When I look at my girls, I think that the eight-year age difference between them is speeding my younger daughter's development. Where my oldest waited until she was two to utter her first words, my youngest sang "Happy Birthday" at her second birthday party. It seems my little one is just speeding past her milestones, and I highly suspect her sister's influence has a lot to do with it. Have you experienced this with your kids?

Some unsolicited advice to Barack Obama on Syria
What happens when a majority of voters elect an unqualified hack as the head of state? Lots of bad choices and lots of bad outcomes. After watching Barack Obama make mistakes on the world stage for five years you might have thought he was beginning to figure out what he was doing. Unfortunately, you'd be wrong. He's as clueless as ever… First he suggests (correctly) | Read More »

I have a friend whose niece just had a baby. During delivery, the young lady had stroke. The baby is fine, but the young mother's prognosis is not good.
I know God can heal this young woman. I don't know if she or her husband are believers, but first pray for their salvation if they aren't; then please pray for her healing. God is able. There is nothing too hard for HIM!!!!
I do support this ministry and do so appreciate your prayers and this prayer wall.

I, once again, ask for prayer for my son. He overcame a heroin addiction 4 years ago, and that is a blessing; But now, his life is a mess. He is having some medical problems. He has no insurance, and is also having trouble with his ex-wife. She's not letting him see his boys. He is depressed, and has turned from God. We can't help him financially because we lost almost everything in helping him while he was conquering his addiction. It breaks our hearts to see him so lost and losing hope. Please pray for help for him. We love him so much.
Received: September 24, 2013
I want to hear from God and be obedient to Him. I've gone through a divorce; and I am ashamed about that. I'm afraid God can't use my testimony anymore. I really need His help and help from those around me during this time. I don't know where to turn. I wonder if healing and reconciliation is possible.
Received: September 24, 2013
Please pray that the Lord steps in and restores my marriage. The final hearing date is 10/30 at 2p.m.. Please, please, please beg the Lord to intercede! He is working, but if His blessings depend on my prayers and faith, then I am doomed! I have run out of gas. My tank is dry. I am spent. I am weak and my faith fails me; But if 4 of my brothers in Christ will get down on their knees, rip the roof open and lower me through the roof to Jesus' feet, this marriage can be saved! it was not the faith of the crippled man that made Jesus heal him. It was the faith of his four friends that caused Jesus to act and heal him! Who will bring me to Jesus with the faith that he will heal my marriage when my faith falters? Please be one of those men (or women) that will plead my case before the true judge of the universe. Please help me carry my cross! It's heavy; and for 6 months the weight has bowed me low to the ground. Now, I find I cannot carry it further. I cannot get it to the feet of Jesus alone anymore! For 6 months now, I have fought to show her love and give her hope that I can be the man she needs. We have kids (8, 11 and 15) that I need to be strong for; but I just can't seem to pray it through, will it through or faith it through. I fall and can't get up! Please help me!!!!

Please pray for me and my sons. One is in jail for a probation violation. He wants out and swears he'll change; but I feel led to let him stay there until his court date in a few weeks. My other son is going through an ugly divorce and cannot see his daughters. Hateful and mean and untrue accusations have been made against him by his wife. She is living with another man and has my granddaughters in that situation. It's a mess. I pray that salvation comes to ALL of them through this. I know the Lord allows us to go through these valleys for a reason. It's just so hard to see it when we're in the pit; And it's SO hard to watch your kids hurting. God knows our needs. I pray for every prayer request that's been posted on this wall; But I know our God is FAITHFUL.......PRAISE HIS NAME!!

This is it GOD. I physically and mentally cannot go on like this! My back is to the wall and face to the ground in need of a miracle to get to my job interviews. I have begged my family to help and nothing, not one word. I need a financial miracle to put full tanks of gas in my car to get to these job interviews hours away! I cannot survive homeless living in my car and being unemployed for another month. I will not survive to be exact and honest. This is life saving-Prayer, that I am in for the chances to get to these interviews and get one of these jobs. GOD I do not know how to Pray anymore, that I am Praying or how to beg anyone else for help. I have no one to ask for help but You GOD. Amen.

I definitely need prayer. I have been a single mom for 20 years. My son graduated from high school with honors; but we haven't been able to afford school for him. I have pleaded with God and have been waiting for deliverance; but, I still don't have it. I feel at times i cannot sustain this hardship. He made a promise that I still don't have and I desperately need for Him to help me, like I need and desire. I love Jesus in spite of all of this. Thank you for taking the time for me and my son.

