The problem with having life changing revelations is that life starts throwing you for a loop...testing your faith.
I got up this morning planning on driving to my next stop in Williams, on the Interstate, and south of the Grand Canyon. I write yesterdays entry and then it starts snowing. I figure I'll stick around another day. Then it stops and clears up. Time to pack up and leave. The first town I pass is called Joseph City. I had just written about Joseph and Mary. Coincidence...Right?
The wind is howling from the North West...the direction I'm heading. I'm also driving uphill to an elevation of 2300 metres from the 1500 at the campground. The truck is working very hard, constantly down a couple of gears from normal cruising. The RPMs are a lot higher then I like them to be as the engine and transmission heat up too much. I'm also driving on the Interstate as it's the only route west in this part of Arizona...the old, historical, Route 66. I have about 200 kms to drive to the next campground.
I've decided to make a slight detour off the Interstate in Flagstaff to Barnes and Noble, the bookstore. My sister Elaine posted a comment in my revelation entry and mentioned a book that I might want to read. I had checked online and it said that there should be a copy in Flagstaff. I stop at a rest stop after driving less than an hour because it's extremely tiring driving in this wind. Cars and Trucks are constantly passing me. I go into the trailer. It's rocking like a baby's swinging crib from the wind.
Back on the road and then I turn off at Flagstaff. That was quick. When I left the rest stop the GPS said I had 30 miles to go. I look at it a few minutes later (or so it seemed) and it says I had 15 miles to go. Did I fall asleep? Or did I magically appear 15 miles down the road? The Barnes & Noble is about 1.5 miles off the Interstate. I notice it at a major intersection and turn before it planning on going around the block to find a parking spot for the truck and trailer. I'm not chancing entering their parking lot, it looks quite full. Around the block and no parking anywhere. I go around a different block and still no parking. I decide to park in a Dairy Queen's parking lot next to the book store.
I run into the store and quickly find the Religion section. Can't find the book, "Secret of the Vine", by Bruce Wilkinson. I ask a sales associate. No they don't have it but can order it. That doesn't help me. I did notice a book on Mary Magdalene that stood out from the rest. I didn't buy it. Since I was here I grabbed a Starbuck's coffee...extra espresso to keep me awake.
Back on the Interstate and the GPS says I have 30 miles to the Interstate exit to the campground. I look at it a few minutes later (or so it seemed) and it says I had 15 miles to go. Did I fall asleep? Or did I magically appear 15 miles down the road? This is freaking me out. The GPS is calculating the arrival time according to the posted speed limit, which is 75. I'm lucky if I can reach a maximum of 60 in this wind and uphill elevation change. I'm definitely not averaging 75. My arrival time does seem to be what the GPS indicated as my ETA when I left last night's campground at 11h00 taking into account my stop in Flagstaff and rest stop.
I don't even want to try and figure that one out. There are scientific theories about that being possible and they have done it at a quantum level, or so I've heard. But hey, I'm slightly bigger then quantum matter.
I'm starting to think that this revelation and the associated thoughts that I'm having are hallucinations brought on by the lack of oxygen to my brain at this high elevation. I spent 5 months at sea level and then in the past 2 weeks I've climbed to over 2000 metres. But then, Moses had to climb up to the top of Mount Sinai to receive the Ten Commandments, Muhammad received his first revelation on the mountain of Hira outside Mecca, and Abraham also spoke to God on a mountain top. Maybe we've all hallucinated?
I haven't mentioned this in my blog yet, but my "formal" Journey didn't start on September 20th as indicated in the blog, but actually on June 12th when I climbed to the top of Moose Mountain (elevation 2437 metres). My actual Journey started the day my soul selected my parents.
You figure that once you've been chosen as a Prophet, a Philosopher, a Buddha, a Shaman, a Sage and a Mystic, that everything would fall into place to make your job easier. Somehow I think the opposite occurs. My health will get worse, the Journey will get more difficult, I'll be shunned as a wacko, all to test my faith.
I am curious as to the purpose of my sister's comment. If it's suppose to be part of the discovery then things should have worked out where I would have received the book without any trouble, like my other signs. Maybe I didn't get the book because the time isn't right? Or are my sister's comments suppose to be divergent to "push my limit", so to speak. Someone out there has to be the person who has to test the faith I have in what I am saying. Maybe suggesting a book that isn't part of the "grand plan" fine-tunes my ability to discern signs that I should follow and those that will lead me down the wrong path?
When we were kids she always picked on me because I just took it and didn't fight back. Then one day I fought back and it wasn't fun for her anymore. Is this an extension of her "picking" on me? It's out of love, so it's one of those things that people have to do that benefits the other person in the long run. We'll find out at some point in time. Maybe the book will pop up somewhere down the road if it's meant to be.
The weather was +20 yesterday during my drive. Today it was just above freezing. It's suppose to go down to -10. What a change from the +30 of a week ago. As I finish writing this the temperature here and in Calgary is the same. There's probably the same amount of snow also. I didn't want to see snow this winter. Guess I should have stayed where it was warmer. But then I would have missed out on my signs.
Before I forget, I've figured out what to call God. I believe it was divinely provided to me. He/she, spirit, whatever this mysterious presence is will be called "What? Is!". Why? Because we keep on trying to define something that is un-definable using earthly language and we can never receive an answer to what he/she is. We can never ask "who" he/she is because he/she is not a person. So "God" is "What?" But he is everything that there is, was, and will be, and so "Is!" So "God", "Spirit", "Mysterious presence" will now be known as "What? Is!". The word "God" is being used in so many different ways now that it is time for a new name. Try yelling out Oh! What? Is! when you are in the middle of some extreme pleasure, if you get my drift?
I was hoping to catch up on my entries tonight. The day after the day after is still incomplete. Fatherly duties were required to try and put out a crisis. Even when you are thousands of miles away a father's love is always just a word away.
JUST A WORD AWAY by Chris De Burgh
Plenty of time to turn out the light
I want to keep this feeling inside
For a little more
It must be a Daddy's pride and joy
A little baby boy
Is lying in my arms here tonight
Tears in my eyes when I saw you being born
So much emotion, words cannot form
So I'll let it be
Only to say it's you and me, for eternity
I wish you a wonderful life
And I'm only, I'm only, I'm only
Just a word away
I will be near whenever you call
Pick you up whenever you fall
'Till the day will come
You'll think you're out there
On your own, but you're not alone
Remember that I will be here
And I'm only, I'm only, I'm only
Just a word away
Your sister Rosanna's fast asleep
So it's time for me
To whisper I love you, goodnight
And I'm only, I'm only, I'm only
Just a word away, just a word away...
For Nick!

