Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 25/4/2014 (1184 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
BIRTLE -- When scores of farmers were driven off the land in the Great Depression of the 1930s, rural municipalities such as the RM of Birtle repossessed their farms for back taxes.
The RMs held onto the land until the economy improved, then put the properties back up for sale.
Except in the case of the RM of Birtle, 20 kilometres south of Russell, where the chief administrator made a very forward-thinking decision. He kept the mineral rights for the RM.
No one gave mineral rights a thought back then. There was no whiff of oil here in the 1930s and '40s. The discovery of oil in Manitoba was still a decade away. In fact, no one suspected anything of value on the land other than the soil.
Flash forward to 2014 and the misfortune of those farmers is paying off in big oil royalties for the RM.
The RM of Birtle has mineral rights on nine quarter-sections in the new Birdtail Field. The first hole produced a oil royalty cheque for $25,000 in just the first month. "We thought we'd died and gone to heaven," said Roger Wilson, the reeve of the RM of Birtle.
Three more wells have since been drilled on RM mineral rights. While the oil volumes have levelled off, the RM is still getting monthly royalty cheques of $20,000 to $30,000 per month, with reasonable expectations more oil wells are coming. Not bad for an RM of just 640 people.
Not all Manitoba RMs held onto mineral rights from repossessed farms, but those that did are reaping rewards today. The RM of Archie, population 325, which borders Saskatchewan to the west, and roughly the Trans-Canada Highway to the south, has mineral rights on 25 quarter-sections. That's in and around Manitoba's newest oil play, the Manson Field. Oil hasn't been discovered on RM holdings yet, but it's only a matter of time. Oil companies have staked all 25 of the RM's parcels.
The granddaddy of them all is the RM of Pipestone, in the Sinclair Field of southwestern Manitoba. Manitoba's largest oilfield was discovered in 2004. Pipestone has mineral rights under 48 quarter-sections of land. It's receiving royalty cheques from about 200 oil wells, for a total of $2 million to $2.5 million per year in oil royalties. "We're blessed with that," said Russ Tycoles, Pipestone's reeve.
Pipestone has about $4 million in its reserves. In fact, the RM mails out $500 royalty cheques once a year to every household.
Manitoba is an anomaly in that about 70 per cent of mineral rights are privately owned, versus less than 50 per cent in Saskatchewan, and a negligible amount in Alberta. That's because the land was homesteaded before the 1890s, when the Government of Canada took over mineral rights in Western Canada, which it later transferred to the provinces.
Royalties aren't the only benefit from the oilpatch. Companies pay taxes of about $700 per year per well. They also pay about $150 per acre for three-year leases to mineral-rights holders on land they want to explore.
When companies build batteries for gathering raw oil and separating out the water, they also make sizable tax payments. The Manson Field has one battery on its tax roll that pays annual taxes of $30,000.
On the other hand, the oil industry does not produce a lot of local jobs, said Wendy Davidson, reeve of the RM of Archie. It's produced only six jobs in Archie, and six in Birtle. In Archie, three people work as well-trackers. Those are well-paying positions where individuals drive around to the wells each day to make sure they're working properly.
Oil companies have been generous to communities, municipalities say. For example, an eight-kilometre stretch of municipal road leading into Birdtail Field in the RM of Birtle, had soft spots and needed repairs. "Tundra (Oil and Gas Ltd.) said fix it and send us the bill," said reeve Wilson. Cha-ching! Tundra covered the $45,000 cost.
Tundra also chipped in $17,500 for renovations at Birtle's ice arena and $10,000 to upgrade its fire truck. Other oil companies have also contributed to local fire departments and community centres.
What an oil discovery brings to a community is a lottery mentality, where people with privately held mineral rights wait, hoping oil companies drill on their land. One of those with mineral rights is Wilson, the Birtle reeve whose main occupation is as cow-calf producer.
Wilson has heard rumours an oil company is supposed to drill a hole on his property this spring. "You can't take rumours to the bank," he said, but he's got his fingers crossed.

Recast Results for Empire Records
The Results Are In: Recast Empire Records
Every other Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge, where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar t-shirt!
I'm glad to see everyone shared in my enthusiasm for one of my favorite movies out of the '90s, Empire Records! These are really fun characters to recast and I'm sure young actors in Hollywood would die for a part in a movie like this.
I liked that both daisydidi and lookwhatimade suggested Mandy Moore for the character Liv Tyler played, Corey. Mandy is someone I could see in an independent record store, yet she gives off a "once I'm done here I'm off to the Ivy league" vibe.
I was also totally thrilled to see Olivia Thirlby's name pop up many times; I think she'd be right at home in a movie like this.
For the boys, I liked Whip's idea for Joseph Gordon-Levitt to play A.J. (he's another one of those actors whose name makes me smile), and my friend Citizen's pick for A.J., Michael Rady (a.k.a. the cutie from The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and now Swingtown), is great too.
In the end, I went with the cast that's hard to argue with: Congrats to Mary_Sofi!
To see who she chose, along with a new cast photo,
Mary_Sofi's cast list:
Corey — Nikki Reed
A.J. — Adam Brody
Gina — Blake Lively
Debra — Ellen Page
Lucas - Josh Gad
Mark - Andy Samberg

