Review for Platte Woods Precision Auto Care
TYLER S. on 10/01/2012
"Always a breeze..."
Uber-friendly and knowledgeable staff. Always willing to go the extra mile and provide top-notch service with a smile. With my first two visits, I got quotes from a few other well-know service stations and Platte Woods Precision Auto Care blew everyone else out of the water with their unbeatable prices, speedy service, and friendly employees.

Commission strives to offer opportunities to Wauwatosa's youth
Adults, students work together to keep youth engaged
For more than five decades, Tosans from different walks of life and age groups have come together. Their goal: to offer viable opportunities to the city's youth.
Since its inception in the 1950s, the Wauwatosa Youth Commission has been a catalyst for a number of initiatives that have benefited several generations of school-aged children residing within the community.
Over the years, activities have included community service activities, fundraisers, opportunities to take an active role in local government and game nights.
"We try to provide entertainment, but we also want to provide opportunities to lend a helping hand when it's possible," said Kay Lorenzen, who has served on the commission the past six years.
Keeping youth engaged
Although it has evolved over the years, commission chair Sam Benedict said the group has always attempted to answer a central question: How can the city's youth spend their time when they are not engaged in school or homework?
"In many ways, this hasn't changed since (the commission) got started," Benedict said. "We're always looking at ways to keep young people engaged."
From the onset, city leaders believed one of the best ways to support engagement was to give youth within the community a voice.
Today's iteration of the commission encompasses 50 members including adults, members of the Wauwatosa Police Department, recreation staff and elected officials. The group meets monthly from September to May to discuss and brainstorm.
Half of the people serving on the commission are students and include eighth graders at Longfellow and Whitman Middle schools as well as two students at each grade level at East and West High schools.
Membership more recently has been extended to students attending private and parochial institutions in the area, including Divine Savior Holy Angels, Marquette University and Pius XI high schools.
Commission projects
One of the commission's first projects remains in place to this day. Citywide, all students approaching age 18 receive information on voting. Seventeen-year-old boys also are reminded of the Selective Service and are encouraged to sign up for it as they reach age 18.
In recent years, events put on by the commission have included Concert for a Cause, an event that featured musical entertainment and other festivities with the intent of supporting Tosa Skateboarders United and a skate board park within the city.
The commission also has sponsored such activities as bell-ringing on behalf of the Salvation Army during the holiday season and cleaning up the grounds outside Kyle's Corner, a Wauwatosa-based organization aimed at helping grieving children, teens and families cope with the death of a loved one.
Other events that have become annual traditions for young Tosans have included a middle school dance and a citywide basketball tournament.
"These started because issues had arisen in the community about a lack of after-school activities," Lorenzen said. "(Students) came to us asking for suggestions, particularly after youth restrictions were put in place at Mayfair Mall."
Benedict, whose children are grown, became involved with the commission when his children were school aged. He is one of the members behind a mock school board held annually to give youth an idea of the types of decisions actual board members are faced with, year in and out.
"It's turned out to be a good exercise because it gives the students a feel for how local government works," Benedict said.
Benedict said he is proud to live in a community that has such a well-oiled mechanism in place, and he hopes the commission continues to have a strong presence in Wauwatosa in the years ahead.
"One of the fundamentally important things within a community is giving young people an opportunity to grow up and be a part of civic life," Benedict said. "When you have this, I think it makes for a stronger community."

My wife and I always travel to Cape Cod in the autumn. When we visit Provincetown, the Admirals Landing is the only B&B we wish to stay. We are 5-time returnee's to the "Admiral"and always look forward to the cozy rooms, and great hospitality from our host's Audri & Robyn. Breakfast is always a treat, and never boring.

Living in Florida has many upsides, but fall is magnificent in New England. We planned our trip according to active changing colors. Never expecting to find this B&B in P'town. The owners were warm and friendly. Made us feel like we were coming home. The guests were delightful. The accommodations were absolutely such a surprise we wanted to stay longer just to enjoy the room. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

From the time we arrived until the time we left, we were in a home away from home. The hosts were friendly, interesting, and catered to our needs, anticipating every one.

This was our first time to Provincetown and the hosts of Admiral's Landing, Audrey and Robin, couldn't have been more accommodating. This B&B is on the quiet end of Bradford St, but just one block off of the hustle and bustle of Commercial St. The location was perfect. Our room was cozy, very clean, bright and airy, with plenty of drawers and closet space to unpack our bags for the 5 days we were there.

A small paradise: removed from the world, it's a place to simply be happy
The location gives you lots of possibilities to go out all night long but is also pretty quiet. There are many restaurants around as well as clubs and pretty close there is a supermarket for the daily needs. But still you'll gonna love the view from the rooftopgarden :-)

Was this Hillary's jumping the shark moment in the 2016 presidential run for the Democrat nomination?
Maybe her barking like a dog was an attempt to bypass the email scandal, Benghazi scandal, Clinton Foundation scandal and the #FeelTheBern movement by trying the attract the criminally insane to her campaign!

