Dear Mandy,
Thank you for your blatant sexist remarks in assuming that I am a man.
The 1950's
It was surprising to read the negative comment posted by Reality Check. Those comments were so, so negative and so against the efforts which the SOTAs make to bring the community together, if for one single evening during the year. All great projects begin as a small seed with an idea. To criticize the criteria for membership or anything else at this time is ridiculous because all of those things are things that develop with time and with the help of people who unite to the project to make it better. I should remind you that this is but the fifth year of the SOTAs. To celebrate and recognize, what is during the year, hard, exhausting work and dedication by so many wonderful artists in Sonoma County, is not something to be criticized but supported. Briano has the right idea here and the spirit and I wholeheartedly support him in his efforts. Rather than criticize the SOTAs, united in mediocracy should do a reality check on himself and his attitude. If you don't like what you see, involve yourself and help fix it, help make it better rather then to sit behind a computer and cover the project with a dark cloud.
Dear TheaterGoer,
You sound like someone who is guilty that they actually didn't make it to see much theater outside of SSU last year. Craven said that she doubted that "MANY SSU students" made it out after acknowledging that schedules make it difficult to for local theater artists to see others work. Frankly the rest of your post is ridiculous - to attack Mrs. Lichenstein and Mrs. Craven, and say that they are what is wrong with North Bay Theater shows your ignorance and your lack of respect for two women who are frankly responsible for 2 theaters remaining open in Sonoma County - theaters that constantly put on work that is completely "legitimate" in the eyes of the Bay Area theater. But I'm sure that you give up much of your time for free to keep a non-profit open, right TheaterGoer?
And finally, it would be good to point out that an awards ceremony does little to "unite" people. Especially this morning, the local community is awash with how ridiculous this years nominees are... The SOTA's are not leading to unity, they are leading to another forum, like the complete bullshit "Broadway Bay Area Awards", where there is no criteria for membership - just a scorecard of how many of your friends can send Briano an email and get a ballot.
United in mediocrity. Bravo indeed.
As a SOTA Academy member myself, I can personally say that in just five years, the awards have grown incredibly and are steadily working toward a more professional arena. Even the first year, it wasn't exclusively SSU shows nominated. By year 4, more than 8 theatre companies comprised the nominees. While it's still a growing organization, the hard-working people behind are SOTA including its president are doing a great job, I think of continuing to build and make the show better. The show itself is a piece of theatre and wonderfully honors and recognizes everyone's hard work. There will always be people with something opposing to say about it- that's their opinions and that's perfectly fine. I do hope that the public or other theatre artists can come to show and see what they think about it. It's always a fun night where people from all circles of theatre can meet, greet, share, and share a nice experience.

Curious as to why Craven would doubt that SSU students would see shows outside of SSU. Young actors in Sonoma County make up an incredibly huge part of the theatre scene outside of scholastic environments. It's hers and Lichtenstein's self centered, exclusive and closed mindset that's keeping the North Bay theatre community shut out from the world of legitimate Bay Area theatre. Even though it might not be a perfect model for an awards group, Briano's efforts to be inclusive and celebrate the community are inspiring. And it's not surprising that it's a young person championing unity in our arts community. Much of the most exciting, effective and daring theatre being produced in the North Bay comes from companies that are largely run by folks under 40. I say Bravo.

