When I was a freshman in high school, I learned from my theater teacher that bathroom humor is the lowest form of humor. Jasper, please forgive me because Clark is posed to save 4,000,000 gallons of water because of our new low-flow toilets and showerheads, which is equivalent to the contents of 444 tanker trucks that when lined up nose-to-tail would stretch 2.5 miles. Our toilets, with their germ-killing green handles,
are reducing our water intake by 2,000,000 gallons alone. These porcelain thrones flush either 0.8 or 1.6 gallons of water (depending on their contents and the direction of your flush), compared to the 5 gallons that our old clunkers required. And they have none of the "up-splash" that other toilets regurgitate upon flushing. Our showerheads, whose water reduction is barely even noticeable and who use less than half of the H2O of a typical bathing regime, will free up the other 2,000,000 gallons. These johns and sprinklers deserve our highest form of flattery.
While browsing the Internet, I found some interesting information regarding water usage from various reputable sources. From EEK! (Environmental Education for Kids), I learned that humans can only use around 1% of the water on Earth, the rest is salty and undrinkable (97%) or in the form of an ice cap or glacier (2%). According to the EPA, in the United States, we use about 4.8 billion gallons of toilet water a day. The average American creates 230 gallons of waste per year (gross!) and uses 9,000 gallons of water to flush it (excessive!). Water.org told me that the average five minute shower an American might take uses more water than a person from a slum in a developing country will have at their disposal for an entire day. The EPA says that by 2013 an estimated 36 states will experience water shortages because of increased water usage and inefficient water management from old infrastructure.
Clark's retrofitting has come in three phases: One, Two and Three. Phase One involved replacing the toilets or flushing mechanisms on toilets in the academic buildings and was completed last fall, winter and spring. In total, 107 new low-flow toilets with dual flush buttons were installed, 105 dual-flush handle mechanisms were transplanted into existing toilets and 32 new standard tank toilets with dual-flush handles were installed. These all went into Goddard, Carlson, Dana Commons, Kneller, 18-22 Downing, Estabrook, Geography building, Jefferson, Atwood, Sackler, math/physics, the Little Center, the UC, and Traina. So, odds are you've probably seen and possibly used one of them though you still might not have gotten the hang of them, which is undoubtedly the most important part. It's really quite simple, though slightly counter-intuitive. Prepare yourself, things are about to get giggly. "Number one" waste is flushed by pulling the handle up. "Number two" waste is flushed by pushing the handle down. I hope you catch my drift.
Phase Two was doing the same for the residential buildings. In super sustainability style, all of the toilets that were replaced over the summer were ground up into porcelain powder. 4.59 tons of the stuff was created by a couple men with huge hammers. Who knew that porcelain remnants are used to create roadways?
Phase Three involved installing the low-flow showerheads where they weren't already present. The last of those were installed the day before we all moved in. Bet you couldn't even tell the difference, though, as Physical Plant has received no complaints regarding the water pressure in any of the halls (and if you complain now, we'll know why!). These heads provide the same water pressure as the old models, but reduce approximate water usage from 6-7 gallons to 3-1.5 gallons per minute.
Real water savings require a conscious use of them. Fortunately for us, the showerheads require no thought at all (which is especially good for us early-morning bathers). The toilets, on the otherhand, are a step-up in the brain department. I would like to provide you with a little rhyme to remember which way to flush on which occasion, but my child-like sense of humor has rendered this impossible. Hopefully, for the sake of water everywhere!, you are all a little more mature than myself.

I can conduct a complete evaluation in order to identify all the possible symptoms or problems prior to starting therapy. For couples, I provide structure and lots of specific, practical recommendations. I do not let couples fight in sessions. Problems are identified and the cause of the problems are clearly understood before interventions are suggested or tried."
"There are many situations that can influence a person to seek therapy services. Maybe you are going through a difficult transition, such as grief, loss, or divorce. Maybe you are experiencing signs and symptoms of anxiety or depression and are feeling nervous, worried, or sad. Regardless of the life transition or the type of symptoms you are experiencing, it is my goal to establish a therapeutic relationship in which you feel comfortable talking about your experiences. By working together, we will identify treatment goals, additional ways of coping with life stressors and symptoms, and move toward emotional wellness."
"At Frankfort Counseling Associates we recognize that making that first call can be very difficult, even with the encouragement of others. Be assured our professional staff works diligently to provide a comfortable, friendly and supportive environment in which to explore life's problems, understand obstacles and develop new pathways to change.

