Rated 5 out of 5 by LuvSibes M-i-l (a major football fanatic) loved them!
The husband and I picked these out, along with the football serving pieces, for my m-i-l.
She loves to go all out and have snacks and such offered during her football games and enjoys the game with company. I was actually shocked that she didn't have some type of football or team logo serving pieces or dishes, so these fit beautifully as a gift.
She loved them and even mentioned she had a football crockpot that would go well with all the pieces. So, we can guess what her next set up is... definitely a win. =)

Orchard Park, NY (WGR 550) -- So who is this man Doug Whaley? Both Russ Brandon and Buddy Nix spoke a lot about Whaley in their New Year's Day press conference.
First, this is what Buddy Nix said about the Bills Assistant General Manager and Director of Player Personnel, "The plan hasn't changed since we brought him in. We want somebody where the transition will be smooth"
What is the plan? I asked Brandon point blank if Whaley will be the Bills General Manager when Buddy Nix is gone. Brandon said, "We're working on the parameters to keep him here long term, Doug's not going anywhere."
Whaley is just past his 40th birthday. Anytime I speak with football administrators around the NFL, they say to a man he's very well thought of around the league.
What keeps a bright young talent like Whaley from leaving to be a GM with another organization? He said, "I accepted a challenge when I took this position to get this franchise to where we know it should be and that's my focus." Whaley added, "I'm a competitor and the challenge. There's nothing that's been promised me, but to give me the resources to do my job, to help those guys put this franchise on the right track and I love a challenge and that's what I signed up for and I hope to be here long enough to see it completed." I asked Whaley straight up if he's been told that when Nix retires, it's his job and he said, "I look at it this way, it's a results based business and if we don't get the results, I may not even be here, so as long as the results turn out to be positive, everything else will take care of itself so I'm not worried about that."
Before he came to Buffalo he spent 11 years with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Whaley served as Pittsburgh's Pro Scouting Coordinator where he was responsible for advance scouting of the team's opponents and focused on breaking down opposing players for the team's upcoming games. He evaluated unrestricted and restricted free agents throughout the season and into the free agent offseason period and making campus visits and scouting college players throughout the year. Prior to re-joining the Steelers in 1999, Whaley served as an East coast area scout for the Seattle Seahawks from 1996–1998. Whaley began his career as an assistant in the Steelers' Pro Personnel department in 1995.
With what's gone on in the Bills organization with Ralph Wilson and Brandon and with Whaley pretty much assured of being the Bills next GM, I thought it was important to get his thoughts, "I think change is good. I have high respect for Russ Brandon. Of course it's business as usual on our side of the business and we're focused on right now the evaluation of our roster from top to bottom, the same as we do every year after it's completed and we're excited about that. We're getting ready for free agency and we're getting ready for the draft." The team hasn't been relevant since Wade was here and Whaley knows that, "We're going to have to do a thorough evaluation and right now we're 6-10 and that's the basis of it. We're going to have to go from top to bottom with a new coach and see how far we are and get some moves to make us relevant."
Whaley will be involved with Nix and Brandon when it comes to hiring a coach. Ken Whisenhunt and Ray Horton were in Pittsburgh when Whaley was there. Both have been reported to be on the Bills radar and the Bills have confirmed that Brandon and the crew are headed to Arizona. Whaley said, "We go way back, we won Super Bowls together so I have high regard for their coaching acumen. Personally, I know those guys and hopefully…we'll see what happens. I know they've got a lot of opportunities, we haven't decided, we've still got to figure out what we're going to do and after that, I don't think it'll make a decision on if they're going to be our coach, but I can shed some insight on how they performed while I was with them and as people." Whaley added, "Everybody's a candidate and we're going to leave no stone unturned."
This is what Whaley does according to him, "I try to give Buddy the most accurate information to what he needs to make his decisions, be it personnel wise or scout wise, or salary cap wise or anything. I'm here to filter information and give him the best options out there to make an educated decision." His week breaks down like this, "In the beginning of the week I look at the talent for roster additions and subtractions for help with injury replacements. More towards the middle of the week I went and looked at the top college players and then at the end of the week I'd sit and evaluate our players."
As far as what this team needs to make it into a winning team and no longer be what Brandon called 'A tainted brand' Whaley said, "It's coach speak, we're going to have to sit down an look at the film, grade it and come up with a collective agreement on what we need to improve, where we need to improve, where we're solid and go from there."

