Rear Window (1954) is without a doubt Alfred Hitchcock's way of expressing "pure cinema," meaning film at its peak. He was always working with the mise-en-scenic structure of art and filmmaking. It is considered one of the benchmarks of his career. Based on the short story by crime writer, Cornell Woolrich, entitled "It Had to Be Murder," the plot follows a photographer (a poignant way of expressing the story and cinematographic his techniques) confined in his apartment, seeing through his "rear window" suspects that murder has been taken place in another apartment. The situtation becomes dangerous to be heavily involved with. Of course, changes were made to Hitchcock's adaptation, such as the ending, the replacement of caretakers, and a romantic love interest with the main character.
However, what makes Rear Window faithful to the original work was the overall theme of voyeurism. Both Hitchcock and Woolrich follow the idea that people are practically all "peeping toms." This puts in context, the idea of giving our own perspective to what we are able to see and assume, it is a conflicting issue of how we deal with spying. The film is a way of analyzing other people's private lives and knowing their secrets. In common sense, we, both the viewer and reader, become confined as well to this one apartment, so we instantly become the observer. It tries to twist our aptitude. Hitchcock plays with the audience not seeing everything that involves the murder plot, so it creates the suspense and rural imagery that we have come to suspect. Woolrich does the same quite well.
Another way that makes the film essential to the original work was the environment itself. The protagonist's apartment becomes the entity that we see. In the original story, it does take place in apartment complexes, but it does not give off the little play-lets (sub-dramas) or the sub-arcs that involve the tenants in the other apartment windows that can be seen in the film. In fact, Hitchcock enhances this usage by giving the impression of natural apartment life, especially with the diegetic sound such as planes going by, the busy street, and people shouting. We are able to see distinctive private lives of all these tenants.
I think one of the reasons for adding a female character, a romantic interest, was probably a balance for a target audience, possible brand names, or the fact that there is a female blond in all of Hitchcock's films. Whatever it may have been, it worked. Grace Kelly in Rear Window plays the entrancing, alluring beauty of the female character that you cannot possibly lay a finger on. Another Hitchcock trademark is how he plays with sex in a robust way without really interpreting it in terms of dialogue. These tactics really broke the limits of American filmmaking and became a way of tackling with real lives. In fact, the film version deals with relationships both love and aspiration.
Rear Window is a master film that worked so well going back to its original form by Cornell Woolich. Hitchcock, being fond of criminal novels and short acts, wanted this to be on his plate. Rear Window works extremely prominent in a cinematic structure of telling a story. Both the film and short story are something to view more than once. It definitely confronts our way of dealing with scopophilia like the protagonist does, but either way, we are drawn into these characters.

SDLA and SDCUC Remind Consumers of Ethanol's Benefits
Today in Sioux Falls, the South Dakota Lung Association in conjunction with the South Dakota Corn Utilization Council celebrated, National Alternative Fuel Vehicle Day, to raise awareness about the use of alternative fuel and advanced technology vehicles. The event took place at King's Mart Gas Station, the first fuel retailer in Sioux Falls to offer ethanol blender pumps within the city. The event was part of 100 plus sites participating across the country.
"With this program we were able to educate a large number of local consumers on the benefits of using E85 and other clean-burning ethanol blends in their vehicles," said Lindsey Mckenzie of the South Dakota American Lung Association.
"Grassroots events like this are a great way to inform folks about importance of ethanol," said Teddi Mueller, Industry Affairs Director of the SDCUC. "It's all about having a choice at the pump."
Quick ethanol facts:
A typical FFV driver can prevent 4 tons of lifecycle carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and other harmful pollutants from entering our air every year by fueling with E85 instead of gasoline.
Using E85 can reduce tailpipe emissions such as ozone-forming pollutants by about 20%.
Corn ethanol burns 52% cleaner than conventional gasoline.
One acre of corn can remove 8 tons of harmful greenhouse gases.
Ethanol fuel will also reduce evaporative emissions of air toxics and ozone formers.
Ethanol fuel is renewable and locally grown, produced, purchased and sold.
"Clean air is something that affects everyone, and National Alternative Fuel Vehicle Day is great way to inform people about what they can do to improve the environment," added Mckenzie

