Do you folks know how to act these days?
I'm not entirely sure what to do now.
They win, a lot. There's no angst. Lots of people are happy.
It's a weird world, isn't it?
Anyway, sorry I'm late; one of my New Year's resolutions was to get more rest, waking up at 5 a.m. after a game is counter-productive to that goal. Not to worry, I'll blow that resolution out of the water inside of a couple of weeks but until then …
Curly Fields
Okay, so maybe Landry Fields won't turn into some ball handling wizard but he was able to exploit the Blazers a couple of times last night that showed what he was talking about the other day when he said one of the advantages he would have in a small lineup was to take his man off the dribble.
I think the first time was in the first half right in front of the Raptors bench when he easily beat Joel Freeland to the rim and the second time came against the same defender at the other end of the court against the same guy if my chicken scratch note-taking is to be believed.
Now, I don't for a second think Fields is destined to be a power forward the rest of his life -- neither does he or Dwane Casey-- but in short spurts in some matchups it works well.
And if he continues rebounding that well from that spot -- nine in Orlando, seven last night -- it's a bonus.
Imagine that, eight rebounds a night from a guy at the four!
An expensive career
Was standing in the back hallway of the locker room after the game catching up with some people while the colleagues scribbled and Dwane comes over to join the conversation.
One wag:
"Hey, coach. Quincy's going to be the first NBA rookie to tell the coach not to play him."
It's costing the kid a lot of money to learn what it takes to play in the NBA.
With the technical foul he picked up late last night, he's now got three for the year and at $2,000 a pop, that's starting to add up.
And if you want an odd stat, the rookie now has as many technicals as field goals in his career.
Reminds me of another Raptors rookie and weird numbers:
There was a time in his career that Alec Radojevic had more surgeries than made baskets.
More odd numbers
Yes, that was a very strange statistical game for the lads, wasn't it?
The two main point guards wind up with 23 assists, two turnovers and zero points in a combined 45 minutes, as odd a stat as I can remember.
But it speaks to what's really turned things around offensively for this group.
Sharing the ball does seem to work, the 34 assists they had as a team was a new season high, the previous was 33, set last Saturday in Orlando.
I don't know what's gotten into them – maybe it's as simple as everyone's just having fun playing – but it's something to see.
A wee bit more, as usual:
So I'm driving home – a bit of a white-knuckler with some snow falling – and Lynyrd Skynyrd's Free Bird comes on the radio.
Pretty sure we've had this discussion before but there might be some new Irregulars who haven't given it much thought and you know we're all about though-provoking here, aren't we?
So, you Of A Certain Vintage:
If you had your choice, how does the high school dance (do they still have high school dances?) end best. With Free Bird, Stairway To Heaven or …
I'm kind of partial to Color My World, actually.
Still lots of room for mail, folks.
You know the drill, would love to hear from you but I'll tell you right now, I've got more than my fill of Andrea Bargnani questions so we can let that subject go, right?
Oh yeah, one more from the stat pack last night, which was as odd a numerical game as I can recall:
Toronto won despite having three members of the starting lineup (Calderon, Pietrus and Gray) not score a single point.
According to the folks at the Elias Sports Bureau and passed on by the good people at Raptors media relations, that's only the second time that's happened since boxscores started differentiating the starters from the rest of the team way back in the 1970-71 season.
The other time was Dec. 12, 1994 when Phoenix did it.
Bored of numbers yet?
Boy, that's a tough pucks 10 hours, wasn't it?
No settlement (I believe we should all issue Disclaimer of Interests until they blow the season up or not) and then the teens get their heads handed to them by the dastardly Yankees in the semi (how'd Popeye's kid look?)
Thank goodness for some that the HOTH are rolling. Puts a little sunshine in everyone's life.
So it's about 8 a.m. here, I look out the front window to banks of snow about two feet high running up and down the driveway, there's a dusting of the white stuff on the cars and roads and the Super Dog walk was a tad chilly an hour or so ago.
(And she's not taking to this sleep in plan very well today, thanks for asking).
It's gloomy and it's winter and we need something to warm the cockles of our hearts, don't we?
Yeah, saw a note to that effect somewhere yesterday: TOD opens April 2 and that's less than three months.
That'll get you through some of this snow nonsense, won't it?