By Deuce Niven Correspondent
TABOR CITY - Officer Matthew Turner says he feared for his life as he struggled with an assailant when responding to a call Tuesday night.
Turner's jaw was dislocated and he received cuts and bruises in the scuffle, which ended with his assailant in custody.
Turner, a three-year veteran of the Tabor City Police Department, said the assault ended as abruptly as it began.
"It was just like he gave up," Turner said.
James Rico Gore, 42, of West Sixth Street, was charged with assault on a law enforcement officer with serious injury and misdemeanor resisting police. Bail was set at $26,000.
Gore has a history of resisting police.
He was charged Aug. 16 with resisting officers and assault on an officer in a confrontation that required police to shock him twice with a Taser before being taken into custody on charges of assault by pointing a gun.
Turner was treated at McLeod Loris hospital in South Carolina. While at the hospital, Turner said he was able to get his jaw back in its socket.
"It hurt, a lot," Turner said. "I can't open it very wide right now. It hurts to eat a honey bun. It'll be OK in a couple of days. I'm upright, and that's what counts."
Pointing to his chest, Turner said, "From here up, I feel like I was hit by a Mack truck.''
Turner said he and other officers were on another call across town when 911 dispatchers sent him to West Sixth Street to investigate a report of gunfire.
Gore was walking on the sidewalk, near his home, as the officer pulled up.
"He went off and started cussing and raising a ruckus," Turner said.
As Gore walked away, a witness identified him as the man responsible for the gunfire.
"He took off towards the house," Turner said. "I knew there was a gun involved, and I was not going to let him get to the house. I reached for his shoulder from behind, and he turned around and started swinging."
Turner said Gore landed one or two punches to his jaw, dislocating it, and the men fell to the ground in a struggle. He said Gore grabbed him around the neck and began to squeeze.
"He was punching me beside my head and face and choking me, and I got my thumb up between his hand and my neck. I couldn't breathe."
Turner said he was able to fire his Taser at Gore once, but a coat prevented the leads from connecting.
"I started going for my gun, and he reached for it at the same time," Turner said.
Training kicked in, Turner said, and he rolled over to protect the weapon as Gore continued throwing punches.
Turner said he was able to get up and shoved Gore hard. Suddenly, the fight was over, and in moments Gore was in handcuffs. Gore was in the back of Turner's patrol car when other officers arrived just before 9:30 p.m.
A fight that lasted a couple of minutes seemed like hours, Turner said. And in the moments that Gore reached for his gun, the officer said he feared for his life.

Title: So Adorable!
Date: Jun 17, 2011
I was so excited when my daughter wanted a unicorn party this year (and not another princess one!) We bought these plates and lots of the accessories, and they looked so great on the day of her party! We went kinda crazy with the theme, making unicorn horn party hats and more, but the pink and purple unicorn theme was so pretty and fun and girly. I would definitely recommend anything from birthday express. We have used them many times and they are always quality products, the shipping is always fast and once when a key item was missing from our shipment they overnighted the missing item with NO issues, questions or anything. Pain free ; ) Customer service is great!!