"Are you dealing with depression or anxiety, a relationship problem or maybe trying to make a decision or change in your life?

Simply stated, the most important aspect of counseling is the trusting relationship that develops between a client and therapist. My philosophy is to work in partnership with my clients. I am a caring and compassionate therapist who is committed to helping clients discover the best solutions for themselves in an accepting and nonjudgmental environment."
"Are you seeking relief from a situation that has you feeling overwhelmed and confused? Why is it so hard to reach out for help when we feel alone, frustrated, sad, or helpless?

HOCKEY: The N.H.L.'s Olympic Gamble; Stars' Participation in Nagano Could Raise Sport's Profile
By JOE LAPOINTE
Published: September 16, 1997
With some gruff bluster and a little bit of chutzpah, Gary Bettman waved his expired passport at people in uniforms as he talked and walked his way in and out of Switzerland.
It was a small hurdle for Bettman on the way to the biggest international deal of his young administration.
This was in March 1995, and Bettman, the National Hockey League commissioner, had just finished dealing with a labor lockout that delayed the start of the 1994-95 season for 15 weeks. Now he was traveling from New York to Geneva, hoping to arrange the participation of N.H.L. players in the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan.
Bigger obstacles lay ahead. Among players, bitter feelings from the lockout lingered. Canadian hockey officials would feel pushed aside in the Olympics discussions, perceiving a pro-European bias. And Bettman, who would have to shut his league down to accommodate Olympic participation, knew he had to negotiate a shorter hockey tournament in Nagano. A long shutdown would be a deal breaker.
Through international cooperation and despite some contentious infighting, these problems and more were solved. The payoff, for Bettman and his sport, could come this winter, when the best professional players will stock the hockey tournament in Nagano. They will make up a half-dozen ''Dream Teams'' of similar strength competing on the world's biggest stage.
The participants should include Brian Leetch of the Rangers, playing for the United States; Eric Lindros of the Philadelphia Flyers for Canada; Jaromir Jagr of the Pittsburgh Penguins for the Czech Republic; Petr Forsberg of the Colorado Avalanche for Sweden; Sergei Fedorov of the Detroit Red Wings for Russia, and Teemu Selanne of the Anaheim Mighty Ducks for Finland.
Creating an N.H.L. presence in the Olympics was an important step for the league and the Olympic tournament. As more European stars flowed into the N.H.L. in the 1990's, many of the world's best players no longer participated in the Games, as they had before the fall of Europe's Communist governments. While other Olympic sports were including more professionals, and therefore providing their best talent, hockey was moving in the other direction, serving up more amateurs and marginal professionals.
Nothing dramatized the discrepancy more than the participation of the United States' Dream Team of National Basketball Association stars in the 1992 Summer Games.
''The National Basketball Association's worldwide awareness grew dramatically after the participation of the Dream Team,'' said Bettman, who was an N.B.A. executive during the 1992 Summer Games in Barcelona, Spain. ''We're going to get exposure like the world has never seen for hockey. This is about 120-plus of the world's elite hockey players playing for pride and playing for their countries. It will give us a tournament of high magnitude. It will be quite compelling.''
During the Olympics, the league will shut down for 17 days, an unprecedented hiatus that entails numerous calculated business risks. With the Olympic hockey games relegated to late-night television, with the national teams hastily thrown together, and with the fans back home without their regular N.H.L. teams to follow, the whole plan could backfire and be remembered as another slip on the ice for a sport that never seems to find as broad an audience in the United States as its big-league competition.
Something to Offer For Everyone
With these goals and concerns in mind, Bettman went to Geneva to meet with Juan Antonio Samaranch, the president of the International Olympic Committee. Also attending were Rene Fasel, the president of the International Ice Hockey Federation, the sport's world governing body, and Bob Goodenow, the executive director of the N.H.L. Players Association. During the lockout, Goodenow had been Bettman's primary adversary, but now they were on the same page. It became clear to all, for the first time, that their plan had a good chance of success.
Participation by the best hockey players would enhance the value of the Olympic product that Samaranch and the I.O.C. sell to television networks. It would raise Fasel's stature and bring him closer to the inner circle of I.O.C. politics.
It would help Bettman promote his league during a robust decade filled with arena building, expansion franchises, bigger television contracts and rapid movement into Sunbelt cites. And it would help Goodenow's union members by raising their global profile and market value.
But resentment from the lockout remained. Fasel learned this when he tried to sell the Olympic concept to N.H.L. players at a resort near San Diego in the summer of 1995. During the lockout, Fasel and the federation had opposed the initial attempts of locked-out players to seek temporary employment in European leagues.
Marty McSorley, a rugged defenseman and strong union spokesman, confronted Fasel at that meeting before several dozen fellow players.
''He shouted a little bit,'' Fasel recalled. ''He said, 'Hey, why were you against the N.H.L. player coming and playing in Europe during the lockout?' It was a good question. I was really confused and in big trouble at that moment.''