Perhaps you might understand being stupid with your writing and regretting your worded opinion.
That is not writing.
First and foremost, I think it is important to remember that this article was written by a person offering his *opinion*. While this person gets paid to offer his opinion, and many readers put stock in it because of this, I think we can all agree that the arts are a VERY subjective field. What's sauce for the goose may be poison for the gander. Second, even if Mr. Templeton's voice were law--and I am sure that even he would agree it is not--I have not seen all ten shows on this list. And even if I had, I was also on stage as an 'intrepid member' of August: Osage County, and could not offer a truly objective opinion of the show. Regarding the craft itself, I would have to agree with theatrgoer37 re: DTA's opening comment. I don't think it is good form to down-talk my fellow storytellers. Our work is rewarding, certainly--but it is also difficult and challenging for all who aspire to it whole-heartedly. There is nothing more hurtful or infuriating than hearing an audience member--or, especially, a fellow artist--make a comment that trivializes that effort. In that vein, I will also respectfully disagree with the assessment of others on the comment thread that a show like BATB should be appreciated for its 'effort.' The idea that a show is good "especially when you consider [it was produced] primarily by students" is also, in my opinion, demeaning. I have met more than my fair share of people in theater who are union members and aren't worth the title, and those who have 'day jobs' who are the pinnacle of professionalism and hard work. But, ultimately, the work we do is for the audience's benefit, and if they leave the theater richer people, we have done our job. If we step onto that stage for anything less--especially something selfish like accolades or awards--we are doing a disservice to ourself, our production mates, and the audience.
The Beauty and the Beast cast did amazing! Not only is the music difficult to live up to but it has held an amazing record on Broadway, maybe I am biased by being a SRJC student but I also saw the original broadway cast of Beauty and the Beast. I know this show very well and I must remark I have never seen a performance of this musical by a non-professional production that put more energy and enjoyment into the play. Normally I bored with school Beauty and the Beast but thankfully this production team as well as the cast created something fresh not simply copy cating the original. The acting was not flat, in fact I felt it was rather strong. This production has been nominated for American Conseveratory Theatre Festival as well as being one of only ten plays or musicals nominated to perform a scene there. Simply put I think it is better to look at the positive rather than the negative, and there is tons. And I know that the set and costumes were all made by the SRJC students during the show. It's about time I think the bohemian recognize a musical and a SRJC production
I have seen every show on this list including Osage County, and speaking only as a patron I am disgusted with the comments I see here. Yes Osage County was a great performance, but BATB was hardly "amateur." The vocals were precise and the level of talent, not only from the leads but from the supportive cast was astounding (babette, wardrobe, lefu etc). That show is iconic and to attempt it is risky at best. The costumes were astounding especially when you consider the fact that they were made primarily by students. It was the only show last year I wanted to see twice. It was on par with most professional theater. The top comment from the "member of that intrepid cast" its distasteful at best. If you have a problem with this list perhaps you should question some of the other choices, not attack a show purely because it was performed by a college......don't be THAT actor, your audience doesn't appreciate it.
Totally agree with the Beauty & the Beast vs. Osage County review. Osage County was really well done, and Beauty & the Beast was rather flat in the acting category, though it was beautiful, (except for Belle's "yellow-peep's have exploded" dress.)
I am thrilled to see an SRJC on the list, but would argue that "Our Town" was significantly more compelling than "Beauty and the Beast". Technically smart and impeccably directed, there were outstanding performances throughout the cast, not only from George Gibbs and Emily Webb. The real connections I observed onstage, combined with genuine emotion, oozed charm and brought the old themes to life in our modern times.
Really? An amateur production of Beauty and Beast makes the grade but not the 6th Street Playhouse staging of August-Osage County? I may be biased, having been a member of that intrepid cast but I'm of the opinion our production easily deserves the top spot on that list.
JaJerz, Thanks for your insight. The piece was never meant to disrespect Snoop as a talented rapper. He is an icon of West Coast music and known all over the world as a representative of the hip hop/rap era. Anyone would give him mad props for all his accomplishments.
The piece is actually a reflection on his questionable behavior over the past year. When Snoop went to Jamaica to record an album with Diplo, the Philadelphia-based EDM DJ, he was seen by many in the media and entertainment world as going through a mid-life identity crisis; his past few albums not cutting the commercial profit margin and his image strained by dippy reality TV shows.
Most, however, tried to view the image change as a conscience decision to transform his flamboyantly excessive, drug- and gun-toting lifestyle into a more spiritually enlightened leadership position in the music world; to bring attention to the sacred path of Rastafari while acting as a role model for commercially and materialistically seduced young hip hop artists. Throughout the past year, though, Snoop has done everything to solicit attention and nothing to demonstrate awareness.
Artists are free to change their image and we as fans continue to be fascinated by their choices. But to take such a major leap, professing allegiance to a religious practice with such brevity and arrogance, I believe there should be a higher level of respect shown for those who came before. Putting out pop ragga songs and donning red, gold and green does not qualify you as a Rasta. Neither does shouting Jah Rastafari on stage with a blunt in your hand.
All doubt and criticism aside, Snoop has ample time to prove his weight in gold. Whether that gold is measured in coinage or in enlightenment has yet to be seen.

South Ham man slapped partner while holding a pair of scissors
8:10pm Sunday 30th September 2012 in News By Chris Gregory
A MAN slapped his partner while holding a pair of scissors, a court heard.
Raimondas Limoninas, of Western Way, South Ham, appeared at North Hampshire Magistrates' court in Winchester for sentence having pleaded guilty to an assault by beating against Neringa Kuodyte.
The court heard the attack took place at Miss Kuodyte's house in Ballard Close, South Ham, on August 4 this year, after Limoninas had been drinking.
Dan O'Neill, prosecuting, said: "He does assault her downstairs and in the process has caused her a slight cut to her neck because he was holding a pair of scissors at the time.
"Miss Kuodyte said she pushed him away and it was then he tried to kick her.
"She then describes struggling with him and he then dropped the scissors."
He added the assault was a slap rather than a punch, and that Limoninas had been trying to get some car keys from his partner's handbag.
The court heard that the victim's 10-year-old daughter was upstairs at the time of the attack and pleaded to one of the victim's friends, who was staying for the night, to call the police.
Limoninas, who is from Lithuania, defended himself in court and spoke to the magistrates through an interpreter.
He said: "I would like to say that I'm very sorry for my behaviour.
"I would appreciate it if you could give me a lighter sentence, and I'm very sorry."
Presiding magistrate Brenda Thompson sentenced Limoninas to a 12-month community order with 120 hours unpaid work and £85 costs.

