Confidence among U.S. consumers fell in September to a four-month low as Americans grew less upbeat about the outlook for employment.
The Conference Board's index declined to 79.7 from a revised 81.8 a month earlier that was stronger than initially estimated, the New York-based private research group said today. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of economists called for a decrease this month to 79.9.
Uneven employment growth and limited wage gains are keeping consumer purchases, which make up about 70% of the world's largest economy, from accelerating. At the same time, a pickup in household wealth reflecting improved property values and higher stock prices may help ensure Americans won't retrench.
"The quality as well as the pace of new jobs has not been improving," Yelena Shulyatyeva, an economist in New York at BNP Paribas, said before the report. Mortgage rates may not be "high by historical standards, but a noticeable increase" is also weighing on sentiment, she said.
Estimates of consumer sentiment ranged from 76 to 83 in the Bloomberg survey of 78 economists after a previously reported August reading of 81.5. The Conference Board's measure averaged 53.7 in the recession that ended in June 2009. The cutoff date for the survey was Sept. 13, around the time the Obama administration was considering a military strike on Syria.
Another report today showed home prices climbed in the 12 months to July by the most since February 2006.
The S&P/Case-Shiller index of property values increased 12.4% from July 2012 after advancing 12.1% a month earlier. The year-over-year gain matched the median projection of 31 economists surveyed by Bloomberg.
Expectations Fall
The Conference Board's barometer of consumer expectations for the next six months fell to 84.1 after 89 a month earlier. A gauge of present conditions improved to 73.2 in September from 70.9 a month earlier.
The fewest respondents since March said they expected their incomes to rise. The share dropped to 15.4% in September from 17.5% a month earlier. The share of Americans who said jobs would become more plentiful in the next six months fell to 16.9% from 17.5%.
At the same time, the gap between those who said work opportunities are currently scarce, and those who said they're easy to get, shrank to the lowest since September 2008.
Recent improvements in the labor market have been uneven. Employers created 169,000 jobs in August, and the prior two months' gains were revised down, Labor Department figures showed this month. The unemployment rate dropped to 7.3%, a more than four-year low, in part because workers left the labor force.
Federal Reserve
The lack of more progress in the job market was behind the decision of Federal Reserve policy makers to refrain from reducing the monthly pace of monthly stimulus. Central bankers said they need to see more evidence of sustained economic strength.
"Conditions in the job market today are still far from what all of us would like to see," Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said following the Federal Open Market Committee's two-day session on Sept. 18. "The committee has concern that rapid tightening of financial conditions in recent months would have the effect of slowing growth."
Speculation the Fed would begin paring the $85 billion monthly pace of bond purchases has pushed up mortgage rates, threatening to slow the recovery in housing.
More Americans indicated in today's confidence survey that they plan to buy homes and automobiles in the next six months.
Auto Sales
The auto industry has been thriving as Americans replace older models and take advantage of dealer incentives, some of which include interest-free financing. Ford Motor Co., General Motors Co. and Toyota Motor Corp. posted U.S. sales gains in August that beat analyst estimates. The annualized pace of motor vehicle sales climbed to 16 million in August, the highest in almost six years, according to data from Ward's Automotive Group.
While some consumers are spending on big-ticket goods such as new cars and appliances, they may be cutting back elsewhere. Retailers from Macy's Inc. to Wal-Mart Stores Inc. cut forecasts after missing their second-quarter sales targets.
Clarence Otis, chairman and chief executive officer at Darden Restaurants Inc., owner of the Red Lobster and Olive Garden chains, referred to "guests who need more affordability," on a Sept. 20 earnings call. "They've got to do some more disciplined budgeting, and dining out is one of the things that may be paying a price for that," Otis said.
CEO Outlook
Chief executive officers reported a dimmer economic outlook in the third quarter, according to a Business Roundtable survey last week. Fewer company leaders expected a pickup in sales and capital spending in the next six months. Half of the respondents indicated that uncertainty over the budget debate in Washington may keep their companies from hiring.
Deloitte LLP, a New York-based consulting firm, said retail sales may climb as much as 4.5% this holiday shopping season, about the same as last year.
"Rising home prices with steady job creation may buoy consumers," Daniel Bachman, Deloitte's senior U.S. economist, said in a statement.
At the same time, it may be difficult for lower-income households to boost spending after a 2 percentage-point increase in the payroll tax at the start of the year. The poverty rate hovered close to a two-decade high, while median household income showed little change, according to a Sept. 18 report from the Commerce Department.

looking forward!
i've had an idea, and i'm not sure how easy it is to achieve this, but i think it would be phenomenal if twisted came up with an RJDJ scene or app. basically you use the headphones with the microphone, and the app modulates the sound that you hear around you. some 'scenes' actually incorporate pre-recorded music and you can create tracks by just walking around, talking/singing into it, and taking in the sounds around you. it's a pretty magical experience.
to give you background -
http://rjdj.me/ (highly recommended to try on the iPhone)
the reason why i've had this idea is because i've seen an app developed by Air to promote their Love album - http://rjdj.me/app/air/9/
and i've recently seen that booka shade are getting in on it.
i couldn't help but think how awesome this would work with any of the twisted artists' music.

