Hagerstown's Fire Sparks New Interest
In Town's Heritage, July 17 Flying Circus
Some of the nation's most skillful pilots will showcase their flying abilities and rare vintage aircraft at the Hagerstown AirportTuesday, July 17 at the 5th Annual Hagerstown Flying Circus. Gates to the airport will open at 2 p.m. for the free event and the main event will lift off at 6 p.m.
Especially Poignant This Year
"This year's Flying Circus will be especially poignant because in addition to being entertained by the brave pilots who always amaze us with their skills, we will be honoring our own incredibly brave firefighters and emergency responders who saved Hagerstown last Saturday," announced Denny Burns, chairman of the event.
"Hagerstown's emergency responders and those from 10 neighboring towns who saved two major landmarks and our rich automotive history will be honored at6 p.m," announced Denny Burns, chairman of the event. "Please join us at the airport to show your support and have a great time.
What Can I Do To Help?
"Whenever a major fire occurs in century-old buildings on a town'sMain Street, that community's heritage is placed in jeopardy. But, this particular fire threatened our town's signature restaurant and our museum and art center," Burns explained, adding, "There has been an out-pouring of love forHagerstownsince the fire and everyone asks: 'What can I do to help?'"
My response is, "Please come to the Hagerstown AirportTuesday, July 17. Come enjoy the Flying Circus, help honor our heroes and celebrate our town's role in creative culinary, automotive and aviation history."
The Hagerstown Flying Circus
was launched in 2008 as part of the Ford Model-T Centennial Celebration, when hundreds of Model Ts joined dozens of vintage aircraft at theHagerstownAirport, the longest grass airport in the country. The smooth, soft-landing airport is a favorite among vintage pilots who have returned every year to perform exhibitions while enjoying the airport's welcoming community and personal conversations with their fans every year.
A Special Fly-Over Of Eastern Indiana
Before the main event, at approximately Noon Tuesday, July 17, a special fly-over of Eastern Indiana will occur as the Wright Model B "Brown Bird" will fly from its base in Miamisburg,Ohio en route to Hagerstown. With ground speeds of 45 to 60 miles per hour, the distinctive aircraft can be followed by the naked eye for long periods of time.
The Wright B Flyer, a replica of the Wright Brothers century-old plane, again will be featured as a major flying exhibition event at6 p.m. And, two of the pilots who were tragically killed in another Wright replica plane just 10 days after last year's Hagerstown appearance, will be honored in a memorial service during the opening ceremony.
A memorial tribute will be paid to Mitch Cary and Don Gum, pilots who had flown in prior Hagerstown Flying Circuses. Mitch Cary flew the Brown Bird toHagerstowneach of the event's four years and became well acquainted with the people ofHagerstown.
"Mitch Cary was the reason kids brought their parents back to Hagerstown's Flying Circus year after year," said Mary Anne Butters, a volunteer with the event.
"I'll always remember watching Mitch patiently answer every clumsy question from a 7-year-old boy about the magic of flight. "Using intricate hand maneuvers, Mitch explained lift, speed and flight control, then he hoisted the boy into the seat just like the one where Wilbur sat. Mitch Cary inspired an interest in science for countless children, "she said.
An engraved stone memorial will be dedicated to Mr. Cary and Mr. Gum at the entrance to the Hagerstown Airport during the ceremony.
Free children's art and competitive games will be provided by the sponsoring Hagerstown Optimist Club throughout the afternoon. Prizes are sponsored by Hagerstown Arts Place, through a grant from Wayne County Foundation.
The Optimists will serve hamburgers, hot dogs and other popular fare, while other vendors will provide tenderloins, homemade ice cream and other favorites.
Additional vendors are welcomed, and will be asked to donate 10 percent of proceeds to the Optimist Youth Programs. Vendors may call (765) 886-5098 for registration.
Vintage cars, including Ford Model Ts that inspired the first Flying Circus in 2008, will be showcased at the Auto Cruise-In on the airport grounds
A free shuttle bus will carry visitors to both sides of the airport, sponsored by Centerstone. Amish visitors are welcomed and will be provided free water for their horses.
The family-friendly event is overdue for ideal weather conditions, but if it is rained out, the rain date is July 18. All who attend are asked to bring their own chairs or blankets as no seating is provided at the airport. Information submitted by Mary Ann Butters

A Cigar Smoker Invades Rick's Cabaret ... and Brings Davidoff Surprise
Filed under: Cigars
The event, organized by Barry Stein the man behind the cigar blog "A Cigar Smoker," attracted a large and varied group of cigar smokers, making the Rick's roof feel like your local cigar shop (though with the obvious differences). As hors d'oeuvres were passed and drinks sipped, on-the-spot back rubs were delivered expertly by roving masseuses, and cigars were abundant. Conversation flowed freely and easily, especially with my new blogging buddy the Social Vixen.