Moderate American inflation supports Fed's careful interest rate policy
In March, American consumer prices edged up, while underlying inflation decreased, suggesting just tiny urgency for the Fed to increase interest rates in the nearer future.
The inflation backdrop is currently dominating notwithstanding worsening labor market conditions, already underscored by other information on Thursday, disclosing the number of US citizens filing for unemployment virtues.
The Labor department announced that last month its Consumer Price Index acquired 0.1%, because the rebound in gasoline prices was partly compensated by a dip in the cost of food.
Housing costs and medical care also bounced back in March after strong hikes in the previous two months.
In February, the CPI dipped 0.2%. For the twelve months through March, the CPI surged 0.9% after edging up 1% in February.
The so-called core CPI, stripping out food as well as energy costs, soared 0.1% after two upbeat monthly readings. Additionally, March's increase in the core CPI appeared to be the smallest since August and in February it followed a 0.3% surge.

Jewelers should know what they are selling?
I try not to rant too hard on the jewelry trade.. It does feed my family after all.. But I was reading this interesting Time Magazine poll about retail jewelers.. It seems that the number one complaint of 2000 polled consumers is that their jeweler, or jewelry salesperson doesn't always know as much as they could, or should, about the product that they are selling..
Poll shows need of retailer knowledge
Did you notice the publication date on that page?? 1947.. Yup, 60 years ago people were complaining about the lack of knowledge in the retail jewelry trade.. Take a tour around any of the online jewelry forums.. A common complaint that runs through all of them is the overall lack of knowledge and skill of the people behind the counter.. The stories are nearly endless..
So why is this?? Why are we 60 years down the pipe from this first poll being published and still seeing the same complaints?? I have some guesses..
I think that a lot of it has to do with the traditional nature of the industry.. Information was passed from father to son without a lot of outside influence.. This causes bad information to become fact in a very short time.. I don't know about you, but I still have trouble telling my dad he is wrong about something..
But, I think the larger problem is simply one of laziness.. There is so much good information out there, easily found, yet so many people in the trade would rather make up an answer and try to bullshit a customer than admit that they don't know something and ask for help.. A piece of advice for those of you that do this.. our customer probably knows as much, or more, than you do.. And making up an answer on the spot will cost you the sale.. And even worse, that customer will most likely jump online and post their story about the idiot jeweler.. How is that for advertising??
The jewelry trade isn't the only one that has this problem.. But it really isn't that hard to learn the basics quickly, and gain more in depth knowledge with just a little effort on your part.. It's been 60 years.. Get off your ass and learn something..

Parents should start planning for extra child care as the BC Teachers Federation announces rotating strikes will continue through next week.
Every school in the province will be behind picket lines for one day next week-either Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday.
Union President Jim Iker says no substantive progress was made at the bargaining table today.
"We need a commitment from government that their willing to move on key issues of smaller class sizes for our students come September, class composition guarantees, and minimum levels for specialist teachers."
He says the government needs to bring more funding to the table to address issues like class size, composition and staffing levels.
"We also need them to come to the table with a fair and reasonable wage offer. We've just come off two years of legislated zeros, and so far what the've offered is another two years, and that's not acceptable."
Schools across the province will be closed for one day next week-either Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday.
Education Minister Peter Fassbender is not happy the BC Teachers Federation has decided to continue rotating strikes next week.
"I'm profoundly disappointed that while we're still at the table, with all of the talk that's been going on, that children and parents and communities are continuing to be held hostage and put in the middle of this dispute, it's unfortunate."
But Fassbender says the government does not plan to legislate an end to the rotating strikes or to impose a contract.
He adds if the union cancels its strike, the government will lift its lockout of teachers.
Fassbender is again rejecting the idea of a legislated cooling off period or contract.
"And I think we need to break that cycle of dysfunction when it comes to bargaining with the BCTF and the only way to do that is for both of us to be at the table, willing to bargain, as we've done with other public sector unions."
Fassbender insists the government has made significant moves at the bargaining table–the union has not.
Meanwhile the teacher's union and government negotiators will meet at the Labour Relations Board to discuss the government's partial lockout, and a proposed 10-percent cut on teacher's pay.
The BCTF and the government's negotiators are scheduled for a hearing at the Labour Relations Board tomorrow over lockout provisions which includes a proposed pay cut for teachers.
The Ministry of Education confirms the province saves 12-million dollars a week from teachers rotating strikes.
The government also saves around 1.2 million dollars a day from the 10-percent wage reductions on the backs of teachers.
That means the province could save close to 40-million dollars by the end of next week.
80-percent is held centrally, and 20-percent is retained by school districts.
The government says it will decide how to use the funds at a later date.

The Chicago White Sox offense continued to impress in today's 10-8 loss to the Seattle Mariners. Unfortunately, Gavin Floyd could not bring his best stuff and the team eventually ended their nine-game winning streak in extra innings.
The game was a battle from the start. The Mariners managed to homer in each of the first four innings and the Sox continued to answer with runs of their own. Just like yesterday, Gordon Beckham left his mark on this game with a home run and four RBIs. A.J. Pierzynski, Alex Rios, and Dayan Viciedo added with home runs of their own.
Back down to earth Paulie
Not known for his long ball, Ichiro hit two bombs off Floyd. The Mariners managed to knock Floyd out in the fifth inning after scoring five earned runs. Floyd has really been off his game as of late. In his last four games, he has allowed 26 runs total in just 19.2 innings. It can never be certain which side of him will show up when he takes the mound. He has the stuff to be a solid starter, but lacks anything even resembling consistency.
Another reason for today's loss was the lack of contribution from our two heaviest hitters. Adam Dunn and Paul Konerko each went 0-5, leaving five runners on base between them. It is hard to get on Konerko's case, though, since everyone knows he couldn't keep up his ridiculous offensive pace. Today's showing brought his BA closer to earth at .366.
No one should be too disheartened by today's loss. Winning streaks all come to an eventually and luckily, this streak catapulted the Sox into first place. The Cleveland Indians lost their game today as well which means the Sox are still 1 1/2 games up. Even better than all this, however, is the prolonged struggling of the Detroit Tigers. With a win tonight, they will still be five games back. Picked by many to be the hands-down favorite of the American League Central, it is important that the Sox establish a lead early and never look back.
The White Sox will try to take home the series tomorrow with Chris Sale on the mound. Sale is scorching hot right now and is coming off his near record-breaking 15 K game.

