OU Wins 2005 National Championship
WEST POINT, N.Y. -- The University of Oklahoma men's gymnastics team won the 2005 NCAA title with a school record 225.675 at the NCAA National Championships in West Point, N.Y.�Ohio State was a close second at 225.450.
The Sooners also sent seven individuals to�Saturday night's individual event finals scheduled to�begin at 6 p.m. (CST).
"Tonight's competition was unbelievably close," said OU head coach Mark Williams.�"The vault has been one of our weaker events.�We had a couple of mistakes early on (on the vault) and it ended up coming down to the very end.�The parity is unbelievable and I feel very fortunate to win this.�Ohio State is a formidable opponent and they pushed us to the end."
The title marks the third National Championship for the Sooners in the past four years (2003, 2002) and the sixth overall for the OU Men's Gymnastics program (2005, 2003, 2002, 1991, 1978, 1977). It also marks the 24th team national title all-time for University of Oklahoma Athletics.
The competition between Oklahoma and Ohio State came down to the very last rotation,�with OU on the vault and the Buckeyes on the still rings.�OU nailed a score of 37.275 to outdistance Ohio State.�It came down to the very last attempt on the vault, where freshman Jonathan Horton stuck a title-clinching 9.5, tying his career high from the night before.
"I don't know what was going through my mind," said Horton.�"I was thinking about the team and about our fans in the stands cheering us on.�I wanted to do it for all of them, I wanted to win it for this team and have fun, which I did and I stuck my landing."
"This is something I dreamed of," said OU senior Josh Gore.�"It is such a great time being a member of this team.�We are the true definition of what a team is.�Our foundation is having fun and it makes the competition so much easier."
The Sooners began the team finals on the parallel bars and posted a score of 37.25, their second-highest score of the season on the apparatus, behind the school record 37.4, posted�on Jan. 28�against Air Force. Taqiy Abdullah-Simmons broke his own OU school record for the third straight meet with a score of 9.6.�Horton then followed Abdullah-Simmons with a 9.325.
From there, OU moved on to the high bar and put up a mark of 37.825.�The Sooners were led by the 9.5 of Jamie Henderson and Horton's career high 9.65.�The Sooners went into their bye rotation in second place behind California.
After the brief rest, OU resumed the night's competition on the floor exercise and the Sooners did not disappoint, hitting their second highest score of�the season, a 37.475.�Two Sooners managed to post career highs, Jacob Messina with a 9.525 and David Iammatteo with a 9.425, while Horton added on a score of 9.475.
On the next rotation, OU posted a score of 37.15 on the pommel horse.�Taqiy Abdullah-Simmons continued his streak of breaking personal bests as the freshman hit a 9.4.�Brian Carr stuck a 9.3 and Josh Gore hit a 9.5 to finish out the rotation for the Sooners.
After the pommel horse, OU was looking for a strong performance on the rings and got exactly what it wanted, tying the school record with a 38.7.�Mubarak Abdullah-Simmons came through with another strong performance for the Sooners.�One night after setting a career high with a 9.525, Mubarak scored a 9.5.�David Henderson added his second highest season score on the event with a 9.75 and then Jonathan Horton followed that up with a 9.775
The Sooners moved into the final event on the vault and in first place, leading Ohio State by 1.325.�Messina hit a 9.225, David Henderson hit a 9.425 and Horton hit his vault to clinch the National Championship for Oklahoma.
The seven Sooners who qualified for Saturday night's individual event finals are Jonathan Horton (FX, SR, V, PB, HB), Jacob Messina (FX), David Iammatteo (FX), Josh Gore (PH, PB), Jamie Henderson (SR), David Henderson (SR, V) and Taqiy Abdullah-Simmons (PB).

text: NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Cliffs Natural Resources Inc. CLF, +3.87% fell 6% to $32.51 a share on Tuesday as one of the worst-performing stocks in the S&P 500 SPX, -0.12% Goldman Sachs analysts cut the mining firm to sell from neutral and said the stock's current return potential is negative 29% in the next six months, with a price target of $25 a share. The company's move to delay its Bloom Lake mine expansion and curtail some U.S. operations, "underscores that in a relatively weak iron ore market, high cost producers like Cliffs will be at a greater disadvantage." Goldman Sachs analysts said they expect a price rebound in 2013, but prices may fall thereafter, placing the company's expansion plans and dividends "at risk."

Award Winning Artist Brings Light to Those in Need
Renowned artist, Maya Green, donates her work to help those in need of mental and emotional uplift.
Artist, Maya Green, this week donated a valuable collection of her popular art to The Elements of Bright Sun (TEOBS) Foundation in Los Angeles; which provides free artwork to hospitals, clinics and rehabilitation centers.
The non-profit organization aims to promote healing through art, believing bright colors and light promote health and increase happiness.
TEOBS founder, Irena Orlov, said of Maya Green's contribution: "TEOBS is honored to have received such a generous donation. Maya Green's work is incredibly dynamic and uplifting, and as a result of her gift many people will feel the brilliant positivity of her art, at times when they are most in need."
The original paintings and Giclée prints will be offered for sale on the TEOBS website (www.teobs.com). Once the paintings are sold, large edition prints will be made with the proceeds, and placed free of charge in public places where they can best promote healing.
Maya Green is an internationally renowned artist who has exhibited all over the world, and whose work hangs in collections on four continents. Her incredible gift for using color and light to enliven her work sets her apart from other artists.
Her collection "The Elements of Bright Sun" (www.yessy.com/MAYA) received so much acclaim and generated so much positive response, it inspired the creation of TEOBS Foundation. Maya believes her gift can help bring positive changes to peoples' lives. She says: "I'm an artist because it's my nature and, in a certain way, my instinct; I can't live the other way. When people see my paintings I'd like them to be happier and kinder."
Irena Orlov formed TEOBS Foundation after receiving thousands of responses to Maya's work. It became clear to Irena that art has the power to affect peoples' well being in a very real way. Irena said: "TEOBS Foundation is the bridge between artists who create optimistically bright and energizing art, and people who experience a lack of positive emotions. TEOBS supports the artists by helping them bring their colorful work to people whom it can help balance their physical and emotional states and facilitate healing."

