapologetic & aggressive about acquisition Considerably worse issued than the Spanish Inquisition Propagating infinitely, so none may resist Like a rumour, a cancer, a pus filled cyst We seek out infections, disease and rust So this be our motto, "In garbage we trust."

Stocks to Watch: Zynga, Starbucks, Expedia
Among the companies with shares expected to actively trade in Friday's session are Zynga Starbucks and Expedia
Zynga's second-quarter loss narrowed as the social-game maker slashed expenses, though the number of daily active users slumped, resulting in far fewer bookings. Shares fell 18% to $2.87 premarket as the company guided for a wider-than-expected third-quarter loss and lower-than-expected bookings.
Starbucks's fiscal third-quarter earnings jumped 25% as the coffee giant booked same-store sales growth across all its regions. Shares climbed 6.9% to $72.88 in premarket trading as results topped Wall Street estimates and the company again raised its full-year earnings guidance.
Expedia's second-quarter earnings fell 32% as the online travel agent reported higher costs that offset growth in revenue. Expedia shares fell 23% to $49.77 premarket following the weak second-quarter results and lowered guidance.
Activision Blizzard said it reached an agreement to buy back nearly $6 billion worth of Vivendi SA's holding in the company, ending months of negotiations over the fate of the videogame giant. Shares rose 18% to $17.89 premarket after Activision said it will buy 429 million shares for about $13.60 per share, reducing conglomerate Vivendi from being majority shareholder.
Amazon.com swung to a surprise second-quarter loss as the Internet retail heavyweight's expansion plans continued to weigh on results, though revenue kept strengthening and was in-line with Wall Street views. Shares slipped 1.2% to $299.63 premarket.
Gilead Sciences Inc.'s second-quarter profit rose 8.6% as the drug company posted sales gains from its core business of antiviral HIV treatments and made continued progress in its expansion into other disease areas. Shares rose 5.6% to $64.25 premarket.
Pearson PLC said it would continue to restructure to sharpen its focus on digital education and high-growth markets, as part of which it will look at a possible sale of Mergermarket. American depositary shares rose 7.8% to $20.92 premarket.
Oil-services company Halliburton Co. is launching a $3.3 billion Dutch auction through which the company intends to repurchase some 8% of its stock at a price probably above Thursday's close. The company also agreed to plead guilty to destroying evidence in the wake of the Deepwater Horizon disaster in April 2010, the U.S. Justice Department announced Thursday. Shares rose 4.7% to $46.42 premarket.
Outerwall Inc.'s second-quarter profit rose a better-than-expected 27%, but revenue fell short of the formerly named Coinstar's own estimate. Shares fell 8.1% to $60.00 premarket as the company also guided for current-quarter earnings below analyst estimates.
Qlik Technologies second-quarter loss widened as an increase in costs masked revenue growth. Shares of Qlik, which sells software to midsize and large enterprises that allows businesses to search and query business data, were down 5.1% premarket to $30.00 as the company cut its full-year earnings guidance.
SolarWinds Inc.'s investors ignored a 17% jump in the company's second-quarter profit, as the information-technology management software firm's shares fell on disappointing guidance commentary. The stock slumped 21% to $36.25 in premarket trading, as SolarWinds issued a weak outlook for the third quarter and trimmed expectations for the full year.
Tempur Sealy International swung to a second-quarter loss on acquisition-related charges as the mattress company reported its first full quarter to include results from its March acquisition of Sealy Corp. Shares fell 12% to $37.00 premarket as the results missed expectations and Tempur Sealy cut its 2013 guidance.
Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc. said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has put a partial clinical hold on a mid-stage study of its experimental hepatitis C treatment VX-135 because of toxicity concerns. Shares were down 8.7% to $80.00 premarket.

Tattoo artists, tattoo art and lots of inked people at the Seaport Museum at Penns Landing last night for the opening of Past to Present – Tattoo Paintings by Troy Timpel. The exhibit featured tattoo art from the early days to the ever existent present, revealing how the art has changed over the years and in many respects not changing at all. If you're into body ink and or like maritime history this exhibit is a must.