Authors » Ron Sims
Ron Sims
Ron Sims was born in Western Australia in 1947. As a young artist he joined the Australian Broadcasting Commission where he developed skills in sound-design and scripting for radio and television drama and, in 1976, pioneered stereo drama recording in Australia with a production of A Wizard of Earthsea. Always fascinated by the visual arts, Ron gained diplomas in the fine arts and theatre arts. He left the ABC in 1983 to establish a course in Sound Production at Perth Technical College and later at the WA Academy of Performing Arts. During these lecturing years Ron was awarded a Churchill Fellowship for his production of Son et Lumiere in Perth. In 1991 he produced Platform 9, Perth's first full-scale acoustic sculpture. His travels in Europe and Japan resulted in a collection of sound recordings which spearheaded his Radio Feature work following his return to ABC National Radio in 1995. Ron had twice been awarded a World Gold Medal at the International radio Festival in New York. He has received grants from Healthway and the Department for the Arts and, in 1997, was awarded a Post-Graduate Diploma in English (Film and Television) from Curtin University.

Will Sleeping on Your Side Reduce Snoring?
Snoring occurs when your throat muscles relax during sleep, your tongue falls backward toward your throat and the walls of your throat vibrate, leading to the familiar sounds of a snore. It's a common notion, then, that most people only snore when they sleep on their back, as this is what allows your tongue to collapse into the back of your throat and obstruct breathing.
In fact, sleeping on your back can lead to snoring in some people — the New York Times reported one study found that 54 percent of snorers were "positional snorers," which means they only snored while sleeping on their backs. So switching to your side while sleeping is a simple trick to try if snoring is interfering with your, or your partner's, sleep — but it likely won't work for everyone.
Causes of snoring:
- Aging, which leads to increased relaxation of the throat muscles
- Obesity (particular having a lot of fatty tissue around the neck)
- Anatomical abnormalities of the nose and throat (enlarged tonsils or adenoids, nasal polyps, or deviated nasal septum)
- Functional abnormalities (such as inflammation of the nose or throat due to allergies)
- Drinking alcohol before bed, as alcohol is a potent muscle relaxant, or taking muscle relaxants in the evening

I know he's been having a breakdown this afternoon but why the ban? He's just hurting like all of us.
Cheers mate. He was coming out with some bitter drivel today but is usually a good poster, glad its not a perma ban.
Don't know why but I thought he was. Anyway, read some of his comments in your 'football is cruel' thread and he did seem like was hurting and going over the top.
The only posts I saw from Solius were decent today. Why would you go around deleting posts anyway unless they were racist or discriminatory in some way?
I thought he was for ages in the newbies. If there was an award for "Person you thought was a mod but isn't", Solius would probably win it as there are a few who thought the same thing other than you and I. I blame his avatar.
Jesus Christ. Hectic answered right away, that he was banned for ridiculous posts and it's not permanent. Why do you have to push it?
Fuck off newbie. I ask because it doesn't fit with his other posts, and it doesn't make sense to delete opinions even if they are "ridiculous".
I know what this thread will become. It was always going to happen. We need to take our anger out somewhere Let it all out lads. Anything you say in this thread will not receive an infraction Hectic = Redbunny
Well I don't have time to make it clear. I've told you why he has been banned, you will have to just trust me on the validity of that decision. As it is you usually don't get this much in response anyway.
It's been asked and answered. We're not doing this again tonight. Go give the cat a few kicks if you're feeling narky.
Just because we lost the title and some of us are single, it doesn't mean we should take it out on our pets.
Ramshock seems to be afflicted with the same disease moses has: Have I told you I have a girlfriend? Well, I do you know. Not only that, I've had sex with her. That's her, as in a woman. A real woman. Whom I've had sex with. Have you ever had sex? I have. With a woman who's also my girlfriend.
If someone's opinions are overly inflammatory and/or are going to derail the thread then that's reason enough to delete them, for me. I've no idea if that's the case with Solius' posts though.

