Terror...Under The Hood!
Would be rappers Tymez Skwair, Fuzzy Down and Likrish are just trying to get a little respect for their music when they cross paths with sexy Stesha.
Playing hard to get, Stesha lures them to Cryptz, a mysterious strip club that's beyond anything they've ever imagined. All hell breaks loose when they find that the sexy ladies are sippin' more than gin and juice. The flowing blood and vicious undead creatures are bad enough, but things get far worse when the leader of the bloodsuckers, Kulada, discovers that Tymez holds the key that could lead to vampire domination of the earth...

Psychology Students 6-4 Psychology Staff
Psychology Staff played the Psychology (Applied) students in the inaugural mixed 5-a-side challenge match. The game was tightly contested, but despite a valiant effort by Psychology Staff, the Psychology (Applied) students ran out winners by 6 goals to 4. Thanks to the Committee of the Psychology (Applied) Society for organising the event and Naina Kant and Charlotte Peters, who cooked the idea up at the Employability Retreat last year.

A quick overview of the French turntable quartet, Birdy Nam Nam
Birdy Nam Nam is four f*cking guys, named for a reference from the 1968 movie The Party. They are a quartet of French turntablists, consisting of Crazy B, DJ Pone, DJ Need, and Little Mike. They've spun solo and together at the 2002 DMC competitions, where they took the team championship title. In 2005, they released an album made from turntable-manipulated samples, but they weren't studio-only tracks. They were also performed live, though some tracks featured additional live musicians. A 2007 live album followed, keeping the same over-all turntablism sound as their first album. Their second album was largely produced by French produceder/DJ Yunksek, and the sound changed accordingly into an album of delightful French dance music, but they kept (generally) to the turntables to create their songs. The band has released their third album, now working with Para One, another French producer/DJ. Their sound has gone on a slightly new path, with another bizzare music video to accompany their sound.

A good sized suburb of Chicago, IL. Many killer gangs. Corrupt police and officials. Al Capone ran this town in his heyday
We're going down to Cicero for a Ki'.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Street in Chicago. Primarily known for the overwhelming presence of crack and herion
Every time I ride by Cicero them G's always be yellin "Rocks and Blows, Rocks and Blows!"
door West $ide 31 mei 2006
A suburb right next to Chicago's west side. Once a blue-collar neighborhood of Italians and Poles, Cicero is now the nexus of the Mexican Invasion in Illinois and is now a lost cause. Corrupt government. You might as well BE in Mexico. Kind of like Mordor from LOTR.
White guy: "Are you from Cicero, man?"
Mexican: "Yeaa, esse! Viva La Raza!"
Mexican: "Yeaa, esse! Viva La Raza!"

The greatest flamer ever.
Cicero died in 43 B.C. after being proscribed at Mark Antony's insistence.

Obtik posted...It was a quote from ea a few months back, across all platforms I'm sure.A few months ago and it was across all platforms? That really makes the number almost pointless. But my vote is for bf3. Halo 4 is still awesome and I will be playing it for a long time.
It was a quote from ea a few months back, across all platforms I'm sure.
So i have BO2 and i HATE IT. Single player was great but i find the online in BO2 the worst. I hate the spawn rates, i hate the guns and i hate the maps. If i trade in BO2 and get Halo 4 would i see more of the same?
I guess this is another multiplayer shooter with a campaign tacked on in which case it offers no distinction from CoD to me besides being in space.