Jay Siegel
Molecular Design, Synthesis and Dynamic Stereochemistry
Jay S. Siegel (b. 1959) earned a BSc in Chemistry from California State University - Northridge (1980), followed by an MA (1982) and PhD (1986) from Princeton working with Professor Kurt Mislow in the area of Structural Chemistry and Stereochemistry. During his studies at Princeton (1983), he received a Swiss Universities Grant (cf. Fulbright Grants) to study crystallography at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, with Professor Jack. D. Dunitz. After earning his Ph. D., he was awarded a NSF-CNRS postdoctoral fellowship (1985) to study supramolecular chemistry at the University of Louis Pasteur in Strasbourg with Jean-Marie Lehn. He began his independent career as Assistant Professor of Chemistry at UCSD (1986), was promoted to Associate Professor (1992) and Full Professor (1996). He was a US-NSF Presidential Young Investigator (1988), an American Cancer Society Jr. Fellow (1990), an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow (1992), and an Arthur C. Cope Scholar by the ACS (1998). He was elected fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (1998) and the Royal Society of Chemistry (2007). He has been visiting professor at Princeton, Caltech, University of Basel, the Weizmann Institute and Tokyo Institute of Technology. In 2003, he was appointed as Professor and co-director of the Organic Chemistry Institute of the University of Zurich and Director of its laboratory for process chemistry research (LPF). He is co-Editor in Chief of Topics in Stereochemistry and Chairs the editorial advisory board of Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry, as well as the EUCHEMS Organic Chemistry Division.
Research Overview
Molecular design, chemical synthesis, and structural analysis constitute the three principle components of modern stereochemistry. Robust transmission of structural and stereo-chemical information is fundamental to selective chemical processes like (bio)molecular recognition, enantioselective reactions, and the assembly of designed materials. Beyond symmetry and molecular bonding, stereochemical investigations draw upon concepts from many disciplines and implement techniques such as synthetic methodology, X-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and computational theory. As a result, research in this area combines synthetic and physical organic chemistry with an eye toward issues of material and life science.
The following specific topics are central to the current research:
♦ Non-planar aromatics, their metal complexes and physical properties
♦ Topological stereoisomers, dendrimers, and helicates
♦ Investigations into molecular recognition through polar interactions
♦ Influence of steric enshrouding on (reactive) species - e.g. silyl cations
♦ Heterocycles isosteric to ACGT(U) toward the molecular evolution of DNA/RNA
♦ Stereochemical Principles of Molecular gears and rotors

I guess what you're saying is a special case of a broadcast oriented MAP then local refinement followed by REDUCE. Can't think of anything much in that problem space else myself. Thought maybe a distributed shared memory (DSM) might make sense but I'm not clever enough to know about that. As opposed to SIMD and MIMD, not sure MISD (==broadcast?) is really a valid thing which low latency broadcast could help with. Is MISD a useful thing in the 21st century? Not sure it is and shaving such small amounts of nanos at extra cost doesn't quite seem to fit a beowult style budget anyhow. Just for HFTs and financial exchanges I guess...

In each issue of the magazine we highlight a different space available for meetings and events. In the Spaces section of our fall issue we featured the Minnesota Marine Art Museum in Winona. If you have a favorite space that you think we should highlight in the magazine or here on the blog, let us know in the comments below.
Located on the picturesque banks of the Mississippi River, the museum features four major art galleries and a garden that mimics the landscape of the upper Mississippi River Valley, providing year-round color with its 60,000 plantings of native shrubs, flowers, grasses and trees. Only 20 to 25 percent of the museums entire art collection is on display at any given time and new exhibits are installed about every month and a half, making it a great place to bring meetings time after time.
The museum offers a variety of spaces that can accommodate as many as 100 attendees. The multipurpose room can seat 50 at tables or 60 with lecture style seating. This space allows your event to be closed off from the rest of the museum, but attendees the opportunity to explore the galleries and garden during free time. The atrium, available to rent after gallery hours, seats 70 at tables or as many as 100 in lecture style seating.
Space rental includes access to the galleries, audiovisual equipment and use of the museums banquet tables and chairs. Preferred caterer Signatures serves up local ingredients, offers full bar services and provides room setup and clean up.