Collection by Maya Green
All artists paint with color. But in the hands of Maya Green; color takes on a whole different spectrum of meaning.
It's almost as if color was created for her to use. Her bold reds, dramatic blues, and sunshine yellows leap off each and every canvas and envelop the viewer in their elemental energy.
She says: ""For me, the piece is completed when I have an irresistible feeling to walk into it and enjoy walking there." Her incredible gift means that she transmits this feeling to her viewer; immersing them in the emotions created by her vivid palette, and compelling them to walk with her.
And nowhere is this spectacular talent for color more apparent than in her aptly named collection: "The Elements of Bright Sun". Each piece is a journey into the vivid, dramatic, landscapes that have inspired her work; and describes the spiritual beauty she finds in nature.
Maya believes that her landscapes should help people to see the beauty most of us miss in our frantic lives. She says: "In my pictures, I try to catch the moment and give people the opportunity to look at that natural beauty and take a break. It's important because people are so busy nowadays they easily forget they're part of that beauty."
In this latest collection she has achieved a respect for beauty and color that is extraordinary. In award-winning piece, "The Beautiful Land", this makes itself felt in broad sweeps of powerful yellow, vivid ultramarine, and dynamic reds that take your breath away. All are applied with a palette knife, as Maya believes it expresses energy no brush can.
Maya is truly a global artist: having lived in Israel, the US and her native Ukraine. Her experience on three continents informs her work to the present day and can be felt in the depth of response she consistently evokes as an artist.
For Maya, being an artist is not merely a profession but a state of being. When she paints she is absorbed entirely in the act of creation, intuitively choosing the dynamic colors that define her paintings. She believes that color has transformative power and positive healing energy, and her work is testament to that belief.
This collection, "The Elements of Bright Sun", has the power to uplift, captivate and transform with its brilliance and energy, making us all feel touched by the bright, bright sun that is Maya Green.
Jazz & Dance by Maya Green

Collection by Maya Green
When Maya Green paints the colors sing; and anyone hearing them is instantly entranced.
In her new collection "Jazz & Dance" music is present in every masterful stroke of the bold, vivid oils of Maya's palette.
Inspired by the eloquence of jazz and the passion of dance, each piece in this collection is powerfully evocative of her favorite music. From the moody blues and fiery oranges of "Bluegrass Music" to the dramatic, crashing reds and yellows of "High Note": Maya's love for music as an art form comes through loud and clear.
"Jazz & Dance" collectively captures musical emotion in Maya's inimitable style; making sure that viewers feel its resonance. She says: "I want them to smell the fragrance in the air, hear the melody and clattering shoes of dancers….enjoy the music of my paintings." This desire is achieved with brilliance and panache, no viewer is left unmoved by the incredible intensity of Maya's expression and colors.
This passion for sharing her experience of music is borne of a spiritual appreciation of fellow artistes. Maya says: "Musicians are spiritually close to me…they share their emotions through sounds… as I share them through my art pieces." This collection is her tribute to the work of musicians who have inspired her through their art. It is Maya's great gift that she is able to translate into bold vivid color the dynamics of music.
Maya, a native of Ukraine, has been fascinated with music for as long as she has been fascinated with color and light. For her they are both part of existence, and she cannot imagine her life without either of them. This collection is a beautifully natural fusion of the two most sensuous forms of expression, exquisitely executed.
And for Maya, art is the most natural way to enhance life. She says: "I'm an artist because it's my nature and, in a certain way, my instinct; I can't live the other way." She believes it is impossible to teach art, because it is an intangible ability and either exists within the artist or not.
"Jazz & Dance" is a culmination of Maya's belief in the healing power of art and music, and the positive energy it transmits. She hopes that when people look at her paintings they feel happier and kinder.
And there is no doubt that Maya's incredible touch is felt by all who see her work; bringing light and color into their hearts for a moment. With this powerful collection she goes one further, and compels them to hum a little tune too.

Rich Flores revived his golf-teaching career after fighting cardiac amyloidosis, a cancerous heart condition that still causes hot spells and shortness of breath.
Doctors told the Batavia man his heart would work at 42 percent of capacity after the cancer entered remission. Flores still isn't sure what that ratio really means, but the chance to give lessons again is what he really counts on.
Flores sees about 20 players a week at his longtime home base, Geneva's Mill Creek Golf Club. That total was 60 to 80 before he became sick two years ago.
"The doctors just said to take it easy and know I could not do what I used to, which is OK," Flores said. "That's what I'm doing, and I'm at peace with that."
Flores' lessons last 30 to 45 minutes, his normal duration, and range from 10 a.m. to 4 or 5 p.m. four days a week. Flores, 56, usually takes off Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays. Chemotherapy treatments – which he'll require once a month for the rest of his life – are Mondays.
Flores also visits a cardiologist and stem cell doctor once every six months.
These days, that agenda merely comes as something he rattles off to friends or students checking in on how he's doing. There's certainly enough of those.
It's been two summers since Tom Ryan, brother of Flores' wife, Judy, organized a benefit golf outing at Pheasant Run in St. Charles, but Flores often hearkens back to those memories.
"It was amazing. I still can't get over all the support and players we had," he said. "I still just kind of think about it and say, 'Wow, what a blessing.' Some great family and some friends and a lot of support."
While Flores welcomes adult players, his focus remains steeped in the junior scene.
"Everybody in junior golf knows who he is," said Mill Creek director of golf Steve Feddern, a longtime friend. "No question."
Still the uncertain timetable behind his recovery led some former students to find other coaches, which Flores understood.
"It's no big deal to me," he said, "as long as they get help."
Flores gave lessons on a more limited basis last summer and is building his stamina to golf more often.
The St. Charles High alumnus said he felt "pretty good" after playing nine holes with a friend Wednesday morning.
Considering where he was not long ago, Flores will take it.

Time to square off
Here's a look at Saturday's Round of 16 tee times for the championship flight match-play tournament portion of the St. Charles Men's Tournament. The event's second weekend gets under way with B-flight matches beginning at 7 a.m at Pottawatomie Golf Course. Winners advance to Sunday's quarterfinals.
Matt Daly, who fired a qualifying-round 74 this past weekend, is the top seed as defending champion. Chris Jones is seeded second after winning a three-hole playoff with Sean Lenchner. Both men carded qualifying 72s.
11:30 a.m.: Matt Daly vs. Eliot Kaufman
11:30 a.m.: Chris Jones vs. Joe Tigan
11:37 a.m.: Garrett Patten vs. Jon Woods
11:37 a.m.: Richard Geier vs. Nick Maze
11:45 a.m.: Brian Charles vs. Mike Heithoff
11:45 a.m.: Sean Lenchner vs. Jim Funk
11:52 a.m.: David Lanciotti vs. Anthony Damico
11:52 a.m.: Chris Thomas vs. Rick Pechous
Out in the open
St. Charles East alumnus Jenny Niemiec shaved seven strokes from her opening-round score at the Illinois Women's Open to make the 34-player cut at Romeoville's Mistwood Golf Club.
Her even-par 72 Thursday put Niemiec at 7-over 151, tied for 22nd place. The Northern Illinois junior enters today's final round eight shots behind leader Samantha Postillion.
Kaneland product Hayley Guyton, an Illinois State junior, missed the cut by one stroke after shooting separate 77s. Guyton has remained busy this summer, staying close in Mid-American Junior Golf Tour events at Purdue and Illinois State, among her other tournaments.
"This summer, it's been good," Guyton said this week. "I've seen a lot of really good things coming out of my practicing. It's been frustrating with losing a couple playoffs, so I'm right there, but there's definitely work to be done with practicing under pressure."

