I watched the NCAA Selection Show last Sunday with a friend. The Ducks, already a lock for their first tournament in five years, had iced their seeding cake by winning the Pac-12 Tournament in Las Vegas. It was going to be a fun hour. How high could the Ducks jump? Seven seed? Six seed? We knew this: Oregon, always a streaky team, were trending up at the right time; four of the team's six losses came without starting point guard Dominique Artis, and the Ducks had hung around the top 25 all season. A five seed? Probably not, but it was certain that Oregon would be favored in their first tournament game.
When the venerable Greg Gumbel was in the midst of unveiling the Midwest Region, Oklahoma State was read as the five seed. My friend said, this could be Oregon. Turns out my friend is a lot smarter than me. Because I said no way, Oregon, the Pac-12 conference champion, a twelve seed? Not a chance.
Oregon's seeding was just plan wacky. It wasn't infuriating as much as it was bewildering, frustrating as much as it was inconceivable. Did the selection committee watch the games? Was East Coast bias to blame? Would the Ducks have missed out on the tournament all together if they hadn't beaten UCLA for the conference championship? Another question: Could the committee read the standings? Because Oregon, the Pac-12 conference tournament winner, was seeded lower than any other Pac-12 team in the tournament, except California – and the Golden Bears got a 12 seed as well. The Ducks were seeded six lines higher than UCLA, who the Ducks are convincingly 2-0 against this year. Six lines above Arizona, another team the Ducks haven't lost to this season. Oregon was below Colorado, who the Ducks finished far beyond in the regular season standings and the conference tournament sweepstakes.
The Ducks were seeded lower than Belmont and Bucknell, a 12-loss Minnesota team and a 13-loss Villanova team that got a nine seed. Could the selection committee not stay up the night that the Ducks won the tournament of one of the five best leagues in America? The Ducks are a two-loss team with Artis in the lineup. Two losses would tie Oregon for the best record in the country.
So yes, the Ducks got hoodwinked, swindle, screwed by the idiotic committee. And that makes this NCAA Tournament a lot more interesting. I think most traditional "blackboard" material is overrated, but this is fantastic motivation. Oregon Head Coach Dana Altman has been saying all the right things but in his first NCAA tourney with the Ducks, he and the team must have be peeved. If they are half as angry as Ducks fans were Sunday, they'll blow through Oklahoma State.
Oregon has a stage now. The CBS crew covering Selection Sunday immediately latched onto the Oregon snub – one of the worst in tournament history – and asked the various selection committee representatives and leaders why the Ducks got such a low seed. The half-baked, scatter-brained company line that it was the bracket structure's fault that Oregon dropped from an 11 to 12 made the committee look even worse, and drew more sympathy from the national media for the Ducks case. In short, Oregon went from a tournament nobody to a tournament somebody. The program finally has a stage. Now, to show up the committee and keep the spotlight, they have to beat the Cowboys.
Outside of Eugene, the city that was feeling worse Sunday night was Stillwater. Oklahoma State had a good year, they have a good team, and they didn't deserve to meet a true seven seed as a five seed in the first round. Still, this isn't a good matchup for the Ducks. OSU's point guard, Marcus Smart, is an NBA lottery pick. He could take advantage of the undersized Jonathan Loyd and Artis, who is limping into the tournament nursing his ankle injury. The Cowboys are better defensively than the Ducks, and properly seeded team has more talent.
But in March Madness, you can rarely break down close games by x's and o's. Coaching, intangibles, and momentum decide games at tournament time. Altman will out-coach Travis Ford; he has done a fantastic job this year and the Ducks have played their best in big games this year. Oregon will be beyond motivated, while the Cowboys could get caught feeling sorry for themselves. And while OK. State bowed out early of the Big XXI Tournament, the Ducks come in having won their last three tournament games. Oregon can pull this game off – the 12 over 5 happens more than any other upset.
Oregon is slammed all the way around in this seeding deal. If they beat Oklahoma State, they run into tournament darling and tough-as-nails St. Louis, and the winner of that third round game gets the overall number one seed Louisville. It's not going to be easy for Oregon. They have everything lining up against them. So naturally, this is the best time to make an NCAA run. Who knows? The Ducks could turn their shambolic seeding around and become Cinderella 2013.

- 3 pounds crab apples
- 3 cups water
- Approximately 5 cups sugar
Wash the fruit and cut into halves, but do not core or peel. Place pieces into a kettle, add the water and bring to a boil on high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes, covered, until apples are soft. Strain fruit through a jelly bag. Measure juice; you should have about 6 cups. Cook the juice in batches of 3-4 cups at a time. For each cup of juice, add 3/4 cup of sugar and set aside. Boil the juice rapidly for about 5 minutes. Now add sugar, stirring constantly until sugar dissolves and boil rapidly again. After 5 minutes, start test for jelly. Place a small amount of jelly in a spoon, cool slightly and let it drop back into the kettle from the side of the spoon. As the syrup thickens, 2 large drops will form along the edge of the spoon, 1 on either side. When the 2 drops come together and fall as 1 drop, it is the sheeting stage (220 degrees F on a jelly thermometer. Remove from heat and ladle into hot, sterilized jars and seal immediately. Makes about 5 half-pints.