- Helped our "problem child's" stomach issues Review by D.D.Sisk Tennessee
Value Quality Price Our Saint Bernard had diarrhea or very soft stool for nearly a year before we figured out that it was her food. We have always fed high quality food so I didn't put it together...felt bad about that :( And on top of that she is a dog who "eats to live" not "lives to eat" so she doesn't eat if she doesn't like it or it gives her problems. At 3 1/2 years old she's weighing in at 105-110 with a very tall slender build so we HAD to find something that she will eat on a consistent basis to be able to keep her weight at a healthy level. Our vet suggested trying P*rina EN & when we did...wah-la! But I wanted a high quality food so I went on a hunt & eventually found Earthborn Grain Free (without any of the ingredients that can cause cancer & other issues I might add) & she loves it & no more stool problems. In my hunt I figured out it is potatoes that bothers her...just wanted to put that in there in case any other pet owners have this problem. It was a long & kinda stressful journey with trying several...4-5 I think....kinds of food before finding this one...ahhhh relief! & then I searched for the cheapest place to buy it.... Doggiefood.com has been consistently the cheapest place with their discounts & FREE s&h. They have always gotten my order to me fast & right....I cannot say that about others I've ordered from. So I give Earthborn & Doggiefood,com a 5 star rating. Many, many thanks to Earthborn for making a high quality food!!! And Thank you Doggiefood.com for carrying our food & being so good to us!!!

I wonder if President Obama will again break a campaign promise by signing this legislation. It was his mantra in the campaign and after he was elected that he would veto any tax bill that didn't raise taxes on those making $200K/$250K. Well, this bill doesn't' do that - it raises taxes on those making $400K/$450K, almost double the amount he promised the 47% to get re-elected.
It's called a compromise.

Glass and pottery afficionados will find this wonderful boutique a must.
Glass and pottery afficionados will find this wonderful boutique a must.
Nawate-dori is a popular place for a stroll, a few blocks from the castle. Vendors of this riverside walk sell antiques, souvenirs and delicious taiyaki (filled waffle in the shape of a carp) of varying flavours. Look for the big frog statue, by the bridge.
Adjacent to the better known Japan Ukiyo-e Museum, amid fields and rice paddies, beneath the gaze of the Alps stand these five examples of striking late Edo- and early Showa-era architecture for you to explore.
This charming former merchant district by the Metoba-gawa (river), with its namako-kabe kura (lattice walled storehouses) and Edo-period streetscapes, makes for a wonderful stroll. Many buildings have been preserved and transformed into cafes, galleries and craft shops specialising in wood, glass, fabric, ceramics and antiques.
The festival at Fukashi-jinja on 23 and 24 July features elaborately decorated yatai .
This sleek museum has a good collection of Japanese artists, many of whom hail from Matsumoto or depict scenes of the surrounding countryside. Highlights include the striking avant-garde works of Kusama Yayoi (look for the 'Infinity Mirrored Room').
This festival(aka Shintōsai) occurs around the beginning of October, featuring fireworks and large dolls.
This stunning alpine plateau (2000m) boasts over 200 varieties of flora which come alive in the Summer. It's a great daytrip from Matsumoto (612m), reached via an ooh-and-ahh drive on twisty mountain roads called Azalea Line and Venus Line (open late April to early November).
Around the start of October, Asama Onsen celebrates the spectacular and slightly manic fire festival, wherein groups of men, women and children, shouting 'wa-sshoi!', like a mantra, parade burning bales of hay through narrow streets to an enormous bonfire at Misha- jinja (shrine).
On the fourth Saturday in September, much merriment is to be had at the festival held in honour of dōsojin (roadside guardians) at Utsukushi-ga-hara Onsen.
About a dozen classical music concerts in memory of revered Japanese conductor and music educator Saitō Hideo (1902–72) held from mid-August to mid-September. Ozawa Seiji, conductor emeritus of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, is festival director.
This atmospheric festival during August features nō performances by torchlight, outdoors on a stage in the park below the castle.
You can't beat the views from this swanky top-floor bar at the Buena Vista Hotel. It's also a French restaurant, if you fancy it, but it's possible to come here just to imbibe.
Northeast of downtown, Utsukushi-ga-hara Onsen (not to be confused with Utsukushi-ga-hara-kōgen) is the prettier of these spa villages, with a quaint main street and views across the valley. Asama Onsen's history is said to date back to the 10th century and includes writers and poets, though it looks quite generic now.
The Goodwill Guide Group gives free one-hour tours of Matsumoto-Jō Castle by advance notice.
The Castle Festival, from mid-October to 3 November, is a cultural jamboree that includes costume parades, puppet displays and flower shows.
Among dozens of baths and inns at Asama Onsen, Hot Plaza Asama has numerous indoor and outdoor baths in a traditional building. Rental towels are available (¥200). Buses from Matsumoto Station take about 20 minutes.
Matsumoto's biggest event takes place on the first Saturday in August, when over 25,000 people of all ages perform the 'bonbon' dance through the streets, well into the hot summer's night. Be prepared to be drawn into the action.
Three days after the cherry-blossoms are declared in full bloom (early April), the castle and its sakura trees are illuminated spectacularly, and entry to the inner compound is free.