South Dakota Well Represented on National Corn Committees
Six South Dakota Corn board directors will represent growers through various National Corn Grower Association committees and action teams. The new committees start on October 1 of this year.
Those board directors include:
Jim Burg, Wesington Springs, SD: Production and Stewardship Action Team
Walt Bones, Chancellor, SD: Public Policy Action Team
Keith Alverson, Chester, SD: Ethanol Committee-Chairman
Chad Blindaur, Mitchell, SD: Trade Policy and Biotechnology Action Team-Chairman
Bill Chase, Wolsey, SD: BNSF Railway Ag Business Council, Association Relations Committee-Chairman
Darrin Ihnen, Hurley, SD: Association Relations Committee, Monsanto Grower Advisory Committee, Nominating Committee-Ch airman, AIC Executive Committee-Co-Chair
"The action teams and committees are an important part of what makes our association a respected leader in the industry and a powerful voice in Washington," said incoming NCGA President Bart Schott, a farmer from Kulm, N.D. "It was inspiring to see so many farmers with passion and dedication who were interested in sacrificing time for these volunteer assignments."
"Our directors share a common passion in improving conditions for all growers in our state and understand how important their voice can be on national and international levels," said South Dakota Corn Executive Director, Lisa Richardson. "These committees can be time very time consuming with travel and phone calls, but our directors consider these appointments as opportunities rather than commitments."
Recognizing Hurley Farmer and NCGA President, Darrin Ihnen
Darrin Ihnen was born and raised on a family farm in rural Hurley, South Dakota. Agriculture is just something that has always been important in Darrin's life.
"Darrin showed interest in farming when he was in FFA in school. He had livestock out here He had hogs and did some farrowing and he did other projects and was quite active in FFA, so that's when I knew he wanted to be a farmer," said Roger Ihnen, Darrin's father.
Today, Darrin farms corn, soybeans and wheat with his father. They also have a hog finishing and a cow/calf operation. Darrin attended South Dakota State University, studying Ag Business, and he and his wife, Becky, have four children: Kelsey, Kayla, Kilee and Jacob.
Darrin's leadership in agriculture includes being active on the South Dakota Corn Council board. Ihnen is a past president of the SDCGA and also served as Vice-President of the NCGA before his current role as President. He is also a board member of POET Biorefining in Chancellor, S.D. Ihnen played a key role in the birth and growth of the locally owned ethanol plant.
"Darrin actually brought the producers over and they started their own group making possible the 100 million gallon, farmer-owned ethanol plant," said Lisa Richardson, Executive Director of SDCGA. "I have watched Darrin develop into a leader who people follow…he's a gentle giant in our industry,"
Darrin's leadership in agriculture has been widely noted on the local, state and national level.
"Darrin's been a great representative for South Dakota agriculture generally, but also for South Dakota Corn Growers and now, of course, for national corn growers," said United States Senator, John Thune.
The National Corn Growers Association is the largest trade group representing corn growers in the United States. The group has more than 35,000 national members while representing 300,000 corn farmers who are members of state organizations. NCGA and its 48 affiliated state associations and check off organizations work together to create and increase opportunities for their members and their industry.
NCGA CEO, Rick Tollman, said, "We've had a long history of outstanding leaders in the National Corn Growers. I am impressed again that the right person seems to come to the forefront at the right time. And Darrin is among the best of those."
House Bill 1192 Would Add More Blender Pumps to the State
South Dakota has always been a leader in renewable fuels and current state legislation looks to make sure that the progress continues.
House Bill 1192 would create a grant program using $1 million in federal stimulus money through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and would be used for the installation of additional ethanol blender pumps in South Dakota.
The grants would be issued between April 1 and May 28 of 2010 exceeding no more than $10,000. Gas stations are allowed to receive more than one grant if they choose to install multiple blender pumps.
The prime sponsor of the bill, Representative Mitch Fargen of District 8, received bipartisan support as the bill passed the House State Affairs Committee unanimously 13-0 on Thursday, Feb. 18. The bill now moves into the Senate for consideration.
The bill is modeled after past blender pump infrastructure programs developed by the South Dakota Corn Utilization Council which has been successful in establishing over 40 blender pumps across the state.
Ron Lamberty of the American Coalition for Ethanol states, "The blender pump has become a reasonable solution to the challenge of increasing the availability of E85 and ethanol blends beyond E10. In addition to the fact that blender pumps give the marketer the ability to offer those higher blends without replacing underground storage tanks and fuel lines – a huge cost savings – the pumps are used by every customer that comes to a station, which means all purchases help with the payback of the pump, making payback of the non-flex fuel portion much faster."
Ethanol blender pumps are nothing new to South Dakota. In fact, South Dakota was the first state to install the pumps thanks to the South Dakota Corn Utilization Council. SDCUC continues to be a leader in the ethanol industry by adding additional infrastructure and looks to continue its progress with the current legislation.
Owen Jones, a farmer and rancher from Britton, SD writes, "With the incentives outlined in HB 1192, the State of South Dakota can play a significant role in getting the proper distribution system in place for the future of renewable fuels. Instead of dispensing one product, five different products can be dispensed from one pump. Another reason I am very supportive of this Bill is the fact that this legislation is not only good for the ethanol industry, but it is good for our nation. We need to rid ourselves of the addiction on foreign oil and change to a renewable fuel system which our nation controls."

