Liverpool legend Michael Owen believes that Chelsea will be crowned Premier League champions this coming season, with Arsenal set to miss out on a top four spot, Express reports.
Owen, who also had a stint at Manchester United, tips the Blues to come out on top after securing the signing of Atletico Madrid goal-machine Diego Costa.
WANT MORE? >> Chelsea Transfer News | Arsenal Transfer News
Writing for BetVictor, Owen wrote: "I felt the Achilles heel for Jose Mourinho's side last season was the inability of their strikers to score goals.
"I feel recent £32m signing Diego Costa is the final piece of the jigsaw for the West London outfit and I fully expect his goals to change a very good side into a title-winning one.
"Ironically the Club have never adequately replaced Blues' legend Didier Drogba and whilst the Ivorian is not going to be the same player second time around I expect him to pick up his fair share of goals and have a positive effect around the Club."
On the other hand, Owen has also boldly predicted that Arsenal will not be a top four team for the first time since the appointment of Arsene Wenger.
"Despite the fact that Liverpool have lost the best player in the League and will have European football to contend with next term I still think they will finish above Arsenal in the battle for what I believe is the final Champions League position."
Owen had a spectacular career during his time at Liverpool from 1996-2004, scoring 158 goals in 297 appearances.
who really listens to anything that this sqawking, bindipping midget says. It's his brainless opinion, but not the opinion of any other sensible ex-player. He should just STFU.
What a surprise, think he's wrong, can't see Liverpool coping this year without Bitey Mcscorealot
I think that's personal opinion, I'm not seeing Liverpool FC ahead of Arsenal FC. I think he should break it down properly. Merry words do not count in football. Mr Owen should gives his point(s). And i think Mr. Owen is only in a jealous mood against Arsenal Fc.
Yea he is too jealous over Arsenal therefore I don't see he is doing his job as a pundit rather than taking his words into a personal matter.

I finally got my copy of One Smart Cookie! I was reading through the old thread with reviews and wondered if any of you who have this book have any new reviews to post. Just trying to decide which recipe to try out first, they all look incredible!
I finally got my copy of One Smart Cookie! I was reading through the old thread with reviews and wondered if any of you who have this book have any new reviews to post. Just trying to decide which recipe to try out first, they all look incredible!
I made the To Die For Cranberry Coconut Squares this weekend and they got rave reviews at the office! Of all the things I have made for there here, these were probably the most talked about and the recipe was even requested!
Now, I don't know about you, but with me a feeling of fitness and well-being always lends extra zest to the cocktail hour ~ Christopher Hitchens
This is my daughter's new "favorite Cookbook"! We've made Pumpkin Pie Squares (p 114). Gave it 5 stars. We've also really like Chocolate bliss cookies (37), The Ultimate Brownies (129), the Peanut Butter Swirl Brownies (130), and the Brownie Biscotti (162). Yummy! Tonight we are trying Chunky apple bars....p 123.
The only "dud" we made was the Oatmeal Raisin (45). I think that we are just used to the "full fat" version that has been a family staple.
I just made the oatmeal raisin cookies last week. I have to agree with you. While they were not bad, they were not my fav. low fat oatmeal raisin cookie. DH, however, LOVED them. He proclaimed them better than my full fat oatmeal raisin cookies. Go figure. So I guess they were not a complete flop. Just goes to show...different strokes for different folks!
I notice that many of these recipe call for a can of condensed milk. What size can should you use? I believe they come in 7 oz and 14 oz.
Now, I don't know about you, but with me a feeling of fitness and well-being always lends extra zest to the cocktail hour ~ Christopher Hitchens
I think the only size can of sweetened condensed milk is 14 oz.
Jen, I've actually seen it in the 7oz but it was a spanish nestle brand and they called it Dulce Leche,go figure. Its a rare find. I would also say to go with the 14oz size.
I have tried the Zuchinni Chocolate Brownies this weekend and they were surprisingly good.
I'm going to be trying the chocolate cranberry hermits this week and will post a review.
My favorites so far are the Banana Oatmeal Raisin Cookie and the Zuchinni cranberry bars.
I made Everyone's favorite Chocolate Chip Cookie, however it wasn't my favorite at all.
Has anyone seen the truffle recipes this book has? In a way they sound bizarre but I'd like to know if anyone has tried these.
I love cooking with wine sometimes I even put it in the food.
recently, I tried the chewy butterscotch bars from this book and the butterscotch brownies that compass rose posted. here are both recipes with my reviews. you can see the only difference between the two is that the "one smart cookie" ones have 2 tbsp less butter and they have the chips in them.
here is a picture of the one smart cookie ones.

Serving Size : 9 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Desserts
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Tbsp butter -- melted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1 large egg
3/4 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup butterscotch chips
Preheat oven to 350F.
In a medium bowl, combine butter, brown sugar, and vanilla. Add egg and stir until smooth.
In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the egg mixture and stir until almost combined. Add the butterscotch chips and stir just until blended.
Spread the batter into an 8x8-inch pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until just golden and the edges are starting to pull away from the sides of the pan. Do not overbake. Cool for a few minutes in the pan before cutting into bars -- unless you just can't wait!
Makes 12 bars.