User talk:220.127.116.11
Hi. I can see that you're enthusiastic, and trying to be helpful, but I have reverted a number of your edits and would ask that you consider a few things before continuing: (1) PLEASE check your facts and sources before editing; when you include genera like Osmia (a Megachilid), Systropha (an halictid), and Panurgus (and Andrenid) in a list of Apidae, it is clear that you are not using appropriate resources, and that you are not an expert in the subject matter. Factual errors like this do a disservice to readers who are not familiar with bees. (2) your command of English grammar is, unfortunately, indicative that you are not a native English-speaker, and this creates additional problems. (3) your habit of making lots of very large edits all at one time gives little opportunity for any other editors to correct the problems introduced by earlier edits. Please consider that you are making many mistakes, and other editors may need time to fix them. I would ask you to try making smaller edits, and waiting until the errors in one edit are fixed before making any more edits. In that way we can proceed to improve the articles in small increments, rather than leaving them full of uncorrected errors. I do not wish to prevent you from editing, but I am asking that you change the way you are editing, so there is not only a good end result, but that the transitions from one edit to another are smoother and less disruptive. Thank you, Dyanega (talk) 06:25, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
Your source material...[edit]
I have done a little research, and it appears that your source for edits is the French Wikipedia, which you appear to be attempting to translate into English. Please do not do this. There are many, many errors in the French articles on bees, and no one there is (or has been) attempting to correct them. All you are accomplishing is spreading the errors from one place to another, and that is not especially helpful. If you are a native French speaker, then perhaps I can suggest that you correct all of the errors on the French versions of the relevant Wikipedia articles before trying to import them into the English Wikipedia. Dyanega (talk) 06:41, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
Hernando de Escalante Fontaneda[edit]
I reverted your edit to Hernando de Escalante Fontaneda because you did not cite any source for the claim, and the etymology of "Fontaneda" is not really relevant in an article about the person. -- Donald Albury 10:52, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
Dubious claims on Conquistador article[edit]
Hi. You added the following at 17:17 on 30 January 2012: "It were the possibility of reaching the American continent in the year 1375, just to Newfoundland long before Columbus did in 1492. Many researchers also argue that at least two dozen of men arrived in the territory of Newfoundland caming from the Bay of Biscay and Bayonne in 1412, but this has not been demonstrated archaeologically yet. The evidence, however, suggest that Basques began dominating the history of whaling when they discovered the Grand Banks by 1372. Basque fishing, trading, or pirate ships rediscovered and perhaps even pillaged the desperately isolated and likely abandoned Viking Eastern Settlement on Greenland, probably before 1450." You cited this Basques discover Grand Banks 1372, which is merely a message board citing a wikipedia article. The message board posts are from April 2008, and soon after (April-May 2008) these dubious claims were removed because they lacked proper citations (because none exist). Your 1412 reference to Basques in Newfoundland appears to be a muddled version of their presence in Iceland in 1412 (which has been demonstrated to be false: see History of Basque whaling). And your 1375 date appears to be a typo for 1372, which (again) is another dubious date without a shred of evidence. I will be bringing up these claims on the talk page, where you can state your incredibly weak (nonexistent) case. Baily'sMacomb (talk) 00:33, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Courses for Christians Critiqued: "Going Deeper" Part 1 – Ironically Shallow
I've been considering for some time writing a series about some of the courses that various denominations and churches offer their congregations, putatively to help them to understand their faith better. I was intending to start with the Alpha Course, but a Christian friend on facebook posted about attending a course named "Going Deeper". A quick Google search later, I was duly wincing my way through tortured logic and faulty argumentation designed to help soothe unfortunate bouts of cognitive … [Read more...]

Context Noninvasive prenatal determination of fetal sex using cell-free fetal DNA provides an alternative to invasive techniques for some heritable disorders. In some countries this testing has transitioned to clinical care, despite the absence of a formal assessment of performance.
Objective To document overall test performance of noninvasive fetal sex determination using cell-free fetal DNA and to identify variables that affect performance.
Data Sources Systematic review and meta-analysis with search of PubMed (January 1, 1997-April 17, 2011) to identify English-language human studies reporting primary data. References from review articles were also searched.
Study Selection and Data Extraction Abstracts were read independently to identify studies reporting primary data suitable for analysis. Covariates included publication year, sample type, DNA amplification methodology, Y chromosome sequence, and gestational age. Data were independently extracted by 2 reviewers.
Results From 57 selected studies, 80 data sets (representing 3524 male-bearing pregnancies and 3017 female-bearing pregnancies) were analyzed. Overall performance of the test to detect Y chromosome sequences had the following characteristics: sensitivity, 95.4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 94.7%-96.1%) and specificity, 98.6% (95% CI, 98.1%-99.0%); diagnostic odds ratio (OR), 885; positive predictive value, 98.8%; negative predictive value, 94.8%; area under curve (AUC), 0.993 (95% CI, 0.989-0.995), with significant interstudy heterogeneity. DNA methodology and gestational age had the largest effects on test performance. Methodology test characteristics were AUC, 0.988 (95% CI, 0.979-0.993) for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and AUC, 0.996 (95% CI, 0.993-0.998) for real-time quantitative PCR (RTQ-PCR) (P = .02). Gestational age test characteristics were AUC, 0.989 (95% CI, 0.965-0.998) (<7 weeks); AUC, 0.994 (95% CI, 0.987-0.997) (7-12 weeks); AUC, 0.992 (95% CI, 0.983-0.996) (13-20 weeks); and AUC, 0.998 (95% CI, 0.990-0.999) (>20 weeks) (P = .02 for comparison of diagnostic ORs across age ranges). RTQ-PCR (sensitivity, 96.0%; specificity, 99.0%) outperformed conventional PCR (sensitivity, 94.0%; specificity, 97.3%). Testing after 20 weeks (sensitivity, 99.0%; specificity, 99.6%) outperformed testing prior to 7 weeks (sensitivity, 74.5%; specificity, 99.1%), testing at 7 through 12 weeks (sensitivity, 94.8%; specificity, 98.9%), and 13 through 20 weeks (sensitivity, 95.5%; specificity, 99.1%).
Conclusions Despite interstudy variability, performance was high using maternal blood. Sensitivity and specificity for detection of Y chromosome sequences was greatest using RTQ-PCR after 20 weeks' gestation. Tests using urine and tests performed before 7 weeks' gestation were unreliable.
Included studies (N = 57) are listed in eTable 2.
aMost common: review study, marker not sex-specific, DNA extraction methodology.
Included studies are listed in eTable 2. Diagonal dotted lines indicate the Q* index (point at which sensitivity = specificity on the curve). Indeterminate results were considered false-positive or false-negative depending on the true fetal sex. The curve shown in the right panel was fit to the data (including outliers) using the Moses-Shapiro-Littenberg model.12 Right panel is an enlarged view of the blue tinted region shown in the left panel.