Basildon Council needs £528k to repaint its yellow lines
12:00pm Tuesday 17th April 2012 in Local News By Jon Austin
MOTORISTS could avoid parking tickets across Basildon because of the poor state of double yellow lines.
Basildon Council needs £528,000 to repaint road markings and maintain signs in all its restricted parking areas to ensure parking tickets can be issued – a survey found.
However only a small amount of the cash is available.
County Hall has agreed a subsidy of just £250,000 to be shared across seven local councils, which make up the South Essex Parking Partnership, meaning Basildon will only get a slice.
Malcolm Buckley, Basildon councillor responsible for environmental issues, said: "Under the partnership the parking control scheme is supposed to be self-funding, with money generated by fines paying for staff and this sort of maintenance.
"The county council will only subsidise it for the first few years, so financially it could worsen."
Mr Buckley said Basildon was breaking even with the fines it dished out and therefore did not have the money to improve signs and repaint double yellow lines.
In December 2010 the Echo revealed traffic wardens were unable to fully enforce parking restrictions in 58 streets due to faded road markings or missing signs. It is believed, the majority of these have not been improved.
If a ticket is issued in such an area, the motorist has a good chance of a successful appeal, meaning the fine would be cancelled.
The issue is being raised at Basildon's full council meeting this Thursday.
A report ahead of the meeting said: "The overview and scrutiny committee expressed concern at the disparity between the budget allocated for maintenance within the borough and the amount that had been identified for Basildon."
The report said Mr Buckley wrote to Tracey Chapman, county council councillor responsible for highways, to see if more funding would be provided.
She replied saying no more money was available, but she was committed to "developing a planned approach".
An Essex County Council spokesman said: "The council provides an annual maintenance budget for signs and lines, which is prioritised by the parking partnerships."

FLORENCE, S.C. (AP) — Two researchers at Clemson University hope a new smartphone application will help home gardeners identify common garden pests and get information about when to do certain types of gardening maintenance.
Sarah White and J.C. Chong are part of the team that helped develop IPMLite. They say the high-tech gardening tool puts vital information like alerts about pest outbreaks and disease management at a gardener's fingertips.
IPMLite costs $9.99 and is available for iPhone and Android. It was developed using funding from the University of Tennessee.
The program was developed by the same team of southeastern scientists that put together the IPMPro app for professional landscapers and arborists.

Navarre High School held a special ceremony Friday evening prior to the opening kickoff in their game against Choctawhatchee High School at Bennet C. Russell Stadium to retire the jersey of Ian Lockwood, a former Raider who succumbed to brain cancer in January 2011 after a courageous two-year battle that inspired an entire community.
Lockwood, a senior at the time of his passing, was a star football player for Navarre High and a Navarre Beach lifeguard. Lockwood's No. 10 was permanently retired in his honor with the remarks that "Ian will forever be our No. 10." Ian's parents, sister and fellow team members were on the field to receive the jersey in the emotional ceremony.

Protection in your pocket
on May 10, 2013 @ 7:19 am (Updated: 8:13 am - 5/10/13 )Now that the Cleveland abduction case has us all looking twice at reclusive neighbors, wondering which one might be a closet slaveowner - what do we do?
And I know that statistically cases like this are insignificant, it is never going to happen to you child, except that's what those families in Cleveland thought too.
But you can't keep your kids indoors 24/7. And we're not going to give the cops the power to search house to house every time a kid vanishes. So how about this:
"When you feel threatened just open iWitness and arm it with a simple tap of the finger."
This is a personal protection app.
"Now you're ready to capture video and audio and send it instantly to a secure server," says an ad for the app.
This is one of several personal security apps on the market designed to either deter or help catch predators by turning any smart phone into a security escort.
"If your situation becomes worse, press the red alert button. Your nominated tracker will be alerted to your location so they can send for help," the app explains.
The apps give you various ways to send an alarm quickly - either with a few keystrokes, or by just shaking the phone, like with Guardly.
"Launching Guardly starts a countdown timer. You can cancel the alert, toggle 911 or let it go."
It's a little like a secret service agent in your pocket.
And the surveillance data is stored remotely, so even if the bad guy gets the phone, the evidence is in the cloud.
Now would it deter someone as obsessed as Ariel Castro? Maybe not.
But high-end cars have automatic locators - that's how the cops found the Tsarnaev brothers hijacked SUV- if it saves a few hijacked kids, why not?

sorry to all the people complaining but this is a funny shirt, star wars or not. i think its fine to have more than 1 shirt of any subject matter as long as they are well done. -
robinzeggblu said 219 weeks ago
i love the concept, but im not a huge fan of the glasses, and DEF not a fan of having my boobs highlighted by robot faces o.O placement is no good for the girls shirt. nice design though! Star Wars FTW! -
alimd said 219 weeks ago
I agree with Melbel, not everyone likes starwars, and even those who do presumably have other interests. Can we stop with the starwars stuff now? 2 in one week is ridiculous.
Also, I honestly only thinks this style works if it's original. If he created something that wasn't a reference in this same style, I'd buy it. It's too cliche this way. In my opinion references only work with realism, better yet hyper-realism, because cartoons have been too overdone in this genre already. -
JonBowerbank said 219 weeks ago
Although funny, it looks a bit too much like something Harry Knowles, Kevin Smith or Comic Book Guy (grotesquely obese people) would wear...sooooo, I'm gonna pass. -