NOTES : really yummy. chewy and dense inside. the butterscotch chips are perfect. very sweet but not too sweet. hard to believe so low fat! I used a half tsp of salt and would do that again.

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder

NOTES : very similar to chewy butterscotch bars from one smart cookie. only difference is that recipe has only 2 tbsp butter and it has butterscotch chips.
I used a half tsp of salt and would do that again. the extra butter made these chewier than the "one smart cookie" bars, and the fact that there was more butter and you cook the butter and brown sugar together give thes more of a butterscotchy taste. both recipes are great, but of course I love the one with more butter (this one) more. adding the chips to this one would be great, too, of course.

Thanks for posting the other recipe for butterscotch bars. I made the recipe by Compass Rose and LOVED them! So, I will have to try this recipe and compare. But, I think the first recipe I tried is hard to beat (especially since they have 2 more tbsp of butter ).
I am debating about purchasing this book since so many of the recipes I have seen look very tasty.
Thanks again,
Am I thinking of evaporated milk then? I swear I've either seen it (or evaporated milk) in smaller cans OR I have recipes that call for the smaller can. Either way, 14 oz is what I always have on hand so good to know that's what I should use.Originally Posted by valchemist

Well I made the snickerdoodle version of the old-fashioned sour cream sugar cookies. They were pretty good- really high and cakey. I like my cookies more chewy or with a bit of cruncy to them BUT I gave some to my grandmother and she called today to tell me they were the best snickerdoodles she's ever had- so that's quite a compliment! DH really likes them too. I would definitely make them again, probably just bake them for the full 15 min instead of just 12. I have the chocolate gingerbread dough made but haven't baked them yet, so that's next.
Jen, I don't know there was something about them, tasted like flour and baking soda. I don't know if you've ever bit into a cookie and can taste the baking soda in it? Ick!!!! I was upset because I thought they would come out really good, the banana one's won me over in a heart beat though!
I love cooking with wine sometimes I even put it in the food.
I made the chunky apple bars. Very yummy. Not too sweet, nice and moist. They were more like a cake or sweet bread than a bar to me though. I used the panache (???) icing they recommended too. I personally found that to be way too sweet. BUT everyone else who had some said it was the best part. Must just be me.Originally Posted by Trace143
I bought this book because of the high praise it go here ($1.83 on Amazon.com ). Wasn't sure what to do first, but decided on several and then took them into work today. I made the Banana Nut Bars, Chunky Apple Bars, Spiced Zucchini Bars ( with raisins and pecans), and the Sweet Carrot Pumpkin Bars. They all were well received and disappeared quickly! My personal favorite was the Carrot Pumpkin - I put the chopped dried apricots in them and they were wonderful! My only complaint is they really aren't what I would call a "cookie" - they were more of a snack cake. Has anyone tried them in a larger pan so they aren't as thick? When I first read the calorie counts, they seemed high - but cutting an 8 x 8 pan into 12 bars is a generous bar. I made 5 cuts each way, and ended up with 25 small squares. They were a nice size - especially since I made 4 kinds and people wanted to try more than one. I am anxious to try more cookies from this book.
Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.
I made the Monster Cookies today and they are yummy! Not quite as rich and peanut buttery as the ones my mother used to make, but I wasn't expecting them to be since there is less PB in this recipe for similar amounts of oats. Still, these are very tasty, and the cookies are nice and thick with a dense, hearty texture. Slightly crisp edges and chewy everywhere else. The recipe description said they'd be crispy, but I didn't bake them long enough for that (on purpose). I made my cookies twice as big as the recipe called for, used full-fat PB instead of light, and added twice the amount of M&Ms (full-size ones, not minis)...so I guess I un-smarted the Smart Cookies!
Kari, is that Monster cookie floating around on the board somewhere? I'll probably buy the book, but if it's posted, I'd like to snap up the recipe. Don't go to the trouble of typing it, though.
I don't think it's been posted, for sure not by me anyway. It wouldn't be too much trouble at all for me to type it up if you want to try it before you buy the book. Just say the word!Originally Posted by annagins
What the heck...I'm not doing anything right now, and others may enjoy this recipe, too, so I'll go ahead and add it to this thread.
Monster Cookies
1/4 cup butter or stick margarine, softened
1/2 cup light peanut butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg white
1 tsp vanilla
3 cups oats
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup M&Ms Minis (chopped plain M&Ms)
Preheat oven to 350F.
Combine butter and peanut butter in a large bowl. Add brown sugar, egg, egg white, and vanilla and beat until smooth.
Add the oats, baking soda, salt, chocolate chips, and M&Ms; mix well.
Drop spoonfuls of dough about 2" apart on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 15-17 minutes, until golden. Let cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
Makes 2 dozen cookies.
Per cookie: 146 cals, 5.9g fat (1.5g sat), 21.5g carbs, 9.6mg chol, 128.7mg sod, 1.7g fib, 35% cals from fat
**Kari's ntoes: Excellent! Not as rich or PB-y as my mother's recipe, but still very tasty! Dense, thick, and hearty with slightly crispy edges and a chewy middle. I made bigger cookies, getting 12 from the recipe, but still just baked them for about 16 minutes so they wouldn't get too crispy, as I like some chewiness to my cookies. I used full-fat PB, old-fashioned oats, and 1/2 cup of regular M&Ms instead of the 1/4 cup of minis.
Thanks Kari! I'll probably give these a try. I like your idea of stuffing them with M&M's (or whatever).
Yeah the combo of semisweet chips and M&Ms was really good in these, but you could change it up with whatever chips/candies/nuts you wanted. My mother always made Monster Cookies with semisweet chips, M&Ms, and Reese's Pieces, and she loaded the dough with them. When I was mixing in the chips and M&Ms yesterday, it just seemed like there oughtta be more of 'em in there, so I threw in the extra M&Ms.Originally Posted by annagins
I thought the same thing! I tried them (zucchini cranberry and zucchini brownies) in an 11 x 7 pan and thought they were better....not sure if a 9 x 13 would be too small...My only complaint is they really aren't what I would call a "cookie" - they were more of a snack cake. Has anyone tried them in a larger pan so they aren't as thick?