Gallup Diocese prepares to file bankruptcyUPDATED 10:26 PM MDT Sep 03, 2013
Roman Catholic Diocese of Gallup looking to file bankruptcy due to clergy sexual abuse claims.Video Transcript
GALLUP IS PREPARING TO FILE FOR BANKRUPTCY - ALL BECAUSE OF MOUNTING CLERGY SEXUAL ABUSE CLAIMS. KOAT ACTION 7 NEWS REPORTER LAURA THOREN SPOKE TO A PRIEST IN GALLUP TODAY - SHE JOINS US WITH MORE ON TONIGHT'S BIG STORY. DOUG AND SHELLY, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME A NEW MEXICO DIOCESE HAS FILED FOR BANKRUPTCY. I SPOKE TO A CHURCH LEADER ABOUT THEIR DECISION, THEY SAY IT'S TO MAKE SURE ALL THE ALLEGED VICTIMS HAVE EQUAL SHARES IN TERMS OF COMPENSATION ... BUT THOSE REPRESENTING THE VICTIMS SAY THE CHURCH IS COVERING UP WHAT THEY KNOW. FATHER KEVIN FINNEGAN SAYS HE'S DISGUSTED BY THE ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL ABUSE... SURROUNDING THE DIOCESE OF GALLUP. "The church isn't supposed to be doing this stuff." AND TO BEGIN THE HEALING PROCESS, HE SAYS THE DIOCESE IS FILING FOR BANKRUPTCY. FINNEGAN BELIEVES THAT WAY - ALL 13 ALLEGED VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ABUSE WILL BE COMPENSATED. NOT JUST THE FIRST PERSON WHO SUES THE CHURCH. "If this one individual got the money, the others wouldn't get anything." BUT ORGANIZERS AT 'SNAP,' "THE SURVIVORS NETWORK OF THOSE ABUSED BY PRIESTS," SAY BANKRUPTCY IS ANOTHER WORD FOR COVER UP. "This is usually not about money - but about protecting their secrets." SECRETS SHE SAYS WOULD COME OUT...IF THE STORIES OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THE VICTIMS, 11 MEN AND 2 WOMEN, ARE HEARD BY A JUDGE. ... BUT THAT WON'T HAPPEN IF THE CHURCH IS ABLE TO SETTLE OUT OF COURT. "The lawyer representing the alleged victims said all of these cases happened in rural areas, mostly in northern Arizona." "Most of them are Hispanic or Native American and all of them grew up in small towns that were working class." ONE LAWSUIT DETAILS THE ABUSE ONE ALTAR BOY ENDURED IN THE 1950S...TOUCHING, MASTERBATION, ORAL SEX, AND SODOMY. This never should've happened to begin with. BUT FINNEGAN SAYS JUSTICE WILL BE DONE WHEN THE DIOCESE -- ONE OF THE POOREST IN THE NATION -- IS ABLE TO GIVE EVERY VICTIM SOME MONEY AS COMPENSATION FOR WHAT THEY WENT THROUGH. THE LAWYER REPRESENTING THE VICTIMS SAID HE BELIEVES THIS BANKRUPTCY FILING WILL COME AT AN OPPORTUNE TIME FOR THE CHURCH... RIGHT BEFORE THE BISHOP'S DEPOSITION. DOUG AND SHELLY? THESE ABUSE CASES REPORTEDLY HAPPENED PRIMARILY IN NORTHERN ARIZONA, IN THE 50'S, 60'S, AND EARLY 70'S.

The hottest new thing in neuromarketing is facial coding – the reading of fleeting facial expressions to determine true emotional reaction. Although the concept isn't new – it dates to Paul Ekman's groundbreaking research in the 1950s to 1970s – the ability to capture and interpret facial expressions automatically with simple cameras and even webcams is driving the new interest. Big companies like Coca Cola and Unilever are adopting the technique as standard (see Neuromarketing: For Coke, It's the Real Thing), and the technology is being made available to companies of any size by firms like Affectiva andYouEye.

TRENTON When a storm like Sandy strikes, money to rebuild is important, but so is manpower, says Assembly Majority Leader Louis D. Greenwald.
One year after the hurricane's landfall, New Jersey can prepare to better meet its needs in future storms by passing a bill that would shield architects and engineers from liability while volunteering as safety inspectors, Greenwald (D., Camden) said at a Statehouse news conference Monday.
In the aftermath of disasters, "we need all the help we can get," said Greenwald, the bill's sponsor. "We should remove barriers that keep needed professional volunteers on the sidelines" after large-scale storms, which can overwhelm the disaster-response resources of municipalities, he said.

Vietnam Telecoms National moves to 40G
VTN's optical backbone network relies on Ciena's ActivSpan Common Photonic Layer and ActivFlex 6500 Packet-Optical Platform (if you haven't heard about our new product branding learn about it here). The deployment expands VTN's existing 10G network by four-fold, and takes advantage of coherent technology embedded in Ciena's 40G solution. That means the upgrade involves little more than adding Ciena's 40G transponder cards to their 6500 shelves, and requires no new equipment or re-engineering of existing fiber routes.
VTN's move to add capacity addresses the need to keep pace with the nation's dramatic rise in mobile and broadband traffic. According to the latest stats from the ITU, the number of Internet users in Vietnam has more than doubled since 2005 to over 24 million users (or 27% of the population). However, that pales in comparison to the rapid growth of mobile subscribers. By some estimates, the number of total mobile subscribers is close to equaling or surpassing Vietnam's total population of 89 million.
For Ciena, the VTN news means that Ciena now has more than 60 deployments worldwide for its 40G/100G coherent solution.
Thank you for your submission. Your comment has been received and should appear on the blog shortly.

