re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 4/23/2008
Wow! all this time i thought i was alone ! I completely agree. I moved here 8 years ago and thought the same thing.. everyone is out to "get theirs" no matter who they have to step on or rip off. I am moving out of this town as soon as I can!I have had the same experience with the harassment of kids and fines for crossing their eyes the wrong way .. absolutely a money making scheme, I would say the same ..anyone thinking about moving here because the real estate is reasonable don't do it.. unless you like hot sticky boring rainy untrustworthy locations
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 9/27/2008
I have lived in Houston most of my life, but have also lived in other areas of Texas and the United States. I find it unfortunate that your experience here has been so negative; every major city has issues with crime and unfriendly people, but compared to other places in the nation I would happily disagree with your position on Houston. We have over 40 museums, including a world-class fine arts museum, a beautiful zoo, competitive education, and countless parks and festivals. As for the weather, we live in the southern half of the United States; it's going to be hot no matter where you live down here, be it Houston, New Orleans, Tampa, or any other city in the south. Furthermore if you've encountered any unfriendliness, perhaps it is your own attitude toward our city and the people here that has in turn brought negativity upon you. We're all Texans, after all, and we maintain the reputation of being friendly, helpful people. Please go out and experience Houston before you pass such harsh judgement on a place so culturally diverse.
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 12/18/2008
I love when people lead off with how educated they are, then proceed to misspell numerous words and construct sentences shabbily.
Even so, I will admit some of these facts are hard to ignore. Houston is hopelessly flat. However, is is not a desert and is green. You also have trees, but not so many you feel claustrophobic (Atlanta comes to mind). The flat topography gives kids a chance to find some nice open fields to get friends together and play ball games. I've seen places where that was hard to find (again, Atlanta).
The heat is true, but you fail to mention the nice winters. My wife left her birthplace of Wisconsin, not too far from Minneapolis, and she won't return there but to visit. We just went there, late fall, and the high was -9 with all kinds of alerts. The wind chill was somewhere around -50 or so. Meanwhile, Houston was close to short sleeve weather.
The city is haphazard and disorganized, giving it a less than stellar appearance from freeways. An "anything goes" zoning from the past has left this mess. However, new subdivisions are changing this and slowly this should right itself.
As for your "hang 'em high" statement, I detect you are saying this in a negative way. Personally, as long as they are correct in their prosecutions, then I am all for hanging the murderers they find. I like Texas justice and see it as a positive. The scams you mention are true, but they haven't exactly been finding it affecting the results of many cases, if any.
To me, your ending rant seems to suggest that you two are two upscale folks who work all the time and let your teens raise themselves. These teens supposedly being ruined and hounded by the evil police are probably yours, getting into trouble while you are out trying to feather your nest. Of course, like so many parents of today, you blame the police rather than your teen and yourselves. Your home was probably burglarized by some of his delinquent friends who know when you are home (rarely) and away. Just a guess. I could be totally wrong, but your attitude seems to suggest a personal run-in with authorities that you deem unfair.
Ultimately, I think Houston is a decent place to live, but needs work. I am willing to roll up my sleeves and work to improve it. How about you? If you wish to move to Houston and wait for government or others to come pamper you, look elsewhere. However, if you wish to blend into society and make incremental changes where you can, then come here. There is plenty of recreational things to do, so you won't be bored unless you stick your head in the sand and don't get involved.
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 3/19/2009
Great post. You're right, this city is going to the dogs. It's great to have the Mayor talk about how we recycle, but how many "residents" actually do recycle. Let's get real about this. What is the percentage of people in this city that actually care about the amount of garbage that is thrown out, deposited, or somehow let loose in parking lots? Is it ok to deposit dirty diapers, used tires, or just trash any where you think is your personal garbage can?
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 8/10/2008
"Overall everyone here is so single minded and focused on making alot of money they are self-centered, untrusting and unfriendly."
I TOTALLY agree!
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 5/30/2008
Absolutely agree. Crime in Houston is now worse than in New York City. It's all about money and greed. Corrupt government and high taxes.
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 10/4/2008
I have to agree with you. This is a lonely place. Many other people talk about stress and mean people. There are many ways to be mean and not caring is one of them. People here ignore things, pretend to be inside a bubble when the world keeps spinning around. I do not see what is so great about this city.
re: Do not raise your children here - 1/9/2008 - 4/6/2009
If you're bored in Houston, it's your own d&^#*% fault.

Best Places to Live - 8/8/2016
I am moving from NC and just wanted to know what the best areas are to live in Houston, TX. I am unfamiliar to the area and needing some advice. [Comment on this Posting]
Might As Well Live In A Rainforest - 6/20/2016
Houston (and all of southeast Texas) is a miserable place to live. The climate is classified as "subtropical", but there seems to be no real difference between tropical and subtropical. Just realize that the weather is nice about 20% of the year. The summers are long, hot, humid, and unbearable. It's pretty bad during the day time, too. A normal year has about 10 months of "summer" and two months of "other". If you're not dodging giant mosquitoes, you'll be dodging floods and hurricanes.
The traffic is out of control, and there is no scenery. If you enjoy looking at tons of ugly ass billboard signs, cows, endless miles of flat land and concrete, this is the place for you!
In all fairness, Houston is a big, modern city with lots of entertainment, restaurants, world class medical facilities, and nice pockets of urban dwellings. The residents come from all classes---homeless to billionaires--and almost all ethnic groups are well represented. Houstonians are tolerant and forgiving, for the most part. You'll find more open-minded people here than in the DFW area, for example. Sure, there's cowboy/redneck types around, but not nearly as many as in Dallas-Ft.Worth. There are a TON of fat, bible-beating, ignorant pot-bellied, narrow-minded rednecks up there! To summarize, Houston weather is awful, but there are things to do. The best places to be in Texas are in the hill country regions. It's still hot in Austin/SA, Kerville, Fredericksburg, and San Angelo...but it sure is pretty in those places. Stay out of Houston, if you can. [Comment on this Posting]