Fred here I thought you to be an Obama fan.
Fred is the broken bridge another political comment or am I reading more into it than is there??
Fred your winged helments remind me of Mercury my fav of the greek gods.
Sarha I have a few quick sketches of my chickens. I had a reel pretty Buff Orpington Rooster that I named Gamboge. One day when I called them to eat he came running and fell dead at my feet. He must of had a heart attack or stoke because he was acting fine a couple of seconds before. I miss him I was hoping to get some chicks from him come spring.
Hello Geri...sorry to hear about your rooster...never count your chickens until they are hatched!!!
This is the watercolour my chickens became part of.
Very nice Sara I love the rustic setting .I'm surprised it doesn't have a thatched roof. The scene cold be right here in the states with the log cabin and the Rhode Island Red ( an American breed ) out front. Is there many homes that are log construction in your neck of the woods?

Pollinators are in peril, and the future of your blueberries, squash, cucumbers, tree fruits and watermelons is at stake!!
Did that get your attention? Sadly, it's true. Perhaps the diminutive size of our insect friends has allowed their tragedy to unfold unnoticed before us, but the threats are very real. They include colony collapse disorder, Varroa mite, reduced genetic diversity, and repeated exposure to minute doses of systemic pesticides. Few but beekeepers, farmers, and entomologists are fully aware of the dramatic decline in honeybee populations in recent years.
Researchers and beekeepers are in a race against time to solve problems facing honeybees before their populations become so small that they are no longer effective pollinators of the many crops that depend upon them for fruit set. There are various mechanisms of pollination, including wind and dependence on other groups of insects. But many of our favorite produce crops depend on bees. Why should you care? To put it simply, no bees equals no pollination equals no produce. A less drastic, but fully plausible equation might be, very few bees equals greatly reduced pollination equals very expensive produce.
If neither of these equations sounds very attractive, you might be wondering how we got into such a predicament, and what can be done about it. Like many problematic situations we encounter in society, it took a long time for the problem to develop and become understood, and will take much additional time to remedy.
As is also true of many current world issues, the most realistic solutions lie in many people taking small steps to remedy the situation. Things you can do include creating places that are friendly to honeybees and other pollinators. Plant herbs, nectar producing flowers, or y plants in the daisy family. Nectar producing flowers usually have a long tube as part of the flower structure, like honeysuckle or butterfly bush. Sunflowers and other daisy-like flowers produce pollen that is a valuable food source for many insects.
Use pesticides only when truly needed, exactly as directed, and spray early or late in the day when bees are less active. Plant the widest variety of plants reasonably possible – diversity in planting provides a wider array of food sources at differing times of the year.
Long-term solutions are more complicated. Honeybees were introduced to America by our immigrant forefathers, and our agricultural system has developed along with the practice of beekeeping. Because of a lengthy dependence on one species, the honeybee, we know comparatively little about the effectiveness of bumblebees, squash bees, and other native wasp and bee pollinators. Researchers are scrambling to better understand these bees as honeybee populations continue to decline.
For a greater understanding of the pollinator crisis and what we know about it, I highly recommend the book Fruitless Fall by Rowan Jacobsen. While based on a great deal of scientific information, the conversational writing style and the way Jacobsen weaves together the many threads of the honeybee story make it as compelling a read as any novel. Perhaps after reading it, you will even become inspired, as I was, to learn more about beekeeping. In eastern North Carolina, local extension service offices have information about local beekeeping courses and groups. Even if you are not inspired to keep bees, as many of your fruit and vegetable producers do, I hope you'll enjoy a much greater appreciation of the next pollinator that passes you by.

Ed Koch, sage of the city, calls New Yorkers to kick the bums out

At the age of 85, Ed Koch is leading a state-wide campaign to "kick the bums" out and make our government work right. The New York Times tribute to him is well-worth the read and listen.
He's leading a group called New York Uprising. They focus on huge problems, and just three. They get attention by targeting politicians that resist reform. We forget politicians are supposed to fear the ire of a misled people. Ed Koch is reminding us.
Three reforms that would make New York state governance less corrupt and more fair:
1 - end gerrymandering where politicians draw election maps to "look like salamanders;" base them on the Census; and don't let the politicians have power over that
2 - establish an ethics board to make transparent the income received and clients serviced by representative politicians outside of the legislature
3- require an honest budget, end the gimmicks, and follow accountants' standards
The man that never sleeps.