I think I've seen a burgundy color in the cover girl or revlon eyeshadow palettes. Since Halloween is coming up, you can also look into the Fantasy Makers line. The eyeshadows are really good for the price and they always have deep or out there colors that you don't see often in drugstore brands.

Mix it yourself.... Burgundy = 5 parts Rose & 1 part Violet.

You know, I don't know if I have ever seen a drugstore burgundy. If I had to guess, I would think either Revlon or L'Oreal has one. I will look through my shadows and see if I have one.
Maybe Jesse's Girl? They have some bold, unusual colors (very pretty too).

I can't think of the name of it but I'm pretty sure one of the Revlon Colorstay palettes has a burgundy shade? The palette I'm thinking of has like some light shades, some wine shades and I think the darkest one qualifies as burgundy!

I found only one in my stash. It's the L'Oréal Wear Infinité duo in Once Upon a Plum. The pigmentation is only OK, so I would suggest looking elsewhere.

I made a number of these with some cotton yard I had left over. They are great for cleaning and wear well. I use them in the kitchen and for cleaning the shower. I think they would work well as a washcloth as well. The only down side is that they get heavy when wet and take some time to dry.

are these real concerns or just ways to hurry things up?
what can I say to that?
Say whaaaaaa? I'm generally very good at deciphering OB bullshit, but I am going to have to look this one up.
My dr said the exact same thing when I brought it up to him. I did some research and it looks like that's kind of an old school belief. (I also wonder if he just doesn't want to take the time to wait.) It was the only part of my birth plan he won't agree to, so it's not a deal breaker for me as far as keeping him as my dr, but it really grates my nerves to know that it's perfectly fine to put baby directly on me. Since he won't delay clamping, we decided to donate the cord blood like we did with DS. I'm still pouting about it though.

Mount Chomolhari (23,997'), sacred abode of the goddess Chomo, stands as a mighty sentinel on Bhutan's snow-capped Tibetan frontier, reigning over countless icy summits and deep, magical forests where Himalayan blue sheep and snow leopard roam. This amazing trek is one of our favorites, bringing us through traditional hamlets, wild rhododendron forests, and alpine meadows to Jangothang, our spectacular camp right at the base of Chomolhari, with a return trek via the remote Yaksa Valley ("Valley of Yaks"). The Bhutanese have long protected their natural surroundings and their mountains are truly pristine, with a wealth of flora and fauna unrivaled in the Himalaya. This is a rare chance to experience superb trekking in an enchanting realm.
The trip was wonderful overall. Incredible scenery, great staff and interaction with local people in both the cities and the countryside. The food quality and variety in camp was surprising and delightful.
— Rob C., Concord, MA
Days 1-3
Paro / Taktsang
We fly to Bhutan's emerald-green Paro Valley, where our warm-up hikes include a walk up to the famed monastic retreat of Taktsang, the Tiger's Nest, built into a sheer cliff face 2,700 feet above the Paro Valley. Padmasambhava, the great 8th century Buddhist saint, is thought to have landed at this spot after flying over the mountains from Tibet on the back of a tigress, thus bringing the teachings of Buddhism to Bhutan. On Day 3, we head to our first camp.
Days 4-10
Chomolhari Trek / Jangothang / Yaksa Valley
Few travelers ever have the privilege of even visiting Bhutan, let alone trekking in its pristine mountains. With our Bhutanese camp staff and horsemen, we hike along rushing streams through deep forests of rhododendron and oak, then up into alpine country where herdsmen graze their yaks. When we reach Jangothang (13,340') at the base of Chomolhari, the magnificent ramparts of this sacred mountain seem close enough to touch. The vision of Soi Dzong, a ruined fortress built to guard against invasion from Tibet, adds to the mystique of the setting, and we may be able to spot wildlife such as musk deer and blue sheep. After an Exploration Day to savor the grandeur, our route crosses the 16,039-foot Bhongte La Pass into endless valleys where yak herders roam.
Days 11-13
Thimphu / Paro
Our explorations include Bhutan's school for traditional arts and the bustling weekend market. At our hotel's spa, optional hot-stone baths, a Bhutanese tradition, are the perfect post-trek indulgence. After an overnight in Paro, we depart on Day 13.
8-day trek on steep trails, 5-8 hours a day, altitudes between 8,500-16,039 feet