As followers of Valuentum know, we're not too fond of airline stocks. We view them as merely speculative bets on changes in the macro-economy and jet-fuel prices — two factors largely out of airline executives' control. Though we've made some money in our Best Ideas Newsletter entering into put contracts in American (AMR) and the Guggenheim Airline ETF (NYSEARCA:FAA) a number of weeks ago, we cover the group — to a large extent — to serve as a reminder to investors that airline stocks are merely speculative instruments and not long-term investments. Below, we summarize the third-quarter performance of Southwest (NYSE:LUV), American, and Alaska (NYSE:ALK) below:
Southwest posted a net loss in its third quarter Thursday, which compares to net income of over $200 million in the same period a year ago. The biggest contributor to the loss was an unrealized, noncash mark-down related to the company's fuel-hedging portfolio. It's worth noting that the airline industry is so unpredictable that in cases when fuel prices actually decline, airlines can find a way to lose money. What's more, Southwest put up the loss on revenues that set an all-time quarterly record, $4.3 billion. As we look ahead, Southwest mentioned that booking trends remain strong and that business travel has remained stable, reinforcing our view that we are not headed for a recession in the U.S.
Valuentum followers are well aware of the bankruptcy risk inherent to American and reaped the benefits of the rapid decline in the firm's share price in previous weeks. The troubled airline reported a net loss of $163 million in its third-quarter October 19 thanks to a 41% jump in fuel prices (this also compared to a net profit in the year-ago quarter). The airline noted that it is taking "aggressive action" to improve financial and operational performance, but we think the carrier's probability of bankruptcy is significantly elevated over the next few years. As we've outlined previously here, the firm's massive net debt load, pension obligations, and cost structure are the worst among domestic peers. Plus, Southwest's aggressive fare prices — one-way tickets as low as $35 — will only exacerbate AMR's dire position (the carrier's recently announced capacity cuts aren't enough). In a commodified industry such as that of air travel, the lowest cost provider will win — and AMR is far from that.
Alaska Air Group, arguably one of the better-positioned airlines, posted a profit Thursday for its third-quarter. The airline's performance was the best among the three reports summarized in this note. Revenues advanced 12% on record load factors and higher yields in each month of the quarter, which offset a 40%+ jump in economic fuel costs. We were encouraged by Alaska's results — its highest adjusted quarterly profit ever — but we're not compelled to jump into owning any airline at this time.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

TROY, Ala. -- ULM scored the final five runs Friday night as the Warhawks snapped its recent losing streak with a 7-4 win over Troy at Riddle-Pace Field.
ULM (8-15, 1-3) was able to tie the game at 4-4 with two runs in the top of the sixth inning. Keelin Rasch tallied a one-out double down the right field line and came in to score on Justin Stawychny's RBI single up the middle. Later in the frame, with Stawychny on second and two outs, Fuller picked up a RBI single down the left field line, allowing Stawychy to score and even the game at four-all.
Simoneaux led off the seventh inning with a standup double to the gap in right center and pinch hitter Cody Stone gave ULM runners at the corners as Hicks' throw to third on a fielder's choice sac bunt was not in time. After Will Shell replaced Hicks, Dalton Herrington doubled off of the wall in right field to pick up a RBI and give ULM runners at second and third. After a groundout, ULM increased its lead to 6-4 as Stone scored on a wild pitch and Herrington moved to third. Rasch concluded the three-run frame for the Warhawks with a RBI single up the middle to give the vistors a 7-4 lead.
ULM held Troy (12-10, 1-2) scoreless over the final four innings and for the game the Trojans stranded a total of 13 base runners.
Warhawk middle relief pitcher Carey Taylor (2-1) earned the win after holding Troy scoreless during his 3.1 innings of work. The senior right-hander allowed one hit and five walks with three strikeouts during his 70-pitch outing. Tyler Bray earned his second save of the season as he recorded the final four outs of the game (all via strikeout) while allowing just one base runner (walk).
Troy starter Tanner Hicks (2-3) was tagged with the loss after allowing six runs (four earned) on seven hits with two walks and two strikeouts.
Keelin Rasch and Chet Simoneaux led the Warhawks as they each tallied two hits with one RBI and one run in the win.
Garrett Pitts led the Trojans with two hits and two runs and the second baseman also recorded three walks as he reached base all five times Friday night.
ULM got things going in the top of the second inning as the visiting Warhawks plated the first runs of the game. With one out in the inning, Kodie Tidwell singled up the middle and moved to second as he swiped his third bag of the year. After Jeff Fuller drew a walk, Jacob Stockton's comebacker up the middle was knocked down by Troy pitcher Tanner Hicks but Stockton was able to reach first with an infield single to load the bases.
Tidwell was able to score easily as he raced home on a passed ball by Trojan catcher Justin Hancock. ULM plated its second run of the inning as Simoneaux recorded a RBI single that hit off of the glove of a leaping Hicks and allowed Fuller to score and put ULM ahead 2-0.
After stranding a pair of runners in each of the first two innings, including three in scoring position, Troy evened the game with two runs in the bottom of the third. Garrett Pitts ledoff the inning with a single up the middle and he moved to second on a balk by Warhawk starter Chris Hunt. With two outs in the frame, Nick Masonia drew a walk to give the Trojans runners on the corners.
Hunt's second balk of the frame allowed Masonia to move to second and Pitts trotted home for the first Trojan run of the game. Masonia later stole third and was able to race home and tie the game thanks to a throwing error by Simoneaux.
Troy moved in front as the Trojans scored in the bottom of the fifth inning. Pitts led off the inning with a walk and moved to second on a sacrifice bunt by Trevin Hall. David Hall followed with a double to the gap in right center that allowed Pitts to score and put Troy in front, 3-2. After a pitching change with one out in the fifth, Warhawk reliever Carey Taylor surrendered a two-out double off of the wall in right as Hall scored to put Troy ahead, 4-2.
The two teams will return to action tomorrow evening with first pitch slated for 6 p.m. ULM is expected to send Chad Miller (Sr., LH, 2-0, 4.23 ERA) to the hill, while Troy will likely counter with Shane McCain (Sr., LH, 3-1, 1.06 ERA).

Even as a young girl growing up in the Bronx, Cynthia Ozick knew she wanted to be a writer. An uncle's success as a Hebrew poet inspired her, as did stories told by her maternal grandmother, who lived with the family and often cared for Ozick while her parents spent long hours running their pharmacy. At five Ozick began writing simple poems, by eight she was experimenting with short stories, but not until she was an adult, and a mother herself, did publication and literary acclaim finally arrive.
Trust, published in 1966—the year after the birth of Ozick's daughter Rachel—is the story of a young woman's epic quest for the elusive father she has never known. Ozick's next three books were story collections and novellas: The Pagan Rabbi (1971), Bloodshed (1976)—which contains "Usurpation," the first of her four O. Henry Award-winning short stories—and Levitation (1982). These books firmly established the themes of Jewish identity that pervade Ozick's fiction.
Writing book reviews led to Ozick's first collection of essays, Art and Ardor (1983), the same year her second novel, The Cannibal Galaxy, hit the shelves. Four years later, she published another full-length work of fiction, The Messiah of Stockholm, a tale of intrigue surrounding the paternity of a Jewish book critic who claims he is the son of a Polish writer killed by the Nazis during the Holocaust.
The novel The Puttermesser Papers (1997) tells the story of Ruth Puttermesser, a smart Jewish working woman in New York City whose life is filled with disappointment. Quarrel and Quandary (2000), a collection of essays, brought Ozick a National Book Critics Circle Award.
Ozick's 2004 novel and a Today Show book club selection, Heir to the Glimmering World, is the story of Rose Meadows, a young woman who finds employment with a family of German Jews living off the generosity of James A'Bair, the adult son of a famous children's author. In 2006, Ozick published her fifth collection of essays, The Din in the Head. A writer of wit and intelligence, Cynthia Ozick's crystalline prose and beautiful imagery bring to life characters and ideas that remain with the reader long after the book is closed.
"What a curiosity it was to hold a pen—nothing but a small pointed stick, after all, oozing its hieroglyphic puddle.... An immersion into the living language: all at once this cleanliness, this capacity, this power to make a history, to tell, to explain. To retrieve, to reprieve!"
—Rosa Lublin in The Shawl