City of Dreams Hidden Under Beach Sand - 11/22/2015
I have lived all over Houston, I drive through the entire greater Houston on some days. I Love that there are virtually all types of people here...All types of food (from Cajun popcorn alligator meat to Turkish Coffee)... ALL types of music, free and paid live performances, all types of clothing shoes, mom and pop business, large companies, etc. There are hundreds of car dealerships. Maybe 100 Walmarts, and more clubs on one street like Westheimer than some entire cities. You have parks like Memorial and Herman for the slower paced "take a long walk" or "break" from the corporate buzz or brick and mortar edifice playgrounds. Ooh yeah, and there's lots of MONEY to be made for anyone with a solid idea and massive drive due to -almost- the population and sprawl alone... We have inside hockey arenas, ice skating, art museums, sky bars, "hole-in-the-walls", gymnastics, football from little league to semi pro leagues, fashion shows, media buying, Audio/Visual production studios galore.... Go Houston!!![Comment on this Posting]

Beware of where you settle in Houston - 11/12/2015
Houston is all about location, location, location! I have lived here for three years and it's not horrible, but it's far from great. Lots of sprawl and weird funky parts of town. More bad then good. It's worth the money and security to be in a great part of town. I live in the Galleria area and it's great. I call it my island of good surrounded by third world funk! If you live in a good area like The Heights or Galleria you have everything you need without having to leave the island. I am in the hospitality field and want to work through the 2017 Super Bowl time period. Then I'm checkin out! I lived in Austin prior to Houston and can't wait to get back to Central Texas.

Honest pros and cons summary from someone who love - 11/8/2015
I have such a love-hate relationship with this city. I am 25 and I grew up here.
I had no intention of moving back to Houston after graduating from college but ... here I am :)
And to my surprise I have honestly fallen in love with it since being back. Below is my honest review. I've listed pros and cons.
Please note before even reading this : I live inside the loop (in the Heights) and have a good deal on rent. This makes a huge difference on my quality of life here. i would NOT want to live outside the loop, and I wouldn't recommend it unless you like suburbs and move to one. But note that if you do decide to move inside the loop, rent will not be very affordable as a general rule.
Reasons why I enjoy living in Houston:
A pro to me living in Houston is that it gives me a good launching pad to travel to other places. Exploring the world is important to me. Everyone knows Houston weather/geography pretty much suck. So when you get out of it for a trip, it is that much more delicious! The cost of living is low for a big city which allows me to save and spend on adventures. We do have 2 international airports here so it's easy to get wherever you are going. Plus, just a few hours from Austin if you do want to enjoy more outdoorsy activities.
I personally love the diversity of Houston. There are so many different kinds of people here and I truly think it is beautiful the way I see people getting along. It turned out that the most of the friends I have made since moving back are either international or first generation Americans. I have learned so much about the world just from living in Houston! And now I have connections to the rest of the world if and WHEN I go visit.
In terms of culture/interests you can really find anything here. There is something for everyone as long as you are willing to seek it out. Things don't generally fall into your lap here because it is sprawling and there are so many people. I know artists, car obsessed people, athletes, yogis, food/wine junkies, etc and they all have found their niche here in Houston. Art scene is really good. Museums are great. Food is awesome.
Yes, it's good. I have found jobs REALLY easily here. And taxes in Texas are low.
You never have to deal with snow, ever.
There are so many different kinds of people here and so many people. You can create the life you want for yourself here. It is a good city for entrepreneurs and people who know what they want. Like I said, you can find a group of people with similar passions/ people that you get along with, no matter who you are.
Random other perks:
+Biggest medical center in the US, really good to be here if you have a rare medical condition
+nationally renowned rap scene
+pretty much never any tourists here to deal with (haha)
Reasons why Houston frustrates me:
right wing evangelicals are pretty vocal and obnoxious here. if you stay inside the loop you are much more likely to avoid them.
It's ugly.
The lack of public transportation for a city this size is extremely disappointing. It is due to the sprawl of course, but nonetheless disappointing.
Slightly impossible to deal with during summer. Even if Houston was more walkable, people wouldn't walk anyway, because it's too hot to tolerate.
As a whole, it's a giant giant giant giant giant sprawl of mostly just ugliness. If you live inside the loop or in a choice suburb (depending on what you want) then you will get to enjoy more of a community feel and it's much better!
Lastly -
People from other places will will constantly insult your city and call it a shit hole to your face. It's just a fact of life. No reason to take it personally ;)
Here is a quick quiz to help you decide if you would like living here:
You have friends/family here (and you like being around them) : add 6 points
You don't own a car : subtract 6 points
You have a job lined up here or an economic situation to put you ahead : add 5 points
You need mountains and/or cold weather to be happy : subtract 5 points
You enjoy being in a city : add 4 points
You need everything that you do (work/home/hobbies/activities) to be in your neighborhood : subtract 4 points
You love shopping : add 3 points
You can't deal with people hating on your city : subtract 3 points
You are Christian: add 2 points
You are trying to lose weight : subtract 2 points
You love food : add 1 point
You get annoyed when you hear other languages: subtract 1 point
Did you come out in the positive? Then consider moving here! if not, probably don't come.
And if you are looking for a place to fulfill or inspire you, Houston won't do that unless you put in the effort as well.
a happy Houstonian