BRANDON — The Otter Valley Union High School Board's biggest challenge is not coming from state officials this budget season, but from students. Or lack thereof.
A continuing decline in the student population has left the board with a much greater budgetary test than meeting state's Challenges for Change target of cutting spending by 2 percent.
The cuts may result in the termination of the School Resource Officer (SRO) position currently held by Brandon Police Officer Anne Bandy, one science teacher and two English teachers.

Kinston�s Nationwide Insurance celebrating 25 years
Hand-cut Angus steaks and burgers will be something to sink your teeth into.
A new restaurant, Sagebrush Steakhouse, will be opening next week on U.S. 70 East. The planned opening date is Wednesday.
The company has hired about 50 people and is still looking for up to 25 more employees. Training has already begun. The general manager, Chuck Forro, resides in Kinston.
�We�re really excited to be in Kinston,� said Christine Wittman, the director of brand enhancement for JP Steakhouse in Mooresville.
If interested, apply at mycrgjob.com or by phone at 877-692-7456, Ext. 100.
The company opened its first Sagebrush in Hickory in 1990 and Kinston will be the 24th restaurant in four surrounding states, she said.
�We are a casual family steakhouse,� Wittman said. �We are definitely family-friendly.�
Children ages 10 and under eat free from the kids� menu on Wednesdays. The kids� menu has nine items, including ribs, sirloin tips, pasta and veggie plate, and two desserts.
The restaurant is known for its award-winning ribs. It also has seafood, chicken, soups, salads, steak toppers, appetizers and a full-service bar.
�We pride ourselves at having great food at affordable prices,� Wittman said.
There are daily lunch, dinner and drink specials, as well as a lunch menu from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Saturday, with prices ranging from $5 to $8.
The former Jeffrey�s was rearranged and decorated with rodeo photography recently. It maintains the former kitchen equipment and its two dining rooms seat 150 people.
Customers can eat in, take out or have their event catered off-site.
�It�s going to be a great location,� Wittman said. �We�ve got a little something for everybody.�
Sagebrush Steakhouse, 603 E. New Bern Road, will be open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday. For information or to order take-out, call 252-208-7702.
Jim Walker�s Nationwide Insurance Group opened its doors on Sept. 5, 1988, and celebrated a grand opening that October across from Farmer�s Furniture.
The business moved to 1200 W. Vernon Ave. in May 2000. There are now seven offices in Kinston, La Grange, New Bern, Smithfield, Apex and two in Goldsboro. Each is independent corporations.
Walker, a native of Beautancus in Duplin County, started working at Evans Ford, but he found he couldn�t make money unless he was onsite selling them. His golfing buddies, who were insurance agents, would talk about their successes.
He also noticed it was the insurance adjusters who got people back into their homes after a disaster.
�The bottom line is helping people,� he said. �� In 100 years, we�ll all be gone, but helping people is what really counts.�
Walker said he �was interviewed by every major insurance company in the country.�
One even sent him a letter saying, �it would be better if I chose a different career path.�
They couldn�t have been more wrong. But starting out wasn�t easy. His wife, Cheryl Davis Walker, from Pink Hill, and now chief financial officer, encouraged him.
�She�s been with me since Day 1,� he said. �� The phone wouldn�t ring, and she said, �Honey, you need to go back out and see if you can sell something.� �
Walker, now CEO, said he got through the recession of 2008 by stabilizing the office for a time. But he sees the economy starting to pick up, especially in Apex, Smithfield and New Bern.
�We have about 30 percent penetration in Lenoir County,� he said. He hopes to reach 50 percent.
His partner, Jeff Howard, joined Walker 14 years ago and works at a satellite office in La Grange.
The full-service offices sell homeowners, auto, commercial and life insurance, as well as others.
�We�re No. 1 in auto and homeowners in North Carolina,� Walker said.
Jim Walker of Nationwide Insurance Group is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays. For information, call 252-527-6000.

Although their experiences are different, they share the same passions for community service. After reaching out to City Manager Jonathan Evans, D.J. Lintelman spent Friday going through multiple departments within Haines City's local government in search of guidance.
HAINES CITY | Although their experiences are different, they share the same passions for community service.
After reaching out to City Manager Jonathan Evans, D.J. Lintelman spent Friday going through multiple departments within Haines City's local government in search of guidance.
Lintelman, 25, said he has spent the last several months contacting numerous city administrators looking for a road map to begin his career path in local government.
The majority of the responses were vague, he said, even ambiguous and lacked substantial advice.
It was different with City Manager Jonthan Evans.
Evans said Lintelman's email made him feel "very excited" and "humbled," because when reading Lintelman's ambitions, he is reminded a lot of himself.
It led Evans to set up an eight-hour shift Friday for Lintelman to tour through the various departments in Haines City's local government.
Lintelman graduated in May 2013 from the University of Central Florida with a master's degree in public administration with a strategic planning focus.
"I can't imagine wanting to be anything other than a city manager," Lintelman said. "It's the best way to connect with and empower the members of my community, and it's something I'm passionate about."
He aspires to be a city manager by the age of 35 and retain that position until retirement, he said.
Friday morning began with Evans sharing his personal history and experiences moving through the different levels of municipal government. One thing he stressed to Lintelman is the insignificance of age.
Evans said people often walk into a room expecting to meet him, but wind up saying, "Who are you?"
That's because Evans, now 33, became city manager in September, and he said he doesn't want his age to reflect his abilities.
"You need to have the mindset, 'Just because someone has more experience, they are not going to out-work me,' " Evans told Lintelman. "Not being cocky, but being confident in your ability is very critical."
Lintelman said people often question his passion and drive because he is fresh out of graduate school.
As a way of getting a foot in the door, Lintelman worked for the city of Naples in the Parks and Recreation Department; worked non-profit events sponsored by the city of Fort Myers; and worked in the budget office for the city of Casselberry.
More recently, he's worked in the private sector as a project manager, helping small municipalities with IT services.
Evans also cautioned Lintelman about times when work conflicts with personal life and relationships. Trying to find a balance is always important, even if it's a constant battle, he said.
"You have to be able to unplug sometimes," Evans said. "But I genuinely love what I do so I have a hard time unplugging."
Lintelman agreed, but said the balance is easier to find when the passion is there.
"I'm willing to sacrifice certain things in my life for the betterment of the community," Lintelman said. "It's something I feel so strongly about."
Lintelman's day was broken down into an eight-hour itinerary, experiencing a different aspect of Haines City's local government each hour.
Lintelman spoke with people in management, human resources, community development, police and fire. And at the end of everything, he said the experience only added to his passion and desire to continue towards his goal of city management.
"Some people work to get a paycheck, but I live to work," Lintelman said. "This is what I want to do; it's not just a career, it's a lifestyle."
Evans said he will stay in contact.
"I'm a firm believer in giving others an opportunity," he said, "because the same opportunity was given to me."