Varian Sigmund- Outside Broken Keg, Dalenham
Varian waited for the rest of the group to exit the tavern. He continually looked to the sides of the sh*t-filled streets in expectation of the inevitable appearance of guards. He hoped however, that he and the others would be long gone before they got here. He certainly didn't intend to spend the night in a cell the night before finding new work, especially one so rewarding.
"Wolf Pops!" The voice of Xeye filling his ears. Varian turned over to see her exiting the bar. Behind her, he noticed chaos still ensuing. He squinted his eyes, seeing not only fighting now, but also fire.
"Isir be damned..." He whispered under his breath.
"Can I destroy this dump of a bar? Pleeeeeeeaaase, Wolf Pops!?"
"What are you, mad?" He bellowed at the tiny girl. "Are you fixing to get a price on our heads? Or hanged?!" His gazed remained on her for a few moments longer, before he gazed away back at the streets. He could hear the guards apparently already on their way. "Gods...!" Alright," he began, addressing the group. "Do what you want. I care not. But mark me. Tomorrow upon the dawn, we set out on the job. If you're not present, I'll take it as a sign you've decided to part ways. That, or you're in the dungeon. Or dead. Whatever the reason, we take off without you."
Without another word to the group, Varian grabbed a hold of a still very drunk Cassandra on the floor of the ****-filled cobblestone street, and slung her over his neck, taking off to one of the many roads away from the tavern. Whatever they decided to do, he'd see the others tomorrow. Or not.
Varian Sigmund- Edward's Tavern, Dalenham
A sharp pain came from the center of Varian's forehead. He groaned, placing a hand upon the area of discomfort, as if to try and rub it away. Ironically, went he rubbed his hand around the area, he felt an oddity, and looked back upon his fingers to see the remains of dried blood. Despite the throbbing in his head, Varian sat up, his gaze lingering on his fingers for a moment longer. As he looked around the room, a few questions came into his mind. How did he end up here? Where exactly was he? And who in Isir's name was the unclothed woman lying next to him?
As he got out of bed and began dressing himself, he contemplated these questions. Parts of his body ached as he looked at a few places were new bruises and scratches were formed. Some of them he was able to identify from the barfight. Others were new to him, their origin likely afterward, but from what Varian could recall. By the sound of his movement, the woman began to stir, yawning and stretching her limbs as she opened her eyes. She looked up at Varian who stared down at her. Her features were quite nice. Long brown hair and eyes to match it. She was well-figured, and her skin was smooth and relatively flawless. For a Dalenham girl, at least. There was a moment or two of silence between the pair, before the woman gave the Highman a smile, and spoke softly. "Good morning." She said softly to him.
"Good morning." He stated back to her. He continued to dress himself as he placed on his sleeveless leather vest, and then his baldric over that. Harnessing his axes upon his back, he looked back down to the woman. Again, a brief pause between the two. She continued to smile up at him, while Varian shifted between examining the room and the woman. "Sleep well?" she asked him.
"More or less." Varian replied. He paused momentarily on what he should say next, but then decided to blurt out, "So...shall I pay you now or have I already done so last night?"
The next sight Varian saw was a hand coming upon his cheek, smacking him loudly enough that perhaps if others outside the door were present, they too would have heard it. Varian's cheek instantly starting becoming red from the slap. "Right." He said, heading for the door. "I suppose that means last night..." He said in a rush, exiting the door, just as the woman began cursing after him.
On the other side of the door, Varian found himself in the familiar sight of Edward's tavern. The old, creaky, filthy-looking tavern looked much the same as it did when he entered it the day before to collect his silver for the job, though some tables appeared to have been damaged. A few stools also appeared to be out of place. Varian began to recall a bit of what happened though it was all very hazy. After he split apart from the group, he and Cass must have headed here. He remembered Cass challenging him to another round of drinking. He didn't remember exactly how, but the damned woman had somehow managed to coerce him into it, and the rest was history.
"You silver-tongued devil, you." The familiar voice of Edward said to Varian from behind his counter at the helm of the tavern. He smiled spitefully at the Highman as he cleaned a mug with a dirty rag. He headed towards Edward without an immediate reply, rubbing the side of his face as he tried to orient himself.
"How much for the room?" Varian asked in his usual cold voice.
"Oh, you already paid las-", Edward stopped himself in the middle of his sentence. "...Uh, that'll be fifteen bronze pieces." He said with a smile. Varian did not bother to put up a fight about the ridiculous price of the room, still feeling the effects of the no-doubt large amount of drinking he had done the night before. He placed the bronze pieces from his bag onto the table, and looked around the dump of a tavern.
"Have you seen Cass around?"
"Eh? Not since last night. Boy did you two go at it. Haven't seen this dump this lively since the Guild Wars! I should have the two of you drunk off your brains in my bar more often, it's great for business!"
Varian stopped listening to the man after he mentioned he hadn't seen Cassandra, and began to head for the exit. Edward kept on shouting after Varian as exited the bar, and for a while too as he was outside, but eventually the sounds of his voice faded away as he integrated back into the main street. Varian was able to get it together along the way, shaking off most of the effects of liquor through the 'fresh' air of Dalenham, and was feeling loads better as he approached the gates of Dalenham, where the group was supposed to meet. Already at the gates was the merchant, who beamed at the sight of the first of them.
"Ah! You have come! I was worried none would show, especially after that incident that happened last night at the tavern you were frequenting. Did you hear about it? Terrible news, the guards even had to arrest a few ruffians."
Varian kept his silence, not replying to the merchant beyond the initial nod he gave him upon seeing him. But he did wonder if any of those 'ruffians' the merchant spoke of that now occupied the Dalenham dungeons were any of his group. He supposed he would soon find out.