Coins, Stamps, and Quadratic Residues
Event details
from 03:00 PM to 04:00 PM
James Joseph Sylvester determined the largest integer number that could not represented as the sum of multiples of two integers a and b whose greatest common divisor was 1. This represents the solution to a problem of Frobenius concerning what would be the largest sum for which a shopkeeper could not make change if coins of denominations a and b are available. It turns out that problems of this kind have an interesting connection to the solution of quadratic congruences. Solving the Frobenius problem with more than two coins available is not totally resolved.

As this is the inaugural EP for Empire Cinema, how did your band form?
JD: I answered an ad, and through that we started jamming and definitely found our common place in music. And then we met Jimi Bob
BH: Jimi Bob actually worked next to me and we've been friends for a couple years now. He'd always come out to the shows.
JD: Now we have Christian on guitar and you can hear him on the backing vocals. He definitely brings another brand of musicianship. And from there.
What does the band name mean to you?
BH: Jimi Bob is not a nerd. But Christian, Jeff and I will more than happily raise our hands as [being a] little bit of a nerd. We're big Star Wars fans, and I'm a bit of a history buff as well. If the Emperor from Star Wars had his own propaganda film industry, what would he call it? Empire Cinema
What has been your favorite band to play with so far?
BH: We opened for Cursive, which is absolutely freaking mind blowing.
You can catch Empire Cinema's EP Release show on Friday, Dec. 16 at New World Brewery. For more information, click here.
Here is a cover of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" from Empire Cinema's show with Cursive:

DENVER -- (BUSINESS WIRE) -- EMC2 Data, a developer of regression analysis-based valuation technology, has appointed Michael "Mike" Larssen, CMB, as CEO. Larssen is responsible for leading the company as it helps to establish the new era of valuations.
"It was extremely important for us to assemble a team of individuals who not only possess mortgage industry knowledge, but also the vision to help us usher the industry forward in a manner that ensures we do not repeat the mistakes of the past," said Jim Silva, co-founder and chairman of the board for EMC2 Data. "Mike believes, as I do, that as we enter this next phase of the housing market, it is imperative that we establish more proactive and positive valuation best practices. I look forward to working with Mike in this game-changing venture."
Before Larssen joined EMC2 Data as CEO, he founded Larssen Consulting Group in Clearwater, Fla., a firm that specializes in solving strategic challenges for lenders and expanding originations via recruiting, mergers and acquisitions. Prior to that, he was chief credit officer and national sales manager of Atlanta-based Correspondent One, where he was responsible for the credit policy, oversight of outsourced due diligence functions and business development. Larssen also was a founding member of St. Louis-based Lenders One Mortgage Cooperative, and was the company's EVP helping expand its membership to more than 250 members while generating streams of revenue from their aggregated $180 billion of volume in 2012. Earlier in his career, he was EVP at Mortgage Investors Group in Knoxville, Tenn., an originator with $2 billion of primarily retail annual volume and SVP at Columbia Home Loans in Valhalla, N.Y.
"My past business experiences have confirmed that, now more than ever, our industry needs to recognize the importance of providing the most accurate and efficient property valuation solutions, which are the foundation of a healthy mortgage finance industry," Larssen explained. "I am confident in our ability to improve the technology and approach that will deliver innovative and sound changes to valuations that we need. As the industry continues to rebound, there is no better time to re-evaluate processes and take steps to improve and revitalize our industry."
Larssen received his Certified Mortgage Banker (CMB) distinction in 2005 and today is an active member of the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) where he has served on the MBA Fraud and Ethics Committee. He was previously the vice president of the Knoxville, Tenn. MBA . Currently, Larssen is a member of the Interthinx National Fraud Advisory Council. He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science and government from St. John's University in New York City.