Although the connections may not be obvious, a career in the military and a career in tax preparation are more similar than most people realize. One testament to this is Ronald Lafond, an experienced veteran. Ronald spent 23 years in the Air Force and turned to tax preparation to find a way to continue to build his leadership skills while also getting to know people in his community.Born and raised in Massachusetts, Ronald has been married for 40 years, has two children and two grandchildren. His military experience dates back to 1964, where he served for 23 years and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel in 1987, serving stints in Vietnam and time working at the Pentagon. During these years, he flew combat missions.Ronald describes his time in the Air Force as "adventurous." It's that sense of adventure that drew him to tax preparation. After his time in the Air Force, Ronald's urge to tackle new things led him to tax preparation. Helping others understand the tax code let him flex his military skills, where complicated issues and problem-solving were his specialties (and his passion).The Air Force had taught him to be a self-starter, so he acted on his passion and experiences and began filing taxes for his wife's apparel store. He was drawn to this in part by the unique complexities of the tax code, but also by his personal experiences with taxes. Six years later, he took the leap and completed a tax preparation course through Jackson Hewitt's Tax School. Soon after, he landed a job at a Jackson Hewitt tax store in Wilmington, N.C. where he's been ever since.Today, Ronald's favorite part of tax preparation is the personal satisfaction he gets from helping his clients. Specifically, he highlights helping the current and veteran members of the military with their taxes. As a veteran, he understands the unique circumstances many of the military are in. He finds it easy to help them understand the tax implications of their military status and service and enjoys being able to identify solutions for their tax problems today and in the future. Ronald also says he keeps coming back each year because his job at Jackson Hewitt helps him build relationships with people in his area.This opportunity for Ronald isn't about the money. It's been about finding creative ways to channel his highly-developed skillset and energy after his time of service.Veterans and members of the military represent a highly skilled group of workers for employers today, and Jackson Hewitt is committed to helping veterans find the right path for their post-military careers.Interested in becoming a tax preparer with Jackson Hewitt like Ron?

Agreed. The airplane (while in the air) does not know if you are turning up wind, down wind, or cross wind.
My wife and I departed Marysville KS with winds 30G50 right down the runway. Other than allowing for the gusts on take off with an extra 10 knots, the plane behaved normally as we turned cross wind and down wind and at pattern altitude the wind was a LOT more than 30G50 as we had over a 100 knot tail wind at 1500 feet.

Lets see... Coming up to the FAF very close to the GS intercept when the tower comes back with the updated clearance which I am obliged to copy. Would texting be any more distracting in *ANY* phase of flight? I don't really think so. Welll... if I tried texting *while* trying to copy that updated clearance then I'd have to say yes, but other than that, it doesn't even come close and I wouldn't even answer the phone (which is supposed to be off) during an approach.
Having said that, I have had all functions on my phone disabled (at the phone company) except voice. I do not want to be looking at weather on a tiny screen, or trying to copy text off a small screen. So what if they give me a smart phone for free with a contract? Those are not things I want so I have a nice phone that only works as a phone.
I still spend a good 8 hours a day on computers, either fixing, building, programming, or surfing although about half of that is spent on e-mail. Give me a cell phone with a 25" diagonal wide screen and I might consider texting or using it for other than voice. <:-))

How is agoraphobia treated?
Comment on this
Read 2 Comments
There are a variety of treatments available for agoraphobia, including specific kinds of psychotherapy as well as several effective medications. A specific form of psychotherapy that focuses on decreasing negative, anxiety-provoking, or other self-defeating thoughts and behaviors (called cognitive behavioral therapy) has been found to be highly effective in treating agoraphobia. In fact, when agoraphobia occurs along with panic disorder, cognitive behavioral therapy, with or without treatment with medications, is considered to be the most effective way to both relieve symptoms and prevent their return. In fact, sometimes patients respond equally as well when treated with group cognitive behavioral therapy or a brief course of cognitive behavioral therapy as they do when treated with traditional cognitive therapy. Psychotherapy for agoraphobia has even been found to be effective for many people when they receive it over the Internet, which is optimistic news for people who live in areas that are hundreds of miles from the nearest mental-health professional. Another form of therapy that has been found effective in managing agoraphobia includes self-exposure. In that intervention, the person either imagines or puts him or herself into situations that cause increasing levels of agoraphobic anxiety, using relaxation techniques in each situation in order to master their anxiety. As people gain access to the Internet, there is increasing evidence that exposure therapy can also be done effectively through that medium. Regarding medical therapy, agoraphobia is usually treated in connection with panic disorder. Commonly, members of the serotonin selective reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and the minor tranquilizer (benzodiazepine) groups of medications are used in treatment. Examples of SSRI medications include sertraline (Zoloft), paroxetine (Paxil), and fluoxetine (Prozac). The possible side effects of SSRI medications can vary greatly from person to person and depend on which medication is being used. Common side effects of this group of medications include dry mouth, sexual dysfunction, nausea, tremors, trouble sleeping, blurred vision, constipation or soft stools, and dizziness. In very rare cases, some people have been thought to become acutely more anxious or depressed once on the medication, even trying to or completing suicide or homicide. Children and teens are thought to be particularly vulnerable to this rare possibility. Phobias are also sometimes treated using beta-blocker medications, which block the effects of adrenaline on the body. An example of a beta-blocker medication is propranolol. Panic disorder and phobias are less commonly treated with drugs in a medication class known as benzodiazepines. This class of medications causes relaxation but is used much less often these days to treat anxiety due to the possibility of addiction, increasing need for higher doses, and overdose. The risk of overdose is especially heightened if taken when alcohol is also being consumed. Examples of medications from that group include diazepam (Valium), alprazolam (Xanax), lorazepam (Ativan), and clonazepam (Klonopin). As anything that is ingested carries the risk of possible side effects, it is important to work closely with your doctor to decide whether medication is appropriate, and if so, which medication would be best for you. Further, the treating doctor will likely closely monitor for the possibility of side effects that can vary from the minor to the severe and in rare cases may even be life-threatening.