Prayer changes everything. My mother has been difficult and cruel during my growing up. I have placed prayer requests on the Prayer Wall numerous times. I suddenly decided to remember only the good things she has done while growing up. I complement her. I believe she has had a difficult childhood, suffers mental illness and is bitter over her life with my Dad not working due to mental illness. Mom has supported a family of 5 on a small salary. That is why she leaned on me and expected me to step in and help at the age of 12 by helping around the house and working to earn money. I see a Huge change in her. I have been seeing someone and we have had long conversations about being a Christian and faith. He told me how he longed for a family and raising his children with his ex-wife. She lives with another man. It has been 15 years that my friend has been handing over virtually almost all of his money above and beyond child support. He craves a house with love based on God's laws and rules. He said I am not a Christian. I said how can you say that? He said I sin! I said, what sin? He quoted Scripture on his sins, one of which is drinking alcohol. We are learning together and apart. We both agreed our walks to salvation are separate; but we want to be together as we grow and have the relationship God would bless. My children are calling me a lot. Things turn around from the effect of prayer and faith. WFCJ thank you! You uplift me every day! I have so much to learn, Starting with a search for the right church. May God Bless You!

Here I go again: Another interview. This one is on Thursday 09/26/2013 at 11a.m. in Worthington, Ohio. Now, I have to get there. GOD, with no money and no gas in my car, this is time for a miracle. Please. I know if I get to the interview, my interview skills are ready; and Yes Lord, I know I am ready to get on with life and away from homeless and unemployed forever. Prayers would be Sincerely and Greatly Appreciated. This could mean employment at last for me, I Pray, if I get there at all for the chance.

Best Coconut Cream Pie Recipe
- 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 cup shortening
- 1 Eggland's Best Egg, separated
- 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon cold water, divided
- 2 cups sugar
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- Dash salt
- 6 cups 2% milk
- 8 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- 2 cups flaked coconut
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon coconut extract
- 6 tablespoons sugar
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1-1/2 cups water
- 8 egg whites
- Additional flaked coconut
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Combine egg yolk and 1/2 cup cold water; gradually add to crumb mixture, tossing with a fork until a ball forms. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Divide dough in half. Roll out each portion to fit a 9-in. pie plate. Place in plates; trim pastry even with edge. With a small round fluted cutter, cut small circles out of dough scraps. Beat egg white with remaining water; brush over edges of pastry. Arrange dough cutouts around edge.
- Line unpricked pastry shells with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on wire racks.
- For filling, in a large saucepan, combine sugar, flour and salt. Stir in milk until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir for 2 minutes longer. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount of hot filling into egg yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; gently stir in coconut and extracts. Pour filling into pastry shells.
- For meringue, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water in a saucepan until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until clear.
- In a large bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Pour hot sugar mixture in a small stream into egg whites, beating constantly until stiff peaks form.
- Spread evenly over hot filling, sealing edges to crust. Bake at 350° for 12-15 minutes or until the meringue is golden brown. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator. Yield: 2 pies (8 servings each).
Reviews for Best Coconut Cream Pie(17)
Sort By :
As to the reviewer who complained of the meringue tasting like sulphur, perhaps it was the eggs?
I've made this recipe several times now and it never fails to satisfy! Like other reviewers, I substituted some of the milk for a can of coconut milk and omitted the coconut extract. I also did not use the crust recipe, I just used Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust, following the instructions on the box to bake, but if the crust is half as good as the filling and meringue, I am SURE it is fantastic!
The recipe for the filling was wonderful, I did make one change. I used one can of coconut milk and filled up the remaining measuring cup to six cups with milk. The filling was yummy. I was looking for a filling with flour instead of starch since my last couple of pies have had a gelatin like texture once refrigerated. I did not use the pie crust or meringue recipe so I cannot comment on those. Great Taste!
I was excited to make a coconut cream pie and thought the picture looked delicious and was excited to see such positive reviews. luckily i only put the meringue topping on one pie because it tasted terribly like sulfur. i followed the directions exactly so i'm not sure how everyone else seemed to enjoy the pie. on the other one i made a homemade whip cream and it was so much better. also, the tin foil caused some problems as it stuck to my pie crust. not sure why this happened either, but seems no one else had any issues. if you want to make a coconut cream pie, i suggest you go somewhere else. the directions are not very explicit and the pie overall is not that great-i'm sure there are better pies out there i just haven't gotten to making them yet. now to go get the sulfur smell out of my kitchen...=/
So Goood, I did read the review pie wasn't rich enough, so I used whole milk and added 1 extra egg yolk and 2 tablespoons of butter when I added the flavoring. My husband said it was delicious.

