text: The Inbetweeners 2: Jay, Will, Simon and Neil are up to their old tricks in first trailer They might be older, but the gang certainly haven't grown up... Comments Written By Ellie Walker-Arnott 2:08 PM, 09 May 2014 The Inbetweeners are back. In a first (and frustratingly short) glimpse at the upcoming Inbetweeners movie sequel, Jay, Will, Simon and Neil are Down Under. And they are up to their old tricks. We actually get to see very little of the rude and crude foursome in the minute-long clip - it's mainly made up of Aborigines around a bonfire - but those last few seconds give us a fairly accurate feel for what the gang will be getting up to while they backpack around Oz. Just wait for their Australian take on this classic Inbetweeners quote... The Inbetweeners Movie 2 stars Simon Bird, Joe Thomas, Blake Harrison and James Buckley.

inconvenient history
July 11, 2007 Leave a comment
Tom Woods, author of The Politically Incorrect Guide to American History, has written another volume of corrective American history. I look forward to reading it. Sounds like he was able to go into some things in greater depth.
He writes about it at LRC.
What I find interesting about Woods's approach is that he is not doing revision, technically speaking.
Revisionism is reinvestigation of the Establishment's pro-state (and usually pro-war) narrative.
What Woods does, it seems to me, is address the rift between that which is generally accepted by history scholars and that which is taught, repeated, and reinforced by schools, the mainstream media, and popular culture more generally.
(See, for example, this recent bit of ahistorical propaganda from Newsweek: "China today resembles nothing so much as the United States a century ago, when robber barons, gangsterism and raw capitalism held sway. Now as then, powerful vested interests are profiting from murky regulations, shoddy enforcement, rampant corruption and a lack of consumer awareness.")
Now some of Woods's positions are still at odds with Establishment historians, such as his Austrian School approach to the Great Depression. This is because any analysis of economic history will require more than just facts; it will require theory to interpret the cause and effect behind those facts. But most of what he focuses on are generally accepted facts among historians that are extremely inconvenient to the historical narrative most of us have been taught.
One of the absurd criticisms of his Politically Incorrect Guide was the claim that he was pretending controversy where there wasn't any. To paraphrase: What professional historian would disagree that the Civil War was caused, in part, by a complex combinations of factors, including economic concerns other than the question of slavery?!
Well, the answer is probably that no respectable historian would deny a complex array of factors behind any big event in history. But that argument is a straw man. Woods wasn't saying that his claims would be considered controversial among historians; he was saying that they would be considered controversial among almost everyone else, and he was clearly correct, as proven by all the fallout from both the old Left Establishment and the neocons. The history we all think we know is not the history that historians know, and it's that very discrepancy that Woods addresses in his books.
Here's Tom's reaction to this post:
By and large I think that's what I'm doing, though while reading it I think you'll find that in some cases I'm doing both the things you describe here. The Establishment's pro-state narrative is extremely shaken, I think, by the time the book ends.
Now I'm even more anxious to receive my copy of the book.

You've got to be nuts
Page Tools
Rob Macklin discovers in the gym that he is no Lance Armstrong.
Why is it that we men feel as though we have to try to impress girls at the gym, regardless of our physical condition?
I have started going to the gym again recently despite a long absence, and succumbed, to my great detriment, to this primal courtship ritual.
I've seen this girl in the gym the past couple of times and she's really fit. The last time I hit the bikes, looking forward to my leisurely 20 minute program, she walked in and started pounding away at a furious rate on the step machine behind me. Quite logically, I increased the level on my machine to show her the immense virility of the male specimen in front of her. Lance Armstrong may have won the Tour de France six times with only one nut, I think to myself, so with the mangos I've got under the bonnet, 20 minutes of cycling should be a cinch.
Three minutes in, the gut with legs is struggling big time and rapidly turning into a man-sized tomato. Every atom in my body is telling me to simply stop this idiocy. But there is a part of my brain that thinks that if I do the 20 minutes perhaps step-machine queen will be so impressed she'll simply peel off her clothing and ravish me.
The minutes tick by. Whoever said time is merely a mental construct has never been to the gym. After five minutes I'm in complete agony as I have set the level on the machine that only drug-crazed Olympians would choose.
After about 10 minutes I'm starting to hallucinate and I've got so much sodium pouring out of my body I imagine wild animals will soon be licking my face to get their mineral salts. With, I think, about 13 minutes down I've lost all feeling below the waist. My legs are pure jelly, the bones have dissolved.
Finally, months later it seems, I cross the 20 minute line. Like a Tour de France stage winner I take my hands off the handlebars, raise myself upright, look to the heavens and thank the Lord Jesus. For one brief moment there, at the 19-minute mark, I saw a strong white light at the end of a tunnel. It looked so beautiful.
After a few moments of contemplation and a minor coughing fit I extract myself from the saddle and try to make my way to the water cooler, all the while trying to look cool and in control. Trouble is I need to hold onto each piece of equipment to keep from falling down.
Oh the water, the sweet, sweet water. The Solo man would have been proud of me. I quickly gulp a litre or nine of freezing water and think that perhaps this is what it feels like to have a stroke.
Meanwhile the step-machine queen is pounding away behind me. I smile weakly at her and pull the door into my face as I try to get the hell out of there. But my legs have another idea. They have started to wiggle, shake and spasm uncontrollably.
I'm not sure how I got back home - it's all a bit blurry - but I do have a vague memory of smashing my knee into the side of my bed as I tried to crawl up into it from the floor. Women are so demanding.

He looks like he could be purebred to me. There can be a lot of variation even with a breed, especially in a breed so widely popular. I've seen Labs with brown/pink noses before, and I once knew somebody who had a Lab that looked like an awful lot like him.
Do you have any other pictures? Most helpful ones would include profile view of his head and a side view of his entire body.