Open-air bar coming to Kama Indian Bistro
LA GRANGE – Double the space could mean double the fun at Kama Indian Bistro, which will debut a new bar and expand its cocktail and beer menu when it moves around the corner to its new home at 9 S. La Grange Road in early July.
The move will allow Kama, currently at 8 W. Burlington Ave., to more than double its seating capacity, from 50 to 115. A bigger kitchen will help owner Vikram Singh increase Kama's menu, which could include more weekend specials and more experimenting with the restaurant's from-sratch sauces.
But the most immediate change will be an enlargened bar and lounge area situated near open windows.

A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel. Madeleine L'Engle, Hope Larson. Farrar, Straus and Giroux. 392 pages. $19.99.
Unsurprisingly, the beloved fantasy story also makes a fantastic all-ages graphic novel. Larson's whimsical and expressive narrative illustrations are ideal for illuminating this quirky coming-of-age tale for smart kids. It's a fine adaptation, and longtime lovers of the original text as well as newbies will delight at the adventures of Meg Murry, her family, friends and the mysterious trio of Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who and Mrs. Which.
Spaceman. Brian Azzarello, Eduardo Risso. DC/Vertigo. 224 pages. $24.99.
The futuristic urban slang in some of the dialogue can be a little challenging, but Azzarello's crazy-good story of abandoned and ostracized future mutants bred for space travel is audacious and riveting. Risso's blazing art depicts this dystopic adventure with dazzling authority and sensitivity. Great science fiction is always rooted in human emotions, and Spaceman soars with passion.
El Illuminado. Ilan Stavans, Steve Sheinkin. Basic. 208 pages. $24.99.
Stavans' self-starring story about a murder mystery, Spanish Catholic-to-New Mexican-Jewish conversos, art, human nature and martyrdom is absorbing, fresh and full of potential. But the unfinished quality of Sheinkin's art undercuts the venture and undermines the storytelling flow. It might be a matter of style rather than of competence, but the result is unsatisfying and frustrating, especially given the rich tapestry Stavans attempts to unfurl.
The Hypo: The Melancholic Young Lincoln. Noah Van Sciver. Fantagraphics. 192 pages. $24.99.
Van Sciver's well-researched delineation of pre-presidential (1837-1842) Abraham Lincoln's dark period of depression is a wonder. The authentically depicted contemporaneous "cures" administered for this mental illness included bloodletting and mercury treatments, which are presented unflinchingly. Though perhaps an odd choice for a graphic novel, Van Sciver's realization of this revealing chapter of American history makes more than perfect sense.
The Graphic Canon, Vol. 2: From "Kubla Khan" to the Bronte Sisters to The Picture of Dorian Gray. Russ Kick. Seven Stories. 512 pages. $34.95.
This prodigious and astounding collection of literary adaptations is staggering in its ambition, but even more so in its execution and realization. Kick's anthology, the middle volume of a chronological trilogy, includes graphic iterations of works by Coleridge, Keats, Twain, Blake, Wordsworth and others, by Megan Kelso, S. Clay Wilson, Dame Darcy, Hunt Emerson, Lance Tooks and Kim Deitch, among the superb array of contributors.
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Book 1. Denise Mina, Andrea Mutti, Leonardo Manco. DC/Vertigo. 152 pages. $19.99.
It's not the only graphic adaptation of the first third of Larsen's Millennium trilogy (there are French and Japanese versions from other publishers), but this book from DC/Vertigo, covering the first half of the novel by the international team of Mina, Manco and Mutti, effects a readable version of the story. Violent and powerful, it's also studded with quiet, meditative moments between the mayhem and mystery. Its rhythm and contents are closer to the original work than the fine David Fincher film, too.

Clinics rush to warn patients of tainted steroid
NEW YORK (AP) — Health providers are scrambling to notify patients in nearly two dozen states that the routine steroid injections they received for back pain in recent months may have been contaminated with a deadly fungal meningitis.
It became apparent Thursday that hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of people who got the shots between July and September could be at risk after officials revealed that a tainted steroid suspected to have caused a meningitis outbreak in the South had made its way to 75 clinics in 23 states.
The Food and Drug Administration urged physicians not to use any products at all from the Massachusetts pharmacy that supplied the preservative-free methylprednisolone acetate.

OTTUMWA, IOWA -- The Ottumwa Fire Department took the opportunity Monday to train some of its newest members.
Firefighters were at a condemned home on South Davis Street, practicing pulling out victims from a smoke filled room, as well as putting out small fires.
The department says that using old vacant buildings that have been condemned by the city is a great way to train for different scenarios.
"We just use this opportunity to train the new guys. Andy Ewing has been a firefighter for just a year now and Justin Clark was just hired about six months ago; so it is a real good opportunity to take advantage of a situation like this and do some good training for them," said Assistant Fire Chief Mike Craff.
"I think it is important to train in different locations. We train out at the burn building and once you have been in there a few times you get used to it; so it is nice to be able to come out to an empty building and smoke it up and crawl through it; and it is different so you don't know what it is and you don't know what to expect a lot of the time. So it is good training for a new guy like me. I was a paramedic for three years and didn't know anything about fire, so it is good to come into that," said Firefighter Justin Clark.
For more information on the Ottumwa Fire Department, contact Chief Tony Miller at 641-683-0666.

