WASHINGTON, May 24 (Reuters) - The pace of U.S. bank lending slowed in the first three months of the year - the second consecutive quarter of such easing - but profits across the industry were higher, a leading bank regulator said on Wednesday.
The slowdown in fresh credit comes "as the economy approaches the end of the eighth year of an expansion marked by modest growth," Martin Gruenberg, chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), told reporters.
Banks call their failed loans 'charge-offs' and that tally increased 13.4 percent, or $1.4 billion, compared to the year-ago numbers. It was the sixth consecutive quarter that charge-offs posted a year-over-year increase, said the FDIC.
Credit card defaults and delinquent auto loans accounted for much of the charge-offs while commercial and industrial loans saw fewer defaults than a year ago.
The FDIC insures bank deposits when a lender fails and the agency's Quarterly Banking Profile gives a snapshot of the industry's health.
While the tally of failed loans increased there were signs of health for the banking industry overall.
The amount of tardy loans, called 'noncurrent', fell for the 27th time in the last 28 quarters which left the banking sector with more resources to cover the costs of future loan losses, said the FDIC.
Across the banking industry, quarterly profits rose 12.7 percent, higher than a year earlier, said the FDIC. (Reporting By Patrick Rucker; Editing by Bernard Orr)

Syncing an iPhone or iPad to a new computer using iTunes may cause some troubles with loosing data (music, photo, movies,...) or having to download all apps.
At for just apps, it does not matter since you can re-downloaded all paid apps using your iCloud account. However, if your current devices contain so much data, look at the following tips to Sync iPhone or iPad to a New Computer Without Losing Data.
Sync iPhone or iPad to a New Mac Without Losing Data.
Quit completely iTunes on both Mac PCs and make sure the iPhone or iPad is disconnected from the both Macs.
Access the Home folder and copy and move the iTunes directory from the old mac to the new mac.
Copy and move the backups from the old Mac to the New one.
~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/
Copy com.apple.iTunes.plist from old Mac, then paste to replace into the new Mac.
You now can connect your devices (iPhone or iPad) to the new Mac, then sync without loosing Data.
Syncing an iPhone or iPad with a New Windows PC without loosing DataBasically, the instruction is the same as when you deal with a Mac, but the files and folders needed to be moved from your old PC to the new one are in different locations.
C:\Users**USERNAME**\Music\iTunesC:\Users**USERNAME**\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\C:\Users**USERNAME**\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Preferences\
The USERNAME is your user account name. The iOS backups is saved in the following direction:
C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Thanks for explanation!
I had this problem back in a day.. This 'erase & sync' messages just drive me crazyThere's another workaround though, if you need to push some files to iPhone, you can use third-party apps like WALTRSo you won't loose any data at allWith its help you can put media files on iPhone or iPad, no iTunes syncThey explain it here:How to Transfer Movies to iPad or iPhone

She may only be a few weeks old, but Harper Seven is about to become the youngest person to experience Bieber Fever.
The teen pop sensation is set to serenade the newest addition to the Beckham brood at her home in Los Angeles.
Harper and her brothers Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz will be treated to a private performance from the Baby singer, who may also show up with his girlfriend, Disney star Selena Gomez.
However, it's not a one way street; Justin wants something in return from proud father David, as he explained:
"I've agreed to give the boys a concert at their house - if David Beckham gives me some private soccer lessons.
"David's an amazing dad and he told me how happy it would make the boys, so I had to say yes."
"Maybe now they have a girl, Selena will have to come too and dedicate a song to Harper.
"David tells me my records are always played in their house and David and Victoria are both really cool, so I'm happy to oblige."
Victoria gave birth to the couples first daughter on 10 July at a small hospital in LA.
David recently revealed that the name Harper was inspired by Victoria's favourite book, To Kill a Mockingbird, which was written by Harper Lee.

Maki-e Lacquer Natsume by Imada Hokusen

View Seller Profile
Kita-aoyama 3-14-1
Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan
Guest Book
This superb natsume (tea container) was made by an artist named Imada Hokusen. Natsume are usually made to preserve thin tea (whereas chaire are used for thick tea). They are traditionally made of lacquered wood.
This natsume is made in the maki-e style, where gold has been applied to the lacquer, to form, here, a rich and elaborate design of three fans"floating"about what seems to be a symbolized torrent and its waves. The fans are decorated respectively with images of bamboo, pine and plum tree branches, echoing the decorations of large screens often seen in old princely houses and temples. A noble looking natsume indeed.
The natsume is in excellent condition. It will be shipped in a wooden box, signed by Imada Hokusen.
Please let us know if you have some questions.

Situated in the Yarra Valley, one of Australia's premier cool climate wine regions and renowned regions for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Coldstream Hills' steep, close-planted vineyards lining the natural amphitheatre have become an icon of the region.
Located approximately 50 km north-east of Melbourne near the town of Coldstream, the Yarra Valley is recognised for producing some of the finest Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays in Australia.
With it's mild climate (cool winters and warm summers) and good, winter dominant rainfall, it's ideal for the production of high quality wines.
The Coldstream Hills winery sits on the top of a natural amphitheatre, the main block due north, but others turning all the way to southwest. This vineyard, along with House Block Chardonnay, also north-facing, was planted in 1985. The larger of the two estate vineyards was planted with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon in 1988.
We make a distinction between the Lower Yarra, lying roughly between the Warburton and Melba Highways and comprising the townships of Healesville and Yarra Glen, and the Upper Yarra, some 30 kms upstream and to the South East. The Upper Yarra is at a higher altitude, is cooler and receives higher rainfall than the Lower Yarra. Harvest normally commences 1 to 2 weeks later in the Upper Yarra and wines are characteristically elegant and finely structured compared with the more robust or opulent styles typical of the Lower Yarra.