Federal tax revenue losses for state and local tax-exempt bonds were about $28 billion in 2010, according to GAO's analysis of the Department of the Treasury's estimates. The loss occurs because taxpayers can exclude the bond interest from their federal taxable income.
For federal tax purposes, tax-exempt bonds are classified as either governmental bonds or private activity bonds. In general, governmental bonds are used to build public capital facilities like roads and serve the general public interest. Private activity bonds, which can be either taxable or nontaxable depending on their purpose, provide financing to private businesses and are subject to restrictions that do not apply to governmental bonds. State and local governments have issued governmental bonds for facilities, such as sports stadiums, that are generally considered to be for private use but may serve some broader public purpose.
Tax-exempt bonds are sometimes used to fund facilities or activities that are private in nature, costing the federal government revenue losses for purposes that may not merit federal subsidies. State and local governments have broad discretion in deciding which activities and facilities to finance using tax-exempt bonds. When they issue governmental bonds for facilities and activities that are essentially private, such as for hotels and golf courses, they may indicate that the bonds serve a broader public purpose. For example, they may indicate there are benefits to the community that extend beyond the purpose of the facility being financed by the bonds or that the facilities provide certain services to those who would not otherwise be able to use them. GAO was asked to identify hotels and municipal golf courses funded with tax-exempt bonds and found 18 hotels financed from 2002 through 2006 and six golf courses that opened in 2005 that GAO could confirm had some tax-exempt bond financing. However, it is not clear whether facilities like hotels and golf courses always provide public benefits to federal taxpayers that extend beyond the purposes of the facilities. Since GAO's 2008 report, applicable laws that would limit the use of tax-exempt bond financing have not been changed.
Members of Congress have recently shown interest in whether certain facilities providing benefits that are essentially private in nature, such as stadiums, should be financed with tax-exempt governmental bonds. However, similar attention has not been given to other types of facilities.
GAO continues to believe, as indicated in its February 2008 report, that as Congress considers whether tax-exempt governmental bonds should be used for professional sports stadiums that are generally privately used, it also should consider whether other privately used facilities, including hotels and golf courses, should continue to be financed with such bonds. How much additional federal revenue would be gained would depend on how broadly Congress applies new limitations. For instance, because wider-ranging limitations on governmental bonds would reduce the purposes for which such bonds may be issued, limitations that applied only to sports stadiums would raise less revenue than limitations that applied more broadly to include additional types of facilities, such as hotels and golf courses.
The information contained in this analysis is based on the related GAO product listed under the "Related GAO Products" tab and updated data on the amount of lost federal revenue each year.
For additional information about this area, contact Michael Brostek at (202) 512-9110 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
The outstanding amount of state and local government tax-exempt bonds has increased over the years. Congress is interested in whether the bonds are used for appropriate purposes since the federal government forgoes billions in tax revenues annually by excluding the bonds' interest from investors' federal gross income. Questions also exist over the bonds' borrowing costs as they can divert funds fr...

Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson may be the big names in the new comedy "The Internship," but the real star of the film is Google.
The company campus in Mountain View, Calif., is the setting for the movie in which Vaughn and Wilson play down-on-their-luck watch salesmen searching for a second chance as Silicon Valley interns.
Google lent its brand to the 20th Century Fox movie and let the production film two days on-site without charging location or licensing fees.
PHOTOS: Hollywood backlot moments
Brainy staffers took on roles as extras (co-founder Sergey Brin appears twice, once wearing green neon slippers and riding an elliptical bike). The film highlights Google's Gmail, Google Plus, Wallet and Maps, and the company's self-driving car gets a cameo too.
Google helped the filmmakers reconstruct the company's campus for filming at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, down to the details such as the T-shirts employees wear and the colorful "Noogler" propeller hats that interns wear during their first week. Google's creative team designed the movie's end credits. Google even contributed dialogue for two scenes.
The film comes as Google's do-no-evil corporate image is under scrutiny from government regulators and privacy watchdogs, who question whether the technology giant's business practices harm consumers and competitors.
"If the movie can convey a spirit of openness and fairness, of connecting the world and doing no evil, then it is going to be very positive for Google's image," said Peter Sealey, adjunct professor of marketing at Claremont Graduate University. "Google needs that now. This movie could help keep them out of the penalty box a little while longer."