Take the college student survey to share your opinions about your school and be entered into a $1,000 scholarship!
Reload the page and try again.
Campus Housing: I do not live on campus, but the housing is very close to campus if not on it, and buses run from campus to each of the housing units to bring students to and from their dorms.
C A+F Guys & Girls: Everyone is allowed to be their own self, as the different dress shows. Some girls may show too much skin, in my opinion, but that doesn't make them slutty or unattractive. My opinion simply consists of the fact that I would not walk around wearing the same thing if I were them. Guys usually dress decently and there have been no issues with indecent exposure or too little clothing on them that I know of.
C A+F Campus Strictness: For the most part, the only thing the campus really strives not to have going on is any cheating. Academic integrity is talked about in every class every semester, and emphasized strongly by each teacher.
B A+F Transportation: The buses to campus are always very good and the drivers are friendly and treated with respect by the students for their services.
B A+F Overall Experience: I love the teachers and haven't had a single terrible experience with one. Some may not have been to my liking, but that was only my opinion and did not necessarily reflect on other students.
C A+F Athletics: I am not a big sports fan myself, but the football team at State has some of the best backing by the school that I know of. If the team does badly, it reflects on both students and professors.
C A+F Weather: Weather hasn't really distracted me from classes, and the buildings are usually kept at a comfortable temperature no matter the elements.
B A+F Facilities: The library is very large and well-equipped to handle the multitude of students who go there every day. The athletic centers are huge and the campus has it's own interesting traditions like students taking a brick from the ground before they graduate.
B A+F Facilities: The different colleges and clubs add diversity to the college life in that nothing ever seems boring. There are always flyers or chalk on the ground telling students of club meetings or social gatherings that they can go to in order to promote a business or just have a party night.
B A+F Drug Safety: I've never actually seen anyone, that I know of, drinking or using any drugs other than cigarettes on campus, so for the most part, it seems that the majority of people are rather clean.
B A+F Off-Campus Dining: I haven't been to any restaurants around campus, but there is a large variety right across the street that is easy to access.
B A+F Scholarships: I have never had a real problem with financial aid at this school. As long as all of the paperwork is on time, the process goes relatively quickly and smoothly.
B A+F Diversity: There are many different clubs and support groups that are there for people who are struggling with differences. The people at NC State are very liberal but are accepting of those who are not quite so, even sitting and listening to "brickyard preachers" who come just to preach out of the Bible to the students walking past.
B A+F Health & Safety: I will see at least one officer whenever I am on campus, and they even come on horseback sometimes. The walkways are well-lit at night, and if a crime does happen, campus police send out a mass e-mail to everyone warning them about it and giving a description, if any, of the person(s) to look out for as well as safety measures we can take to protect ourselves.
C A+F Parking: It's not bad. There is usually a spot on the weekends and after 5pm, but during the week and during the day, spots fill up quickly. They do keep watch on permits, so have one. Everything is either on campus and very near campus so a car is not very necessary unless you want to go to Walmart, which is a 10 minute drive.
B A+F Facilities: The libraries are amazing, especially Hunt. Very state-of-the-art and every hangouts there and studies there. The icecream here is really good too.
B A+F Facilities: Nearly everything is made out of brick. HOWEVER, the school keeps it very clean and the scenery and landscaping, I feel, is very nice. Also lots of squirrels and birds to make a light-hearted atmosphere, in spite of all your academic stresses.
B A+F Athletics: Lot's of school spirit, and the campus is buzzing with it before and on game days. Our teams are mediocre and need to improve. The student gym, Carmicheal, is phenomenal! It is huge and has about every machine and court you can think of as well as a big pool.
B A+F Guys & Girls: Lot's of very pretty girls here. (about 15,000!) So, you'll probably find one that suits you. ;) Very cute, smart, friendly, and outgoing. The dumb yoga pants are very popular, as well as very short shorts.
B A+F Campus Dining: It's pretty good food and they keep the variety interesting. However, if you don't have a meal plan, its too expensive to buy all the time and becomes not worth it. You will want to eat out once in a while for better pizza or something. Also there aren't too many options to eat on campus after 9 pm.
C A+F Academics: I am in Electrical engineering right now, and it is VERY difficult. Probably the hardest thing I've ever done academically. I am probably going to change majors to something else. There are lots of internship opportunities though as long as you keep going to the Career Fair and keep your GPA around a 3.0.
C A+F Academics: There are definitely better professors than others. You don't want to get a graduate student as your instructor. Get a professor because they are much better teachers. Engineering is REALLY hard!! Be ready to work your butt off. There are also many, many opportunities to get tutoring on various subjects.
C A+F Campus Strictness: It's pretty good as far as strictness goes. They really enforce cheating and plagiarism policies, so DON'T DO IT! Also strict with download a lot of stuff off their network. Everything else is just based on weather you get caught, but they don't go inspecting you unless it's completely obvious.
B A+F Transportation: The bus transits (school and public) are free for students and will take you to about anywhere you need to go. Very convenient, especially for just getting around campus.
B A+F Local Atmosphere: It's very nice here and not very loud for a city. Lot's of nice people and lot's of places to go hangout and do fun stuff. If you have a backpack on, you're assumed you are a student, and it's the norm.