My husband and I ate breakfast here, both having the Spanish Omelette with biscuit and gravy. Yes, you read that correctly. The side bread was biscuit and gravy (yum)! Service was fast and friendly. Food was filling before we went hiking.
My husband and I ate breakfast here, both having the Spanish Omelette with biscuit and gravy. Yes, you read that correctly. The side bread was biscuit and gravy (yum)! Service was fast and friendly. Food was filling before we went hiking.
Being one of the only restaurants in town, we decided to go there. And since it was almost thanksgiving, the place was empty. We came in and were welcomed by a really sweet lady. She provided great service and the food was really good! Definitely a place to go, even when there's no one there :)
This cute little coffee shop is, literally, in the round. Well, octagonal might be more accurate. Just down the street from our motel on the main drag in Twenty Nine Palms, it has plenty of parking and one of the friendliest waitresses imaginable. We had breakfast and not only was it huge, but it was excellent, too. The place was... More
With one exception I do not think that Twenty Nine Palms is somewhere to go for high end dining. However, the Carousel Café came recommended from my Hotel and all in all it was a fine experience of a classic American diner/restaurant. This is not a sophisticated place, it has a large menu with all the normal and popular dishes.... More
Hearty meals, cute place and friendly waitress, who handled large crowd by herself with a smile and cheerful personality. Worth a try as a great local family place. Soup was great, entree were tasty, , side veggies were so so.
Enjoyed the special that day. Cheap tasty food with great friendly service. Packed up nicely to go for the road. Burger was delicious. Not too greasy. We kept talking about how it was one of the best lunches we had on our 1 week trip! Will visit again if there again. Thanks carousel!
We stopped by Carousel cafe for to go order because we wanted to have something from local restaurant. We ordered 2 burgers with fries. Only $4.5 each!!! The amount was enough to make us full. Taste is awesome! The lady was very friendly!! Highly recommend!
After a two hour drive to get to Joshua Tree we pulled into this eatery to cool off and fill up. Our waitress was a friendly delight who obviously enjoys her job and engaging the customers. The dishes we got were plentiful and darn tasty, we will go back whenever we are in the area. The only hitch was trying... More
Excellent American food. (Burgers, Steaks, Fish, etc...) Homemade soups and cakes. Huge portions combined with top prices. The most friendly waiter we experenced in a two weeks roadtrip. You feel that she lives "for" this restaurant and is not only an employee. My number one recommendation !!!
I had dinner there and the Money/for what you get was highest. I had a great hamburger with hashbrowns and an entree-salad, just great + a soft drink for 7.95$ i.t.!!! Friendly staff.