These flowerr arrangements are lovely. I am a floral designer and I am impressed by the simplicity and charm of these. It is always a mistake to fight with the ambiance of a space. It is a common mistake. People rent a room and then try to change it into something else. Great job.

Industrial Design: Reconsidering Former-Factory Chic

Recycling space that's just lying fallow makes good sense, but it's easy to forget that this gentrification is part of a larger economic story -- in fact, it's often the epilogue.
Check out The Atlantic Monthly's latest issue for a terrific article on Manhattan's urban landscape, Benjamin Schwarz's "Gentrification and its Discontents". It's mostly a consideration of two newer books, Twenty Minutes in Manhattan by architect Michael Sorkin, and Naked City, by urban sociologist Sharon Zukin, in the light of Jane Jacobs' classic book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities -- but my favorite part is when Schwarz points out that the late, great era of creative foment in lower Manhattan that these authors (and a great many others) lament now that it's been replaced by either hugely expensive housing or international brands, was a product of economic and industrial decline:
He also points out that those former days of industrial productivity, now steeped in sepia nostalgia, weren't exactly halcyon. (Triangle Factory fire, anyone?) For example, The Henry Jones Art Hotel's pleasant atrium, pictured above, was a former jam factory floor. The original ceiling, though, was the height of that lower cross-beam -- in its original incarnation, it was hardly the light and pleasant space it is today.For instance, in railing against the passing of SoHo's exhilarating, creative days-characterized by "the mix of artists, crafts-people, small manufacturers, researchers [!], as well as of commerce oriented to their needs" (a few funky bars for the artists; places like the collectively run restaurant Food)-Sorkin joins in the lamentation for "the rapid decline of the city's industrial economy." He doesn't recognize that the SoHo he yearns for was precisely the product of that rapid industrial decline, which made economically available to artists and their hangers-on all those cool industrial spaces that in more industrially vibrant times would have been used by, well, industry.

More To Geology Than Just Classes
The Geology Club makes this department more like a fellowship than anything else. It's a place where we try to help the program feel more like a place where you see friends than a place where you just go to class.
How can I be a part of the club?
The club is open to anyone at WKU - you do not need to be a geology major in order to be a part of the fun. You can stop by any of the monthly meetings (usually posted on flyers in EST) or contact one of the officers to find out more information.

Pittsford Wegmans evacuated Thursday night
Posted at: 02/15/2013 7:44 AM
For the second time in less than a week, the Pittsford Wegmans had to be evacuated.
Customers were asked to leave the store around 10:30 p.m. Thursday, after a smoke detector went off.
Wegmans says Thursday night's evacuation was caused by smoke from a heating fan.

In case you don't already have one of these
In case you don't already have one of these
I read about that. Someone on another board, I think, said that Diana chose the track list herself.
Any idea what that track listing would be and if anything new will be on it ?
All I care about is the sound quality. If that isn't there, I have no interest.
Is this a Motown/Universal release? One or two CDs? Has the cover art appeared anywhere online yet?
It appears to be a 2 CD release from UMTV in the UK. Hopefully it will have a new studio track or two from Diana.

