Traders say lack of Bank of Canada guidance fuels volatility
By Randall Palmer and Leah Schnurr
OTTAWA (Reuters) - When Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz abandoned a policy of offering forward guidance on interest rates last year, he said telling traders explicitly what's going to happen can boost volatility as it spurs a rush for the exits when things change.
But traders say that so far the policy shift has in fact increased volatility with the central bank blindsiding markets with its surprise rate cut in January, and then catching them off guard again this week with comments by Poloz suggesting it will hold rates steady next month.
"How fast the market is flip-flopping around on interest rates in Canada has been quite remarkable," said Amo Sahota, director at Klarity FX in San Francisco.
When Poloz set out his reasons for eliminating forward guidance in a paper (bit.ly/1LQhJPC), he said one of his goals was "to shift some of the policy uncertainty from the central bank's plate back unto the market's plate".
By offering transparency on the economic risks the central bank is weighing, the idea is that markets will trade off new data and become "two-way and less vulnerable to unusual leveraging and volatile shifts".
Poloz reiterated on Tuesday that it is healthier for the central bank to lay out how it sees the economy and then let markets draw conclusions about rates.
Drawing such conclusions hasn't been easy for traders, partly because of what they perceive as the bank's mixed messages.
Just a week before the oil-price-driven rate cut in January, Deputy Governor Tim Lane said the plunge in crude prices would not have a drastic impact on growth in Canada, a major oil exporter. Continued...

How rich is Paul Stanley?
Paul Stanley Net Worth:
$125 Million
Follow Paul Stanley:
Paul Stanley net worth, wiki & biography:
Paul Stanley, actual name Paul Harvey Eisen, is an American musician, guitarist, song writer, vocalist and painter. He's best called a frontman, co-direct singer and rhythm guitarist of the legendary rock group Kiss. The group was formed in 1973 and obtained visibility at the center of decennium. What brought media's focus and the crowd were elaborative, weird performances that showcased levitating drum kits, fire-breathing, pyrotechnics, blood spitting and smoking guitars. Paul Stanley web worth now amounts to $125 million. Where are these bundles coming from? Because the late-1970s Kiss has introduced 28 records, which offered over 500-thousand copies- no other rock-band has managed to replicate such success. Based On some estimations, during the previous three decades the team spread over 40-million albums in America and still another 60 million records in the remaining part of the world.
Paul Stanley Net Worth $125 Million
Paul was born in Manhattan, in 1952, and raised in Queens. He graduated in the High School of Music & Artwork and not went to university. His professional vocation was not hampered by having less teaching, as is convincingly shown by the present Paul Stanley web worth. Neither did his bodily flaws: it's a bit known truth that Stanley was born using a deformed pinna and can not hear a matter along with his right-ear. Ahead Of The creation of Kiss, Paul used a handful of unsuccessful groups, including Rainbow, Post-War Baby Growth and Uncle Joe. Still an adolescent, Paul joined the team Wicked Lester, were he performed alongside Gene Simmons. For those people who have not heard much about that guy, Gene is another member of bass guitar guitarist, vocalist, Kiss, record producer and song writer. Paul Stanley web worth is virtually tripled by his bundle: Gene possesses assets capital and valued at $300 million. Wicked Lester disbanded after several years, but Stanley and Simmons staied together. Their adverts in papers resulted in Peter Criss and Ace Frehley joining the group. The four men chose to identify themselves Kiss.
The group's debut record premiered in 1974. It highlighted such well-known tracks as "Strutter", "Firehouse", "Cold Jin" and "Black Diamond", but straight back in the day not one of them turned right into a genuine hit. Despite that, the record entered Billboard 200 and within three years was certified Gold by the Recording Industries Association of America. Kiss realized even better commercial success with their DVD record Alive! Throughout the next few years the group released three Platinum records: Rock-and-Roll Over, Destroyer and Love Gun. The very first of them, Destroyer, highlighted the monitor "Beth", the group's best charting hit in the States. Following this break through, Paul Stanley web worth never quit growing.