The Punisher
Director : Jonathan Hensleigh
Screenplay : Michael France & Jonathan Hensleigh
MPAA Rating : R
Year of Release : 2004
Stars : Thomas Jane (Frank Castle), John Travolta (Howard Saint), Will Patton (Quentin Glass), Laura Harring (Livia Saint), Ben Foster (Spacker Dave), Rebecca Romijn-Stamos (Joan), Samantha Mathis (Maria Castle), John Pinette (Bumpo), Roy Scheider (Frank's Father)
Even if it weren't lost among the glut of vengeance-themed movies currently playing at the multiplex--Walking Tall, Kill Bill: Volume 2, Man on Fire--first-time director Jonathan Hensleigh's The Punisher would still be immediately forgettable. Although a significant improvement over the Marvel character's first screen incarnation, a 1989 campy action fest starring Dolph Lundgren, Hensleigh's film is so dark and morose that it fails to ignite any sense of excitement. Righteous vengeance-excuse me, punishment-never looked so glum.
Thomas Jane (Dreamcatcher) stars as Frank Castle, a tall, dark, and handsome FBI agent whose last sting operation results in the death of the son of Howard Saint (John Travolta), a wealthy and powerful money launderer in Tampa. Saint's dark-eyed, Lady Macbeth of a wife, Livia (Laura Harring), demands that Castle's entire family pay, so Saint dispatches his righthand man, Quentin Glass (Will Patton), and a small army to wipe out Castle's family, which is conveniently assembled at a family reunion. Saint's goons gun down the whole Castle clan-men, women, and children-in a mass slaughter that is, I suppose, intended to represent a loss so harrowing that it creates a sense of righteous indignation that will justify any reaction on Frank's part. This is heightened by the fact that Frank's wife and young child are run down and killed (an obvious homage to Mad Max), and Frank himself is shot several times, blown up, and, of course, assumed to be dead.
He isn't, though, and after five months of off-screen recovery, he returns to Tampa to settle the score with Saint. Frank moves into a grungy rooming house, where his eclectic, but friendly neighbors include Spacker Dave (Ben Foster), a multiply pierced gothic wimp, Bumpo (John Pinette), a tubby Italian kid fond of cooking and opera, and Joan (Rebecca Romijn-Stamos), who is simply too beautiful and nice to be believable as a put-upon recovering alcoholic suffering from a string of abusive boyfriends. They form a family of sorts that tries to include Frank in their outsider circle, but he's usually too busy either refining his arsenal of weaponry (everything from shotguns, to machine guns, to knives, to compound bows, to explosives) or chugging straight from a bottle of Wild Turkey (what better way to maintain his washboard abs?).
Despite the pervasive darkness of the film's tone, Hensleigh, who has written or cowritten a handful of well-known action films, including Die Hard With a Vengeance (1995) and Armageddon (1998), does try to lighten the proceedings now and then, particularly in a rather absurd hand-to-hand fight between Frank and an enormous Russian assassin (played by pro wrestler Kevin Nash). While most of the film's violence is brutal and sadistic (the gunning down of the Castle clan is bad enough, but we also get a scene where Quentin Glass tortures Spacker Dave by pulling out his piercings with a pair of pliers), this scene is deliberately comical, almost slapsticky, and it feels like it was spliced in from another, much lighter movie. When the time is right, though, Hensleigh also turns on the bombast, particularly in a ludicrous sequence in which Frank blows up dozens of cars for absolutely no reason ... until we get a high-angle shot from above that shows us he was creating a fiery image of the skull symbol that adorns his skintight black tee-shirt.
To be fair, Hensleigh make the interesting decision to humanize the film's villain by allowing Travolta to portray Saint as a multidimensional character, rather than just a one-sided baddie. Saint's devotion to his wife is something we don't often see in evil characters, and there is something almost painful in the way the Punisher manipulates that devotion to punish Saint. However, Saint's humanization also impedes the film's florid sense of vengeance, not because it creates some dynamic complication in our moral complicity with the Punisher's actions, but rather because Saint almost doesn't seem worth the effort. Quentin Glass and Livia are much worse people than he is, and by the time they're dispatched, Saint just seems like an afterthought.
Vengeance imagined as necessary justice has a primal force to it, which is why it's such a common storytelling trope. Even those who cling steadfastly to faith in the justice system can't help but feel a twinge of satisfaction when someone outside the law exacts retribution on those who escape the official system. It plays on our desire to live in a world of absolute right and wrong, where evildoers always get what's coming to them and the victimized have a chance to rise up and right what's been wronged. This is why it's so surprising that The Punisher is so ineffective.
It's not just the dark, moody tone or Thomas Jane's sullen performance that brings it down so low. Rather, it's because the movie gives no sense of satisfaction to The Punisher's work. He goes about exacting his punishment with all the vigor and enthusiasm of a kid having to take out the garbage. It's presented as his burden to bear, and thus it comes across as just that-a burden. When Charles Bronson was gunning down criminals in the mean streets of New York in 1974's Death Wish, there was a pervasive glee to his rightwing vigilantism that made it infectious. When Mel Gibson went on a rampage in the original Mad Max (1979) after his family was killed, his actions carried such a sense of reckless determination that you couldn't help but cheer him along. But, when The Punisher saddles up in his Pontiac GTO and sets forth with guns a'blazing, it's a rote exercise that deserves neither condemnation nor applause, just yawns.

One resides in the north half of Texas' 17th District for the US House, the other in the south. One faced incumbent Chet Edwards in the 2008 general election; the other is in his first political race. One has fought with little cash; the other has a big bankroll. Now, they will face off in a Republican runoff.
Rob Curnock of Waco and Bill Flores of Bryan earned the second and first place positions in Tuesday's primary elections. Flores brought in 33 percent of the votes, with Curnock earning 29 percent. They will now face off in an April 13 runoff.
Dave McIntyre came in third place with 18 percent of the votes. Chuck Wilson pulled in 15 percent, and Timothy Delasandro won five percent.
Flores retired as a top executive at a Houston energy company. A Texas A&M grad, he returned to the Twin Cities just a few years ago.
Curnock, the 2008 nominee, was unopposed on the GOP side in his last quest to topple the Democrat, Edwards. He came up short by fewer than eight percent despite being vastly outspent by the incumbent. He is a small business owner.
Edwards was unopposed in the Democratic primary. He is seeking a fourth term as the representative of District 17 as it is current drawn. He won the seat when the district lines were redrawn in 2004 and has twice won re-election. He first won election to Congress in 1990.

The iPhone 5, Apple's newest release.
Posted: 01/02/2013
Just a few months removed from the release of the iPhone 5, rumors are already beginning to swirl about the latest and greatest Apple phone.
Citing a letter written by Topeka Capital Markets analyst Brian White, tech website bgr.com reports the new iPhone 5s will launch in either May or June and come in more colors and screen size option than previous versions.
"White believes the next iPhone will be available in five different colors: pink, yellow, blue, white & silver and black & slate," bgr.com's Zach Epstein wrote . "He also believes there will be two different screen sizes available on the device, marking the first time Apple has released one phone with multiple display size options."
In the letter, White reportedly said the increased options offered by Apple are one reason why his firm has Apple listed as their "top overall pick for 2013," according to Epstein's report on bgr.com.
When contacted, Topeka Capital Markets told 41 Action News that the letter was private and would not be distributed publicly.