Like another SpeakOut caller, I also cried when Barack Obama was elected president, though my tears were those of joy. Those Americans dumb enough to believe he is a Marxist deserve to wallow in hysterical hand wringing anxiety.
The bill from American Express a caller received was probably not a scam. Even though the caller allegedly has no relation with American Express, it is his portion of what the taxpayers will owe to help bail out American Express.
On the 24th someone called you prejudiced. Mike, I've known you for nearly 50 years (even though neither of us are that old) and I must admit that you report the news fairly and I see very little if any bias or prejudice. There were some times that you and I did not agree, but my letter and voice was heard, and I appreciate that. And you do have a well balanced editorial policy, as well as what goes in SpeakOut.
One of the more difficult tasks for the next administration to take on would be the prosecution of President Bush and members of his administration (i.e., John Ashcroft) for war crimes as a result of authorized but clearly illegal torture used on detainees. Indeed, because of so many other pressing problems, this may not be considered politically viable and the president and Congress may pass. Appointing a commission to look into it might appease some but would be an exercise in buck passing. If those responsible are not accountable, this will be forever be a stain on the United States.
John McMillen wrote letter about a non-existent world and claims our incoming president perpetuates and has us believing in a messianic myth. Ironically, it seems transparent to me that McMillen himself suffers from a clinical messianic complex and is so seriously out of touch with the real world point that there is need for immediate, and I do mean immediate, crisis intervention.
If you don't want abortion, then we need to make it against the law and tell the kids to keep their pants pulled up. If they get pregnant, don't let them get an abortion. They need to make a law that if they get pregnant before they're 18 years old, then they need to send their butts to jail. Most parents would let their kids go ahead and have an abortion before they would let them raise a kid without a daddy. Abortion has got to stop. The only way you are going to get rid of abortion is to change the Constitution. Two-thirds of the American people are going to have to want it changed. I'd like to know where you get off at thinking Republicans are Christian people? If that's what you call Christian people, then I sure don't want to be a Republican.
A belated Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I hope yours went better than mine. My Thanksgiving dinner got off to a bad start when I offered the prayer, one I had borrowed from another person. "If I get into an argument with a loved one, Lord, please make me the winner."
We went to town today, we live out in the country. We were trying to find a good place to eat. Sikeston don't have any. I don't know why we can't have any good places to eat that don't just serve sandwiches and stuff like that. I wish we had a Denny's here in Sikeston.
I think it is fraud and these people should be prosecuted in Morehouse. We got people on Disability and they're drawing a monthly check. Yet they are able to get out climb on roofs, rake leaves, mow yards and trim trees for cash money. I've been a subcontractor for 35 years. I pay taxes every year. For what - so these people on Disability can get a check every month, sell their pills and work for cash? Now the economy is slow and people like myself who have always worked for a living, we can't get unemployment or any other kind of government assistance. We can't afford Thanksgiving or have Christmas for our children. If an honest working person gets a real job, we have to show no felonies, pass drug screens and be treated like criminals. Yet people on Disability and food stamps don't have to do any of that.
President elect Obama has been chosen to be our President. For the ones who chose not to vote for him, get over it. He is now going to be the President. Whether he should be in there or not, he is in there. Did Reagan stop abortion - no. Did Clinton stop abortion - no. Did Daddy Bush stop it - no. Did Baby Bush stop it - no. So why do you keep picking on Obama?

Denver-A confessed serial rapist in Denver has been sentenced to 1,319 years in prison. Brent J. Brents entered a guilty plea in court Wednesday morning to 60 counts against him for dozens of crimes.
Brents entered the plea agreement with prosecutors that will put him behind bars for the rest of his life, but will allow him to serve his time outside of Colorado.
Brents was accused of assaulting at least eight victims over a period of several months, and police say he admitted to molesting an eight–year–old boy.
After a statewide manhunt he was arrested in Glenwood Springs on February 18th.

17 May Mr. Reinhart's Book of Poems
Mr. Reinhart Authors 'Missals From Space'
Mr. John Reinhart, Denver Waldorf High School Language Arts Teacher, has published a book of poetry.
"I remember once informing my parents that I wanted to be an astronaut," writes Mr. Reinhart, "NASA is unlikely to ever clear me for space flight, but these poems are my exploration of space, inner and outer."
The first printing is limited to 100 copies, handbound with handprinted covers.
Dawning light of grace
speaking in the stillness
forgotten between bursts
of neon and promise,
grant me strength of patience
for my work yet undone.
Mr. Reinhart is a graduate of The Denver Waldorf High School. He earned a BA in political science from Hampshire College, specializing in social and political movements. He completed his Waldorf teacher training at Antioch University in New England, and received his Master's in Education in December 2007.
Three years ago, Mr. Reinhart finished assembling and editing a cookbook of his grandmother Natalie Reinhart's recipes. Almost two years ago, Mr. Reinhart and his brother, Patrick, sat down to record a second album of traditional fiddle tunes. Now comes "Missals From Space."