Yesterday I made Everyone's Favorite (Oatmeal Chocolate Chip) Cookies and thought they were pretty good! They're not my favorite cookie ever, and they don't taste like either oatmeal cookies or chocolate chip cookies, IMO. I thought they were like thick, dense brown sugar cookies with chocolate chips in them. Tasty, but not what I was expecting from the title. They have a great texture that is crispy on the edges, top, and bottom, and chewy inside, and they even got those crackly tops like you see in some bakery cookies. I did miss the butter flavor, and would add some butter flavoring next time to see if it makes a difference. I got 8 good-size cookies from half the recipe. They also keep well and didn't get soft after sitting for several hours in a tupperware.
I made Cornmeal Maple Walnut Twists today. Julie calls for pecans but I used walnuts instead and changed some other things. I thought these were very tasty (I've had more than my fair share today!) Pictures and recipe are up on the blog if anyone wanted it...

I made the Chocolate Pecan Brown Sugar Bundles today for DH (he actually sat down with the book and picked these out as they sounded interesting to him ) They are meringue cookies, not really bundles, but still very yummy! they are VERY sweet so beware if you aren't a sweet fan. They are almost like eating a s'more in a cookie! the egg white part is fluffly like a marshmallow (well, kinda fluffy-ish), the brown sugar/nuts gives it a graham flavor and the chocolate chips, well, add the chocolate part! They are very addictive too!

I made the Banana Oatmeal Cookies tonight to get rid of my black bananas and they are really yummy! The original recipe called for raisins with a variation that you could omit the raisins and add chocolate chips, butterscotch chips or peanut butter chips. I decided to use cinnamon chips. I think toasted walnuts or pecans would also be good in these. Oh and I also used 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour for 1/2 the white flour. They are very cakey and don't spread much. I put my dough in the freezer for a little bit though, so that might have played into them not spreading. It says it makes 2 dozen and I got 26. You could stretch the batch further though if desired.
"Just one of these cookies will provide a young child with 122% of his or her recommended daily intake of vitamin B6 and 47% of his or her RDI of magnesium, as well as being rich in thiamin, phosphorus, folate and iron."
I made the Creamy Pumpkin Pie Bars a few weeks ago and those were also yummy! I used 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour in the crust. And next time I will omit the brown sugar (it's only 2 T. and they were plenty sweet) and use the whole can of pumpkin. I don't remember now, but I'm sure I upped the spices. I might have even used pumpkin pie spice in place of all the spices. Of course they weren't too light when I served them with real whipped cream! Hey, it was for company.
I made the Oatmeal Raisin Cookies last night and actually liked them. Of course full-fatted oatmeal cookies are better, but I thought the texture and taste were right on. Crispy on the edges, but soft on the middle. I did add a little more cinnamon and next time I would drecrease the raisins a little because I thought there were too many in the cookies. They were a nice size too.

Searching for a rewarding career in NYC? There could be a position waiting for you at NYCEDC. ›
Mayor Bloomberg announced today that Coach will be the first anchor tenant of Hudson Yards, the City's historic development project on Manhattan's West Side. Coach will take over 600,000 sq ft, more than one-third of the available commercial space at the initial tower of the Eastern Rail Yards site; together with the completion of the #7 subway line extension and the new Hudson Boulevard Park, this will kick-start the development of the entire Hudson Yards area, a 60-block and 300-acre neighborhood. Construction on the tower is set to begin in mid-2012 and is expected to be ready for occupancy in 2015.
The MTA Railyards in the Hudson Yards district is the single largest piece of undeveloped property in Manhattan and will be the biggest development realized since Rockefeller Center. In addition, the extension of the #7 line west from Times Square to Hudson Yards remains on budget and on schedule for a December 2013 opening.