June 27, 2011 By Robert Bell
"Can you have an Intelligent Community full of dumb people?" That bracing question was once posed by the manager of a city-owned electric utility who had successfully deployed cable and Internet services to his customers in competition with the local cable franchise.
"You better hope so," he said in answer to his own question. "Because you can make the network as smart as you like, but the people don't change."
I loved his comment. I was sitting in the audience and knew he was poking fun at me, because I was one of the founders of the Intelligent Community Forum.
I also heartily disagreed.
I think people do change. In fact, if they don't, it doesn't matter how smart your systems are. You won't achieve your goal, whether it is greater economic prosperity, the solution to social challenges or greater sustainability.
In our decade-long study of innovative communities, we have learned a few important lessons. In every case, Intelligent Communities engage in intensive collaboration among organizations, government and citizens to create change. They also have leaders who know how to develop and sell an ambitious vision and how to create the collaboration needed to see it through.
The leadership, the vision and the collaboration usually arise in response to crisis. It may be an environmental crisis like the one that struck Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. It may be an economic crisis, like that of Dundee, Scotland or Windsor-Essex, Ontario, Canada, or our Intelligent Community of the Year, Eindhoven, Netherlands.. The people of these communities changed in order to adapt to the new world in which they found themselves. They worked to create a more knowledgeable workforce, a higher rate of innovation and greater digital inclusion. ICT became central to their transformation because it has become central to economic and social life.
The McKinsey Global Institute just published a remarkable study called Internet Matters: the Net's Sweeping Impact on Growth, Jobs and Prosperity. I am neither economist nor statistician enough to evaluate its methods, but its conclusions are striking. Based on studying 13 economies that make up 70% of the world's economy, McKinsey says that the Internet has been responsible for 10% of GDP growth over the past 15 years. That contribution amounts to an increase of $500 per person on average over 15 years. Not so impressive, you might think – but it took the Industrial Revolution 50 years to make the same impact. If Internet consumption and expenditures were a separate industrial sector, its contribution today would be greater than that of energy or agriculture.
My favorite part of the study was its explanation of how "Internet ecosystems" let countries capture the maximum economic value from the Internet. The countries profiting most were those that (a) actively develop Internet infrastructure, (b) effectively promote human capital, and (c) ease access to financial capital while creating an attractive business environment overall. all. That list sounds very familiar. At ICF, we use different words – broadband deployment for Internet infrastructure, knowledge workforce for human capital, and innovation for financial capital and an attractive business climate. But the insights are the same.
So, what is an Intelligent Community? It is one where the new infrastructure of ICT is used to make everything in that community work better, where ICT becomes the path to economic prosperity for those who know how to use it, and where people also use it to engage actively in the transformation of their community. You can't have an Intelligent Community full of dumb people. Because, however visionary, a leader with no followers is just a guy out taking a walk.
About the Intelligent Community Forum
The Intelligent Community Forum is a think tank that studies the economic and social development of the 21st Century community. Whether in industrialized or developing nations, communities are challenged to create prosperity, stability and cultural meaning in a world where jobs, investment and knowledge increasingly depend on advances in communications. For the 21st Century community, connectivity is a double-edge sword: threatening established ways of life on the one hand, and offering powerful new tools to build prosperous, inclusive and sustainable economies on the other. ICF seeks to share the best practices of the world's Intelligent Communities in adapting to the demands of the Broadband Economy, in order to help communities everywhere find sustainable renewal and growth.

Vegepreneurs Set Their Sights Beyond FoodBy
Vegetarians represent a small minority of the U.S. population, but their numbers have been increasing steadily, from about 1 percent in 1994 to 4 percent this year, according to a survey commissioned by the Vegetarian Resource Group, a Baltimore nonprofit. Restaurateurs have long capitalized on their demand, and chains such as Native Foods Café and Veggie Grill are thriving in cities like Boulder, Colo., Chicago, and Seattle. Meat and dairy-substitute brands including Morningstar Farms and Silk have cleaned up, too: U.S. consumers spent about $2.6 billion on soy foods and beverages in 2011, according to market researcher Mintel.
While restaurants and food products account for the bulk of businesses run by vegepreneurs, a growing number are starting other types of businesses that cater to the animal rights and environmental concerns of their peers, from fashion design to furniture manufacturing. (Most, perhaps not surprisingly, are in New York City.) Promoting a vegan product, rather than a love for shoes, sparked sisters Sara and Erica Kubersky to start MooShoes, the country's first vegan shoe shop, in New York in 2001. "We were never big shoe people," says Erica. "I mean, we like shoes as much as the next girl, but it was more of a vegan push for us."
Competition from fellow vegepreneurs encourages the Kuberskys, who employ five and project $1.2 million in revenue this year. "We had the idea, but there were no manufacturers in the U.S.," Erica recalls. "So we found vegetarian shoes in England." Today, MooShoes has more than a dozen U.S. competitors and about 30 outside the country. Many shoe brands, including Dansko and Dr. Martens, now make vegan shoes using products such as hemp and canvas. Sharon Lu, 31, vice president and co-founder of EcoVegan, a San Francisco-based meat-substitute business, does not regard other faux-meat companies as competitors. "Our real competitors are in the meat industry."
Tony Ellison says his vegetarianism prompted him to sell environmentally friendly products on his 65-employee e-tailer, Shoplet.com, based in New York: "What does it really cost me to offer an equivalent green item that is similar or better in quality and price but has a positive impact on the environment?"
Environmentalism and animal rights concerns animate many vegepreneurs, who become lifestyle evangelists and adopt a spirit of cooperation unusual for small business owners. Daniel Husserl is a co-founder of Aellon, a $500,000 Brooklyn furniture business launched in 2011 that doesn't use leather or dyes and shellacs made from insects. "We wanted to be able to create a product that had unique design [and] stayed away from using any animal products," he says.
When forming a joint venture with an Indonesian manufacturer in 2011, Husserl says Aellon initially wanted to pay its 25 local employees double the standard local wage. But after a village leader said the disparity would create jealousy, Aellon put the extra money into a micro-finance fund that will help the employees get low-interest loans. "We found an opportunity to be creative, from an ethical and environmental standpoint," Husserl says.
That kind of commitment can help motivate customers to seek out and pay more for vegepreneurs' products. But it's not enough to appeal just to true believers, says Leanne Mai-ly Hilgart, the 30-year-old founder of Vaute Couture, a vegan coat company, also in Brooklyn. "We do have something to offer to people [who aren't motivated by] the ethics behind it. I believe that's an incentive for some, but you also have to blow someone away with functionality and design."