Navigation Retrofit Cost
Hi All,
I just bought a new 2014 GC Limited. Coming from the Ford Explorer I am extremely happy. Very solid vehicle with excellent features.
I have the 8.4A/RA3 head unit and was wondering what the cost is to have Navigation installed. Has anyone done it and what did it cost?
Re: Navigation Retrofit Cost
I'll save you using the search function this time, because I'm a nice guy! ;)
It's all there.
Re: Navigation Retrofit Cost
Re: Navigation Retrofit Cost
I think list price is $595. there may be some negotiation room. If you want nav you should have ordered RA4, activating nav on RA3 is more costly than ordering an RA4 and you still don`t get the exact same functionality.
Hi. My dealer will get me the NAV upgrade for $300 because I cried that we do not have uconnect access and apps in Canada. Tip! "Cry" ;-)
Re: Navigation Retrofit Cost
Got the navigation set up from the dealer yesterday. Map is 2012 Q2 / 20121026.
Paid $309 for it. I can also set the map on 3D - don't know why someone posted that the retrofitted couldn't set on 3D. Or do I am missing something?

The Insurance Institute For Highway Safety (IIHS) has released its top safety picks 2011 for vehicle models. More than 70 models are on the list including 15 subcompact and compact models, a new record. The IIHS considers these models the safest 2011 small cars. This award is an important designation as auto manufacturers use it to promote and sell their products. Safety is an important consideration for new car buyers.
The IIHS considers a model's crash worthiness in making the ratings. Cars are tested for their performance in 30-40 mph front and side crashes, a rollover crash, and evaluation of seat/head restraints for protection against neck injuries in rear impacts of 20 mph. To make the 2011 list, a car model had to offer electronic stability control and receive a "Good" rating on all tests.
The IIHS has four different rating grades for vehicle models: good, acceptable, marginal or poor, based upon their performance in the above tests. History demonstrates that models that get "poor" ratings face considerable negative publicity and adverse affects on their sales. Car models are grouped by size and type on the list.
Automakers are quick to respond to the ratings. They want their cars to be on the top safety pick list and will make changes during the model year to address deficiencies. For example, at the beginning of the 2010 model year, only 27 vehicle models qualified for the award, but the number grew to 58 models on the list by the end of the model year as automakers reworked and tested their designs and introduced new models. However, some models have exceptions meaning that only certain trim lines or models with certain features qualified for the top safety pick designation.
There are several reasons for the increase in the number of models on the list in 2011. New federal laws requiring new cars having electronic stability control (ESC) are soon to take effect. Most new car models now offer standard ESC, traction control, ABS brakes, and driver, passenger, and side airbags. Also, automakers have worked to improve the roof structures in their cars.
According to the IIHS, the safest 2011 small care are: Chevrolet Cruze, Honda Civic 4-door models (except SI) with optional ESC, Kia Forte Sedan, Kia Soul, Mazda Mazda3 built after December 2010 (sedan and hatchback), Mini Cooper Countryman, Mitsubishi Lancer sedan (except 4-wheel drive), Nissan Cube, Scion tC, Scion xB, Subaru Impreza (except WRX) sedan and wagon, Toyota Corolla, Volkswagen Golf 4-door models, and Volkswagen GTI 4-door models.
The Ford Fiesta (built after July 2010) sedan and hatchback and Volvo C30 both made the Top Safety Pick list but are classified as being in the "minicars" and "midsize cars" classes, respectively.
Japanese models fared well in small car safety ratings, comprising more than half of the models in the "small cars" category. More car models may be added to the list if they qualify later this model year. To learn more about these safest 2011 small cars and other models, the IIHS has nearly 200 2011 models rated on its website at http://www.iihs.org/ratings/default.aspx.

How to import my .vcf contacts to the phone?
Hello there.
I have some problems, when I did the backup of my N95 via Bluetooth, I got all my contacts in "vCard" format (.vcf), and I'm here to ask if that's any way to have them back to the Omnia HD.
I hope that's a way!
Thanks all
I remember I exported all my contacts in separated *.vcf files from my old phone then I transfered them via BT dongle on my home PC with 'File Transfer' option (I have WIDCOMM BT chipped dongle). They all appeeared as BT messages so I saved them that way... It's one by one process but hey, at least I haven't had to enter them all manually. Besides this way, I couldn't figure another more convenient to transfer them all...
If you had used the search tool in the forum you would know that you can import them to Outlook Express and use PC Studio to sync Outlook Express to i8910. That is also possible in Linux Omnia and Linux
Linux User #57137 - http://counter.li.org/
You must NOT copy every single file and open + save it. Just do the following:
* Copy all your .vcf files on your memorycard / mass storage into the path: \Others\Contacts\
* Open your Phonebook
* Options
* Mark/Unmark -> Mark all
* Options
* Copy business card -> To other memory
The same way you can copy all your phonebook entrys from your phonebook to your mass storage and transfer them to another symbian phone (i prefer this way to backup my phonebook incl. phonebook-pictures etc.)
|The Following User Says Thank You to sockenbuegler For This Useful Post:
Fevves (10-29-2009)
I've transfered my contacts from different phones to the other this way (Nokia 5800 Xpress Music to Samsung i8910HD) and it worked like a charme! Just grab the MicroSD and put it into the HD and transfer the Files back - as easy as it sounds :-)
All you have to do is connect your phone to your computer and open the Samsung Phone browser from My computer.
Open the phone and open the contacts folder.
Then you can just drag all the vcf files to your computer, do whatever to your phone, and drag them back.