Lifestyle | iPhone, iPad
Director: Silvana Annicchiarico Scientific consultation: Alberto Alessi Laying out and graphic project for the exhibition and catalogue: Martí Guixé Triennale Design Museum and D'Uva Workshop present the ufficial application for visiting the 4th edition of the Museum entitled the "Dream Factoryâ€. People, ideas, business and parodies of Italian design factories, in programme at the Milan Triennale from the 5th of April 2011until the 26th of February 2012 During the 50th anniversary of the Salone del Mobile, the Triennale Design Museum dedicates its 4th edition to the people, companies and projects that have contributed to the creation of the Italian design system from after the war through to today and which have decreed the success of the Salone del Mobile throughout the world. Through a selection of iconic objects, a female voice will accompany you along the route of this exhibition that aims to illustrate the very particular activity and also profound nature of what Alberto Alessi defined as " Italian Design Factoriesâ€, that move along a line that oscillates from functional value, symbolic value and poetic value of the objects produced, and on the other hand narrates the great capacity and ability of these "research laboratories†which are such as to attract foreign designers who choose to work in Italy recognizing the excellence in the production. The exhibition route oscillates between two poles: on one side a profound and precise theoretic thought that derives from reflections carried forward by the curator on these themes over the years, on the other, a poetic, artistic and fairy tale method of narration that borrows from the imagination of Lewis Carroll and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. The laying out project of Martí Guixé has been conceived as one of the adventures of Alice in Wonderland : the objects enter into a dialogue with the designers and the stories of the great business men are mingled with their personal biographies in an atmosphere that is playful and rich with emotion and suggestion. An extraordinary opportunity to discover some of the most famous Italian design objects through a new point of view. The multi media guide is available in English and Italian. The application is compatible with iPhone and iPod Touch and necessitates a 3.0 or successive version.

Air Supply Tickets
Air Supply Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5 based on 0 customer reviews 100 0
Since the mid-1970s, the name Air Supply has been synonymous with some of the most memorable pop rock ballads of the twentieth century. Originally formed as a trio, Air Supply has been primarily helmed by singer Russell Hitchcock and singer-songwriter-guitarist Graham Russell over the last few decades. Though Air Supply's self titled debut album achieved gold status in their home country of Australia, it wasn't until Arista Records took notice of the duo's single "Lost in Love" in late 1979 that the band started to really take off. After "Lost in Love" was released in the United States, it shot to the top of the charts, peaking at number 3 on Billboard. The similarly titled album yielded a total of three top 5 singles including "Every Woman in the World" and its biggest hit, "All Out of Love". Air Supply's success continued over their next several albums and they produced several more top singles including "Here I Am", "Even The Nights Are Better", "Two Less Lonely People In The World", and the band's biggest success ever, "The One That You Love" which went all the way to number one on the charts. For a band that recently turned forty, Air Supply continues to not only perform the songs that made them famous, but have also reinvented themselves with material like "Desert Sea Sky", a venture into dance music genre that has clubs pumping up patrons all over the world. Armed with an eclectic array of hits, Air Supply appeals to fans of every generation.

With the final debate coming to our city this week, this may apply to you.
According to a new survey, 38% of us have LOST SLEEP over the election . . . and another 28% have had a dream or a nightmare about it. That means two-thirds of us have had it affect our sleep in one way or another.
One way you can help yourself is by avoiding politics once you're in bed. The survey found that people who watched the last debate in bed were 30% more likely to have a sleep issue over the election.

Angular Rear Exterior View - 2010 Mazda MX-5 Miata 2-door Convertible PRHT Man Grand TouringEnlarge Photo
2010 Mazda Miata
The quintessential roadster, the nimble MX-5 Miata hasn't been leaving dealer lots as quickly as Mazda had expected. Some dealers are entertaining offers on the little ragtop. TrueCar says the Miata has among the highest price flexibility of any model this summer. That means that you could pay full price, or get a significant discount. It's up to you, and your willingness to negotiate and compare prices between dealers. One tip to help you at the bargaining table -- Mazda is offering a $2,000 factory-to-dealer incentive on the Miata this month. That's not the same as a rebate offered directly to the buyer, since Mazda will pay the cash to the dealership if the sale goes through, but it means you're bargaining with a little bit of house money.

Hi there have you had any experience with the Eunice Trading Company? Are they legitamite or a scam - they have place a big order shipment to Cameroon. Thanks Melissa
Good morning,
I have been contacted by Eunice Trading couple of weeks ago. They are asking for big quantity of silicone for Cameroun.
They are working as an agent getting x% commission in return. The customer is "ASSOCIATION AU SERVICE DE LA HUMANITAIRE, in 14 RUE FOCHE AKWA DOUALA CAMEROON", which makes it even more extrange. Why does one humanitarian association could need such a big amount of silicone?
hello, even i have recd a mail fom them for a very big order. Just want to know if they are fraud or genuine. I'll be thankful if any one lets me know this as soon as possible.

And now, a word about buffering: a buffer is an area drawn around a feature at a uniform distance. It usually represents an important area (maybe a floodplain, a protected species habitat, or a service area for a city). The features which lay inside the buffer have different status than the features which lay outside the buffer.