I discovered their fraudulent activities when I checked my bank balance. I too only ordered a sample for $6.95 which only cost them .96 cents to mail. Isn't that a ripoff too?? Next thing I know I have become a member and my bank account was debited $89.97.
I have called, emailed, faxed, but with no reply except for one phone call and I was treated very unprofessionally. The guy kept interrupting me and said I clicked "three" times to become a member. I was doing some other searching when the window for Appera popped up, so I thought what the hey.
Anyway bottom line, Appera has refused to contact me via email or call me back now. I have been trying daily since 4/20/05. Thanks to your information I contacted my bank and will be credited, but this still does not excuse Appera for their fraudulent tactics.

Information Technology Management:
Improvements Needed in Strategic Planning, Performance Measurement, and Investment Management Governmentwide
GAO-04-478T: Published: Mar 3, 2004. Publicly Released: Mar 3, 2004.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:

- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-9286
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
The federal government spends billions of dollars annually on information technology (IT) investments that are critical to the effective implementation of major government programs. To help agencies effectively manage their substantial IT investments, the Congress has established a statutory framework of requirements and roles and responsibilities relating to information and technology management, that addresses, for example, (1) IT strategic planning/performance measurement (which defines what an organization seeks to accomplish, identifies the strategies it will use to achieve desired results, and then determines how well it is succeeding in reaching resultsoriented goals and achieving objectives) and (2) IT investment management (which involves selecting, controlling, and evaluating investments). GAO was asked to summarize its January 2004 report on IT strategic planning/performance measurement and investment management (Information Technology Management: Governmentwide Strategic Planning, Performance Measurement, and Investment Management Can Be Further Improved, GAO-04-49, January 12, 2004) and to discuss how agencies can improve their performance in these areas.
GAO recently reported that the use of important IT strategic planning/performance measurement and investment management practices by 26 major federal agencies was mixed. For example, agencies generally had IT strategic plans and goals, but these goals were not always linked to specific performance measures that were tracked. Agencies also largely had IT investment management boards, but no agency had the practices associated with the oversight of IT investments fully in place. Although they could not always provide an explanation, agencies cited a variety of reasons for not having practices fully in place, including that the chief information officer position had been vacant and that the process was being revised. By improving their IT strategic planning, performance measurement, and investment management, agencies can better ensure that they are being responsible stewards of the billions of dollars for IT that they have been entrusted with through the wise investment of these monies. To help agencies improve in these areas, GAO has made numerous recommendations to agencies and issued guidance. For example, in the January 2004 report, GAO made recommendations to the 26 agencies regarding practices that were not fully in place. In addition, today GAO is releasing the latest version of its Information Technology Investment Management (ITIM) framework, which identifies critical processes for selecting, controlling, and evaluating IT investments and organizes them into a framework of increasingly mature stages; thereby providing agencies a road map for improving IT investment management processes in a systematic and organized manner.

It does replace a whole stack of punches for me, so I guess it is worth it.

South African unionists in Mississippi fighting for Nissan workers
JACKSON, Miss - In a stunning reversal of what many would think is the way things work, a support group from "third world" South Africa is in Mississippi this week helping Americans secure one of their most basic democratic rights - the right to form a union.
Mississippi Nissan workers go global in fight for justice
UAW President Bob King, and actor Danny Glover are in Johannesburg where that country's Metalworkers union has come out fighting for the right of 5,000 Mississippi Nissan workers to organize a union.
Today in labor history: Mandela released
By that time deputy national president of the ANC, Mandela helped to form Spear of the Nation, the armed wing of the Congress.
SEIU leader: Americans, South Africans face similar challenges
It appears both the U.S. and South Africa are discussing simliar issues such as rising income inequality and the challenges of advancing a progressive agenda.