Series: O'Brien Family #3
Published by Cecy Robson LLC on February 28th 2017

Pages: 278 pages

Amazon | B&N | Goodreads
Wren O'Brien isn't your typical female. As the only girl from a loud Irish family with seven siblings, she prefers fast cars to lip gloss and bad boys to good men. It's the reason she's nursing a wounded soul and keeping her distance from a dangerous ex.
Evan Jonah is running an empire and just moved from the lavish thoroughfares of London to the gritty streets of Philadelphia. When he walks into the nearest dealership, he's expecting to find a reliable vehicle to handle the brutal winters, not a sexy female car rep with killer legs.
Wren doesn't know why "Hotness in a Suit" asked her out. She doesn't expect a great time or a night of passion that knocks her on her ass. But that's exactly what Evan shows her.
She also never counted on how hard and fast she'd fall. But men like Evan—good men with even better hearts—don't desire tough-talking Philly girls for long.
Evan has never met a woman like Wren. But he's up for the challenge and ready to prove her wrong.
The O'Brien family is made up of seven children and Wren is the only girl which means she is tough as nails. She has a mouth of a sailor but looks like a beauty queen and the combination throws Evan for a loop when they first meet. Evan is quite and would never date someone like Wren, but there is something about her that he is drawn to and it's not just her looks.
Crave Me is a classic case of opposites attracts but the way Cecy Robson writes it, it's far from boring. Robson takes you on a ride that involves romance, laughter and suspense. Taking that ride with Evan and Wren was pure joy. Wren is the type of woman you want to be friends with and Evan is the sweet, sexy guy that you would want for your own. Seeing how they grow to love each over months (that's right there's no instant-a-love here) and how the enrich each others lives made their HEA all the more sweet and believable. Do not worry, it wasn't all "sweet" there was plenty of naughty in their journey to that HEA and if you like a bit of mystery and suspense with your romance than Robson has you covered too.
Wren's ex is a dangerous man who likes to pop up from time to time to remind her of the hell he put her through but between her overprotective brothers and Evan she has nothing to worry about or does she? You'll have to read Crave Me to find out if this couple makes it unmarked to their HEA.
I highly recommend Crave Me to romance lovers and I can't wait for the next novel, Feel Me [May 23rd 2017] featuring Declan, Assistant District Attorney, one of many of Wren's brothers, but until then I'm going back and reading Once Kissed and Let Me.

Yes, be completely shameless about it, Natalia. As long as it's not Sept 3rd (the evening of our 10th Anniversary Bash), I'll do my best to be there for the Lincoln Center screening. In fact, let's make it an occasion for another D-Word f2f (we can never have too many).

Hello All,
I'm a Sound Engineer in the Seattle area. A local Producer and member turned me on to your site and I thought I should say "Hi" instead of lurk. I've worked on all types of projects but I really enjoy the doc world. The last doc project I worked on that's been completed was A WINK AND A SMILE by Deirdre Timmons. A film about 10 women and a local burlesque class for non-professionals.
I'm looking forward to learning from your community and, if I can, passing on some of my knowledge.

Hi guys. I've been absent from this site for a year or so and am back for more.
The process of making and showing Three Soldiers was intense. Spending time with families in mourning, learning about documentary distribution, raising a family and oh yeah, that damn job.
Thank goodness I woke up last month knowing what my next project will be. I'm relieved – wasn't sure for a while whether there would be a next project. Nice to come back to this site and find the friendly banter and invaluable inspiration.

Hi all:
I'm a new member here. NYC based doc filmmaker. Produced and directed over 16 short docs for television and science and tech vids for the web.
Currently working on a feature doc about screenwriting guru Robert McKee.
http://seminarthemovie.com/. Reel of stuff: http://bradleyglenn.com/.
I have a short doc (10-25 (?) mins, approx)I'm looking for an NYC based FCP editor for, strong story editor. Also, looking to be like a sponge and learn everything all of you have to offer. Thanks.
Thu 9 Jul 2009
Welcome, Bradley. I'm fascinated by McKee. Haven't taken his workshop but I highly respect his book, Story. Enjoyed your trailer, keep us posted on how it's coming along.
Thu 9 Jul 2009
Welcome Bradley. Sounds like a tough project to be working on McKee's "Story"! Good luck with that.

Hello to all at the big D, my name is Emile Guertin, I am an editor of several years cutting mainly for Discovery and NatGeo, but am now turning my attention to directing my long-planned indie doc about faith in Manila, Philippines.
It's a character driven portrait of several Filipinos and how they reconcile their fate with the divine. It's my first doc as director, but as a strong storytelling editor, it feels like a natural progression for me to be behind the camera.
My initial reason for joining D-Word is to seek creative support and advice as I venture down a path I have not trodden before! Shooting in a couple of months.
Influences on me Joseph Campbell, Karen Armstrong, James Longley... and others.
Currently based in Sai Gon, Viet Nam, originally from London, UK.
Fri 10 Jul 2009
Oh as an extra note, most notable indie project I cut was 'Bunso: the Youngest', directed by the lovely Ditsi Carolino, Manila, Philippines. Premiered at IDFA 2004. Here's a clip if anyone's interested.
Fri 10 Jul 2009
A special welcome to The D-Word, Emile! I think you're our first active member based in Vietnam. :-)

Hi you all, I'm a documentary film director and producer based in Spain. I'm half french and half spanish and lived for many years in Germany... I guess that makes me really an european... I have a small production company with two colleagues but friends. We are now working in several documentary film projects that would need international coproducers, so I am working on creating a network of people and see what happens. I'm looking forward to the interchange in the D-Word. Visit our website www.elegantmob.net to know more about me/us. All the best. St.

Hi Jason, hopefully next time I won´t miss the conversation...

You can still take part in it, Stéphane. It's part of the beauty of conversations at The D-Word – they never really end. A warm welcome to you and Emile.

Hello, I am documentary film student in Zagreb, Croatia and I am writing my final school paper under the title "Documentary Film Distribution"..any good thoughts on possible literature adn where and how to find it?
Sat 11 Jul 2009
In reply to Sinisha Juricic's post on Fri 10 Jul 2009 :
Assume you're talking about international distribution.
A lot depends on what you mean by literature, and on the exact topic your paper covers.
If it's sales brochures etc, many of these will be online; just google and see what you come up with.
Also find out which person within BBC Worldwide, National Geographic Television International and other large distributors deal with Croatia and ask them for advice on where to find literature.
If you mean books or papers on the distribution business, I haven't ever come across any, though that doesn't mean they don't exist.