Don't let Ed Koch hear you say that Ireland should get the same $3 billion annual subsidy from the United States that Israel gets. He'd quickly denounce you as an anti-Semite and demand you apologize. What would Brian Cowen do with money like that? Maybe he'd whip up a stimulus package so enticing to young Irish people that they'd stay at home instead of coming here. But it won't happen. The Jews are special. The Irish aren't.

Jewish Americans talk about Israel the way some Irish Americans used to talk about the IRA back in the 1980s. It's emotional and you just want to be loyal to your country and your people. He felt cheated by the Dinkins upset, and he resisted Giuliani in the beginning. His later years were out of office. He did a lot of the corporate deals that Disneyified Times Square. He was graffitis greatest enemy. Still, I stand by my feeling for him. He's a Great New Yorker, and NY Uprising is a good idea.

Ed Koch has been a right winger for a number of years, routinely endorsing Republicans like Giuliani, Pataki, D'Amato and Bush. He also enthusiastically supported the Iraq War. More recently, he applauded the Israeli seizure of the flotilla bringing aid to the Palestinians and the murder of the passengers. Koch is very quick to denounce Israel's critics as anti-Semites, including critics of the barbaric assault on Gaza early in 2009. Koch is a figure out of the 1980's - he was a colorful guy back then, always full of himself. Today he's more cranky than colorful, and this New York Uprising sounds like a way of drawing attention to himself.

It really is sad and too bad we don't have more politicians like Ed Koch! Both parties have developed chronic calcification in moral certitude and statesmanship; only concerned about being reelected and enjoying the spoils of office! I hope the good Lord gives Ed at least 10 more years, as I'm sure it will take that and more to change things around! HANG IN THERE. ED, THE PEOPLE ARE WITH YOU!

Ed Koch has never been one to shy away from his opinion. And though he's a Democrat himself, I do also think he's picked up on the massive trouble the ruling party in Congress (and in general) is facing this election year, and it's emboldened him all the more (much to his credit). For crying out loud, Congress has only an 11% approval rating, according to Gallup.

With all the new tech out now, and with more to come this year, it's an exciting time for powerful builds. What are your dream PC specs.
Ill be honest I pretty much have my dream build. Maybe another 670 but other than that I have mine. I'm a simple man. lol
Easy. Any computer by the murderbox guys. http://www.murderbox.com/galleries/ This build from them always blew my mind whenever I look at the pics. It's so clean and crisp, it looks fake sometimes. http://www.murderbox.com/mkii_prototype/gallery/
It's not more interesting than it has been. Go back to 2000 and people were just as excited as people are now. Or any other year. All in all I think these questions are sort of pointless.
A car that drives me to work while I game in the car. And it must have an inertia dampener so I don't get disturbed during acceleration or taking turns.
One that turns into a bucket of fried chicken, beer and a over developed Goth stripper and prints money when I'm done playing Battlefield 4.
Maybe pointless to you but to me it's not. I thought last year was a bit dull. But this year with the new Intel Xeons and duel CPU boards and Nividia's Titan which I hope will give AMD a nudge. Also there is a lot of fast ram out now prices are coming down a bit.
Also I want to see what people think is the best kit out there. 2 years ago I had my dream build but now it needs an upgrade. A 6970, I7 2700k, Rog board and a couple of good SSD's just isn't exactly a dream machine any more. Glad to see some people are happy with theirs. I was hoping to see a list of great gear.
Complete over kill, but this is it, will have about $1 in WC gear also. And of course the case will be a Case Labs SM8
+1 I have a Phenom II X6 1100T, DFI LanParty 790FXB-M3H5 and a HD 5870. I wish it was an 890FX board and a 7970 all on water, but other than that, I'm pretty happy with what I have. Not that I would turn down a quad-socket, Opteron 6380 powered, water cooled, 7990-loaded workstation.
One that will always transform to latest catting edge / bleeding edge technology be for the technology even gets released....
Somebody please fix the title. And like TacoTown says in his sig: "A computer is never done, you're just out of money."
massive villa, pool house, few acres, glass front, electric gates.....ah shit we're talking pc's not houses
I don't know yet, I haven't read the reviews yet. I don't even know how much it costs. If it is stupidly priced then I hope it's stupidly good, I won't buy it if the price leap doesn't come close to the performance leap. I'm quite interested in the 7970ghz edition.

Anyone into soaring? The bug has bitten me lately. I took a 15 min ride about 10 years agoin a sailplane in Santa Ynez, and it was so exhilarating. I've also found a new interest in paragliding, which, while not a 3-axis controlled aircraft, is still a great platform for free flying and soaring.
Anybody else here similarly afflicted?

FBI Director Robert Mueller said an investigation has been launched into the leak of the al-Qaida plot to set off a bomb aboard a plane bound for the U.S.,but foiled by a double-agent. The Obama administration has been agressively pursuing leaks, bringing at least six criminal cases against those who discussed secrets with reporters.