Matt Jarsky (a.k.a. Cheapo) introduced me to simplefit. I was doing squats, push-ups and pull-ups for a while but decided to start logging my progress and following the various levels.
Today was my first official SF day. Although I worked out yesterday and probably should have rested, I had the energy to knock one out;
Week 1, March 24, 2010
D1 L4 - 25 rounds
Not sure where I stand with these number, I'll probably know better after a few weeks. Last week I was able to do level 5 day 3, but wanted to start at a lower level and work my way up. Hopefully I'll get time on day 3 of level 4 this week and move up. My goal is level 6 by the end of April.

i am 5'3 113 pounds. Was an a cup before my surgery had little breast tissue to begin with. i am 22 and i recently got saline 285cc under muscle breast implants on feb 16 2012. I want them out as soon as possible. How would this surgery affect my breast after taking the implants out?
How Would Breast Implants Affect my Appearance After Explant? Only Had Them in for a Week
Doctor Answers 2
Removal of Breast Implants Soon After Surgery?
Thank you for the question.
It is very likely that your breasts will remain very similar to their pre-operative status after removal of breast implants.
Generally speaking, I would suggest you wait at least 3 additional months before you make any decisions regarding revisionary surgery. This waiting time will allow you to (potentially) physically and psychologically adapt to the new body image. You may find that you are pleased with results of surgery at that time.
If, after this waiting period, you decide to have the breast implants removed, it is very likely that the breasts will "bounce back" (with consideration to your use and the size of breast implants use).
I hope this helps.
Web reference: http://www.poustiplasticsurgery.com/Procedures/Procedure_breastAugmentation.htm
Implant removal
Removal of implants can be done almost at anytime. If you absolutely do not want them, it is better to remove them sooner than later so that tissues that are stretching out can rebound. Commonly, I think patients should wait 3-4 months because during the initial post-op there is sometimes a little bit of "buyers remorse."

I have this since I was a teenager! Is it the lion's wrinkle? It is quite deep and wide... Which treatment would be the best to get rid of it? Botox or something else? Please, help me.
What Can I Do with This Wrinkle on my Forehead?
Doctor Answers 2
Reducing forehead lines
Botox or disport can be very effective tools of reducing the deepening of the lines in the brown areas. However if you have a deep crease even at rest without frowning, then a dermal fillers such as Restylane may be of benefit. I tend to use a combination of the dermal fillers and the neurotoxins to get the best results.

So that depressing moment...
Why I still bother with League, I have no idea.

Eh, you learn to get over the fact that the vast majority of the human population will, upon given anonymity, be the sickest most depraved creatures ever. Comes with the area.
Play games with friends. It really helps.
I totally agree with Kottsu, but when I solo queue, the last thing I play for is the community. I played three duo queue ranked games today and in all three the champion select was made absolutely terrible by one of the three other teammates. There's always someone who can't communicate, or refuses to.
On the plus side, 5 man premades make LoL the best game in the world.
Thing is five man premades are sooooo hard to do because it requires so many people online at the same time. Or maybe I just don't have enough friends.
My extended family, brothers, and a lot of my cousin's friends play LoL, so that's where I get my premades. I've also been trying to get my school friends to play it, but have only been partially successful. It doesn't help that I told them I thought it was terrible before I got hooked myself.
Have you played any ranked?
A tiny bit, haven't even gotten through the placement matches. Primarily because there's a ton of trolls and the expectations are really high there.
You should play more Minecraft instead of League, that way you can, if on the right server, do extremely amusing things to those who attempt to be the cretinous, foul creatures most of the internet mistakenly refers to as trolls.

This blog is written by Alex Humva, penname of some random teenager named Alex Censored. He writes stories, writes rants, writes screenplays, plays games, makes games, has a terrible work ethic, and is generally sarcastic. He believes in a Judao-Christian god, but most other people who do too give him a glare because of his weird beliefs, possibly because he's somehow bi at the same time. He's an utter equalist who feels that any discrimination amongst humans for things they were born with is wrong. He doesn't care about xenos though, let them all burn.
He's also an aspiring engineer who hopes to get a scholarship at his local big engineering college and one day help humanity. More likely he'll be a pencil pusher in a basement somewhere, but he's a bloody minded optimist.
Because of his peculiar personality and beliefs, he gets into fights often, though they usually end when he wakes up the next morning and doesn't feel motivated anymore.

Where I stayed
Now that it's coming into July, the days are really too hot to achieve anything much and our first attempt at walking around the old town was foiled by an oppresive heat and far too much sun. We sat instead under the trees of the campground and read the siesta time away. Once the sun started to go down we strolled back towards Pont d'Avignon and watched a bloated fluffy white cat float down the river before snapping way too many photos of the sunset and going back to the campground to sleep the night through (although I did dream of someone throwing cats off a cliff).
Up "early" the next morning we missed the first bus to the Pont du Gard and so headed up the main street of Avignon, eating icecreams and baguettes while meandering through the gardens, past the former Papal palace and Notre Dame cathedral
As for how our travels are going overall, we have only two weeks left before it's time to head back to London and look for a job and a place to live. I'll be glad to escape the rising temperatures but am a bit daunted about the pounds we'll have to fork out to secure a flat.
Rating out of 10: 8
In a word: Quaint
Something Interesting: During the 14th century, Avignon was the seat of the Papacy (rather than Rome)