Vaughn, who first approached Google, and director Shawn Levy insist that "The Internship," which opens June 7, is not a two-hour commercial for the technology giant. Google did have approval over how its products and culture were represented in the film, but it did not have final cut. The company gave filmmakers only notes about technical details in the movie, Levy said, and Google did not contribute to "The Internship's" $58-million budget.
Wheeler Winston Dixon, a film studies professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, called "The Internship" an "epic piece of branding" for Google. "To have an entire film tent-poled around one company takes product placement to a whole new level," he said.
"The Internship" continues a warming of ties between Google and Hollywood after years in which the two have clashed over piracy issues; Fox was the last major studio to agree to distribute its movies through Google Play. The relationship has begun to evolve from mutual suspicion to mutual interest, and building a film around a company that has become a fixture in popular culture may help the studio sell tickets.
"I do believe there is an increasing recognition of how to coexist and, in fact, help each other," said Levy.
Google executives cast their motivations in much simpler terms. The film, they say, is a way to encourage kids to fall in love with math and science and pursue careers in technology.
"The reason we got involved with the movie 'The Internship' is that computer science has a marketing problem," Google Chief Executive Larry Page said during a keynote speech last week at the company's annual developers' conference in San Francisco. "We're the nerdy curmudgeons."
Vaughn came up with concept for the comedy when the recession hit and friends in the Midwest began losing their jobs. As he began sketching out the story, he hit on the idea of having two salesmen reinvent themselves at the company that has come to symbolize the new economy.
"If you were to start over, that would be the great place to go," Vaughn said. After completing a draft of the script, he requested a meeting with Google in April 2011.
"We're quite used to the phone ringing and people asking to work with us," Google Chief Marketing Officer Lorraine Twohill said. "We do a lot of creative collaboration. But this is clearly a whole different scale."
Vaughn and Wilson toured Google's headquarters and laid out the premise for "The Internship." The notion that Google, which hires 1,500 summer interns from a pool of 40,000-plus highly qualified candidates, would give a shot to two goofy washouts broke the ice.
"We all started laughing," Twohill recalled.
Films about companies don't always work out the way their image handlers might hope. Producer Scott Rudin approached Facebook about participating in the 2010 film "The Social Network" but said he walked away because the company made too many creative demands. The movie won three Oscars, but Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg was portrayed in an unflattering light.
Vaughn and Levy said they won Google over with a commitment to cast Google in the film essentially the way Google sees itself. Levy made a series of subsequent trips to Google in spring and early summer last year, meeting with Google employees and exploring the campus. He attended training for summer interns.
Levy, Vaughn and screenwriter Jared Stern say they were given wide latitude to interpret freely. Levy also promised that the PG-13 comedy, though irreverent and occasionally crass, would retain the warmth, humor and optimism of some of his other films, including "Night at the Museum" and "Cheaper by the Dozen."
"This was opportunity to take a lens inside of a culture that is globally ubiquitous but largely mysterious," said Levy. "Everyone knows Google, but no one knows what it would be like to work at Google."
The film showcases the famous perks that Google's rich profit margins make possible: free gourmet food and dry cleaning, nap pods for afternoon shut-eye, lap pools and volleyball courts.
In the script-writing phase, the company furnished "tech-speak notes" to lend authenticity to conversations between company interns. The filmmakers gave one tireless employee, played by Rose Byrne, a line that underscores the corporate philosophy of "Googleyness," a combination of intellectual curiosity and a passion to change the world.
"I actually believe," Byrne tells Wilson's mystified newcomer, "that what we do here helps make people's lives a little bit better."
"It wasn't a shallow comedy, it was a comedy with heart — that was very important," said Twohill. "It captured our spirit, or 'Googleyness.' They built a lot of trust with us."

Companies are increasingly leaping from the background in films into story lines and dialogue, said Sut Jhally, professor of communication at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. "The Internship," he said, is just a step beyond what Levy did in "Night at the Museum," in which the American Museum of Natural History starred alongside Ben Stiller. "You don't have to do direct product placement anymore. ... The whole environment of the film is Google."
Vaughn says Google's driverless car and other products lent authenticity and aided in storytelling: They heralded the characters' entry into an unfamiliar world, much like the horse of a different color signaled Dorothy's arrival in Emerald City in "The Wizard of Oz."
Even though Google is happy with its portrayal, Jason Squire, an associate professor at the USC School of Cinematic Arts, said the film is still a risk — it could bomb at the box office or rub people the wrong way. "It's a very daring thing," he said. "It could easily backfire."
There were a few ideas that Google pushed back on, said Aasif Mandvi, who plays Roger Chetty, the gruff head of Google's internship program. For example, filmmakers had originally wanted the self-driving car to spin out of control and crash. "I think Google was like, 'No, we're not going to do that because we haven't even launched the driverless car yet,'" Mandvi said. "I don't think they wanted to show it in a way that was not favorable."
Twohill said she resisted the urge to meddle with other less flattering parts of the film that distort reality for comedic effect, such as the sometimes harsh treatment of interns (the program is referred to as "mental 'Hunger Games'"). Or one ribald "team building" excursion to a San Francisco strip club.
"We were a little bit worried about the dance club scene, to be honest," said Twohill, who watched the film with company founders Page and Brin. "I knew what was coming, they didn't."
Asked Page and Brin's reaction, Twohill laughed. "I'm still here," she said.

Electronic Arts' new downloadble service, Origin, will host exclusive content for games such as Battlefield 3 and Mass Effect 3. Digital copies of Star Wars: The Old Republic will be exclusive to Origin. Crysis 2, released earlier this year, was pulled from Valve's digital games service Steam yesterday, fueling speculation EA removed the title.
EA has stated the game's removal was due to an agreement between Crytek and another download service, not a decision by the publisher.
Posted below is EA's statement sent to IGN:
It's unfortunate that Steam has removed Crysis 2 from their service. This was not an EA decision or the result of any action by EA.
Steam has imposed a set of business terms for developers hoping to sell content on that service – many of which are not imposed by other online game services. Unfortunately, Crytek has an agreement with another download service which violates the new rules from Steam and resulted in its expulsion of Crysis 2 from Steam.
Crysis 2 continues to be available on several other download services including Origin.com.
IGN has contacted Valve for comment.