If you don't think it's rather ridiculous for a laser to suddenly stop at 270 meters, well your suspension of disbelief is stronger than mine...
Don't lasers also have a focusing lens? Would that not imply an optimal focused range for maximum damage output such that their would be a damage drop off if striking targets too close as well too far?

January 6, 2011 DRC 2010 © Stella Evangelidou /MSF South Kivu, DRC/New York, January 6, 2011—The international medical humanitarian organization, Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) has provided specialized care to 33 women raped on New Year's Day in Fizi, South Kivu, in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. The women were raped on the night of January 1 in Fizi town and surroundings in a coordinated attack. MSF medical teams treated 14 women at the hospital in Fizi on January 3, and 19 women the next day. In addition, two severely wounded people were transferred to Baraka Hospital, one with serious head injuries after being beaten with a rock, the other with gunshot wounds in the chest. "Women had been restrained with ropes or beaten unconscious with the butt of a gun before being attacked, some in front of their children," said Annemarie Loof, MSF head of mission in South Kivu. "Up to four armed men were involved at a time and homes and shops were looted." MSF provides specialized medical care to women and girls who have been raped, including post-exposure prophylaxis, treatment that protects women from contracting the HIV virus and other sexually transmitted infections. Many women are afraid to seek treatment because of fear of being stigmatized by their families or further harassed by armed groups. "MSF is extremely concerned about the current situation in and around Fizi," Loof said. "People are fleeing the area fearing further violent attacks."
In 2009 alone, MSF provided medical and psychosocial care for 5,600 rape victims in North and South Kivu. |

Public health advocates have long touted the female condom as a way for women to protect themselves against HIV, especially if their partner didn't want to use a male prophylactic. But while the female condom has been distributed around the world over the last 16 years, it may make a bigger splash if it's cheaper.
The polyurethane sheath, originally approved in 1993, costs anywhere from $2.80 to $4 a piece – a steep price for women in developing countries to whom the condom was marketed (never mind those in the U.S., who could pick up several of the male version for not much more than that — or for free), Reuters reports. That may change, now that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a next-gen female condom made of synthetic nitrile (a form of rubber) that costs less money for its manufacturer, the Chicago-based Female Health Company, to make. The cost of the new female condom, FC2, could fall to around 60 cents per device for health groups and government agencies that want to buy them, according to the newswire. Male condoms typically cost around 50 cents each.
"Having a less expensive Female Condom increases the probability of women who need it having access to it," Mary Ann Leeper, the company's senior strategic adviser, told Reuters after the FDA approved the FC2 on Wednesday.
The female condom is about 6.5 inches (17 centimeters) long, and basically works like a male condom, covering the cervix and opening with a ring that protects the outside of the vagina.
The United Nations has distributed the original female condom in 142 countries, Reuters notes. But some women have complained that it's ugly and squeaks; even the product information recommends trying it three times before deciding whether to stick with it as a regular form of contraception. And while advocates have touted it as female-controlled form of sexually transmitted disease (STD) prevention, a man still has to be on board, as the female condom's outer ring is visible.
It could be a year or more before the new female condom is available at U.S. retailers, and its price hasn't been set, Reuters notes.
Men and women, of course, still gripe about using protection, as we note in this look at the history of the male condom. That's one reason scientists are trying to develop an effective microbicide – a kind of spermicide that women could apply before sex that would prevent them from catching HIV and other STDs. Then again, as far as contraception (but not disease prevention) goes, there's always the vasectomy — an increasingly popular option for men in these tight economic times, Reuters reports.