Lee's Summit girls basketball coach Jessica Crawford puts her team through intense practices. Lots of conditioning. Plenty of up-and-down drills.
But for all their hard work, the Tigers had yet to see success in Suburban Conference Big Six play, stumbling out of the gate 0-3.
On Feb. 3, Lee's Summit finally got a little payback for all that effort, notching its first win of the Big Six season with a 68-49 victory over Raymore-Peculiar at the Tigers' gym.
"We gave a really great team effort today," Crawford said. "It gives the kids a reward for all the hard work they've been putting in. My girls work really hard for me every single day. To finally see them get that reward is nice."
Lee's Summit, 6-11 overall and 1-3 in the Big Six, earned that reward with a solid team effort. Junior guard Bailey Baird broke loose for a game-high 23 points while senior point guard Taylor Gilkey scored 13 with three three-pointers. Gilkey also put the clamps on Ray-Pec's Meghan Maher, holding the Panthers' leading scorer to nine points.
And junior guard Eriyanna Jones, who rejoined the team after Christmas break, nearly had a triple-double off the bench with 11 points, nine rebounds and eight steals.
"This was a huge boost for us," Baird said. "We just try to keep improving every game and this was a huge improvement tonight."
That improvement showed in the third quarter, when Lee's Summit turned what had been a close game into a rout. Lee's Summit only led 13-12 after the first quarter, and the Panthers managed to stay within 28-23 by halftime.
Then Baird caught fire in the third quarter, driving the lane for most of her 11 points in the period. Gilkey added two three-pointers, and the Tigers pulled away to a 53-36 cushion by the end of the period.
"She came out on fire," Crawford said of Baird. "She is such a tough matchup because she has such a high jump shot. She actually has the best vertical in the school, and she's someone who can really take advantage of that."
Taylor Koper scored 13 points to lead Ray-Pec, which fell to 5-13 and 0-3. The Panthers also got 12 points from Toni Martin.
But it wasn't enough to keep the Tigers from their hard-earned reward.
"Getting a win under our belt was great," Baird said. "It just gives us more confidence going into the other conference games. This was just a good boost."

I wiggled and wiggled and it would not budge! I gave up and wiped and bled dried what I could reach. Sealed the edges and covers with silicone. I really planned on baking it taking it apart, cleaning the inside with the distilled vodka (which I will be drinking shortly due to this darn plug) and re-seal everything. So I'll see if it did the trick in a few days.

Re: Lot of Moisture in Driver Headlight Assembly
Yeah I have this same problem currently. Nothing says high end car like two fogged up lenses.
Not interested in spending 2K just so my headlights work as expected, will probably drill a drain hole at bottom and a vent at the top. My driver's light has what looks to be a 1" of water in it currently. Never had this happen before and have not replaced bulbs or anything recently. Would also suspect bad seal. My previous GM vehicles also had similar issues like this. I didn't realize it was that hard to have sealed lamps.

COLUMBUS -- Perfect game, perfect season, perfect ending.
The West Holmes girls basketball team has finally finished on top.
The Knights in red and blue saved their most complete game for the season's final day, walloping Kettering Archbishop Alter 62-45 in Saturday's Div. II state championship game. It the program's fourth title, but first since 1986. Also, after finishing the season 29-0, West Holmes is the first Div. II state champion to go undefeated since St. Bernard Roger Bacon in 1995.
Most importantly, though, it is the first state title for seniors Laina Snyder, Emily Molnar and Paiten Strother, after two previous trips to the state tournament. Snyder, Molnar and Strother started in the state championship game as sophomores and juniors, but fell to Shaker Heights Hathaway Brown both times.
"The last two years drove us more than anything," said the point guard Molnar, who finished with 15 points and four assists. "There's no way better way to end it."
"These three seniors are who we are and they have set the tone since they stepped in the gym as freshmen," West Holmes coach Lisa Patterson said. "To finish as state champions and the only undefeated team in the state of Ohio is a proud moment for us. This was the best game we've played all season."
While West Holmes boasted the title-game experience, it didn't seem like the moment was too big for Alter (29-1). Also nicknamed the Knights, Alter scored the first seven points of the game. From there, though, West Holmes reeled off an 11-0 run to take the lead and never looked back. After leading 7-0 with 5:35 in the first quarter, Alter was held without a bucket for more than 9 minutes, missing 11 straight shots.
"We got off to a good start," said Alter co-coach Christina Hart, "but then we stopped being able to shoot the ball. We got good looks and they just wouldn't go down. Then it started to snowball and our kids tried a little too hard."
After Alter snapped its offensive drought with a layup by Hayley Combs to make it 11-9, West Holmes closed the half on a 12-5 run. Strother, who had a game-high 18 points, drained her second trey of the game to put West Holmes up 14-9 and, after a layup by Alter's Libby Bazelak, Molnar answered right back with a layup of her own to stretch the lead back to five (16-11). The senior floor general then launched a trey, followed by a layup from Brittleigh Macaulay for a 21-11 advantage.
Snyder, who was held without a field goal in the first half, collected her first two points of the game on two freebies with 11 ticks left. While Kara Bockrath gave Alter a much-needed boost with a 3 right before the half to cut the deficit to nine (23-14), the momentum was short-lived, with West Holmes scoring the first five points of the third quarter to lead by double digits for the rest of the game.
Alter made two of its first three shots to open the contest, one on a 3 by Emma Bockrath and transition layup by Braxtin Miller. However, Alter, shot just 3-of-17 for the rest of the half and 28 percent for the game. Patterson said her Knights opened by playing matchup zone to compensate for Alter's size, but eventually switched to the man-to-man defense.
"We attempted to play matchup zone, but we acted like we were scrambling a bit on defense," Patterson said. "So we switched to man and did what we've done all year. That was the difference in the game."
West Holmes had success on the other end with Molnar and Strother knocking down perimeter shots. Snyder, who finished with eight points, was 1-for-5 from the field and had 11 rebounds, scored 21 points in Thursday's semifinal against Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary. Alter co-coach Kendal Peck said his team's biggest worry on defense was the Div. II Player of the Year dominating inside. As a result, Alter sold out down low, which left the two senior perimeter players wide open. As a team, West Holmes shot 49 percent for the game and 5-for-11 from long distance. West Holmes' 62 points marked its most offense since a 75-39 romp over Claymont in the sectional final.
Peck said his team didn't really have a choice. After watching West Holmes fail to knock down a 3-point shot against SVSM, that was where his team felt it had the best chance to limit West Holmes' attack.
"We tried to take Snyder out of the game," he said, "and we told our kids if they weren't sure, go to the post. They were 0-for-8 on Thursday shooting the 3 and at the (Classic in the Country) they were 6-of-32. If we were going to give up something, we were going to play the odds. Their (other) two seniors had 33 points. They had to knock them in and they did."
Once Alter, which was led by Bazelak's 16 points, fell behind in the second half, it was forced to press and, against West Holmes' disciplined ballhandlers, that's effectively a Hail Mary. With 4:15 left in the third, West Holmes stretched its lead from 31-19 to 40-21 thanks to layups from Molnar, Macaulay, Strother and Hannah Clark.
"Each one of our kids wanted to make a play," Peck said. "In the second half we tried to take some chances defensively and they're smart and well-coached. They're going to beat you when you trap them, but we had to try that to get the pace going."
Peck knew West Holmes was a talented team before Saturday's game, but his squad certainly didn't expect to get run off the floor by the third quarter.
"I'm surprised we got beaten as badly as we did," he said. "We just couldn't throw it in the ocean. We couldn't force turnovers and get easy looks to get some confidence. I thought it would be a close game. They did to us what we've done to a lot of really good basketball teams."
In a sense, that was also true for the Knights, who had watched the Blazers cut down the nets in 2012 and 2013. In both years, a talented roster laden with underclassmen couldn't quite keep up with a veteran team that had plenty of experience playing on the big stage. In fact, Hathaway Brown lost the state title game twice before setting a record with five straight state championships. Now Alter sits in the same position Hathaway Brown and West Holmes were in -- looking to take the next step after falling to a veteran team in the title game.
After coming up just short twice, Patterson said this is the perfect way to send off her three seniors.
"The pure elation I feel for them is not measurable," she said. "Nothing was going to deny them of winning a state championship."
"We had that mentality that no one was going to stop us," Snyder said.
The three-year journey to bring a state title back to the tradition-laden program is finally finished.