Gibsonburg resident Nathan "Nate" Kern, 36, died from injuries he suffered when the roof collapsed July 7 at the
Fremont Company, a vegetable packing plant at 802 North Front Street in Fremont.
Contributions to the memory of Kern are to be made to the Nate Kern Family Memorial at any Fifth Third Bank branch office. Officials at the Fifth Third branch in Gibsonburg say the fund was established as a scholarship fund for Kern's children, Raven and Daniel.
"Nate was a wonderful family provider and father," states his obituary, provided to The Press by Herman-Kim-Veh Funeral Home in Gibsonburg.
"He enjoyed riding his Harley and spending time with family and friends in 'Nate's Garage Club.' He also liked sports, especially the (Pittsburgh) Steelers and (New York) Yankees and shooting and starring in short films with his brothers," the obit continues.
Kern was once a lifeguard at White Star Park, Gibsonburg. During that time, he met his wife Maria "Mary" Diaz. They were married in Fremont on Sept. 11, 1998.
Three businesses plan to locate in the City of Oregon if permit filings in the city's building and inspection department are any indication.
According to records in the department, representatives of ALDI, Inc., Mattress Firm, Inc., and Gateway Recycling and Reduction, Inc., have filed for permits needed to either construct a building or move into existing structures.
ALDI, a discount grocery chain, intends to construct a 17,887-square-foot building at 3728 Navarre Ave.
The estimated construction cost is $1.1 million.
Jim Gilmore, commissioner of the building and inspection department, said the company has indicated it intends to use the front third or so of the 9.5-acre parcel for the building, which would sit across Navarre from a Walmart store.
Seven structures on the parcel will be razed, according to the permit.
ALDI opened 100 stores across the country in 2009 and said then it planned to open 100 stores this year, about a third of those in Texas, according to its website.
The first rain garden in the storm water community area of the Ottawa Soil and Water Conservation District has been completed at a memorial in the Allen Township Cemetery.
Allen Township officials and employees, volunteers, and OSWCD employees put the finishing touches on the garden recently.
"Structures like rain gardens help to slow runoff after heavy rains by allowing the water to slowly filter through the landscape," said Crystal Dymond, storm water technician for the OSWCD. "The native plants that are chosen can tolerate both wet and dry conditions because their roots are deeper than other plants and they are used to our local conditions. The native plants also help to filter out the bad elements in the soil before it drains in a waterway, stormwater drain, or in this case, a pond."
The township erected the memorial to honor veterans, firefighters, and their families and related organizations.
The township installed what is called "porous" pavement at the memorial.
Ceremony for marina improvements held
The renovations began in 2001 and continued throughout much of the decade.
Fifty new temporary docks were installed for boaters, with some later modified for permanent use.
In 2006, a 20-site primitive campground was constructed. In 2008, an improvement project to the marina entrance, including a new channel and revetments, was completed followed the next year by a floating docks project.
A 100,000-gallon elevated water storage tank has also been installed and construction is scheduled this summer for staff housing.
Sean Logan, director of the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, attended the dedication ceremony, which included a special recognition of former ODNR director Sam Speck.