The Prison is the 7th map of the Slenderman's Shadow series and, as the title shows, it takes place in a prison. It was released on October 8, 2012. The goal is to collect all 8 photographs before Slender Man catches the player.
- Slender Man has a new model in this map: it looks a bit thinner and a bit less tall, and his head looks egg-shaped.
- There is new music for when you collect the photographs.
- If you try to go in between a toilet and a bed in one of the cells, you may glitch through the map.
- The prison is currently the most difficult map in the Slenderman's Shadow series. One of the main reasons is after picking up the 1st photo, you have approximately 130 seconds to collect the other photos and escape the prison before Slender Man catches you.
- This is the first Slenderman's Shadow Game to use static noises similar to Parsec's.
- This is the fourth map to be indoors.
- This is the third map to have the flashlight break (momentarily in this map).
- There are several flashlights lying around in the prison. Even when your flashlight breaks you cannot pick them up.
- The Slender Man follows you instead of chases you and when you see the screen static flash, it means he has found you and is chasing you. He will often teleport behind you when this happens, in a similar fashion to when he teleports in the original Slender.
- There is a distortion of light in the game making the flashlight turn green at times. Despite the rumors, the creators posted on their YouTube channel stating: "It's just the flashlight light being distorted by the fullscreen shader (Chromatic aberration). Nothing to do with Slender Man's proximity". People sometimes confuse it for the screen static flash, which lets you know that Slenderman has found you.
- When you start sprinting, it gives away your position and the Slender Man finds you faster.
- In the Unity remake it has you collecting pages.
- This is the first map that has the hand in the middle of the screen when you see photos/pages.
- Slender Man's AI has updated a lot. He is 10 times faster than he used to be.

This collection features letters home from Warren R. Austin (Senator, 1931-1946), Jacob Collamer (Representative, 1843-1848; Senator, 1855-1865), and Samuel C. Crafts (Representative, 1817-1824; Senator 1842-1843). The letters document travel to and from Washington by horse, boat, train, and airplane; lodging in boarding houses, hotels, and homes; social life in Washington; significant local and national events; and legislative issues under consideration in Congress. Austin's letters are particularly strong in their coverage of his frustration at being a minority Senator during the era of Roosevelt and the New Deal; his activities on the Judiciary Committee; and foreign affairs questions such as the Neutrality Act. The letters of Crafts and Collamer both extensively cover the question of slavery, discussing Missouri statehood, John Brown, the annexation of Texas, and the Civil War. All three Congressmen frequently discuss questions regarding appropriations and the Federal budget.

DPharp EJX -- EJX110A-M
Based on the field-proven DPharp digital resonant pressure sensor technology of the EJ and EJA series, EJX offers even more. The new design is smaller, lighter, faster, smarter, and more accurate. The new compact design is full of features and benefits ranging from an accuracy of 0.025% (soon to be released), the best in the industry, to an LCD indicator that simultaneously displays % of reading and pressure, and is fully configurable with a wide variety of display modes.
The EJX has clearly taken the lead in accuracy, repeatability, stability, and quality. The DPharp digital sensing technology is inherently resistant to drifting caused by over pressure events like water hammering and high pressure wash-down.
The EJX is available to measure differential pressure, gauge pressure, absolute pressure, and level, with spans ranging from 0.1" WC to 7,250 PSI. World-wide safety agency approvals, including the new ATEX and SIL2 approvals are standard.

"Tho' the springtide sun be fair,
Brighter far beyond compare
Shineth Iseult's golden hair!
"Springtide hours pass all too fleet,
Haste, my steed, on flying feet,
Ah, but Iseult's lips are sweet!
"Iseult, lily, Iseult, rose,
At my heart the love-drink glows,
Thro' my veins like fire it flows!
"Iseult, Iseult, when the light
Fadeth, clasp me, hold me tight,
Kiss me, dearest, into night!"
"Art thou waiting for me, my Lady,
Alone in thy royal bower?
Dost thou send a word thro' the silence
To hasten the passing hour,
'Hath he ever a thought for me, my knight?
Will he come to my arms with the fading light?'
"I am coming, love, I am coming--
Breathe soft, O wind of Spring,
Sail fast, O fleecy cloudlet,
Speed, bird, on glancing wing,
Whisper a word in my Lady's ear,
Tell her the sound of my feet ye hear!
"Ah, never had knight a lady
Fair as my queen is fair;
On a golden throne she sitteth,
In the blaze of her red-gold hair--
And little he dreams, my lord the king,
Of the secret that maketh her heart to sing.
"Are we false? are we true? I know not,
The twain are so wrought in one;
But whether for joy or for sorrow,
The sands of our fate must run--
And what matter if men condemn us quite,
Since all the world shall be ours to-night?"
"I ride adown the forest aisles
From morn till evening shade,
Beneath the stars of heaven my head,
At fall of night, is laid.
No comrade wendeth at my side,
No voice bids me God-speed,
Alone by hill and vale I ride,
Alone by wood and mead.
"For somewhere, near, or far away,
One waiteth long mine aid,
I may not rest, by night or day,
Until his grief be stayed.
For many a year, with prayer and tear,
I've sought to find the way,
But rough or smooth, the path I choose
Still leadeth me astray.
"I may not rest from
off my quest,
I may not stay my hand,
Tho' Life and Love be waiting me,
Far in a distant land.
I may not see my wife's fair face,
I may not faint nor fail,
Till I have won Anfortas grace,
And found the Holy Grail.".
Sir Gawayne hath sought the isles of light
Beyond the shores of day,
Where morn never waneth to shades of night,
And the silver fountains play;
There he holdeth high court as the Maidens' Knight,
In the Maidens' Isle, for aye.
And Tristan sleeps by his lady's side,
To the dirge of the sounding sea;
And the foaming wave and the flowing tide
Hide the twain, that no man may see
Where they take their rest, and their fate abide,
Till the dawn of Eternity.
But Lancelot wrought a penance hard
To win from his sin release,
And his face was by fast and vigil marred
Or ever his pain might cease.
Now his body lieth in Joyous Gard,
And his soul hath gotten peace.
And Perceval, doth he wake or sleep?
Ah, no man shall tell that tale--
Perchance he lieth in
slumber deep
With the Eastern sands for veil;
Or perchance, in a distant land,
doth keep Watch and ward o'er the Holy Grail.
But when the archangel trump shall call,
And the Heavenly Feast be spread,
Say, which of those heroes, among them all,
Shall lift up a fearless head,
And walk the pavement of Heaven's high Hall
With unashamèd tread?
Sir Gawayne, methinks, shall hide his face,
Abashed and overawed,
And the lovers twain, by Jesu's grace,
Sit low at the Heavenly board;
But the King of Heaven shall rise from His place
When He seeth MonsalvŠsch' lord--
"Welcome, O Brother, who bare thy part
In the travail of My soul,
Who knew no rest of hand or heart
Till thy brother might be made whole;
Come thou, and sit at My side, apart,
While the stars 'neath our footstool roll."