Ritalin is a prescription medication that was developed to help people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) calm their minds and improve their ability to focus and pay attention to important tasks. Ritalin works wonders for people who have ADHD, and most people who use the drug properly, as prescribed by their doctors for their specific medical condition, do not develop addictions to the medication.
However, people who abuse the drug for recreational purposes can, and do, develop serious addictions to the drug. According to an article published by the Harvard Medical School, about 1 million Americans reported abusing prescription stimulants like Ritalin in 2007. For many of these people, rehab programs will provide meaningful help that can stop the abuse from occurring and allow real healing to begin.
Detox Comes First
Ritalin is a strong and powerful medication that has a chemical structure quite similar to cocaine. People who have ADHD have a depletion in a key chemical used by the brain, and Ritalin is designed to help correct that depletion. People who do not have ADHD, however, flood their brains with unneeded chemicals each time they take Ritalin. The body reacts to this assault by adjusting its chemical processes in a variety of ways. A person who takes Ritalin on a regular basis, and develops an addiction as a result, may have a brain that has been chemically altered to respond to Ritalin, and those alterations must be undone before rehabilitation can move forward.
Detoxification is considered the first step in this process. Here, people are given a safe place in which to allow their bodies to adjust to the lack of Ritalin. They may also have access to therapies that can help them make the adjustment without facing serious physical discomfort. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, some people experience these side effects as they attempt to withdraw from Ritalin:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Irritability
- Fatigue
- Changes in sleep patterns
- Cravings for Ritalin
While it's possible for people to overcome these symptoms on their own at home, it's also possible that doing so could lead to a relapse to Ritalin use. Strong feelings of anxiety and depression are hard for anyone to live with, but they might be particularly hard to endure if people know they can make the symptoms stop by taking drugs.
By checking into a detoxification program, people are ensuring that a relapse won't occur. They won't have access to the drug while enrolled in the program, and they will be encouraged to stay until the process is over. They may also be given medications to help ease the symptoms they feel as the detoxification process moves forward. After a few days have passed, the person will have a system free of Ritalin, and the next phase of healing can begin.
Assessing the Damage
Rehabilitation programs are tailored, providing different therapies to each addict, depending on the damage that has been done and the path the addict took that led to the addiction. In order to identify these issues, most programs will provide addicts with a significant amount of screening tests at the beginning of the rehab process.
Some of these tests are designed to assess the damage the addiction has done to the person's life. In these tests, the addict might be asked about his/her:
- Relationships
- Employment status
- Parenting issues
- Housing situation
- Legal issues
- Debt
Other tests are physical, designed to help determine if there are underlying physical conditions that must also be addressed as the rehab process moves forward. Ritalin abuse can put a significant amount of stress on the heart, according to an article in the journal Current Opinion in Pediatrics, and the problems tend to escalate with increasingly large doses of the drug. People with Ritalin addictions may have heart damage that must be both spotted and treated during rehab. Other physical conditions such as chronic pain might also play a role in addictions, so physical testing is considered a crucial part of the screening process.
Mental health tests also play a vital role in assessments. Addictions and mental illnesses tend to go hand in hand, and they tend to strengthen and support one another. For example, people who abuse Ritalin may feel depressed due to the changes brought about by the addiction. The depression causes the person to take more Ritalin, which makes the depression symptoms worse. By addressing only one of these two factors, the other might grow stronger. A comprehensive program that addresses both issues, by contrast, could provide meaningful help.
Dealing With Trauma
Some people develop addictions to Ritalin due to an inability to deal with stress. For example, some students who feel overwhelmed by the pressure to get good grades on all of their tests may turn to Ritalin in order to help them stay awake and focused on their studies. Instead of understanding how to manage their time and maintain reasonable expectations, these teens turned to medications to help them succeed. It's a remarkably common occurrence.
According to a study in the Journal of American College Health, 16 percent of students polled reported abusing or misusing stimulants, and 96 percent of these students specifically reported using Ritalin. In order to heal, these students will need to learn new techniques for handling the challenges they face. Other people develop addictions due to traumatic experiences such as:
- Family violence
- Pressures of parenting
- Sexual abuse
- Witnessing conflict
These people may need entirely different types of therapy in order to help them resolve these old conflicts and move forward with their lives in a way that is both healthier and more fulfilling.
Therapy Approaches
No medications have been specifically developed to help people overcome an addiction to Ritalin. In other words, no pills can help people to leave their addictions behind. Instead, people will need to use specific therapeutic techniques in order to understand how the addiction developed and how it can be controlled in the future.
Some therapists use a form of therapy that helps addicts to understand how their hidden thoughts and impulses guide them to drug use. In therapy sessions, addicts are asked to explain what they thought about in the moments leading up to drug use, and they're encouraged to come up with new ways of thinking that may not lead to drug use. Someone who believes, "I'm not smart enough to pass this test," might be encouraged to replace that thought with, "I have studied hard, and I feel confident." It might sound simplistic, but it can be revolutionary. Learning to banish negative thoughts could help some people to overcome their reliance on Ritalin.
Other forms of therapy can help people to overcome prior trauma or conflict. Family therapy, in which all members of the family come together to learn more about addiction and talk about the challenges that they all face that has created conflict, could help addicts with trauma to heal. Psychotherapies might also help people who have been victims of violence to deal with their memories and their pain without leaning on drugs, or resorting to depression.
In order to help addicts stay motivated to participate in therapy, some therapists use a technique called contingency management. As a reward for abstinence, and for participating in therapy that promotes abstinence, people are given vouchers for rewards such as dinners out, clothing or movie tickets. This could make participating in therapy seem immediately rewarding and reinforcing, and this might also make people more likely to stay in therapy instead of dropping out and returning to drug use.
Getting Help
Ritalin addictions can be successfully treated in residential programs, where the addicts live in the facility in which they receive care, but they can also be treated in outpatient programs in which the addict continues to live at home. In general, people who have more severe cases of Ritalin addiction are encouraged to enroll in inpatient programs, at least for a while, so they can step away from their habits while they're not surrounded by the temptation to relapse.