The latest censorship measures that our glorious leader of the nanny state is implementing have largely gone unnoticed due to the somewhat disproportional
reporting of the royal baby. To the cries of 'think of the children', that age old tactic of causing hysteria and muddying the issue: David Cameron has declared that the UK by default will block all pornographic material...
But only on the internet as magazines with political power, like the Sun, have been left to their own devices. This alone shows that this is a political move and not a moral one being enacted by the glorious leader, in order to gain votes amongst the right wing of his party who do not understand the Internet and are therefore afraid of what they don't understand.
reporting of the royal baby. To the cries of 'think of the children', that age old tactic of causing hysteria and muddying the issue: David Cameron has declared that the UK by default will block all pornographic material...
But only on the internet as magazines with political power, like the Sun, have been left to their own devices. This alone shows that this is a political move and not a moral one being enacted by the glorious leader, in order to gain votes amongst the right wing of his party who do not understand the Internet and are therefore afraid of what they don't understand.
Following this I Alexandre Rodriguez have taken it upon myself to explain to everyone why this plan is A) stupid and B) completely pointless.
5 Reasons why it shouldn't happen.
Perhaps first and foremost what I should point out is that this is Country wide censorship of the Internet. When did the UK become China or the Middle East? This policy lands the UK in dangerous territory how long will it be before our leader decides which political material is appropriate for children? How long before people have to pay money to a company for their website to be on a white list?
2) Criminalisation of sexuality
Perhaps one of the most dangerous trends emerging out of this will be the criminalisation of sexuality. As stated by multiple people in support of this legislation many people guilty of sex crimes and child abuse had "normal" pornography on their computers. This is a classic case of post hoc ergo propter hoc. You would be hard pressed to find a significant proportion of people in the computer generation who have not seen porn and were not all out committing sex crimes. In fact it has been shown that where there is greater access to porn the instances of sex crimes reduces. Sex is part of the human experience after centuries of treating it as base and inhuman it's time we as a society had a grown up attitude to sex.
3) Perv Lists
The criminalisation of sexuality in itself is scary, combined with the inevitable "Perv" lists is a terrifying thought. As the access to porn is being blocked unless you "opt in" it means that somewhere ISP's will have lists of people that want to access porn. How long will it be before there is a cry to 'think of the children' and make these lists public so parents can protect their children from the "sexual deviants" of society. It is a dangerous road our glorious and noble leader is taking us down.
4) Double Standards
Saying that the internet needs to be restricted so that kids don't stumble across porn is like saying that the government needs to pay to get a lock installed on every parents bedroom in case their kids walk into the room and accidentally sees them having sex. But this should be obvious to everyone; the parents are responsible for that matter. The main question I want answered, is why the print media gets a pass on providing for our sex crazed teenagers.
5) Not wanted
The most curious aspect of this plan of Cameron's is that it is wanted only 21% of parents wanted this measure introduced. So who exactly is this meant to be for?
Now that I have briefly discussed why these plans should not go ahead lets look at why these plans serve no purpose other than to alienate and criminalise large amounts of society.
5 reasons why it won't work.
First and foremost the obvious point about why this filter will not work is that any VPN will get around it. The vast majority of you reading this will know what a VPN is and of that number I would hazard a guess that a decent proportion of you have one, and you like me are wondering why no one in the mainstream media seems to be mentioning this glaring hole in Cameron's plan. For those of you that don't know what a VPN is, if your British I would say it's time to learn. A VPN is essentially a link established through your ISP to another system in another country which then access what you point your browser to. This bypasses all the filters put in place. Its effectiveness can be demonstrated with how quickly after The Pirate Bay was banned in the UK its traffic was at an all time high.
Type into google free VPNs and you will see how massively futile this proposal is.
Go now... this article will still be here when you get back!
The Majority of internet users in countries where Porn is banned have a VPN for the purpose of accessing porn amongst other banned content.
2) Proxies
Ah proxies that age old source of internet anonymity. Similar in many superficial ways to a VPN a Proxy acts as an intermediary between the User and the desired content bypassing filters. This can also be seen in full effect with the Pirate bay. After the ban of The pirate bay, hundreds of proxies sprung up overnight to reconnect people to The bay and did so in huge numbers. As one proxy is closed down by the government and blocked, hundreds more spring up in its place. It is the Virtual equivalent of battling a Hydra.
3) Technologically Savy Kids
First and foremost- really? An ISP based filter? Each generation of kids are become more and more technologically savvy. In fact, the Government is trying to increase the technological skills in our children so that they can meet demands from the industry. So what is going to happen in lessons at school when things such as VPNs and proxies, key elements in the modern work place, need to be taught? What happens when the kids need to learn how things such as filters work? Do you seriously think that teenage boys are not going to use the crucial IT skills they are developing at school and in every day life to look at boobs on the internet? Perhaps we should ban the teaching of crucial skills that may lead to teenagers bypassing filters. The scary thought is, that it wouldn't surprise me. It must be easier and cheaper just to get parents to sit down and have a open and frank discussion about internet porn with their kids like mine did.
4) Ineffective filters.
Filters are essentially a list of no go sights that are enforced across a network. As with all lists the biggest problem is what goes on it and what doesn't. The Majority of content on the internet is porn and more is being added every day. How does the Government plan on keeping this list up to date? The staffing alone to generate and maintain this list will be huge, even if workers are using software to determine what sites to ban and what not to. The software in itself is going to cause problems; how will it determine from sites that provide sexual health advise and porn? What about some of our favourite mainstream television shows? Is True Blood's website going to be banned because there are naked sex scenes in the show? What about the legitimate sites that host shows like that, are Netflix, 4od and BBC Iplayer going to be black listed? What about sites like Cosmopolitan and Men's Health are they going to be banned? Obviously not because they'll issue all kinds of lawsuits and send armies of lawyers to solve the problem, but what about the people that host sites of a similar nature that can't afford an army of lawyers? Do they just have to shut up and put up with being banned? That's the problem with censorship, it effects those with the smallest voice the most.
Porn is part of Human nature. Our desire to see images of that nature is hard coded into our brains as a result of the biological imperative to reproduce. People, especially sexually frustrated teenagers, will always seek out pornography and while there is a demand for it- it will always exist. Something the prohibitionists don't seem to understand. The technological world will meet the challenge the Government is issuing and porn will be just as easily accessible as it has always been. Even when porn was illegal in America long before the internet, people and teenagers were accessing it. If this is as effective as the Government hopes, spoiler it wont be, it's just going to move porn back to paper and it's going to go back to the days of old where kids have physical porn stashes instead of virtual ones.
To finish- whilst the cries of 'the children, the children' echo our Orwellian country, it is important to have a mature, sensible discussion on this issue before decisions are made in an attempt to seize votes.