MY tafelspitz is a dish with a lot going on: it's hot, cold, spicy, creamy, crunchy and soft. It is essentially boiled beef, but it becomes something more because of the garnishes served with it. It was Emperor Franz Josef's favorite dish.
In Austria there is actually a cut called tafelspitz, from the end of the sirloin, the rump. Butchers in New York call it beef triangle or tri-tip, and French chefs grill it like a steak. It's a tasty, solid piece of meat with a grain and the right amount of fat.
The beauty of this dish is that you wind up with two courses, ready in advance, with most of the cooking needing no attention.
I start with vegetables and beef bones in a pot of cold water. I char the onions and leave them unpeeled to intensify color. Scum from the bones will form on the surface, so for the first 10 or 15 minutes of boiling I skim constantly. Take your time, and the soup will become nice and clear.Continue reading the main story
Once most of the scum stops rising, I add the meat. Keep it boiling a few minutes to firm up the outside and hold in the juices, skim again, lower the heat and let it cook at a nice simmer. I wait until skimming is done to add seasonings because I don't want to fish them out. I add lovage, which has a celery flavor. I love the taste of celery in my broth.
When the meat is done, your roasting fork should slip in easily and not stick. Take the meat out and cover it loosely. Then strain everything in the pot through a cheesecloth or a linen napkin. Don't press down on it. You want only the free-flowing juices. You can season them some more.
As you reheat the broth, it should only simmer. If you boil it like laundry, it will turn cloudy. The broth is your first course. I peel and cut up some of the vegetables to serve with the soup and with the meat. You shouldn't have to skim off any fat. Besides, the broth needs those little ''eyes'' of fat to give it some body.
Slice the meat, moisten it with broth and serve with sea salt, chives and cold apple-horseradish on top and creamed spinach alongside. Serve crispy potatoes for texture. I won't complain if you want boiled potatoes. But serve rice, and I leave the room.
Time: 4 hours
1 large onion, halved horizontally but not peeled
3 large carrots, scrubbed
1 large parsnip, scrubbed
1 small celery root, scrubbed
2 celery stalks
1 leek, cut in half
1 pound beef bones
2 pieces beef triangle, each about 1 1/2 pounds
Sea salt
15 black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
4 cloves garlic, peeled
8 branches flat-leaf parsley
4 branches fresh dill
2 sprigs lovage (optional)
1/2 cup freshly grated horseradish
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and grated
Juice of one lemon
1/4 cup minced chives.
1. Char onion on cut side over open flame or by placing cut-side down in cast-iron skillet over high heat. Place in 16-quart stockpot with carrots, parsnip, celery root, celery, leek and beef bones. Add 8 quarts cold water. Bring to boil, and cook 10 minutes, skimming constantly. Add beef, allow to boil 5 minutes and skim.
2. Reduce heat to simmer, and cook, skimming from time to time, 1 hour. Add 1 tablespoon sea salt, peppercorns, bay leaves and garlic. Tie herbs together, and add. Continue simmering 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until meat is very tender.
3. While meat is cooking, mix horseradish and apple with lemon juice, and set aside.
4. Remove meat from pot, and cover with foil. Line large sieve or colander with cheesecloth or linen napkin, and place over very large bowl. Pour in contents of pot. Do not press liquid from vegetables. Transfer strained broth to 6-quart saucepan.
5. Set carrots, parsnip, celery root and celery stalks aside. Discard everything else. Peel and dice carrots, parsnip and celery root. Dice celery stalks. Set aside.
6. Gently reheat broth. Add salt to taste. Serve some of the broth as a first course, with diced celery root, parsnip and celery stalks. Then serve meat. If it needs to be reheated, steam briefly over remaining broth. Slice meat 1/2-inch thick across grain. Place in soup plates, with diced carrots, moisten with hot broth, and top with apple-horseradish, sea salt and chives. Serve.
Yield: 6 servings.Continue reading the main story

Hey! I'm a relatively new knitter, working on my first sweater, a pattern from vogue. I've had no problems with the pattern so far, and am nearing the end, working on the neck shaping for the front.
The pattern says to work across, then pull center 24 stitches onto stitch holder and continue to the end of the row (then do something similar for the next 11 rows, binding off as I go). I don't understand how I can continue around the neck stitches on the other side without screwing up the shape of the neck in a major way.
You probably need to use a second ball of yarn to work the other side of the neck, assuming that this is knit back and forth and not in the round. What pattern is it and if it's in Vogue Knitting, which issue?
It's called the off-the-shoulder pullover, and it's one of their free patterns, so I can't tell what issue it's from.
That makes sense, I'm just confused because it doesn't tell me to do that anywhere, just says "work to the end".
Thank you!
Yes, you need to use a second ball of yarn to work the other side of the shoulder. The pattern wants you to work "...both sides at once." So you work one shoulder to the end of the row, turn and work back to the bound off sts, drop the yarn and pick up the second yarn end and work the other shoulder.Really cute pattern (VK site needs login to see pattern).
Thank you!!! So helpful!
yes, it's a lot of fun. Hopefully it'll turn out!

TripAdvisor Reviews Dong-A Tourist Hotel Busan
Travel Blogs from Busan
Teaching, enjoying the city, and Korean Holiday
... but sometimes I feel like they are pressured into so much information at once. Some days are filled with challenges and some days go smoother than others. I know that I am making a difference in each child's life each and every day. Some mornings I have the privilege of listening to some of the older kids read to me before my kids arrive. I'm amazed at how well these kids read at such a young age, ...
Piano in Korea
... out about the musicstores in Bujeon.
I went there to see if it was really possible. The directions I found were good and when I reached the building, all the musicstores were said to be located in, I was excited.
There were indeed many stores but none of them was specialized in piano's, too bad. But while I was walking around in this maze of stores, I could hear someone playing piano and so I followed the sound and found the Yamaha store.
When the person finished ...
Regional Reverie Looks At A Bridge
... a wide palette of pastel hues, making the place seem more Buenos Aires and less Busan. There are murals, sculptures and art installations everywhere and also many studios and workshops and book caf�s open to the public. I spent a couple of hours wandering through Gamcheon's narrow streets and stairways admiring all the public art, following the guided tour map sold at the village's entrance for ₩2,000. You can reach Gamcheon by catching the Line 1 subway to Toseong ...
Busan Fireworks Festival
... score!) and wandered to The Wolfhound for a fry breakfast. SO good!! Then of course we went back to the beach, because why not get a couple more hours of sand in?
We finally made our way back to Daegu and finished our night at Travelers. The best place in Daegu for a late-night dinner after traveling. Needless to say, by the time I made it back to my apartment, it was a struggle to stay awake in the shower. But I wouldn't have had my weekend any other way.
Do I Smell Something Fishy??
... they were having fun.
After lunch we attended a wine tasting. The wine wasn't that fantastic nor was the company at first. We keep on being seated with the really oldies and sometimes they look at us like we are crew and what are we doing in this situation. That's ok, they warmed up a little at the end.
Off to trivia again, and we couldn't find any friends so we had to use our own brains ...