Tyrone holds the line on tax millage rate
The Tyrone Town Council on Aug. 21 held with tradition and did not raise the millage rate on property taxes. That said, the 2.889-mill tax rate amounts to an increase since more revenue will be generated because property values have increased.
The millage rate was approved by unanimous vote. The increase in property tax revenue is projected to be $14,229, a 1.8 percent increase. The total number of dollars anticipated to be collected in property tax for 2014 is $920,468, according to Town Manager Kyle Hood.
"During budget preparation, the town committed to maintaining its maintenance and operations millage rate at the 2.889 mills that it had been for the better part of the past decade. However, for the first time in several years, the assessed value of the new construction and existing real and personal properties within the town limits have increased and a roll-back millage was calculated at 2.838 mills," Hood said in a previous statement.
Hood said Georgia law requires that a government rollback the millage rate to the number of mills that will produce the same number of dollars in revenue from the year before. Despite the decreasing valuation of the properties in Tyrone over the past five to six years, the mayor and Town Council relied on the same millage rate.

It's not that difficult – once you get past Generation Z, you start over with double letters, like Generation AA.
Generation E for Entitled.
I keep bumping heads with boomers in goobermint who label me "entitled". I'm struggling to find employment thanks to my previous employer banning me from campus because my boss lied to campus officials to get me fired. One lady from the Crisis center in town actually asked me, "What makes you think you are entitled to a job?" My response was, "Well if I don't get one, the state is going to be providing food, housing, and healthcare for my *#$ for the next 40 years whether it wants to or not." I went to college. When the college ejected me for a student loan brew-ha-ha, I turned my student hourly job into a full-time one through continuous self-training while struggling to pay down the run-away student debt. Then after 17 years, the university dumps me because little Miss Popularity wants to hire her family member? I don't think so.

Cover Story: Dreamcatchers
Photo by Daniel Kramer
Sage Beene, a kid with long black hair twisted in braids down his back stood in a pink spotlight, playing a hand drum and singing a song he composed while about 100 members of the tribe and a few guests sat listening in the darkness. The song was a blend of everything - it sounded like the blues, like Buddy Holly, and like it could have been sung around an ancient fire centuries before Europeans showed up and pushed Europeans off their land and onto reservations.
Beene was the first to compete in the hand drum competition on Tribe Week, a celebration of the tribe's restoration to the federal government in 1987, but no one was surprised when it was announced he'd won the contest. He brought a feel to the music so that it sounded very old and completely new, like the tribe itself.
The Alabama-Coushatta have been on this patch of land in East Texas for generations, reinventing themselves as the years pass. Now they are struggling against the forces of the modern world to hang onto who they are, but the deciding factor may come from forces far off from the world of the reservation - the federal government. Read about it in this week's cover story.

As expected when the regular season ended, it has come down to the MVP Derrick Rose-led Chicago Bulls and the collaboration of supreme talent in South Beach.
Who will prevail? The seemingly favored and stacked Miami Heat? Or the team that smashed preseason expectations in the Chicago Bulls?

Have you tried using a head cleaning tape? They may be hard to find, but a wet head cleaning tape-they come with a bottle of cleaning solution that you place a few drops in an opening, and then place in the vcr and playback for a minute.
Though your description of the image quality sounds like it may be beyond a simple remedy like this, but it's worth a try. Perhaps you could find a local tv/electronics repair shop and call and ask if they still service vcrs.