Hailing from Oakland, I'm making a strange-but-true documentary about how I encountered a Physics principle by following a string of coincidences to it's illogical conclusion.
51 Birch Street is the most similar documentary I've seen, as it deals with unknown people and private lives but expands those small truths to universally felt emotions and issues of family life and it's mystery.
Looking for collaborators in opening a doc production collective in the Bay Area – anyone know someone who'd be interested?
Mon 13 Jul 2009
Hi Julia – i'm sooooooooooo intrigued by your trailer. incredibly excited to see the film that this becomes. welcome.
Mon 13 Jul 2009
thank you so much! too bad you are all the way in Chicago – but good for you on the skate flick, that genre is totally different out here
Tue 14 Jul 2009
is it too bad that i'm all the way here or too bad that you're all the way there? guess it depends on the criteria.
and i totally agree the skate doc. genre is way different out your way... that's kind of a driving force for my story in a way.
Tue 14 Jul 2009
Welcome, Julia. Intriguing premise and rich material, to be sure. Good luck with the film and with your idea for a collective.
Tue 14 Jul 2009
It's been years since I've posted, but I've been busy, so I'll reintroduce myself.
I'm Brian Boyko, I'm an indie documentary filmmaker, and I've just "went pro" – while I'm still working on my quixotic documentary on New Zealand electoral reform (now renamed "Importing Democracy") I've put it on the backburner, instead writing a book on the same subject, as I take on paying work.
I'm likely to get a field producer gig for an in pre-production documentary on the art and culture of Cuba. I'd have to get permission from the U.S. State Dept. to go, but hell yes, I'm going for it!
I've also been approached by a couple of corporate clients, and I'm now spending about half the time at my day job on video (I was hired as a writer, but the job responsibilities have morphed as I got better with video.
I just ordered a Panasonic Lumix GH1 and also plan to get into wedding videography to make some money on the side to continue to fund the documentary film projects.
Anyway – that's me again!
Tue 14 Jul 2009
Welcome back, Brian, again!
Wed 15 Jul 2009
Hi again, I have already introduced myself a week ago or so, but can someone help me with how to best navigate the site? I can see all the topics with related conversation strings, but how do I find the first posting for a certain thread so I can track the evolution of the conversation? At the moment I find myself dipping into a conversation without knowing the bigger picture. Thanks.
Wed 15 Jul 2009
The only way is to go back within a thread and try to track down the first posting, Emile. This is a different kind of structure than topic-based ones (like DV User , for instance). But it's actually much more conducive to conversation, especially if you keep up with it regularly.
Wed 15 Jul 2009
emile, don't worry about jumping in during the middle of a conversation. as long as you have something to add (or at least something reasonable funny to say), you're welcome to post. the key, though, is to check D-Word at least once a day so that you don't get too far behind in any conversation (that you wanted to be a part of). yes, this site can be an addiction, but if you are really disciplined, it'll only suck 10-15 minutes from your day. if you are not disciplined, then you'll end up like the rest of us suckers.
Wed 15 Jul 2009
Hi. I'm Dave. I've spent a year and a half immersed in my political documentary. I have 60 hours and have been putting off starting post until I have a little bit of money. My mentor suggested this would be a good place to look for an editor.
Thu 16 Jul 2009
Edited Thu 16 Jul 2009 by Doug Block
Welcome, Dave. Hate to break the news to you, but a good editor costs a good deal of money. But if you're serious about finding one in the LA area, you can ask for suggestions here or you could get in touch with some local doc makers (possible through the IDA) and ask them for suggestions. Good luck with your doc.

Hello from Madrid,
I'm Mariangela and together with a Spanish director I am producing a an independent documentary mainly shot in Spain but that will require a few days of shooting in the U.S., more precisly around Los Angeles, route 66 direction Las Vegas in August (8-12 August).
This is also the main reason that lead me to find the D-word, but I must confess this page seems really great.
We are looking for a sound recordist for 2 max. 3 shooting days in August. Anyone know someone who'd be interested?
Any help on how to address best this search will be really, really appreciated.
Please mail me to:
Thanks a lot and saludos from Madrid.
Fri 17 Jul 2009
Hi there,
So I've been lurking around here for a while now – have pulled a lot of great information from the site – and figure I ought to introduce myself. I'm just finishing up my first feature doc – about a year in the life of a porter on the Inca Trail. We just 'unveiled' the "website": http://www.michacrafilm.com/ and Facebook page a few days ago. Definitely a rookie at all of this, so feedback/advice is welcome on both. I look forward to being more a part of the community here.
Sat 18 Jul 2009
Jason, great to have you here with us, and glad you're finally posting. Best of luck with your project.
Sat 18 Jul 2009
oops – that's an actual website, not just a "website"

Hi everyone,
This is my first post. I am a documentary film "enthusiast". I actually own a DVD/CD/Blu-Ray replication company called The Dubhouse. I work with a number of independent/documentary filmmakers (including Doug Block some years back). We have 8 plant locations across the country (NY, L.A., FL, NC, IN) and can handle any quantity fully packaged. Let me know if I can help.

Hey, good to see you here, Michael. It was a pleasure working with you in the past. Feel free to give us more details about The Dubhouse in our Classifieds topic.

Hi first time writing. Have always been a reader. I'm working on a documentary with potentially some big artists. Somewhat nervous have always been able to fund my own projects. I have reached a point where funding the rest of this project is not an option. I wanted to reach out and see if anyone can point me in the right direction to investors. If anything, just some knowledge n the matter.
Tue 21 Jul 2009
Albie, no way to do that without knowing more about your film, and even then it's difficult. You might want to get one of the Morrie Warshawski books on fundraising, which would tell you the best ways to present your project to investors. He has a good book on fundraising house parties, too.
Tue 21 Jul 2009
Thank You, Doug good point. I will look into that. It's a film about some musicians wrapped around this enigmatic label. Who in there heyday in the 90's had a chance for a label. They seem to be coming back and the internet is a buzz with them again on their upcoming release. I have complete access to the bands on the label as well as the particular band I mentioning.
Fri 24 Jul 2009
Hello all! I've been an entertainment journalist for many years here in Hollywood (with the trades, and also with Premiere and the NYT), covering film festivals worldwide, but have always had a passion for filmmaking and film. I also occasionally write for and help run a film website on independent and international film, Cinema Without Borders (www.cinemawithoutborders.com) and continue to run my database company about film actors worldwide (www.ulmerscale.com). My only professional doc experience has been directing a documentary for the BBC in London after college. Now, many years later, I've decided to take the plunge again and make what I hope will become a series on the film villages of the world. It's about the life (and sometimes death) of the villages behind some of my favorite movies – Visconti's Terra Trema, Toratore's Cinema Paradiso, as well as Il Postino and dozens more (the series begins in Sicily but will continue through various countries). It's a sort of anthropology of village life as seen in, and changed by, some of the world's great movies...I am now searching for a DP to team up with me when I go back to the villages of Sicily to shoot the pilot, possibly this fall but more likely next spring. Hoping to find an ally in my passion project – preferably someone who speaks a little italian as well, though it's not necessary (I spent a year in Naples a kid). Anyway, I look forward to discovering some fascinating folks and ideas on this site, and if you are interested, feel free to email me. Please also check out the article that started me on this village journey – a piece I wrote for our website called "Entering 'Paradiso' – a Guide to Inhabiting Your Favorite Film," which you can find at:
Thanks for taking the time to wade through this overlong introduction!