Katehi's vague response to UCD community on macing students
Normally this blog focuses on science related to this graduate group or any event surrounding or organized by this graduate group. But, yesterday's event at the Quad on UC Davis campus impacts everyone who is part of the UC Davis community, which includes this graduate group.
Yesterday (Friday, 2011 Nov 18) UC Davis riot police used force to remove a group of students that had set up camp at the center of the Quad a day earlier. Setting up camp falls in line with the Occupy Wall Street movement that started on September 17th this year. The Occupy movement characterizes itself by not having a single issue or a single cause, but rather a plethora of reasons to be disgruntled with the current wealth gap. The OccupyUCD camp that was set up was largely focused on the ever increases fees for UC students. An 81% increase in tuition is scheduled by the University of California for next year. This hefty increase is a culmination of trebling the fees over the last several years. The message UC is sending to it's students is that they have the right of education, but with that comes a debt that will "enslave" them to lending institutions for years if not decades once they finish their degree. Of course, those students with wealthy families are the only ones who can afford enjoying an education without this future burden of debt. To protest against the fee-hikes sounds like a sympathetic cause to pursue. Previously, the UC Regents (with Mark Yudof at the helm {he also tweeted this yesterday: Quotation from an old friend: "Why do the taxpayers have to pay for it? Why can't the government pay for it?"} and {made this statement on Facebook}) scheduled a meeting for last Wednesday, but cancelled after word that protesters might show up. Also, last week, students at UC Berkeley set up camp on campus (as OccupyCal) and just as at UC Davis yesterday, these students were removed by riot police. In a response to the force used by riot police, UC Berkeley Chancellor Birgeneau said that the students did not engage in "non-violent civil disobedience". In other words, linking arms, which the students did, is an act of violence.
The response of UC Berkeley Chancellor was ridiculed including by Stephen Colbert in his program The Colbert Nation.
The events at the Quad yesterday did not go unnoticed in the media, as you can see/read here, here, here, and here. And part of the response came from UC Davis members itself. First off, Chancellor Katehi sent an email (see below) to the UC Davis community explaining why macing students was a necessary act.
November 18, 2011
To UC Davis Campus Community,
I am writing to tell you about events that occurred Friday afternoon at UC Davis relating to a group of protestors who chose to set up an encampment on the quad Thursday as part of a week of peaceful demonstrations on our campus that coincided with many other occupy movements at universities throughout the country.
The group did not respond to requests from administration and campus police to comply with campus rules that exist to protect the health and safety of our campus community. The group was informed in writing this morning that the encampment violated regulations designed to protect the health and safety of students, staff and faculty. The group was further informed that if they did not dismantle the encampment, it would have to be removed.
Following our requests, several of the group chose to dismantle their tents this afternoon and we are grateful for their actions. However a number of protestors refused our warning, offering us no option but to ask the police to assist in their removal. We are saddened to report that during this activity, 10 protestors were arrested and pepper spray was used. We will be reviewing the details of the incident.
We appreciate and strongly defend the rights of all our students, faculty and staff to robust and respectful dialogue as a fundamental tenet of our great academic institution. At the same time, we have a responsibility to our entire campus community, including the parents who have entrusted their students to us, to ensure that all can live, learn and work in a safe and secure environment. We were aware that some of those involved in the recent demonstrations on campus were not members of the UC Davis community and this required us to be even more vigilant about the safety of our students, faculty and staff. We take this responsibility very seriously.
While we have appreciated the peaceful and respectful tone of the demonstrations during the week, the encampment raised serious health and safety concerns, and the resources required to supervise this encampment could not be sustained, especially in these very tight economic times when our resources must support our core academic mission.
We deeply regret that many of the protestors today chose not to work with our campus staff and police to remove the encampment as requested. We are even more saddened by the events that subsequently transpired to facilitate their removal.
We appreciate the substantive dialogue the students have begun here on campus as part of this week.s activities, and we want to offer appropriate opportunities to express opinions, advance the discussion and suggest solutions as part of the time-honored university tradition. We invite our entire campus community to consider the topics related to the occupy movement you would like to discuss and we pledge to work with you to develop a series of discussion forums throughout our campus.
I ask all members of the campus community for their support in ensuring a safe environment for all members of our campus community. We hope you will actively support us in accomplishing this objective.
Linda P.B. Katehi
Although safety and health concerns are brought up, there was no mention of specifically what kind of health concerns these might have been. The only mention of safety concerns was that people from outside the UC community were part of the encampment. Neither was there any mention of what attempts were made to solve the problem in a non-riot police manner (unless a 3 minute warning counts). An invite for discussion on issues related to the Occupy movement seem a little late, as several OccopyDavis initiatives have already taken place.
Finally, in an open letter Professor Nathan Brown (UCD English faculty) asked Chancellor Katehi to step down after the macing incident that took place yesterday, as you can read below.
18 November 2011
Open Letter to Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi
Linda P.B. Katehi,
I am a junior faculty member at UC Davis. I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of English, and I teach in the Program in Critical Theory and in Science & Technology Studies. I have a strong record of research, teaching, and service. I am currently a Board Member of the Davis Faculty Association. I have also taken an active role in supporting the student movement to defend public education on our campus and throughout the UC system. In a word: I am the sort of young faculty member, like many of my colleagues, this campus needs. I am an asset to the University of California at Davis.
You are not.
I write to you and to my colleagues for three reasons:
1) to express my outrage at the police brutality which occurred against students engaged in peaceful protest on the UC Davis campus today
2) to hold you accountable for this police brutality
3) to demand your immediate resignation
Today you ordered police onto our campus to clear student protesters from the quad. These were protesters who participated in a rally speaking out against tuition increases and police brutality on UC campuses on Tuesday—a rally that I organized, and which was endorsed by the Davis Faculty Association. These students attended that rally in response to a call for solidarity from students and faculty who were bludgeoned with batons,hospitalized, and arrested at UC Berkeley last week. In the highest tradition of non-violent civil disobedience, those protesters had linked arms and held their ground in defense of tents they set up beside Sproul Hall. In a gesture of solidarity with those students and faculty, and in solidarity with the national Occupy movement, students at UC Davis set up tents on the main quad. When you ordered police outfitted with riot helmets, brandishing batons and teargas guns to remove their tents today, those students sat down on the ground in a circle and linked arms to protect them.
Without any provocation whatsoever, other than the bodies of these students sitting where they were on the ground, with their arms linked, police pepper-sprayed students. Students remained on the ground, now writhing in pain, with their arms linked.
What happened next?
Police used batons to try to push the students apart. Those they could separate, they arrested, kneeling on their bodies and pushing their heads into the ground. Those they could not separate, they pepper-sprayed directly in the face, holding these students as they did so. When students covered their eyes with their clothing, police forced open their mouths and pepper-sprayed down their throats. Several of these students were hospitalized. Others are seriously injured. One of them, forty-five minutes after being pepper-sprayed down his throat, was still coughing up blood.
This is what happened. You are responsible for it.
You are responsible for it because this is what happens when UC Chancellors order police onto our campuses to disperse peaceful protesters through the use of force: students get hurt. Faculty get hurt. One of the most inspiring things (inspiring for those of us who care about students who assert their rights to free speech and peaceful assembly) about the demonstration in Berkeley on November 9 is that UC Berkeley faculty stood together with students, their arms linked together. Associate Professor of English Celeste Langan was grabbed by her hair, thrown on the ground, and arrested. Associate Professor Geoffrey O'Brien was injured by baton blows. Professor Robert Hass, former Poet Laureate of the United States, National Book Award and Pulitzer Prize winner, was also struck with a baton. These faculty stood together with students in solidarity, and they too were beaten and arrested by the police. In writing this letter, I stand together with those faculty and with the students they supported.
One week after this happened at UC Berkeley, you ordered police to clear tents from the quad at UC Davis. When students responded in the same way—linking arms and holding their ground—police also responded in the same way: with violent force. The fact is: the administration of UC campuses systematically uses police brutality to terrorize students and faculty, to crush political dissent on our campuses, and to suppress free speech and peaceful assembly. Many people know this. Many more people are learning it very quickly.
You are responsible for the police violence directed against students on the UC Davis quad on November 18, 2011. As I said, I am writing to hold you responsible and to demand your immediate resignation on these grounds.
On Wednesday November 16, you issued a letter by email to the campus community. In this letter, you discussed a hate crime which occurred at UC Davis on Sunday November 13. In this letter, you express concern about the safety of our students. You write, "it is particularly disturbing that such an act of intolerance should occur at a time when the campus community is working to create a safe and inviting space for all our students." You write, "while these are turbulent economic times, as a campus community, we must all be committed to a safe, welcoming environment that advances our efforts to diversity and excellence at UC Davis."
I will leave it to my colleagues and every reader of this letter to decide what poses a greater threat to "a safe and inviting space for all our students" or "a safe, welcoming environment" at UC Davis: 1) Setting up tents on the quad in solidarity with faculty and students brutalized by police at UC Berkeley? or 2) Sending in riot police to disperse students with batons, pepper-spray, and tear-gas guns, while those students sit peacefully on the ground with their arms linked? Is this what you have in mind when you refer to creating "a safe and inviting space?" Is this what you have in mind when you express commitment to "a safe, welcoming environment?"
I am writing to tell you in no uncertain terms that there must be space for protest on our campus. There must be space for political dissent on our campus. There must be space for civil disobedience on our campus. There must be space for students to assert their right to decide on the form of their protest, their dissent, and their civil disobedience—including the simple act of setting up tents in solidarity with other students who have done so. There must be space for protest and dissent, especially, when the object of protest and dissent is police brutality itself. You may not order police to forcefully disperse student protesters peacefully protesting police brutality. You may not do so. It is not an option available to you as the Chancellor of a UC campus. That is why I am calling for your immediate resignation.
Your words express concern for the safety of our students. Your actions express no concern whatsoever for the safety of our students. I deduce from this discrepancy that you are not, in fact, concerned about the safety of our students. Your actions directly threaten the safety of our students. And I want you to know that this is clear. It is clear to anyone who reads your campus emails concerning our "Principles of Community" and who also takes the time to inform themselves about your actions. You should bear in mind that when you send emails to the UC Davis community, you address a body of faculty and students who are well trained to see through rhetoric that evinces care for students while implicitly threatening them. I see through your rhetoric very clearly. You also write to a campus community that knows how to speak truth to power. That is what I am doing.
I call for your resignation because you are unfit to do your job. You are unfit to ensure the safety of students at UC Davis. In fact: you are the primary threat to the safety of students at UC Davis. As such, I call upon you to resign immediately.
Nathan Brown
Assistant Professor
Department of English
Program in Critical Theory
University of California at Davis
Let's hope that civility and restrained use of force comes back to UC Davis soon, as well as open dialogue and the capacity to protest peacefully. No one benefits from what happened yesterday or last week at Berkeley or what didn't happen this week (the cancelled UC Regents meeting). UC and UC Davis can and should do better.
Associated Press article.
Update 2:
Although the 81% fee hike does not affect graduate students directly, it does affect us indirectly. Our PIs are paying our tuition fees, so they have to cough up the extra money from their grants. Grants are increasingly hard to obtain because of more researchers applying for grants that are not growing, resulting in percentage-wise less grants application being approved.
Update 3:
Here you can sign a petition in support of the open letter of professor Nathan Brown (this blog does not endorse this petition, merely informing the reader of its existence).
November 19, 2011 at 12:25 pm
An excellent article. Thank you.
November 19, 2011 at 1:19 pm
Thanks for posting Nathan's letter, he certain expresses some pretty strong sentiments. Not sure Katehi should immediately resign, but she certainly owes all students a real apology and a promise that is kind of brutality will not happen again on our campus. Looks like CPGSA will be alot more interesting this year than we had anticipated…
November 19, 2011 at 1:46 pm
Completely agree about the non-apology.
November 19, 2011 at 1:29 pm
@Gordon – I agree with both points you bring up. Her response as posted did not really help diffuse the situation and I think it might only result in more (and larger) protests. So far for trying to safe money (as she points out in her letter) by breaking up the small encampment.
November 19, 2011 at 1:43 pm
I have written a letter to the Chancellor and copied the Grad Assistant to the Chancellor, expressing my opinion. I don't want her to resign over this, she is a good Chancellor – however, the situation should not have happened as it has and they really need to make sure it doesn't happen ever again. Don't know how, but seriously, never again.