NEW DELHI — India agreed Friday to open its huge market to foreign retailers such as Wal-Mart in a surprising decision that was part of a flurry of economic reforms aimed at sparking new growth in the country's sputtering economy.
The Cabinet's decision — after a similar proposal was withdrawn under withering criticism last year — immediately generated optimism that a government plagued by scandal was finally breaking out of the political paralysis that had stifled reforms for months.
"This is a landmark decision in India's economic reforms process," said Rajan Bharti Mittal, whose retail company, Bharti Enterprises, has a joint venture with Wal-Mart.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said the reforms were made to spur economic growth and to attract foreign investment.
"I believe that these steps will help strengthen our growth process and generate employment in these difficult times," he wrote on his Twitter account, appealing for public support.
However, political opponents and even some allies, decried the decision to allow in international supermarket chains, saying it would hurt small retailers and farmers.
"(It) will lead to job losses for millions of our people," D. Raja, a Communist Party lawmaker, told the NDTV news channel.
The Cabinet also agreed to allow foreign investment in airlines and to sell stakes in state-owned companies. On Thursday, the government decided to reduce fuel subsidies and allow the price of diesel to rise, a move hailed by the business community but criticized by political allies and opponents.
The decision on retail investment Friday would allow foreign firms to own a majority stake in multi-brand retailers here for the first time. However, individual states would have the right to decide whether to let the retailers operate from their territory.
States led by the ruling Congress party would be most likely to allow them, meaning the big cities of New Delhi and Mumbai would have new shopping options.
U.S.-based Wal-Mart, British-based Tesco PLC, French-based retailer Carrefour and others have been interested in entering India, a country of 1.2 billion people where retail is the second-biggest industry behind agriculture.
Commerce Minister Anand Sharma said India badly needed the infrastructure investment that would come from these firms. Currently, about 35 to 40 percent of produce rots before it gets to the stores, he said.
Under the Cabinet decision, at least 50 percent of the foreign investment would have to be in back-end infrastructure, such as processing, distribution and storage.
"It will generate large numbers of jobs in rural India for our men and women," Sharma said.
The government said farmers would benefit because less of their produce would rot, small retailers would become more competitive and efficient and consumers will get lower prices and better quality. The policy would also bring in badly needed inflows of investment and foreign currency.
The government had agreed on the same proposal last year but then withdrew that decision because of protests from coalition partners, a capitulation that badly damaged its credibility with international investors.
Since then, economic growth has fallen, with business leaders and analysts blaming the government's inability to make needed reforms.
Kunal Ghosh, a spokesman for government ally Trinamool Congress, said his party continued to oppose the plan but would not say whether it would withdraw support from the coalition.
The government relaxed rules on foreign investment in the broadcast industry and in power exchanges, which provides a platform for companies to buy and sell power.