My fellow filmmakers,
I am producing a documentary, called "The Eyes of Thailand", about the founder of the world's first Asian Elephant Hospital in Thailand, which builds prosthetic limbs for elephants who step on landmines. http://www.eyesofthailand.com>
As of Friday, July 31, I received word that Motala, one of the elephant landmine survivors I filmed in 2007, will receive her first prosthetic limb on August 15-16, 2009--10 years after her landmine accident!
For the details and a message from the Elephant Hospital founder, Soraida Salwala, please visit: http://www.eyesofthailand.com/blog/
Needless to say, I have to film this for the documentary, but I will not hear from my grants and funding proposals until September or October. Therefore, I am writing to ask each of you to make a tax-deductible contribution to the film so I can raise the US $3,000 needed.
The cost break down is:
$2300 airfare (Thai Airways or China Airways)
$500 camera person in Thailand
$200 food and lodging expenses for me
I need to raise this within the next 48 hours, before plane tickets get any more expensive!
If 100 people donate $30...
Or 60 people donate $50...
Or 30 people donate $100...
Or 10 people donate $300...
Or 3 people donate $1,000...
I will be able to purchase the ticket on Monday, August 3, 2009.
Note: As of 12:00pm PDT Saturday, we've raised $685.
Please be a part of this historic moment and a pivotal part of the film by contributing TODAY!
You can make your tax-deductible donation through the film's fiscal sponsor, The San Francisco Film Society, at: http://www.sffs.org/donate/donate-now.aspx?pid=47
With deepest gratitude,
Windy Borman
Producer, Writer and Director, "The Eyes of Thailand"

Forum 3: Actions
Consider the theme below and enter a SUGGESTION FOR ACTION OR PRACTICE that women could undertake in seeking new mastery in relation to the theme.
What is actually unique about the dynamics of feminine leadership?
Each of us is Oneness embodied, a balance of inherent unity in the form of separated bodies, learning to know ourselves and one another as That. Achieving this balance is a process. Because many women gather together especially in times of stress, women face the challenge of achieving a true individuation when called by our natural impulse toward the collective. At the same time because women naturally have the inclination to form relational networks, we are better able to exchange relevant wisdom and accelerate mutual learning during this critical time. Our growing networks form the foundation for a new kind of leadership that is more feminine in style where the collective is 'leaderful' and each participant's nature and skills emerge and lead under specific conditions. Women are reaching into this kind of leadership as they step into their own sovereignty and come together to guide the human heart toward a more balanced and sane world.
Based on these initial observations, or any new ones you might bring, please enter below:

Lengthy periods of unemployment early in a young person's work life can have lasting negative effects on future earnings, productivity, and employment opportunities. Recent analysis indicates that young people who are unemployed for as long as six months risk earning an estimated $22,000 less over the next 10 years due to the negative impact of prolonged unemployment. For the 967,000 young people who experienced a lengthy period of unemployment, which was an all-time high reached in 2010, it is estimated that these individuals will lose a total of $21.4 billion in earnings over the next 10 years. Developing policies such as those under the Urban Jobs Act would assist youth in obtaining the education and skills necessary for success in the labor market, helping reduce youth unemployment and strengthen the economy.The Urban Jobs Act would create an Urban Jobs Program that would award competitive grants to national and regional non-profit organizations, in partnership with local affiliates, to provide a holistic approach for preparing youth ages 18 through 24 for entry into the job market. An organization that received a grant would provide a comprehensive set of services that includes:
- Case management services to help participants effectively utilize the services offered by the program;
- Educational programming, including skills assessment, reading and math remediation, educational enrichment, General Education Development (GED) credential preparation, and post-secondary education;
- Employment and job readiness activities, including mentoring, placement in community service opportunities, internships, on-the-job training, occupational skills training, job placement in unsubsidized jobs, and personal development; and
- Support services, including health and nutrition referral, housing assistance, training in interpersonal and basic living skills, transportation, child care, clothing, and other assistance as needed.

The Audi RS6 Avant and RS7 Sportback certainly aren't hurting for power. Their 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8s offer mountains of muscle as tall as the Alps. However, the engineers at the Four Rings are pushing those peaks just even higher for the new Performance versions of the pair. Tweaks to the engine management, bring horsepower up to 597 ponies and 516 lb-ft of torque. Temporary overboost can take the twist to 553 lb-ft, though.
This high-performance duo can haul passengers with aplomb by hitting 62 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds – two tenths quicker than a regular RS. Even more impressive, the 12.1-second run to 124 mph also takes 1.4 seconds less than the standard version. Top speed remains the same 155 mph, but the optional Dynamic Package takes off the limiter to let the RS6 reach 174 mph and the RS7 go 189.5 mph.
The eight-speed tiptronic remains from the standard RS versions, and it routes power through the Quattro all-wheel drive system with a 40:60 front-rear split. An optional sport differential at the back can also provide some extra assistance. Both Performance models come standard with an adaptive air suspension, but for those willing to spend a little more a stiffer RS sport suspension plus with Dynamic Ride Control is available, as well.
The Performance pair launches in Germany at the beginning of November, but there's reason to get excited in the US, too. Audi spokesperson Mark Dahncke confirms to Autoblog that the RS7 Performance is coming here. More details about it should arrive around the Los Angeles Auto Show, he said.