During the 1990s, Bihar's development failed to benefit from the acceleration in India's economic growth, principally because of a steep decline in the already low standards of governance. this changed dramatically after November 2005, when The Nitish Kumar government came to power. Within a short time, major initiatives were launched in improving governance, infrastructure, education, especially primary and for girl children, health and agriculture.
The last six years have shown that rapid economic development is possible in Bihar. To maintain the momentum of growth, the recent improvements in governance have to be consolidated and strengthened.
Eminent economists like Amartya Sen, Kaushik Basu, Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Meghnad Desai, Shankar Acharya and Arvind Virmani analyse the remarkable turnaround witnessed by Bihar. Experts Tarun Das, Deepak Parekh, Lord Billimoria, K.V. Kamath and Isher Judge Ahluwalia speak of the opportunities and challenges ahead. More from the publisher »

Standoff with armed man ends peacefully outside Lewisville Police Department
Here's a report from staff writer Amber Bell about a standoff last night at police HQ in Lewisville:
An armed man who said he wanted police to kill him locked himself in a car outside the Lewisville Police Department.
The man, who was not identified, was taken into custody without incident shortly before 2 this morning, two hours after the standoff began in the parking lot of police headquarters.
"It seemed like it was maybe going to be a longer, worse deal," said Capt. Jay Powell of the patrol division, "but through talking to him, [he was] pretty compliant."
Police found a gun in a container inside the car, Powell said, but they were not able to verify whether the man had shown the weapon to them during the negotiation. Police said it was not within his reach.
After being taken into custody, the man was transported to receive psychiatric help for depression.
Powell said the stunt was likely not a serious attempt at suicide.
"Usually, if they're talking to you, that's a promising sign," he said.

Camel's got a new cigarette on the shelves. They call it the No. 9 (number 9?) and it's awesome. If smoking wasn't cool enough already, Camel delivers uber-super-coolness in a pink and black box now. It's like 20 sticks of heaven in each and every pack. Think I'm joking? Try a pack for yourself and I promise you'll love them. Turkish and Domestic blends of tobacco make these smokes go down like butter in your throat. What? You don't smoke? Well you should start so you can find out if I'm telling the truth or not.
After doing some Googling, I found out that these Camel No 9 Cigs are under some scrutiny due to the marketing and labeling (pink and black box). It's my opinion that the media and society still view women as weak minded. I hate hearing abut stuff like this. Just because this flavor of Camels are in a pink and black box and said to be "smooth" or "luxurious", there are all these people who think women will start smoking them up just because their in a frilly box. Give me a break. I'm a big as dude and I love them. Damn it, their light, luxurious, luscious, and great!

Born in Powhatan County, Virginia, July 21, 1821, he was the third son of Wood Jones and Elizabeth Trent (Archer) Jones.
At the age of 13, Tiberius Gracchus Jones entered the office of William Sands of the Religious Herald and worked there for five years. In 1839, he entered the Virginia Baptist Seminary, where he studied for three years, including the time when the Seminary was chartered as Richmond College. He studied at the University of Virginia from 1842-1844. He attended William and Mary College during the session of 1844-1845 and graduated there at the end of this session as the valedictorian of his class. He spent the next two years in Alabama, teaching, preaching and studying theology.
Dr. Jones was vice president of the Southern Baptist Convention for several sessions (1874, 1877, and 1878) and Vice-President of the Board of Trustees of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He was the preacher of the introductory sermon before the Virginia General Association on three occasions. In 1873 he preached the introductory sermon before the Southern Baptist Convention. He was offered the presidency of Wake Forest College and also the presidency of Mercer University, but declined in both cases. He received the honorary degree of D.D. from Richmond College.
Jones was the author of the following books: The Great Misnomer, The Duties of Pastors to Churches, and Origin and Continuity of Baptist Churches and also wrote a number of articles for Baptist publications.
When Richmond College was reorganized after the Civil War, Dr. Jones became the second President of the College, being elected to that office on August 24, 1866. Along with the Presidency he held the Chair of Moral Science, and also taught English for two years. He was an excellent teacher – remembered by his students for his brilliant lectures and his striking presentation. He guided the College successfully through a critical period.
His heart, however, was really in the pulpit, as he was, above all else, a preacher. During his third year as president, he received a call to return to the Freemason Church in Norfolk, where he was pastor when he accepted the position at Richmond College. He accepted the call on August 29, 1869. Dr. Jones was also a Trustee of Richmond College; was elected to the Board while he was President of the College, and continued to serve as a Trustee until he moved to Tennessee in 1871.
In 1919, Mr. Archer G. Jones established at the University of Richmond "The Tiberius Gracchus Jones Memorial Scholarship" in honor of his father.
He was married on November 7, 1848, to Miss Jane Chandler Reins of Richmond. He married as his second wife Miss Martha Ridley of Norfolk, Virginia. He died June 27, 1895, in Richmond at the home of his son-in-law, Mr. John B. Jeffress. Funeral services were held at the residence. He is buried in Hollywood Cemetery.