We've Got You Covered From Head to Toe December 3, 2014 by Kirbie Johnson 325 Shares Chat with us on Facebook Messenger. Learn what's trending across POPSUGAR. Getting married can bring forth a lot of stress. Your Pinterest board is out of control, you don't understand why your maid of honor won't just send back her RSVP, and your fiancé would rather be watching football than picking table toppers. While we can't fix the frenzy that is wedding planning, we can make deciding your makeup look and hairstyle a bit easier. Whether you need an updo idea, want clear skin for your big day, or are considering coloring your hair before you walk down the aisle, we've got you covered. Shop Brands Mario Badescu Image Source: A Romantic Updo For Shoulder-Length Hair Image Source: If your hair is in that awkward in-between stage or you just made the chop or have shoulder-length hair, it can be difficult deciding on what type of updo will work best for a date night or even your wedding. We figured out a gorgeous style that works perfectly for hair that brushes your shoulders. On Kirbie: Finders Keepers dress What to Pack in Your Wedding Day Survival Kit Image Source: Whether you're the bride-to-be or just a helpful bridesmaid, you'll want to know that it's always important to keep a few things packed with you before you stroll your way down the aisle. You should also pack up before your wedding week, so you don't miss some of the more important items — you know, the ones you never thought you'd forget. We've checked off every little necessity you might need (and could potentially forget) for the ultimate wedding beauty survival kit. On Kirbie: Forever 21 dress Try This Hair Removal Method Before Your Big Day Image Source: Corbis Images In the world of hair removal, everyone wants a budget-friendly option that promises to remove hair quickly without traumatizing the body during the procedure. Sugaring seems to be the best alternative when it comes to getting rid of unwanted hair. It costs about the same as waxing, but instead of potentially breaking the hair off at the skin's surface, this mixture of sugar, lemon, and honey removes the hair directly from the follicle, allowing it to grow back softer, less coarse, and thus, less noticeable. So who is it best for? Decide if sugaring is right for you. On Kirbie: Darling dress, Kate Spade earrings Bridal Makeup For Your Big Day, Honeymoon, and Beyond Image Source: Shutterstock On your wedding day, you want to look like the best version of you — not an overdone portrait of someone else. When we met up with Gregory Arlt, director of makeup Artistry at MAC Cosmetics, we knew we were in for a gorgeous and eye-catching bridal makeup look that the bride and bridesmaids would all want to wear. Better yet, this look wears well after the wedding, too. On Kirbie: Laundry by Shelli Segal dress Get Clear, Firm Skin Before You Walk Down the Aisle Image Source: There's a 10-minute treatment sweeping Hollywood — and it gives your favorite celebrities their flawless red carpet glow! We visited premier Los Angeles spa Skin Laundry to learn more about the newest laser and light facial that firms skin, cleans pores, and doesn't require any downtime. On Kirbie: BB Dakota dress Packing 101: Everything You Need For a Summer Wedding Image Source: If you're headed to a wedding this Summer, then maybe you're feeling a little stressed about what to pack. When it comes to your beauty products, what should — or shouldn't — make the cut? We packed out our beauty bag just for you, chock-full of must-have items that any bride, bridesmaid, or wedding guest will want to have on hand. On Kirbie: Bebe top A Different Take on a Bridal Manicure Image Source: Tom Bachik, celebrity nail artist, works with a who's who of Hollywood: Jennifer Lopez, Beyoncé, and of course, Zooey Deschanel. Needless to say, he knows a thing or two about nails. Tom dressed up Zooey's nails for the 2014 Golden Globes and works with the actress frequently to create one-of-a-kind manicures for her photo shoots and red carpet appearances. He told us what it's like getting a celebrity ready for an award show (hint: he paints perfect manicures, while his client is being pulled in three different directions — literally), what to expect in 2014 in terms of nail art, and the must-have nail color of the year! Plus, he gave us a step-by-step tutorial on how to achieve Zooey's vintage daisy manicure. On Kirbie: Shoshanna dress Better Skin Before "I Do": The Keys to Exfoliating Image Source: When it comes to your skin, a nice dewy glow is never outdated. And a huge factor in achieving that glow? Exfoliation. But sometimes you can be doing more damage than good, especially if you're exfoliating the wrong way! Learn the proper way to slough off dead skin and get that gorgeous glow, whether you have oily, dry, or sensitive skin. Your complexion will thank you. On Kirbie: Rachel Roy dress The Perfect Wedding Day Cat Eye Image Source: When it comes to winged liner, nobody wants to "wing" it. Nobody. Applying winged liner can turn a gorgeous classic into a dreadful mess faster than you can say "felt tip," so it's crucial that you know the proper steps to creating the gorgeous liner look. It will make the process at lot easier and less daunting. Celebrity makeup artist and self-proclaimed "wing master" Troy Jensen teaches us the insider tricks to upping the wing ante. (We can definitely confirm his master status.) And because winged liner is up for interpretation, we have three options to choose from: the sweet, basic wing; the mod double-liner style; and the va-va-voom cat eye. So we have a look just for you, whether you're a Lauren Conrad type or embracing your inner '60s siren. On Kirbie: Clover Canyon dress Perfect Makeup Tips For the Photos That Will Last a Lifetime Image Source: When it comes to looking good in photos, it's not always about the pose. If your face is shiny, or you're not applying the right shades of makeup, it can drastically alter how you appear in your pictures (even though you look fantastic in real life). So whether it's for social media or just a snap for your keepsake box, these five beauty tips are sure to save your next photo session. On Kirbie: H&M Prepare For Rain: Three Hairstyles That Look Good Wet and Dry Image Source: Aside from the hassle it can cause to your commute, rain also puts a, er, damper on doing your hair in the morning. These three styles are guaranteed to look good when you leave your home and even hold up against rain or humidity. Plus, they all look great on just-out-of-the-shower hair, too. On Kirbie: Greylin top Make Your Own Makeup Refresher For the Reception Image Source: One of my first beauty purchases as a teenager was Mario Badescu's Facial Spray. My mom drove me to a beauty boutique two towns over, so I could use my allowance money to buy it — all because Hilary Duff raved about its skin-saving benefits. Her skin was (and is!) amazing, so I knew it had to be worth it. My friends went and purchased it because of me — we were like a rosewater gang of sorts. It made my skin glow, and for someone with perpetually dry skin, this is somewhat of a miracle product. Plus, it helped coif unruly baby hairs. I carried that giant spray bottle to school in my backpack and now keep the travel size handy in my purse — a loyal fan over 10 years later. This spray is full of aloe and herbs, but the main ingredient is rosewater. It's anti-inflammatory and calming, so it's a real treat when you're traveling or need to refresh your makeup. So the real question is why wouldn't you make your own at home? The recipe is simple, has the best scent, and makes a great gift to boot.