Houston--think twice - 10/10/2015
I've lived here for 28 years. I've seen Houston grow and improve greatly.
At this time I would not move here or live here if you can leave.
Traffic and new construction are a nightmare. Crime is back up, and it's violent crime. Gangs and drugs are big here. Houston is the gateway to
sex traffic and drugs coming from the border. Money is sent through here to Mexico as well. The town is now 60% minority. White flight is evident.
Unless you can afford to live in Memorial area, Galleria, west of town out to Katy, West U you may be in for a huge culture shock. Roads are full of potholes and bad drivers. If you are in the dating age range, be very careful. This is not a good town to find a partner unless you grew up here and know people for a long time. For every plus you get here, you get a minus, so your net gain is zero. The city is facing budget problems and tax hikes eventually. The cost of housing is high even for rents, so that is one more reason to think before coming here.
You won't too many friendly people either. Living here is lots of daily stress and aggravation. I would not recommend this town to anyone.
It's also the city in TX with the highest cancer rate. Visit here before you move here, you may save yourself lots of grief. I can't leave until I get my doctor's approval. I've had colon cancer for 2.5 yrs. and next Aug. 2016 is my exit day. I'll be so thankful to escape with my life.[Comment on this Posting]
Too Huge of a City! - 9/18/2015
I moved to Houston from a small town when I was 7 years old and now I'm feeling like it's time for change. I need a city that is not as huge as this city. Really ready for change to improve my quality of life. [Comment on this Posting]
not what i expected - 8/30/2015
I was transferred to Houston for work from Philly and I was told by co-workers that Houston was a progressive, cosmopolitan city with a lot of bright people. While most of the people I worked with were bright and open minded, my experience with typical Houstonians was that they were kind of ignorant country-bumpkins and bible thumpers. The city reminded me of one large trailer park with strip malls. Trashy people - all with either pick up trucks or souped up sports cars. A lot of road rage incidents, people drive horribly. No sense of civility.
Pros -
somewhat lower cost of living (although you get what you pay for!)
Diverse population
MAJOR crime problem! Very unsafe compared to most cities of same size.
Horrible weather in the summer
Country bumpkin/redneck population
Ultra conservative/religious nutcases who try to shove religion down your throat. (Fortunately, we don't have any of that aggressive promotion of religion up north)

Houston - 8/30/2015
I moved to Houston, Tx from the east coast. I have lived in Houston on and off for many years. Houston has it's share of problems. It has poor infrastructure, dirty air, horrific traffic, and it's not pretty. The weather is stifling from July to September. On the positive side, Houston is a hard working city with friendly people. The cost of living is reasonable and you get a lot of house for your money, although property taxes are high. It has a sense of community and it's very charitable. Houston has fantastic restaurants and a Whole Foods Market in every neighborhood. The food choices are without limit. We have a thriving arts district and a phenomenal medical center. We have several parks although outdoor activity is limited compared to other cities It's not a city for fun, it's a city to work. Being an outdoor person, I prefer to live in a cold climate with mountains. I have read many unfair hateful comments about Houston on this website and felt the need to reply to some of those comments. [Comment on this Posting]
One of the worst cities to live in - 5/2/2015
Houston may have been a great place during the oil boom of the eighties, but we lived there for six years and it totally stunk. I never met so many backward pushy a*holes in my life. The city has no culture, poor infrastructure, unless you count medical. With the dirty air, and all the deep fried this and that, people in the medical field have job security. Most everyone has entitlement issues, lots of blank faced idiots riding around in pick-up trucks, girls start having kids in high school. Obviously, all those holier than thou baptists didn't have much influence on them. I liked the immigrants much better than the arrogant local yah hoos, and there was some good ethnic food to be found. Having lived in LA before, the culture shock was almost overwhelming. I didn't get anything about that awful place. Texas is like a giant white trash trailer park. Even people with money lacked class. It's more like the worst parts of the south with none of the good qualities. Humidity was horrible, bugs and mosquitos were everywhere. I did meet friends who had come from more advanced areas, and we banded together out of necessity. What a place..