I really hate how Motown, or Hip-O mixes up a Motown solo artist's hits with the group they were once associated with. They do the same thing to Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, and Smokey Robinson, and now Diana Ross. I hate it!
This is worth having.
Big Bad Love, I've Got a Crush On You, and the songs all together without me having to make such a CD.
I realize it's mostly a rehash but new material from Motown stars is becoming more and more rare.
i cant imagine.why has this got to come out again,and again?and what does diana's picked the track listing mean?surely a greatest hits picks itself.not a hit, not on cd. diana picked it,just like she discovered the jackson five and presented them.
another thing,even if i wanted it, the tracks arent in order... 60's mixed in with 80's and 70's.why have the supremes been included?talking of which,suprise ,suprise,baby love is included.another reason to ignore it.imo of course.
its a release for releasing's sake.
Last edited by tamla617; 10-09-2011 at 04:37 PM.
The Supremes songs were included to make it appear that SHE had more hits. They really shouldn't be there if the package is going to be called a "Diana Ross Greatest Hits" CD. It seems like they release a greatest hits on her every other year and the it's the same old songs....... Maybe it's for the picture? It's very nice,b ut it is also very old.
Obviously this is a cash in just to get something selling on Ross. As far as Supremes material being included, why not? It's part of her body of work.
what about all the other drats cd's?
Assuming that there's still a decent market for CD sales in 'bricks and mortar' stores....
..did I read somewhere that supermarkets are only really interested in stocking/promoting new or fairly recent releases?
If that's true, and older titles still in print do not indeed fit into their marketing policy, then a release of greatest hits would perhaps effectively keep Diana Ross in the public eye for the lucrative Christmas sales period...??
By "supermarkets," I think you mean "super stores." These are the Wal-Marts, Targets, Best Buy, and so on, here in the U.S.
Yes, that has been true for some time. They don't even stock top 40 anymore; just top 10 maybe. All the chain "record" stores here in the U.S. have closed, at least here in the West. Perhaps there are still some back East; I don't know. But Tower, Wherehouse, Virgin, etc., those are all gone.
Los Angeles still has some independent sellers. Amoeba being the major example. Hopefully, it will do well for a long, long time.
Yes, I guess 'super stores' is a better overall term, especially in relation to US.
Here in the UK, there are still supermarkets in town centres, offering a small selection of CDs.
The larger edge of town outlets are generally designated as 'super stores' ...with most selling food.
Yes, hopefully some of the small independents can and will indeed survive.
I live in a UK south coast town and, in the suburb where I work, I note that a small shop selling tobacco and smokers requisites,but mainly specialising in pipes, is still in business.
Can't remember the last time I saw someone smoking a pipe. Must be the internet keeps it going....
This is obviously a UK compilation.
The Supremes songs could have all easily been replaced with these solo songs:
WHEN YOU TELL ME THAT YOU LOVE ME (With Westlife)
In fact, she charted more hits as a solo artist in the UK, then when she was with the Surpemes! Go figure!
Diana was in on this all right...........I'm Gonna Make You Love Me with the Temptations, Supremes and Four Tops; mention the Supremes on The Happening and You Can't Hurry Love but not on Where Did Our Love Go?, Stop in the Name Of Love, Reflections, Come See About Me, etc. Oh Right, they aren't on some of those songs anyways and she recorded them alone and didn't know who Motown stuck behind her.
So, right, she picked these and forgot all of who sang with her.
For the record (no pun intended) and for accuracy, Mary Wilson and Florence Ballard are singing on "Where Did Our Love Go?", "Stop in the Name Of Love", "Reflections", "Come See About Me". She knew who she was singing with on these songs because they were all there together.
Jobeterob mentioned that "I've got a crush on you" with Rod Stewart and "Big Bad Love" (with Ray Charles) were on there. That makes this one different because this is the first time they are available on a Diana Ross set. Who knows, maybe in the coming months, Diana will tour over there and this is why they are releasing it. What I don't like is the order of the songs. No rhyme or reason.
There is a Facebook page asking for Diana to tour Europe next year; maybe there will be a European Tour and this is part of the cash in.
Methinks that the UK Christmas market is the only reason for this release!
Makes sense too; it is hardly worth putting out a CD anymore unless it's Christmas, there's a tour or you are Adele or Taylor Swift.
I would love another Christmas CD from Diana Ross. I'd love to hear her version of My Grown-Up Christmas List.
I guess I missed that part. Still, the track list looks like it was tailored for the American market and patterned after the American charts. In fact, in general, many comps created in the U.K. are meant for U.S. audiences because they know that's who wants them. After all, the U.S. domestic labels don't do the job.
The fact that this compilation includes "I'm Still Waiting", "Chain Reaction", "When You Tell Me That You Love Me", "Not Over You Yet" and "Stop, Look, Listen" indicated to me that this was a compilation tailored to the UK. Those songs were not hits in the U.S. "What A Wonderful World" was also recorded live in London.
I suppose these days, the product may come out of one market but it sells online all over the world.
This collection is a bit strange because it includes some fairly rare work and is all encompassing ~ but at the same time, the track list omits some names and includes others in error.
And Greatest Hits Collections just continue to sell year after year after year.
Well, true........
If you only have a couple of hits, you can label it as such, but it will hardly be noticed.
This is a nice line-up of songs, although nothing that I don't already have. But they could have been more imaginative with the artwork. This photo has already been used on two recent compilations.
I have seen two or three TV ads for this already - Universal UK must have decided to push it for the festive market
They have even created an official website for it:
Lookin more like a cashin for a tour.
UK TV promotion for new DR greatest hits CD .