Awarded Best In Show in Artopia!
|Posted on August 3, 2016 at 8:00 AM
"The Fruit is Not the Seed"
Best in Show
I am so proud to announce that I have won Best of Show with my painting "The Fruit is Not the Seed". I am so fortunate to have been a part of Big Bend Cares in Tallahassee, Florida.
Artopia is a great Art Show Fundraising event that this year raised $97,000!
Big Bend Cares raises funding for those living with HIV in the Tallahassee area to help with things like medical costs. I was honored to have been chosen as "Best in Show" and filled with giddiness because both paintings that I donated were sold. I hope that the people who own that work will enjoy it as much as i enjoyed making it! To find out more about Artopia or to donate to Big Bend Cares. Check out their website below.
I am always searching for a deep connetion to my surroundings. As a child, I can remember always looking to find meaning in everything. I was a spiritual child. I always knew that I wanted me to be an artist. I had my doubts as I grew up and had the world to contend with. I had very encouraging parents, but unfortunately, I lost my faith in their opinion at an early age. I remember thinking that they only knew that I was persistent with my efforts at improving my drawing skills, but that they don't understand what I am really pursuing as an artist. Let's just say, that I became a master at patting myself on the back for my accomplishments. I don't remember needing approval for anything. That attitude is still pervasive in my work. I basically have no one's voice but my own in my head, and my biggest challenge as a grown up artist, is to calm down and ask for help.
"The artistic soul connects to the world in a different way. It is always interesting to see what kind of representation or interpretation the artist creates. It will always be ever-changing though, because nature and life are always ever-changing. The artist interprets and depicts the world as he or she sees it, feels it, and knows it to be."

Why The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Could Be The Definitive Spider-Man Film
Reasons why The Amazing Spider-Man 2 could get it perfect
Filed Under: "
So from what I can judge, reactions to Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man were very, very mixed. Some people preferred it to the Raimi version, some people thought it was a piece of s**t and others are just "meh" towards anything Spider-Man related arguably due to the character's over-exposure these days. Being probably one of the biggest Spider-Man fans on the planet, I personally can't get enough of Spidey on the big screen but I feel that a movie incarnation has yet to be perfected, although I do think that the first two Raimi films and Marc Webb's reboot all came very close to hitting the nail on the head.
My personal stance on Spider-Man as a character is that he is the greatest superhero ever created without a doubt. This comes down to one factor for me: he's relatable. When Stan and Steve first debuted the Webhead, readers immediately took to him because underneath his mask he was just a regular guy with regular problems like them, unlike characters like Superman that were essentially archetypes. I know that everyone loves Batman because of his dark, tortured, badass persona but come on, even if he has no superpowers he's a billionaire playboy at the peak of physical perfection with a genius intellect and unlimited wealth and resources, who can relate to that? I see Batman as the cool kid at school that everyone idolizes whereas Spider-Man is the underdog that constantly gets overshadowed. That analogy was certainly represented at the box office last year, as while The Amazing Spider-Man was a success, it wasn't the highest grossing superhero film of 2012, getting overshadowed by the admittedly awesome The Avengers and the somewhat overrated (in my opinion) The Dark Knight Rises.
Say what you will about Marc Webb's reboot but I feel that it's the best Spider-Man film to date. This is because it retained all the elements that the Raimi films got right while also adding new elements that those films were lacking. For example, they made Spidey a wise-ass like he is in the comics (hallelujah!) and the addition of mechanical webshooters allowed Peter to display his intelligence and ingenuity. The reboot also generally handled the characters a lot better than the Raimi films did, particularly the love interest; Gwen Stacy was intelligent and could handle herself without needing Spider-Man to save her all the time, whereas Mary Jane, while having some depth to her character, was much more of a typical damsel in distress. Also, Peter's transition into a hero is fleshed out a lot more, giving us more understanding of his character and motivations. All the other characterizations were spot on as well and the casting was pitch perfect. Unfortunately, The Amazing Spider-Man had a lot of things going against it; not least of which was the terrible marketing campaign that spoiled far too much and promised an "untold story" that the film ultimately didn't deliver. In addition to this, the rushed script development meant that the villain and overall story were a little generic and the fact that the Raimi films were still fresh in audience's minds made people feel like they were being fed the same stuff.
So why do I think that the sequel to ASM could turn out to be the ultimate Spider-Man film (I may have intended a pun there)? Well from what we've seen from it so far, it definitely appears to be on exactly the right track. For starters, the new costume design seems to be pleasing fans across the board. When I first saw the new suit, I had very mixed feelings. I felt that although it was more faithful to the design seen in the comics than any movie suit so far it was a huge step backwards stylistically. A lot of people disliked the suit from The Amazing Spider-Man because of how different it was but I thought that the new modern take worked really well and the texture of the suit made it look incredible on screen. With the sequel, it seems as though the studio have reacted towards the negative criticism the first suit attracted and have forced Webb to go back to a much more traditional design, harkening back to the Raimi years. It doesn't look to me like much imagination went into this design, although one thing I find interesting is the fact that the new design incorporates the much larger eyes that are often seen in the comics, especially in the Ultimate series. Whether or not they'll look too cartoony on screen remains to be seen but they look pretty cool in the set photos. Overall, while I still feel that the suit from the first film looked way cooler, the new Spidey definitely resembles the one we all know and love from years gone by (despite the fact that his new radically different duds will create a rather distracting continuity issue).
Now onto the cast and characters: well the first major new addition we heard about was Jamie Foxx, hot from his marvelous performance in Django, as the supervillain Electro; a very interesting choice. While the character of Electro in the comics has never been particularly interesting and has usually been a throwaway villain who works for other, more prominent baddies, I think Foxx is a really good actor and should be able to make the character his own (and it's been made apparent that he'll be based on the Ultimate version of the character so thankfully he won't be wearing that silly green and yellow outfit). Another earlier piece of casting information was that Martin Sheen would be returning as Uncle Ben, which raises a few questions: will his appearance be in flashback or will he return from the grave? (I think it's safe to assume flashback) How will it fit into the story? Well as they say, only time will tell.
The next piece of casting news that raised eyebrows was the casting of Shailene Woodley as none other than Mary Jane Watson. This got fans thinking that her character would be set up to be Peter's next love interest after Gwen inevitably kicks the bucket. Interestingly, Woodley's shoot only lasted for a few weeks meaning that her part will be pretty small. This is probably a good thing as it means that the plot hopefully won't get too caught up in the love triangle business, which was one of the many problems people had with Raimi's Spider-Man 3. Then we heard that another blast from the past character from the Spidey mythos was being cast in the new film-verse, Harry Osborn, and that he was to be played by Chronicles's Dane Dehaan. Admittedly I've not actually seen Chronicle but his character looked pretty brooding in the trailers which could work well for Harry Osborn, especially if they explore Harry's tortured, self destructive side as seen in his drug addiction arc in the comics. It was rumored for a while (due to a misinterpreted Marc Webb tweet) that Harry would become Venom in this film but this has since been debunked, which I was glad to hear as I'd hate for the film series to start taking cues from the terrible Ultimate Spider-Man animated series (don't know if any of you have seen it but it really is an abomination of children's entertainment).
Then things started to get rather intriguing. Paul Giamatti was reportedly cast as the Rhino, which caused some people's heads to explode. While people generally view Giamatti as a brilliant actor, some question his suitability for the role as the dimwitted, thuggish villain (although a theory that I support is that he'll be playing a Rhino similar to the Ultimate version, which would offer a very different take on the character). Apart from the pretty novel casting choice however, this info got people concerned that the second film could end up suffering from villain overload just as Spider-Man 3 did. These fears were only made worse when Oscar winner Chris Cooper was cast as Norman Osborn, adding a possible appearance of the Green Goblin to the mix. Thankfully though, it has since been made clear that Norman will not become the Goblin in the second film so we'll only have two villains to focus on, and it's likely that the Rhino will simply be a throwaway villain that Spidey tackles before Electro arrives on the scene. We've also got Colm Feore (how the hell do you pronounce that name??) and Felicity Jones cast in as yet unspecified roles which adds an air of mystery, although they will most likely be very minor parts (Felicity Jones couldn't be playing Black Cat, could she?) In any case, with such stellar actors being added to an already impressive lineup, I think it's safe to say that we'll be seeing a lot of first class performances in this flick.
Performances aside however, the aspect that should hopefully make this film will be the story. While very few plot details have been released so far, what we do know is that it will be around the time of Peter's graduation from High School and he will be battling Oscorp employee Max Dillon when he becomes Electro after some kind of accident. Up until recently that was all we knew, but someone reporting on ComicBookMovie.com has revealed a supposedly legit plot detail that while many of us would have probably seen coming is still a pretty major spoiler: apparently Gwen is gonna be pushing up daisies (dead) by the end of the film. My first thought was, "what?! Surely it's too soon, shouldn't they be saving that for the third one?" However, I think if they construct the narrative well enough, it could add some real depth to Spider-Man's onscreen journey and capture the more tragic side of his story seen a lot in the comics. Also, very interestingly, if she does get killed off in this film it means that the Green Goblin won't be the one to kill her (at least not directly as Norman may very well be pulling strings from behind the scenes). This is yet another indication to me that Webb is taking a lot of cues from the Ultimate comics as Gwen was killed by a different villain in that series as well (Carnage, to be precise, although I'm 99.99999999% certain he won't be in ASM2).
To sum up, I love what Webb did with The Amazing Spider-Man; although it wasn't exactly an untold story, I personally feel that he told it better than Raimi did as he explored parts of the hero's personality and psyche that are integral to his character and that were not fleshed out enough in the original films. And now that the retold origin story is out of the way and he's got freedom to explore new ground I think he has the potential to deliver us a web-slinging masterpiece (as long as he doesn't f**k up by copying Spider-Man 2). So what can we expect from ASM 2 if all goes well? I'm holding out hope that we'll get a movie adaptation that is very faithful to the source material and will give us the fully-fledged Spider-Man character we've always wanted to see on film.
Whatever the second installment in this refreshed Spidey franchise holds in store for us, one thing is certain: we could not have asked for a more appropriately named director.