The Cathedral of St Michael and St George is the home of the Anglican Diocese of Grahamstown in Grahamstown, South Africa, in the Eastern Cape Province. It is the episcopal seat of the Bishop of Grahamstown. The cathedral is located on Church Square and has the tallest spire in South Africa 176 feet (54 m).[2] The cathedral is dedicated to St Michael and St George and celebrates its patronal festival on the Sunday closest to Michaelmas (29 September).
The Society for the Propagation of the Gospel had voted £500 in 1820 for the erection of a church in Cape Town, this gift was declined by the Governor, Lord Charles Somerset. However, while he was in England next year, he wrote to Lord Bathurst, the Secretary of State for War (who administered the colonies), asking him to obtain the £500 for Grahamstown, where
|there is a British Population of upwards of 3000 persons (including the Military) totally destitute of any place of Worship whatever, and under the circumstances that no assistance can be expected to be derived from its Inhabitants in the erection of a Church, they being all Settlers or Soldiers.[3]
The Society very generously agreed, and voted the £500 for Grahamstown, the balance of the money needed was supplied by the colonial treasury. Plans were prepared by W Jones, a land surveyor of Cape Town, and the building erected by George Gilbert also of Cape Town. Sir George Cory thus summarizes the agreement entered into by these persons, and dated 9 September 1824:
|The walls from the foundations up to the height of the galleries to be 2ft. 6in. thick and horn there to the roof 2ft. 3in. One side wall was to be supported by two buttresses and the other by three. The roof was to be of thatch. A square tower to be taken up 10 feet higher than the roof and to have a flat top covered with lime and shells. The floors where not occupied by pews to be paved with stone; the "communion" to be raised one foot above the level of the floor and to consist of two equal steps. The columns under the galleries to be of wood, square and framed with panels. Mr Gilbert was allowed to cut down any timber, quarry stone and take clay for bricks from the nearest Government land and to be paid Rds54,000 (£4,050).[4]
It was later decided to use zinc for the roof instead of thatch at an additional cost of Rds 4,730 (£354 15s.). Even so, the roof caused further delays in the completion of the building, which was not opened until 1830.[5] The new church was of course not consecrated, but it bore the name of St George's. The fragment of it that remains, the south wall, is the oldest piece of English Church architecture in the country.[6]
William Geary, the first Colonial Chaplain of Grahamstown (who was appointed and removed by Bathurst), reached the scene of his labours in February 1823. The Colonial Chaplain was frankly a member of the civil service, all collection plate moneys received were paid straight into the public treasury, and when the Chaplain needed anything, he had to apply for it through the same channel as any other civil servant.
|The Colonial Secretary is ,therefore requested to forward "a tankard, two cups, four plates, a table-cloth, and a surplice". These were received on 8 September following, less the surplice, and Geary then wanted a Bible and a Prayer-Book.
An interesting figure reached Grahamstown in 1833. This was John Heavyside, a missionary of S.P.G. in India. After doing duty at Stellenbosch and elsewhere, he was appointed acting Chaplain at Grahamstown, the appointment being made permanent in 1838. At the time of his arrival, St George's had developed so far as to have a slightly more ecclesiastical form of administration than the landdrost. This was the Church Committee, which probably came into existence at the time the building was opened. Members were appointed by the Government, on the recommendation of the committee. This method of administration was changed by the Church Ordinance of 1839 (during the governorship of Sir George Napier), which remained in force until 1891. The ordinance is an imposing document,
|" enacted by the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope, with the advice and consent of the Legislative Council thereof," and to "be judicially taken notice of by all Judges, Magistrates, and others without being specially pleaded." It handed over the "administration and management of all matters connected with the church of Graham's Town, commonly called St George's Church" to a vestry of not more than eight persons. This vestry was to be elected annually on the second Tuesday in March by "a general meeting of the male inhabitants of Graham's Town aforesaid, and of the parochial limits thereof, being members of, and holding communion with, the united Church of England and Ireland as by law established."
They were to elect churchwardens out of their own number. The "officiating minister for the time being" (there is no word as to his appointment, which was still in the hands of Government) was to preside at all meetings of the vestry. The vestry took over all powers and possessions of the church committee, and was made a corporation capable of suing and being sued. In 1841 the meaning of the words "holding, communion" was queried, and the Attorney-General decided that they did not mean what they said, but that any one professing to be a churchman was a full member of the Church. Governors and colonial chaplains and landdrosts obtaining communion vessels and Royal Engineers (they inspected the building of the church) and pew-rents and church ordinances and secretaries of state for war-it is a queer, mad sort of story[7]
Robert Gray was consecrated as Bishop of Cape Town on St Peter's Day in 1847. He arrived in South Africa on 20 February 1848 and visited Grahamstown on 5 October 1848. At a meeting with the vestry of St George's the bishop explained that he could not consecrate the church as it was not yet conveyed to the see. On 7 June 1849
|the Governor of the Colony, in the name and on behalf of Her Majesty, granted the site to Dr Gray, the Bishop of Cape Town, and his successors in the See, on condition that the land hereby granted shall for ever hereafter be used for ecclesiastical purposes in connexion with the Church of England, and to and for no other purpose whatsoever.
Another visitation followed and on 21 September 1850 he consecrated the church and churchyard. "The church was full, the parishioners appearing to take a deep interest in the matter."[8]
The Diocese of Grahamstown was founded in 1853 with John Armstrong as the first bishop. During the oversight of Bishop Nathaniel Merriman when Frederick Henry Williams was dean, conflict arose between the two regarding the status of the Church of the Province of Southern Africa versus the Church of England and the validity of the appointments of bishops. Dean Williams then excluded Bishop Merriman from his cathedral. This action resulted in many court cases which Williams won.
Various schemes had been discussed from time to time for the building of a more worthy cathedral, but nothing was done until 1874, when it was discovered that the original tower, in which the town clock had been placed, was in danger. Dean Williams set about the work of collecting funds and was loyally supported by the vestry. Plans were prepared for the tower and spire as part of a complete new building by Sir George Gilbert Scott, at that time the most notable leader of the Gothic revival. He made a free gift to Grahamstown of the various plans and working details and the building of the "Public Clock Tower", as it was called, was carried through by the committee without employing a contractor. The tower and spire were finished in 1878.