i would have preferred if it had more solo tracks and no supremes tracks .there seem to be missing a few solo hits such as ALL OF YOU/REACH OUT ILL BE THERE/THOUGHT IT TOOK TIME TO FALL IN LOVE /ONE LOVE IN MY LIFETIME/GETTIN READY FOR LOVE
Ross greatest hits packages ALWAYS sell well in the U.K. If projects like this bring in the bucks - or should I say brings in a quid for Universal to finance other projects like 'More Hits Expanded', then I'm all for it.
Will this be for sale in America? I hope so. Diana Ross's music is so much fun.
NICE list Redlabs. I'd love to have some of those on a compilation as well. I don't mind there being Supremes tracks, it was a huge part of her career, and if it keeps more casual fans happy, then great. But, it would be best if they only used those to fill out the album AFTER they included all her great hits, instead of leaving some out for the Supremes tracks.
Laurel: I'm just guessing here, but I'd assume that it won't be sold here in America directly. However, after these things come out, places like Amazon and other sites typically get them here through independent sellers.
i forgot MISSING YOU,SWEPT AWAY,DIRTY LOOKS
Ok, just downloaded it from iTunes UK since they included the booklet with purchase so here's a few initial thoughts and spoilers....
Essay is nice (author not listed) but does have a few minor typos that don't bother me personally but seem to send the diehards into a tizzy on this board so be forewarned. The photos are nice but no images we've haven't seen in some form before (The 76 Greatest Hits Cover, the #1's cover with heads included, the One Woman Best of Cover, etc.)
Haven't listened to it all the way through but all the RCA years stuff carries the 1993 copyright so I suspect they pulled the Forever Diana / One Woman Ultimate tapes and used those when compiling however the few cuts I've gotten through sound better than those collections did. Single edits abound here, most in stereo but a few mono mixes as well. Diana is listed as executive producer, however, Debbie Sandridge compiled and sequenced it. The coordinator for Ms. Ross was Rosanne Shelnutt. No other thank you's or detailed info provided just a blurb to go to the official Facebook page. I think the last paragraph sums up the package perfectly...
"As the title of her current world circling tour suggests, Diana Ross is More Today Than Yesterday. she provides the soundtrack to the lives and loves of millions. Even with the ever shifting mores of popular taste, it is impossible not to hear Diana Ross' influence in today's transatlantic charts. From Baby Love to When You Tell Me That You Love Me with Westlife, she has visited the UK Top 10 in every decade from the 60's to the 00s. The Greatest is just that, Diana Ross's most memorable moments all in one place."

I really believed this growing up and every time someone swept near me I ran or got up and walked away.
Anyone have funny fibs they fell for?

PRETORIA, South Africa (AP) - A statement from the family of Oscar Pistorius and his management says they dispute the claim that he murdered his girlfriend "in the strongest terms."
The statement was issued Friday after the double-amputee Olympian wept in court when prosecutors said they would pursue a charge of premeditated murder against him for the Valentine's Day killing of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.
The statement, issued from London, said: "The alleged murder is disputed in the strongest terms." It also said that Pistorius "would like to send his deepest sympathies to the family of Reeva."
Pistorius will be held in a police station in South Africa's capital, Pretoria, until Tuesday, when he appears again for a bail hearing.

Every time I try to upload anything, slideroom gives me a little exclamation point warning icon in place of the image preview, and the message that "there was a problem processing this item. Please delete this item and try a different file."
It's also taking super-long.
So is it because there's a bottleneck? Are all the people entering at the last minute clogging the system? I can't think of any other reason... My images aren't terribly large, all are below the jpeg file size limit. I'm also uploading from my C drive, not a flash drive. So I'm kind of stumped, and panicked.
Anyone else having this problem or know a workaround?