Wesley Academy Review - 4/29/2015
We have been proud Wesley Academy parents for the past 7 years. This school is a fantastic, hidden gem in Houston! As a former teacher, I had high expectations in choosing a school for our children. Wesley has small classes, individualized instruction from caring teachers and a strong family-school connection. We feel like Wesley is an extension of our own family. Wesley does a beautiful job of weaving the Christian Faith into all aspects of our children's day. We love Wesley!![Comment on this Posting]

"Considering moving to Houston, Austin, or San Ant - 3/31/2015
I'm considering moving to Texas next year spring 2016. I live in Michigan and I hate it! The jobs are far and few in between, housing is cheap but the winters are brutal! I've lived in California, North Carolina, Illinois, and Virginia. I love living in the South. I'm a licensed cosmetologist and I'd more than likely be looking to work in a salon or a spa. I'm not married and have no children. I'm an outdoors kind of gal and I want to live in a safe and diverse area. I hear traffic is crazy!

in response to john about his Houston review - 3/1/2015
In response to john: I agree totally. As a member of the "tell lies about Houston to keep anymore liberals from wanting to relocate to Houston" club or TLAHTKALFWTRTH This city sucks. :)
The racist john thinks there are to many people of color - to much diversity. He is one of those northern whites 'who has education' and who feels guilty with other people's money - and hopefully now he is back in an area of the country where he is free to practice socialism.
Of course we have lots of uneducated people here. He and his ilk have been forcefully opening up our borders for the illegals and all the diseases they bring so they can win elections in perpetuity. He helps bring the illegals in and then complains about them. Isn't that just like a white liberal - whip the slave and complain they make too much noise when groaning? Texas and Arizona are the first stops in the illegals transit across America but it's not the final destination for many of them. Your cities, towns, jobs, and hospitals will be next.
Our freeways are busy with traffic and we don't spend a lot of time looking at our speedometers. Speed signs might say "60" but those in the left lanes are going 75-80 and those in the right lanes are going 65-70. The ones causing the wrecks seem to be the ones that are going 55, those talking on their cell phones, those texting while driving, or those driving while tired, drunk, or high - in other words - the Mr. or Ms. Anyone.[Comment on this Posting]
Houston or Chicago??? - 11/30/2014
Hi Everyone,
I know there are plenty of threads out there about which city is better. I don't think any city is better over another. It's a matter of perspective and personal taste. I'm thinking about moving from Chicago to Houston but there are some topics I'd like to discuss with people living in Houston and specially from people who have lived in Chicago and moved to Houston. Below is a list of things that matter to me and perhaps you can guide me to make the correct decision. Here is the list.
1. Salary/cost of living: I know Houston is more affordable than Chicago. But how do salaries compare?
2. Weather: One of the main reasons I want to run away from Chicago, it's way too cold for me. I grew up in Laredo, TX which is WAY too hot. People also complain about Houston because is way too humid.
3. Nightlife/outdoors activities: Although I'm not a party animal, I like to go out and meet people. I also enjoy activities like running, playing soccer, rock climbing etc.
4. Culture: This is one good reason I love Chicago. People are very open, friendly, and kind. I can easily have a conversation with a cab driver, neighbor, co-worker etc.
5. Transporation/commuting time: Chicago has extremely convenient methods of transportation. I take a bus which takes me to work in less than 25 minutes. I know most people drive in Houston. What's the average commute time from work to home? I understand this varies but I would hate to drive an hour to get to work.
6. Crime: I live in one of the safest neighborhoods in Chicago. I'm assuming it varies by neighborhood in Houston. Can you elaborate on your experiences you had in the past regarding crime in the area?
Here are the things I like about Chicago:
Convenient transporation and fast commute to work
Great culture
Great restaurants and outdoor activities
Things I don't like:
Cost of living is a bit expensive compared to Texas
Weather. It's cold 8 months of the year
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated[Comment on this Posting]

Gaffigan's stand-up act well-received by Milwaukee crowd
Jim Gaffigan didn't have the fortune of being born here, but the native Hoosier did the next best thing and married someone who was.
Milwaukee is sort of a second home for the New York-based stand-up comic, not simply because of his family connections or because he's played annual year-end shows at the Pabst Theater since 2007. His style of stand-up - clean, soft-spoken, often deadpan, obsessive about food - seems tailor-made for Midwestern sensibilities. »Read Full Article(2)

Intel's Broadwell Will Likely Slip Past Back-to-School Shopping Season
Jason Mick
May 19, 2014 5:22 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
First 14 nm chip will likely not be ready until the holiday shopping season, after defect issues
Before 2013, Intel had seen several years of aggressive updates to the Core i-Series. Each spring would
bring fresh announcements of "ticks"
(die shrinks)
or "tocks"
(architecture refreshes), which would alternate on a yearly basis. By the summer months, these chips would have
found their way into high-end laptop models
I. The Slippage
But eyed more carefully, signs of slippage to Intel's breakneck pace have been showing.
Sandy Bridge
, the second generation of Core i-Series processor
launched in Jan. 2011 (Q1 2011) and began shipping almost immediately.
Ivy Bridge
-- the third generation Core i-Series chips
-- were released a bit later, right at the start of Q2 2012 in April 2012. As the release -- a die shrink to 22 nanometers -- brought the tricky-to-manufacture 3D FinFET technology to the table, most wrote off this slippage as natural.
last year's
, Intel's 22 nm architecture refresh, slid back a few more months to June 2013. Some did notice this time, with rumors mounting that the die shrink to 14 nm --
might be delayed until 2015
. It turned out the reports were somewhat true -- Intel was suffering much higher defect rates than previously expected -- but Intel insisted that
chips would be
delayed only a quarter, to Q1 2014
But Q1 2014 (Jan. to Mar.) came and went and
still was a no-show in terms of shipments to OEMs. In an April 2014 earnings call, CEO Brian Krzanich insisted that the wait was almost over, saying that the chips would ship sometime in H2 2014. Most hoped this might mean Q3 2014, in time for the August-September back to school shopping season.