Throne Records
Funeral Moth - Dense Fog 2LP
Import, released by Throne Records in Spain. Description from the label: VINYL 2xLP ALBUM | GATEFOLD SLEEVE åá 140gr vinyls åá 350gr gatefold sleeve åá Black-inked paper sleeves åá Collector's edition: 75 hand-numbered copies on sea fog transparent vinyl åá Black vinyl edition: 200 copies _____________________________________________________ Throne presents the vinyl version of Japanese extreme Doom debut album. Funeral Moth formed back in 2005 and, as common in the ancient Japanese tradition, have been cautiously, slowly, firmly evolving, step by step, until their debut album is finally unleashed! This band is made up of members and ex-members of other Japanese bands such as Coffins, Psycho To Black, Deathchurch and Realm. "Dense Fog" instills eerie melodies by 2 guitars and 6 strings bass guitar, minimalist yet smashing drums, and growling guttural voice. Extremely slow rhythm and contrast of dark tranquility versus extreme aggression. Here's 4 songs, about 74minutes of extreme Doom that should be so! Justin Hartwig from Mournful Congregation contributed excellent lead guitar. This is very resembling of late era Corrupted, with Funeral Moth's own sound though.

CIRM Gains Access to Five of BioTime's ESC Lines
BioTime and the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) have inked a deal through which researchers in California will gain access to five clinical-grade human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines. Under terms of the deal, BioTime will initially provide research-grade cell lines and within a year make GMP-grade cell lines available together with documentation and complete DNA sequence information. CIRM is a stem cell agency established as part of a $3 billion funding measure in California for stem cell-related research and clinical development.
The cell lines that BioTime will be making available through the partnership include ESI-014, ESI-017, ESI-035, ESI-051, and ESI-053. Research-grade versions of the cell lines will be available to CIRM grantees and California-based researchers free of charge until the end of April 2011 for research-use only. The GMP-grade versions of the same cell lines and access to relevant documentation and genome DNA sequence information will be made available, at cost-price, by November 22, 2011. Organizations looking to use the GMP cell lines for therapeutic or other commercial applications will have to pay BioTime future royalties on sales of resulting products. BioTime will also retain the rights to exploit its cell lines for research and therapeutic applications.
BioTime president and CEO Michael D. West, Ph.D., says that as well as providing his firm with a potential future royalty stream, the deal with CIRM will likely provide benefits in terms of expanding scientific knowledge. "The publication of research results using these cell lines may benefit BioTime's own work to better understand the characteristics of the lines when used to manufacture human therapeutics," he states.

Oil and most risk assets lower as market awaits outcome of Greek negotiations
After a week with a bit of optimism that some of the key pieces looked like they were falling place to orchestrate a soft landing in most of the global economies Europe has moved back into the forefront as a Greek deal is still not done. Many investor/traders were slowly pricing in a Greek deal being completed sometime last week...and then during the weekend but still no deal. The market is reacting negatively with most risk asset markets lower to start the week as the confidence level wanes that a deal will be done by the morning deadline today...especially since several deadlines have already been missed.
The euro has been trading in negative territory since trading began last night resulting in the US dollar firming and oil (most commodities) and equities are all lower as a result. The macro trade was definitely the dominant trade during the Asian trading session and has been during the European session so far with US equity futures pointing to a lower opening on Wall Street this morning. The positive bounce in risk assets on Friday from the much better than expected US nonfarm payroll number seemed to be running out of steam by Friday's close and the growing sentiment that the markets are overdone or oversold has carried into today with Greece currently acting as the catalyst for the current modest profit taking selling in oil and equities.
The evolving geopolitics surrounding Iran and Nigeria are still in the forefront but for today they are acting more as a floor in prices rather than a price driver. That said although oil prices are lower to start the day the geopolitical risk premium is still growing on the Brent side of the world as the Brent/WTI spread has widened another $0.40/bbl or so on the day on a combination of pipeline issues in Nigeria and the uncertainty in the Middle East. The ENI pipeline in Nigeria was struck by the MEND group in the Niger Delta region. It was not a big event but more of a reminder that the situation in Nigeria is becoming less stable once again in both the oil rich south and in the north where Boko Harem has been causing havoc with suicide bombings. A small amount of oil was lost due to the MEND action.
In the Middle East more sanctions are potentially evolving after the US Senate passed another set of sanctions that could impact a much wider group of companies doing business with Iran as the newly proposed sanctions are directed to the main oil tanker fleet that moves Iranian oil to the market. Whether or not all of the sanctions that have been put in place so far or the newly proposed ones (above) will have an impact on Iran's nuclear program is a big unknown. Iran has been ramping up its rhetoric and has been sending out its naval fleet in an effort to show its military strength to the west. The big wild card is will the Israeli's feel comfortable enough that all of the sanctions will make a difference or will they continue to be very concerned over the potential threat of Iran developing a nuclear weapon If the threat is a growing sentiment of the Israeli government the potential for an Israeli attack on Iran will grow. There was indications in an article last week that the Israelis may possibly launch an attack sometime this spring.
In my view the single biggest threat to the flow of oil in the region will be if the Israelis launch an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities which for certain will result in a strong response by the Iranians. This is a huge wildcard and as I have been saying it is currently acting as a floor in prices and if the likelihood of such an attack grows the floor will quickly switch to an upside price driver as the risk premium will grow very quickly.
The equity markets ended the week strongly higher even as the US dollar was about unchanged on the week while the euro continued to weaken. As the situation in Europe unfolded and by the time the end of the week arrived most all risk asset markets (not so much on the energy front) were able to end the week in positive territory and close to the highs of the week. Last week was mostly about the positive coming from Europe coupled with the positives coming from the US...especially after the better than expected US nonfarm payroll number... while the war of words between the west and Iran continued. The action and volatility last week was in all of the oil and commodity markets as well as the global equity markets. Last week was all about market players acting around the cloud of uncertainty that seemed to marginally shrink for some (equities) risk asset markets. Equity bourses were higher even as uncertainty started to decrease by the end of the week. Precious metals increased modestly as the US dollar was marginally higher on the week as cash moved into a variety of risk asset markets but out of the euro. Over the last week the oil complex was mixed with WTI modestly lower and Brent higher as the geopolitical risk premium mostly impacted Brent. The Mar WTI contract decreased about 1.73% or $1.72/bbl. The Mar Brent contract ended the week strongly with a modest gain of 2.8% or $3.12/bbl. The Mar Brent/WTI spread moved higher and broke out of the trading range it has been in for the last month or so as tensions in the Middle East and Nigeria raised the risk of an interruption in supply with the market placing that risk premium almost solely in Brent and not WTI.
On the distillate fuel front the Nymex HO contract increased as distillate fuel inventories decreased marginally and US distillate fuel exports were flat on the week. The spot Nymex HO contract increased by 1.80% or $0.0551/gal. Gasoline prices decreased on the week as gasoline stocks increased strongly (for the second week in a row) and much more that the expectations. The spot Nymex gasoline price decreased by 0.31% or $0.0090/gal this past week.
On the week Nat Gas futures were pummeled once again as the winter has still not arrived in most regions of the US. Nat Gas futures declined by 9.33% or $0.257/mmbtu after recovering modestly the previous week. In the midst of a major surprise in this month's US nonfarm payroll number and a major rally in most risk asset markets Nat Gas futures remained in negative territory throughout the vast majority of Friday's trading session. That said the market has recovered the vast majority of its earlier day losses and is starting today's session in positive territory (so far).
Not much has changed over the last week or so other than the market sentiment has been so bearish and the market so oversold new shorts are reluctant to enter the market at the current level and are likely waiting for an opportunity to sell into a modest rally...something closer to the upside range resistance level of around $2.85/mmbtu. In addition some other shorts are starting to head to the sidelines on concerns that the market might not get to a test of the range lows of around $2.25/mmbtu in the short term.
The weather remains mildly supportive with the eastern half of the US expecting normal temperatures over the next several weeks while the western half of the country is still projected to experience above normal temperatures. The weather forecast is only mildly supportive in that I do not think it is going to result in any major withdrawals from inventory and in fact I am still expecting inventory withdrawals to underperform versus last year and the five year average for most of the rest of February. If so total inventories are likely to be at record high levels at the end of the winter heating season.
On the financial front equity markets around the world ended decidedly higher for the fourth week in a row. Fear of contagion coming from the southern EU member countries... is still a huge concern in the financial markets but did ease a tad as the week progressed (however the sentiment is changing a bit as a Greek deal is still not in place). Global equity values increased as shown in the EMI Global Equity Index table below. The EMI Index gained 2.6% on the week. Over the last week the Index held most of its gains as the euro declined modestly and the US dollar was about unchanged (moves in this direction normally result in modest moves to the downside in equities. Last week the global equity markets were a positive driver for oil and most commodity prices.
The WTI is hovering around the intermediate support level while Brent is in a slowly evolving uptrend. The momentum has changed and continuing to look toppy...especially for WTI. However, I am still keeping my view at neutral (with a bias to the downside for WTI). I am currently expecting intermediate support around the $97.00/bbl area basis WTI and $109.50/bbl level for Brent with resistance around the $104/bbl level for WTI and $113.75/bbl for Brent. I am still keeping my view at neutral and bias at bearish as once again there is not much supportive indications that Nat Gas is likely to embark on a major short covering rally anytime soon. Today's EIA inventory report did over perform and is bearish even though the market is trying to embark on another modest short covering rally. The surplus is still building in inventory versus both last year and the five year average is going to get harder and harder to work off even it gets cold over a major portion of the US and as such for the medium to longer term I am still very skeptical as to whether NG will be able to muster a sustained upside rally over and above a short covering rally.
Currently markets are mostly lower as shown in the following table.