Public art project in Los Angeles continues with next cycle of buses and outdoor media
John Baldessari, Learn To Dream, Aprende A Soñar (Bus, billboard, and outdoor media for the LA Fund), 2012. © John Baldessari. Photo by Victor Treato.
Produced by
, the public art component of Arts Matter, kicked-off by Barbara Kruger in October, continues with the work of artist John Baldessari. Totaling 60 media assets, his project titled, Learn To Dream, Aprende A Soñar (For the LA Fund), will appear on buses, billboards, bus shelters, and other types of outdoor media throughout Los Angeles starting today, and running for four weeks.
Learn To Dream, Aprende A Soñar is the second flight of original works of art by world-renowned artists produced by ForYourArt for Arts Matter, a first of its kind, citywide public art exhibition and fundraising campaign to support arts and creativity in the nations second largest public school system.
Baldessaris bus artwork, with its yellow and black design, turns LA Metro buses into school buses, a reminder that every moment is an opportunity for learning and reflecting. Like the best teachers, Baldessaris work provokes contemplation about what is and is not working in education today and challenges us to plan for a better future. His bilingual text, rendered in the artists hand, inspires thinking and dialogue among and about Los Angeless diverse audiences.
The phase, Learn To Dream, Aprende A Soñar, is repeated on various sized billboards, bus shelters, and other outdoor media against a black chalkboard background. Recalling Baldessaris well-known work, I Will Not Make Any More Boring Art (1971), which came from an idea of atonement, Learn To Dream, Aprende A Soñar is a mantra for the 21st century. Like his buses, the billboards and outdoor media call upon the power of individual and collective dreaming.
Presented by the Los Angeles Fund for Public Education (LA Fund) and the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), Arts Matter addresses the importance of arts education in Los Angeles public schools, the creative capital of the world. Public art will be presented on a fleet of twelve city buses and 48 other outdoor media totaling $4 million in value with approximately 900 million "eyes on artwork" impressions over the course of a year.
Here in the worlds creative capital we need to ensure all of our students receive a comprehensive, integrated arts education, stated Megan Chernin, founding Chair and CEO of the Los Angeles Fund for Public Education. Los Angeles cannot take the creative economy for granted. Major LA employers like Mattel, a worldwide leader in hiring creative people, are joining this campaign because they understand the direct connection between arts integration in the classroom and a thriving creative workforce."
John Baldessari and Barbara Krugers projects reflect our intention of bringing art to the public with multiple access points for diverse audiences. As the buses move through the landscape of Los Angeles, we are reminded that societys values are communicated and learned via public space and shared movement, said ForYourArt founder Bettina Korek.
With English and Spanish combined in the artwork, the two languages intermingle on billboards and outdoor media, reflecting the reality of co-existence and the possibility of collaboration. Baldessaris buses also trigger reflection on issues of translation, community, and audience that are increasingly prevalent in the administration and presentation of art. The use of dual languages reflects the changing demographics of LAUSD, Los Angeles, the United States, and museum visitors alike.
Learn To Dream is a phrase that Baldessari has returned to throughout his career. He created a billboard in New Zealand for ARTSPACE, where Learn to Dream appeared among horizontal bands of yellow, black, cyan, and light blue, and he rendered the phrase in a typeface designed by New Zealand typographer Joseph Churchward. The phrase recently appeared on a screen-print, produced by Gemini G.E.L. and published by Brain Multiples, as well as on T-shirts for the Trespass Parade in downtown Los Angeles, produced by West of Rome Public Art.
John Baldessari was born in 1931 in National City, California. He received a BA and MA from San Diego State University and completed postgraduate work at both Otis Art Institute and Chouinard Art Institute.
For more than five decades, Baldessari has created thousands of works that demonstrateand, in many cases, combinethe narrative potential of images and the associative power of language within the boundaries of the work of art. He has continually explored these themes in painting, photography, film, video, site-specific installations, artists books, sculpture, drawings, prints, and multiples.
Since 1957, Baldessaris work has been featured in more than 950 solo and group exhibitions in the United States and Europe. He has been the subject of numerous retrospective exhibitions, including those organized by the New Museum, New York, in 1981; the Instituto Valenciano de Arte Moderno, Valencia, Spain, in 1989; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, in 1990; Cornerhouse, Manchester, UK, in 1995; the Museum Moderner Kunst Stiftung Ludwig, Vienna, and Kunsthaus Graz, in 2005; and Tate Modern, London, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, in 2009.
As a teacher from 1970 to 1988 at the California Institute of the Arts, and from 1996 to 2007 at the University of California, Los Angeles, Baldessari instructed and influenced generations of artists. He lives and works in Southern California.