Is it okay to take cinnamon/chromium along with metformin?
- Q: Is it okay to take cinnamon/chromium along with metformin?
- A: Metformin (brand name: Glucophage) is used to help control blood sugar levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. Cinnamon and chromium are dietary supplements that may help reduce blood sugar levels. Products that are sold as dietary or nutritional supplements in the United States do not undergo the same detailed testing that prescription drug products do to show that they are safe and effective. Supplement products can be marketed without any reliable scientific evidence of health benefits as long as the companies selling them do not claim the supplements can prevent, treat, or cure any specific disease. In addition, most supplements have not been tested to find out if they interact with medicines, foods, or other herbs and supplements. Generally speaking, drug interactions fall into three main categories: Drug-drug (i.e., prescription, over-the-counter, herbals, dietary supplements) interactions occur when two or more drugs react with each other. Drug-diet (food/drink) interactions result from drugs reacting with foods or drinks. Drug-disease interactions may occur when an existing medical condition makes certain drugs potentially harmful. The effect of cinnamon and chromium on metformin has not been studied; however, if the dietary supplements lower blood sugar levels, it is possible that the effect of metformin will be enhanced. This interaction could cause an increase in side effects, including low blood sugar levels or hypoglycemia. Monitoring of blood sugar levels is recommended. Patients should also be aware of the symptoms of hypoglycemia, which include cold sweat, blurred vision, dizziness, drowsiness, shaking, fast heartbeat, headache, fainting, tingling of the hands/feet, and hunger, and report them to their doctor if they occur. When your doctor prescribes a new medication, be sure to discuss all your prescription and over-the-counter drugs, including dietary supplements, vitamins, botanicals, minerals, and herbals, as well as the foods you eat. Always keep a current list of the drugs and supplements you take and review it with your health care providers and your pharmacist. If possible, use one pharmacy for all your prescription medications and over-the-counter products. This allows your pharmacist to keep a complete record of all your prescription drugs and to advise you about drug interactions and side effects. For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action.

Dearest Mom,
On your 2nd Angelversary... I only hope that you are safe, happy, and at peace.
I cannot believe it has been two years. My, time does fly. It still feels like yesterday. It still feels so fresh, and the sadness never goes away. You just manage to get up everyday, and breathe.
The heavy heart I carry everyday longs to see you, longs to hear your laugh, and longs to have your near.
Two years ago today, my worst nightmare became a reality. Oh how I wish it was just a nightmare. I sit here and think how this should have never happened. It is so unfair, and it makes me so angry.
I know you were here Wednesday afternoon. Anyone who reads this may think I have lost my mind, and so be it, but you were here. The stereo couldn't have turned on itself, and played your favorite song, and right after that song, the song Oh Sherry played. How ironic? That was you, wasn't it?
We came to visit you today. It was so sad. We played your song while the balloons were sent to you. Hope we didn't disturb everyone in the cemetary. lol
I am doing ok. I just finished another class, and will have a week off. Just a few more classes, and I will be done.
Daddy sends his love, and Steven misses & loves you so much. I'm sure you hear him talk to you everyday.
I Love you Mom & I Miss You more and more each day.
I know I will see you again one day. I have faith that this is true, but until then.... I am sending Hugs & Kisses. XXX OOO
Love, You're Daughter Sheri
Hi Mom,
It has been two long years, and not a day goes by that I don't think of you.
We all miss you very much, and nothing is the same without you.
You always had that special way of lighting up our lives. You still do when we speak of you.
I miss you just as much as I miss my Mom and Dad. You were my second Mom, and you touched so many people. especially me.
Until I see you again... I hope you are in a better place without pain.
I Love You
Love Keith
Dear Mom, Happy 2nd Angelversary in Heaven
Mom 2 year's have gone by and it feels like yesterday. Everyday of my life I think if you are ok, and I try to tell myself... of cause you are. My mind wonders all the time. All my days, and my nights .
Everything I do, you are with me. I just don't know how to let go of the time you were in the hospital & everything you went through.
My Heart has pain all the time, So Mom ... if you could send me some sign tomorrow to let me know you are ok, Please.
I don't believe I will ever stop having visions of the days we had left to be with you.
I'm so empty inside at times.Things are, and never will be the same with out you physically being here.
Jimmyboy is in a new school & doing well. He is on the baseball team, and Mom... you know what a great baseball/sports player he is. People talk to me about him all the time. He grew like a weed, so tall.
He is a good kid & It hurts SO BAD that you are not here to see & be apart of him growing up. He sings to you all the time when playing his music on the paino.
I Love You & Miss You
Love, You're Daughter
Hi Grandma,
Its Jimmy. Sorry I dont write so often with school, and all but your 2 year Angelversary is coming up tomorrow, so I had to write.
I miss you. Well, we all miss you. We wish you were here to enjoy the finer things about life, but God wanted you for a reason.
I think about you every day. It may not seem like it, but I do.
I miss the way you would want to play with my ears so much, I cried sometimes. I'll see you tomorrow.
I'm doing a concert in your honor, so I hope you enjoy it.
Love you,
Jimmy boy