Overall, the students' experience with NCSU is that it provides them with a rich learning environment. Students learn to balance play and work. Some come to NC State because of family tradition, to get away from the cold, or because of the College of Engineering-but whatever the reason is for the individual, positive feedback always finds its way out. Professors at the University will go above and beyond their call of duty. You make lifelong friends, and you have a huge list of organizations to partake in. Whether you're involved in a college sport, student government, or the Agribusiness Club, you will find your niche here among the thousands of students. Some professors will take you under their wing, and you will learn enormous amounts of information from them. These professors will also become lifelong connections who will probably end up writing letters of recommendation for you when it is time for you to find a job.
NC State wants its students to succeed not only in academics, but in life, too. Here you learn important lifelong skills that are essential to your survival in the real world. Classes can be rigorous and stressful, but students find a way to overcome hardships and get through. Professors will push you to do your best, but at the same time, they understand what it was like to be a student. NC State will help you become an expert in your subject of choice, and with the large number of students, you will come out of college ready to work in some of the most diverse settings.

Suggestion: Give users a way to download their Rockband 2 songs without the use of Rockband 3. I don't have Rockband 3, and while it seems like a fun game, the only songs I have access to currently are Rockband 1 songs (my Lego Rockband had a faulty and irretrievable code and Rockband 2 has no method) and the countless DLC's I purchased for that game.
I think the brilliance of Blitz is the ability to reuse DLC purchased for a different title. Blitz does not play like Rockband, nor should it. The use of content purchased for other titles makes this game very interesting and I applaud the use.
Suggestion: A playlist mode similar to that in the previous rockbands. Playing a few songs back to back would be quite neat, or sending a friend a playlist they can attempt to score against. Coins do not need to be granted for these unless a method to remove exploitation could be easily found.
Thank you for your time. -Adam

Ages 45+
First date jitters, need advice!
I met a man on another, non-Catholic, dating site. We talked online a bit, met for coffee and now are scheduled to go to the movies tonight. This is my first date since my husband died in August 2011.
I don't feel any sparks at all, but he has said he's definitely interested in me. He keeps telling me how pretty I am. For some reason,. that makes me uncomfortable. It could be because I have never really considered myself pretty or maybe it's getting a compliment like that from someone who isn't my late husband?
We were supposed to go out last night but something came up. He was disappointed and I was relieved. I'm actually thinking of cancelling tonight.
Is it because I don't see a future for us (after such a short acquaintance and he isn't Catholic)? Could it be that I'm not ready yet? Should I go tonight and see how it goes? He wants to pick me up but I think I'm going to insist on meeting him. I'm very nervous about being alone in a car with him. I have no idea why. He seems perfectly pleasant.
Since I'm so anxious about this date, should I cancel or should I go through with it? Should I give it some time or tell him right away that I don't see us being anything more than friends, if that? HELP! Maybe I'm just nervous because this ismy first date in 35 years?
To my way of thinking a movie is not a place to go for a "first" date. The movie has the first billing.
A better choice would be to meet for a lunch or dinner, a walk in the park or even stopping at a Subway and making it a picnic, meeting in the park.
The reasoning for my suggestions is that you have time for communications, talk to each other, and determine if you are really interested in each other.
The movie takes up time that you could be learning more about each other and usually would know if you wanted to continue dating.
For someone that you don't know I would suggest meeting at the place that you are going. That way if things don't go the way you were thinking you can leave at your convenience, not relying on your date to get you home.
Cynthia, you already met him for coffee. What else do you know about him? I mean, is there any reason to be concerned about your safety or him knowing where you live?
Do you not know him well enough to ride in a car with him? It's ok if the answer is no. It's ok to meet him at the theatre. If your gut is simply nervous versus legetimate personal safety concerns, yes you should go. Sounds like you need the practice! Is there a girl friend who could go and keep an eye on you two? Might help! I've taken a friend on a first date when I wasn't comfortable with the location. The guy was super sweet. There weren't any problems. We just weren't a match!
Cynthia, I'm thinking you have the jitters because it's the first time in 35 years! This is not easy!!!
The general advice to anyone beginning to see someone who is virtually a stranger is that a movie is not a good 1st date choice (see the sensible post by the gentleman here) and that you should not be in a car alone with this "stranger" this early on. If you're feeling uncomfortable because of his comments, it could be for a variety of reasons, but we are constantly told to follow our gut instinct.
I hope it's not too late to change your plans. I would not totally cancel, but say you have a Plan B which is to meet him for coffee or a sandwich at a nearby popular restaurant--Panera's, for example. Then when you are with him, listen & watch carefully for any signs that would verify or deny any of these concerns you're having. Please be careful, but do try to enjoy yourself.
It's not a date if you dont' like him. So nothing to be nervous about!
And I would say the first date was when you met him for coffee.
Like Lisa said, what more do you need to know?
If you really don't like him, I would not go out with him. It's not fair, because it sounds like he likes you.
I am sure it is hard to accept compliments from a man who is not your husband.
But I would say if you want practice in socializing, then go. If you don't, and only want to go on an outing with something you are really interested in, then this man deserves more, and you should cancel.
Thank you to everyone.
I just spoke with him and we are going to meet at the theater. It's not that I'm afraid to be in a car with him, just uncomfortable. I don't think it's anything to do with him.
I think I'm just going to ask him to slow it down on the "I'll miss you" and stuff a bt, that I need more time. I'm heading to Florida on Saturday to visit my mom for 2 weeks, so that will give us both time to just talk on the phone and get to know each other that way too.
If nothing else, I'm getting my toes into the water, right? If I truly end up feeling that it isn't right, I'll let him know right away. I'm not the kind of person to string someone along.
It's not that I'm afraid to be in a car with him, just uncomfortable. I don't think it's anything to do with him.