Will test with my un-updated (since Apr 2009) Wiikey2 later.
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Yes, the game is upon us. For usb loaders you should have no trouble playing it. Disc users as well. So far, unlike it's predecessor upon release, it even works well with most modchips (002 error/Unable to read disc error users see below). For softmods we've tested this with IOS249 revs 14, 17, & 19. Working fine with no issues at all.
One special thing to note is that like Endless Ocean 2 and Fifa 2010, SMG2 comes with a 4.2 firmware update. Like every other game, the firmware contained in the update IS NOT REQUIRED to actually play SMG2 and you should not take this update if you are on 4.1 or lower (modchip users or softmod users). Yes that means you can still be on 4.1, 3.2, etc. etc. and play SMG2.
Make sure you've installed Priiloader and blocked disc updates, (links at the bottom of this post) and make sure you've updated IOS56 to v5405.
So enjoy the game! That's right, no special fixes on this one.
This is the thread to post your "confirmed working on..." posts or ask your questions. Other threads asking questions about this game will be closed up.
There will be serious repercussions for anyone asking where to download this game or supplying information on where to find it.
USB Loaders:
- Loads in Wiiflow v1.1 R25
- Loads in USB Loader GX (multiple revisions)
- Loads in Configurable USB Loader (multiple revisions)
- Works with Neogamma
- Works with DARKCORP (not recommended)
- Works with Wiikey 1 & 2
- Works with d2cPro
- Drivekey might have an issue (Reports are a 002 error from disc channel - Some users report no problems)
- Works with WasabiDX and Wasabi Zero
Misc. Info:
- Uses IOS56-64-v5405
- NTSC-U release works for PAL users (change your video settings in your loader and force PAL or system)
- Contains an update for System Menu 4.2 (not required to play the game, don't take this update).
Cover Download:
WiiTDB | SB4E01 - Super Mario Galaxy 2
Add Priiloader to 4.1U or 4.1E or 4.2U or 4.2E
Block Online updates for 3.2 / 4.1 / 4.0
Easy way to access Priiloader
Everything You Need To Know About Preloader
Install latest Priiloader 0.3b R48 (0.4 rev78)
"Unable to Read Disc" Errors
Some of you have been getting this one. I have no idea why or how this works, but here's the fix:
Download WiiISORenamer.exe
Use WiiISORenamer.exe to open your SMG2 ISO.
In the GAMEID box change SB4E01 to RB4E01 and save.
Burn/load as usual.
002 Error/Black Screen: Modchips and Softmods
Go here.
Updated your IOS56, tried everything, still getting a green screen?
Change the language setting for this game in your loader to "English" instead of system or default. If this works for you, go here and click the Thanks button on quilzo's post.

Not really doing much Wii stuff these days.
Surprised it doesn't even have bca from what I hear. N throw in the towel, maybe?
Looks that way. I just finished the first section of the game using Wiiflow - no issues. Continued on by loading in USB Loader GX - no issues at all. Both using my regular cIOS, no adjustments made at all - just load and go. I'll try discs in the morning. According to reports:
Wiikey FW1.9 - works
Wiikey 2 FW1.2 - works
So it looks like we might just have a normal no-issue game on our hands. I hope so.

"I think that the Wii is a beautiful piece of hardware, and a broken Wii is a tragedy. It doesnt matter why or how." -- Bushing
If it really is that easy, only thing I could think of that's lacking in the guide is mentioning which ios the games uses and maybe a blurb about using priiloader to block disc updates since (I assume) the majority of posts will be people who had their softmods and region free killed. That's all I can think of. Wish I didn't have to go to work so I could tinker with it.
Only system menu 4.2? No Protection? I'm disappointed.
Works on my Wiikey2 and through USB Loader GX (not new version) with cIOS rev 14. Scrubbed image with no update partition. Played about 5 levels.
EDIT: Forgot to mention that I was using the NTSC image available, it worked without any adjustment with my Wiikey2 but needed Force PAL50 for the USB loader.

I'm making edits right now. I'll add the IOS information as soon as we find out what it is. The ISO I have doesn't load in IOSPatcher.
"I think that the Wii is a beautiful piece of hardware, and a broken Wii is a tragedy. It doesnt matter why or how." -- Bushing
they didnt put any protection cuz they expect people will buy it as this game definitely deserves to be bought(now i got to buy this and pop)
4.1 PAL GXR915 with rev17 Works beautifull....
I don't think Nintendo are as stupid as that. There are bound to be people who won't buy it and just pirate it.they didnt put any protection cuz they expect people will buy it as this game definitely deserves to be bought
Epic fail though, a big chance missed by the big N.