As 2012 prepares to call it quits and retreats into the historic mists where expiring years go to join their calendrical ancestors near and far, the least we can do is thank the old boy. For, by any measure, these were a memorable 12 months, filled, in turn, by frustration and satisfaction. They encompassed a somnolent economy at home as well as a fragile European Union that threatened to fracture at any moment and take the euro with it, but managed through deft and delay to muddle through.
Besides the Old World teetering on the edge of, or already mired in, recession, worsened by a widespread veneration of austerity, the year drawing to a close was witness to a staccato recovery by a conspicuously less vigorous China; a lackluster performance of gold after decades of glistening gains; and, of all things, a neat cyclical-bull market in equities fueled by the dexterity of Uncle Ben and his counterparts around the globe in debasing their currencies and by investors' insatiable lust for yield in a zero-interest-rate world.
By no means does this exhaust the claims that the departing year can legitimately make for being extraordinary, but, at the very least, they bring into sharp relief the remarkable crosscurrents that raged from January right through its final waning hours, which were charged with anxiety spawned by the discomfiting presence of the fiscal cliff. It was, too, lest we forget, an election year, featuring the incredible implosion of Mitt Romney and triumph of Barack Obama, despite the handicap of a character tic that prompted him to give away the store every time he sat down to negotiate virtually anything with the perennially belligerent swamis of the GOP.
Retaining the presidency seems to have fortified Mr. Obama's spine, at least temporarily. In any event, the well-publicized, seemingly boundless enmity between the two parties hasn't been ameliorated one whit, as illustrated in their reluctance in the scant time remaining to thrash out some sort of makeshift agreement that would defer the fiscal strictures ordained by the law enacted as part of a 2011 deal to raise the debt ceiling. The howls you hear are from our beloved congressmen squealing about having their vacations from the cushiest job imaginable cut short and being forced to return to Washington in a Hail Mary effort to keep the nation from tumbling over that scary cliff.
THE PROSPECTS FOR THESE last-minute "heroics" look decidedly iffy. And further beclouding the picture is Mr. Boehner's inability to deliver the Republican vote in the House. But we can't really blame those GOP lawmakers, since they were no doubt confused by the speaker's unveiling an all-but-indecipherable Plan B, having forgotten apparently to devise a Plan A.
What we find truly absurd is how, as the clock ticked on, the markets complacently put their faith in the notion that the "smart money" (whoever they might be) was darn-near unanimous in endorsing the shibboleth that a deal had been cut by the legislators to circumvent the ever-more-menacing fiscal cliff. All by themselves, even casual spectators of the investment scene would almost instinctively know that when the consensus is so overwhelming, it's rarely right.
Even as we scribble these lines, the president is huddling with the so-called leaders of both parties to have one more shot at patching together a detour around that daunting cliff. Anything is possible, of course, but it would take the mother of all miracles to achieve a political truce that's an absolute prerequisite for that to happen, and Washington is not famous for conceiving even minor miracles.
The received opinion on the Street is that should all these last-ditch efforts come to naught, both the economy and the markets are destined to keel over. Obviously, it doesn't take all that much insight to come to that conclusion, and up to a point, it echoes our feeling. We suspect, though, that the impact will be greater on the markets than on the overall economy. And we draw some comfort from the fact that two economists, Michael Darda of MKM Partners and Paul Kasriel of Econtrarian, whose calls over the years have mostly been on the money and whose judgment we respect, don't think the world necessarily is coming to an end should we go over the cliff.
In his latest dispatch, Michael notes that an abrupt drop in consumer confidence in December as measured by the Conference Board, to 65.1 from the previous month's 71.5, got a lot of media coverage that connected it with the looming fiscal cliff. What didn't get more than a speck of attention was that the entire decline in Jane and John Q's confidence was in the volatile "expectations" category. By contrast, the "present situation index" advanced to a new cyclical high last month, and "jobs hard to get" hit a new low since recovery began.
None of this, commented Michael, is to say "there are no signs of risk aversion." Among them was that velocity of money remains depressed and "investors are literally paying the federal government to borrow from them" (which he takes as "making a mockery" of fears that the U.S. is headed for a fiscal crisis). He points out that the one comparable recession during the past 100 years, in 1945, involved a fiscal 10 times the size of the fiscal cliff and was also associated with a slowdown in monetary growth at a time when the velocity of money was falling. The Fed, Michael says, is making what he dubs "an open-ended effort to avoid such a scenario," and he believes it has a good chance to succeed.
Paul Kasriel retired last April as the designated prognosticator and economy-watcher for Northern Trust and is no stranger to this sacred space. What we particularly like about Paul are his willingness to stand apart from the crowd in sizing up the economic outlook and his leavening sense of humor, a missing element from most practitioners of the dismal science. Both qualities were very much in evidence in a recent paper he put out taking issue with the idea embraced by what he calls "the economist quacks" that we're headed for hell in a handbarrow (aka recession) if taxes go back to where they were during the Clinton era.
"I keep hearing," he explains, "that if tax rates and revenues rise, a huge amount of spending power will be sucked out of the economy." He asserts that's rubbish. "The Treasury is going to collect higher taxes from me and either transfer them to you or buy something from you. In other words, an increase in tax revenues will not 'suck' spending power out of the economy, but rather redistribute that spending power." He readily grants that "you may not like the outcomes of this redistribution," but suggests you not confuse it with a net decline in spending as a whole.
Paul also takes issue with the idea that Uncle Sam's spending is out of control. Does anyone bother to take a gander at the data? he wonders. No question that outlays soared when the economy fell out of bed at the start of the recession, and money was wildly pumped into the financial system and the like to contain the damage.
But when the concern that the recession would morph into depression subsided, so did the level of government spending. Since early 2010, growth in such expenditures, including entitlements, defense, interest, waste, and fraud have been, Paul reckons, "quite tame," indicating to him that the $1 trillion reduction in spending authorized by Congress back in 2011 "is biting."
We can't say we buy every bit of either Paul's or Michael's analyses and arguments. But we cotton to their contrarian take on the economy and the presumed fiscal crisis as worth sharing with you.
OUR FRIENDS AT BESPOKE Investment Group have come up with their variation of the "Dogs of the Dow" approach to playing the market. It consists of buying the 10 highest-yielding stocks in the Dow Jones Industrial Average at the start of every year. Last year, investors using this strategy found themselves barking up the wrong tree: The Dogs were up more than 7%, but the other 20 had an average gain of more than double that amount.
Nonetheless, over the years the Dogs have acquitted themselves quite well. So Bespoke has thoughtfully provided the likely pack for 2013 and their yields as of last week:

It isn't known why the infection progresses faster in these people. They may have already had another problem with their immune systems.

Hi. We are a couple from Yorkshire, UK that in 2012 decided to ditch our 9-5 jobs for an and extended trip around Asia. We spent a year on the road with no plans or idea what to expect and absolutely fell in love with travel and adventuring. We wrote our blog, Powered by Noodles which documented our journey and kept our friends and family in the loop.
Since this adventure we have not been able to settle and have embarked on a trip to Australia to enjoy a working holiday. We will keep you in the loop with our new blog.
Traveling, photography, art, reading, cooking, David Attenborough programmes (mainly Chelsea), sport (mainly Liam), walking.
So far... Paris, London, Kefelonia, Peak District, Cornwall, York, Snowdonia National Park, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia and Australia.