Amritsar, Nov 21 (UNI) The father and son duo of Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president, Sukhbir Badal (MP) today rebuked AICC general secretary Rahul Gandhi on his remark that those responsible for the anti Sikh riots of 1984 should be punished.
" The Congress only thinks about punishment when assembly elections are being held or when a Lok Sabha poll is round the corner", the Chief Minister said while talking to mediapersons here.
The statement by Rahul Gandhi was made just to win the sympathy in the states where assembly plls are being held, the elder Badal said. " The Congress has never been sincere to punish those involved in the riots", he claimed.
The Chief Minister said that the sincerity of the Congress could be judged from the fact that its election manifesto for the Delhi elections was released by none other than Jagdish Tytler, who had been named in various reports instituted to probe the Delhi riots.
Moreover the Congress has given tickets in Delhi to a number of persons who were involved in the 1984 riots, he claimed.
The Chief Minister predicted that the BJP-SAD alliance would win the Delhi polls and Sikh voters would vote against the Congress.
SAD chief Sukhbir Badal too questioned the sincerity of the Congress and the Gandhi family visavis punishing those involved the riots, which were enginered by the Congress party.
Questioned about 'Hindu terrorism", Mr Sukhbir Badal said that his party was against all forms of terror. " We do not support any form of terror and the BJP too is against this", he added.

Iron Man 2 Trailer Is Chock Full Of Heavy Metal

Featuring more armour-sporting foes than you can shake a proton cannon at, the latest trailer for movie tie-in Iron Man 2 shows Iron Man's Russian rival Crimson Dynamo and Ultimo - another armoured-up old bloke.
A greater focus on huge bosses and destruction can only be a good thing for Iron Man 2, although you can never really hope for much from a movie tie-in, if history has taught us anything.
Iron Man 2 The Videogame will be out to coincide with the film this April.