Merriman died in 1882 and was succeeded by Allan Becher Webb, then Bishop of Bloemfontein. Webb was elected on 7 March 1883. Dean Williams would not recognise Webb as bishop either so, in November 1883, Webb set up his throne in an iron building (formerly a skating rink) on the site of the present post office to which the name of St Michael's Pro-Cathedral was given. But after Williams's death in August 1885, negotiations between the bishop and the select vestry were begun. Webb became "officiating minister" (the term used in the Church Ordinance) of St George's and officiated at the services on Christmas Day in 1885. After the reconciliation, the building was repaired and Webb began to collect funds for carrying the erection of a worthy cathedral one stage further. After attending the Lambeth Conference of 1888, he returned with £3,000 collected in England. The plans for the chancel were prepared by John Oldrid Scott while William White-Cooper acted as superintending architect and designed several of the fittings. The foundation-stone was laid by Henry Loch, the Governor of the Colony, on 29 January 1890. The completed structure was consecrated by the Bishop Webb on All Saints' Day in 1893 in the presence of the Metropolitan, West Jones, and other bishops.[9]
A new nave, designed by John Oldrid Scott, was dedicated in 1912, just eight days short of the centenary of the establishment of Grahamstown. It is Victorian neo-gothic in style, with a granite and sandstone exterior, plastered interior walls with marble pillars. The building of the cathedral was finally completed in 1952 with the addition of the Lady Chapel. It can accommodate about 500 people.
The deanery is a large Victorian house set in its own grounds adjacent to the cathedral hall. It has reception rooms and a study for the dean on the ground floor and completely private quarters above. There is an additional "bed-sit" attached which is suitable for short-term guests of the parish or the dean. The sub-deanery is a modern four-bedroom house with adequate reception rooms, a very small study, a garage and its own entrance, backing on to the deanery.
Historical controversy[edit]
The cathedral was the religious center of the community of Grahamstown. Graham's Town was originally a military outpost on the Eastern Frontier of the Cape Colony. It was founded by Colonel John Graham. The British campaign to push the amaXhosa residents from the Eastern frontier was defined by Graham's plan to use "A proper degree of terror."[10] A number of the battles of the Xhosa Wars were centred around Grahamstown.
The cathedral became the primary location for memorials to those fallen soldiers of the conflicts between the original residents of the lands and the European settlers. Many of these memorials refer to the opposition in the battles, using terms which are no longer acceptable in the Rainbow Nation of South Africa. Today, these memorial plaques are covered as an acknowledgement of the diversity in the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. Nevertheless, the early days of the Anglican church in Grahamstown demonstrates the unstable nature of the relationship between the indigenous peoples and the English Settlers and the ongoing place of reconciliation in South Africa. A quote from John Armstrong, the first bishop of Grahamstown attests to this controversial history:
|On the calm, quiet day, as we were travelling along so peacefully, the rumours of war could not but come back to us, as our drivers pointed out the spots where many a bitter struggle for life had taken place, and especially where a body of poor Sappers had been surprised and slaughtered by the Kafirs in the late war.[11]
Dean of Grahamstown[edit]
The Dean of Grahamstown is the incumbent of the Grahamstown Cathedral, Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. The dean has other duties and roles set out in the "Deed of Constitution and Statutes of the Chapter of the Cathedral of St Michael and St George, Grahamstown" which is an appendix to the acts of the Diocese of Grahamstown. The 20th and current dean is Andrew Hunter who was appointed in 2008.
The first ring of bells to be installed in Africa was hung in the Grahamstown Cathedral tower in 1879. The bells, an octave cast by John Warner and Sons in London, were supplied complete with fittings and with a frame of English oak.
The first ring of bells to be installed in Africa was hung in the cathedral tower in 1879. The bells, an octave cast by John Warner and Sons in London, were supplied complete with fittings and with a frame of English oak. The chancel was consecrated by Bishop Webb on 1 November 1893 and was dedicated to both St George and St Michael to mark the healing of a historic breach in the diocese. In 1902 remedial work was undertaken on the bell frame and fittings in the tower.
The frame was assembled in the tower by local labour but not, apparently, in the way in which Warners had intended. Henry Carter Galpin[a], a local clockmaker, had been employed by the town council to install the town clock in the cathedral tower. He wished it to strike on bells other than those intended by Warners and modified the frame accordingly, placing one bell in a subsidiary frame raised above the other bells. As a result, seven of the eight bells swung in the same direction. This made the bells extremely difficult to ring and it is probable that they were only, initially, swung chimed. In 1887 it was reported that the joint of the bell frame "require tightening up throughout".[citation needed]
In 1902 remedial work was undertaken on the bell frame and fittings and a band was in training under the tuition of a "Cape Town expert", a Mr Stephens. In 1903 the ringers were "Mr Lancaster (Captain), Dr Drury, Messrs G. Barnes, Charles Cory, Huntly and Walker".[citation needed] The bell frame, however, still gave trouble and ringing ceased in 1913.
In 1959 "Mr Eardley from Stoke-on-Trent ... fitted new ropes"[citation needed] and undertook sufficient maintenance to enable four bells to be rung. In 1968 a change ringing band was formed under the tuition of Paul Spencer, who had learned to ring at Armitage Bridge in Yorkshire, and Bill Jackson, who had learned at Dalton-in-Furness in Lancashire.
In 1993, supported by Rhodes University, the bells were rehung in a new steel frame donated by Koch's Cut and Supply Steel Centre of Pinetown, Durban, with new headstocks provided by Eayre and Smith (Overseas) Ltd, now part of John Taylor & Co. The frame was designed by Dr Ray Ayres with pits for ten bells and was assembled in the tower by local labour guided by Dave Webster of Eayre and Smith and by Colin Lewis. The first peal on the bells was rung on 17 December 1995, conducted by Alan Regin in 3 hours and 12 minutes: Cambridge Surprise Major.
In 1997 two trebles, cast the previous year in London at the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, were added to the ring.[12] The first peal on the ten was rung on 4 April 1998, conducted by Timothy G. Pett in 3 hours 19 minutes: Cambridge Surprise Royal.
By the end of 2000, five peals and 27 quarter-peals had been rung on the bells.