* Old street scene photos tell us a lot about the way things used to be, and Shorpy, the old photo blog, is always good for a vintage street scene, such as this 1943 shot of a rainy day in Times Square by John Vachon. We immediately noticed the Checkers with their funky art deco grilles and landaulet bodies lined up along the street. Only one such example of that style of Checker remains in existence today.
* Spotted on Jesse's blog, we had to find out more about the Citroën U55 Currus Cityrama from the film Zazie dans le métro. It seems Citroën built multiples of these stacked buses for sightseers and tourists in paris in the late 1950s and early 1960s, who didn't mind being ushered about in such a typically post-war French vehicle.
* Looking like a homebrew version of the Fast and the Furious with more muscle cars, Clutch the movie (as opposed to Clutch the band, from which the movie producers seem to have nabbed their logo) seems to be in post production and headed for a release this summer. We'll try to get our hands on a copy to see if it's any good. (via)
* I need to brush up on my Japanese (okay, I need to actually learn a bit of Japanese) because the Nissan Heritage Collection just put up a new website. (via)
* And finally, not to subject you to too many Citroën-related links this week, but Garage Journal member lucajack2cv posted some incredible shots of the rebuild of his Citroën-housing garage, which is located in northern Italy, and the photos are worth seeing, if only to inspire dreams of your own old Europe-inspired garage.