Area Female Athlete: S-M's Pearson produces down the stretch
Kelly Pearson could always produce copious amounts of points.
The Staples-Motley Cardinals junior just didn't have to.
The three-year varsity player led the Cardinals in scoring last season with 340 points (11.3 per game). She added 90 rebounds, 75 assists and 78 steals to a team that advanced to the Section 6-2A final.
This season, however, Pearson was surrounded by shooters. But on Feb. 17 one of those other shooters — Jasmine McGillvray — went down with an injury.
"I asked some of the other girls who have been playing a while to step up their game with Jasmine going down," said Cardinals head coach Arden Beachy. "We are such an unselfish team and whoever is hot on a certain night always seems to get the most shots. Well, Jasmine was the hottest scorer this season so we got her the ball the most. Well we were minus one of our scorers so other people had to step up and Kelly had the ability to do that."
In the Cardinals' 81-38 blowout of Long Prairie-Grey Eagle March 1, Pearson exploded for 28 points. She followed that with 22 points in the Cardinals' 51-34 subsection semifinal victory over Melrose March 3.
"I guess I was just trying to fill (Jasmine's) spot and trying to keep our points going," said Pearson. "I tried to score the ball a little bit more than I have just to pick up the slack.
"My shot has been pretty good lately. I just found my stroke the past few games. I couldn't really shoot before. I think I found it now."
Pearson led the Cardinals with 13 points in their North Subsection 6-2A championship loss to Sauk Centre March 6. She helped S-M to a 23-5 final record.
"She's very athletic and can do a lot of different things," said Beachy. "She can use her left hand and her right hand equally. She's a good ballhandler. She's real shifty the way she sets defenders up and that allows her to turn the corner on a lot of people. She's always been a good shooter able to go into a jump shot off the dribble."
Pearson had to adjust to a new defensive position. The former guarder of guards has been asked to play more of a post defender position. She said it wasn't that hard of an adjustment, but Beachy said she's improved greatly since the start of the season. He's seen a lot of improvement from Pearson and the rest of the team this season.
"She has matured a lot," Beachy said. "Before she would be worrying about calls that weren't right. This year I haven't seen any of that. She's been able to keep an even keel. Whether she's making shots or if they aren't falling you can't tell the difference. If the calls are going against us she stays the same. That's really helped boost her play and her ability to stay focused on the game."
Other notable performances:
Basketball: Tatum Sheley, Pine River-Backus, scored 29 points against Onamia and 32 against Ogilvie.
Lindsay Monson, Pierz, finished with 24 points and 14 rebounds against Albany.
Chelsey Bonsante, Crosby-Ironton, scored 22 points against Roseau and 23 against Pequot Lakes.
Mattie Lueck, Pequot Lakes, scored 19 points against Crookston and 27 against Crosby-Ironton.

Following Hurley's appearance in a revealing outfit barely three months after the birth of her son Damian, women's magazines have been full of advice on how to lose weight after pregnancy. One even cited women who used cosmetic surgery to regain their shape. But psychologists Rose Capdevila, Sally Johnson and Kelly Jordan argue there is more to a woman's experience of giving birth than worries about weight.
In a paper to be presented to the Women and Psychology Conference at Birbeck College in London at the weekend, they state: "The idea that women are overly concerned with weight and body shape is common in our culture. The key point is that body image can be prioritised or displaced by a number of other issues."
In fact, say the trio from University College Northampton - who studied 64 women who have had children in the past three years - there are six ways new mothers think about their experience. In the first three of these "narratives" body image plays a part. There is the "stressed" narrative, where the woman is unhappy about the physical and lifestyle changes. In the "miss my personal space" experience the mother might be happy with her shape but bemoans other lifestyle changes, while in a "family-centred" narrative the woman's dislike for her appearance is compensated by the joy her new child brings.
However there are three narratives where body image plays only a minor role. The psychologists write: "What we have called the 'happy mothers narrative' relates to being positive about every aspect of motherhood and sidelines interest in body image. The 'supportive family narrative' does not stress body image. Here the mother is second to the child, but importance is put on the father's support and the families'."
In the "mother/child narrative", the relationship between mother and child and the mother's family is of central importance.
Some experts fear women are being encouraged to take potentially dangerous short cuts to look good after childbirth. Gillian Fletcher, of the National Childbirth Trust, said: "They see celebrities looking thin within weeks of giving birth and feel that's how they should look. What they forget is celebrities have time and money to see personal trainers." Lisa Evabs is a good example of a new mother for whom body image is just one of the many factors affecting her new role.She appears to fit the "family-centred" type identified by doctors Capdevila and Johnson, in which dissatisfaction with her appearance is more than compensated by the joy her baby brings.
Lisa had long been in the enviable position of never having to worry about her weight. So when she became pregnant with Ollie, her first baby, she had to get used to a lot of extra baggage. All 9lbs 13oz of him.
She said: "It was hard, especially when you are trying clothes on or with your girlfriends and they are all still size 10."
After she gave birth to Ollie, nine months ago, Lisa's weight fell from 103/4 stone to 9 stone, still a stone above her original weight.
She said: "I never feel resentment about what's happened to my body because of Ollie."

He has two expensive homes, a £61,000-a-year job, generous five-figure expenses and a wife who earns good money as a leading lawyer.
So eyebrows were raised on Friday when Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg claimed he was latest victim of the credit crunch.
In an extraordinary outburst, he moaned that he is 'mortgaged up to the gills'.
'Mortgaged to the gills': Nick Clegg and his wife Miriam say they are feeling the pinch and have started shopping at Sainsbury's instead of the more upmarket Ocado
He has taken the painful decision of switching his weekly shop from upmarket Ocado to Sainsbury's in a bid to watch the pennies.
His comments are sure to astonish ordinary hard-working families who are struggling with soaring energy, food and housing bills.
The MP, who was educated at the exclusive £9,000-a-term Westminster School, said he and his family have been hit by the slump in the housing market.
He spoke of the difficulty of finding a new mortgage after his original fixed-rate deal expired last year.
He said: 'Without going into the gory details of our family finances, we are mortgaged up to the gills like a lot of other people. pretty big,' he said.
He also admitted cutting back on heating his home and swopping his Rover for the train and an electric scooter.
'I had a two-year, fixed-rate deal which ran out, and it has been very painful to move on to a different one - like millions of other people.'
Mr Clegg and his wife Miriam, who have two young sons, said that they had tightened their belts because they were feeling the pain of the economic downturn.
He said they had 'gravitated' away from Ocado, which sells Waitrose food online, to Sainsbury's. 'I have to say, the price difference is pretty big,' he said.
He said: 'I hardly drive a car any more. We heat the house less, turn the heating down.'
The Cleggs own a £1.3million house in South-West London and a cottage in a well-heeled suburb of his constituency in Sheffield.
But unlike most folk lucky enough to have two homes, Mr Clegg can claim the cost of one using taxpayer-funded expenses.
In 2006-2007, the last year for which figures are available, he claimed £22,050 of his Additional Costs Allowance towards buying and running the South Yorkshire property.
Mr Clegg conceded that he and his Spanish-born wife, a full-time lawyer, had not suffered the same depths of financial hardship as many other families, but he insisted they are feeling the pinch.
He said: 'I'm much luckier than other people. My wife and I are not really struggling to put food on the family supper table. My wife works and I work, so we have two incomes.
'We are very lucky, but we need every penny of those two incomes. If we do, I can't imagine what it is like for the many millions of British families who aren't as lucky as we are.'
A source close to Mr Clegg insisted he was not claiming financial-hardship, adding: 'He is not saying- 'I feel your pain'.
'He is saying, if times are slightly tougher for him, they must be huge for other people who are less well off.'
But Labour MP John Spellar said: 'Even by London prices, a £1.3million house is expensive. It sounds like he is desperately trying to show that he and his party are in touch with the common man, and failing miserably.'