Bell ringing in Grahamstown today[edit]
The band presently ring call-changes and Plain Hunts on Sundays from 18:00–18:55. Rhodes University used to offer a course leading to the Certificate in Change Ringing.
Bell ringing at Hillandale[edit]
The Cathedral band also ring at Hillandale, some 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from Grahamstown, where there is a light-weight ring of four bells at the Monastery of the Order of the Holy Cross that was installed in 1999. Ringing there is under the direction of the Cathedral Ringing Master. By the end of July 2001, four quarter-peals had been rung at Hillandale, all by the Cathedral band.
Memorial for Joshua Davis Norden. [b]
Notes and references[edit]
- ^ H.C. Galpin was the father of Ernest Edward Galpin, botanist and banker
- ^ This tablet is on the west wall of the cathedral and commemorates Joshua Davis Norden (1803–46), who arrived at Algoa Bay with Wilson's party in the Belle Alliance in May 1820. After various farming disasters, Norden opened an auctioneer's business in Grahamstown in 1835, became a commissioner of the municipality and established a burgher force for the defence of the town ("Norden's Yeomanry"). He was killed in action during the War of the Axe; his body was recovered and buried with full military honours in the Jewish cemetery. His fellow soldiers erected the plaque in the cathedral.[13][14]

Nacchio was convicted in 2007 of selling $52 million in stock of Denver-based Qwest based on inside information. He was ordered to forfeit $44 million and to pay a $19 million fine. He also was sentenced to five years and 10 months in prison.
Nacchio and his wife say in court documents that they want a refund of $18 million in taxes they paid on the $52 million they gained from the stock sales, since the court ordered Nacchio to forfeit that gain.
Attorneys for Nacchio and the U.S. government made verbal arguments in a Washington courtroom Tuesday. KUSA-TV in Denver reports it's not clear when a judge will rule.

Are we starting to see more and more bubbles on the horizon? Earlier on in the Fed's quantitative easing cycle we worried about bubbles appearing in such markets as commodities and emerging market securities. Currently, we are seeing behavior that could be attributed to "bubble-like" behavior that could enlarge in the future into full-blown bubbles.
For example, we read in the Wall Street Journal that private equity companies are "adding debt to the companies they own in order to fund payouts to themselves." This is not a new practice, but it is one that has been revived given the financial conditions that exist in the market place today. It is not illegal, but it is controversial.
The companies, in the process of being re-tooled, issue debt, "high-yield debt", which investors scrambling for yield go for. This cash gained from this debt is distributed in the form of dividends to the buyout groups owning the companies. This is called "dividend recapitalization."
The deals are risky because the default rate can be higher than on debt issues that are not used just for dividend payments. The Journal article reports that the default rate on some of these bonds was 13 percent during the 2006 to 2010 period.
Another place we are seeing some kind of a "boom" taking place is in the housing market. Housing starts were up by 15 percent in September to their highest level since September of 2008. This increase has gotten a lot of people all worked up because they believe that this is providing additional evidence that the housing market is staging a rally.
This euphoria is being transferred to some stock market analysts. (See "U.S. Stocks Rally Spurs Predictions of All-time Peak" in the Financial Times.)
"Momentum is a powerful force. U.S. stocks have smartly outperformed analyst expectations this year riding a wave of central bank intervention and an improving housing market. Now, making up for their earlier downbeat forecasts, some strategists are predicting the market could hit a record high in 2013."
But, what seems to be happening? I have written about this in an earlier post, "Here We Go Again: the Goosing of the Mortgage Market."
It seems as if many of the largest banks in the country are benefiting from an increase in mortgage lending. Both Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) and JPMorgan Chase (NYSE:JPM), along with several of the other larger banks in the United States, posted strong earnings. The strength of these earnings have been attributed to their creation (and sale) of many new mortgages.
But, a substantial portion of these origins are going into mortgage-backed bonds, structured credits. Who are getting the mortgages? They are wealthier homeowners who satisfy the banks' new higher credit qualifications.
And others? Well, they are not so lucky. As is mentioned in an editorial in the Financial Times: "Roughly a fifth of U.S. homeowners are still trapped in negative equity, where their mortgages are worth more than their homes. And large parts of the house-buying population remain shut out by hyper-cautious banks."
And, who else might be benefiting from all the "loose" money rumbling around in the U.S. economy? Well, it seems as if some hedge funds are also profiting from the mortgage "boom." See, for example, "Hedge Funds Reap Gains from MBS" and "Funds Enjoy Fed Boost for Bundled Debt Deals." In this latter article we read, "One hedge fund strategy has stood out for its performance ahead of all others this year: 'structured credit."
However, there is no indication that the housing pickup is going to result in a lot faster economic growth. According to the Financial Times, "Housing Pickup Shows Limits." Even a full scale housing recovery "may not be enough to spur rapid growth in the economy."
The reason for this is that "construction and house prices have fallen so far that even rapid growth adds only slowly to the total output, while worries such as the end-of-2012 "fiscal cliff" of tax rises and spending cuts threaten large and immediate harm."
"Housing offsets but doesn't overwhelm a lot of the other headwinds," says Michael Hanson, senior U.S. economist at Bank of America Merrill Lynch in New York.
The danger is that the credit inflation created by the federal government and the Federal Reserve System may be moving from the government right into the hands of the big banks, the hedge funds, private equity funds, and wealthier individuals. It might be moving right into the hands of these institutions and people with little impact on economic growth.
This process was recognized by Paul Volcker, former Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in the 1980s as he attempted to lead the battle against the inflation being experienced in the United States at that time. (See my review of the new book on Paul Volcker by William Silber.) Volcker observed that expectations can be transferred right into prices or increased credit expansion with little or no impact upon economic production or output. Once these expectations "kick in", monetary policy, to be effective, must overcome the impact that these expectations have on economic decisions.
This, to me, is the danger we face in the economy and financial markets at this time. "Helicopter Ben" and the Federal Reserve have inserted massive amounts of funds into the financial system. They are in the process, through QE3, of injecting even more liquidity into the economy.
Right now, these injections are starting to produce "profits" in the financial area. The injections are having little or no impact on economic growth or the use of resources.
However, they are starting to produce outcomes that look a little bit like the start of some "bubbles." If they continue to keep the "foot on the accelerator" it would seem like these beginnings could turn into real bubbles. And, guess who is going to benefit from the bubbles? It is not going to be the unemployed and the less wealthy