Sven Nys - World Champion
For the second year running, the Colnago Prestige will carry the rainbow bands of World Champion, and who better to take the crown from outgoing champion Niels Albert, than the King himself, Sven Nys.
If there was anything lacking in the palmares of a man who has dominated cyclocross for well over a decade, it was that he had previously only won one World Championship title, and many people felt that at the age of 36 he was unlikely to capture another. However, like the true legend of cyclocross that he is, Sven Nys captured his second title on 2nd February this year, and with this, cements his place as the greatest cyclocross rider of all time.
Piloting his Colnago Prestiges - bikes that he himself helped to develop - around a very tricky course in Louisville in the US in epic conditions, Sven rode a masterful race. He never overplayed his hand, preferring to let others blaze a trail for the majority of the race. However, using his killer instinct on the final lap, he forged into the lead, forcing compatriot and rival Klas Vanthourenhout to make an error and giving himself the chance to savour the victory before the line.
An incredible ride by an incredible cyclist. Chapeau Sven Nys.

This year, the awards go to six workshops, five from Bavaria and one from Saxony, for instruments in the categories cello and Renaissance lute, 8-course, in G. The awards will be presented during the international Musikmesse at a ceremony in the 'Rotunde' of the 'Festhalle' on Friday, 23 March 2012.
The Frankfurt Music Prize was founded in 1980 and has been awarded annually by the Frankfurt Music Prize Foundation on the occasion of the international Musikmesse in Frankfurt since 1982.
British guitarist John McLaughlin is to receive the Frankfurt Music Prize for 2012. McLaughlin, who celebrated his 70th birthday this year, has been a dominant influence on the European and international music scene with his guitar playing for over 50 years.
According to the jury of the Frankfurt Music Prize, John McLaughlin is a musician whose work, "has always been characterised by respect and openness with regard to many other directions, forms of expression and cultures, and not by genre borders and dogmatism". For the jurors, John McLaughlin is a person who can be described as a world musician.

Passion for learning......
It's always good to pursue something that's beneficial to us but however, I felt that it should also come with passion too. Without interest and passion, whatever we set to work on will become a burden to us, instead of some journey to knowledge and wisdom. I used to be kinda ambitious, wanted to learn this and that but end up nowhere..LOL. Actually, what I am lacking is passion. I remember I was studying for an exam and finished the book half-way but I kinda procrastinate and after a while, stop there.
Of course, on the other hand, there are times that we sometimes 'force' to take up some courses and exams, like certification exams required by an organisation and etc. However, it's always good to instill passion into the project that we are committing ourselves onto and enjoy it. I'm sure regular bloggers here are passionate about blogging and end up learning lots of stuffs related to blogs, like self-hosting, earning wages from the blogs, attending events and so on.
I guess before we start on anything, let's make sure we have the interest and passion to keep it up! Have a good weekend!

Should I start playing Oblivion again? All tricked out with a mass of cool mods.. your thoughts people for and against letting myself be addicted to Oblivion again!
Lol... best game ever (next to half life 1) I don't see why not. Last time I made a Monk dude called Rasputin that was all unarmed and had a paralysis spell. So much fun punching ppl and watching them fall down. Damn... now I wanna play.
Yes. Start playing Oblivion again. Get addicted again. It's a great game. Plus we will have to put up with less of your crap if you are playing Oblivion. (just teasing Ket )
I know that Ket. But you have to admit, Oblivion is a great game. Well worthy of a few hundred more hours. Dang, now I'm considering it. As if I don't have enought to do already. Bast**d.
I'm feelin' the love !! LOL Not sure that's a good thing. Do you have all of the DLCs and Expansions? The game is so huge I still have not done everything. I liked the Knights of the Nine DLC. It was fun the first time through.
This forum would keep an army of psychologists employed for years. No wonder it has such a high addiction rate. And now you have me wanting to haul Oblivion out as well. Now, where to find these mods . . .
lol I know I think I wanna start playing oblivion again as well. I used to have it for my 360 but I sold my 360 a couple months ago. I might have to go pick up a wired xbox 36 controller so I can play it like before on my PC.
Riigghhtt. Someone's on their game it seems. Ok, let me be more specific. I'm looking for the mods for Oblivion. The ones to modify the game.