Mazel tov to the bar mitzvah boy -- 65 years late. Branko Lustig has two Oscars and a slew of film and television production credits, among them "Schindler's List" and "Gladiator" and "Black Hawk Down" and the TV miniseries "War and Remembrance." He also has a number, A3317, from his years as a young Croatian Jew imprisoned in Nazi concentration camps.
He is now, as well, the possessor of a tallit, the prayer shawl given to boys to mark their bar mitzvahs. Lustig was presented with his this month at Universal Studios, as a prelude to the rest of the ceremony, which is set for May 2 at a place he knows all too well: Barrack 24 at Auschwitz, one of the two camps Lustig survived. His delayed rite of manhood -- he was just shy of his 13th birthday and weighed 66 pounds when he was liberated from Bergen-Belsen -- is part of an event organized by the March of the Living, which brings Holocaust survivors together with teenagers. It will, like the name of the television epic he produced, close the circle of his life's journey from war to remembrance.
Do you feel as excited as a 13-year-old boy?
I am 78, and I think I will be a little bit ecstatic because there will be about 10,000 young people around me.
I am not a very religious man. When I was a little boy [in what was then the Kingdom of Yugoslavia], before I went to concentration camp, both my grandfathers were very religious and I went with them [on] all the big holidays. I went on Friday to the synagogue. My grandmother was kosher. So when I am thinking about my bar mitzvah, I am not thinking that I am going back to religion [as much as] I am heading back to tradition.
I think, like Tevye in "Fiddler on the Roof" -- my friend Chaim Topol [played] Tevye [when] I was working on "Fiddler" in 1970 in Zagreb -- without tradition it is impossible to continue. And that's what's pushing me forward. Like the Holocaust, like Masada, like crossing the Red Sea, like all these big events in Jewish history, they are all part of the tradition.
That at 78 I will finally be a man -- I am very excited, and I will tell this to the 10,000 young people standing around me.
When you turned 13, in 1945, Bergen-Belsen had just been liberated, and a bar mitzvah would have been the last thing on your mind.
Exactly. I was very sick. I had typhoid, and then in one moment, I heard music. I hadn't heard music for a long time. I was delirious, thinking, "I'm in heaven finally, and these are angels playing," because never before [had] I heard Scottish music, bagpipes, and the British troops entered Bergen-Belsen with bagpipes.
Your bar mitzvah ceremony will be held alongside Barrack 24 at Auschwitz, where you were also imprisoned.
Barrack 24 was by the entrance. I was working a couple of months at the entrance, opening the door. There was an orchestra, the camp orchestra, playing every time there were people marching in and out of the camp. This will be a very significant place for me.
Will it be your first time back there?
During "War and Remembrance," we were there, and we shot in Auschwitz and Birkenau. "Schindler's List," no. We invented a camp we made in front of Birkenau. Steven [Spielberg] promised that they will not disturb the [spirit of the] people who died inside.
What was it like to work on that film, so evocative of what you endured?
The only hard piece was when we shot [the scenes of Nazis] putting the little boys and little girls in the trucks in "Schindler's List." I will never forget this opening scene. I start to cry, and Steven came to me, and he stopped the filming and took me outside, put me next to his mother and told her she should watch me.
You've devoted your life to film and to telling some of these stories on film; now it's your story being told.
I never forgot. When I got my first Academy Award, I told the audience: "I promised myself when I was liberated that I will tell the story of these people who died there. When they were hanging in front of us, the people said, 'Don't forget us, please. Tell this story to the world."' And I am telling the story when I can.
[Watch Lustig's Academy Award acceptance speech for "Schindler's List."]
In Zagreb, the fifth [Jewish] film festival [I've organized] is dedicated to the women in the Holocaust. We are starting with a movie [by] a filmmaker called [Vanda] Yakubovskaya, shot in Auschwitz in 1947, the first movie shot [there]. Then we have "Out of the Ashes," [about] a woman doctor in Auschwitz, and "Sophie's Choice," [which] I shot with Meryl Streep in Zagreb. We have "Inside Hana's Suitcase," a Japanese movie; it's fantastic. We show it to children, and I explain the Holocaust, how I survived.
You had a cameo in "Schindler's List" as the maitre d' of a nightclub patronized by Nazis.
I came back to Los Angeles; I didn't get any offers to be an actor, but everyone offered me [roles as a] maître d'!
We're talking on Hitler's birthday. You won.
I'm alive, and they are all dead. Last year in Berlin, they invited me to give the Lola [award] of the German film academy. Angela Merkel was there, and when I started talking about Auschwitz a little, she holds her hand [up to her face], and I knew she was thinking, "Oh my God, not again." And then I said, "They are all dead and I'm free, here, in front of you." She was immediately in a better mood.
People are afraid that as Holocaust survivors disappear, so too will the memories of it.
You are right. Slowly, people are not making movies about the Holocaust. [For my] film festival, every time [there are] less movies about the Holocaust. One day they will stop, like Westerns.
What do you make of the Holocaust deniers, who say it never happened, even in the face of survivors like you?
One day, when I will not be here anymore -- not only me but every [survivor] -- then who will stand in our position and tell them, "Yes, this is true, you can ask me, I was there"? There will be nobody. And that's very important, that's [why] Steven [Spielberg] made his Shoah Foundation. I helped him to organize [it]. Today we have 55,000 statements, and the statements will be here.
That's what I want to say to the young people at Auschwitz: They will be responsible for the next generation, to tell the people who will deny that the Holocaust existed, that they were there when the survivors talked to them. That's a big message.
Have you been studying Hebrew and Torah for the bar mitzvah?
I must tell you -- at 78 years, it's really difficult to learn Hebrew and really difficult to learn Torah, so I will repeat after the rabbi, Rabbi Lau from Jerusalem. He will come to Auschwitz to make me, let's say, a man. Can you imagine what would happen if they must again circumcise me?!
How did you get into film?
In 1955, I finished the academy for theater in Zagreb, and they sent me to be a translator for a couple of film productions, where they spoke Serbian, Hungarian and German. When I was there I started to work, and I never again went [back] to the theater. I stayed with film.
Did film interest you when you were a little boy?
Only with Mickey Mouse and Disney figures! From the beginning of my film career, Yugoslavia was in this time a communist country, and I made movies about the partisans fighting the Germans, and sometimes, somehow, I felt a satisfaction [watching] the brave partisans with machine guns killing German [soldiers]! I liked that.
Do you have to be careful in making politically themed films that they not be too political or people won't watch them?
At this time in Yugoslavia, [with] the communist regime, like it or not, they must watch it!
The producer and director Dan Curtis, known for the television miniseries "War and Remembrance" and the television show "Dark Shadows," brought you to the United States.
He was a very good man. He took me to America; he put me in the Directors Guild. [We] finished "War and Remembrance." After this I knew everything about movies!
You lost so many relatives in the Holocaust. Who in your family will be there with you?
I am bringing my daughter, who is a lawyer in New York, and I am bringing my wife. I have nobody else.

The Fleet Battle Staff are currently one of the world's most advanced military planning departments, capable of commanding large multinational naval and marine task groups anywhere in the world.
In today's ever-changing environment the Royal Navy and the Royal Marines, are required to operate in many different operational areas. Some of these tasks would include: deep sea (blue water) warfare, amphibious warfare, humanitarian aid and non-combatant evacuation operations. All of these require careful planning, co-ordination and execution. The Fleet Battle Staff provides the UK with this core tactical maritime expertise, which can be adapted to wide variety of situations. The FBS will regularly command task groups, often using the latest 21st century computing technology.
Based in two main headquarters in Portsmouth and Plymouth, the operational commanders and their associated staffs combine to design and develop the maritime aspect of every operational plan. In times of conflict, or when conducting exercises, the staff will usually be found on board an RN ship using the ship's advanced communication systems to direct the task force. Furthermore, when necessary, elements of the staff will move ashore to see the final phases of the operation through to its conclusion.