Thanks Daily Record for all the West Holmes write-ups that have been in the paper, they have very interesting. West Holmes girls have been a class act and been a joy to watch.

Oh Wall Street Journal A-Hed column, you had us at "a cross between a Stealth fighter and a Batmobile" (although frankly, we would have gone with the definite article before Batmobile). That's how the paper's intrepid Barry Newman describes one of two top-secret vessels that the United States Navy is looking for someone to take off its hands. In addition to the aforementioned Sea Shadow (pictured), a big black thing designed to "escape detection on the open sea," there is a barge named after Howard Hughes.
It looks like a floating field house, with an arching roof and a door that is 76 feet wide and 72 feet high. Sea Shadow berths inside the barge, which keeps it safely hidden from spy satellites.
The barge, by the way, is the only fully submersible dry dock ever built, making it very handy—as it was 35 years ago—for trying to raise a sunken nuclear-armed Soviet submarine.
Since 2006, the Navy has been offering Sea Shadow and the Barge (which sounds like the name of a terrific sitcom!) for free in a package deal. So far, no takers. "A gift ship from the Navy comes with lots of strings attached to the rigging," writes Kaplan. "A naval museum, the Historic Naval Ships Association warns, is 'a bloodthirsty, paperwork ridden, permit-infested, money-sucking hole…'"

Obama and the Base that Isn't
Welcome to Politics Bites, where every afternoon at It's A Free Country, we bring you the unmissable quotes from political conversations on WNYC. Today on The Brian Lehrer Show, Arianna Huffington and Cornel West took Barack Obama to task for failing to deliver for the people who elected him.
Arianna Huffington, editor in chief of The Huffington Post and author most recently of Third World America: How Our Politicians are Abandoning the Middle Class and Betraying the American Dream, says trying to determine who makes up Obama's base is beside the point. She says the president has certainly abandoned the hopes of the middle class and failed to provide real leadership on economic recovery.
He has not made the middle class his priority. He has not brought the same sense of urgency that he brought to saving Wall Street to saving Main Street. Remember that famous weekend when all the political and financial establishment came together and effectively said we can not allow the financial system to collapse. We have never had the same kind of urgency about jobs, about the fact…that we have 26 million people out of work or underemployed.
Huffington says Obama is not taking the struggles of Americans seriously enough and is wasting energy and money on projects that don't help the people who invested hope in his presidency.
He is pursuing an unwinnable war in Afghanistan, which is not winnable but which is absorbing hundreds of billions of dollars that we need to spend here at home to build our nation, to build our infrasture, to help small businesses create jobs. These are very serious matters.
Huffington argued that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act - the stimulus- should have been much larger and relied less on tax cuts.
Cornel West, University Professor in the Center for African American Studies at Princeton University and co-host of the radio program Smiley & West says Obama quickly abandoned the base that propelled him to office.
There is no doubt that when Barack Obama chose Geithner and Summers, it was a slap in the face of poor people. It was a slap in the face of working people. It was clear that jobs and homes and crime would be afterthoughts and the first priority would be the investment banks, Wall Street, elites and oligarchs. It was a very revealing move.
Responding to the suggestion that Obama had to court the financial establishment since he was being derided as a radical and socialist, West argues appeasing political enemies is not worth the trouble.
They are going to say it any way...Just straighten your back up and say you know what, bring it on. Yes I defend poor and working people. If that's what you call socialism, then yes I defend them. You remember what FDR said: You economic royalists, you are my enemies. I welcome those kind of enemies because I stand for justice.
Coming out strong for his original agenda would have been better than trying to triangulate decisions and court a hostile opposition.
If he had hit jobs and homes and crime as a priority, it would have nipped the bud of this right-wing populism of Tea Party fellow-citizens who have now seized the center stage and are pushing us off the brink in their right-wing way.
But West says angry Obama supporters should not to abandon him, arguing that the solution to frustration with the slow pace of change is not to return power to the opposing party.
Listen to both conversations on The Brian Lehrer Show.

Striking the Myth of the Press Release
An artist spends years honing his craft. H-e writes world-class songs and performs them in a way that moves his listeners to tears. He documents a demo tape and sends it to record labels. H-e gets a contract and becomes rich, famous and admired. The lesson: test tapes would be the secret to become a famous musician. Wait, you say, the test tape was just an instrument, just his way of conveying his expertise. It's his ability as an artist that got him the contract and made him popular. You're right, obviously. H-e might have become just like popular if a record executive saw him personally, or learned about him from a friend, or as a result of a number of other activities. Which brings us to the press release. Somehow, the press release has taken on a reputation while the alpha and omega of coverage. Want to become rich? Send out a news release. Want to become famous? News release. To learn additional info, please check out: http://www.americanownews.com/story/29281148/halbertology-announces-the-release-of-their-latest-gary-halbert-inspired-course. Wanna get on the cover of Newsweek? Press release. Promotion 'gurus' are springing up all over the Internet selling the press release as the answer to all marketing problems. Just knock out a release, large e-mail it to journalists, sit back and watch for Oprah to call. It is a cruel joke. Listed here is the reality: the press release is no more important to your potential of scoring free press than the test tape was to our artist friend. Dig up further on an affiliated site by visiting Halbertology Announces the Release of Their Latest Gary Halbert Inspired Course. If he'd no talent, if his songs sounded like trash, the most effective recorded test tape on the planet wouldn't get him signed. Ditto for the publicity seeker. Unless you have an account to tell, your press release is utterly worthless. I am maybe not knocking the news release -- it is a crucial instrument. Nonetheless it is just that: something. It is maybe not the very first thing you need to think about when it comes time to get publicity. In reality, it's one of the last. And it is not even absolutely necessary (I have gotten lots of advertising with only a pitch letter, a quick e-mail or perhaps a telephone call). Get more on the affiliated wiki - Browse this hyperlink: http://markets.post-gazette.com/postgazette/news/read/30048062/halbertology_announces_the_release_of_their_latest_gary_halbert_inspired_course. If you worship at the shrine of the news release, it is time and energy to change your priorities. Here, then, are what are MORE crucial than a press release in building publicity: 1. A story. Here is the exact carbon copy of our musician's talent. Http://Www.Koamtv.Com/Story/29281148/Halbertology Announces The Release Of Their Latest Gary Halbert Inspired Course is a cogent database for further about the reason for it. It is the basis for the promotion efforts. Without it, your news release means nothing. To learn about how to develop a newsworthy story, take a look at http://publicityinsider.com/questions.asp and scroll all the way down to 'Is my company/website/life actually newsworthy'? 2. Learning to think as an publisher. Oh, what a side you'll have in scoring promotion overall those pr release worshippers once you understand getting in the mind of a publisher. Give a publisher what he wants in how he wants it and you'll do great. I've got an entire article about them at http://publicityinsider.com/freesecret.asp Go there now and absorb everything. Believe me, it'll create a world of difference. 3. Relevance. Tie-in with a news event, make yourself part of a pattern, piggy-back on a larger competitor's story, but, by all means, make your story part of a image that's greater than simply your company. Experiences that you can get in a vacuum quickly go out of oxygen. 4. Endurance. Giving out a press release and looking forward to results is lazy and in-effective. If you really believe in your story, and you believe that it's right for a particular media outlet, you need to fight to make it happen. Call or e-mail the editor to pitch your story BEFORE giving the release. If one manager says no, take to some other person. Should they all say no, come back at them with an alternative story angle.