Like many, I'm somewhat concerned about the fit and feel of this, but it is a very good step forward.
Having read the usage instructions, I'd say there is still a major problem. Many of the women this is meant to protect are victims of rape. This very noticeable device takes some of the control away from the man committing the rape and control is one of the primary drives of such attacks. As noted in the instructions, this device can be accidentally pushed aside, so an attacker can easily do so on purpose. While it is still a less than perfect solution, I think a product could be developed that is essentially 'crotchless panties' (sorry if that comes across as crude but I don't know a better term) that has a system for holding the outer ring of the FC2 in place. Yes, an attacker can remove this, but more trouble is, well, more trouble. And if enough passive trouble presents itself, ~some~ of the attacks can be mitigated. I hope.
I'm naturally supportive of any mechanism to limit disease and unwanted pregnancy, but it strikes me that all the selection pressure of such systems necessarily favor people whose minds go blank and the point of insertion.
There appear to be rather a lot of them already, and they breed rapidly.

How many banks does it take to float the Royal Mail? Government hires four – including Barclays and Goldman – and opponents claim their bill will tot up to £30m
Campaigners against the Royal Mail privatisation claim the four top City banks signed up to help handle it stand to make £30million from the deal.
UBS, Goldman Sachs, Barclays and Bank of America Merrill Lynch have been appointed by the Government to prepare for the controversial £2.5billion sale.
Billy Hayes, general secretary of the Communication Workers Union, which has warned that postal services will be hit by privatisation, said: 'The Government is wasting significant sums of taxpayers' money on a deeply unpopular and unnecessary privatisation agenda.
'Throwing public money at banks to flog a national asset is poor use of public funds. This Government has got it wrong on privatising Royal Mail.'
Mario Dunn, of campaign group Save Our Royal Mail, said: 'We learn today that banks are set to make up to £30million when the Government sell off Royal Mail.
'Once again consumers will lose out when prices rise and deliveries are reduced, but banks make millions.
'The public strongly oppose selling off this cherished British institution and it adds insult to injury that the likes of Goldman Sachs are set to make a huge profit from the sale."
Companies getting ready to float usually hire a large number of banks to handle the deal – insurer Direct Line had a syndicate of 12 which shared an estimated £20million of fees last year, while giant commodities trader Glencore had 23 banks which together were paid an estimated £116million in 2011.
Business Minister Michael Fallon said no final decision had been made on the structure of the sale of Royal Mail, adding that all options remained open.
He said: 'Preparations for the sale of shares in Royal Mail continue to build momentum and these appointments represent another important step towards a sale of shares this financial year.
'While all options for the form of sale remain open, it is important that we are in a position to move ahead swiftly with our chosen route once we take the final decision.
'Given the lead time and preparatory work involved in readying an IPO [initial public offering], the appointed banking syndicate will work to make sure we are ready to proceed when the time comes and will be able to deliver strong, high-quality investor demand to ensure a successful IPO for the taxpayer and for Royal Mail.'
The appointment of banks to junior syndicate positions for an IPO will be announced in the coming months.

Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
So are -- back record a new report by legendary banking analyst -- -- -- -- fourteen years are going to be great for some of the biggest banks bottom lines.
So why many other analysts painting such a different picture for the banking sector.
And the banks of the fifteen year that's my question.
We -- joined by the man himself Dick bove a banking analyst extraordinaire with rap pretty capital markets -- great to have you back on the show.
Thanks for coming on Jerusalem.
Let us you know explains copper -- hedge with fourteen years.
Well if you take a look back capacity for our -- in banking history the average up cycle for banks is fifteen years.
-- had a real long one from 1959 and that one -- 126 years.
And you had another long one in nineteen 89.
Which lasted for seventeen years.
And we're now four years into this up one because you know the industry's earnings turned -- very strongly in 2000.
And so my my guess is that you know you looking at the same type of -- cycle that you sought as they say and in the prior cycles.
That this a lot of good things happening and in 2012.
If my estimates are right bank -- banking industry should at 22% increase in earnings and -- the industry may have earned.
A 145 billion dollars which would have been.
The second highest ever and in the fourth quarter of 2012.
-- looking at something on the order of you know 39 billion dollars and earnings which was in fact the highest ever.
-- -- -- we this eat even when you look at just didn't just to -- a little bit even when you look at what happened at JPMorgan they've still managed to post record earnings when they had.
You know what a lot of people -- was a disaster with a Atlantic whale incident they're right back.
I'm fixing things that you say in the report is that we need to start looking at banks and a different way look at them like companies like apple where -- -- -- their products and what the demand is like for them.
Why do you think that's the way to look at.
On the banks now.
What -- exactly right now there was basically when you look at accompany you to talk about apple and you didn't mention what they were doing in terms of selling iphones and ipads people would think you and that's right.
If you look at banks and you don't to think of what they're doing in terms of making mortgage loans and auto loans and loans too on consumer electronic products which is credit card loans.
If you know looking you what they're doing in lending money into the energy industry into the medical care sector into the -- the industrial sector.
You know you that -- getting what it is that they sell.
So number one and what what I expect to see in 2013.
And beyond.
Is increase in loans to all of those sectors and I agree with your prior guess who said that interest rates should go up.
Because if interest rates go up in the margins on these loans are going to be bigger so.
You -- think about it very simplistic previous selling more widgets in the doing it had a wider margin and therefore earnings are gonna go up to dividends are gonna be raised in.
You know in -- you gonna get a whole bunch of dividends being increased.
On these stocks -- you gonna get big stock buyback programs.
Being announced and and the other thing that we noted is that if these stocks sell it less than one and a half times book.
-- you buy them going back 22 years that's been the strategy that has always yielded significant increases -- -- carve out those point that you made because a lot of people said the resort banks are doing so well right now as because the Fed is so accommodating but you think even if interest rates go up eight despite awaited turnaround make money out that.
That -- basically banks have to make higher margins in periods when interest rates are rising right.
And if the Fed has not been accommodating to the banks in other words it's driven interest rates so low.
That it's really pressuring the bank's net interest margin.
In addition to which because interest rates are so low.
I'm gonna say -- rod senior citizens of their retirement funds because you know nineteen and a half percent of the income of the United States.
Prior to these interest rate cuts was in passive in yeah that's -- -- well.
No you're actually not -- we had guests of the beginning of the show making that exact point that this whole arrow with the Fed has been so bad for seniors and savers in people who are trying to retire.
I wanna mention a couple of analysts -- disagree with -- you didn't see your reaction to that.
That had a bank research over Evercore Partners in -- -- says.
That he thinks that we are set for pods in the bank stocks.
Jim Senegal bank of Banc analyst at Morningstar says as far as earnings go.
There are no real areas for huge improvements in the banking stocks what do you think about that.
Aren't they said it might well I think that will want them.
You know agreements you know the people have been arguing quite before -- is that banks couldn't do well right now the with Ukraine turn on.
If you will television station pick up an analyst's report talked to a portfolio manager who wouldn't tell you how terrible the situation was for banks.
They had to raise the capital they had to bring in more liquidity they had to do with price fixing they had a right 800 dollars with a bad loans.
They had increased regulations in yet despite all of these events.
You know they -- as in -- -- industry should.
Dick let's do you know England would you selling your fifteen and that's it get out cash out you think it's over.
-- yeah I think there's I know we didn't -- later is no -- -- You have this no waited to stuff financial collapses in fifteen years from now who britches will be another line I'm -- like under -- -- thanks for coming on.
Thank you.
-- so --

We hear a lot about using newsrooms to connect the community/make a difference and about how engagement should be an integral part of journalism… but often think of it on a really complicated, trickle-down level. Here's a concrete example of a journalist who made a simple request for a local viewer via social media, and brought the community together quickly to find a solution.
Alex Rozier, an anchor/reporter at KHQ, the NBC affiliate in Spokane, posted the following message on his Facebook page after receiving a message from a man in the community that could not afford a heavy winter coat in a hard-to-find size:
Soon after, one Facebook friend posted that they had the coat, but weren't sure how to get it to the man… another posted that they could drop it off at their office and they would get to him… and as the conversation progressed, people living in the area realized that this man's problem was perhaps one affecting a larger fraction of the area that they'd thought… it seems like it may even grow to something bigger. Whether it does or does not, it shows how one simple message from someone with a platform to post it can make a difference and connect people to solve a problem. Pretty cool.
You can view the whole thread here.
(I should mention that I do know Alex from the University of Missouri where we worked together at KOMU. He's a great person and a fantastic journalist.)

Though his ultimate end goal is unclear, he says that the end goal of the ´supposed´ shooting was political in nature.´As documents relating to the Sandy Hook shooting continue to be assessed and interpreted by independent researchers, there is a growing awareness that the media coverage of the massacre of 26 children and adults was intended primarily for public consumption to further larger political ends,´ he wrote.He argues that Senator Dianne Feinstein was already in the midst of trying to rework the assault weapons ban that she co-sponsored back in the 1990s, and that the shooting gave her leverage to move it through the legislative process quicker.He´s not the only person who thinks this way!

Caught wind of this several days ago in a most unlikely spot - a ´veterans´ website...Interesting read - particularly the part that notes apparently video shows LEO taking the Bushmaster out of the trunk of the car...after the fact.Doubt the shooting was a ´fabrication´ - but don´t doubt for a skinny second that politicians aren´t above ´altering facts´ if it suits their ends.And it´d still be interesting to know why the US government is stockpiling ammo not legal in international warfare use - in the billions of rounds...Guess they saw their own ´created shortage´ looming?

There are many inconsistencies to this story. Many people have an immediate distatsteful gut reaction to questioning what went down as reported in the media not seeming kosher. In this case, it is worth taking a second and third look at the variance of facts - and the pitiful performances of some of the key players - the coroner and Robby Parker . Did we also know anything about whether the school was scheduled for closure/demolition? Do we know what drugs were given to Adam Lanza?When psychotic persons go on a shooting rampage I am reminded of MKULTRA decades ago and the chemicals they developed for mind control.