Military bases losing their movies
Stacey Darling loves watching family movies at the Ellsworth Air Force Base theater in South Dakota because it's so much more affordable than taking her three children to the multiplex in nearby Rapid City.
Darling, whose husband is an airman, has been catching second-run films on base for about 2 1/2 years, and was there Saturday for the theater's last showing, a screening of the animated movie "Hotel Transylvania."
Story Continued Below
The movie theater is among 60 around the globe run by the Army and Air Force Exchange Service that is screening its last picture show amid the industry's conversion to digital projection.
"We always come out for the cartoons," said Darling, of Grand Forks, N.D. "We like the family movies."
Darling said she wishes she could go to the theater even more now that her husband, Senior Master Sgt. David Darling, has deployed to southwest Asia.
It's just not cost-effective for the exchange service to invest the $120,000 per theater needed to convert from 35 millimeter film to the new format at the theaters that are being closed, said spokesman Judd Anstey. Sixty theaters will make the upgrade.
"At locations where customer attendance is decreased due to a preference for off-installation entertainment venues, a determination has been made that continued operation is no longer a viable option," Anstey said.
The exchange service runs department-store-style retail outlets, fast-food restaurants, barbers and similar services on military facilities.
Saturday's "Hotel Transylvania" screening at Ellsworth Air Force Base drew about 250 people, thanks in part to the theater forgoing the admission price for its farewell flick.
Teri Marino wishes Ellsworth patrons knew earlier about the closure so they could try to raise the cash needed to save the theater, which showed its first flick in 1969.
Marino, whose husband is a master sergeant living on base, brought her 9-year-old daughter to the final show and was enjoying the camaraderie between the mothers.
"When you're in the military, you're like family," said Marino, 37. "Especially when our husbands are deployed, the mothers - us women - stick together."

Anyone know how to manually install man packages?

One of the greatest RPGs ever made is out on iOS today. It'll cost you $15.99, and it's got touchscreen-adapted controls and a brand new coat of paint.
Check it out on iTunes if you're interested, and pick a side: Team Cool Remake or Team This Shit Is Gross. Or, if you've never played FFVI before, you can snag the original version on PSN or the Wii's Virtual Console.
I'll be playing through this one on my iPad, to see whether it's really worth the money. And yes, I totally just spent 16 bucks on a game I've already bought three times. Because I love you guys.

Exposure to perchlorate, a widely used industrial chemical found in U.S. drinking water, may prevent some women's thyroid glands from functioning properly, a government study has found.
WASHINGTON Exposure to perchlorate, a widely used industrial chemical found in U.S. drinking water, may prevent some women's thyroid glands from functioning properly, a government study has found.
Women with higher concentrations of perchlorate in their urine had lower levels of thyroid hormones, which help control energy, temperature, weight and mood, said the report by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released late Wednesday.
A component of rocket fuel and pyrotechnics, perchlorate has been detected in milk, vegetables, fruit and grains, in addition to drinking water across the United States.
The CDC used data from a health survey it conducted during 2001 and 2002, examining statistics on 2,299 male and female participants over the age of 12. Researchers then focused on the women who had low iodine levels in their urine.
In the United States, 36 percent of women have low iodine levels, they said.
The thyroid gland, which sits at the front of the neck, uses iodine to produce hormones.
The CDC said in a statement that the study indicates "that even small increases in perchlorate exposure may inhibit the thyroid's ability to absorb iodine from the bloodstream."
In July Massachusetts became the first state to set a mandatory limit on how much perchlorate can be found in local water. In Southern California, some cities are trying to require manufacturers, especially aerospace companies that use rocket fuel, and county governments to clean up the chemical.
Lewis Braverman, a doctor in the division of endocrinology at the Boston University School of Medicine, said it was surprising that the study only found the trend in women. It did not record any effects of perchlorate on men's thyroid hormones.
He faulted the CDC for not identifying which subjects had autoimmune thyroid disease. That disorder leads to lower levels of the hormone and is more common in women than in men, he said.
Braverman said he was skeptical about the effects of perchlorate in drinking water on human health.
"Perchlorate is almost ubiquitous in the environment, so that areas in the country that do not have perchlorate production or rocket fuel have perchlorate," he said.

Olympic Stadium Discussion and QuestionsDoes exactly what it says on the tin - the forum for football-related discussion.
Moderators: bristolhammerfc, sicknote, -DL-, Rio, Gnome, chalks, the pink palermo
The wrap
Just getting this out into the public domain in case he deletes my email and claims the idea as his own
Attn: Ian Tompkins - Brilliant Public Relations idea
Hi Ian
The government has withdrawn funding for the wrap and it is reflecting very badly on them . . . I imagine we HAVE to get a wrap at some point.
West Ham provides the wrap in time for the Olympics and we get a lot of good press, plus our colour scheme will be subtly imprinted on the minds of all the viewers.
Thank me later . . . . (by way of a free Season Ticket)
It is worth considering how the wrap is installed . . . . looking at the picture of the 'test wrap' I can just imagine some chavvy Hull City supporter will love slicing through it.
I think we'll have to have a solid wall installed with the wrap attached to the top of it.
Same concern for the roof as well.
Re: The wrap
I'd rather spend the £7m on a striker .
Re: The wrap
To paraphrase Frankie Boyle slightly a wrap with the words "**** off Tottenham" in twenty foot high letters would be good value

Re: The wrap
There were articles a while back that private funding had been supplied for the wrap and plans for it to be done were back on
Nice try though!
Re: The wrap
KFC do a nice wrap , perhaps they can sponsor it
I would just delete the email
Re: The wrap
I'm so out of the loop
We'll still need to mount ours up on top of a wall though.
Re: The wrap
Not quite there have been expressions of interest in funding the wrap so a tender process has been opened, it closes on Friday, still time to to get a bid in
As it happens one f the papers used our claret & blue wrapped version of the stadium to illustrate there Olympic timetable piece yesterday.

Thank you so much for your email. It is much appreciated. We will reply to all emails individually and certainly within 14 days. Please bear with us.

Re: The wrap
They did it as well! I was at the in-laws so it was either the Torygraph or Express
Re: The wrap
You've got to wonder....if the stadium is open apart from the wrap...what's to stop people just squeezing through the wrap into the ground without showing a ticket?
Also, it'll be ****ing freezing at times.
Re: The wrap
Wouldn't surprise me if the turnstiles are on the bridges over the shark infested moat
Re: The wrap
Crock infested, shirley.
Re: The wrap
That is the cunning plan to fill the stadium
Re: The wrap

Re: The wrap
Get a sponsor's logo on it and we won't have to pay a penny.
We need all the money to ensure we have Retractable Seating on all 4 sides of the pitch.
Re: The wrap
This would not be put in place until post-Olympics, as Olympic rules prohibit branding in venues.
Re: The wrap
Shame we're not just getting a finished stadium really.
Re: The wrap
As the deicion has now been ratified is it not worth investigating the cost of a reversable wrap.
Surely it can't be double the cost to produce the Olympic wrap with a Claret and Blue backing which we can reverse after the end of the games ?
Re: The wrap
Gotta be a montage all the way round of the history of West Ham, from Thames Iron Works, White Horse Final, Fa Cup win, European Cup win, Boys of 66, Boys of 86, Tomas Repka and so on to the present day right the way round the stadium.