FBI Director Robert Muller (center) testifies before the Senate Judiciary Committee's hearing on oversight of the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, May 16. Muller responded to questions on the renewal of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act and the accuracy of FBI forensic analysis of hair and fiber evidence that has recently been called into question.

Oh, brother...
Who cares????????????
Who cares?Inaugaration = opportunity to spend taxpayer money = large number of sycophants = big party = messianal adorationSounds pretty much like most other nights at the White House
Wow, the reachout to the LIVs is really taking off, isn´t it?
Hmmmmm, let´s see...never heard of her, sucks, Far East WHAT?, whatever, Glee=Gay, never heard of him, sucks times 10, never heard of him either, "Mindless Behavior" is PERFECT, never heard of him, Smokey Robinson USED to be good, never heard of them, Stevie Wonder, your time is past, and finally, heard of Usher and he SUCKS.Looks like a "Must NOT see" teevee craptacular in the making.
Never heard of most of them and don´t care. This President has no taste, no class, no dignity. The only one I care about is Smokey Robinson. I heard he was having some financial trouble. I hope he´s okay.
I don´t watch Glee - is this the same Smokey Robinson that was with the Miracles back in the Dark Ages?He´s older than I am.
Not one on that list would I ever support in any way, shape or form. Trash, every one.
Seamstresses are working overtime on Moochie´s 10 yards of fabric.
Take names.......and kick a**!
I read the headline and thought "I didn´t know Katy Perry and Smokey Robinson were Glee Cast Members". Personally I wouldn´t walk across the street to see this jerk and those that kiss his butt.
Using big name stars is a ploy to sell inauguration tickets.
Smokey Robinson? I thought he was better than this. Oh boy.
Who´s opening the show? Gallagher?
Brad Paisley ??? Really ???
May anyone fool enough to serenade the Indonesian criminal usurper be infested with the fleas of a thousand camels.
I am also disappointed with Smokey Robinson. I thought he was a committed Christian! He needs to stand up for what he believes!God is not mocked: what you sow, you reap! If Smokey "chooses" to stand with Obama, he does not honor Almighty God, Jesus Christ, supposedly His Lord/Savior.Pray for America!Many have fallen, due to political correctness and the desire to be wanted, instead of being honorable in God´s sight.
What happened to having members of the Army Chorus or the soloist from the Marine Band sing for the inaugurations of presidents? At least you had someone who could sing the National Anthem or anther great patriotic songs rather than someone from the pop culture side of the aisle. I won´t be watching....let me know if it´s any good, please.
How much will this cost us?
Cost us????WTH!!!!!! we are gonna pay them???they don´t contribute their talent gratis?? Surely they must!!!
Little or nothing here worth listening to, including and especially the speech by Zero.
All they need to complete this class act is a stripper and a pole dancer.Oh that´s right. Beyonce.
Looks like Mooch & the girls picked the entertainment. Have they started up their Wed. party nite at the WH again? Obama´s mid week excuse to drink $10k a bottle wine.
Isn´t this just special?