My essay on Russian propaganda was published over at Sarah's the other day, and I've been busy running around and failed to link to it. In it I discuss why Russian propaganda is so effective – especially in the west. There are some people who actually believe that the Soviet system was effective and fair, that there were no bread lines, and if there were, it's because those greedy Russians insisted on fresh bread every day!
Here's an excerpt.
The Russians don't make a whole lot of mistakes in the agitprop and brainwashing arena. They indoctrinated generations of young people into worshipping suffering, and compared to their subtle campaigns abroad, the efforts against their own populace were positively hamhanded!
Today's propaganda efforts are subtle and gradual. From drafting new history books that whitewashed tyranny – both past and present – to positive Russian messages through media outlets such as RT and Sputnik, to the nearly inconspicuous and dignified repatriation of the body of Russian nationalist philosopher Ivan Ilyin, the Russians continue to excel at indoctrination and propaganda. Is it any wonder they are spending billions to purchase media outlets in neighboring countries to spread their message?
Note how eagerly American Marxists fall for Russia's victim routine.
No, Russians say, they never invaded Crimea! Crimea wanted to separate from Ukraine! There were no little green men, and they certainly weren't Russian! That's just a Western ploy to discredit Russia and keep Russia down, because the United States can't stand to see a successful, sovereign Russia. Oh, and by the way, the US was responsible for manipulating oil prices to ensure that the ensuing sanctions to punish Russia for its actions in Crimea would hurt more!
No, Russia says, life was so much better in the past! There was law and order. There was nationalism. There was love of country and patriotism. All lived for everyone else. We need to turn inwards, says Russia. Do you see how much the West hates us? They impose economic sanctions. They lie about is. They want to cause us economic ruin and steal our resources. Time to look inward and turn away from the evil West.
I think the Russian propaganda efforts provide just the confirmation bias American leftists need to support their lunacy. They've never lived it. They don't understand it. And when Russia says it's not possible that people stood in bread lines, used wadded up newspaper to wipe their asses, and were, at best, denied employment, and at worst, arrested and sent to the gulag for WrongThink (read: criticizing the mighty state), they want desperately to believe it!
There can't be suffering and privations when everyone gets the same, right? It's ultimate equality!
The United States is just evil and is victimizing those poor Russians!
The Soviets took away money and power from those evil capitalists, those evil "rich" until there was no "rich" left and everyone suffered equally (except for those with connections, of course, but we don't talk about that!).
Literally, every bias the American Marxists have is confirmed by Russian propaganda.
Anyway, so I blogged there. The discussion is quite lively, so enjoy!

Lemon-Kale Pesto
(This recipe was adapted from Vegetarian Times magazine: Kale-Pecan Pesto in the January/February 2011 issue, page 81)
1 bunch kale, tough stems removed, leaves torn into smaller pieces
1/3 cup walnut pieces
1-2 cloves garlic, peeled
1/3 cup olive oil
3 Tbs freshly squeezed lemon juice
zest of 1/2 lemon (optional)
1/4 tsp. salt (or more to taste)
Cook kale in large pot of boiling water 2-3 minutes until wilted and bright green.
Drain and cool.
In a blender or a food processor, blend walnut pieces and garlic, until finely chopped. Add olive oil, kale, lemon juice, salt and lemon zest and blend until smooth. If the paste becomes too thick you can add little bit of water to achieve desired consistency.
I served this Lemon-Kale Pesto over Farfalle (Bow-tie) pasta. It was zesty, fresh and full of flavor.

The city implemented AccuFund in 2005 and has used a majority of the modules. Once AccuFund is set up there is little maintenance if updates are installed as released. AccuFund is easy to teach to staff and has the internal controls for a small municipality. I have used numerous accounting software and AccuFund is the best for the value, ease of use and the AccuFund staff are great to work with.
AccuFund's support is exceptional and usually replies within 24 hours. The separate modules integrate with each other and are easily customized to the city's needs. Reporting can be customized.
Accounts payable post details to general ledger rather than one line per invoice. Employee portal calendar stops frequently. Property tax reporting is cumbersome.
I would highly recommend this software as it can be customized for the most government or nonprofit organizations. Before implementation, I suggest you have a clear plan of what you want from the software such as specific reporting, payroll processing, or ease of entry of the data.

The president of the company came to our office and presented a live demo. They spent sessions going over our questions. They provided good references.
We are still implementing it, so I cannot comment at this moment.
Please look at other accounting software and compare cost, functionality and support services.

A full suite of modules that are very customizable
Very unforgiving of errors and not amenable to certain transactions. For instance, invoice cancellation does not release the receiving. Product returns are not supported; i.e., we cannot do negative receiving to match to credit memos. Check voids cannot be reversed although voided checks occasionally clear.
Make sure that you have a VAR with a deep understanding of the product because you will need that support to program it to your needs.