WICHITA - The listing of Class 5A state track and field state championships qualifiers from Great Bend High School is long and impressive.
Alex Reed has weathered it all in his senior year at Great Bend High School. Reed, the two-time Class 5A defending state champion in the 400-meter dash in track and field, blew out the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his left knee during a district football game last fall at Salina Central on October 22. After the swelling finally subsided, Reed had major reconstructive knee surgery on Nov. 5. Remarkably, six-plus months later, Reed ...
One win from advancing to the Class 5A state baseball tournament, the Great Bend High School Panthers had their season end with a thud.
Rewind to last spring. The Great Bend High School baseball team advanced to the Class 5A state tournament, where the Panthers lost to eventual state champion Topeka-Seaman 6-5 in the opening round. Today, the Panthers (16-4) are in quest of advancing to the state tournament for the second straight year. They are the host for regional play at Al Burns Memorial Field and will play Topeka West (5-15) in the opener at 2 p.m. No. ...
Both teams are 16-4 overall and playing host to Class 5A regional tournaments on Tuesday in Great Bend.
With one swing of the bat, Jordan Haney sent the Great Bend High School Lady Panthers on their way to a 4-1 victory and a Class 5A regional home berth on Tuesday at Harms Field.
If things pan out right for Great Bend High School, both the Panthers baseball team and the Lady Panthers softball team will be playing host to Class 5A regional tournaments next Tuesday.
GARDEN CITY - The Great Bend High School Panthers wrapped up Western Athletic Conference baseball action in convincing fashion, sweeping Garden City on Tuesday at Clint Lightner Field.
CHANUTE - As numbing as it was for Barton Community College in an 8-7 loss to Johnson County earlier in the day, it in no way compared to the Cougars' second game on Saturday evening.
CHANUTE - An eighth-inning surge by Barton Community College turned out to be one run too few.
After blowing a 7-2 lead in the top of the sixth inning, where Thomas More Prep-Marian tied the game with five runs, Great Bend responded in a big way.
MANHATTAN - Those expecting to see much-ballyhooed transfer Bryce Brown run the football 25-plus times were probably disappointed last Saturday.
It was déjà vu time for the Great Bend High School baseball team. The Panthers scored four runs in the first inning and two runs in the second in building a 6-1 lead in the first game of a Western Athletic Conference doubleheader on Tuesday afternoon at Al Burns Memorial Field. It wasn't enough as Dodge City rallied for a 12-8 victory. After building a 6-0 lead after two innings in the nightcap, scoring four ...
After 5 ½ hours, the medalist for the Great Bend High School Invitational at The Club of StoneRidge had still not been decided.
Abby Morrison put on a power display for the Great Bend High School Lady Panthers on Monday afternoon during the opener of a non-conference doubleheader sweep of Cheney at Harms Field.

John Judis says you're wrong. Obama won.
In negotiating over the fiscal cliff, Obama also did something that he failed to do during [the debt ceiling negotiations in] the summer of 2011: He campaigned publicly. He framed the issues. He put the Republicans on the defensive in a way that he failed to do during much of his first term. Fifty years ago, perhaps, a Democratic president could have relied on constituent groups, led by the labor movement, to carry the battle for liberal initiatives, but while these groups are important, they don't carry the same kind of clout they used to. And they don't have the money to compete with Republican and conservative groups. But the President can command the public's attention, and Obama did—right up through the final days of voting.
One result is that Republicans—Republicans—voted to increase taxes on the wealthy. Yes, the increase is only for wealthies making over about $400,000 a year. Even still, Judis argues this represents "a major political triumph."
Nice that taxes went up for wealthy households, but that 2% increase in payroll taxes will hit the poorest and middle classes much harder.
So once again, the poor and middle classes sacrifice so that the wealthy may sock away more money.