Deer season in northern Pennsylvania, when the woods explode with gunfire and bloody carcasses hang from cross-poles.
Only this time, the carcasses aren't just deer.
The Wildlife Liberation Front, a bloodthirsty and radical animal rights group, has decided to turn the tables on hunters this year, with bullets, blades and bombs. And Ned Craig, a non-violent game warden, finds himself the target of not only the WLF, but another killer from his past with a more personal grudge.
While bodies pile up as quickly as the snow in the most vicious storm in years, Ned and the woman he loves are finally trapped at a rusting fire tower on the edge of a cliff. Hunted by both a cadre of armed terrorists and a suicidal maniac, Ned has to confront them all, along with his own fears, or else become the final victim in the bloodbath...

There is an undeniable truth expressed in Masters of Nothing – the latest mischievous book about the financial crash published earlier this week.
In the book, subtitled The Crash and How It Will Happen Again Unless We Understand Human Nature, authors Matthew Hancock and Nadhim Zahawi claim that unless we recognise how human behaviour affects the ways that companies operate, we will make the same critical errors that caused the banking crisis.
Hancock, former chief of staff for George Osborne, the UK shadow chancellor at the time, and Zahawi, former chief executive of YouGov, the online polling agency, say there is an "urgent need" to get more women into City boardrooms.
They back the idea that women should account for at least 30 per cent of boards and argue that companies should be given just one year to achieve this level of diversity, after which forcible legislation should be introduced.
"The people at the top of banks were engaged in very masculine competition. It can be called the 'sexio-economic effect', or, to put it plainly, the 'my bank's bigger than yours' phenomenon", they write.
Two things make this book interesting. First, it comes from a high-profile Tory backbencher and a successful entrepreneur (rather than a more left-leaning politico); second, it has arrived in British bookshops less than a week before Sir John Vickers' Independent Commission on Banking is due to report on banking sector reforms.
The authors float all kinds of controversial ideas – such as joint chief executives and 10-year clawbacks for banker bonuses – but none more so than recommending that banks' retail and riskier investment activities should be separated, ring-fencing retail deposits in the process.
The book is a quick and enjoyable read, filled with insider anecdotes worthy of the Goldman Sachs elevator tweets. My personal favourite is the authors' claim that Sir Fred Goodwin, when he was chief executive of Royal Bank of Scotland, believed it a disciplinary matter if pink wafers were served with afternoon tea.

Heavy industry in the aluminium, copper, steel and petroleum sectors is set to initially receive a large proportion of its permits free under a carbon scheme, after the Greens flagged yesterday that they were willing to compromise their long-held position that assistance should be less generous.
Clearing one of the stumbling blocks in negotiations with the federal government over a carbon price, Greens deputy leader
And as new research by the International Energy Agency showed that reliance on gas would lead the world to a 3.5C temperature rise, Senator Milne said the Greens wanted support "in the billions" for renewable energy, such as solar thermal technology.
But the Greens' concession is unlikely to appease the steel industry, which is seeking full exemption from the scheme and is concerned the assistance might decline quickly.
Also unresolved is the position of coalmines and power generators. The Greens insist they do not require assistance but Resources Minister
"Nobody is talking about anything other than negotiating in good faith, with the exception of Martin Ferguson," Senator Milne said yesterday.
"We know it will be a compromise but the government must also recognise it is a compromise. We want to get a carbon price which is effective."
The shift in the Greens' position came as a Labor backbencher from the steel region of Illawarra,
"If we are to compete with manufacturing in China, it is not going to be around price, it is going to be around quality," he said. "I and other members of caucus are keen to ensure manufacturing and regions do not get left behind in any compromises. That is a clear message to the Greens." His comments follow campaigning by Opposition Leader
"Any Labor member for a mining seat, for a manufacturing seat, who is not asking questions of the Prime Minister about the carbon tax right now is betraying his or her electorate," Mr Abbott said yesterday at a garage manufacturer in Canberra.
The Greens' position on industry assistance reflects recommendations by the government's climate change adviser
He proposed the CPRS assistance levels apply before a move to a "principled" approach – compensating companies for the impact on product prices of other countries not adopting the same carbon price as Australia.
Senator Milne said a "principled approach" was not initially possible as the Productivity Commission had been unable to collect sufficient data on carbon pricing in other countries.
"What we are negotiating is a package around EITEs," she said.
"We still prefer Professor Garnaut's principled approach but we are not going to get it. We are going to have to start with a program which improves over time."

Nufarm is set to reveal its full-year numbers next week and DealBook can reveal the company has lined up a group of lenders for a $600 million refinancing deal to refinance the company's bank facility which matures in December.
The deal is expected to comprise a $600 million revolving credit loan, with a portion earmarked for a bond raising the US capital markets, according to bankers that spoke to Financial Review DealBook.
Credit approved proposals were received early this week from a range of leading commercial and investment bank, including offshore-based banks from Asia, Europe and the US, according to banking sources.
The deal is expected to include debt with a minimum maturity of three years. Margins ranging between 250 basis points to up to 300 basis points over benchmark rates have been mentioned.
The deal is expected to be arranged as a revolving facility, with a potential bond raising in the US high yield capital markets being touted to refinance a component of the new syndicated bank facility in the not-too distant future to take advantage of the company's BB credit rating.
"They asked banks to do some of the revolver to get the capital markets business," a banker told Financial Review DealBook, who declined to be identified because the conversations were confidential. "So, they want to diversify their funding, and extend the tenor of their debt."
The Melbourne-based crop treatment manufacturer appointed corporate advisory firm Grant Samuel as financial adviser on the company's refinancing. Rabobank completed a three-year, multi-currency $300 million trade receivable securitisation facility earlier this year.
"Nufarm is now working with prospective financiers to determine final composition and details of new banking arrangements to complete the financing," the company said in an announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange on Friday. Nufarm did not provide details of the transaction.
Nufarm also said it was increasing the margin on its Nufarm Step-up Securities (NSS) to 3.9 per cent, and that it would only recover $13.5 million for receivables that were written down to a value of $25 million, "resulting in a further write down at year-end", the company said on Friday.
Last week, brokers revised ratings on Nufarm after the company raised its full-year earnings forecast, saying underlying net operating profit for the year to July 31, before one-offs and the receivable loss, was expected to beat the top end of its guidance of $88 million to $94 million.