Rainbow Chip Brownies
These rich and simple Rainbow Chip Brownies are chewy and fudgy made even sweeter with chocolate frosting spread on while the brownies are still warm! Topped with Rainbow Chips makes them adorable and colorful, like Cosmic Brownies only WAY better!
My kiddo loves Cosmic Brownies. You know, the ones by Little Debbie. I could have literally baked 3 pies, 2 cakes and a batch of sugar cookies and if there are Cosmic Brownies in our pantry my littles will bypass all the homemade goodness for strangely glossy brownies inside cellophane wrappers. They have magic in them for sure.
Clearly the obvious choice here is to not PURCHASE the Cosmic Brownies in the first place. Yes, duh, I get it…but I feel like Little Debbie is an essential part of the childhood experience. I mean Oatmeal Cream Pies and Star Crunch were regulars in my lunchbox and I think I turned out pretty normal-ish. So yes, they do make an appearance in our pantry from time to time only to be devoured by my alien children in a day and a half.
But since Little Debbie makes me feel like a Bitter Betty when my kids go for her treats over mine I decided to come up with my own Cosmic magic situation. Turns out the answer is frosting and Rainbow Chips. Isn't it always?
These super simple brownies are a play on my kid's favorite brownie recipe topped with a trillion little candy coated chips. I have to say all the colors make them pretty irresistible.
The brownie batter is simple. I use a mixer but you absolutely don't have to…
Just spread the brownie batter in the pan and bake them up. They don't take long.
Then make your quick frosting and spread that on the brownies when they're warm. Trust me on this…the frosting will partially melt into the brownies and you'll get omg deliciousness.
Then sprinkle rainbow chips all over. Do this immediately, so they stick to the frosting!
Let them cool and they slice up like a dream…
My kids totally approved.Print