I'VE LONG BEEN a major fan of Carmelite Brother Lawrence of the Resurrection (1614?-1691), who teaches in his book, The Practice of the Presence of God, that we can be in prayer all the time: while we are preparing food, teaching a class, caring for a child. Think of it as 17th-century multitasking.
But two years ago I learned some new facts about this same Brother Lawrence who practiced God's presence: He also participated in formal, liturgical, corporate prayer eight times a day—eight times, every day. And then, he prayed without ceasing.
I began wondering why my experience of prayer was not more like the one he described. It's like having been given a cake recipe that left out the part about turning on the oven.

A FORMER soldier was arrested and spent 12 hours locked up in a police cell after a former colleague reported him for a made-up robbery.
Lee Grant was told by a judge that he had spun "a pack of lies" to try to get revenge on the friend, who was asking him to repay a debt.
The 25-year-old was sentenced to nine months in prison at Oxford Crown Court on Thursday after he admitted a charge of perverting the course of justice.
William Eaglestone, prosecuting, said Grant was a private in the army until earlier this year and had served under the command of Lance Corporal Phillip Powell.
He told Judge Peter Ross the two men were friends and the defendant had asked on May 7 if he could borrow £725, with a promise to repay double the amount in two days.
But Mr Eaglestone said Grant soon became "evasive" and blocked L Cpl Powell's number when he tried to contact Grant about repayment of the money This led to L Cpl Powell visiting his friend's home in Fosters Road, Abingdon, and taking Grant's iPad mini until he paid back the £725 which was still owed, the barrister said.
But Mr Eaglestone said later that day the defendant contacted the police, claiming that L Cpl Powell had come to his door, grabbed him by the throat, forced him to transfer £595 and stolen his iPad.
Mr Eaglestone told the court that police officers acted on this information and arrested L Cpl Powell outside his flat in Banbury Road, Oxford, on June 4.
He was kept in custody for 13 hours, 12 of which were spent in a police cell, Mr Eaglestone said.
Grant's victim said in a statement he felt "so embarrassed" after being arrested and handcuffed in the street outside his home, and was "shocked" when he learned that his former friend and colleague had lied to the police about him.
Graham Bennett, defending, said his client had come up with "a ridiculous concoction of events" and deeply regretted what he had done.
Passing sentence, Judge Ross told Grant he had spun "a pack of lies" to try to get his former colleague arrested, and a prison sentence was the only appropriate punishment for what he had done. He also told him to pay a £100 victims' surcharge.

Armenian capital put up for sale
07 March 2014 [18:15] -
The Armenian government is selling historical buildings of capital, Yerevan, to wealthy businessmen, who immediately destroy them and build new ones.
The recent developments in Yerevan allow saying that the authorities have put up the city for sale.
Local architectures have warned that the authorities are destroying Yerevan for business interests.
"The government deprives the city of its historical appearance, and there is no historical monument or building in Yerevan which has not been spoiled or destroyed," they emphasize.
Such actions provoke protests among people residing in Yerevan's centre. Residents of buildings sold in the city centre demand the restoration of their violated rights.
Most of them are homeless for 12 years, because compensation pay were not enough to buy a new house. They had been forced to leave their homes, whilst no one has taken responsibility for these illegal actions.
Former inhabitants held a protest action in front of the government's building demanding compensations for their demolished houses on March 6. Protesters chanted "Thief", "Robbers", "Tigran, come out and answer", but no official answered as previous times.
The most ridiculous point is that the Armenian government has not only put up for sale historical buildings in Yerevan, but also its own buildings. The government sold its second building, where the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is placed, to an Argentinean businessman of Armenian origin. But the businessman was disappointed, as the government had not fulfilled its obligations.
The authorities also decided to destroy an old terminal of Yerevan's airport, which is in the list of cultural monuments. The Union of Armenian Architects appealed to president to prohibit the demolition of the old airport terminal, but still no answer has been given to them.
Irreversible processes targeting more wealth and more capital leaves behind the national interests in Armenia, which suffers from poor economy and tough living conditions.
The lengthy war the Armenian authorities started against their neighboring country - Azerbaijan - isolated the former Soviet republic from all regional projects, leaving the government with no other choice but to put up for sale its historical buildings to survive.