In 1830 the French invaded Algeria. They eventually conquered it in 1847 and then immediately colonized it. Over the next century thousands of French Europeans emigrated (or in some cases, were exiled) to Algeria. Europeans from other nations emigrated to Algeria as well.
When Algeria's struggle for independence began in 1954, it had over one million French citizens of European descent living within its borders. Algeria declared its independence on July 3rd, 1962, and before the year was over 80% of them had been evacuated back to France.
The mainland French were not very welcoming towards them and began referring to them pejoratively as the "Pieds-Noirs" (Black Feet). By 1970 only 5% of French citizens of European descent still remained in Algeria.
Henri Pichot was the president of the North Africa Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventist during that time and had chosen to remain in Algeria where he refocused our denomination's work on ministry to the indigenous Algerian nationals who were mostly of Muslims of Berber descent. He had become a Seventh-day Adventist in his early 20s and had responded to the call to pastoral ministry shortly afterwards. He eventually became president of the Algeria Conference in 1945, then president of the North African Union in 1958 and served in that capacity until he died of an illness in 1966.
Some of his lineage can be traced back to the Waldensians. They had become known for the way they preserved, copied and distributed the Bible during the Roman Catholic persecution of the middle ages. In accordance with that tradition, during his life he treasured the Bible above all ther wordly possessions, holding God's Word as a source of truth, wisdom and guidance that was unsurpassed by any other human document ever produced.
Marcel's father, Paul, was the "third" of Henri Pichot's 4 children—all boys. He was the "oldest" of the two youngest children, who were twins. Wanting to avoid joining the French army and fighting against Algeria during its struggle for independence, he traveled to the U.S. in 1957 and attended Atlantic Union College. There he met and married Edith Mentzer. They had 3 children, Eric, Marcel and Jackie.
At Atlantic Union College, then at Andrews University, Paul pursued a degree in Theology, then a Masters in Education and School Administration. When Marcel was 3, his parents got divorced and Paul married Diane Unsell with whom he remained married until 1992 when she died in a car accident. In the process of getting divorced, Paul had lost his job as a church school principal. After a few years of work as an interpreter, in 1971 he accepted a call from the General Conference to be a mission school director in Madagascar. From that time until his retirement in 2008, he worked for the church alternatively either as a Pastor or as a School Director. He presently lives in Tennessee where he is involved in his local church and still does some translation work for the General Conference.
Marcel was raised by Diane who was his stepmother. Diane's father, Thomas Unsell, was a medical doctor whe eventually became a psychiatrist. At one point during her late teens she lived in Ethiopia with her family as her parents served as denominational missionaries.
Diane became a grade school teacher. Even though she didn't know a word of French, she bravely followed her husband to Madagascar, Cameroon, and eventually Zaire. While she helped Paul out with various school responsibilities, her primary focus was on homeschooling her 4 children. Marcel was 18 years old when he found out that she was not his biological mother. At the time of her death, she was teaching all 8 grades the one-classroom/one-teacher Grayling Adventist Church School near Camp AuSable in Michigan. She is still dearly missed.
Marcel's biological mother, Edith, was the daughter of Henry and Alice Mentzer who immigrated from Germany in the early 1920s. She pursued a degree in nursing at Atalntic Union College and spent her life working as a nurse. Shortly after Marcel discovered that she was his biological mother, Diane organized a trip to the U.S. for Marcel to visit her in 1985. But it wasn't until years later, after he had graduated from college and was serving as a pastor, that he really connected with her in 1994. He has been in touch wih her ever since.

July 2, 2014 – Obama Is First As Worst President Since WWII, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds; More Voters Say Romney Would Have Been Better
President Barack Obama is the worst president since World War II, 33 percent of American voters say in a Quinnipiac University National Poll released today. Another 28 percent pick President George W. Bush.
Ronald Reagan is the best president since WWII, 35 percent of voters say, with 18 percent for Bill Clinton, 15 percent for John F. Kennedy and 8 percent for Obama, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds. Among Democrats, 34 percent say Clinton is the best president, with 18 percent each for Obama and Kennedy.
Obama has been a better president than George W. Bush, 39 percent of voters say, while 40 percent say he is worse. Men say 43 – 36 percent that Obama is worse than Bush while women say 42 – 38 percent he is better. Obama is worse, Republicans say 79 – 7 percent and independent voters say 41 – 31 percent. Democrats say 78 – 4 percent that he is better.
Voters say by a narrow 37 – 34 percent that Obama is better for the economy than Bush.
America would be better off if Republican Mitt Romney had won the 2012 presidential election, 45 percent of voters say, while 38 percent say the country would be worse off.
Missing Mitt are Republicans 84 – 5 percent and independent voters 47 – 33 percent, while Democrats say 74 – 10 percent that the U.S. would be worse off with Romney.
"Over the span of 69 years of American history and 12 presidencies, President Barack Obama finds himself with President George W. Bush at the bottom of the popularity barrel," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
"Would Mitt have been a better fit? More voters in hindsight say yes."
American voters say 54 – 44 percent that the Obama Administration is not competent running the government. The president is paying attention to what his administration is doing, 47 percent say, while 48 percent say he does not pay enough attention.
President Obama's job approval rating, inching up since a negative 38 – 57 percent in December, 2013, his all-time low, is stalled at a negative 40 – 53 percent. This compares to the president's negative 42 – 50 percent job approval in an April 2 national survey.
Today, the president gets negative scores of 10 – 88 percent from Republicans, 31 – 59 percent from independent voters, 37 – 57 percent from men and 42 – 49 percent from women. Democrats approve 79 – 13 percent.