A 2-ounce gulp of the popular liquid supplement 5-Hour Energy contains an astounding 8,333% of the recommended dietary allowance of vitamin B-12 and 2,000% of the RDA for vitamin B-6. (You'll get a mere 100% of the RDA for folic acid, also known as vitamin B-9.) A 12-ounce Red Bull, the near-official energy drink of the high school and college set, offers 360% of the RDA for vitamin B-6, 120% of B12, 140% of niacin (vitamin B3) and more sugar than you'd get in a can of Coke. B vitamins have also made their way into other energy drinks such as Cranergy, a cranberry and green tea extract drink from Ocean Spray.
These examples all contain caffeine for an extra boost; 5-Hour Energy does sell a caffeine-free version, and there's a sugar-free version of Red Bull. None of these "light" varieties skimp on the vitamins.
You can expect to pay about $5 for two 2-ounce bottles of 5-Hour Energy. Users are instructed to down an entire bottle for "maximum energy." (If you're willing to make do with 4,000% of your daily quota for B-12, you could just drink half and save the rest for later.) A 12-ounce can of Red Bull costs about $3. A 46-ounce bottle of Cranergy costs about $4.
The claims: A TV spot for 5-Hour Energy featuring burned-out office workers says that the product contains a "powerful blend of B vitamins for energy" that will let you "sail through your day without feeling jittery or tense." The 5-Hour Energy website clarifies that the supplement is supposed to "provide mental alertness, focus and improved mood rather than physical energy." The website for Red Bull says that B vitamins "play an important role in energy metabolism" and "are shown to support mental and physical performance."
The bottom line: The Healthy Skeptic isn't part of the Red Bull generation, but he did down 2 ounces of 5-Hour Energy right before his traditional afternoon slump. It turns out that a megadose of vitamin B-12 can go down pretty smoothly, if you don't mind the taste of Fresca gone flat. The caffeine -- about as much as in a cup of coffee -- seemed to kick in right away. But if the B vitamins added anything to the caffeine buzz, the effects were too subtle to notice. Energy, mood, thinking skills -- all were unfortunately ordinary and familiar.
Contrary to what ads would have us believe, B vitamins aren't little packets of energy, says Hope Barkoukis, an associate professor of nutrition at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland and chairwoman of Sports, Cardiovascular and Wellness Nutritionists, a practice group of the American Dietetic Assn. "It's brilliant marketing," she says, "but it doesn't have any basis."
It's true that the vitamins help unlock the energy in foods, Barkoukis says, but weary office workers can't expect to get a jolt from extra B vitamins in any form. The reason, she says, is simple: Just about everyone in America already gets all of the B vitamins they could possibly need in their diets.
For example, a person could get the full recommended dietary allowance of B-6 (1.3 milligrams) with a single bowl of fortified cereal or a chicken breast with a baked potato. Likewise, just 3 ounces of beef or a couple of dairy products each day provide the RDA for B-12 (2.4 micrograms).
Extra B vitamins are generally just flushed out of the system, Barkoukis says. The body can easily handle huge doses of vitamin B-12, but the Institute of Medicine warns that more than 100 milligrams of B-6 each day -- what you'd get from 2 1/2 bottles of 5-Hour Energy -- may damage nerves in the arms and legs.
Some people, especially the elderly, do need extra B vitamins as they have trouble absorbing the nutrients, says Victoria Drake, a researcher with the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University in Corvallis. In such cases, doctors may recommend vitamin B supplements, even shots. But for typical consumers of energy supplements or drinks, B vitamins are nothing more than a "gimmick," she says.
In other words, the 5-Hour Energy ad might have been more plausible if it were set in a nursing home instead of an office.

We are getting older. This is a fact of life and a world phenomenon. The question for the economy is whether this is a curse or an opportunity.
Investors, homeowners and consumers will all be impacted one way or another by the aging population. This in turn affects the economy and how businesses adapt to the changing demographics.
Most developed nations are facing the economic challenges of an expanding number of citizens over the age of 65. Populations are becoming older on all continents and Japan leads the world with the highest percentage of their people, 30 percent, over age 65. It is expected that by 2050, more than 60 countries will have reached that level. ¹
Investors may worry about what happens to the stock market when the number of retirees continues to increase. This can put pressure on pension funds and Social Security. Most fixed income sources have little or no cost of living increases. This may cause retirees to spend down their assets to create income and support long lives and potential elder care costs.
Homeowners have already been affected by the low inventory of single-story or community housing that provides active living as well as potential care services. Clients have discovered that it is often more expensive to downsize. If you are forced to stay put in your two-story house and bring in help, the supply and demand once again drives up the price of care providers available to meet your needs.
This is definitely an age group that is supporting the economy as they pay for more goods and services needed to provide for an aging population. Investors and companies can capitalize on new inventions designed to keep you young, active and healthy. As you age, more services are needed from house painting to lawn services and eventually elder care. It will be fascinating to watch what new innovations will be available on anything from self-driving cars to same-day dentures.
There is an opportunity for products that allow you to age in place, such as stair climbers, walk-in tubs and meal delivery. This is in addition to health care facilities and retirement communities that are popping up in every zip code.
Consumers demand services and products, which in turn impacts how businesses adapt to compete in the areas needed by the current population. We watched the baby boomers impact products and business on everything from Gerber baby food to McDonald's restaurants as they approached their teenage years. Next it was minivans and mini-mansions. What will this demographic bubble demand in retirement?
We are already seeing more crossover vehicle sales for easy access after that hip or knee replacement. The travel industry is pouring big dollars into cruise and riverboat advertising as more people retire and have time to go places. Stores and restaurants offer organic, gluten-free and non-processed foods for those choosing a healthy diet, perhaps in hopes of staving off the aging process. Technology has come to the rescue for home security, texting and typing by voice and tremendous health care advances. You no longer have to go to a sleep study clinic for apnea or even go to the doctor to have your heart monitored. Many health-care needs can be handled remotely through computerized monitoring devices.
While many investors may think aging is bad for an economy, it appears that the baby boom generation that grew up with technology and the stock market will continue to surprise us with new advances and financial opportunities.
Most analysts agree there may be opportunity in companies that can invent and deliver products and services to meet the growing needs of people potentially spending 40 years in retirement.