Indira Talwani. (Photo: Diego M. Radzinschi/ALM)
Lawyers who sued Stryker Orthopaedics over recalled hip implant components wanted a single judge to oversee about 30 cases filed in the past year. At the top of their list was U.S. District Judge Frank Donovan in Minnesota—an obvious choice, having overseen thousands of cases brought over another Stryker hip implant that settled for $1 billion.
But on April 5, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation instead chose U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani in Boston, a relative newcomer to the federal bench who has never before handled a multidistrict litigation proceeding, or MDL.
In its order, the panel noted that five of the Stryker cases were already pending in her courtroom. Further, it said, she had "not yet had an opportunity to preside over an MDL docket."
Meet the Next Generation of MDL Judges
A look at eight judges who are handling their first multidistrict litigation assignments and why they're likely to be tapped again.
That's become an increasingly common phrase in orders from the MDL panel, which in 2016 transferred cases to 15 first-time MDL judges, according to a review of the panel's assignments conducted by The National Law Journal. It's the first time in at least five years that the majority of judges chosen to oversee an MDL had never done it before.
Among the new initiates to the complex world of MDL litigation are Obama appointees Lorna Schofield in Manhattan Ketanji Brown Jackson in Washington, D.C.; Vince Chhabria in San Francisco; and Brian Martinotti in New Jersey. Notably, as the baton passes to a new generation of MDL judges, more women and minority jurists have been drawn into their ranks.
The widening circle is no fluke, said U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer of the Northern District of California, one of seven federal judges from across the country who comprise the MDL panel.
"There has been an effort to reach out to newer judges, to bring them into the MDL process, so as to give a greater MDL experience to the judiciary as a whole," said Breyer, a veteran MDL judge himself. "You need a skill set in order to handle very large cases, but the only way you acquire that skill set is through experience. We look for MDL judges who are new to take smaller cases, to acquire the skill set, so eventually they'll get to the larger case."
Multidistrict litigation is a significant part of the federal court system—both in terms of potential recovery and the demands it puts on judges. As of April 17, there were 236 MDLs encompassing more than 131,000 cases, according to the MDL panel's statistics. Most involve mass torts, antitrust cases and consumer class actions.
"These cases have a tremendous impact on society," said John Rabiej, director of the Center for Judicial Studies at Duke University Law School, which provides best practices guidelines to MDL judges.
Unlike individual cases, multidistrict litigation deals with dozens—sometimes, tens of thousands—of lawsuits that can drag on for years. It's a job that historically has gone to judges who've been there, done that.
But former MDL Chairman U.S. District Judge John Heyburn of the Western District of Kentucky acknowledged before his death in 2015 that the dramatic growth of MDLs required the panel to look beyond its small list of veteran judges.
"He launched the policy of spreading it out," Rabiej said. "You can't expect the same judges to handle these, particularly the big ones."
More MDLs are now going to judges with no experience handling them. Many have only been on the bench for a few years. Jamie Dodge, director of the Institute for Complex Litigation & Mass Claims at Emory University School of Law, which provides training programs for MDL judges, said new judges "are often willing to explore new ways of approaching the complexity of MDL, challenging traditional assumptions held by the more experienced judges."
To be sure, judges could decline an assignment. But few of them do because MDLs come with some "prestige," Rabiej said.
"Most judges would agree to that and accept that [it] is a prestigious appointment," he said.
U.S. District Judge Vince Chhabria of the Northern District of California, who was handed his first MDL in October, is overseeing dozens of suits against Monsanto Co. over it RoundUp herbicide. He said many federal judges find themselves confident enough after a few years to take on a new challenge like an MDL, which comes with "more balls in the air."
"That's time when I think a lot of us feel we are capable of taking on new challenges," said Chhabria, who was confirmed in 2014. "We've begun to get a grip on the basics, and therefore we can feel capable of taking on new challenges. That's probably what you'd see from this group in 2016 that got MDLs for the first time."
Over the past 16 months, many newer judges edged out veteran MDL judges in being assigned cases. The new MDL judges also are more ethnically and gender diverse—seven of the recent selectees are women and six are minorities—though it's unclear whether that's by design or because the federal bench as a whole has changed.
The evolution could help open doors for plaintiffs lawyers looking to break into lucrative lead roles, which have also tended to go to repeat players who are overwhelmingly male and white.
Plaintiffs attorney Karen Barth Menzies of San Francisco's Girard Gibbs said members of the MDL panel, including Chairwoman Sarah Vance, a judge at the Eastern District of Louisiana, have talked about diversifying the bench.
"The panel has spoken numerous times about the need to, even with the presenters to the panel, have more women and minorities presented to the panel itself," she said. "Lawyers feel that's been a consistent theme we've heard from the panel and recognize that, as well, would be a positive development or going in the right direction."
Lawyers are becoming aware of the changes, sometimes pitching a new judge for an MDL in their briefs before the panel.
One of the most common names to pop up in the last year was U.S. District Judge Brian Martinotti, who joined New Jersey's federal bench in July. In briefs before the panel, lawyers noted his prior experience as one of three judges in New Jersey state court handling mass torts—a role that often required him to coordinate with federal MDL judges.
"Although it is unusual for a newly appointed judge to have experience and understanding of mass torts in general, here we not only have a highly skilled and well qualified jurist, but also one with extensive and successful experience in the highly complex pharmaceutical mass tort field," wrote Hunter Shkolnik, a partner at New York's Napoli Shkolnik, in a Nov. 23 brief in the MDL involving diabetes drug Invokana. The panel transferred the cases to Martinotti on Dec. 7.
Breyer said the panel attempts to spread MDLs across a wide range of districts, as long as they are convenient to the parties. Many of the new judges in 2016 were in districts that historically have had few MDLs, such as the Northern District of Florida.
Lawyers suggest potential MDL judges for a host of other reasons, such as whether they're already handling one of the cases at issue, the convenience of their courthouse or their district's docket conditions.
The panel considers some of the same factors. But it's notoriously secret about its decisions in order to maintain objectivity and impartiality. The panel's transfer orders are often no more than two pages long, with a cryptic few sentences identifying its reasons for picking a particular district or judge.
Breyer shed some light on the process. He said he also looks at the calendar of a particular judge, who could be too busy, and the size and complexity of an MDL, some of which are "no more complicated than a run-of-the-mill case."
Then there's the judge herself.
"The test we use is do we think that this particular judge can handle an MDL?" he said. "Based upon the general reputation of the judge, based on the judge's workload, based on anything we know about the judge's work ethic. Is this judge a suitable judge to handle this MDL?"