However, while attending the
Maker Faire
in San Mateo, Calif. this past Saturday Mr. Krzanich
delivered some disappointing news
. His comment hints to investors and customers not to get their hopes up of seeing
product shipping in time for that key sales season.
He stated:
I can guarantee for holiday, and not at the last second of holiday. Back to school - that's a tight one. Back to school you have to really have it on-shelf in July, August. That's going to be tough
If the Nov.-Dec. shipping window (perhaps with a September soft launch at the Intel Developer Forum) proves accurate, Intel will have lost nearly a full year in terms of slippage over the past four launch cycles, starting with
Sandy Bridge
Broadwell should be available in time for the holidays.
This slippage originates from the high defect rates that every chip fab company encounters when moving to smaller nodes. Intel typically tapes out test runs of chips and then must make the difficult decision of what will cost more -- the chips scrapped due to defects for the present process, or the cost of waiting and pushing back the refresh. No matter what Intel chooses a fair amount of chips will be lost to design flaws, the trick is minimizing that number.
II. The Danger
Intel is
pocketing around $2.5B USD in profit per quarter
, so it's not exactly hurting for cash. Still, having narrowly
missed on its last two outlooks and struggling to gain ground in the mobile space
, there's fear that the world's largest PC chipmaker may see its PC and server market share gobbled up by fresher competitors.
One of Intel's most dangerous rivals
is the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Comp.
, Ltd. (
) (TSMC). TSMC is expecting to tape out 16 nm FinFET transistor-based chips late this year, possibly in Q4 2014. If all goes well, this 16 nm product could launch as early as the 2015 back-to-school shopping season. If it can pull that off, it may have closed the gap with Intel to about a year, versus
the gap of over two years process-wise that existed back in 2011

Another key rival is Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
) (
). Having taped out 14 nm transistors in Dec. 2012 in a test run, Samsung has been
working to mature the technology at its fabs
. Samsung has teamed up with former Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (AMD) spinoff, Global Foundries to push the technology into production. According to
a report
The EE Times
, production is expected to begin in late H2 2014, and product may be available late in the holiday season.
Samsung and GlobalFoundries hope to ship 14 nm FinFET product by the end of 2014, as well.
That same article, though, added a grain of salt courtesy of market analysis firm International Business Strategies Inc. (IBS). Handel Jones, the firm's chief, told the publication:
IBS is expecting foundry-fabless companies also will experience delays on FinFETs similar to Intel. Also, Intel has experience of FinFETs at 22 nm, and foundry-fabless companies do not have same expertise.
So don't be surprised if third-party fabs aren't quite caught up yet with Intel when 2015 rolls around.

* Aussie steadies as investors await inflation data on Wednesday * Dollar briefly drops to one-week low vs. yen, pares losses * Drop in Portuguese yields helps bolster euro By Lisa Twaronite TOKYO, July 23 The dollar edged lower in Asia on Tuesday as the slide in U.S. Treasury yields over the past two weeks gave investors less incentive to buy the greenback, while the Australian dollar pared gains ahead of domestic inflation data. A low inflation reading on Wednesday would give fodder to those expecting the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) to cut rates next month, which would weigh on the currency. Sue Trinh, senior currency strategist at RBC Capital Markets in Hong Kong, said ihat if inflation is near the lower end of the central bank's target range, "it shouldn't really be an obstacle to further rate cuts by the RBA if they're so inclined." Swap markets see a two-in-three chance of an interest rate cut next month, while interbank futures have a 25-basis-point easing to a record low of 2.5 percent fully priced in by October. Also on Wednesday, HSBC will release its flash PMI for China. The Australian dollar was steady against its U.S. counterpart at $0.9253, after earlier rising to a one-week high of $0.9284. It faces stiff resistance in the $0.9292 to $0.9306 area, but remains well above a three-year low of $0.8998 set on July 12. Against the yen, the U.S. dollar dipped to a one-week low of 99.13 yen in early trading but then quickly pared losses to buy 99.51 yen, down about 0.1 percent from late U.S. trade. The recent fall in U.S. yields came after top Federal Reserve officials, including Chairman Ben Bernanke, stressed that the timing of any reduction to the central bank's $85 billion in monthly purchases would depend on economic data. Soft U.S. housing data on Tuesday led to dollar selling and added to the perception that the Fed has no reason to rush to trim its stimulus programme. "There are fewer fears of an imminent Fed tapering, and yields on U.S. Treasuries are off their recent highs," said Masashi Murata, senior currency strategist at Brown Brothers Harriman in Tokyo. "With the Japanese election out of the way, resulting in a confirmed victory for Prime Minister Abe, there is no particular reason to sell yen right now. So we'll be looking at U.S. data for near-term directional signals," he added. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's bloc won a widely expected victory in elections for the parliament's upper house on Sunday. While the Fed is eventually expected to taper its stimulus, the Bank of Japan is committed to keeping its ultra-easy monetary stance as it aims for consumer inflation of 2 percent within two years, even against a backdrop of an improving domestic economy. On Tuesday, the Japanese government raised its view on the economy for a third straight month and said deflation was abating as a result of the nation's expansionary policy mix of monetary easing and generous spending. The assessment is in line with the BOJ's view that the world's third-largest economy is finally recovering, boosted by the effects of a weakening yen and its massive monetary stimulus. Separately, an annual government economic report said on Tuesday Japan's economy is showing some signs of bouncing back from prolonged deflation as a result of Abe's monetary easing and budget spending to revive the economy. The euro was up about 0.1 percent at $1.3191, after touching a one-month high of $1.3218 in the previous session. The dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of major rivals, fell slightly to 82.190, holding above a one-month low of 82.047 hit overnight. The euro won some respite from political worries after Portuguese President Anibal Cavaco Silva said the current government will stay in office to keep an international bailout on track. That led the spread of Portuguese bonds over German bunds to narrow.