Treasury 10-year notes fell for the first time in three days as a U.S. sale of $32 billion of three- year debt drew lower-than-average demand while investors awaited the outcome of the presidential election.
Longer maturities led the decline as U.S. voters head to the polls to decide whether President Barack Obama or challenger Mitt Romney will face the job of avoiding the so-called fiscal cliff of $607 billion in spending cuts and tax increases scheduled to take effect in January. The yield at the note sale, the first of three auctions this week totaling $72 billion, exceeded dealers' forecasts.
"There is a great deal of uncertainty associated with the election, and more importantly, the ramifications for the fiscal cliff," said Ian Lyngen, a government-bond strategist at CRT Capital Group LLC in Stamford, Connecticut. "The auction was pretty average."
The benchmark 10-year yield climbed five basis points, or 0.05 percentage point, to 1.70 percent at 2:58 p.m. New York time, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. The 1.625 percent note due in August 2022 fell 15/32, or $4.69 per $1,000 face amount, to 98 31/32.
The yield on the current three-year note rose two basis points to 0.395 percent.
Bid Detail
The three-year notes yielded 0.392 percent at the auction, compared with a forecast of 0.383 percent in a Bloomberg News survey of nine of the Fed's 21 primary dealers. The bid-to-cover ratio, which gauges demand by comparing total bids with the amount of securities offered, was 3.41, the least since April and compared with an average of 3.59 for the past 10 sales.
Indirect bidders, an investor class that includes foreign central banks, purchased 25.1 percent of the notes, the lowest since May 2007 and compared with an average of 32.9 percent for the past 10 sales.
Direct bidders, non-primary-dealer investors that place their bids directly with the Treasury, purchased 22.3 percent of the notes at the sale, the second most since January, 2010, compared with an average of 10.8 percent for the past 10 auctions.
Three-year notes have returned 0.4 percent this year, compared with a 2.1 percent return for Treasuries overall, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes.
The auction was "very average," Brett Rose, an interest- rate strategist at Citigroup Inc. in New York wrote in a note to clients.
The Treasury is due to auction $24 billion of 10-year securities tomorrow and $16 billion of 30-year debt on Nov. 8. The sales will raise $8.9 billion of new cash as maturing securities held by the public total $63.1 billion, according to the Treasury.
Investors in Treasuries were the most neutral in more than two months as they cut bullish positions ahead of the closely contested U.S. presidential election, according to a survey by JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Investors raised neutral bets to 70 percent from 68 percent, pushing it to the highest level since Aug. 27, the survey reported.
The Fed-preferred measure of inflation expectations, the five-year, five-year forward break-even rate reached 2.88 percent Nov. 1, the highest since August 2011. The gauge projects the expected pace of consumer price increases during the five-year period beginning 2017.
The 10-year yield will be 1.73 percent at Dec. 31 and rise to 2.03 percent by the end of June, according to a Bloomberg survey of banks and securities companies with the most recent projections given the heaviest weightings.
Tight Race
Obama led Romney 48 percent to 45 percent in an Oct. 31- Nov. 3 national poll conducted by the Pew Research Center, a survey that showed the candidates tied at 47 percent a week ago. The final tracking poll by ABC News and the Washington Post had Obama taking a lead of 50 percent to 47 percent in a survey of 2,345 likely voters conducted Nov. 1-4.
Ten-year Treasury yields will rise to two percent if Romney wins versus a decline to 1.5 percent if Obama wins, according to Barclays Plc, a primary dealer.
Treasuries have returned 15 percent since Obama took office on Jan. 20, 2009, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index handed investors a 91 percent gain including reinvested dividends, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"If Obama wins, the initial reaction might still be some modest buying of fixed income, on the view that the Fed will be encouraged to proceed" with its bond-buying program, Steven Englander, head of Group of 10 currency strategy at Citigroup Inc. in New York, wrote in an e-mailed note. A Romney victory would result in a "broad sell-off" of fixed income, he said.
Debt Levels
Even as Obama increased the U.S. publicly traded debt to a record $10.8 trillion as of August, investors have been willing to accept lower interest rates as the central bank buys bonds as a way to sustain the expansion and as inflation holds in check.
After purchasing $2.3 trillion of Treasuries and mortgage- related bonds, the Fed on Oct. 24 reiterated its plan to continue unprecedented stimulus measures by buying $40 billion of home-loan securities a month until the labor market improves "substantially."
The Fed is swapping shorter-term Treasuries in its holdings with those due in six to 30 years as part of its efforts to support the U.S. economy by putting downward pressure on long- term borrowing costs.
The U.S. central bank bought $4.85 billion of Treasuries maturing from November 2018 to August 2020 today, according to the Fed Bank of New York's website.

Why are you posting cities in name and movie forums?
The good news is GM, with complete production capacity freedom, and UAW concessions, is fiscally sound now. Those negotiations have paid off. Without the bankruptcy GM would still be profitable, but would still have a huge amount of debt, that was washed by Obama(bondholders). Investment grade is coming soon, and then a return to dividends for common stock holders. I still have about $37,000 in GM from post IPO purchases, but most of my investments are now in high yeald REITS, which I have slowly been liquidating, and enregy sector funds. Early etirement so far has been good to me, and I have even bypassed Obamacare, moving to Samaritan Ministries for my health care needs. Take care Geminijax.
I see you brought my name up again. And again you are inaccurate in your premise. Yes I felt GM was a value play all the way up to the 2008 financial collapse. I saw the end of the tunnel for GM being January 2010, when profitability would finally be achieved, through contracts negotiated in 2005 and 2007. It took many bold and timely sales and buys over a short period to assure that I made a good amount of profit on a sour deal. Also, I have always proposed that the U.S. government just keep spoon feeding GM through 2009 so GM would own the debt. GM was never broke, and even refused a federal scheduled payment to them in 2009 because they didn't need it. All the spoon feeding was doing was keeping GM's liquidity at a level that it needed to be. I agree with your assessment that the political bankruptcy forced by OBAMA was a very bad move, for much more than just the reward to the UAW. I believe GM should begin a schedule of repayment, even though they are not obligated. The
First, how about grant me FULL ACCESS?. Do you know where to change the access? I do. Hey buddy, let me give you A BIG CONGRATS on your 90 Cons Days and your soon to be there racing stripes!! Keep up the good work. Your Buddy, David..........QQ
Ha! Love your comment on the White House Solar Panel thread. You rock.
A BIG CONGRATS on reaching that 2.75M mark and your nice new race car! Wow! Truly awesome! Keep going another million or more! Most GBs will never make it to 1M, and many retired at 2M and 3M, but you have made it to 2.75M! You're one of only 1008 of more than 8,000,000 GBs that have accumulated at least 2,750,000 points! Many of the GBs ahead of you have already retired, only 606 GBs have continued and made it to 3M! Doesn't look like Pat is going to give up the #1 spot anytime soon, even after a near fatal motorcycle accident in April 2012! So keep going! You're doing great! Keep going like a PRO Jacksonville GasBuddy leading the way for others to follow! Have a nice week! Thanks buddy! Ron
Congrats on the new car!
A belated congratulations on the new racer and the retiring of the big rig!
Another DF thread bites the dust! The mods even think GM hybrids are a total disaster! LOL Hope your holiday goes well!
I'm not miffed that you do not agree with an investment in GM. You always seem to put words in my mouth. It just bs me when peeople post for the purpose to denegrate me, that's all. Plus, as you may recall, I ended up pretty golden, timing some rapid purchases and sales within some wild ranges during GM's turmoil. Geminijax, GM is only 4% of my investment portfolio. I own it because I am a GM enthusiast ever since their Renaissance was evident back in 2001. Now we see GM for the first time ever topping J'D. Power. I do believe GM will perform well consistent to the market, with a couple of things that will boost it. Investment grade rating and return to dividends. But, obviously it is good to diversify, and really, I am 40% cash or other short term liquidity. I hope you are doing well,in spite of your hatred of me. But, remember, always, that you started the verbal war, and have never apologized. Thanks for listening.