|read the responses to Building a chevy 350,need some advice by v8s10. elsewhere in this column for a basic engine
Help building a 350
I'm new to all of these, so try and bear with me. I have a 350 small block that I want to rebuild, and drop into my 61 chevy shortbed. I want performance out of my 350, but I'm shooting for the best gas mileage to horsepower rating, i.e. I'd like 20 MPG, but will settle for a little less for more performance. I'm starting with the bottom end and I'm going to build the whole thing up. I'd like it to accomodate regular gas, but I'll run it off of super-unleaded only. I'd -prefer- to avoid having to use AV fuel or additives, but am willing to, depending on the performance changes. I'd also like my engine compatable with Nitrous. I know this is a lot to ask, but Can anyone out there help me with this? I'm doing as much research as I can, but I figured this would be the best place to come to for information from people who really know what they are doing. So, if your willing to help me, and give the specs or what sort equipment I need to get, I would greatly appreciate the help. Even a push in the right direction would be helpful. Thanks in advance to everyone who's going to help me.

I've only been doing animation for a year, but I think this piece has better lighting, more emotion, and a nice story. Like I've said, only one year of animation experience, so take my words with a grain of salt.

There's really not much difference between giving Pac Man the (slight) attributes of a pumpkin, than giving these color blocks those of razor blades, is there? Maybe if I used the golden arches, this would be safe from legal scrutiny? Pfff.
God, you're kidding, right?
Not that I think this was a great design, but if this isn't in the realm of parody, HOW DID THE CONSUMERISM DERBY HAPPEN???? For that matter, you'd think there'd be a little more worry about the fact that we're still selling a design with an identical concept and title to another popular $10 shirt a day site.

Re: Quit Hoping - Love Is Dead
Fix the wording, I'll vote for it and buy it.
Re: Quit the Pack
Since my other entry is generating it's own love, I thought I'd force some love into this one. C'mon, smokers, wouldn't you love a healthy, flowery cigarette? Those damn militant non-smokers wouldn't know what hit 'em!
What? You're one of those non-smokers? Well, then, wouldn't you love cigarettes to say "I quit, I'm no longer going to be deadly, I am going to be floral and surround myself with bunnies"?*
*No bunnies are actually included in this design, though I'd considered.
Re: Know When to Fold
Beefcoat, I won't buy this shirt -- but I would buy decks of cards.
Re: Plan B
So... thanks for the support and critiques! To elaborate a bit...
Yes, I did use clip art and text. I said I would (...and you all thought I was kidding!). It just works into the theme this week. Here's my rationale:
The theme is about quitting, and my shirt is about moving on to Plan B. My personal Plan A of submitting quality artwork entries wasn't working, so I quit and went on to Plan B. Since I was losing to clipart and text, I figured, "if you can't beat them, join them - and then beat them at their own game." ;) The concept is also mocking the typical, rockstar-esque dream, so I wanted to use the typical rockstar-esque design. Hand drawn art looked too freelance-ish, so I went for cookie cutter art. It was much faster AND I got to work on other artwork.
All in all... I was just going with the theme. ;)
...and I had no idea there was a contraceptive called Plan B. Although, even if I did, I would have done this anyway. To me, and many people on most occasions, Plan B usually means the alternate plan. I can see how recent events would make people think of the contraceptive though. Just a fun, twisted aspect of the design I guess. =D
Great, unfortunately can't se what it is from the thumbprint