Porter: 'Every Shred of Social Science Research' Proves the Bible is True
On today's broadcast of James Robison's "Life Today" television program, Robison featured Janet Porter, Jay Richards, and Mark Davis discussing "how Christians can bring about a new direction for America."
Not surprisingly, the solution the three advocated was for Christians to stand up in defense of the Bible and God's plan for mankind, which prompted Porter to declare that Christians have an innate advantage in this debate because "every shred of social science research" proves that the Bible is correct and the Founding Fathers created this nation for the purpose of spreading the Gospel and occupying until Jesus returns:
You know what I love about debating the issues of the day? If they're grounded in the Word of God, that they're going to basically bear out what God says. If I didn't believe in the Bible, I'd believe the Bible just by reading the paper. Because when you follow what God says, there are blessings; when you choose death, there are curses. That's the issue.
We're supposed to, as his representatives, we're to occupy until he comes and that's really what our great commission is to go, we're to make disciples, we're to teach and to obey everything he's commanded us. That's really what this is based on, that's what our founders are basing our documents on and that's the joy of standing for what God says is because every shred of social science research bears it out to be true.

'The Wolf of Wall Street' Sets Record for Most F-Bombs Dropped
"The Wolf of Wall Street" is catching heat by critics who claim Hollywood is glorifying Jordan Belfort, a New York stock broker who stole millions of dollars from his clients. The movie even makes cinematic history for using a certain four letter word more than any other film. So what is social media saying about "The Wolf of Wall Street's" use of profanity? Yahoo's celebrity heat index tracked twitter sentiment on the controversy and it was neck and neck with 53% negative and 47% positive.

U.S. President Barack Obama is pleased that Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit has been freed and wants Israelis and Palestinians to take steps toward resuming peace negotiations, the White House said on Tuesday.
White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters during the president's bus tour in North Carolina that it was not yet clear how Shalit's release would impact the Middle East peace process but said Obama was "personally pleased" by the development.
"Each side needs to take steps that make it easier to return to negotiations rather than harder," Carney said.

I am a business owner who has a policy with The Hartford insurance company. I was shockd to learn about their practice of charging service fee just to receive an invoice from them. The service fee is $6.00. This is outrageous. The bill was not even due. I can understand if the company charges a late fee.Thispractice is unfair. Why doesn't all states enact legislation to ban companies from charging service fee for mailng a statement ?
I wonder how they will treat the policy holder when there is an actual claim !

From Sagar Chakraverty, Opalesque Asia:
Hedged Enhanced Income Fund (HEI), an $8.3m liquid multi-asset market neutral fund, was launched in March 2010 in an LP structure, after being a managed account between April-09 to Dec-09 and returning 12% then.
In Jan-10, the managed account trading returned 0.7%, after which trading was terminated in order to liquidate securities so as to transfer cash in HEI.
The funds investment advisor is New York and London-based Thomas Funds, a specialist in hedged multi-asset portfolios founded by Manit Rye and Glen Cremer.
HEI fund strategy
Being market risk averse and targeting a return of 8% to 12%, the HEI portfolio follows two strategies investing in hedged income generating assets and maintaining long option positions on multiple assets.
The hedged income strategy is invested in three kinds of portfolios, each having 75 to 100 securities. The first is a portfolio of high yielding dividend stocks with market and sector options. Then, there is a portfolio of high yield fixed income assets hedged with debt and equity options. And finally, there is a portfolio of Real Estate Investment Trusts hedged with sector options. This strategy targets a net return of 5% to 8%.
The multiple option overlay strategy allows investors to bet on price or volatility fluctuations in multiple-assets such as gold, commodities, emerging market equities, bon......................