The flexibility of the chart of accounts, reports, and our reseller all trump the options and support we were previously receiving through QuickBooks.
Working with the database setup has been the biggest challenge in our transition to AccuFund. The AccuFund support team has been helpful, but with our complex SQL database configuration, it has taken a substantial amount of effort.
If you are looking for an all-in-one software package that is a step up from QuickBooks but still within a reasonable price range, then AccuFund is the product for you! Account structure flexibility, reporting, and support - the three main strengths in my opinion.

No. 1 North Carolina will conclude a six-game homestand on Tuesday when the Tar Heels welcome Princeton to Boshamer Stadium for a 6 p.m. contest.
The Tar Heels are coming off a second-straight ACC series win after bouncing back from their first loss of the year Friday night to claim a 14-2 win Saturday and a 4-1 win Sunday over visiting Miami.
Carolina maintained its hold on the top spot in the national polls after a 4-1 showing a week ago thanks to the series win over No. 29 Miami.
Princeton enters the week 1-10 on the year and will open a seven-game week against the Tar Heels on Tuesday.
The Tigers boast a pair of former Tar Heels on their coaching staff with head coach Scott Bradley (1979-81) and assistant coach Lloyd Brewer (1978-80). Brewer played with UNC head coach Mike Fox in Carolina's 1978 College World Series appearance.
The Tar Heels will send freshman right-hander Trent Thornton to the mound on Tuesday. Thornton enters the week with a 3-0 record and a 0.47 ERA. Princeton will counter with senior right-hander Kevin Link who is 0-1 in two starts with a 3.27 ERA.
First pitch is set for 6 p.m. on Tuesday and fans can get two tickets for the price of one by stopping by any Cruizers convenience store.

Current Research Interests
My research interests include organic synthesis and methodology, molecular recognition, and the design and implementation of new undergraduate laboratory experiments. Currently students in my laboratory are working on a short and efficient synthesis of tetraethynyladamantane 1. The alkynes will be functionalized with "sticky" ends so as to promote the self-assembly into a lattice framework.
Students have also investigated the use of microwave technology as an energy source in the undergraduate laboratory with the goal of developing new labs that can be performed in one laboratory period.
My primary interests in teaching are in the area of organic chemistry. In addition to teaching the sophomore Organic Chemistry course, I also teach Physical Organic Chemistry, Polymer Chemistry and team-teach Synthesis and Characterization. Each of these classes is taught such that the student is fully engaged in the learning process. I also enjoy teaching both Chemistry Of Food and Women in Science as non-majors courses.
Chief Health Professions Advisor
As the Chief Health Professions Advisor I assist students who are interested in pursuing graduate education in the health sciences, including allopathic, osteopathic and podiatric medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, physician's assistant, pharmacy, physical therapy, and optometry. In addition, I chair the College's Pre-professional Committee who interviews these students in their junior year in preparation of their applications to these schools.

Obama's Red Tape Fight Is Flailing: GAOBy
Most people in Washington who talk about cutting down on wasteful government spending are just paying lip service to the idea. Tom Coburn is a true believer. The senator from Oklahoma has been railing against earmarks and pointless spending with single-minded fervor since he served in the House in the '90s, and goes so far as to check himself with what he calls a "Pork-Busting Scorecard." The exhaustive list on his website details every waste-busting amendment he's proposed, and passed. (He claims his efforts have saved taxpayers "at least $129,090,750,000," and counting.)
This week one of Coburn's crusades came to fruition. The Government Accountability Office published a massive 426-page report chronicling, in pitch-perfect Washington-speak, "Duplication, Overlap, and Fragmentation." That is, all the ways the administration is wasting taxpayer money by doing the same thing again and again across various arms of government.
The GAO must put together these reports every year thanks to an amendment Coburn tucked into a 2010 bill on the debt limit.
This year's takedown is rife with examples of waste. There are 39 programs across four different government agencies that help Americans buy, sell, or finance a home and 94 different initiatives across 11 agencies that are supposed to convince the private sector to build "green buildings." American officials train foreign officials to look out for travelers using fake passports and visas, yet seven different groups in three agencies are providing the same training to the same foreign officials. (Does it sound like I'm repeating myself?) Last year the administration spent $787 million to do background checks on people who wanted to work for the federal government. The process is painfully slow: The government could save time and money, the GAO says, by sharing background check systems rather than having each agency reinvent the wheel.
The Obama administration has its own "Campaign to Cut Waste." Last year, Obama mandated through an executive order that all agencies "hunt down and eliminate misspent tax dollars." The agencies came back with $10 billion in potential cuts, many that could be netted by cutting down on paperwork.
But the GAO says the administration hasn't made a ton of progress. Of the 81 areas listed as "overlapping" or "duplicative" last year, GAO officials say the administration made some progress on 74 percent of them, but only fully addressed 5 percent. Coburn says his colleagues need to step up. "GAO has effectively handed us an entire menu of solutions," says John Hart, his spokesman. "Now all Congress has to do is exercise the political will to put them in place."

SWANSEA CITY striker Danny Graham will miss their clash with West Bromwich Albion tomorrow night.
Manager Michael Laudrup has confirmed the 27-year-old is still suffering from the illness which ruled him out of the game against Liverpool on Sunday.
Graham has not started a game for Swansea since the 2-2 with Reading at the beginning of October when he was taken off at half time.
"Danny is still sick," said Laudrup. "Two or three players in the squad have had the same thing and recovered by he has been suffering for more than a week.
Video: Highlights from Laudrup's press conference
"He is not available. We really don't know (what it is). He has been sick for nearly a week now, he doesn't feel well and he has been feeling dizzy.
"We also have a few more players who are doubtful but I do not want to say too about them at the moment."
Midfielder Jonathan de Guzman came off against Liverpool with a hamstring problem but he is expected to be fit to face West Brom.
Elsewhere, Laudrup dismissed a newspaper story linking the club with Wolverhampton Wanderers defender Christophe Berra.
Laudrup added: "You cannot avoid rumours, they are part of football.
"But the most important players for me at the moment are the ones who are already at the football club.
"Of course we are looking ahead to January and even next June but we are still only in November so we have a lot of games before the window opens."

Practical Ethics
by Viscount Samuel
Publisher: Oxford University Press 1945
Number of pages: 264
Ethics seeks to answer two questions -- What is to be regarded as right and as wrong? and Why should people do what is right and not do what is wrong? In other words, the questions are What is the content of morality? and What is the sanction for morality?

And yet we lament that any empowerment must be subliminal.

Asimov was dead-set opposed to any derivation of his works that didn't explicitly license from him and give him a ton of money. He was so uptight that he would tell kids that they couldn't put Asimov characters in their basement pen-and-paper RPGs, because it would be an IP violation.
He would be drafting a nastygram this morning, and then writing an editorial about how brilliant he is and how vapid printed T-shirts are.
Hmm... I'd have been in for one except for the fact that the robot is wearing his underwear on the outside of his 'clothes'. Or if he's not wearing any clothes other than the underwear or boots, I still can't buy this shirt. I do not need robot MST3K reruns plastered across my chestal region for my roomba to gawk at...
Nice Elijah Bailey reference! Asimov's Robot novels are some of my favorite sci-fi books.