Another tragedy struck Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital Friday, as multiple fire incidents and explosion wrecked havoc in four different locations in the city.
A vessel went up in flames at the Abuloma Jetty. The resultant explosion sent shivers down the spines of residents of the area as about 30 persons onboard were feared dead.
The exact number of persons onboard the vessel could not be determined, but it was leant that crew members, welders who came to carry out maintenance work on the vessel and some ladies suspected to be students from higher institutions in the state were among those who lost their lives in the inferno.
Also, an early morning fire gutted the premises of two media outfits; the Rivers State Newspapers Corporation, publishers of The Tide group of newspapers, and Silverbird's 93.7 Rhythm FM radio station in Port Harcourt.
This came as the Joint Taskforce (JTF), known as the Operation Pulo Shield in the Niger Delta, set five tankers used for illegal bunkering on fire along the Eneka-Igwuruta road in the city.
In the vessel incident, THISDAY gathered that three persons who managed to jump into the river were rescued and were rushed to the hospital by an ambulance belonging to the Rivers State government, although they were still unconscious.
Eyewitnesses said the vessel explosion occurred at about 9.45am Friday, when the vessel had berthed to enable welders carry out a maintenance work, following a leakage noticed on the ferry.
One of the eyewitnesses, who gave his name as Iyke Mo, said the welders were trying to seal an opening on the vessel's fuel tank, when the explosion occurred.
Two other smaller vessels near the vessel that exploded also went up in flames, but people around there used water pumping machines to put out the fire on the two ferries.
Five hours after the incident, men from the Rivers State Fire Service arrived the scene, but it was difficult to put out the fire because their vehicle could not access the vessel.
As at 2pm when THISDAY left the scene the fire was still raging.
The eyewitness said that the explosion threw one of the welders several feet above the vessel, even as the victim crashed back into the raging fire, adding that the vibration from the explosion affected buildings in the area.
"I was in my house when I heard the explosion. My room vibrated from the explosion. When I rushed out of my room, People were shouting fire and I saw thick smoke covered everywhere," Iyke Mo said.
Another eyewitness, Isaac Sanko said: "The fuel tanker of the ship was not properly washed and flushed before the welding work began. There are several people inside it (vessel). Some girls inside too."
Commenting on the incident, the Rivers State Sector Commander, Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC), Dr. Kayode Olagunju, said, "An oil vessel around 9:45hrs caught fire and exploded at the Abuloma Waterfront in Port Harcourt. Fire still restricted to water area.
"FRSC, NEMA, Police, fire service and other rescue agencies on the ground. Casualty figure not known yet," Olagunju said.
On its part, the National Emergency Management Agency, NEMA while confirming the explosion said casualty could not be ascertained at the time of filing this report.
Regional Coordinator of NEMA, South-South, Mr. Emenike Umesi, said, "We have not been able to ascertain how many persons involved in the explosion. NEMA and other relevant agencies are still on rescue work after which we will make public how many persons that may have died."
In The Tide incident, the fire outbreak, which was said to have started at about 2am, destroyed equipment and property valued millions of Naira.
The fire, which completely destroyed the 2nd floor of the building, affected the office of the General Manager of the corporation, audit department, Credit Control office and the board room located on the left wing of the floor.
Ten Air Conditioners, ceiling fans and other office equipment were burnt in the inferno.
The State Commissioner for Information and Communication, Mrs. Ibim Seminitari and other government officials visited the scene to assess the damage.
General Manager of the corporation, Mr. Celestine Ogolo, opined that the fire may have been caused by a faulty electrical appliance.
The Joint Task Force (JTF) Sector 2, Operation Pulo Shield, also said it destroyed five tankers allegedly involved in illegal oil bunkering.