The Effect of Temperature and Ration Size on the Growth, Body Composition, and Energy
By Thomas A. Edsall, Anthony M. Frank, Donald V. Rottiers, Jean V. Adams
Journal of Great Lakes Research, Volume 25, Issue 2, 1999, Pages 355-362, ISSN 0380-1330, DOI: 10.1016/S0380-1330(99)70744-6.
Juvenile (post-smolt) coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kitsuch) were held in fresh water in the laboratory at 5, 10, 15, and 18[degree sign]C for 8 weeks and fed freshly thawed, juvenile alewives (Alosa pseudoharengus) at rates equal to 1 and 2 % of their wet body weight/day, and also at the ad libitum or unrestricted ration rate. Most rapid growth in weight (1.2% wet body weight/day) occurred among fish fed the ad libitum ration at 15[degree sign]C; growth was most rapid at about 10[degree sign]C for fish fed the 2% ration (0.7% /day), and the 1% ration (0.1% /day). Gross conversion efficiency was highest at 10[degree sign]C for all three ration levels. Gross body constituents and energy content of the test fish changed with temperature and ration during the study. Growth rate was positively related to lipid, energy content, and ration; lipid and energy content were positively related to water temperature; lipid, energy content, growth rate, ration, and water temperature were negatively related to water content; and protein was not related to any of the test variables. At the end of the study, water (68.7 to 76.4%) and lipid (3.5 to 10.4%) content were more variable than ash (1.8 to 3.1%), carbohydrate (0.1 to 1.9%), and protein (16.9 to 19.4%) content. Energy content of the fish increased with ration and was highest for each ration level at 15[degree sign]C.

The clip Undercover people from The Departed (2006) with Matt Damon, Alec Baldwin Staff Sergeant Dignam is our liaison to the undercover section. His undercover work is extensive. He's here to give us his report. Sergeant Dignam. Okay, my people are out there. They're like fucking Indians. You're not gonna see them. You'll hear about them through me or Captain Queenan. You will not ever know the identity of undercover people. Unfortunately, this shithole has more leaks than the Iraqi navy. Fuck yourself. I'm tired from fucking your wife. How's your mother? Tired from fucking my father. Good. Today, girls... ...what I have is microprocessors. Somebody, as you may already know, stole 20 microprocessors... ...from the Mass Processor Company out on Route 128. These are the kind they put into computers... ...that could put a cruise missile up the ass of a camel... ...from a couple hundred miles away. These pieces of plastic are worth about 100 grand apiece. We got a guy working for the company two months... ...walks out the door with a box of processors on Tuesday... ...has a ticket for Florida on Wednesday... ...but on Thursday, he gets found in a Dumpster. You know where that dirtball started his life? Southie projects. What was his name, the departed? Myles Kennefick. Got the job with a forged UMass transcript. UMass, Boston... ... which happens to... South Boston? Oh, you're a fucking genius. Who forged your transcript, dickhead? His old man runs the Hibernian Liquor Mart. Kennefick's. We're not here to solve the case of the missing scumbag. We're here to nail Costello. All right, look. We got a guy... ...says Costello's moving the processors to China. He set up the whole fucking job and popped Kennefick. You do not want to miss it if Costello takes a dump. We'd miss less if you made your informants available to us and the Bureau. Without asking for too many details, do you have anyone in with Costello now? Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe fuck yourself. My theory on Feds is they're like mushrooms. Feed them shit and keep them in the dark. You girls have a good day. Normally he's a very nice guy. Don't judge him from this meeting alone.

Liberal Opinion Week
In an election season about "voter anger," one important thing is underappreciated: voter optimism. And in particular, optimism about the economy.
"Wait, what?" you may be thinking. Isn't the election defined by the country's "economic blues"? Isn't the election being shaped by "anger over a 'failed economy'"?
This is not the full story. Or even a very correct story.
Yes, it is true that the economic recovery since the Great Recession has proceeded in fits and starts. And, yes, current economic indicators are somewhat mixed. But voters feel favorable about the economy nevertheless. Here's some evidence.