I'm not one to decorate for every little holiday, but there sure are a lot of cupid-themed ideas for Valentine's Day! Here are my favorites:
2. Recycled wood love sign, Etsy, $42
3. Burlap pillows, World Market, $29
4. Red felt runner, Target, $9.99
5. DIY Valentine bunting, The Crafty Nest
That paper doily bunting is making me reconsider decorating for Valentine's Day, and it reminds me of Laura's doilied cabinet doors. Maybe I'll whip up a fun craft with paper doilies this weekend… I'll keep you posted!
Anyone else decorating for lover's day?

At First Congregational United Church of Christ we have two primary goals through which all of our children's ministries flow: First, that every child in our ministries knows that they are deeply and wonderfully loved by God. Second, that each child knows that their church loves them and stands by them no matter what as children and throughout their lives. We never stop learning about God and it is often our children who have some of the most profound insights!
Our wonderful Nursery, held in room 202 for our infant – 2 year olds, is open every Sunday from 9:30 a.m. until the end of the worship service. Our nursery room has toys galore and two loving staff members waiting to greet your little one.
Pre-school Sunday school is held in room 205 for our 3 year old – Kindergarten children. We use a delightful new curriculum called Deep Blue. Children follow three fun characters as they explore the Bible stories through a DVD story, children's Bible, arts and crafts, games, and songs.
Elementary Sunday school is divided into two classes -- the 1st – 2nd graders and the 3rd – 5th graders. Both classes use a rotation curriculum based on multiple intelligences. One particular Bible story is taught per month. Each week the story is presented in one of five ways through: Arts and Crafts, Storytelling/Drama, Games, Music, or Science. These two classes rotate between room 203 and the Chapel. One of the two instructors for each class will meet the children in the parlor following the Children's Conversation and escort them to the Chapel for a short gathering and then on to one of the classrooms.
Please note that for each of these programs, parents are required sign their children in and/or out of the classrooms as part of our safe church policies and a cell phone number provided in case of emergency.
To register for the nursery/Sunday school classes contact Jan Barker at (630) 968-0358, ext. 223 or email@example.com

Hubby and I and fur kids are heading down to Pismo for an early Memorial day weekend in hopes of avoiding the crowds ( May 25-27). It will our first time there. I checked old threads for dining recs but most of them are outdated by several years. Any suggestions for casual dining? So far it looks like Splash Cafe for chowder, Cracked Crab for buckets and Giuseppe's express for pizza and salads (can't find a menu for their express locations, I am assuming the pizza and salads on their regular menu can be ordered at their express location as well). We are also thinking about heading over to Jocko's in Nipomo for a good steak. Have we missed anything? We are not looking for fancy....just good!

An isodicentric X chromosome (46, X idic (X)(pter leads to qter::qter leads to pter)) with a single functioning centromere was found in all lymphocytes and fibroblasts examined from a female patient 171.5 cm in height presenting with primary amenorrhoea. Replication of the abnormal chromosome was consistently late. In some cells the pattern was asymmetrical but the asymmetry did not appear to relate to the position of the active centromere.