Services like Twitter has initiated the concept of URL shortener and now a days, we keep hearing about new URL shortening services. I have been using many of them, and many of them work great. Especially, when you are sharing anything on Twitter, it's better to use any of below mentioned URL Shortener Websites, so that your tweet will be less than 140 characters and can be retweetable by others. Most of the popular Websites and web services are coming up with their custom shorteners. For example: Google URL shortening link is Goo.gl. Facebook (20 comments)

How to Install ActiveCollab Project Management Tool on Server
To run a successful project, having a project management tool is an important part. Specially when you have a team to work upon a project, it's important to have a project management tool which can help your team to sync. I have tried Basecamp in the past and some free online project management tool like Freedcamp. Though nothing is as solid and simple as Active collab. The only downside is it's a premium tool. But, quality always comes with a price tag. Is int it? The best thing I like about AC is, it's self hosted so you don't need to rely on 3rd party (8 comments)

Who We Are
A Camping Family
At age eight Spencer Boyd went to camp. There was a polio epidemic in Atlanta so his four week session stretched into nine weeks of riding, hiking, swimming, and camping his way through the NC Mountains. When he finally returned home to begin the school year Spencer stepped out of the car, looked his father in the eye, and said that when he grew up he would be a camp director. In 1954, between his Junior and Senior years at the University of Georgia, he made good his promise, and started his first camp with only 20 campers. In 1962, shortly after his return from the Air Force, Spencer met and married Dorothy Coe. Parents of six sons themselves, Spencer and Dot have spent a lifetime together providing summers of fun and growth for camp age youngsters.
Our family's camping tradition is now continued with Adam and Ann and Bobby and Barbara Boyd each taking over responsibilities as Directors. With our third generation now enjoying their camper years and counselor years we would invite your family to join ours by sharing a summer of fun and growth with us high up in the mountains of North Carolina.
Adam and Ann, Merri-Mac Directors
Like Spencer and Dot, Adam also met his wife, Ann, while on summer staff at Merri-Mac. After graduating from Wofford College, and later earning a M.Div. from Reformed Theological Seminary Adam returned to camp where he served for ten years as the Timberlake Director. In the fall of 2001 Adam began directing Merri-Mac also. Ann holds a B.A. from Converse College and shares Adam's role as Camp Director. Their two boys are Timberlake campers, and their daughter, Mary Page, is a counselor at Merri-Mac. Together they are committed to sharing summers of fun and growth with camp age children.
Ally Gudeman
Ally Gudeman joined our camp family summer of 2015 and serves as one of two assistant directors. She is originally from Ventura California where she lived her whole life until moving to Iowa for her undergraduate degree. She completed her Bachelors of Arts in Religion at Northwestern College in Orange City Iowa. Throughout her time in Iowa, Ally participated in collegiate track and field, lived abroad in the Middle East, and worked on staff with Younglife camping. Ally and her husband Brett were married in 2015 and moved to Black Mountain to begin jobs with Merri-Mac and Timberlake immediately after. Ally has loved learning the traditions, songs, and overall grandeur of camp here at Merri-Mac and Timberlake and is looking forward to the summers to come.
Dave Johnson
Dave joined us as a photographer during the summer of 2015 and moved into a position as assistant director the following fall. Dave has master's degrees from Duke University and Iowa State University and has a rich background of experience leading student ministries for churches as well as outdoor recreation programs for colleges and universities. Dave grew up in Minnesota and recently comes to us from Colorado. He loves working for camp, knowing it is a place where campers and staff will have some of the most formative, fun and meaningful experiences of their lives.
Bobby and Barbara
Like all of the Boyd sons, Bobby grew up in the camping business, probably being able to rig a camp tarp before he could turn the knob on a television set. Bobby, who went to West Georgia College, oversees the maintenance department for both camps and travels to camp promotional visits during the winter. His wife, Barbara, is a graduate of Mars Hill College.
Dan and Annie Singletary, Timberlake Directors
Camp Timberlake is fortunate to have such wonderful folks as Dan and Annie Singletary – they're a barrel of fun and the campers love them too!
Dan Singletary joined our staff in the summer of 2000. It was at that time that he fell in love with both the camp and his now wife, Annie. Dan grew up in Jackson, Mississippi and is a graduate of Ole Miss. He is an avid fly-fisherman, kayaker, and outdoorsman who loves the mountains of western North Carolina! Annie has been a part of camp since she was 7 years old as a camper, CIT, counselor, CIT director, Riding Director, and Assistant Program Director. In the off-season Annie works as a professional potter and mother of their two boys, Will and Jack.
Each of us is blessed to be a part of the Merri-Mac family. It is a family where history is important.