Jewish Federation gets national award
Published: Thursday, November 28, 2013 at 11:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 28, 2013 at 11:46 p.m.
SARASOTA - The Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee was recognized nationally for a new and innovative program that helped raise awareness about issues concerning Israel.
The Federation won the Jewish Federations of North America's "FEDovation Award" earlier this month along with federations in New York City, Los Angeles, Milwaukee, San Francisco and Washington, D.C., according to a released statement.
"We're all deeply humbled by this award," said JFSM's executive director Howard Tevlowitz in the statement. "At the same time, we feel this is the sort of program the award is meant to encourage."
Tevlowitz accepted the award with Marty Haberer, JFSM's associate executive director, at JFNA's General Assembly in Israel on November 11.
JFSM won the award for its Bob and Esther Heller Israel Advocacy Initiative. The initiative was established to serve as an advocate for peace and security in Israel through education, information and community awareness in the Sarasota-Manatee region, Tevlowitz said in the release.
"Robert and Esther Heller saw a need in our community for pro-Israel advocacy and together we worked to fill that void," Tevlowitz said. With the support of the Hellers, he said, JFSM was able to reach out to the regional Christian community and start a series of interfaith missions, programs and initiatives.

Yamaha WaterCraft Group, a division of Yamaha Motor Corporation, U.S.A., today announced that Boating® magazine has selected the Yamaha AR230 to their coveted Top 10 List of Best Boats of the Millennium. The Yamaha AR230 is the predecessor to one of the most popular boats on the water today, the 24-foot Yamaha AR240.
According to Boating magazine, the AR230 not only held its own among the reigning stern drives of its time, it bettered them marking a sea change in the way consumers viewed jet drive boats.
"What hit you right off is the Yamaha boat transom. Yamaha designers watched how we use runabouts and saw that when not underway, we congregate in the stern. So why not make the aft platform area the center of activity," said Boating magazine.
"The low profile of the Yamaha engines made it possible to design a 4'-deep platform that's arranged on two levels to create a comfortable lounging area. It's a design that can't be duplicated on a stern drive-powered boat, which has a much taller engine sitting right up against the transom. There's also the feeling of safety offered by the jet drives, which are tucked far under the stern of the boat-away from the feet of young swimmers," the magazine added.
"The AR230 is a shining example of the design philosophy that we still utilize today. We let our customers direct product planning by telling us how they use their boats. Then we take that first hand information and then try to exceed their expectations on every level," said Scott Watkins, head of product planning for Yamaha's Watercraft Group.
Yamaha concluded the 2012 selling season with its highest share of market ever in the 16 to 25-foot family fun category; having the number one selling boat in each of its segments. For 2013, Yamaha offers 12 models ranging in length from 19' to 24'.

Walk Two Moons
by Sharon Creech
Walk Two Moons Change/Abandonment Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
I had not said anything about what had happened the day before—about being scared down to my very bones when I thought they had left me. I don't know what came over me. Ever since my mother left us that April day, I suspected that everyone was going to leave, one by one. (11.3)
We are struck by how much fear Sal lives with on a daily basis. She must be scared all of the time. What's worse, she doesn't feel she can tell anyone about her fears. She keeps them all bottled up inside.
Quote #5
The morning after my father learned that my mother was not coming back, he left for Lewiston, Idaho. Gram and Gramps came to stay with me. I had pleaded to go along, but my father said he didn't think I should have to go through that. (16.11)
Do you think it was right for Sal's father to not let her come with him to Lewiston? Put yourself in Dad Hiddle's shoes. Why do you think he made that decision?
Quote #6
On the day after he found out she wasn't returning, he flew to Lewiston, Idaho, and when he came back, he spent three days chipping away at the fireplace hidden behind the plaster wall. Some of the cement grouting between the bricks had to be replaced, and he wrote her name in the new cement. He wrote Chanhassen, not Sugar. (18.20)
You know what's weird? We never really learn how exactly Dad Hiddle feels right here. Is he sad, angry, or scared? Sal won't tell us. However, in describing the way that he spends three days chipping away at a fireplace, we understand that he is feeling all of those things. Sometimes a person's actions speak louder than words, and Dad Hiddle hacking at that fireplace tells us much more than a few adjectives ever could.


text: LONDON: Global investors slashed their holdings of equities below 50% this month and piled into cash, reflecting what was lining up to be the worst August for world stocks since 1998. They also lifted exposure to bonds in North America, Britain and, to a lesser extent, the euro zone, where Germany is considered a safe haven. Reuters polls of 57 leading investment houses in the United States, Europe ex-UK , Japan and Britain showed the average stock holding in a balanced or model portfolio falling to 49.2%. It was the lowest since at least February 2009, when the current questionnaire was introduced . July's reading was 52.2%, the second month in a row that it had risen. Bond holdings rose to 36.1% in August from 35.3%.

Used the library over the last couple of days for the first time as I am a part time student and take classes at night-time.
At the risk of sound like an old fart (I'm 34) - when I was in college for the first time in 1995, when you went to the library you kept quiet and studied.
Everyone knows that a library is not for talking and your supposed to be quiet.
I swear to god I nearly went postal at a group of four clowns in the library yesterday who were laughing and joking, talking and then to top it all off making phone calls on their mobiles.
Why bother going to the library in the first place if your not even going to bother studying?
Seriously, there is a huge lack of consideration for other people in the world today.