Wanna Bet?
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that although overall this game show is age-appropriate for most tweens and up, there is a fair amount of double entendre. Both male and female performers/contestants are congratulated on their looks, and the betting celebrities occasionally wager on whether the contestants will succeed at their challenges based on their appearances. Since the contestants aren't competing directly with each other, there're are fewer snarky, judge-type comments than on other reality contests.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's the story?
The premise of WANNA BET? is simple. Ordinary people who can perform some pretty odd stunts -- from hula-hooping a tractor tire to skiing over fresh eggs without breaking them -- get the opportunity to perform in front of the cameras, while minor celebrities like Corbin Bernsen bet on whether or not the contestants can pull it off. The celebs get $25,000 to work with; the winner gives their pot to charity.
Is it any good?
The scary thing about this show is the way it sucks you in. On paper, the premise sounds like it would be dreadful -- and yet, by the end of the first stunt, you can't help but cheer along with the performer.
British hosts Ant and Dec are charming -- and smart enough to keep the action moving. But ultimately, it's not the celebrities and the periodic, mildly off-color quips that offer the most entertainment. It's the stunts -- like the team of women who pit-stop a car against a team of professional men -- who get you cheering and laughing. Bottom line? It's silly, frothy, and an oddly fun way to spend an evening.
Families can talk about...
Families can talk about how the performers accomplish their various challenges. How do you think they learned to do such out of the ordinary things? Why do you think the contestants want to perform? Is it just to help win money for charity, or could they have other motivations? Why do people want to be on television?

- Was Iraq a hotbed of terrorism before the U.S. invasion?
- Are there other countries where the fight against terrorism would have a higher yield?
- Would the hundreds of billions we spent in Iraq have been better spent elsewhere?
- Are our borders, ports, chemical factories, etc., better protected now than before 9-11?
It is sad that, by our bumblings in Iraq, we have set up a school for terrorism. We have increased the number of fanatics willing to die to hurt us. It is even more sad that Gen. David Petraeus, when asked whether our battle in Iraq has made us safer, honestly answered that he did not know.
It is sad that we abandoned Afghanistan and our hunt for Osama bin Laden to invade Iraq. It is sad that we have not accomplished all that the 9-11 commission said we needed to do to prevent an attack in this country.
But the saddest of all is that the Bush administration has not fully taken responsibility for the mess they are going to leave for the poor Democrat who gets elected president. History will hopefully remember.

Moogles 'Regular' Guild Dungeon Attempts
Ok... Now that we've taken a town, rather than just one GD a week, I would like to at least attempt semi-regular GD's DURING the week for the sake of GP and PHAT LEWT. :py62:
We have to make up the 40k odd GP we've spent within the next 2 weeks and arguably some moar in chump change. So in addition to the weekly GD, does anyone have any suggestions? Personally (and this is just me) I would like to run 4 man VoO runs as often as humanly possible, this would mean every 2 days. VoO is ideally a 4 man run that's extremely farmable and nets us a total of 2200 GP in profit after the 500 GP for the key is paid for.
We can also host impromptu Marksburg and Snake Shrine runs for the lower levelled members if attendance is enough. All i'm suggesting is that instead of having to organize runs here and there, we should allow/do more impromptu on the spot runs.
I will also go off the bat and say that responsibility must be taken. The person who wants to do the run, if the run fails, he/she must pay the key cost in GP by buying a Guild Operation Book and compensating for the wasted GP. If i say hey, lets do VoO, and drag 3 other ppl with me and we fail... I'll be biting the bullet and paying the 500 GP key cost back out of my own pocket.
That being said, what do you all think of this? I know there will be some who will argue that it may potentially isolate members here and there, but this is why we also have our usual weekend PLANNED runs.
I'd be down for regualar VoO runs, and possibly marks, I just have so much going on in the game atm and shitty internet cutting into that time that I have prioritize (which is why I missed the last marks sorry :/) but yeh I'm in for this, just like nation is working towards daily gs, we have the patronage for bi-daily GD or even daily.
I dunno, that's 3 guild op books for a failed VoO run.
But I don't mind that we set up semi-daily GD runs (likely VoO), followed by a daily weekend GD run (likely Snake/Marks). Only question is "time" and "availability."
Ok, how about this... Lets say i wanted to do an impromptu VoO run for the absolute utter flaming hell of it. If i pay the cost UP FRONT by mailing you 3 guild op books... it'd be fine right?
Coz then it's moot either way. If we clear it, yay profit. If we don't, no loss at all. I'm quite happy to pay the full cost of the keys myself if i wanted to start a run on my own selfishness.
Only problem is both sides of the world will only be synced in the weekend. Weekday runs would inevitably involve only one hemisphere at a time, I guess.
Impromptu runs are paid for by the individual that wants to do it. Succeed or fail, they foot the bill for the key so that the cost to the guild is zero. If the succeed of course the guild benefits. If they fail, then well... no loss to anyone except the individual.
Thoughts? Personally i don't see a problem as there is no LOSS to anyone. My view and logic at this point is the dungeons are UNUSED during the week, therefore any EXTRA activity that happens outside of the usual Guild Sponsored(tm) runs is a BONUS. Whether or not the individual who paid for the key succeeds or fails in whatever they want to do, there is zero loss or liability to the guild. If the succeed, the guild benefits.
I personally call that a win/win. :py53:
PS: This is also so i can drag you to VoO without any preparation whatsoever, for the absolute hell of it... you know that right? :py05:
Actually I think it'd be better if everyone who went for the failed run chipped in for the key cost.. that way the cost of failing would be negligible for all parties, no?
I'll gladly come, after all VoO is a billion times easier than Ind. 105 rofl.
You srsly think it's easier than 105?... :py28:
And meh, i thought about that but basically... impromptu runs are planned or decided by either an individual or a small group who just wanna do it for the hell of it. What they choose to do amongst themselves is up to them really. I'm just laying the foundation for the lowest common denominator aspect that SOMEONE just has to pony up the responsibility cost of it. Doesn't matter who.
It's like car pooling... the driver may make everyone pay, or he can be nice and not do. :py60:
I suppose that makes sense... how are we going to sort out the keys though? It's quite odd that they don't allow COs to buy GD keys (or have they fixed that already..?).
Cube farming is a *****.. but the regular mobs are pretty manageable? At least you don't have to deal with AP drain, massive damage and stun all at once ~_~
Just leave cube farming for a planned major run with high number of participants.
Plus all the impromptu GD participants shouldn't consist mostly of random osiris hackers.
I would love to be a part of this, as I get on more often on weekdays than weekends. I'll be able to contribute a lot more once I hit 100 though, which may not be happening for a long time considering how much I can play in the next few months.
Nah, CO's can't buy keys. From a personal standpoint, everytime I want to run VoO, i will be throwing 3 guild books at Boomy. That way everyone can rest assured that the cost is paid for, feel free to fail like pro.
The whole point of this is to just 'kick back, have fun and hit something'. I aim to hopefully get us to the point where we can farm VoO as casually as we can farm Ind90/94/98/101. If we can get to that point, not only will GP be coming in very fast, but the profit is also good.
While VoO is on cooldown, impromptu Snake and Marksburg runs can be done for GP's sake.
I hope you guys understand my angle that i'm coming from here. It's basically a case of just going 'hey, VoO?' 'Yeh?' 'K, lets go'. That sorta thing. ZERO planning. Whoever is around to come, come. Whoever misses out, there is always the next one.
I see you on every night, at the usual time that you usually want to do an ind. So yeah, not a problem, instead of ind we'll just VoO instead.
I can see daily VoO runs happening very easily. I heard it could be solo'd by someone with 1m might. So if you have 3-4 people with 550k-600k+ might you should have no problem. Unless you all pull a Pho and sit around talking about how pho is a noodle dish and not a soup.
I hate you mudkip :<
...O wait, we talking about FOOD here?... :py62:
As far as the solo bit goes... Approx 1m to 1.2m assuming the might is largely coming from the WEAPONS. +10 weapons are mandatory. But yeah, it can. There is a reason VoO is at most a 4 man run.