Hi all,
My mk.1 Maxx-D is showing its age now. The battery only lasts ~60mins. Plus 960 lumens is fine for a solo night ride but means I'm riding in my own shadow as others have 1200 lumens+
I want to try and upgrade the leds to XML at the same time as replacing the internal battery. Has anyone done this?
I've seen Troutie's Vision 4 upgrade so I'm hoping the Maxx-D upgrade will be very similar (unless there's a 4 up XML star I'm not aware of).

MOORESVILLE, N.C. – Parker Kligerman comes into Friday night's O'Reilly Auto Parts 300 at Texas Motor Speedway in Fort Worth riding the momentum of back-to-back top-10 finishes, including a series-best fourth-place finish at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, Calif. the last time that the NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) was in action. Now in search of his first NNS victory, Kligerman will be bringing extra horsepower to the 1.5-mile oval. That horsepower will not be found under the hood, rather on the hood, where his No. 77 Camry will be adorned with the logo of Camp Horsin' Around – a non-profit camp facility in Kentucky specifically designed and equipped to enrich the lives of children with serious, chronic illness and physical difficulties.
Camp Horsin' Around proved to be a lucky charm for Kligerman last season. The first time that the non-profit appeared on the hood of his No. 7 Tundra was at Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway, where the Connecticut native galloped to his first career T...