back to top
Since the Nation At Risk report was presented to the American public
in 1983, there has been a combination of increasing demands for accountability
and the desire to measure a variety of complex educational outcomes in
elementary and secondary schools.
State standards, national standards, natural assessment, performance
assessment, authentic assessment, evaluation, standardized tests, norm-referenced
tests, and out comes based education are just a few of the euphemisms that
swirl around educators as they address the intricacies of school transformation
(Biemer, 1993).
While many voices call for a variety of changes in education, the primary
challenges have been deciding what it is students should know and be able
to do and how should schools accurately assess what students know and are
able to do. If national, state, and/or local standards are to survive,
there must be a way to assess student performance.
A case in point is the Iowa effort to develop outcomes. Iowa is now
reconsidering its outcomes based education initiative after nearly two
years of study and development. While there were many reasons for this
decision, one of the major factors in designing new direction for the state
was that the "initiative left many to assume that the out comes were too
broad for appropriate testing or that such testing would be inappropriately
value-laden" (William Lepley, personal communication to State Board and
Educators in Iowa, May 5, 1993).
The State Board of Education and the Iowa Department of Education accepted
leadership for improving the performance of Iowa's students. To this end
the Board and Department engaged in specific steps including: (a) allocation
of resources to the development of assessment measures; (b) providing support
necessary for schools to implement local policies related to standards,
assessment, technology, and community-based planning processes; and (c)
recognition of new measures of performance such as performance examinations
and portfolio assessment (Lepley, 1993).
As the school transformation efforts in Iowa and across the nation intensify,
there is a need for a new philosophy of assessment that never loses sight
of the student (Wiggins, 1989). As noted by LaMahieu, Eresh, and Wallace
(1992), there must be:
. . . a better match between assessment content and form on
the one hand and desired classroom events on the other. The argument goes
that if efforts at school reforms are to take root and effect lasting change,
traditional forms of testing will have to yield to models of assessment
that can be subsumed genuinely as an integral part of the learning process.
(pp. 8-9)
Further, the interest in student assessment has been fueled by accountability
issues. There is a critical need for student performance data to be organized
in such a way that it can be communicated to and comprehended by students,
teachers, parents, and the community. ,To do anything less will erode support
for education and short change student learning.
While these issues surrounding student assessment grow increasingly
more challenging for educators, there is not widespread understanding about
how they should be addressed. A recent survey jointly sponsored by the
American Association of School Administrators (AASA), the National Association
of Elementary School Principals (NAESP), the National Association of Secondary
School Principals (NASSP), and the National Council on Measurement in Education
revealed a lack of confidence among school administrators about their own
knowledge and skills in designing assessments and using assessment data
to make decisions about students (AASA, 1993).
In an effort to assist PK-12 educators, teacher preparation faculty,
and Department of Education leaders in initiating dialogue, building understanding,
and resolving critical issues, 37 lowa PK-12 administrators and teachers,
college/university faculty members, intermediate education agency specialists
and research consultants were invited to the University of Northern lowa
campus. Individuals were selected based upon their keen interest in PK-12
student assessment, their skills as communicators, and their enthusiasm
for exploring the challenges facing student assessment in the interactive
environment characteristic of the working conference format.
Each conference participate selected 1 of 5 issue areas for indepth
Each participant prioritized issue areas and was invited to write a
position paper on the area of greatest interest. Papers were submitted
prior to the conference, copied and sent to participants in the same issue
area. This monograph is a compilation of the position paper in each issue
area as well as the consensus reports developed by the five groups during
the three day conference and written by each group's facilitator. Because
time c onstraints prevented development of a conference report, these papers
represent the views of the participants within each issue area and are
not necessarily shared by all conference participants. While the reader
is encouraged to read the entire monograph to gain detail and understanding,
the following recommendations are presented to highlight the conference

Snyder remembered one more site in Hollister he urged me to visit.
In all his life Hollister had never gone about consciously looking upon women with a lustful eye.
Reeves and Hollister were in the bunkhouse when Bob entered it just before supper.
"Well, we will see about that afterward," compromised Hollister.
Hollister had two big frying-pans on the stove with lard heating in them.
Hollister had showing a deuce of hearts, a trey of clubs, an ace of spades, and a four of hearts.
Hollister had been silent all morning, contrary to his usual custom.
Some catastrophe had overtaken him, or impended, beside which the ugly matter Hollister laid before him was of no consequence.
Hollister and Reeves decided to try to rejoin their friends.
Hollister would sit in the evening on the low stoop before his cabin and Doris would sit beside him with her hand on his knee.