Ford Transit News & Reviews
About Ford
Henry Ford established the Ford Motor Company in 1903, and five years later came the Model T that cranked up the beginning of the company's success on the world's first mass-production assembly line. Iconic models were launched in the '40s (F-series pick-up), '50s (Thunderbird) and '60s (Mustang, Transit) on the way to starting a long period of global sales success with other famous nameplates including Cortina, Fiesta, Capri and Escort. The company has also taken on motorsport in earnest: the GT40 was created purely to defeat Ferrari at Le Mans, and duly did so from 1966 to 1969, and 1967 saw the birth of Ford's Cosworth-developed DFV V8 that powered 12 drivers with various teams to Formula One titles between 1968 and 1982. Australians, of course, have long associated the Blue Oval badge with the Falcon – a model produced here since 1960 – and its 2004 SUV spin-off, the Territory. In 2013, however, Ford Australia announced it would end local manufacturing in October 2016 to transition into an import-only business.Read more

Take an honest look at expenses
Dear Jill: My husband just lost his job, and we need to make some big changes to how we shop. I read your column often but am not a die-hard coupon user. I think your advice is practical and would like help deciding what we absolutely could stop buying for a while until we get back on our feet and adjust to the new normal around here. Don't mince words -- I am looking for a solid list of things we could just cross off buying for a while. Can you help? -- Ambrosia
I'm reminded of a friend who suddenly found herself in a tight situation financially. Her family immediately stopped going out to eat, taking the kids to the movies and other nonessential activities that were fun, but were costing them money that they couldn't afford to spend.
A few weeks into her decision not to spend on anything other than "needs," we were talking and she mentioned the pedicure she'd gotten the previous day. I was a little surprised, and without trying to come across as condescending or judgmental I simply asked how much the pedicure cost. She replied "$35." I asked how often she got a pedicure, and she said "Every week. It's something I have to do just 'for me.'" I looked at her and simply said "You can buy a lot of bottles of nail polish for $35 per week."
She turned to me and immediately had the realization that she was spending about $140 each month that she didn't have. Her pedicures were a luxury that she perceived to be a necessity. After that, a week later she told me she'd given herself a pedicure at home for the first time, and she'd also bought several bottles of nail polish for 99 cents after coupons.
Here is a list of items that one could easily stop buying without significant lifestyle repercussions:
Laundry and cleaning: Air fresheners and fragrance sprays, stain pre-treater sprays, scented candles, prepackaged cleaning wipes, fabric softener liquid or sheets.
Kitchen: Paper towels, paper napkins, disposable plates or tableware, cooking oil spray.
Avoid buying specialized cleaners like countertop cleaner, stovetop cleaner or toilet bowl cleaner -- simply use a general cleaning product for these surfaces.