Hope for further stimulus was the driving force behind gains, said Danielle Park, president and portfolio manager of Venable Park Investment Counsel Inc.
But, Park added, "There are negative surprise risks in the Greek election this weekend and I am not convinced Bernanke and Co. will be ready to announce QE3 this early, so I think risks remain tilted to the downside," referring to a third round of quantitative easing by the U.S. Federal Reserve.
Canada's benchmark for metals mining stocks /quotes/zigman/24977/realtime XX:TTMN +0.11% saw a rise of 1.7%. Among highest percentage gainers in the sector were Taseko Mines /quotes/zigman/18149/realtime CA:TKO +0.49% , jumping 7.8%, and Thompson Creek Metals /quotes/zigman/38973/realtime CA:TCM +0.42% , up 8.9%.
Ivanhoe Mines /quotes/zigman/21277782/realtime CA:IVN +0.50% slid 9.9%. Ivanhoe announced late Thursday its first sale of copper-gold concentrate from the Osborne Copper-Gold Project, based in northwestern Queensland.
Gold for August delivery rose 0.5% to $1,628.10 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange, settling higher for a sixth-straight session. .
The information technology sector /quotes/zigman/23269/realtime XX:TTTK +0.03% rose by 1.7%, with help from Open Text Corp. /quotes/zigman/12454/realtime CA:OTC +0.17% , up 2.1%
Research in Motion shares were down 3.6% at the previous session's close, but a 5.3% climb Friday reversed Thursday's losses.
Class B shares of Transat /quotes/zigman/33171/realtime CA:TRZ.B +0.79% , travel agent and tour operator, were down 7% after the company reported second-quarter losses and LB Securities Equities Research lowered its target price by C$3.15 to C$3.85. Transat pointed to increasing hotel and fuel prices, as well as tough competition, for the lower than expected financial results.
Canada's manufacturing sales for April fell short of expectations, declining 0.8%. The drop was seen most significantly in the petroleum and coal products sectors. In a response issued by Capital Economics, analysts wrote that while the "sluggish U.S. recovery continues to hurt the manufacturing sector's performance... the drop back in energy prices and depreciation of the Canadian dollar should provide some modest relief, at least for manufacturers."
Despite disappointing economic news, Canada's stock market this week tallied gains of 0.2%. The S&P 500 /quotes/zigman/3870025/realtime SPX +0.20% added 1.3%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average /quotes/zigman/627449/realtime DJIA +0.06% rose 1.7% from week ago close.
"Every piece of economic data over the past week has come in significantly under expectations. So bad news is good in a stock and commodity market desperate for more speculation," said Park.
The Canadian dollar /quotes/zigman/4867882/realtime/sampled USDCAD +0.1533% rose 0.12%, with the U.S. dollar buying C$1.0219 vs. C$1.0231 Thursday. Year to date, the U.S. dollar has gained 0.06% on Canada's dollar.

Critical Essays
Throughout his writing career, even as a screenwriter, Larry Kramer focused on matters relating to homosexuality. His screenplay of Lawrence's Women in Love emphasized Lawrence's thinly veiled dealings with homosexuality in that novel. Kramer emphasized this in his film version. His gay novel, Faggots, although it cannot legitimately be called a critical or artistic success, has stayed in print almost continuously since its publication in 1978 and is said to have sold close to half a million copies. In it, as in his unhappy experience with the bureaucracy of the Gay Men's Health Crisis, are found intimations of themes explored in his two most strident plays, The Normal Heart, which has evoked comparisons to Henrik Ibsen's En folkefiende (pb. 1882; An Enemy of the People, 1890), and The Destiny of Me. Kramer's nonfiction also emphasizes the inroads that AIDS has made on the lives of all Americans.
The Normal Heart
The Normal Heart is transparently autobiographical. Ned Weeks, the protagonist, devotes himself to arousing the public about the dangers of AIDS. As the play progresses, Kramer, as playwright, becomes increasingly angry, finally erupting into an unequivocal rage against the government, the medical profession, the press, and the gay community for their reluctance to deal with the crisis and to work toward eliminating it.
The play takes place in...