Re: Quilter-Quitter
It might be more appropriate if that wasn't embroidery. Quilting is when you sew through a top layer, batting and a bottom later, usually the top being patchwork. Those diagonal stitches are embroidery

Re: Double Negative- I Quit Quitting Smoking

discodancing wrote:You know, I honestly don't care if you believe me or not. I wasn't around.
The shirt was a commentary on people getting frustrated and threatening to leave. When I read the description of this week's topic, I thought it fit. That's it. You're welcome to believe I was secretly developing some alternative master plan. I guess I like the idea of that - makes the design so much sinister and mischievous...
blame it on the puffs....
I never thought it was meant with mean intent. No one with your whimsically goofy sense of humor would be that snide. I didn't vote for it 'cause I couldn't see myself wearing it, but I'm sad that woot booted it for a stupid and uninformed reason.
And the puffs have been growing on me, I wouldn't mind seeing another puff shirt or at least antoher segment of the puffaluff story. ;)

Great job conveying gradients via the subtle shades of brown. And their position around the edges gives it a nice, three-dimensional "buldge" effect.

Florida head coach Will Muschamp confirmed via the SEC teleconference that Moore sustained a "compound fracture of the elbow" and he will miss the rest of the season.
For Florida, it is the third offensive tackle out for this game. Chaz Green was supposed to start the season at right tackle and a labrum injury has forced him to miss the entire season. Starting left tackle D.J. Humphries injured his MCL against Missouri and will miss a few games including Saturday. Now, Moore has a scooter accident and is out for the year.
There is no word yet on how the Gators will manage the offensive line on short notice with the injury happening after practice on Tuesday, but starting left guard Max Garcia has taken quite a few snaps at left tackle already this season and he is someone they have planned to use in case of emergency at that spot all year.
That leaves backups junior Ian Silberman, senior Kyle Koehne, and sophomore Trip Thurman to fill in up front and Koehne could play guard or tackle, while Silberman and Thurman are likely guards at this point.
****Note: Muschamp said in the teleconference that Garcia would indeed slide to right guard and that Kyle Koehne may start with a battle from Ian Silberman at guard. Jonotthan Harrison will remain at center, Jon Halapio at right guard , and Trenton brown at right tackle.
They could also elect to burn the redshirt of freshman Octavius Jackson who has been the only true freshman they have talked about playing along the offensive line this year for various reasons including injury. Jackson would play tackle.
The three missing tackles just compounds all of the injuries on this team that make it the most injury riddled season in memory for this writer.
Starting quarterback Jeff Driskel is out for the year from a week three broken leg. Starting running back Matt Jones tore his ACL in the first series of the LSU game. Starting kick returner and best deep threat at receiver Andre Debose has missed the entire year to a preseason ACL tear.
Florida's best player on the defensive side of the ball in Dominique Easley tore his ACL leading up to the LSU game and he is out for the entire year. Freshman linebacker Matt Rolin tore his ACL in preseason drills and is also out for the year.
There are other various players that have missed or are missing multiple games with injury as well. It is truly as strange as I have ever seen it on the injury front.

Hey fella's, I'm sure a few of you guys remember me. I just returned this past week from deployment. Spent the last 6 months floating around the Med, and the last 2 years stationed up in Norfolk. Got some good news while I was out there and in September I get to return back to NAS Jax for at least 3 years. Only have 7 years till retirement, so hopefully I can spend them down here in Jax. I was stationed here for 9 years over at Mayport before getting deported up to Norfolk.
I got to hunt a bit down here while I was in Norfolk, when I came down to visit the wife. Looking forward to hitting it hard next year since I missed all of last season. Already picked up a new boat for the area, a MoMarsh Fatboy DP with a 7hp Stumpjumper and I still have my Hybrid duck boat too.
Hope to see some of you guys around the area. Don't worry, I don't need no help finding places to go...still know the state rather well on hunting spots.