Whats the best time of the day to start solid?
Comments (6)
I have heard mornings from some, that way, if they react, you won't be up all night dealing with it. I haven't started solids yet personally so, maybe someone else will have more information for you about it.
Agreed with pp. I tried oatmeal cereal for thickening a few weeks ago and it was a good thing I did it in the morning. ds was miserable, screaming, etc. By the time night came, it was out of his system.
I always do it in the morning.Not so much to avoid reflux (that's a plus, of course) but to have the whole day for monitoring the reaction.If I don't see anything unusal and it's a vegetable or meat, the next day or the 3rd day I move it to lunch.
not sure how only your LO is, but please don't feel pressured to start solids before 6 month.
After one of his morning bottles... usually about 9/10-ish. I always start on the weekends so that I am the one home to notice anything.
Smitten with Gabriela Grace since 3/17/09, & Aleksandar George since 5/5/12

Stephanie was raised in Santa Monica, California, Aka: Dogtown. After traveling the world in her 20's she settled down in Maui for a year then moved to Hood River Oregon, the windsurfing capital of the world! At the age of 23 Steph opened and ran a very popular restaurant called Purple Rocks Art Bar and Café for 3 years. She loved recipe developing and the overall designing of the restaurant and menu. She had fun teaching herself to cook and bake through research, trial and error. Operating the restaurant was the hardest thing she has ever done. It was all consuming! She had 23 employees at one point. However, it was an incredible learning experience. At the time the town was only busy enough in the summers so she ended up selling it.
Steph then started her jewelry line named Venezian, which she sold to 23 stores in Portland, Seattle, Idaho and California. At the same time she designed 3 top selling hats for Da Kine snowboarding accessories. Steph had been into a natural skin care for some time and decided to start her own line and developed all her own recipes. It was named "Flower of Flowers" after the Ylang Ylang flower. She took on a partner and they sold to local health food stores and they also hosted skin care parties for 2 years. Her partner moved to Maui and Steph decided to let it go and kept on with Venezian jewelry line. Shortly after, she was hired on at Flerchinger's Vineyards (now known as Cathedral Ridge) and worked there for 4 years serving customers in the tasting room. Steph learned all about the wine industry from the different varietals, bottling and labeling, the climates the grapes grow in, the crush methods, filtering and fermentation process and so much more!
Angela was born and raised in Hood River Oregon in the beautiful Columbia Gorge, a small town 60 miles east of Portland, Oregon. She is a happy mother of twin boys. Growing up she had many influences in alternative healing. Ang's parents were both very creative so she grew up creating, designing and dreaming of a career and lifestyle where she could utilize her natural creative talents. Ang started taking an interest in cooking at the age of 14. Her Arabic uncle who lived with her family for about a year, had a big influence on her and taught her some incredible Middle Eastern recipes.
Ang started working for a local Hood River swim and activewear company named Kerrits. She learned to design swimwear including custom pieces for customers and they distributed to Nordstrom and other smaller boutiques. Later, she decided to partner up with her mother, aunt and cousin to create an art co-op called Interior Fusion. They sold art of their own as well as local artists artwork. During this time she was also working alongside a women who ran an interior design and retail paint and window coverings business. There she gained a lot of experience in the world of interior design, color, and faux finishing. Ang was married at the time to a very talented musician, who also taught guitar and singing lessons. She helped him with all of his band's P.R., bookings, band identity and tour arrangements. This is about the time where Steph and Ang met!
One day, Steph decided to take singing lessons from a friend who taught her by using the guitar instead of a piano. She had asked him if he knew of any female guitar players who might be interested in starting an all girl band and he introduced her to his wife Angela. They hit it off instantly and then started a band called Scarlet Luxury. They had a lot of fun, became great friends and creatively inspired each other from that point on.
After looking for more outlets Ang and Steph put their creative forces together and started a faux finishing company. They worked so well together, they would dream up all sorts of ideas while working together. They both had a love for fashion, drawing, designing and conceptualizing all their ideas in their spare time; they decided to start an accessories line called EvaRuna. They developed a unique product and learned the in's & out's of the fashion industry, working with a long time friend of Steph's who has been in the fashion industry for 20 years (started Bronze Age,Von Dutch Clothing & Stronghold Denim). They learned it all from writing a business plan, arranging photoshoots, creating line sheets, to samples and marketing. After the recession was in full motion the two decided to move on… Ang moved to Portland, Oregon and Steph moved back to Venice, California. They have remained great friends and continue to inspire each other. Four years later, Stephanie who resides in Northern California and Angela in Phoenix Arizona, thought it would be cool to bring all their interests together to create a food and cocktail blog. Hence the name CaliZona.