Top Republicans appear increasingly resigned to Donald Trump as their nominee, and a number of them are morbidly wondering just how extensive a down-ballot disaster his candidacy will unleash for the party, in a pondering-the-iceberg-from-the-decks-of-the-Titanic kind of way.
Here's something that might not inspire any additional confidence: The New York Times reports Friday that the Trump campaign is "likely" to employ a strategy against Hillary Clinton that includes hammering her over her husband's "sexual indiscretions," as a way to rebut Clinton's accusation that Trump is sexist:
"In January, after Mrs. Clinton accused him of being sexist, he warned that Bill Clinton's sexual indiscretions would be fair game, accused Mrs. Clinton of impugning the reputations of women who accused her husband of sexual indiscretions, then boasted that Mrs. Clinton had been intimidated into dropping the subject.
It is simply astonishing how destructive Ohio Gov. John Kasich's campaign has been to the Republican Party.
Right now, the evidence is on full view in Indiana. As part of a deal with Texas Sen. Ted Cruz's campaign, Kasich isn't campaigning in the Hoosier State, which votes on Tuesday. But he and his supporters are still telling people to vote for him -- even though a vote for the Ohio governor is basically a vote for Donald Trump. If Kasich's supporters in Indiana want him to have any chance at the nomination, they will vote for Cruz.
Here's why.
Trump has a slim lead in current polling averages in Indiana. He's at 37 percent, with Cruz close behind at 35 percent. Kasich is far behind with 16 percent. If Kasich's voters switch to Cruz (and all else remains equal), then Cruz will win big. If they stay put, Trump might narrowly prevail. Indiana has 57 delegates: 30 will go to the statewide winner; of the remaining 27, 3 each will go to whomever wins in the state's nine congressional districts.
Desperation, thy name is Ted Cruz.
The Texas senator spent this week doing anything and everything he could think of to blunt the momentum Donald Trump has built with sweeping wins in six primaries over the past two weeks.
First was the alliance - announced Sunday night - between Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich. Under the agreement, Kasich would stand down in Indiana's May 3 primary and Cruz would do the same in Oregon (May 17) and New Mexico (June 7). The goal was clear: Unite the anti-Trump vote in hopes of keeping the real estate mogul from the 1,237 delegates he needs to be the party's nominee.
Within hours of the alliance's debut, it was already on shaky ground, with Kasich telling his supporters in Indiana on Monday morning to still vote for him and insisting he wasn't trying to do anything to stop Trump. By Thursday, Cruz was insisting there was no "alliance" and Kasich's chief strategist, soon after, was sending not-so-cryptic tweets about not being able to stand "liars."
The 1980s have been making a comeback -- and the nostalgia goes far beyond shoulder pads or neon heels and big hair. In the U.S., it seems to be about a search for lost identity -- and emotions that are familiar to me as someone who lived through that decade in Moscow.
On the conservative site Townhall, Nick Adams recently argued that Donald Trump's success in the presidential race has a distinctly '80s flavor:
"Trump is in many ways the 1980's retro-renaissance man who has come back to save America and restore it to its greatness, by killing political correctness and resurrecting 1980s sentiments and values. Might is right, and America is always right. And he's bringing out all of the 1980's hotshots out of hibernation to Make America Great Again with their last breath. Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis, Kirstie Alley, Jean Claude Van Damme, Gary Busey, and countless others. It seems they are all coming out of their collective hibernation to support the man who can make America what it once was: great again, just like it was in the 80s."
The 2016 Republican presidential campaign began last year with Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Bobby Jindal and Rick Santorum -- among others -- flashing Bible passages and competing for support from social conservatives in Iowa. It will end in July with the all but certain nomination of Donald Trump.
The rout of social conservatives in this campaign is absolute. Their future looks grim.
The problem isn't that Trump has a disco ball where his moral compass should be. It's that he isn't particularly interested in the social conservative agenda -- or even in pretending that he is.
Aside from a few comic forays into biblical scholarship early in his campaign, and later comments about abortion that were so off message that they merely confirmed his lack of interest in the topic, Trump is running free and clear of the entire movement. He's leaving social conservatives in the dust.
The following is an adaptation of an address to the University of Michigan's class of 2016.
The most useful knowledge that you leave here with today has nothing to do with your major. It's about how to study, cooperate, listen carefully, think critically and resolve conflicts through reason. Those are the most important skills in the working world, and it's why colleges have always exposed students to challenging and uncomfortable ideas.
The fact that some university boards and administrations now bow to pressure and shield students from these ideas through "safe spaces," "code words" and "trigger warnings" is, in my view, a terrible mistake.
The whole purpose of college is to learn how to deal with difficult situations -- not run away from them. A microaggression is exactly that: micro. And one of the most dangerous places on a college campus is a safe space, because it creates the false impression that we can insulate ourselves from those who hold different views.
A Donald Trump presidency wouldn't be the blow to U.S. business that some fear, according to Warren Buffett, chairman and chief executive officer of Berkshire Hathaway.
"If either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton becomes president, and one of them is very likely to be, I think Berkshire will continue to do fine," Buffett, 85, said at the company's annual shareholders meeting Saturday in Omaha, Nebraska.
The outcome of November's presidential election is unlikely to change the fact that the U.S. is a "remarkably attractive place in which to conduct a business," he said. U.S. companies have enjoyed "terrific" returns on equity despite a sustained period of ultra-low interest rates, he added.
Trump and Clinton are their parties' respective front-runners in a campaign that has exposed discontent with Washington insiders, anger over global trade deals, frustration with Wall Street and furor over the growing gap between rich and poor. At the same time, each candidate's unfavorable rating exceeds 50 percent, a historically high figure at this late stage in the primary season.
Americans are being conned into believing that U.S. corporations are hampered by outsize tax rates that undermine their competitiveness. Tax inversions, whereby U.S. multinational companies merge with foreign companies to re-domicile in the partnering company's low-tax home country, are the logical result of oppressive U.S. corporate tax rates. Or so the story goes. Notwithstanding the complexity of international taxation issues, I've been analyzing U.S. corporate income statements for 30 years, and the reality is that taxes have never been lower for large U.S. corporations, while their profit margins have never been better. Yes, our statutory tax rate is high, but U.S. multinationals never pay retail.
Everyone knows that it's illegal for a hotel such as a Marriott or a Hilton to refuse you a room because of your race. But what about someone who temporarily rents out their own apartment on Airbnb? May he refuse to rent to someone of a particular race? If two people want to rent out the same room, may the landlord prefer a person of one race over another? Moreover, what if the preference is subconscious and a landlord doesn't even realize she is discriminating? Although Airbnb currently offers more rooms than most major hotel chains, the answers to these questions are far from clear.
Questions such as these are increasingly important in the "sharing economy" in which businesses connect people offering goods and services with other people who want to pay for them. Some businesses, such as Airbnb and VRBO, allow individuals to rent out rooms in their homes, while others like Lyft and Uber allow people to use their personal cars to transport strangers in their city. In some instances, sharing economy businesses arguably reduce discrimination. For example, some black passengers have noted that Uber is an improvement over the perennial difficulty in hailing a cab.