Sunday Times (London)
February 3, 2013
by Irwin Stelzer
It took only a tiny drop of 0.1% in fourth-quarter GDP to produce another battle in the ideological war that is going on in Washington. Republicans blame it on the president's spending and deficits, the president and his team on the congressional Republicans they call a "major headwind", and on Fox News for opposing Barack Obama's plans for more spending and higher taxes.
The president says there is no spending problem, Republicans that spending is the problem.
Which brings us to what is known as the sequester. It is the last weapon left to Republican spending-cutters who bottled out in the fiscal cliff fight by allowing taxes and tax rates to rise, and have allowed the debt ceiling to rise for the next few months without obtaining significant spending cuts as a quid pro quo. Unless a deal is reached to cut the deficit by $1.2 trillion over the next 10 years, spending cuts will be triggered, to fall equally on defence and on some domestic programmes.
The theory was that these cuts would be repugnant to Republicans — who fear that $600bn of defence cuts would "devastate" the military, to use the word of Leon Panetta, Obama's departing defence secretary — and unappealing to Democrats because their favoured social programmes would share the pain with the military. This mutual distaste would force the parties to agree to replace the sequester meat axe with a scalpel.
No such luck. The president insists that any deal include more tax increases on the "wealthy", while the Republicans are adamant that the $600bn increase he wrung from them during the fiscal cliff negotiations is all the new taxes he will ever get. Add that Republicans believe incoming defence secretary Chuck Hagel has been told to cut back on the military. Since they can't save the defence budget, Republicans figure they might as well use the sequester to get the cuts in domestic programmes the president has said he would not countenance if he had the power to block them. Which is why it is now considered likely the sequester will be allowed to take effect on March 1.
Its effects are already being felt. The Pentagon, benefiting from the troop drawdowns in Iraq and Afghanistan, and knowing the bean counters are sharpening their pencils, cut spending in the last quarter by 22%, the largest such cut in 50 years. Along with a decline in inventories, that reduction accounted for most of the 0.1% fourth-quarter GDP decline. Pentagon suppliers began cutting staff last year, most visibly in the headquarters and research facilities surrounding the capital, their wailings and those of their workers and lobbyists clearly audible in the halls of Congress. As is their prediction that the sequester would add 2m to the 12m already unemployed and produce a second consecutive quarter of negative growth, the standard definition of "recession".
Meanwhile, with 75% of the 200 companies that have so far reported earnings beating analysts' forecasts, and the Fed keeping interest rates close to zero, investors drove share prices up a rousing 5% last month. They were undeterred by the decline of 0.1% in the fourth quarter because that aggregate figure obscured the healthy growth of the core drivers of the economy.
Businesses stepped up spending on plant, equipment and software at an annual rate of 8.4%. Consumers, who continue to trade-in old vehicles, many with 150,000-200,000 miles on the clock, for sleeker, electronics-laden, fuel-efficient ones, upped spending at a 2.2% rate. Add the 15.3% growth in residential investment as the housing sector continues its recovery: home builders are rushing to meet the demand that is reflected in shortages of homes for sale and rising prices (up 5.5% in the past year), and which spurs sales of everything from furniture and carpets to power tools. All in all, the growth drivers added 2.7% to fourth quarter 2012 growth.
Throw in three other factors that minimise the importance of the 0.1% fourth-quarter decline. The reduction in government spending in late 2012 is not altogether a bad thing: if sustained, it might bring down the deficit. Second, the drop in inventories means more stuff moved off the shelves than was added to stocks, setting the stage for re-stocking in the next quarter. Finally, the Federal Reserve Board's monetary policy committee notes that "weather-related disruptions and other transitory factors" added to the downward tug in the fourth quarter. So there is little reason to treat the 0.1% fourth-quarter downtick as a harbinger of hard times to come, and more reason to give weight to the growth in the consumer, business and housing sectors, not to mention the favourable demographic, energy and insourcing trends referred to in last week's column.
Still, it would be prudent to keep the champagne on ice, unopened.
? The 157,000 jobs created last month were too few to prevent a modest uptick in the unemployment rate from 7.8% to 7.9%, or to provide work for the more than 12m unemployed workers.
? The 2.6% gain in personal income in December was inflated by bringing forward into 2012 dividends originally scheduled to be paid in 2013, in order to beat the dividend-tax increase.
? Sequester spending cuts might knock some 0.7% off GDP growth this year.
Then there are things we don't yet know.
? The impact of the January 1 increase in payroll taxes: the average family has been hit with a $20-per-week cut in take-home pay.
? Whether the wealthy, faced with increases in tax rates on their incomes and capital gains, an Obamacare tax on investment income and whatever other bad news the Obama administration has in store for them, will rein in spending.
? Whether small businesses faced with substantial Obamacare penalties if they have more than 50 workers will continue to hold off on hiring and investment.
Add to these known unknowns the unknown unknowns, political and economic, and it would be foolish to claim a clear crystal ball. Still, this economist can't help feeling that the US economy will grow at a faster rate than the 1.5% consensus forecast.