FONTANA, Calif. - Kurt Busch put himself in position to win Saturday's season-ending NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Motorola 200 at California Speedway. His Exide Batteries Ford crew sealed the deal. Busch, getting a seven-race jumpstart on next year's Roush Racing NASCAR Winston Cup Series program while completing his one-year -cup of coffee- in a Ford F-150 truck, showed the savvy of a veteran. Despite winning his fourth Bud Pole of the campaign, the 22-year-old Nevadan went conservative after leading the 200-mile race's first lap to hang around the front of the field waiting for the final laps to play out. He sat third behind Bryan Reffner and Andy Houston when Chuck Hossford's engine let go with 20 laps remaining, bringing out the event's third and final caution. The field headed for pit road where Reffner's chance to win two in a row evaporated while speedy service by Busch's Matt Chambers-headed gang put its driver in the lead. Busch led the rest of the way, building the advantage to nearly two seconds before an untimely slide in Turn 2 of the final lap enabled Houston to close to six truck lengths - 0.775 seconds. Busch, however, righted the ship to claim his fourth win of 2000 and third from the pole. He won $51,435 plus a $10,000 pole/win bonus from series sponsor Craftsman. The winning average speed, 144.26 mph, was fastest in NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series history. The previous mark, 141.844, was established at the two-mile superspeedway when Jack Sprague won the 1998 edition of the $554,037 event. The victory also cemented Busch's No. 2 finishing position, behind Roush teammate Greg Biffle, in the 2000 championship chase. Biffle, who led a record-setting 19th time during the season, wound up with a 230-point title edge - two points fewer than the margin by which Sprague decisioned Rich Bickle in 1997. It marked the first time that one owner has captured the top two spots in the NCTS standings. -I'm so excited to get this win for the team,- said Busch who erased most of Biffle's rookie records during a season in which he won more than $600,000 and posted 13 top-five and 16 top-10 finishes. -The guys were all depending on me to get the $10,000 bonus from Craftsman to help out with their Christmas shopping so the should be happy about that. -I really wanted to win this last race and go out with a bang.- Houston, who'll also be a NASCAR Winston Cup Series rookie in 2001, finished where his CAT Rental Store Chevrolet started in the 36-team lineup. Joe Ruttman, runnerup in the DANA Corporation Dodge a year ago, fell to third under Houston's lap 92 pressure. Sprague's GMAC Financial Service Chevy came from 11th to take fourth-place while Biffle settled for fifth in an up-and-down afternoon of racing. Reffner retained the sixth-place he occupied after his disappointing pit stop. Terry Cook booted K Automotive's Dodge to the No. 7 slot, followed by Marty Houston, Featherlite Southwest Series point leader Matt Crafton and Jimmy Hensley. Only 10 drivers completed all 100 laps after an untimely second caution, when David Starr's Case Construction Equipment Dodge dropped fluid in Turn 4 on the 42nd circuit, got the better of several teams who'd already taken service under the green flag. Among them were Dennis Setzer (11th at the finish), Rick Crawford (12th), Ken Schrader (17th) and Mike Wallace. The latter was listed in 32nd position after the engine of his Team ASE Racing Ford went south after 60 circuits. The event's first half was largely uneventful at the front as Houston headed laps two through 35, then pitted for a pair of right side tires and handed the spot to Biffle. Marty Houston and Ruttman cycled to the top but the spotlight, at mid-race, was on Reffner's fleet Silverado which had carved its way from a poor qualifying run of 21st. Reffner passed Ruttman on the 52nd lap in Turn 3 and motored off with Ruttman, Houston and Busch in tow. Biffle fell to nearly a lap down after taking left side Goodyears on the 58th circuit but could have been in position to win had the remaining distance run green - which would have forced his rivals to likewise pit for fuel. Hossford's stall dictated otherwise, although Biffle picked up two positions on pit road and added three more by passing Marty Houston, Reffner and Cook during the final racing segment. Earlier, he was nearly caught on pit road by the lap 43 caution and had to make two trips down pit road. -I think that we have probably lost the last three races due to just bad luck in the pits,- he lamented. Biffle, however, was luckier than Reffner whose truck - experiencing a clutch problem - lurched forward during his last pit stop, forcing the crew to reposition the jack. -We had twice the truck we had yesterday (and) that was our race to give away,- said Reffner. Busch, meanwhile, nearly had a glitch of his own. Inexplicably, his Ford slid up the east turn banking on the final lap - possibly finding fluid that also may have claimed B.A. Wilson's Dodge a few seconds later. -I was just fortunate enough to have a decent cushion that allowed me to gather it up and maintain my lead,- he said.
Two driver announcements also were made at California Speedway. Scott Riggs, who finished 16th in a one-off drive for Brevak Racing, was introduced as the 2001 wheelman of Ultra Motorsports' Team ASE Racing Dodge. Ultra owner Jim Smith still has one seat open on the two-truck team for which Mike Wallace finished fourth in NCTS standings this season. Impact Motorsports owner David Hodson said 22-year-old Kevin Conway, a NASCAR Weekly Racing and Legends car graduate, will join his team next season. Randy Tolsma leaves the organization to join Team Rensi after an eighth-place championship finish. Carlos Contreras isn't expected to return to the team for a sophomore season. ¯ NASCAR officials planned to release the 2001 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series schedule of 24 races on Monday. Several dates have been independently announced, including inaugural visits to Darlington Raceway on May 12, Kansas Speedway on July 7 and South Boston (Va.) Speedway on Sept. 28. Las Vegas Motor Speedway is rejoining the tour after a one-season absence on Oct. 14 while California Speedway again will host the season finale on Nov. 3. ESPN/ESPN2 will broadcast the entire schedule, along with MRN Radio. ¯ The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series has proved to be a magnet for drivers attempting to crack the national racing scene. Forty-one of 104 competitors who started at least one event in 2000 never previously had appeared in a NCTS race. A record 27 different drivers won more than $100,000 during the past season, led by champion Greg Biffle and runnerup Kurt Busch who contributed more than $1.25 million to Roush Racing coffers pending this Thursday's awards banquet in Scottsdale, Ariz. ¯ Busch's final rookie-of-the-year winning margin, over Contreras, was a whopping 135 points. The previous widest spread, a year ago, was 25. Turns out that the award was clinched with five races to go following the Aug. 12 Federated Auto Parts 250 at Nashville Speedway USA. ¯ The final race of the season saw just three money positions change hands. Bryan Reffner advanced to ninth, past Steve Grissom. Marty Houston took 12th from Jimmy Hensley and Rob Morgan displaced Randy MacDonald in 18th. ¯ At least 47 records were set or matched during the 2000 season. Qualifying marks were established or broken 14 times while 11 race standards were posted. ¯ Teams technically don't see action again until February's Daytona Speed Weeks, however, most will attend Darlington Raceway's Nov. 15-16 open test. Dates for January's drills at Daytona International Speedway should be announced soon, according to NASCAR officials.

Free transcription of part of the talk:
[…] give a rat a lever that dispenses food pallet every time and he'll get one when he's hungry. But if you give one that only sometimes dispenses that food pallet, he'll just hit until he runs out of steam because he's not sure of what the trick is and he thinks he's gonna get it if he keeps banging on that lever.
To see how this applies to facebook, replace the lever with you posting some bit of hitherto private information on facebook, and the food pallet with the jolt of feedback you (sometimes) get as a result of what you have posted. Scary thought, isn't it?
EDIT: I corrected a number typos I did when transcribing…

Black Widow Contributions
The black widow has one of the strongest and most durable webs out of all spiders that live today. Within the past hundred years, scientists have manipulated black widow spider silk in order to create an assortment of utensils. One example is during World War II. During World War II, black widow spiders were, "spinning between 100 and 180 feet of thread a week (1). This thread was then used to make cross hairs in the gunsights of U.S. Army instruments of war." Another way black widow spider's silk has proved useful is through its principles, and scientists abilities to manipulate it. Because the spider's silk is mainly made up of protein, it is much safer for our environment. As a result of the manipulation by scientists, black widow spider silk has the potential to be used for both medical and military purposes, as well as for artificial ligaments, rope and fishing line, seat belts, and airbags. On an environmental level, the black widow spider is an important consumer of small insects such as mosquitos. The spider's existence is important because with their absence would be an increase in the population of mosquitos which might increase malaria levels. Black widow spiders also play an important role as prey in the food chain. Animals such as small birds rely on the black widow as a main source of food.