TMZ Calls Out Miami Beach Police For Bieber Obsession in Weird Moment of Hypocrisy
When it comes to journalism TMZ is a master at getting a juicy scoop and jokers at just about everything else.
Today Miami Beach Police released the first video of Justin Bieber taking a urine test. It's from a weird angle where you can barely make out whats happening. TMZ of course promptly wrote it up, and then in a moment of bizarre dissonance chided MBPD for turning into the Bieber arrest into a reality show.
"This is getting ridiculous ... the Miami Beach PD just released yet another video of Justin Bieber in jail -- this time showing the singer peeing into a cup -- it feels like an episode of 'Big Brother'," writes the website which profits off of sticking cameras in random celebrity's faces and then posting them online in sensational fashion.
"It's like the police are turning Bieber's arrest into a mini reality show -- they claim the singer isn't entitled to privacy in jail ... and they might be right ... but we've never seen anything like this before."
Upcoming Events
"And we've seen plenty of DUI arrests."
Well, uh, TMZ, it's not technically the Miami Beach Police Department claiming that. It was the media claiming that ...sorta, and yes they are right, at least legally. No 'might be' about it. Though, the media did agree with Bieber's attorneys that images of his penis aren't public record. Other video will be released with his naughty bits censored or blurred out.
Florida has notoriously broad public record laws. In this case the jail house footage was turned over to Bieber's defense team, and because of this lawyer's for various media entities argued, correctly, that they are now public record.
TMZ was not represented in the hearing's that determined the videos were indeed public record, but seems to be just as interested in obtaining and displaying the videos as every one else.
While some of the media outlets probably feel like they only demanded the release of the videos out of some sort of high minded ideological freedom of the press fight -- "If they hide Justin Bieber peeing form us what else will they hide?" -- let's be real, they also know dumb celebrity news means big web hits. TMZ is probably the best example of that actually.
So Miami Beach Police really don't have much to do with it. It's the media making a mini reality show out of Bieber's arrest and TMZ is leading the way.

The Friar's Walk Coach Park, located close to Glór Theatre, features 14 spaces, on-site facilities and a drop-off / pick-up bus shelter 100m from the town centre.� The free facility is also equipped with a Water Supply for Coach Washing, Waste Water Disposal Facilities, 24-hour CCTV Monitoring, and a Drivers Lounge in the nearby Temple Gate Hotel with CCTV and free wi-fi internet access.
Speaking at today's official opening event, Mayor of Ennis Cllr. Peter Considine said: "The Council has been conscious of� the longstanding issue of the lack of ample coach parking in Ennis town centre. Up to now, some operators have opted to bypass the town due to the lack of such parking facilities. Coach Tourism remains very important for Ennis businesses and therefore, this development will provide a significant boost to the local business community."
Commenting on the provision of a new Coach Park at Friar's Walk near Glór, Ennis Town Manager Gerard Dollard stated: "Coach Tourism is critically important to the local tourism and hospitality sector. It is estimated that a coach of visitors can spend up to €3,000 on a short day trip of shopping in Ennis' attractive shops, boutiques and restaurants. The Council and its Elected Members along with members of the local business community have worked together therefore, to deliver this project as a way of facilitating coach operators with easier access to the town centre."
Welcoming the creation of the Coach Park at Friars Walk, President of Ennis Chamber Brian O'Neill said: "It is imperative that if we are to promote Ennis as a tourist destination town and a great place stay, shop and enjoy that we have accessible, available and convenient coach parking facilities in the centre of our beautiful town. I would like to congratulate Ennis Town Council on this excellent initiative."