#5: The long gun removed from the trunk of the car in the video clip I saw was not an AR15 weapon.It was probably the pump shotgun belonging to his mother but it ABSOLUTELY and POSITIVELY was not an AR15!Everything about the silhouette of the gun said Mossberg/Remington and not Bushmaster/Colt.The LEO appears to be holding it by the stock just behind the receiver, so that his index finger could hold the Bolt Release up, and then 'Pumping' it with his left hand to clear the chamber and magazine.You don't do that to an AR15/M16. You hold it upright by the Pistol Grip with your right hand and operate the Charging Handle with your left hand pulling it back past your right wrist.That doesn't say there was't an AR15 in that trunk; it just says that the video on YouTube that had thousands of hits was not that of an AR15 being remove from a trunk.Kafir Click Here if you Like this Comment
That ammo is likely for Obama´s Civil Defense Force--larger than the National Guard. That is what he told us he would have--and now has four more years to do it. It is strange since that is what we have the National Guard for and they are half of our military. Obama is taking lessons from Hitler and this "Civil Defense Force" will be his Storm Troopers.

What would you do Richard?? I think I would say stay here as I am caring for my daughter who is severely disabled (emotionally and mentally). I would love a break away but Heaven is just a little too far to go at the moment! Then...some people say you can catch glimpses of Heaven on Earth. I do believe that too. Great Question!
Hi Ann ... Oh,I would choose to go, but if I am honest I would have to say that's primarily because things haven't worked out well for me down here ... If, like most of you, I had many reasons to live out life, then I would of course go that way ... But, as of now,I would go even though it would scare me to leave here ...
Rich, your question made my mind "topsy turvy" I couldn't come to a decision. Perhaps I would rather say: "Thy will be done, Lord"
Oops, Felipa, didn't mean to send your mind spinning .. but, I suspect you can handle it - LOL!
.... to either go to heaven right at the moment ...or, to live out the rest of your life ... what would you choose? It seems that if heaven is our goal, what we're all working for, well then .... But would we give up our life immediately to get it? Hmmm ...
Of course, this is all hypothetical,of course!
This is a no brainer. Gone.
Hi Michelle!
I respectfully have to disagree. If God is aSKING ME TO CHOOSE BETWEEN Him AND THE WORLD...i THINK hE IS ASKING ME; "dO YOU LOVE THE WORLD AND IT'S ATTATCHMENTS MORE THAN ME?" oops sorry, about the caps! So I of course would say " My Lord and my God, I am ready when you want to take me. They Holy will be done". God bless you, Michelle!
Well said! Amen sistah!

Hi Mudsprings, I see you are very proud of your son - which you should be. Commanding any submarine is a big accomplishment and something to be very proud of. My submarine service was in the mid 1960's, served aboard two diesel electrics and 2 nuclear attack boats. My biggest adventure was aboard the USS Shark (SSN-591) in 1963 and 1964. I first served aboard the USS Balao (AGSS-285), I have to say, standing watch in the "shears" going around Cape Hatteras during a powerful storm was very interesting. Anyway, thanks for befriending me, and I hope all goes well for you and your family this Holiday Season. All the Best, Tony
My younger son was on three attack submarines. The Boise, Scranton and Chicago. His last one was the USS Louisiana SSBN 743 a Boomer which he commanded. He has been in the Submarine Corps since 1991 when he graduated from the Naval Academy. He now is stationed in Honolulu. Not on a submarine. He has a beautiful wife and is the father of my four grandchildren.
And the same to you!
Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy the day with all of the best.
I really like your avatar.
Congratulations for Winning The Rank in THE Top 5 Articles By Day on Thursday (11/14) . Thanks a million for your time & effort.
Hawaiianguy, - so did you feel the Navy was an indenture? I joined the Navy in 1963, served aboard 4 submarines, 2 conventional and nuclear powered. The main boat was the USS Shark, SSN-591 from 1963 into 1964 if my memory serves me right. I was an ET and worked in Operations. And your history is?
What boat, what division, and when? My saying way back when was, "The Navy. It's not just a job, it's an Indenture."
Today is our buddy "Alaydown's" birthday. Please post a birthday message on his whiteboard, where we are celebrating his BIG DAY... Thank you....
Thank you for the Buddy request, happy to be one. If you are like me - it was the greatest adventure of my life - nothing comes even close. My wife and I have been preparing for a trip to Great Falls, Mt, may be leaving today or tomorrow depending on the best weather window. We set up at the gun show on the fair grounds which starts Friday afternoon and ends Sunday afternoon. Lots of nice people, fun and we even make some money - can't beat that! You have a nice week end. Tony