President Benigno Aquino vows to stay in typhoon-hit Tacloban
President says he will live among typhoon victims in hard-hit city until aid effort improves, amid a lack of clean water, food, shelter and power
Related topics
The United Nations expressed fear on Monday that some Philippine islands hit by a giant typhoon have not been reached 10 days after disaster struck and President Benigno Aquino said the scale of suffering "tempted him to despair".
Authorities estimate more than 3,900 people were killed when Typhoon Haiyan, one of the largest ever recorded, made landfall in the central Philippines and the sea surged ashore.
Philippine authorities, the US military and international agencies face a mounting humanitarian crisis, with the number of people displaced by the catastrophe estimated at four million, up from 900,000 late last week.
Bernard Kerblat, UN High Commissioner for Refugees representative for the Philippines, said the agency was still facing co-ordination problems and bottlenecks.
"As of now, personally, I am not so sure that we've reached every single portion of the territory where people are in need of aid," he said.
"And, in fact, I wouldn't be surprised that unfortunately that there might still be, as I'm speaking to you, day 11 of this disaster, there might be still very isolated islands."
Orla Fagan, a spokeswoman for the UN Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs, said it was a "logistical nightmare" to get relief supplies out at all.
"The size, the quantity of people that have been affected by this, this is massive, between 10 and 12.9 million people have to be assisted to recover from this. This is absolutely huge. It's like taking the whole of Belgium and trying to assist."
Aquino visited the town of Palo, just south of worst-hit Tacloban city, where engineers have salvaged generators from a flood IT park to light up the streets and town hall again.
"One is tempted to despair, but the minute I despair, then everybody, it cascades down and everybody gets hampered in their efforts," he said.
The World Bank is to extend a US$500 million emergency loan to support reconstruction of buildings that can withstand winds of 250 to 280km/h and resist severe flooding, it said in a statement.
Haiyan slammed central Philippine islands with 314km/h winds, causing tsunami-like storm surges that swallowed nearly the whole of Tacloban, once home to 220,000 people, in Leyte and Guiuan town in Eastern Samar.
Nearly 95 per cent of the deaths from the typhoon came from Leyte and Eastern Samar.
Budget Secretary Florencio Abad said the cost of rebuilding would be huge.
"It will be much more than the US$500 million (from the World Bank), even the additional US$500 million that the ADB (Asian Development Bank) is also promising to provide us," he said.

"I'm thirsty and hungry. I'm worried - no food, no house, no water, no money," said ambulance driver Estember, 50.
Thousands of other people who sought shelter under the solid roof of the Tacloban City Astrodome also have to improvise, taking water from wherever they can - a broken water pipe or a crumpled tarpaulin. The water may be salty and foul tasting but it is all many have had for days.
It took several days for aid groups to bring large quantities of water to Tacloban, the eastern Philippine city where the typhoon wreaked its worst destruction. By Friday, tankers were arriving. Philippine Red Cross workers sluiced water into enormous plastic bladders attached to taps from which people filled jerry cans, buckets, bottles and other containers.
"I'm thirsty," said Lydia Advincula, 54, who for the last few days had been placing buckets outdoors to catch rain from some of the torrential downpours that have added to the misery of homeless storm survivors.
Water provisioning should get a big boost with the recent arrival of the US Navy aircraft carrier USS George Washington, a virtual floating city with a distillation plant that can produce 1.5 million litres of fresh water per day - enough to supply 2,000 homes, according to the ship's website. Britain is sending an aircraft carrier, the HMS Illustrious, with seven helicopters and facilities to produce fresh water, Britain's Ministry of Defence said. The ship is expected to reach the area next Monday.
Longer-term water solutions will come once the crucial issues of shelter and security are settled and will probably have to wait several months, said John Saunders, of the US-based International Association of Emergency Managers.
Long-term solutions are a distant concern for Jaime Llanera, 44, as he stands in a shelter he and his family have fashioned out of broken plywood and a tarpaulin.
A single 500-millilitre bottle of mineral water delivered by the military three days earlier is all that's available for his parents, sister, brother-in-law and a friend. To stretch their supply, they've been collecting rainwater and boiling it. They are also using rainwater to clean their clothes.
The family plans to wait one more week. If help hasn't come by then, they'll try to find a way out of Tacloban and stay with relatives elsewhere.
"We have no house. We have no home. But we're still intact," Llanera said.

(CNSNews.com) - If you are thinking of traveling to the Kennedy Space Center in Florida for next month's launch of the Space Shuttle Endeavour and hope to get a good seat in the area surrounding the center, you had better think again. NASA has imposed new launch security restrictions in the wake of last month's terrorist attacks against New York and Washington.
"It's because of the terrorist threat," said NASA spokesman George Diller at the Kennedy Space Center.
In the past, the space agency has allowed those with "car passes" to drive their cars into a restricted area of the NASA causeway near Cape Canaveral to view launches. Other than news media and NASA employees, it is the closest point from which shuttle watchers can observe launches. The causeway is about seven miles from the launching pad.
Requests for such car passes usually number in the thousands and are given out on a first come, first serve basis.
But NASA officials now say they are suspending the longtime tradition because of security reasons.
"The car passes are not going to be honored. And we are not giving out any car passes right now at all for any of the future launches. However, the (Kennedy Space Center) visitor complex is still going to be taking buses out to the (NASA) Causeway and you can purchase a viewing ticket through the visitor complex to go out to the causeway," said Diller.
Shuttle watchers can pay $15 for a launch viewing ticket and be bused to a viewing area from the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex or for $35.50 they can purchase a combined launch viewing ticket and admission to the visitor complex.
"The tickets for this upcoming launch have already sold, but they will be available for the launch next February," Diller said.
He added that people entering the visitor complex now have to pass though a metal detector and have their bags searched. Also, they are no longer allowed to bring in coolers or backpacks.
When asked if NASA's new policy will be permanent, Diller said, "They really haven't said. They have said this is the way we are going to operate until the circumstances change. But they really didn't say that they were going to look at this, launch by launch. They said here's the policy that we are going to be following and we'll review it when it looks like we are under a different set of circumstances."
The terrorist threat has caused changes to NASA's usually open policy for the news media as well. Diller said journalists are no longer being allowed to work at the news media site at the Space Center because of new security restrictions. In the past, many reporters have worked at that site between launches.
The Space Shuttle Endeavour is set for launch on Thursday, November 29.

Weak Yen Will Make Kuroda's Life at BoJ Much Easier
If Masaaki Shirakawa's five-year tenure at the Bank of Japan was a bit of a battle, that of his successor, Haruhiko Kuroda, could be a doddle by comparison.
Mr. Shirakawa spent much of his time resisting government pressure to continue easing monetary policy and coping with a strong yen.
When he takes over as governor, Mr. Kuroda will...

I'm on the porch of our little house on Cat Island in the Bahamas. It's the end of the day and evening is coming on, turning the sky and the sea to the west of us a bright burnt orange, and the sky and the sea to the east of us a cool blue that deepens to purple and then to black. In the gathering darkness, in the coolness of our porch, my mother and father sit and fan the smoke from green palm leaves they're burning to shoo away the mosquitoes and the sand flies. And as she did so often when I was small, my sister Teddy takes me in her arms to rock me to sleep. While she's rocking me in her arms, she too is fanning the smoke that comes from the big pot of green leaves being burned, and she fans the smoke around me as I try to go to sleep in her arms.
That's the way the evenings always were on Cat Island. In the simplicity of that setting I always knew how I was going to get through the day and how Mom and Dad were going to get through the day and how, at the end of it, we were all going to sit on this porch, fanning the smoke of the burning green leaves.