Solving the Mystery of Owls' Head-Turning Abilities
Ever wonder how owls can turn their heads almost all the way around?
They have a complex, adaptive network of protective blood vessels that make the structures in our necks look puny–a network that researchers have now dissected, mapped and illustrated for the first time.
"Until now, brain imaging specialists like me who deal with human injuries caused by trauma to arteries in the head and neck have always been puzzled as to why rapid, twisting head movements did not leave thousands of owls lying dead on the forest floor from stroke," said Dr. Philippe Gailloud, an interventional neuroradiologist at Johns Hopkins and a senior researcher on the study, in a statement. A poster depicting these findings won first place in the 2012 International Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge, the journal Science announced yesterday.
The carotid and vertebral arteries in the neck of most animals, including owls and humans, are delicate and fragile structures. They're highly susceptible to minor tears and stretches of vessel linings. In humans, such injuries can be common: whiplash sustained in a car accident, a back-and-forth jarring roller coaster ride or even a chiropractic maneuver gone wrong. But they're also dangerous. Blood vessel tears caused by sudden twisting motions produce clots that can break off, sometimes causing an embolism or stroke that could prove fatal.
Owls, on the other hand, can rotate their necks up to 270 degrees in either direction without damaging the vessels running below their heads, and they can do it without cutting off blood supply to their brains.
Using medical illustations, CT scans and angiography, which produces X-ray images of the inside of blood vessels, researchers studied the bone structure and vascular structure in the heads and necks of a dozen snowy, barred and great horned owls after their deaths from natural causes. All three species are native to the Americas, their habitats stretching from Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost tip of the South American mainland, to the Arctic tundra of Alaska and Canada.
When researchers injected dye into the owls' arteries to mimic blood flow and then manually turned the birds' heads, they saw mechanisms at play that contrasted greatly with humans' head-turning ability. Blood vessels at the base of the owls' heads, just below the jawbone, kept expanding as more of the dye flowed in. Eventually, the fluid pooled into tiny reservoirs. Our arteries tend to get smaller during head rotations and don't balloon in the same way.
Researchers believe this feature is crucial to support the top-heavy winged creatures. While they twist theirs heads back and forth, the owls' reservoirs allow the birds to pool blood to sustain the function of their eyes and brain, which are both relatively large compared to the size of their heads. This interconnected vascular network helps minimize interruption of blood flow.
But these silent hunters' head-on-a-swivel ability continued to be more complex, researchers found. In owls' necks, one of the major arteries feeding the brain passes through bony holes in the birds' vertebrae. These hollow cavities, known as the transverse foraminae, were ten times bigger in diameter than the artery passing through it. The researchers say the roomy extra space creates multiple air pockets that cushion the artery and allow it to travel safely during twisting motions.
"In humans, the vertebral artery really hugs the hollow cavities in the neck. But this is not the case in owls, whose structures are specially adapted to allow for greater arterial flexibility and movement," said lead researcher Fabian de Kok-Mercado in the statement. De Kok-Mercado is a medical illustrator at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Maryland.
This adaptation appeared in 12 of the 14 vertebrae in the owls' necks. The vertebral arteries entered their necks higher up than in other birds, introduced at the 12th vertebrae (when counted from the top) instead of the 14th, which gives the vessels more slack and room to breathe. Small vessel connections between the carotid and vertebral arteries, called anastomoses, let blood flow uninterrupted to the brain, even when owls' necks were contorted into the most extreme twists and turns.
"Our in-depth study of owl anatomy resolves one of the many interesting neurovascular medical mysteries of how owls have adapted to handle extreme head rotations," de Kok-Mercado said.
Up next for the team is studying hawk anatomy to find out if other bird species possess owls' adaptive features for looking far left and right.

I am a regular reader of your magazine, it is really good to read it.
I wanted to communicate a very important thing related to the your online magazine. Whenever i read articles/news on your magazine site, there are some unpleasant/salacious advertisements popping up side by side. I think such advertisements lower the quality of your magazine and also contaminates the reader's mind. So please somehow stop such ads to pop up on your website.

The medical profession's latest attack on Chiropractic is to associate cervical manipulation with stroke, intended to scare people away from treatment. As a Chiropractor in practice for 30 years, I know no one has studied this issue more than Chiropractic malpractice insurance companies and if there were a danger of inducing strokes with manipulation then my malpractice cost would not be the current $2,000 per year, it would be TEN TIMES that rate. Malpractice numbers don't lie and are a good indication of how safe or dangerous different treatments are.

My Sci Fi book was The Green Futures of Tycho. The reason I wanted to read this book was because when Mrs. Berkman read the back of the book I wanted to know what would happen and all the details to the story. I think a interesting moment a new reader would want to hear is that when Tycho found the time traveling device his brothers and sister had cornered him but then he accidently time traveled and they were all confused including Tycho. Wheather or not I would recommend this book to someone depends on the person. If the person likes Sci Fi and specifically time traveling then yes I would recommend it.