1. ST. ANTHONY'S FOOTBALL The winning streak is up to 24, but it wasn't easy as the Friars overcame a 7-3 halftime deficit and held off Xaverian, 16-14. Up next: Another potential tough one, as St. Anthony's hosts rival Chaminade (5-1 overall, 4-1 in CHSFL) on Friday night.
2. SACHEM EAST FIELD HOCKEY The Flaming Arrows just keep moving and squashing any doubt along the way. Sachem East defeated East Islip, 1-0, and beat Ward Melville, 4-0, for a second time last week to maintain a flawless record.
3. MASSAPEQUA BOYS VOLLEYBALL In a match of unbeatens, the Chiefs swept Plainview JFK to take sole possession of first place in Conference I at 10-0. They've won 23 consecutive sets.
4. NORTH SHORE GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY The Vikings continue to roll and are undefeated in league meets. Led by Brianna Nerud and Samantha Nadel, North Shore is poised to repeat as state champions.
5. GARDEN CITY FIELD HOCKEY Garden City dominated its three games last week, outscoring opponents 21-0. That includes a 5-0 win over Cold Spring Harbor, whom they had tied in September.
6. FREEPORT FOOTBALL Isaiah Barnes was 8-for-11 for 132 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 104 yards and two touchdowns to lead Freeport over Uniondale, 27-18. Leondre Simmon had a 28-yard TD catch and added an interception and forced fumble for the defending Class I champs.
7. LINDENHURST GIRLS VOLLEYBALL In two Suffolk League II wins, Emily Clemens totaled 55 assists and 22 kills as the Bulldogs remained undefeated (10-0) as the top Class AA school on Long Island.
8. SAYVILLE FOOTBALL The big story in the Golden Flashes' 41-0 victory over Bellport was the record-setting performance of quarterback Steven Ferreira. With 237 yards passing, Ferreira became Long Island's all-time leader in career passing yardage with 5,384 . . . and counting. With three more TD passes, Ferreira has 59 and should challenge the Long Island career mark of 68.
9. SACHEM EAST BOYS SOCCER The surprising Flaming Arrows continue to roll. Three teams in their league were picked by coaches to finish ahead of them, but the Flaming Arrows are unbeaten. They picked up three more wins without allowing a goal, including a 1-0 win over Ward Melville. Ansel Ueshiro had two goals and one assist in the three wins.
10. ST. ANTHONY'S GIRLS SOCCER Facing their toughest CHSAA opponent in Sacred Heart, the unbeaten Friars (8-0-4) emerged with a 4-1 win behind goals from Genevieve Crescenzo, Jessica Lucas, Reanna Marino and Margo McGinty.

Financial Services
401 Golden Shore, 5th Floor
Long Beach, CA 90802-4210
FOA Delegates
FSAC Members
Senior Accounting Manager, Systemwide and CO Accounting
FY2010-11 Federal Award Funding Exchange
The CSU has received its final installment of funds from the State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF) authorized by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) which was approved by Congress last year. As a continuation of the contract requirements of the Office of Planning and Research (OPR), the CSU is to use these funds for salary costs associated with the instruction and educational support services of students. To comply with the contract, the funds can only be used to support costs within a few of the CSU's FIRMS program codes. Due to this requirement, only selected campuses will receive this year's ARRA funding. This determination was based on the campus' payroll volume and their ability to absorb the total funding within the allowable program codes for the October pay period.
This distribution of the award funding should have no financial effect on the selected CSU campus' 2010/2011 budget allocation. There will be a series of transactions to exchange the award funds with the campus' SWIFT dollars. Below are the three transactions that will occur:
- Allocation Order (AO)
- New this Year! A new PeopleSoft fund within the General Fund (GF), SCO Fund 0001 Ref Item 501, needs to be created by each campus using FNAT Key # 129811.
- Record the AO 10-027 to the budget ledger within this new GF fund.
- Plan of Financial Adjustment (PFA)
- Use the same PeopleSoft fund, within CSU Fund 485 that is mapped to the restricted-other net asset category using FNAT Key # 128955, as you used last year. If preferred, campuses may choose to create a new fund.
- Record AD NOAT 10-095 to the Actuals ledger within both the new GF fund and the 485 restricted Trust Fund.
- Cash Posting Order (CPO)
- New this Year! This CPO will exchange the award funds with SWIFT dollars. This transaction allows the Systemwide Budget office to receive SWIFT dollars from the selected campus in exchange for the award funding allocation.
- Record the CPO 10-0211 as a swap transaction similar to the end of the fiscal year swap transactions. This will be recorded to your non-restricted CSU Operating fund unlike the PFA and AO noted above.
The above three transactions will have zero financial effect to the selected campuses. The ARRA Allocation amounts outlined in the September 13, 2010 letter from Executive Vice Chancellors Smith and Quillian to the CSU Presidents should not be considered in this process. The final 2010/11 budget allocations can be found in the Systemwide Budget Office's Code Memo B10-04 2010/11 Budget Act Allocations.