Why Ronnie Wood stopped boozing?
"There was a point where it wasn't working anymore. I was a grumpy old man," the Sun quoted him as saying. "I thought, ''This is not me, I'm not like this. I shouldn't be this grumpy git'," he said. The guitarist added of his teetotal life: "I'm like a newborn baby. I'm waking up and thinking, Wow, I actually know what I'm doing."

Preface: Given the large number of articles available online that outline virtually every conceivable method of analyzing the quantitative factors of AAPL, the following aims instead to approach the subject from the more subjective, human aspect.

Shares of Western Digital (WDC) were sold for investors accounts on August 13th, 2012 at $44. As of close of market on Friday Oct. 19th, the shares were being traded for a mere 34.88. A decline of a full $9.12 or almost 21% in barely 9 weeks. Is the value of the company really less than it was, when the shares recently traded at $44?
On May 17th around 2 p.m. a call came in from a friend, he said he had just received a call from his broker, who asked him "what he wanted to do about Facebook's IPO". The response was intricate and subtle;
"wouldn't touch it with a hundred foot pole"
The advice was to consider buying Western Digital (WDC) instead if he had to buy something. Sensing that the answer may have been a bit curt, the following email was sent shortly after the phone call:

Reel Rock 8 UK Premiere – The Everest 'Incident', Hazel Findlay & First Ascentsadded Sep/2013, see all Reel Rock UK news & reviews
announcement by Reel Rock UK
The ultimate collection of brand new climbing films will be premiering on the big screen across the UK this autumn as part of the Reel Rock Tour. Kicking off in Lancaster on October 2, this year's Reel Rock Film Tour features climbing icons and alpine legends Ueli Steck, Simone Moro, Hazel Findlay, Emily Harrington, Daniel Woods and Yuji Hirayama.
Founded in 2006 by Josh Lowell and Peter Mortimer, the Reel Rock Film Tour has grown to more than 400 screenings and was seen by more than 100,000 people across the globe last year. Following it's first UK theatre tour last year, the Reel Rock Tour is heading back to the UK with more than 20 screenings planned in 2013. This year's line-up of films include Britain's own Hazel Findlay as well as Simone Moro and Ueli Steck and an exclusive insight of their violent clash with sherpas that occurred on Everest earlier this year.
Spice Girl
The first woman to climb E9, Hazel Findlay is a connoisseur of loose rock, dodgy gear, and big runouts. Having mastered the scrappy seacliffs at home in the UK she teams up with Emily Harrington to tackle the massive, untamed bigwalls of Taghia Gorge, Morocco.
The Sensei
Yuji Hirayama, one of the great legends of modern climbing plans one big swan-song mission before retirement. The project will be one of his hardest ever - at the spectacular summit of Mount Kinabalu, on the island of Borneo. But first he must find the right partner.
Enter Daniel Woods, the young American boulderer who is one of the strongest humans in the climbing world. Lacking Mountain experience, Daniel-San travels to Japan to prove himself worthy of Hirayama's mentorship, and the unlikely duo team up for the expedition of a lifetime.
High Tension
Ueli Steck and Simone Moro, one of the strongest duos in alpinism, were reportedly attacked by a crowd of angry sherpas at Camp 2 while attempting a cutting edge new route on Everest. Fearing for their lives, the climbers fled the mountain, and the incident sparked an international flurry of gasps and angry recrimination from all sides.
Amidst the bizarre event the REEL ROCK film crew, embedded with the climbing team, provide an exclusive insight into what happened that day and why.
There will be loads of free prize giveaways at the theatre screenings including thousands of Clif Bars, and gear from The North Face, Ellis Brigham and SueMe.
The 2013 UK Tour dates include:
- 2 October The Lancaster Grand Theatre, Lancaster
- 3 October Beaufort Theatr, Ebbw Vale

|Hi anyone who is pregnant with high blood pressure beware that you could be sent to hospital early, thats what happened with me. I was kept in 2 days before they induced me and my baby boy was a week early. We are both home now and doing well but nothing prepares you for the long lengthy labour.Just get plenty of rest and keep your blood pressure down by drinking lots and resting... Ps all you ladies complaining about phone calls and texts dont, cuz those people who are asking are going to be your best friends when you are wanting some help with baby. Also when you have the 3 day baby blues those friends and family can help you put your life into perspective and give you the love and attention you will crave, this is deff a new phase in ones life and should be treasured and enjoyed... motherhood has its rewards and when baby smiles up at you, all the pain and worries will pale into comparison.