Everyone thought it wouldn't last. She's the heiress to the Quality Street empire who grew up in a £1.4m home in Bath. He's a tattooed rapper who grew up on a Hackney council estate.
But now Millie Mackintosh, 23, and Professor Green, 29, have announced their engagement. The delighted Made in Chelsea star tweeted a photo of her engagement ring saying, "if I could scream loud enough for the whole world to hear I would." Green tweeted, "someone's gonna have to break the news to Jessica Alba and Eva Mendez."
The unlikely couple began dating in December 2011, after Green saw Mackintosh's picture on the cover of FHM and asked his publicist to put him in touch – so love at first site then. From the start, cynics dismissed their romance as a publicity stunt. Green, real name Stephen Manderson, said: "Millie and I are from different places. It doesn't make that much difference to us…You're effectively calling me a commoner – which I am, common as muck. But I'm doing all right for myself, and I'm well-mannered, I'm courteous."
Mackintosh's parents Nigel and Georgina have met Green and she says, "they thought he seemed kind and a great guy". Aww.
So with that in mind, here are some more posh girls and unlikely beaux.
Kate Rothschild and Jay Electronica
The heir to the Rothschild banking fortune split from husband millionaire financier Ben Goldsmith in June last year when it was revealed that another man had come between them. That man is bad-boy rapper Jay Electronica. The musician, real name Timothy Elpadro Thedford, grew up in the Magnolia Projects of New Orleans, where the crime rate is high. He met mother of three Rothschild through the record label she runs, Roundtable records. She said, "he saved my life in many ways." Goldsmith found a series of text messages between the rapper and his wife. But really he should've guessed. The lyrics of his song Call of Duty are, "brunch with the Rothschilds, dinner with the Carters/Jay Elec stop the press, critical-est artist."
Zara Phillips and Mike Tindall
The Queen's granddaughter met her husband rugby player Mike Tindall in a Sydney bar when he was drowning his sorrows, trying to ease the pain of being dropped from the England squad before the semi finals. There aren't any other royals dating sportsmen, let alone marrying them. Tindall claims it was his "pure charm" that won the royal's heart. It has been a rocky relationship, at least in 2011 when the sportsman was filmed on CCTV cavorting with an old flame in a bar. They had a low key wedding in Edinburgh last year, shortly after the other big royal wedding of Kate and Wills. The royal family all turned up and on the groom's side were his parents Linda and Phil and Coronation Street actress Katherine Kelly. Phillips is believed to have set a royal precedent by keeping her maiden name.
Lady Mary Charteris and Robbie Furze
A Tatler party pages regular, the model Lady Mary Charteris is best friends with the aristocracy. Her father is the Earl of Wemyss, who has a country pile in Gloucestershire. But these days Lady Mary has decamped to Bethnal Green where she lives with her new husband, Londoner Robbie Furze, one half of electronic rock duo The Big Pink. She calls herself Lady Mary Furze and while not much is known about her husband she says he is the coolest person she knows — an opinion unlikely to be shared by the heckling fan he punched during a gig in Atlanta two years ago. "I thought, 'Well, it's either my fist or my guitar', and I thought 'Well, I don't wanna damage my guitar'," was his explanation.
Cara Delevingne and Jake Bugg
These two young things hit it off at a party earlier this year. Now people are asking whether Delevingne, who grew up in Belgravia, has been hit by the love Bugg? A model and singer isn't the unlikeliest of combinations but these two are from different backgrounds. Delevingne's mother, Pandora is a personal shopper for Selfridges who has helped dress the Duchess of Cambridge. So sort of a similar job to Bugg's mother, a saleswoman from a council estate in Nottingham. Delevingne's father Charles made his money in property, and demonstrated his skills when he sold the family's Grade II-listed Belgravia house for £10.5 million during the worst of the credit crunch. Bugg's father is a male nurse. Delevingne and Bugg seem to be getting on well. But he'd better watch out. If he puts a foot wrong her self proclaimed "wifey", Rita Ora will be after him.Reuse content

Does Harry Styles Want Kendall Jenner to Meet His Family?
While both in England for London's Fashion Week, Harry Styles reportedly wanted Kendall Jenner to head to his hometown and meet his family, one British tabloid is saying.
The One Direction cutie, who recently saved a fan from the paparazzi, has supposedly met the Kardashian clan a handful of times, even taking the time to get to know Jenner's dad Bruce.
"Harry has spent a lot of time in the U.S. with Kendall since Christmas so he feels like he knows her family well," a source told the Daily Star. "He's even bonded with her dad Bruce over a round of golf."
"Now he feels like it's time for Kendall to meet all of his family, and she's just as keen as him," the insider added.
The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star, who just arrived home last night (Feb. 18) from her UK trip, was in London to walk the runways as a model.
And while she was across the pond, the Daily Star source insisted that Styles wanted to introduce Jenner to his fam.
"Harry wants to take her to his hometown in Cheshire to meet his mum Anne, dad Des and sister Gemma," the source claimed.
The Daily Star's report is a complete 360 from their recent claims that Styles was flirting with Sky Ferreira just three days ago.
So, did the meeting happen? While we don't know for sure, let's just hope that the Styles family happened to miss seeing her recent topless photo in W magazine. That might just be too much, too soon.

A look forward into the 2013:
- Facebook (FB): Raise your hand if you have never heard of Facebook. Exactly. The company's worldwide reach is stunning: now more than 1 billion users and 500 million on mobile. I believe the real investment belongs in mobile advertising as Facebook continues to grow exponentially. It's amazing that the company made $0 in 2011 in mobile advertising. I believe in 2012 mobile revenue will exceed $500 million and should continue to grow strongly into 2013. Facebook is my top pick for 2013.
- Yahoo (YHOO): Another company looking to grow through display advertising. The company recently hired Marissa Mayer from Google (GOOG), and I believe the stock is looking to finally breakout after trading in the sub-$20 price range in recent years. As a frequent Yahoo user, I've witnessed changes that have been happening quickly. I think the new mail platform is much easier and smoother than its previous version. The Yahoo homepage, which is not yet fully functional, looks to be much improved. As a turnaround play, I don't see a better company.
- Tesla Motors (TSLA): I believe this is a bit more speculative, but provides access to an industry with a new look and feel that hasn't changed in over a century. The automobile industry may have finally hit some competition. Tesla is a luxury-electric vehicle company that sells a beautiful sedan from Silicon Valley. Reservations for the vehicle are approaching their 20,000 unit estimate for 2013. In fact, the company may need to raise their numbers, as the vehicle was recently named Motor Trend's car of the year.
- Sodastream (SODA): Continuing the theme of changing industry standards, Sodastream is the first company to penetrate the home carbonation market in the US. The company's sales continue to grow worldwide with the US market consisting of about 33% of their revenues. Using the razor blade model, the company looks to bring retailers consumers for repeat business, which is something that retailers cherish. The company's Q4 earnings look to be stellar, in my opinion, as many retailers reported sellouts of the company's machines during the holiday season.
- Zillow (Z): With the housing market looking stronger, I believe this company should gain traction in the real estate market. I find this is a great tool for consumers and agents to use when looking to buy or sell homes across the US. Although monetization has been slow, I expect to see this company gain greater traction in 2013.