According to new White House economic data, the federal stimulus package has saved or created 650,000 jobs since it was rolled out earlier this year. But wait a second, TheStreet.com's Glenn Hall says; with stimulus spending at around $150 billion, this means that each job costs the government roughly $230,000, or four times the median household income. Ultimately, the government hopes the stimulus will create 3.5 million jobs after it's all been spent (we're only about a fifth of the way through), but the early numbers don't look particularly strong, Hall writes. According to Recovery.gov site, 30,000 jobs have been directly saved by federal contracts, while the rest of the jobs presumably came from a trickle-down effect. Moreover, Hall notes, if we follow the money, it looks as though a lot of bailout money has gone to big companies that have yet to actually create jobs. Lockheed Martin was given $165.9 million, Northrop Grumman received $57.6 million, and Sanofi-Aventis got $373.6 million, although none of these companies have actually created any jobs. "Maybe," Hall suggests, "the White House needs to create a few jobs itself to get a better tracking system."
Stimulus Saves 650,000 Jobs, at $230,000 A Pop
October 31, 2009More job creation talk
October 23, 2009The Washington Post reports:
It won't be called stimulus. And it won't cost anything close to $787 billion. But, despite record budget deficits, House leaders plan to pour more cash into piecemeal measures aimed at creating jobs and maintaining a safety net for the unemployed in hopes of preventing a still-fragile economy from lapsing back into recession, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Wednesday.
This will be my third time quoting this, but here is Henry Hazlitt's response to those who think government can create jobs:
For every public job created by a bridge project a private job has been destroyed somewhere else. We can see the men employed on the bridge. We can watch them at work…But there are other things that we do not see, because, alas, they have never been permitted to come into existence.
Interactive Map Showing Job Gains and Losses
October 22, 2009Carpe Diem has an excellent interactive map showing job gains/losses for the 20 largest Canadian and 100 largest U.S. metropolitan areas from July 2002 through July 2008. Some details on the statistics:
1. You can see that the jobless recovery in the U.S. following the 2001 recession lasted well into 2003, with the jobless rate peaking in June 2003, and widespread, solid job gains not returning until 2004.
2. You can see the spike in job losses in the Louisiana area following the twin hurricanes of Katrina (August 2005) and Rita (September 2005).
3. During the years 2004, 2005 and 2006, there were consistent job gains around the country, until some job losses start showing up in Michigan in the fall of 2006, and those job losses in Michigan continued into 2007, and then really worsened in 2008 and 2009.
4. The next area of job losses leading into the recession was in Florida, starting in mid-2007, followed by job losses starting in California by the end of 2007.
5. By the middle of 2008 job losses were mounting, but were most heavily concentrated in California, Florida and Michigan. There were still employment increased in the central part of the U.S., especially in Texas and Oklahoma, and also job growth in the NYC-DC-Boston-Philadelphia area. Almost all areas of Canada were still experiencing job growth in June 2008.
6. By the fall of 2008, jobs losses were widespread across the U.S., except for Texas and Oklahoma; and by the spring of 2009 almost the entire country was experiencing job losses. Even into the summer of 2009, some parts of Canada were still seeing job gains, and it seems obvious that the Canadian economy survived the recession better than the U.S., at least in terms of jobs losses.
Record Drop in Education Jobs
October 4, 2009The employment report released earlier this week shows that the recession has hit education. According to the data, September education employment fell by 0.9%, or 121,000 jobs, since September 2008. This is the largest drop since data began being collected in the 1950s:
The Chicago Jobs Map
August 6, 2009From the Chicago Tribune staff editorial:
Members of the Chicago City Council, take a look at the map above. What do you see? You see 44 dots. Every dot is a Wal-Mart in the Chicago area. Every dot is a place where people go to work and draw a paycheck. Every dot produces sales tax revenue. Every dot caters to people who want to buy shoes and socks and TVs and tires and whatever else draws them to Wal-Mart. If we widened this map to take in all of Illinois, there would be 148 dots. If we widened it again to take in all of the U.S., there would be 3,514 dots.
So, aldermen. How's that campaign going to protect Chicagoans from the scourge of working for Wal-Mart?
Construction of the store would create 200 jobs. The store, once it was running, would provide nearly 500 jobs. But the City Council wants none of that, so all the Chicagoans who like to shop at Wal-Mart and all the Chicagoans who would like to work at Wal-Mart have to go to one of those dots on the map. They're all in the suburbs, save the one Wal-Mart that has been allowed to open in Chicago.
Organized labor doesn't like Wal-Mart because Wal-Mart doesn't have union jobs. It just has jobs (with an average hourly wage of $12.05 in Chicago). The aldermen, of course, already have jobs. They get paid $110,556 a year and they figure that as long as they keep the labor unions off their backs, they'll keep making $110,556 a year.
Who says the City Council doesn't generate jobs? If you're one of the 50 aldermen, your unemployment rate is 0 percent. But the unemployment rate for the rest of Chicago is above 10 percent. One in 10 Chicagoans is out of work. Many of the aldermen think that if you're a constituent and you're unemployed you can just go look somewhere else. You want to get a paycheck from Wal-Mart? Go take a hike to one of those dots on the map. Go take a hike to those clueless suburbs.

Katy Perry and Russell Brand have called it quits (and we have to admit, we hoped the rumors weren't true).
Following months of troubled-marriage rumors, the kooky couple, who began their romance on a chance meeting at a music awards show, is no more.

Katy and Russell began dating shortly after the music awards show.

And then Brand chimes in, tweeting, "You tell em Mrs Brand! In Britain we're currently dismantling the scum media so I'm not tuned in to their brain-farting."
Nov. 22, 2011: More rumors surface, this time saying Perry is pregnant. She quickly slams the baby bump stories, saying, "I just have a fat upper-p—y area." "Sorry. I like In-N-Out Burger and Taco Bell, and if you want to make that pregnant, then that's your problem."