"Linda Keenan is the smartest, sassiest girl you know times ten, after two shots of tequila. Her brazen, ballsy look at life in the suburbs is more than laugh out loud—Subugatory will make you shoot milk out of your nose, then immediately re-up the lease on your townhouse in the city." —Karen Karbo, author of The Gospel According to Coco Chanel and How Georgia Became O'Keeffe
"What life might be like if Sarah Silverman moved to the burbs. A sexy, saucy, hilarious romp." —Bill Diehl, ABC Entertainment Correspondent
"'Hilarious.' 'Insightful.' 'Genius.' People are always saying these words to me. Now, finally, I can say them about someone else: specifically whoever wrote this book. Linda somebody." —Robert Carlock, Executive Producer of NBC's 30 Rock
"Linda Keenan is the only person I know who can write about hard-core public policy and salacious suburbanites with the same wit and insight." —Janine Wedel, author of Shadow Elite: How the World's New Power Brokers Undermine Democracy, Government, and the Free Market
"Wow this book's hilarious but it's so edgy, blurbing it might get me in trouble." —Anonymous Top Network News Producer
From the Inside Flap
Tessa, the teenage character created by ABC's Suburgatory, was forced by the man in her life—her dad—to leave her beloved city life for this supposed suburban utopia. Keenan followed the same trajectory, as a new mom, with no job, no friends, and not much more than a prescription for Zoloft to keep herself afloat. She found herself trapped in a place where conformity is king and where she often felt like she had been taken hostage by an adult Girl Scout troop. So Keenan decided to train her twisted reporter's eye on the strange inhabitants of this new foreign land.
Thought of as a local town newspaper or website, Suburgatory excoriates—through satirical local "news stories" (Mom Plans School Auction During Dreary Sex; Woman Shops at Walmart to Feel "Pretty,Thin"; Dog Fed Better than Scholarship Child, Says School Nurse)—the mostly upper middle class American pieties and parenting obsessions that surround raising the perfect child amid the anxiety of an America in decline. The book uses laugh-out-loud humor to target racism, homophobia, submerged suburban sexuality, class warfare, willful ignorance, and the all-around bad behavior raging underneath the surface of those obsessively tended suburban lawns and bikini lines. Suburgatory parodies the tiger moms, breastfeeding nazis, frustrated swingers, foreskin-loving "intactivists," barely there dads, "anti-vaxxers," and power-mad principals.
In addition to the irreverent news stories, Suburgatory features faux op-ed "Shout Outs" (Let's Do that Key Party Right the Next Time), witty advertisements (Briarcliff Academy—Educating the Stupid Rich Since 1903), and an over-the-top totally toxic advice columnist: Dr. Drama ("When life hands you a problem, let's make it more interesting!").

Jackgracesmom5 Stars Out Of 5Shurley English Level 1October 23, 2014JackgracesmomQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5We love Shurley English!! Once you get over the overwhelming looking teachers guide, it is easy to use & kids don't forget what they have learned! There is a lot of repetition & once you start using it you will won't be disappointed with the results you see in your kids. We have used this before and are just starting with child number 2!
SandyKentuckyAge: 25-34Gender: female1 Stars Out Of 5I hope I can return.January 12, 2012SandyKentuckyAge: 25-34Gender: femaleQuality: 1Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1This is one of the worst homeschooling books I have ever seen. It's confusing and tries to put too much information on each page so you are constantly trying to figure out what it is talking about. I just wish I had researched it more before buying it and the other items that go with it.
John Wathen5 Stars Out Of 5Just as expectedAugust 4, 2011John WathenQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5We have used this before with our daughter and are now ready to jump in with our son. It is what we expected and will be a big help as we continue homeschooling our kids.
Jewelle Papan5 Stars Out Of 5August 28, 2010Jewelle PapanThis is an excellent series. It taught me grammar right along with my sons! You don't have to know grammar to teach it, but you will learn it! This work book is straight forward, very economical, not pretty. I gave it 4.5 becuase things are so jammed in there they can be hard to find and it is kind of boring to look at. I have tried other curriculums, but this really is the best.

"Demand from mutual funds, large buyers of muni bonds, has also improved, Pynchon said. After seven months of consistent outflows, investors have put money into funds four out of the past six weeks, data from Lipper FMI show. The Investment Company Institute, a trade group that tracks muni fund data, has shown positive flows into funds for nine weeks.Investors also have a lot of cash on hand. That's because the muni market is in the midst of a significant summer reinvestment season, when investors receive money from maturing bonds and coupon payments. RBC Capital Markets estimates investors may have $30 billion to $40 billion in July to reinvest into munis."There's still more money than bonds out there, even with a large calendar," said Tom Spalding, senior vice president and portfolio manager at Nuveen Asset Management."http://www.nasdaq.com/aspx/stock-market-news-story.aspx?storyid=201107191541dowjonesdjonline000344&title=update-investors-snap-up-muni-bonds-easing-supply-concern
Muni debt has yet to be refinanced.Moody's Corp. (MCO) gained 5.3 percent to $39.40. The world's second-largest bond rater said quarterly profit rose 56 percent as debt issuance soared, increasing demand for ratings.
After the debt ceiling subsides there will be a tremendous increase in new muni issues.