A Lebanese militant wanted by the United States in connection with the killing of five American soldiers in Iraq was released because of lack of evidence, Iraq's prime minister said Saturday.
Smoke billowed over the ancient stone walls of Diyarbakir, as residents of this predominantly Kurdish city staged a citywide strike. Police armored vehicles patrolled streets strewn with garbage and burning tires left by Kurdish children, who threatened to hurl rocks at passing cars.
A new coalition of Syrian dissidents opposed to President Bashar al-Assad will have an ambassador in France, the French president said Saturday.
A bus slammed through a barrier at a railroad crossing and crashed into a train leaving 47 school children dead in Egypt Saturday, the country's state-run Middle East News Agency reported.

Tomas Berdych has hovered around the edge of the "big four" of men's tennis for the past three years, but on Sunday he will take center stage in what could be a historic moment for his country.
Rory McIlroy may have already wrapped up the money list title, but two veteran golfers have much to play for on the final day of the European Tour's penultimate event in Hong Kong.
Andy Stanley walked into his pastor's office, filled with dread. The minister sat in a massive chair behind an enormous desk. He spread his arms across the desk as if he were bracing for battle. His secretary scurried out of the office when she saw Andy coming. The pastor had baptized Andy when he was 6, and groomed him to be his successor. But a private trauma had gone public. And Andy felt compelled to speak. The minister stared in silence as Andy gave him the news. The "unspoken dream" both men shared was over. After Andy finished, the pastor looked at him as tears welled up. "Andy," he said, "you have joined my enemies, and I'm your father."
No amount of money can make up for the loss of a loved one. But it does more for the survivors than just kind words, said the attorney handling compensation to victims after the Aurora, Colorado massacre.

Starting on 8/14/12, FAT+ will no longer login to my Youtube accounts. After entering the password, it just hangs and never actually logs in. I tested several Youtube accounts and the same thing happened. I'm thinking that Youtube finally changed something major enough where logging into accounts no longer works in FAT+. I can still search Youtube and stream videos fine, I just can't login to access my favorites and other account elements. Is this happening to anyone else?
Hi, I have exactly the same problem Try now a firmware upgrade...
See you later
George from Germany
I've already been using the most recent firmware update (2.23). I wonder if Seagate will offer a new firmware update to include a fix for this Youtube issue. Does anyone know if Seagate is going to continue to support the FAT+?
vegenergy wrote:Does anyone know if Seagate is going to continue to support the FAT+?
If it wasn't for the user-community this thing would have very little knowledgeable support. Don't count on Seagate to post a fix for this in the near future. You should submit a support ticket as the agents on this forum have no direct communications with product support.
Thanks prairiedog. I submitted a support ticket, and their only suggestion was to do a cold reinstall of the firmware, but they did not know if Youtube had changed anything regarding their login process that would affect the FAT+. When I replied on Tuesday to let them know that the cold firmware reinstall had no effect on this problem, I never heard back from them.
Ah well, with all its quirks and bugs, there's still a lot that I like about my FAT+, but I will need to find a media player that I can access my Youtube account with. I've heard some good things about the WD TV Live Media Player, and the price is definitely right.
08-26-2012 09:55 PM - edited 08-26-2012 10:03 PM
I agree. I only use the FAT+ to stream video (mostly mkv) from my NAS. It's rock freaking solid for that.
In our household, we use a Roku to do video streaming of Hulu+, Amazon, Youtube, etc. I also have a WDTV Live plus which is pretty similar to the FAT+ - nicer interface too. Seems the FAT+ could be a really awesome device if they just spent a little more developmental time with it to improve the interface. I don't think there's any dedicated engineers working on it with any regularity... such as keeping up with content provider site changes, or adding Hulu, Amason, etc. Just being a "current" device would give Seagate a huge advantage over WD.
THe new Vizio Co-Star looks to be a very promising device. (link)
Indeed, the Vizio Costar seems to be a great device for the cost :-) Costar is even more versatile than Apple TV. It's just a little bit harder than other media players to integrate into Home Theater because the remote is Bluetooth (i.e. one would need a IR to BT converter). It would be a perfect bedroom media player / web surfer, right out of the box. It's currently sold out :-)
Thanks for the info. I didn't know about the bluetooth. Kinda sucks as it won't work with my Harmony remotes.
I almost hope one of my 4 media players craps out just so I can pick up the Vizio. I honestly haven't looked into it really deeply - I assume it'll connect to a share, though if not it's just another Roku.
08-28-2012 07:55 PM - edited 08-28-2012 07:55 PM
Yeah, if you add the cost of the IR-BT converter, it would be twice the cost to get a FAT+/GoFlexTV :-) However, there is another Google TV device that is even better: the Pivos XIOS This has IR remote and run Android XBMC with HW accelerator. I would get this instead of the Vizio.
Note that these Android TV devices are really a class above the FAT+/GoFlex TV, so they cost twice as much. Hope the moderators don't mind we talk about them here :-)
Is this better then SainSmart SS808?