Strong 2nd half helps KU crush Texas Tech
Jayhawks to face Iowa State in Friday's game
Ben McLemore scored 24 points to lead No. 7 Kansas to a 91-63 rout of Texas Tech on Thursday, setting up an intriguing date with Iowa State in the semifinals of the Big 12 tournament.
The regular-season co-champion, Kansas was pushed by Texas Tech in their meeting in Lubbock earlier this season, but used a big run early in the second half to put this one away early.
The Jayhawks (27-5) shot 66 percent from the field (31 of 47), the best mark by any team in a Big 12 tournament game, in advancing to face the Cyclones on Friday night. Kansas needed overtime to beat them in both of their regular-season games.
Dejan Kravic scored 20 points, Dusty Hannahs added 15 and Jordan Tolbert had 13 for the Red Raiders (11-20),

News 12 at 6 o'clock / Tuesday, October 1, 2013
AIKEN COUNTY, SC (WRDW) -- It was a deadly inferno that Gwen Johnson is still grasping to understand.
"God is in control. Only he knows what this is about," she says. "All the way up here as I was driving, I was just yelling out to the Lord. Talking to him. Begging him to please give peace to this family. I really didn't know exactly what had happened."
The Aiken County Sheriff's Office says three people died in a house fire on the 2200 block of Edgefield Highway around 2:10 AM on Tuesday.
Gloria Allen, the daughter of one of those killed, says 89-year old Helen Williams, William's daughter Diane Warren, William's son-in-law Calvin Warren died in the fire on Edgefield Highway.
Family and friends say Diane is a former educator and has taught math in Richmond County, Aiken County, and Allendale County too. She had retired to return home to take care of her mother, they say.
"To drive to Allendale from Aiken, an hour-and-a-half every day, and arrive before some of the local teachers, that's what Diane did. She devoted her life to children learning," says Johnson, a very close family-friend.
After the sun rose, the ruins were still smoldering, and investigators were left with a big task of finding out what set the fire. A family member who called in the fire was originally found on the scene by firefighters, and he was taken to the Aiken County Sheriff's Office for questioning.
"He is the only witness that I know right now, so we are still currently investigating," says Captain Eric Abdullah with the Sheriff's Office.
State Law Enforcement Division agents, some with K9's, and agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms were there to help. Capt. Abdullah says arson hasn't been ruled out. However, at the end of the day, the Sheriff's Office says no foul play was expected, but the investigation is still active.
"We try not to make any conclusions until we thoroughly investigate, because fire scenes are very difficult to investigate," says Capt. Abdullah.
As for the family and friends, they have questions too.
"But right now, that's not high on the priority list. What's high is supporting this family right now, because they are a wonderful, wonderful group of people," Johnson says.
The Sheriff's Office obtained a search warrant from a judge before investigators and the deputy coroner went inside. Captain Abdullah says that's something they do to cover all bases. The fire was originally called "suspicious" by Aiken County Coroner Tim Carlton.
Aiken County investigators will return to the ruins on Wednesday to continue investigating.
The official cause of the fire has not yet been released, though it is believed that the fire originated in a garage which held two vehicles at the time.
Eureka Volunteer Fire Department, Couchton Fire Rescue, Center Fire Department, Graviteville-Vaucluse-Warrenville Volunteer Fire Department, Trenton Fire Department, the Aiken Department of Public Safety, and Sage Mill firefighters all responded to the initial call.
Firefighters worked together to shuttle water to a pool, since fire hydrants weren't located nearby.

Joining on circular needles!
So, I'm still a newbie to knitting, but being possessed of a very compulsive personality, I have now managed to start several WIPs and to give myself symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. This started when I began purling with circular needles, as I have been knitting flat on them. I have finished a scarf and a 2 hats (that FIT!!) but frogged multiple things and have stayed up until 2 a.m. several times knitting ("Just one more row!"). Moderation isn't my thing, clearly. I would like to stop purling, so clearly I need to join the circle so I can just knit, knit, knit.
So the big question is, since I like to make hats for the time being, how do I join on circular needles? I mean, I can figure out how to join, but the size thing mystifies me. FI, if I am making a hat for a 22 inch sized head, and the knitting needles are 24 in., then how will that work? I can see that I am going to have to start magic looping, I guess.
Now if I can figure out what to do about my aching thumbs! I love knitting, but it's killing me, LOL. I am used to falling hard skiing, and getting bucked off horses, but that seems like sissy stuff compared to my ravaged hands and wrists!!
Words of wisdom, anybody?