NEW YORK (Apr. 13)
Premier Golda Meir presented a long list of gains for Israel during the past year which she said would have been impossible to accomplish "without the cooperation and support of world Jewry." Mrs. Meir made the statement in a message to Rabbi Israel Miller, president of the American Zionist Federation on the occasion of the 24th anniversary of Israel's independence to be celebrated next week. The AZF released the message today.
Mrs. Meir mentioned continuation of the cease-fire which began 19 months ago and the absorption of increasing numbers of Jews from the Soviet Union. "From the countries of the West," she said, "more and more people, including many young people, have decided to tie their future to the land of Israel and to actively participate in the great drama of building a land and a people."
The Premier also noted Israel's increased efforts to raise the living standards of the less privileged sectors of its population "by making sure that the levels of their housing, education, health and social services continue to rise and to improve." She said that "Industry and agriculture continue to develop and the fruit of our land is finding its way to more and more countries." Mrs. Meir said, "As we face the New Year which will bring us to the 25th anniversary of our renewed independence, we do so in confidence and determination and in full recognition of the challenges that lie ahead."

Day buying and selling, or the approach of acquiring and offering stocks and shares inside of a solitary trading day, has develop into a controversial theme these days. Some have touted it as a get-rich scheme that operates, even though other folks, thanks generally to scammers who assure massive returns in a quick time and the larger diploma of possibility involved, do not imagine that any considerable gain can be made from it.
Whether the potential for gain is huge or tiny, the reality is that many day traders are earning decent incomes. They are nicely-educated and properly-funded folks who use good quantities of leverage and reducing-edge trading methods to gain from the moment price tag adjustments in really fluid shares or currencies.
Due to the fact of the large diploma of possibility associated with day buying and selling, it is very best to depart it to those who know what it truly is all about. However, the advent of the World wide web has spawned the rise of 1st-time day traders. If you belong to this classification, right here are a several day investing methods you may want to study about
1. Select shares that are liquid and unstable. Mainly because of the limited time frame for day investing, very fluid shares give you the edge of shopping for the stock when it truly is at its lower and advertising it at its high. Volatility is a measure of the stock's everyday cost range. Highly unstable shares give you a probability of harnessing higher income, but it also has the probable for substantial losses.

Another approach is known as the day-to-day pivot. The following, traders just buy stocks when they are at its lowest and offer them at its significant. Scalping is one more good strategy for rookies as properly. In scalping, you merely provide your shares at their most lucrative level. This minimizes your possibility of dropping dollars.

PubMed Update
PubMed has announced two new updates. One is new functionality of its Automatic Term Mapping feature, and the other is a new Citation Sensor feature. Additionally, there is a new Advanced Search feature currently in beta mode that is being tested. Brief descriptions follow.
Automatic Term Mapping. The old Automatic Term Mapping was designed to recognize author names, journal titles, and MeSH terms when searched without field tags. This worked fine when an author or journal name was not the same as a MeSH term, but when that happened the search term was mapped to a MeSH heading and "Text Word" fields, not the author or journal fields – so the citation was missed. The new ATM has been modified to include author and journal field searches. Another ATM update relates to MeSH and journals translations. The new ATM now broadens these searches by searching individual words and multiple words in the "All Fields" field; multiple words are 'ANDed' together. Although ATM's new design expands searches, it may provide less relevant results. Using field tags in the regular PubMed search box or doing field searches in the new (Beta) Advanced Search mode can focus strategies – and results. more
Citation Sensor. Citation Sensor displays results for searches using untagged terms that are characteristic of citation searching, e.g., author names, journal titles, and publication dates (e.g., woese c 1972). Citation(s) results are highlighted in a yellow area above the search results. more
NCBI Beta Version of Advanced Search. The Advanced Search is designed to provide more ease and flexibility to create your search strategy. It can be accessed from the main PubMed search page by a link next to the search box. The PubMed Search History, Search boxes with field options (including links to indexes when available), all PubMed Limits, and the Index of Fields / Field Values for Preview / Index search are all accessible and usable on the same page – a big and welcome change! Send your comments at the bottom of the search page via "Write to the Help Desk." more
Online Clinic. There is a thirty minute NLM and the National Training Center and Clearinghouse (NTCC) online clinic on Thursday, July 17, 2008 (2:00 pm ET) to go over PubMed changes. It is limited to the first 300 that sign in that day, but will be recorded for viewing from the same page. more
Please let me know if I can help you with any questions about these updates.

Justin Bieber struck a plea deal today for his involvement in an egging incident this past January. Video surfaced of Bieber egging a neighbor's house which quickly went viral. Some of the required terms in Bieber's plea deal are having to pay his neighbor $80,900 for damages, and have to attend anger management classes for 12 weeks.
The money is chump change to Bieber. But 12 weeks of anger management? Talk about a comically justified punishment. Check out this gallery of Bieber's selfies below and let us know whether you think the court should add indecent exposure on top of the charges as well.

Volkswagen reported a healthy sales increase for July, with sales up 27.3%. The Passat sedan led the way. VW says it was the best sales for the month since 1973.
"Volkswagen has proven demand and enthusiasm for our products with over 37,000 units sold for the month, continuing the pace of double-digit sales growth for 2012," said Jonathan Browning, CEO of Volkswagen Group of America in a statement.
Volkswagen says it sold 9,007 Passats sedans. It also says its latest version of the Beetle is off to a decent start, with 2,839 sold.
The Jetta remains VW's bestseller, with 11,666 sold.
BMW Group had sales increase 4% in July, a sign that affluent customers are still spending amid an uncertain economy.
But the month's sales were slower than what the brand has seen for the first seven months of the year. Its total is 9.5% so far this year for both the BMW and Mini brands.
"High summer is typically a time for vacations rather than car buying, which makes the July result satisfying, especially with the unsteady economy and the very short supply of new models in our dealerships," said Ludwig Willisch, CEO of BMW of North America.
He also cautioned that BMW may run short of some key models "August will be the tightest month as we complete the model year transition, so we're very much looking forward to September and Fall and the much stronger availability of our popular new models," Willisch says.