It all began at the Pig Stand in Beaumont in 1941 when manager Royce Hailey ordered several loaves of thick-sliced bread from the Rainbo Bakery — and discovered too late that it wouldn't fit in the toaster.
So they slathered the slices in butter and slapped them on the grill and — tada! — Texas Toast was born in Beaumont, Texas. The hungry citizens of Beaumont had the good sense to love it and the idea spread quickly.
Of course, the Pig Stand is history now, but Texas Toast survives. And like so many great discoveries that have benefited mankind, it resulted from a miscalculation.
Hey, I think we have another possible marketing slogan for Beaumont: "Home of Texas Toast … the best thing since thinner sliced bread."

Dr. Dregs has been uncharacteristically insistent of late that we stop acquiring more junk. Normally, I'm in agreement with that plan, but clearly I must have one of these. Just in case anyone out there is suddenly seized by the urge to buy me a present, now you know what to get. Hey, it's a little pricey, maybe, but aren't I worth it?
Of course, the Sunnydale High Library could never be complete without a Rupert Giles action figure, so I'd need one of those, too. This is obviously a dangerous path to travel ... maybe Doc Dregs is right.
The whole story was posted by my loving spouse over at Bitter Dregs, so I wasn't going to say anything here about my little Monday night incident on Minnehaha Parkway, but I find that I just have to say something. So, to the guy who decided it was worth his while to harrass me as I biked home from Lake Harriet, a few points:
Most drivers don't treat cyclists like this guy did. When I drive, I certainly don't act like this guy. Most of my fellow human beings are decent people who, no matter how annoyed they may be with having to pass bicyclists while driving, just do it and go on with their lives. I'm just sorry I had to encounter such an unfortunate example of the species on what was otherwise a very pleasant evening ride.

Dan Aykroyd likes the look of Ghostbusters on Wii
Dan Aykroyd has told Newsweek that he prefers how the characters look in the Wii version of Ghostbusters as the style resembles The Incredibles.
"Honestly, I love the way we look in the Wii platform, because it resembles the animation that was done in The Incredibles," he said.
"Anybody who looks like an Incredible is automatically a superhero. And I was so pleased that they shaved off at least 60 pounds from my current bulk. The boys look good. We resemble the actors who were in the first movie. You wouldn't want us out there looking as we do today."
Aykroyd went on to discuss the differences between doing voiceovers for a movie and a videogame, as well as talking about the motion capture process.
It really is a good read, so hit the link for more.

Ghostbusters script is 480 pages long, says actual Ghostbuster
Speaking to videogaming247, Ernie Hudson – the actor who played Winston Zeddmore in the Ghostbusters movie – has revealed the length of the upcoming game's script. Basically, it's a half a Haze.
"You know, I read the script, and it's a really good script," he said. "It's huge. It covers every possibility. A regular film script is 120 pages, this thing's 480 pages, or something."
Dan Akroyd and Harold Ramis, the talent behind the original film script, wrote the new, original content for the game.
Hudson was at the MCM Expo in London promoting the game, to which he's added a VO.
"All the characters are back, including Bill Murray, which I was surprised at, because Bill tends to not do these things," he said. "If you look at his movies, I think the only time he ever did a sequel was with Ghostbusters. And it took five years to get him to do that."
We'll post the full interview with Ernie later this week.

New Ghostbousters details slime Web
Destruction has summarised Game Informer's preview of the upcoming Ghostbusters games from Vivendi (Activision Blizzard, whatever), including this:
- There are two, semi-separate ghostbusting projects at this time, one for a Wii/PS2 release, the other, grander effort being saved for the 360, PS3 and PC.
- The big project is being developed by Terminal Reality, and has realistic graphics running on a proprietary engine. The focus is on the single-player campaign mode, and details about the multiplayer are still TBA. It doesn't look good for we co-op PS360 enthusiasts, though.
- The secondary release on Wii and PS2, developed by Red Fly, is a slightly dumbed-down version that will focus on multiplayer, and has cartoony graphics instead of the main project's realism.
There's also news of a gun that fires double-ended "snot" laces for sticking across passageways and the like. The mind boggles. No release date on any of this yet, aside from "autumn 2008″.