I'm obviously biased here, but I had the same thought you had. My only twist was that maybe it indicates the laws did, after all, win?
too weird for my taste
I'm reading "Robot Visions" by Asimov right now, so I just had to have this shirt.
Congrats, awesome work!
Should get this shirt for Ash - he'd think it was funny. Bishop however is clearly a stalwart defender of the laws (he said so himself), but I still think he'd get the joke.
the colour red represents way too much on this shirt
Okay, the robot knocks the teeth out of the guy and kills him, then the guy comes back to life to scold the robot, then the robot is running for his life.
I don't get it.
Dumbest shirt I've seen in awhile.
This shirt is awesome! Love the reference, but it also made me think of the song with the lyrics "I fought the law and the law won."
Fun fact: Asimov invented the word "robotics."
I LOVE this shirt! The frantic/busy graphics only make it more chaotic, and therefore even more contrary to the robot laws.
Now I just need the money to buy the thing... :'(

Protect itself as long as doing so does not conflict with the first or second laws. He's hiding from presumably human pursuit and prepared to defend himself with a gun... violation of 1 and 2.
I apologise for this in advance as I'm a total noob but can I actually BUY this t-shirt? Please, someone have pity on me and explain! Thanx ^_^

I have a friend who has been wanting to get pregnant again and specifically got off her birth control shots. She told all of us that she succeeded, YIPPY, but when I asked her if she's stopping smoking she said no. "It's not real until I go to the first doctor's appointment." I pointed out that she peed on a stick and it said she's pregnant but she's not budging. Many weeks passed and we were talking about her pregnancy and smoking came up again. "I'm not quitting until I go to the first doctor's appointment. Anyway, I got this app that shows development and it doesn't have lungs so it doesn't matter if I smoke. You've never been addicted so you don't know."
That's true. I don't know what its like to be addicted to a drug. I just know her son has really bad asthma from growing up in a smoking household and, once the doctor told her that nugget of information, then she stopped smoking in the house. I thought she wouldn't want her fetus to start on the road to asthma.
She went to her doctor's appointment and at 7 weeks along posted the good news on FB. She hasn't stopped smoking. "It's hard. Anyway, my mom smoked through her whole pregnancy with me and I'm healthy."
My question is, when does it matter to the development of the zygote or fetus to stop smoking during pregnancy? Is there a "safe" period where its ok to smoke? And how do you react when you see a pregnant woman smoking? Do you feel moved to say something? What do you say?
Thanks in advance for your advise. I'm continuing to be positive and excited for her pregnancy.

Leave it alone for now, her DR will ask her too and she will have to deal with then as well.
Honestly, I probably couldn't keep my mouth. Smoking is terrible for fetal development. She has already hurt one child with her addiction. It would probably be something I pushed until I lost the friendship. She is making terrible prenatal choices and it isn't her right to do so.
Your goal is to get her to quit smoking, right? There is nothing wrong with bringing it up and gently challenging her beliefs that it's not hurting her baby. But nagging, judging, shaming, etc. are not going to make it more likely that she will quit.
I'm not saying that smoking is not bad for you and your baby, but I do wonder how it compares to other exposures to toxins that few people seem to worry about. For example, pregnant women live in urban areas with poor air quality, and no one judges their decision to remain there. Most people do nothing to avoid BPA, but exposure in pregnant women is known to hurt fetal development. Early in my pregnancy I spent an evening close to a bonfire in which people were burning some questionable lumber. It only occurred to me later that I very well may have inhaled fumes more toxic than a cigarette. I'm just suggesting we try to keep things in perspective. All of us had probably made some bad choices while pregnant out of ignorance.
I quit smoking not too long ago after many years. I can say that quitting is not as hard as it seems like it will be when you are in the grips of the addiction. It is really just a matter of choosing to do it. The intense physical cravings only last a couple days. I didn't really like it, but a lot of people swear by the book The Easy Way to Quit Smoking by Alan Carr. (I think that's the right name.) It couldn't hurt to give it to her as a gift, if you are so inclined. And then drop the subject so she doesn't feel nagged.

This statement sounds very offensive to me. Pregnant women have all the rights that other people have.
My question is, when does it matter to the development of the zygote or fetus to stop smoking during pregnancy? Is there a "safe" period where its ok to smoke? And how do you react when you see a pregnant woman smoking? Do you feel moved to say something? What do you say?
Thanks in advance for your advise. I'm continuing to be positive and excited for her pregnancy.
I don't know when a fetus is affected- I would assume the entirety of the pregnancy. There is no safe period to smoke.
When I see a pregnant woman smoking, I am bummed and kinda grossed out, but I say nothing. If it was a really close friend I would share my story of quitting smoking (I quit cold turkey with dd1 the minute the line turned red) and I would offer to help with support if she wanted to quit. I don't think you can say a thing to a woman you don't know well.
My dad died of lung cancer from smoking, so it's really horrifiying to me.
As a former smoker, I would leave the smoking aside (she knows what she's doing) and focus on activities that counter smoking. Is she active at all? Could you encourage her to go for quick walks with you? The only way I quit was by starting to seriously exercise. You could support her by bringing over exercise videos (if you live nearby) and doing them together (working up slowly, obviously) or doing quick walks (obviously, without the smokes). The more active she is, the less she'll want to smoke (because it starts feeling disgusting and becomes counter-productive) and exercise has the added side-effect of helping ease the stress caused by quitting. l second some of the PP that negativity and nagging will not accomplish anything... in fact, she'll be more likely to dig in her heels because she feels attacked. Focus instead on positive things like exercise that will encourage her to get healthy. And even if she doesn't quit, moderately working out will help undo a little of the damage she's causing.
As for your original question, smoking at all stages of pregnancy is dangerous. In the first trimester she's exposing the baby to toxins and carcinogens that affect cell growth and in the later stages the baby's developing lungs, brain, and other organs are being harmed as well. Finally, smoking around children, even if she's not doing it in the house, is dangerous because the chemicals cling to clothes and provide a powerful "second second hand" smoke that can trigger asthma and other problems just like the smoke itself can.
Beautiful baby girl born 8/13/2012. Little star baby lost at 10 weeks pregnant, 12/18/2013. Rainbow baby girl born 12/22/2014.
I smoked when i got pregnant with my first two kids - i did my level best to quit, with my first i gained 85 lbs - i never smoked more than 5 cigs a day and was totally quit in the last trimester. Of course, as soon as she was born i was back at it ....with my second i only gained 65 lbs - lol - i can remember starting my week on Monday realizing , "ok - im pregnant, i have to eat healthy and i cant smoke!" by Wednesday id be bumming a cig off a friend at work - by Thursday id be bumming two....by Friday id buy a pack and smoke it all weekend long - and on Monday wake up to the same sentiment 'im pregnant, i have to eat healthy and not smoke!" i went on like that for MONTHS! By the 8th month i was down to one cig a day - and then didnt smoke at all postpartum.
One thing you can help her focus in on would be the postpartum experience. You mentioned she doesnt smoke in the house anymore - what is her plan after the baby is born? It can be really tough to run outside with a newborn and a toddler in the house! Also - does her DH smoke? mine continued to smoke - in the house, in my face....he never felt the need to quit and refused to understand that his continuing to smoke made it HARDER for me to quit! (yeah i know, were divorced now!)
I dont feel smoking while pregnant is necessarily a death sentence for the baby. Like Laurucha says - there are plenty of things we inhale on a daily basis that arent so great for the fetus. Of course, smoking is within our control and it would be terriffic if she made the effort to quit. It could be argued that gaining 85 lbs was more dangerous than smoking!
I found quitting to be exceptionally hard - i know my MW recommended Nicorette at the time. ( I dont know if that is any better or worse for the baby since its still Nicotine entering your system) Maybe look into that for her - it would make a great Mothers Day present!
Happy at Home Mama to DD 4/95 DS 4/98 and DS#2 8/10
I would leave it alone. She knows smoking is bad for baby- she's just making excuses to justify it to herself for whatever reason. She's an adult and can decide for herself.
You may not like it, but it's none of your business.