II. THE ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING SYSTEM IN SHANGHAI[ II-A | II-B | II-C | II-D | II-E | II-F ] F. Legislation and enforcement of statutesEnvironmental laws provide the legal basis for monitoring and protection. Under the national framework of such laws and regulations, the Municipal Government of Shanghai develops a local architecture of environmental regulations, with regard to the state of its economic development and the character of its natural environment (table 3). In 1995, three local regulations were issued, namely Measures for Pollution Prevention and Control of Hazardous Wastes of Shanghai, Tentative Provisions for Pollution Prevention and Control of Livestock of Shanghai, and Provisions for Installation and Use of Air Conditioners in Shanghai. Revisions were made to the Bylaw of Regulation on Water Source Protection of the Upper Reaches of the Huangpu River. As regards the increasing noise in urban areas, two announcements were additionally issued: an announcement on Rigid Restriction on Building Construction Work at Night as Measure for Prevention and Control of Ambient Noise Pollution, and an announcement on Tightening up Environmental Management in Catering, Environment and Other Service Trades. In battling against the problem of automobile exhaust fumes which is becoming a significant factor in urban air pollution, SEPB and the Shanghai Public Security Bureau jointly issued in August, 1996 the Announcement of Coercive Measures for Installing Exhaust Gas Purifying Device on Vehicles, and Measures for Collecting Pollution Discharge Fee from Automobiles of Shanghai in December, 1996. Table 3. The architecture of environmental regulations in Shanghai
With the legal backing of various environmental laws and regulations, Shanghai has been able to strengthen their enforcement. Two unscheduled general city checks and 991 spot checks were conducted in 1994, as a result of which the Huilong Chemicals Factory in Jiading was severely punished for its violation of laws by secretly discharging waste water, and the Xinhong Dyeing Company, which had discharged a huge extra volume of waste water, was ordered to stop production. In 1995, five unscheduled checks were organized city-wide and 771 penalties were handed out, with total fines reaching Y 2,350,000. Public involvement has proved to be effective in assisting in the enforcement of environmental laws. SEPB utilizes the mass media, education courses in secondary schools, and on-street counselling to enhance public awareness of environmental protection, and to invite public participation in the enforcement of the environmental laws. In 1995, letters from citizens complaining about environmental problems and abuses increased by 35 per cent compared to 1994, indicating that stronger public involvement and interest has been achieved. As regards any disputes in the enforcement of environmental laws, the two sides involved have the right to submit evidence or justification for a re-examination of the case to a higher administrative department in the environmental protection agencies. In case of failure, the court shall give its final judgment. Top |

The second annual Fouche Gap Road Race was a huge hit. With perfect weather comes large crowds. We had 395 registered racers this year versus 230 last year. I was at the finish line all day, but I was told the feed zone with the neutral water supplied by Go Smarter Coaching was packed. Indeed I looked through some pictures and wow! See for yourself:
Pro teams taking advantage of the neutral water. Those orange Specialized water bottle tops stand out.Results
The 2 mistakes, only in the results posted on GBRA, have been fixed. (2 DQ's that were enforced at the podium did not make it back into the timing system before the results were sent to GBRA.) New results have been posted at RomeVelo.net, GBRA and official results have been uploaded to USA Cycling.