Fifteen Members Are Included in Orchestra The orchestra, under the able supervision of Father Francis, is making great headway. When the orchestra was first organized there were only about nine or ten members, but now new musicians have joined and the orchestra includes fifteen students. The following are the instruments: Five violins, two saxophones, trombone, a j cornet, clarinet, drums, bass, cello and piano. With fifteen able musicians there ought to be some progress. Father Francis has agreed that the orchestra practice every Thursday to begin, but after the football season, when the band has disbanded, more practices will be held. I here are members in the orchestra who play excellently. Jack Pargamanik. an experienced violinist, is to play with the orchestra. He is a senior dental student and has had considerable experience playing with orchestras up North. With his knowledge of the best music and with the supervision of l'ather Francis the orchestra will make considerable headway this term. FRANCIS KAMMER DIES AFTER FATAL ILLNESS Loyola lost one of her favorite sons when the death of Francis Kamnier occurred at Hotel Dieu on Friday, October 22. "Peck," as he was always called by his schoolmates and numerous comrades, had been confined to his bed for some weeks preceding his decease. An infected hip-bone contaminated his blood to such an extent that a severe case of blood-poisoning set in and, in spite of the best physical attention, he soon succumbed to the malady. He was buried from Holy Name Church at Loyola on Saturday morning. October 23. The requiem mass was performed by Father Navin. who was served by Blanchard. Glas, Tujague and Egan, all students of Loyola and fraternity brothers of Kammer. Fathers Sullivan, O'Conner, Burke, Mulry, Entz, King and Foulkes also assisted in the ceremony. As a student and gentleman Kammer was always considered a worthy example. He was always alert to the call of duty and ready to lend a helping hand in the undertakings of others. As a member of the Loyola band, the Dramatic Club, the Sodality and various other student organizations, he aided in the material advancement of his school and its activities. CAPTAIN SPEAKS TO STUDENTS NAVY DAY Shows Where Navy Is Necessary to Protect Policies. _ "We need a navy because we have policies here and abroad to protect, and a nation is only as strong as its navy," said Captain Trausig oi the j United States cruiser Trenton, when j he addressed the members of the arts and science department in Marquette Auditorium on Navy Day. "Take China for instance." he continued. "She had policies but did not have a strong enough navy to protect them. Consequently China was the j prey of greedy nations who wished to control her trade. And this would have been the case had the United States not intervened, with her navy, and saved the ill-protected nation, by stating that China was open for trade with all nations." "We all believe in peace," said the speaker, "but the pacifists wants to do away with the navy. He holds that the navy is the cause of war. At that rate, we may as well do away with our police since it would be the cause of crime." The captain went on to show that it wasn't very expensive to maintain the navy. At present the government is spending $.3,000,000 annually in keeping up its maritime force. That means only three dollars per capita, pointed out Captain Trausig. which is very cheap insurance. The Captain invited the students to go aboard and inspect the Trenton. It is a light cruiser. 550 feet long, with 100,000 horse-power engines, and capable of making great speed. NATL FRATERNITY GIVES CHAPTER TO ALPHA PHI DELTAS Installation of Edgar Howard Farrar Senate Takes Place During Summer. There are now three national Luw Fraternities at Loyola. On July 2, 1926, the Delta Theta Phi fraternity blazed a trail into the South with the installation of Edgar Howard Farrar Senate, composed of students o: the Loyola Law School. Several years ago a group of Loyola law students, desiring to perpetuate their school friendship in later professional life, formed Alpha Phi Delta, a local Greek letter society, one of the first organizations of its kind on Loyola campus. It was not long until members of Alpha Phi Delta realized Commerce and Finance Night Course Improved In order to meet the constantly increasing demand for young men and women who are able to cope with the problems of economic reconstruction, the university has greatly improved its night course of commerce and finance by adding to the curriculum a number of instructors whose experience entitles them to speak with authority. They are: Mr. John V. Connors, Ph. D" business economics am! sociology, and Mr. Arthur M. Curtis I.T, B" commercial law. Instructors in accountancy. all whom are certified public ac, countants, arc: Mr. Frank Youngman, Mr. Thomas Dubourg, Mr. Charles Seeinan, Mr. Louis Pilie and Mr. Sidney Bourgeois. These lecturers arc men who arc experts in their respective branches, and they base their lectures upon the most practical and efficient business methods. The department also offers courses in Spanish. The object is to give a thorough and practical knowledge of this language to business men and women. Correct and technical commercial forms of expression are featured. These classes are very valuable to those interested in foreign trade, secretarial, or correspondence work. LIBRARY EXTENSION OPENS NEXT WEEK The new extension to the Bohet Library, opposite the dean's office, will he opened to the entire studen* body sometime next week. The shelves have been installed and the tables and chairs arranged in the room. All are invited to visit the new extension and to make known their wants to the librarian. During the last week a great 'lumber of books on Social Science, concerning socioliogy and economics, to be used by pupils of Mr. Connor's day an J night classes in economics were installed. A number of reference books, pertaining to mathematics and English, were also received. HOLLYWOOD MOVES TO LOYOLA STADIUM Hollywood seemed to have moved out to Loyola stadium for a short while 011 Wednesday afternoon, October 20, when Mae McAvoy, film actress, and her cohorts, swept onto the gridiron for the purpose of shooting a