Noble Chase Butler correspondence and papers
1820-1933, bulk 1871-1933
2 mss. boxes
Manuscript Section, Indiana Division
Indiana State Library
Processed by: Christiana Baich, October 2005
Noble Chase Butler was born in Salem, Indiana on February 21, 1844. His parents were John H. and Mary Chase Butler. He attended Hanover College for three years. While in his junior year in 1863, Butler enlisted in Company H of the 93rd Indiana Volunteer Infantry and fought in the Civil War.
When discharged in 1865, Butler began studying law at his father's Salem law office. He also attended the University of Louisville law school. Butler continued his studies in New Albany at the law firm of his father and Walter Q. Gresham. He became a partner in the firm when he was admitted to the bar and remained there until 1867. He was then named registrar of bankruptcy in New Albany on the nomination and recommendation of Salmon P. Chase, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. On May 27, 1868, he married Anne Browning of Lexington. They had six children including Alice, Anne, Florence, John and Noble, Jr.
Butler practiced law in New Albany until 1879 when he was called to Indianapolis to serve as clerk of the U.S. District Circuit Courts. When the Circuit Court was abolished in 1912, he continued as clerk of the District Court.
From 1902 to 1928, Butler lectured at the Indiana law school and was widely known for his skill as an orator and writer of essays. He contributed regularly to newspapers, legal publications, and magazines.
Butler was one of the incorporators of the National Red Cross Society. The Indiana branch of the society, the American Red Cross, was organized in the library of his home.
After five years of poor health, Noble Chase Butler died on October 7, 1933.
The collection consists primarily of letters to Butler from the period 1870-1933. There are a number of letters from Walter Q. Gresham, his law partner, on political and legal affairs. A large portion of the remaining correspondence is family letters, including letters from his son, Noble Butler, Jr. while a student at Rose Polytechnic Institute, Terre Haute (1898) and from his daughters in Oberlin, Ohio; Ithaca, New York; and Summit, New Jersey. There are also letters regarding the mental illness of his son John (1907). Also included are a small number of Butler family legal documents and letters (1820-1869) and receipts for Butler family purchases, principally in Indianapolis (1880-1900).

State lawmakers are poised to approve huge tax cuts for business this week — but delay them from taking effect.
A deal announced this morning between Gov. Jan Brewer and Republican legislative leaders would:
• Cut the corporate income tax rate from just below 6 percent to 4.9 percent.
• Allow some multi-state corporations to pay no corporate income taxes at all.
• Reduce the figure used to compute property taxes for all businesses by 10 percent.
• Permit companies to write off new equipment purchases faster, reducing their state income taxes.
Brewer said the plan includes an increase in how much of local school taxes for homeowners are paid by the state. That is designed to ensure that the reduced property taxes paid by business are not shifted to homeowners.
House Speaker Kirk Adams, R-Mesa, said the changes will send a strong message to companies that Arizona is an attractive state to do business.
Adams acknowledged the move comes as state lawmakers continue to debate and approve controversial measures aimed at illegal immigrants, measures that have gained national attention. But he said corporate finance officers deciding where to relocate will look at the bottom line and not side issues like these.

The first improvement involved a refinement and modification of the architecture BPP used to represent the dependence of variables within the game. By modifying the simple network used by the original BPP, it is shown that significant improvements can be made by refining the way hands are classified within the system. This improvement eradicated one of the more serious problems evident within the original version where BPP would bet inappropriately strongly or weakly given the strength of its hand. Also presented is the effects of modeling the dependence between opposing players hands (due to hands being dealt from the same deck) which was omitted from the previous version of BPP.
Opponent modeling has been found to be an essential element in successful poker play. The weak opponent modeling implemented in the original BPP has been improved in a number of areas to allow more detailed inferences about the strength of ones hand to be made, and hence provide better performance. In particular, specific opponent modeling is introduced as a way to model every player, whether they be weak or strong. BPP observes and maintains information about the actions of each opponent and uses this information to build a simple model of their play. This model is used to predict the strength of each opponent's hidden cards. The program adapts to the style of each opponent and attempts to exploit any predictable actions. This technique replaces the generic opponent modeling method employed previously, which maintained a description of ``typical'' play.
A more effective and intuitive bluffing technique will also be introduced in this paper. Not only does BPP indiscriminately over-represent the strength of its hand in a small percentage of games, when making a decision of whether to bluff or not, it also takes into consideration such things as the potential of its visible cards and the likelihood that it's opponent will fall for the bluff.
The final and most significant improvement that will be presented in this thesis is the use of decision networks in computing the expected winnings for each possible action and choosing an action based upon those values. The original version of BPP used a betting strategy based upon expert knowledge with inefficiency introduced through course approximations. Much of the expert knowledge has either been refined or removed from the betting strategy allowing BPP to select an action based upon a more accurate future expectation of winnings. This improved betting strategy utilises a decision node, representing the available decisions (actions) that BPP can perform, and a utility node for representing potential winnings. The network is effectively used in determining the expected winnings that each action is likely to return given the current belief in winning. The new betting strategy provides a significant improvement in the accuracy of the evaluation function used to select an action, and as a result, performance of BPP has improved greatly.
Experimental results will be presented to demonstrate the notable improvements in BPP's playing ability due to the new features implemented.
This thesis is organised as follows. Chapter 2 introduces poker terminology, describes the game of Five-Card Stud (the poker variation played by BPP) and discusses other important work done in computer poker. Chapter 3 describes the original architecture of BPP in detail. Chapter 4 discusses the improved network structure used to improve BPP's representation of the world. It also discusses the refinement of hand classifications used throughout BPP. Chapter 5 describes the improved opponent modeling techniques used by BPP. Chapter 6 presents the new betting strategy implemented using decision networks. It also looks at the ways in which BPP's bluffing behaviour has been improved. Chapter 7 is an overview of the experimental results obtained during the course of the thesis and a description of the methods used to obtain them. Conclusions and suggestions for future research are presented in Chapter 8.