If nothing else, I'm getting my toes into the water, right? If I truly end up feeling that it isn't right, I'll let him know right away. I'm not the kind of person to string someone along.
Yes, Cynthia, he's going way too fast on the "I'll miss you" comments! I wanted to make a statement like that to someone I had been seeing for a little longer than you have this guy & was advised NOT to push it forward too fast. Getting to know him better during the time you're visiting your mom will help for the next time you get together.
Getting your toes in the water is a good thing, but please do follow what your instincts tell you.
As I said, advice from a dating expert (Amy Owens, The Singles Coach, from Indianapolis) cautions against being in a car with your date the first couple of times--just for safety's sake. If you're uncomfortable, heed that feeling!!!
1. Go.
2. Treat it as a casual get-together with someone new. He is YOUR guinea-pig, to see if you are ready to date yet. (I suspect that you aren't.)
3. Don't discuss "where do we go from here?" or "You're not Catholic." It's irrelevant. You're going to the movies, that's all.
4. If you met him on a non-Catholic site and he's giving you the "You're so pretty" business -- be prepared to smack him down.
5. Keep it real.
6. Guard your heart.
7. Don't put up with any crap.
Don't worry about whether you're being afraid -- you are being SMART.

PHILADELPHIA – Charlie Manuel doesn't name names.
It's one of his strengths as a manager. He stays within the good graces of the guys he counts on for seven months a year because he doesn't air out his grievances publicly; if he has a problem or criticism for a player, he does it with that player, behind closed doors.
But you didn't have to read too far in between the lines following Saturday's sleepy 5-0 defeat to figure out the manager had struggling left fielder/first baseman John Mayberry Jr. in mind when he was asked about the lack of extra-base hit power in his current lineup.
Mayberry went 0-for-4 in Saturday's loss. He's hitting .222 with one extra-base hit in eight games.
"We will definitely have a better offense than you have seen the last couple of days," Manuel said, talking about the offense at large. "We need to get guys like (Laynce) Nix and (Ty) Wigginton hitting and some of those guys because they have numbers, power and good swings. At the same time, the guys that have been on the field, they've got to hit. This is a good chance.
"If I was a bench player on our team and guys get hurt, this would be a great opportunity for me. Everyone is talking about how good we can play. If I'm that guy, this is a great chance to step up. There are guys on our team that are trying too hard. We've got to get over that."
With Ryan Howard on the disabled list while recovering from left Achilles surgery, Mayberry is just the kind of guy Manuel was talking about, even if he never said his name out loud. After the offseason ended, Mayberry figured to be in line for regular at-bats in either first base or left field, where Raul Ibanez vacated the position when he became a free agent in November.
But Mayberry said he wasn't pressing in an effort to keep that everyday job.
"No, I think everybody is still pretty relaxed," said Mayberry, who has started seven of the first eight games. "I think everyone is just trying to be themselves. It's just one of those things where this is a game of ups and downs, hot stretches and cold stretches."
Mayberry's hot stretch in the final two months of last season led many to believe that he could help fill the power void vacated by Howard.
In 42 games in August and September, Mayberry hit .301 with a .963 OPS (on-base plus slugging), nine home runs and 23 RBIs. Of his 34 hits, 14 went for extra bases.
The same gap-power stroke has been nonexistent since spring training began, however. Mayberry hit .203 in 30 games this spring and didn't hit a home run until the final game in Clearwater
In the first eight games of the regular season, he has one extra-base hit, a double on Opening Day, to go along with one RBI, eight strikeouts and no walks.