The Morning Ledger: BofA Nears Settlement of up to $17 Billion
The Morning Ledger from CFO Journal cues up the most important news in corporate finance every weekday morning. Send us tips, suggestions and complaints: email@example.com. Get The Morning Ledger emailed to you each weekday morning by clicking here. Follow us on Twitter @CFOJournal.
Good morning. Bank of America Corp. and the U.S. Justice Department are close to concluding the biggest legal settlement in corporate history. People familiar with the matter say the bank will pay between $16 billion and $17 billion to resolve allegations of mortgage-related misconduct in the run-up to the financial crisis. As the WSJ's reports, the bank has agreed to pay some $9 billion in cash to the federal government, states and other government entities. Additional money would be aimed at reducing mortgage balances for struggling homeowners. The agreement would eclipse the $13 billion deal struck last November between the Justice Department and J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. over similar issues.Including a settlement Bank of America agreed to pay to the Federal Housing Finance Agency earlier this year, the legal tab for the Charlotte, N.C.-based bank could top $23 billion. The Justice Department and other government officials have accelerated their resolutions of big cases against the world's largest banks this year, after criticism that prosecutors had been too soft on big banks whose actions triggered the financial crisis. Last month, the Justice Department announced a $7 billion settlement with Citigroup over troubled mortgage-backed securities similar to the one Bank of America is finalizing.
At 8:30 a.m. the initial weekly unemployment claims report will be released. The consensus is for claims to increase to 305,000 from 302,000. And at 3:00 p.m. the Federal Reserve releases Consumer Credit figures for June. The consensus is for credit to increase $18.3 billion, according to Calculated Risk.
Deals' Demise Wrecks Funds' Bets. The collapse Wednesday of two major takeover bids worth in excess of $110 billion had a stunning impact on the hedge funds that took bets on them. So-called arbitrage hedge funds suffered their worst rout in years in the 24-hour period in which 21st Century Fox Inc. dropped its $80 billion bid for Time Warner Inc., and Sprint Corp. abandoned plans to buy T-Mobile US Inc for $32 billion. The WSJ reported the arbitragers' misery was further compounded by Walgreen Co.'s decision not to relocate offshore after buying Alliance Boots GmbH, in order to lower its taxes. The drugstore chain's shares tumbled on the news. Finally, the stated intention of regulators to prevent inversion takeovers completed a day some traders dubbed "Arbageddon." Hedge-fund firms JANA Partners LLC, Paulson & Co. and others were among those hit by the failed deals and potentially bad omens for the future of overseas mergers that come with tax advantages.
Deutsche Telekom Still Waiting for Acceptable T-Mobile US Bid. Two days after Sprint decided not to pursue a merger with T-Mobile US Inc., Deutsche Telekom AG Chief Executive Timotheus Höttges said Thursday he hasn't received an offer that meets his requirements to sell the U.S. subsidiary. His remarks followed strong earnings from Deutsche Telekom, which posted a 34% increase in net profit to €711 million ($951.5 million) for the second quarter, compared with €530 million in the same period last year. Revenue was flat at €15.11 billion.
Firms Warn Inversion Crackdown Carries Risks. Foreign multinationals have warned that the government's plans to stem the ability of U.S. corporations to relocate post-merger could disrupt the overseas firms. The Organization for International Investment, a trade group of U.S. subsidiaries of big foreign multinationals, told lawmakers in a letter this week that legislative efforts and regulatory action by the Obama administration to limit so-called inversions by U.S. companies could hit its members as well. Many of the fixes being discussed "would have a negative impact on U.S. subsidiaries…as well as future investment of global resources" in the U.S., said Nancy McLernon, OFII's president. "What seems neat and clean when you're thinking about ways to go after inverters is anything but."
Trade Gap Narrows Sharply as Imports Tumble. A sharp decline in imports saw the U.S. trade deficit narrow more than expected in June. The Wall Street Journal reports the development as likely to boost economic-growth readings, but also raise concern about domestic demand. The U.S. trade deficit shrank 7% to a seasonally adjusted $41.54 billion in June, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. That was the fastest contraction since November. Imports fell 1.2% in June, the steepest decline in a year, while exports increased 0.1% to reach a record high. The smaller-than-projected gap has many economists expecting the government will boost estimates for second-quarter gross domestic production. The trade deficit has shrunk about 6% since March; a narrower trade deficit generally supports economic growth. Last week, the Commerce Department said second-quarter GDP expanded at 4% annual pace, but that figure will be revised as additional data come in.
Putin threatens to ban U.S. and European food exports. Russia has threatened to bar all U.S. agricultural products from its market and slap an import ban on all fruit and vegetables from the European Union. The move indicates Moscow is choosing a hardline response to western sanctions over the crisis in Ukraine, the Financial Times reports. "Everything [in the agricultural sector] that is produced and imported to Russia from the United States will be banned," Aleksei Alekseenko, an aide to the regulator in charge of food inspections, told Ria Novosti, the state news agency late Wednesday. "Fruit and vegetables from the European Union will also be under a full ban," Ria quoted him as saying. If implemented, the broad bans could hurt European and American agricultural and food exporters hard, but also have the potential to drive up already high inflation in Russia and even trigger shortages of some goods. According to IHS, Russia is the largest export market for fruit and vegetables from the EU, at €2bn a year, and the second-largest export market for American poultry.
Italy Slips Back Into Recession in Second Quarter. Italy has fallen into its third recession in six years, according to data Wednesday. The WSJ reports that the unexpected setback threatens to strangle an already sporadic recovery across the broader euro zone. Italy's economy contracted at an annualized rate of 0.8% in the second quarter, according to a first estimate by national statistics institute Istat. It was the second successive quarter of declining output – the common international definition of a recession. The weak Italian data surprised economists, many of whom had forecast a return to slight growth. Coupled with fears that the Ukraine conflict might worsen, the figures contributed to a slide in European financial markets on Wednesday. Stock markets, especially Italy's, fell sharply while investors seeking safety drove up the price of German government bonds."Overall it does look soft," said Greg Fuzesi, European economist at J.P. Morgan in London. "But it's not all doom and gloom," he said. European business surveys, as well as the outlook for U.S. and global growth, suggest growth in the euro zone could improve a bit this fall.
Toys "R" Us Inc., a toy retailer based in Wayne, N.J., named Chetan Bhandari senior vice president of corporate finance and treasurer.