Alessandro Acquisti and Ralph Gross of Carnegie Mellon University, found that information about an individual's place and date of birth could be used to predict his or her social security number (SSN).
Writing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences they said, "Using only publicly available information, we observed a correlation between individuals' SSNs and their birth data, and found that for younger cohorts the correlation allows statistical inference of private SSNs."
The inferences are made possible by the public availability of the Social Security Administration's Death Master File (DMF) and the widespread availability of personal information from multiple sources, such as data brokers or profiles on social networking sites, they said.
"Our results highlight the unexpected privacy consequences of the complex interactions among multiple data sources in modern information economies and quantify privacy risks associated with information revelation in public forums," they said.
The authors said that SSNs had become authenticators of many different types of transaction in much the same way that an identity number does, and as such they have become sought after by identity thieves.
"We showed that it is possible to predict, entirely from public data, narrow ranges of values wherein individual SSNs are likely to fall. Unless mitigating strategies are implemented, the predictability of SSNs exposes people to risks of identify theft on mass scales," they said.
Using their method, they identified the first five digits for 44% of DMF records of deceased individuals born in the US between 1989 and 2003 in a first attempt, and the complete SSN in fewer than 1,000 attempts for 8.5% of those records. This made an SSN the equivalent of a three-digit financial PIN, they said.
"Such findings highlight the hidden privacy costs of widespread information dissemination and the complex interactions among multiple data sources in modern information economies. This underscores the role of public records as breeder documents of more sensitive data," they said.

In February 2011, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) updated the Pregnancy section of drug labels for all medications included in the antipsychotic class of drugs. The new labels contain information about the risk of abnormal muscle movements and withdrawal symptoms in newborns whose mothers took the antipsychotic medications during the third trimester of pregnancy.
Antipsychotic Side Effects
According to the FDA, symptoms of the abnormal muscle movements (extrapyramidal signs or EPS) and symptoms of withdrawal in newborns can include agitation, abnormal muscle tone, tremors, sleepiness, difficulty breathing and difficulty feeding. Although the symptoms may subside in some newborns without treatment, other newborns may be required to stay in the hospital.
In making its announcement, the FDA cited information from the Adverse Event Reporting System (AERS), which identified 69 cases of EPS or withdrawal linked to antipsychotic medications. Because blood samples were not taken, the FDA could not determine if the newborns' side effects were caused by antipsychotic drug toxicity or withdrawal from antipsychotic medications. Symptoms appeared anywhere from birth to one month after birth.
Antipsychotic Drug Side Effects
In May 2011, Health Canada issued a warning about the risk of withdrawal symptoms and abnormal muscle movements in newborns who were exposed to antipsychotic drugs during the third trimester. The Canadian health authority said manufacturers of the antipsychotic medications were being told to update their safety labels. Among the potential issues Health Canada identified were agitation, abnormal muscle tone, tremors, sleepiness, difficulty breathing and difficulty feeding. Depending on the severity of the side effects, some infants may require medical attention.
Other side effects of antipsychotic medications include drowsiness, dizziness, blurred vision, rapid heartbeat and skin rashes.
Antipsychotic Medication Side Effects
Antipsychotic medications are used to treat the symptoms of psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Some typical antipsychotic medications have been linked to an increased risk of tardive dyskinesia, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Furthermore, some elderly people with dementia may be at a higher risk of death when taking atypical antipsychotic medications.
Antipsychotic Drugs
Among the antipsychotic medications are:
Antipsychotic Medications
- Abilify (aripiprazole)
- Clozaril (clozapine)
- FazaClo ODT (clozapine)
- Fanapt (iloperidone)