"I think it's just one of those stretches," Mayberry said. "You go through periods of time when nothing you do is wrong, you're always centering the ball. You go through others when there's little drought. … I think I just have to keep it simple. Keep the same approach I've always had and I'm confident it will pay off."
At the end of Saturday's game, the Phillies starting pitching staff had a 2.58 ERA through the season's first eight games, which ranked second best in the National League behind Washington (1.89 ERA). But nearly every Phils' starter has suffered through first-inning hiccups.
In the home opener on Monday, Cole Hamels gave up back-to-back hits to the two Marlins' burners at the top of the order, fueling the way for the Marlins to grad an early 1-0 lead. A night later, Roy Halladay had to escape a base-loaded jam in the first.
On Friday against the Mets, Cliff Lee put the Phils in a 3-0 hole in the first inning. Vance Worley found out he wasn't immune to the first-inning bug Saturday.
After getting the first two hitters out, Worley saw his first-pitch fastball to David Wright deposited into the shrubbery beyond the center field fence to give New York a 1-0 lead. Just two hours earlier, Wright was taking batting practice to see if right pinky finger, which he broke Monday, would allow him to play or lead to a stint on the disabled list.
"I didn't expect him swinging first pitch," Worley said of Wright, who had missed the previous three games. "Good for him. Wright was right."
Worley would allow three more runs in the fourth, including a two-run home run to Lucas Duda. But Wright's home run in the first turned out to be the only offense the Mets would need to beat Worley and the Phillies.
"It was supposed to be a fastball away and it just ran back over the middle," Worley said. "Normally, it would have been away."
Jose Contreras threw a scoreless sixth inning at Class A Clearwater on Friday night and could be activated off the disabled list as soon as today.
Contreras, who had elbow surgery in September, worked a perfect inning against Lakeland, striking out one. It marked the first time the 40-year-old reliever had pitched on back-to-back days during his rehab.
Since Contreras has thrown consistently in games for a month without a setback, working in back-to-back games was seen as the last hurdle to his return to the Phillies bullpen.
Contreras was limited to 17 games last year and hasn't pitched in a big league game since June 19. If Contreras is activated today, left-hander Joe Savery is a likely candidate to be optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

The third storm to hit Northern California in as many days will bring heavy rain and wind to the Bay Area and more snow to the Sierras, according to KTVU.com.
Forecasters are predicting a rapid rise in the water levels of streams and creeks.
KTVU.com also reports that a state Highway Patrol helicopter crew was credited with the dramatic rescue of a 58-year-old motorist clinging to the roof of his pickup after his truck was stranded in rushing flood waters on a rural roadway in Livermore late Sunday. He was plucked from the truck by a paramedic on a CHP helicopter and treated for hypothermia at a hospital.
The storms have also dumped fresh snow on the ski resorts at Lake Tahoe, including more than three feet at Squaw Valley, helping the resort reach its second-largest Christmas Day snowpack since 1970, said spokeswoman Amelia Richmond.
"The conditions are phenomenal, especially for those who like fresh snow," Richmond said Sunday. "It's an incredible setup (for the holidays), and we're looking forward to a very white Christmas."
KTVU.com also reports that an avalanche at Donner Ski Ranch claimed the life of a 49-year-old snowboarder on Monday after he was buried in 2-3 feet of snow. An Alpine Meadows ski patroller was hospitalized on Monday after being buried in a slide that was intentionally set with an explosive device. He was uncovered within eight minutes.
"The charge triggered the avalanche, which broke much higher and wider on the slope than previously observed in past snow safety missions," Alpine Meadows said in a statement.
A winter weather advisory was issued for the northern Sierra for Christmas Day, the National Weather Service said.