few scenes with the football team. And the manner in which Miss Mc- Avoy handled herself as quarterback whilst the photographer was grinding away on the camera shows that Hollywood is not at all out-of-place among the beef-and-brawn grid warriors. She was undoubtedly a worthy substitute for Bucky Moore, although she did have to reward the Dixie! Flyer with a little kiss to make him relinquish his position. Bucky registered no perceptible objection, but was pathetically abashed. While the charming young actress was making her debut as a Wolf, she was cheered by a large number of students who had gathered to greet her. In one scene when she was posing with the squad, she was given a basket of American beauty roses by Grace Taylor, representing the Lambda Tau Lambda sorority. Miss McAvoy's visit was due to the efforts of Mr. William Coker and Mr. B. S. DAntoni, members of the Athletic Council. She came to New Orleans to be present at the premiere of "The Fire Brigade," in which she j played the leading role. GANUCHEAU IS HEAD OF DRAMATIC CLUB Succeeds Howard Bogner As President of Thespians. The election of officers of the Dramatic Civil), which took place last week, resulted in the replacement of Howard Bogner as president by Paul Ganucheau, a sophomore of the arts and ' science department, and the election of Gerard Rault and Harvey Strayhan to the positions of vice-president and secretary, respectively. Rault succeeds I Hilary Gaudin and Strayhan replaces | Malcolm Schwarzenbach. Both Ganucheau and Rault have had considerable experience as members of I the Philelectic Society of the local Jesuits High School, of which they were vice-president and president, respectively, in 11J25,llJ25, and have participated in numerous amateur stage productions as well as debates and should, therefore, prove fully capable of handling their duties at the head of the Loyola Dramatic Club. Strayhan is from Shreveport where he has been affiliated with amateur theatricals for some time. His work ! in last year's production entitles him to rank with the best amateur actors seen in New Orleans for some time, and i his election is a well-merited honor. Father O'Connor is taking charge of the Dramatic Club this season and as he is exceedingly well acquainted with the subject, should have little difficulty in directing the plays. There is a possibility that the Dramatic Club will produce a series of one-act plays during the course of the year, bef re staging their annual production, instead of giving only one play as was done last year. SENIOR LAW CLASS GIVES FELLOWSHIP BOAT RIDE TONIGHT Entertains Day and Night Departments with Dance on Island Queen. With the object of bringing the various branches of both the night and day school into closer fellowship the senior night law class, together with the entire night department, has chartered the steamer Island Queen for a gala boat ride and dance on the Mississippi river at eight-thirty to-night. Tickets have been placed in the hands of each class president, and the students are urged to purchase them now, as none will be sold at the wharf. This is the first affair of its sort ever attempted at Loyola, but judging from the numerous comments passed around the campus during the past week the students are enthusiastic and will turn out for the hoatride almost a hundred per cent. The sale of tickets yesterday passed the 1.800 mark, and it is expected to be near .3,000 before five o'clock this afternoon. The committee formed to take charge of the entertainment includes Chester A. Ptyronin of the Honor Council, chairman; John J. Conners. president ex-officio of the night law seniors; Richard Crosby, secretary of the senior class; John H. Carter, sophomore president; Stiffel, freshman president; and F Jackson, president of the student council. The Y. W. O. 1., and the Marquette, two of the ladies' auxiliary societies, have pledged their support and arc co-operating with the committee to insure a successful evening.Journal Contract Given to American Printing Co. The contract fnr the printing of the Dental Journal for the coming year has been given to the American Printing Company of New Orleans, according to a recent announcement by members of the Journal staff. As in previous years, the 1926 Journal will be issued quarterly and will make its initial appearance before the students on or about November 10. Some of the more important topics which will be discussed in the November edition will be the business side of dentistry, reports on the American Dental Association's meetings, the questions of the 1926 Dental State Board and autrum operations. Joe Nolan, business manager of the Journal this year, has been busy on the advertising end of the work for several weeks already and is rounding up a representative number of advertisements for the first issue. The establishment of the Loyola Dental School on the plane of a Class A institution is expected to be a great aid in the acquiring of advertisements, as this distinction is an unusual one for a dental school to merit in such a short time, and is bound to gain recognition from local as well as national advertisers.(Continued on I'aKc 7.)

Old rusty cock!
I have been thinking of this project for a little while…I call it "Cock". This old rusty cock was in my buddies backyard. I looked him straight in the eye and said "I need your cock" "let me take your cock home to photograph it" "come on, this cock will be the first cock shot in a never ending photographic series of cocks!" He let me take his cock home. So I did a little set up in the studio and produced the image at top…"old rusty cock". The bottom image is the set up with studio strobes and jells and stands and one rusty old cock! The best part about this blog entry is the fact that I got to say cock twelve times!
A Niagara on the Lake wedding. A Testimonial.
"Well guys, after seeing just one beautiful shot, I am 100% confident we hired the right photographers and we are going to be thrilled with what you have done!! Although we already knew that after having worked with you!! Thank you so so much for giving Lisa the pic early – it is stunning and was such a touching gift to get as soon as we returned from our honeymoon! I can not wait to see the rest."