Verizon Aims to Allow Customers to Pay for Just the Cable Channels They Want

Move could hurt sports broadcast industry, weaker channels
It's not just you that's irritated that you're paying for television channels you don't want due to bundling. Cable service providers are also paying a similar price. And while some -- like Time Warner Cable Inc. (
) -- are affiliated with those who profit off bundling themselves, many of the cable market's new players are purely on the losing end of the equation.
Verizon Communications Inc. (
co-owner of America's largest wireless mobile device service network
and the
FiOS fiber-optic cable service
, is looking to put its foot down and reshape a consumer's cable-shopping experience to a "buffet" of sorts. Chief programming negotiator at Verizon Terry Denson comments, "We are paying for a customer who never goes to the channel."
an interview
The Wall Street Journal
he explains that Verizon is in negotiations to give customers access to the entire spectrum of cable channels (besides a handful of premium channels).
Verizon is upset about paying bundlers for content its customers don't necessarily want.
[Image Source: Android Community]
Whenever Verizon's set-top box documents a customer watching a particular channel for more than 5 minutes, Verizon would pay the bundler for that channel, and charge the customer for that channel. Mr. Denson says the deal would cover a "significant number of channels". He comments, "If you are willing to give a channel five minutes of your time, the cash register would ring in favor of the programmer"
While the idea of paying based on viewership is relatively old, the mechanism for doing so -- the internet connected set-top box -- is relatively new. In the past there was no way to collect this kind of real-time viewership information, making viewership based pricing more problematic.
Verizon's initial talks have focused on
"midtier and smaller" companies
. The executive said the negotiated deals/service pricing scheme could extend to on-demand viewing and mobile device viewing, as well.
II. Pushback From Broadcast Sports, Big Content Providers
Larger firms like Viacom, Inc. (
) and Walt Disney, Comp. (
) may be reticent to sign up for the bundling scheme, though. They often use bundling to prop up content that has low viewership, but which they deem is important. As Mr. Denson complains, "It feels like certain content players who have a suite of channels attempt to lever the strong ones to prop up the weak ones…without any empirical data to show that these channels are actually viewed or wanted,"
The industry shift may also upset the big-money professional sports industry. Much of the money of professional sports comes from broadcast deals, and much of that revenue in turn comes from fees associated with bundled channels. If fees were solely viewership based, fees could dramatically drop.
Bundling boosts sporting revenue; eliminating it could hurt professional sports.
[Image Source: U.S. Presswire]
For example market researchers Nielsen Holdings NV (
) report that ESPN (owned by Disney only averaged 1 million viewers for content within the first week of its airing. By contrast Comcast Corp.'s (
) USA Network (bundled by subsidiary NBCUniversal) averaged 1.3 million viewers within the first week, on average. But ESPN cost $5.04 per subscriber, while USA Network only cost $0.68 USD, on average.
Bundling fees don't always line up with viewership. [Image Source: WSJ]
Bringing fees in line with viewship could dramatically cut broadcast sports revenues, and in turn sports owners' profits and athlete salaries.
For those reasons some don't believe the effort will catch on. One unnamed executive is quoted as saying that the move would be "resisted fiercely", while another unnamed expert suggest this kind of effort had been around for years and never gone anywhere. The second source suggested that "unless there is a giant seismic shift", the bundling would continue much as it is today.
"I modded down, down, down, and the flames went higher." -- Sven Olsen

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I did my first 10 mile race on Sunday, in 1:23:41 (quite pleased).
I want to move onto doing weights for my wedding/honeymoon, but I'm extremely tempted to do the Gosport half marathon in November whilst I'm sort of running distance fit.
The furthest I've ever ran is 10.5 miles. Would it be too much to ask to do the longer distance in 3 weeks time? Obviously I wouldn't be aiming for a silly time (2 hours?).
What do you think?
You've just done a perfect training run! Go for it.
Haha, thanks Wales!
I've got a nagging feeling that if I don't do it I'll regret not attempting it whilst I was in some sort of shape.
Then I can move onto weight training mixed with the odd run, and put on some bulk without any regrets,
I did get some knee pain in the GSR, but it's eased off already after some heat treatment. I won't be aiming for the same 8min/mile pace so hopefully it's doable!
Anyone have an idea what a good time would be considering my GSR time? My last 5 km was 2 mins slower so I know I was starting to feel it.
Did you prepare perfectly for the 10 mile race? If you didn't do enough tapering (at least a week of very low mileage), then you might be able to build on that time, prepare well for the HM, and maintain, or nearly maintain that pace.
Get one last good long SLOW run in - perhaps 11.5 miles this weekend. Do 2 or 3 sharper 3-6 milers before next Wednesday, to keep your speed up.... then have a good rest for the last 10 days... just a few looseners... let you've body recover in those last 10 days, eat well the last 2... and you should be full of running. Maybe head out at 8:20 miles and see if you can keep it up. Good luck
If you didn't feel like death at the end of the 10 miler then you'll probably be fine. There's no reason why you can't keep up your long runs and start to add in some weight training.
I did feel pretty bad. But I'd slow down to 8:30 or 9:00 min pace to give myself a chance.
I was thinking I'd move to weights, and do a 5/6 mile run at the weekend. Keeps me fitter, and if I wanted to go to a race again, a couple of months training would sort me out.
I completed the GSR in 1hr 18mins and then ran home (six miles) as my Sunday Long run in preparation for my first marathon attempt on the 23rd december 2012 Portsmouth Coastal. I am booked in for the Bexhill Poppy half and the Gosport half before i start the "tapering" count down into December. Getting very apprehensive about the marathon, I am still in the middle of a sixteen week training programme with the long run of 21 miles still to go....end of November. I have completed six half marathons this year with 1hr 48mins being the fastest time. Anyone out there who can reassuure me that I will be okay? Cheers
Thanks for replying booktrunk.....hearing you say that you only did three runs over 16miles as helped!..... how was your recovery after completing it and have you/would you consider doing another one?

The ionosphere is the part of the atmosphere that is ionized by solar radiation.
It plays an important part in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner edge of the magnetosphere.
It has practical importance because, among other functions, it influences radio propagation to distant places on the Earth.
The lowest part of the Earth's atmosphere is called the troposphere and it extends from the surface up to about 10 km (6 miles).
The atmosphere above 10 km is called the stratosphere, followed by the mesosphere.
It is in the stratosphere that incoming solar radiation creates the ozone layer.
At heights of above 80 km (50 miles), in the thermosphere, the atmosphere is so thin that free electrons can exist for short periods of time before they are captured by a nearby positive ion.
The number of these free electrons is sufficient to affect radio propagation.
This portion of the atmosphere is ionized and contains a plasma which is referred to as the ionosphere.
In a plasma, the negative free electrons and the positive ions are attracted to each other by the electromagnetic force, but they are too energetic to stay fixed together in an electrically neutral molecule.
The ionosphere has irregular patches of ionization.

The components of residential investment in the fourth quarter GDP report (which is subject to revision, of course) is worth looking at more closely.
Single-family housing, which made up more than 3.5% of GDP at the peak, has declined precipitously, but registered a slight increase in the fourth quarter. Another driver of growth in residential investment was brokers' commissions, which were sparked by the rapid rate of home sales. These drivers were offset by continued declines as a percentage of GDP in multi-family investment and residential improvements.
What should you read into the numbers? The recovery is in the timing; the new home and resale home market began its decline earlier than other segments of the residential investment economy. Improvements are driven partly by home values and partly by income; multi-family investment is driven by access to credit markets and property valuations.
Sustained improvement in the residential real estate market will help to drive increased investment in home improvements. The dynamic for the multi-family is somewhat more complex, but hinges to a large degree on stability in the employment markets.