Gubler op-ed published in The Wall Street Journal
Zachary Gubler
An op-ed piece, "Inventive Funding Deserves Creative Regulation," by Associate Professor
Zachary Gubler
, recently was published in The Wall Street Journal.
The Feb. 1 piece discussed "crowd funding," the use of the Internet to sell securities to ordinary investors. Congress passed a law last year that effectively removed the securities law barriers to crowd funding and left it to the SEC to adopt rules to regulate this new market. The SEC has asked for more time to create the applicable rules.
In his article, Gubler argues that, because of a lack of precedent, less time should be spent trying to get the rules right in advance. Instead, he says, an experiment should be set up that will make it more likely that the rules are right in the future.
He suggests that the SEC adopt rules that would expire in a few years with the goal of generating data that could then be used to decide on future policy.
Gubler joined the ASU law faculty in 2011 after having spent two years at Harvard Law School as a Climenko Fellow. Earlier in his career, he worked as a corporate associate at Cravath, Swaine & Moore, a New York-based law firm.

In effort to desegregate the Charlotte-Mecklenburg school system, the court examined various types of desegregation plans proposed by the school system. Situations in which racial segregation occured despite facially neutral language in the plan were considered "de facto segregation."
De Facto Segregation
During racial integration efforts in schools during the 1960's, "de facto segregation" was a term used to describe a situation in which legislation did not overtly segregate students by race, but nevertheless school segregation continued.
This Court has not had to deal with nonracially motivated de facto segregation, that is, racial imbalance resulting fortuitously in a school system based on a single neighborhood school serving all white and Negro children in a certain attendance area or neighborhood.

In France, the very serious "UFC Que Choisir" organization (focused on protecting consumers of all kinds of products) has received over 1500 complaints in 4 days from gamers about connect-ability issues and has asked Blizzard to have a permanent solution within 15 days and to communicate completely and transparently about problems encountered in due time.
They are also requesting that affected gamers be given damages for troubles they may have had, and, in a much broader but more official manner, are asking the DGCCRF to have a close look at online-only DRMed games and how they work, including economically. They basically feel that it's wrong to assume that an entire nation (well, at least France) has equal internet quality and reception across its entire territory and hence, online-only seems are harmful for some (many?) consumers (which is who they're trying to protect).

A 43-year-old woman called police after she was trampled by numerous customers during the Thanksgiving Day sales event at Walmart.
According to the Germantown police log:
The woman stated she was in the video gaming section of the electronics department to purchase advertised video games at Walmart, W190 N9855 Appleton Ave., shortly after 8 p.m. Thanksgiving Day. When employees started handing out the special sale-priced video games, customers behind her began to trample and push her as they tried to grab the products for themselves.
The woman sustained minor injuries to her right wrist and right ankle and declined medical treatment.
She was unable to identify anyone involved in the melee and told police she would be filing an incident report with Walmart management.

Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act (1930) (Major Acts of Congress)
Adam P. Plant
Many people reading this entry might know the following and no more about the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act (P.L. 71-361, 46 Stat. 590):
Economics teacher: In 1930, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, in an effort to alleviate the effects of the ... Anyone? Anyone? ... the Great Depression, passed the ... Anyone? Anyone? The tariff bill? The Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or lowered? ... raised tariffs, in an effort to collect more revenue for the federal government. Did it work? Anyone? Anyone know the effects? It did not work, and the United States sank deeper into the Great Depression. Today we have a similar debate over this. Anyone know what this is? Class? Anyone? Anyone? Anyone seen this before? The Laffer Curve. Anyone know what this says? It says that at this point on the revenue curve, you will get exactly the same amount of revenue as at this point. This is very controversial. Does anyone know what Vice President [George H. W.] Bush called this in 1980? Anyone? Something-d-o-o economics. "Voodoo" economics.
Ah, yes, those lines delivered to a deeply disinterested high school class occur in one of the most memorable scenes in coming-of-age-film history. But what was not covered by actor Ben Stein speechwriter (under President Richard M. Nixon) turned comedian and actorn that economics lecture? What else can this entry teach us about the economic climate surrounding the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act that the film Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986) did not? Anyone? Anyone? We will soon see.
The most important thing to know about the economic climate that spawned the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act (and the other tariff bills that came before it) is this: in the days in which those acts were written, April 15 had much less significance than it does today. Federal income taxes, though authorized by the Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution, were much lower and barely affected most Americans.
Tariffs had been a major topic of U.S. economic policy since 1789, when President George Washington's administration used a tariff to raise revenue to help fund the new national government. However, tariffs were used for other reasons as well. Sometimes the U.S. government placed tariffs on certain finished goods or raw materials to gain an economic advantage over foreign nations that sent a lot of goods to America. It also used these "protective tariffs" to keep foreign industries (for example, the English iron industry) from outselling and driving out of business comparable American industries (like the American iron and steel industry) because the foreign industry was either more established, had a better product, or sell their product at a cheaper price than could its American counterpart. The use of protective tariffs was a divisive issue to many Americans, such as those in the South, who sold agricultural goods or raw materials to overseas industries that would make the finished products. In fact, at times foreign nations who traded with America but were hurt by the use of these tariffs would enact their own tariffs on American goods sold in their country, therefore making the American goods more expensive abroad and less likely to be purchased.
So, tariffs could either be for revenue, trade, or protectionist purposes. In the economic climate of the late 1800s and early 1900s, the tariff issue came to a head in American politics.
In the 1890s following the Civil War, the nation was in a period of rapid growth. It went from thirty-five states in 1867 to forty-eight states in 1912, and with the growing national government came the responsibility for funding
It was under these conditions that the McKinley Tariff was passed in 1890. In the presidential election of 1888, Republican Benjamin Harrison defeated Democrat Grover Cleveland, who had supported free trade (trade among nations without tariff restrictions). President Harrison's administration believed that American industries needed protection, so they wanted to pass protective tariffs. In fact, protectionist economic policies became the foundation of the Republican Party's economic outlook for the next two decades. The McKinley Tariff was the first in a string of tariff-raising bills that would set U.S. economic policy. It raised the tariff rate to a record high of 48 percent. It also set off a trend of American trading partners passing tariffs of their own in retaliation for the McKinley Tariff's passage.
The second major tariff passed during that era was the Payne-Aldrich Tariff. This bill, passed in 1909 by a Republican-controlled Congress, attempted to lower the average tariff rate paid on imported goods. However, the act caused little real change in the economic landscape of the United States. Politically, it angered progressive Democrats who had begun to gain some national prominence.
With Congress was so closely divided between the Democrats and Republicans, the Democrats were able to secure the proposal of the Sixteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution on July 12, 1909, in exchange for the Payne-Aldrich bill's passing. The Sixteenth Amendment was ratified on February 3, 1913, and created the federal income tax, giving the U.S. government an alternative manner in which they could fund the federal government. The United States then became less reliant on the income tariffs produced. At last, the Democrats had gained a foothold in developing the economic policies of the United States.
The final important precursor to the Smoot-Hawley Act was the Underwood-Simmons Tariff, which was passed in 1913 shortly after the Sixteenth
The immediate economic boom right after World War I led to high expectations that were unrealized once the postwar economy returned to normal. Further, the policies passed during the 1920s reflected the Republican Party's belief that it was best to allow industry to drive the country as an economic engine. Congress passed bills setting low taxes on income and investment and establishing policies unfavorable toward international trade. However, a massive crisis unfolded that would severely hamper the nation's economy. In October of 1929 the stock market crashed, sending the country toward the Great Depression. Many major industries lost money in the market's crash, and workers at all levels were hurt either by the loss of their savings or their jobs. By 1932 almost one-quarter of Americans were unemployed.
It was in the middle of this rapidly deteriorating economic situation that the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act was passed. The country sank deeper into the Great Depression because of the poor economic climate created in the 1920s, high unemployment rates, and other nations that enacted their own protectionist trade measures in retribution.

Foreclosure Information (provided by RealtyStore)
This property is in initial default, also known as Pre-Foreclosure. The homeowner of this property has missed at least one payment and is now considered delinquent. In order to avoid a full foreclosure, the homeowner may be willing to sell this home at an attractive price. No asking price is posted on Pre-Foreclosures because these properties are not formally listed on the market for sale yet. Instead, the original loan balance is presented. Use this amount, along with local sale price comparables to establish a reasonable offer on this home.