... in disrepair, tracks rough and timber guide rails broken or falling down. Many of the private buildings look vacant, some quite rundown, contrasted by the abundance of luxury cars. We are theorising that Cuenca could be rich Spaniards visiting town, we noticed a new golf course on the way which had golf estate housing (no doubt expensive). Large birds overhead riding the thermals caught our attention at one point, I saw them again later in the day. At Parador de Turismo ...
Long drive
... out of town was a bit of challenge, as I couldn't go the way the TomTom wanted me to go, but after a bit of detour it all came good and we were eventually on the Autovia and starting a 4 1/2 hour drive, for which I estimated 5 hours. Over the drive we went through a variety of terrains and farming horizons, Olives, olives, olives as far as the eye can see, then open plains, then Grape vines covering the vista, making way later ...

Craig Biggio 'kind of speechless' after Hall of Fame visit
Craig Biggio was "kind of speechless" after completing his pre-induction tour of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
"This is crazy!" Biggio said Friday, sitting in the Plaque Gallery of the hall. "I'm kind of speechless. It's an overwhelming feeling, incredible feeling. I don't know what to say right now."
That's understandable, given it's been less than a month since he was elected to the Hall of Fame. Perhaps it all hasn't quite sunk in yet.
Biggio was elected Jan. 6, joining Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez and John Smoltz, who made the 75 percent threshold by big margins on their first tries to become the first trio of pitchers voted in together by baseball writers.
Biggio received 82.7 percent of the votes, making it on his third attempt after falling two votes shy last year. The wait hardly mattered.
"We're in," said Biggio, glancing at his smiling wife Patty. "We're honored. Last year, hey, we came really close. Hopefully, this year was going to be the year and then it was. I never looked at it as waiting three years. We're just honored and humbled that we're in."
The seven-time All-Star, who played catcher, second base and the outfield, retired in 2007 with 3,060 hits, and his 668 doubles are the major league high for a right-handed batter. He also was hit by pitches 285 times, second all-time by just two to Hughie Jennings. He finished his career with 291 homers, 1,175 RBIs, 1,161 walks, 414 stolen bases and 1,844 runs. Biggio also is the only player in major league history with 600 doubles, 250 homers, 3,000 hits and 400 steals.
He takes pride in playing his entire career with one organization -- the Houston Astros. He competed longer than any other player in franchise history, donning the uniform for 20 seasons. He'll be the first player in franchise history to be inducted when he formally enters the Hall of Fame on July 26.
"It means a lot to me," he said of the Astros cap on his plaque. "I'm wearing it for every guy in the Astros organization. This is for all of us."
A native of Kings Park on New York's Long Island, Biggio said he visited the Hall of Fame as a kid with his family but didn't remember much. Rest assured he won't forget this trip.
Downstairs where the Hall of Fame stores thousands of artifacts that aren't on display, he picked up a bat Babe Ruth used in his heyday in the 1920s, marveling, "I've got to pick that thing up again."
After gazing at a box of signed by former New York Yankees slugger Mickey Mantle, he said joking, "Can you take this out to my car?"
"It's like stepping back in the past," Biggio said. "I just wanted to take it all in and appreciate everything."
Biggio is one of just 11 players in big-league history with at least 3,000 career hits and 1,800 career runs scored. Eight of the other 10 are in the Hall of Fame: Ty Cobb, Hank Aaron, Stan Musial, Tris Speaker, Carl Yastrzemski, Eddie Collins, Willie Mays and Rickey Henderson. The other two on that list are recently retired Yankees star Derek Jeter, who's not yet eligible for the Hall of Fame, and all-time hits leader Pete Rose, who's serving a lifetime ban from baseball.
When he entered the Plaque Gallery at tour's end, Biggio made sure to look at plaques of several of his heroes -- from Yogi Berra, who scouted Biggio when he starred at Seton Hall in New Jersey, to fellow Long Islander Yastrzemski, to Jennings, and the late Cubs great Ernie Banks, who died last week.
"I was just a little kid from Long Island," Biggio said. "Now, I'm sitting in a chair that says Hall of Fame. Amazing."

WASHINGTON—Responding to today's Supreme Court opinion in Shelby County v. Holder, NEA President Dennis Van Roekel said:
"We are dismayed by the Supreme Court's ruling today, which effectively paralyzes one of the key provisions of the Voting Rights Act. Unfortunately, the opinion gives credence to the myth that our nation has achieved racial parity.
"Our biggest fear is not only that we will stop achieving equality, but more importantly, that we will lose ground. For those of us who have devoted our lives to fighting for social justice—especially for those of us who do so from the schoolhouse or the college campus—the thought is especially troubling.
"Despite the many gains we've made, the evidence that voting discrimination persists is plentiful. The right to vote is one of our most fundamental rights as Americans. As educators and leaders, we must work to protect that right by holding lawmakers accountable and ensuring that every single person's voice can be heard through the ballot box. To that end, we urge Congress to move immediately toward re-enacting Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act with a formula that reflects the unfortunate current reality that racial discrimination still exists at the polls and elsewhere in the fabric of many communities."