Sleepy mama to Colin Theodore 8-12-08 and Trevor Arthur 7-17-12.
Thanks to everyone for their comments. Just for the record, I didn't nag her. It was mentioned 3 times (not all by me) throughout our multiple discussions of everything else pregnancy related. Mostly funny names for the baby and the need to add silent z, q, x, k, or whatever letter into the name.
This may not be an issue for much longer. She's been pre-diabetic for as long as I've known her and at her only doctor's appointment they mentioned that she may develop diabetes during this pregnancy. That scared the poop out of her and she announced she'll be terminating the pregnancy if that happens. She talked about how much she wanted the pregnancy and if she does terminate then she's not going to try getting pregnant again. I told her I'd go with her if she'd like because it's always nice to have someone help you through the protesters.

Sorry, but I don't understand what diabetes has to do with terminating the pregnancy. But it's not you, it's your friend so you don't really have to explain her bizarre thinking.

Usually, and i could be wrong, but usually, gestational diabetes doesn't occur until much later in the pregnancy, and it may be too late to terminate.
The fact is that you can say your peace in a loving, supportive-friend way, but you can't make those decisions for her (regarding smoking).
"Is there a "safe" period where its ok to smoke?"
No, because smoking reduces the amount of oxygen going to the uterus. Even before the placenta is formed, during each time she smokes, there is less oxygen going to her growing baby.
Where I work, we test for gestational diabetes at 28 weeks, way too late to end a pregnancy.

For what it's worth (and I know this thread probably isn't helping anyone by now because the actual person involved won't read it), but I'd like to respectfully disagree with the posters who equate smoking with using BPA bottles and other low-level environmental toxin exposure. There's just no similarity between purposely inhaling toxins including tar and formaldehyde with allowing your kid to have canned soup (which, recent studies have shown, doesn't actually increase the BPA load significantly anyway). I'm all about reducing environmental toxins and I use stainless steel and cast iron or glass in our kitchen for that reason. But as a former smoker, I know the damage I was doing to my body because I experienced it firsthand every time I woke up and every cigarette I smoked. I couldn't walk up stairs without wheezing, I woke up with a hacking cough, and my asthma was out of control. To do that kind of damage to an innocent and developing human being who is completely dependent on you for its survival, health, and development is cruel and selfish. Get over it. Even the nicotine patch is better than the crap people put into their bodies from smoking. You have a choice in the kinds of health decisions you make for your child and there is no excuse whatsoever for continuing to smoke while pregnant. I quit a pack and a half a day habit five years before I conceived and anyone who cares enough about their child can quit too.

Um, you might mention that whether the baby has lungs or not doesn't make a difference. Sorry. I get hung up on random things sometimes. You voiced your opinion that you didn't think smoking is such a wise choice. She's a big girl, she can make her own choices.

SAfrica's rand falls 2.8 pct on outlook downgrade, EZ crisis
JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - South African assets fell on Wednesday when investors were spooked by a ratings outlook downgrade of the domestic economy, which added to market fears over the euro zone debt crisis.
Yields on government debt ended 11 basis points higher on the 2015 issue and jumped 12 points on the 2026 bond partly as the most liquid government bonds reacted to Moody' s rating agency cutting South Africa's A3 rating outlook to negative from stable.
"The (outlook) downgrade combined with all of the international factors, is the biggest driver. It's a definite concern for your international investors if you suddenly get a downgrade," said Marten Banninga of World Wide Capital Securities.
"I do think there is a possibility you get a relook at South Africa from these international investors," Banninga said.
The local market was also tracking the weakness in euro zone bonds and that region's depressed currency.
The rand gave up 2.8 percent from its previous close to the dollar, trading as low at 8.0360 on the day.
The local unit has managed to hold just below the 8 level in the past sessions but broke through that barrier on Wednesday as investors dumped risk.
Europe's current inability to sort out its debt problems has battered sentiment towards emerging markets and Moody's outlook downgrade, although analysts say it is unlikely to lead to a ratings cut, soured sentiment further.
Gill Marcus will make her sixth and final monetary policy statement at 1300 GMT on Thursday and most of the market sees the rate holding steady. Continued...

Cadillac News: 2014 Cadillac CTS configurator open for business
Filed under: Car Buying, Sedan, Performance, Cadillac, Luxury
Cadillac has just set the new configurator for the redesigned, 2014 CTS live. While we've already tested out the new CTS, this is our first chance to play with all the interior and exterior color options and to get a fair idea of the price. The new CTS covers a broad swath from the $46,025 base model, with the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, to the $59,995 VSport, complete with its brawny, 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged V6.
It doesn't take much to send the CTS's price up from there, though. Opt for the VSport Premium trim, and the price immediately jumps $10,000. Opting for one of the premium paint colors is all that's needed to nudge the CTS past $70,000. For reference, a 556-horsepower CTS-V (previous-generation, naturally) starts at $64,515.