You've Heard Lance Armstrong's Confession – How Do You Feel About Him Now? [POLL]
Lance spilled all with Oprah in a two part series. It was pretty amazing. The arrogance, outright lying - the pompous attitude. And Lance was pretty bad on the show too! (drum hit) . Seriously though, how do you feel about him now? A quick poll is in order!
Lance Armstrong Is Still My Hero [AUDIO]
Today on The Sean and Richie Show, Sean told us about Lance Armstrong being stripped of his 7 Tour De France titles. I don't know if he cheated or not, if I had to guess I would say he did something but they still haven't proven it. The beauty is EVERYONE was cheating. So I ask if EVERYONE is cheating is ANYONE really cheating?

Meric Related Links USF - MSU box score Sign Up For Free Email Updates TAMPA, Fla. (March 10, 2007) The University of South Florida baseball team (12-6) lost 7-5 to Michigan State (5-5) Saturday night at Red McEwen Field, dropping the Bulls' sixth game of the season. USF tallied a run in the first inning and scored before the opponent for the fifth-consecutive contest, dating back to the second game of the Central Michigan double-header on March 4. Senior Danny Otero picked up his third loss of the season, throwing four strikeouts in 6.0 innings pitched. Junior James Rowe also notched four strikeouts in his 2.0 innings and redshirt freshman Daryl Lewis struck out two in one inning of work. Junior Ty Taborelli was 2-for-3 with one run scored while four other Bulls had one hit apiece. To open the bottom of the first, junior Walter Diaz drew a walk and advanced to second on a base hit from Taborelli. Sophomore Addison Maruszak moved the runners into scoring position with a sacrifice bunt, just in time for junior Dexter Butler to send a sacrifice fly to center field, scoring Diaz. Michigan State scored four runs in the next two innings to take the 4-1 lead, but Diaz scored again in the third, to cut the Spartan lead to two. The scoreless fourth inning was followed by Michigan State notching one run in the fifth and a pair in the seventh, to take the 7-2 lead. In the bottom of the seventh, senior Nick Cardieri singled up the middle, then scored as freshman outfielder Ryan Soares doubled to left field, earning his third RBI of the season, and bringing the score within four, 7-3. In the bottom of the eighth, Taborelli walked, then Butler registered a single to left field, but the Spartans misplayed the ball, allowing Taborelli to score for the Bulls. USF shut out MSU in the top of the ninth, and entered the last half inning trailing by three. Junior Joey Angelberger rocketed a solo home run over the left field fence, his third of the season, to bring the Bulls within two. Diaz was then hit by a pitch and Taborelli walked to put the tying run on base, but the Bulls couldn't rally the hits in the bottom of the inning, dropping the sixth game of the season, 7-5. Angelberger's bomb was the Bulls' second consecutive ninth-inning home run in the past two games, and the third-straight game for USF to hit a homer. USF next plays the University of Miami (Ohio) on Tuesday, March 13. The Bulls and RedHawks meet at 6 p.m. on Red McEwen Field.

Is there any tutorial how to put shortcodes and custom post types into plugin?
Hi there,
This is a quick how to
- Create a directory and name it anything you wish ( my-shortcodes-and-cpt-plugin )
- Create an index.php inside it and put this content in it:
<?php /* Plugin Name: Your Plugin Name Description: Your Descriptions Version: 1.0 Author: Myself */ include('shortcodes.php'); include('post-types.php'); ?>
- Then create both of the included files (shortcodes.php and post-types.php) and in shortcodes.php put your shortcodes codes, and in post-types.php enter your post types codes.
- Enqueue your CSS and JS files in your PHP files.
- Troubleshoot the probable issues.
Actually it's not really different with what you are doing currently in your theme. You are just moving your codes into a plugin.
Just make sure that your theme will work even if your plugin is not activated.
Hope this helps you
imangm saidThank you man for your help & time i really appreciate that
Hi there, This is a quick how to
I will try as you told me .
Yes it's really help me, now it works everything is fine, and one more thing, when i publish theme do i need to put my "shortcode" plugin into theme files or separate plugin from theme, and do i need to put shortcode css and js files into plugin folder.
I'm happy that it helped You should put the CSS and JS files in both plugin and theme and then enqueue them. Actually you should put some CSS files to make your plugin just works with other themes (So minimal) and then make your theme specific CSS codes in the theme itself.
And the best way to bundle your plugin into your theme, is to activate it with TGM plugin. This way your plugin will install almost automatically once a client install your theme and users will be able to upgrade to your latest version easily.
imangm saidThanks a lot
Hi, I'm happy that it helped You should put the CSS and JS files in both plugin and theme and then enqueue them…