Posted: Jan 4, 2013 9:12 AM by Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Food and Drug Administration is proposing the most sweeping food safety rules in decades, requiring farmers and food companies to be more vigilant in the wake of deadly outbreaks in peanuts, cantaloupe and leafy greens.
The long-overdue rules are aimed at reducing the estimated 3,000 deaths a year from foodborne illness. Just since this summer, listeria in cheese and salmonella in peanut butter, mangoes and cantaloupe are linked to more than 400 illnesses and as many as seven deaths.
The rules proposed by the FDA Friday will require farmers to take precautions against contamination on the farm - making sure workers' hands are washed, irrigation water is clean, and animals stay out of fields, for example. Food manufacturers will also have to submit food safety plans to the government.

Hello again, RPG!
There seems to be a common trend of roleplays being all planned out and then they never actually happen so here I am on another search. I would prefer advanced, but I don't hugely care about standards as long as you give me something to work with. Also, quality over quantity. That doesn't mean I'm alright with seeing one-liners, however. Now down to business:
I think I've included everything in this thread you need to know for now. Enjoy!

about the exhibition
International Artist-In-Residence
New Works 08.1
Rodney McMillian
Los Angeles, CA
March 13–May 11, 2008
about the artistRodney McMillian's multimedia installations recycle remnants of everyday life into objects that deconstruct the tenets of historical interpretation. Formally trained in both painting and foreign affairs, McMillian in his exhibitions and performances juxtaposes a variety of media—from realist paintings to found objects and video—resisting adherence to a single creative practice. These strategies provide a language to examine an idea of history as a non-linear construction, consumerism, and pop culture.
Rodney McMillian was born in Columbia, SC, in 1969. He currently lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. McMillian received his MFA from the California Institute of the Arts, Valencia, CA, in 2005. He has had solo exhibitions at Neuer Aachener Kunstverein (NAK), Aachen, Germany (2007); Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects, Culver City, CA (2006, 03); and Triple Candie, New York, NY (2003), among others. His group exhibitions include the Whitney Biennial, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY (2008); Rodney McMillian and Olga Koumoundouros: On a Porch, LAXART, Los Angeles, CA (2007); and Painting in Tongues, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, CA (2006). He was recently awarded the William H. Johnson Prize by The William H. Johnson Foundation for the Arts (2007).
about the project
McMillian's Untitled comprises a group of paintings, photographs, and historical ephemera. Each work references myriad sources—from Cormac McCarthy's novel The Road to 19th-century American and German landscape painting. Seen as a unit, these works form a constellation that situates paintings adjacent to sculpture in order to explore themes related to the landscape, church, and home.
The five canvases hanging from ceiling to floor are laden with a combination of red, black, and white latex and acrylic paints. Between these paintings are anonymous portraits, gathered by the artist from antique stores. The photographs, all framed and altered to measure 11 x 14 inches, are stacked in vertical columns that terminate just above eye level. The resulting uniformity of these images suggests the organization of tombstones in a graveyard or the columns of names listed on a memorial wall. By using photographs of unknown individuals, McMillian has emphasized the vast numbers represented in human birth and death.
The sculptural nexus of the exhibition—a ragged chair and rug—is surmounted by a six-pointed, vaulted paper canopy. This makeshift cathedral ceiling, however, is dwarfed by the paintings dominating the walls. Linking sculpture and painting, McMillian has coated the soiled chair and rug with thick applications, respectively, of red acrylic and latex paint.
The sound component to the installation, Pelicans in Texas by musician Stefan Tcherepnin, is a synthesizer-based minimalist composition. This two-channel progression pulses back and forth between silent tracks and cacophonous, yet oddly meditative sound. Reverberating bass frequencies and dissonant spiking sounds bounce throughout the space, permeating the environment. By presenting this musical compilation in conjunction with the physical elements of the installation, McMillian conjures an atypical cathedral setting.

Half-Finished London Hotel Project Goes Into Receivership
Filed under: Luxury Travel & Hotels, Real Estate Developments
It's a rough time to be an architect. This economy has led to many projects being scrapped before they get built and others halted in the midst of construction. Another in the long list of ones stopped midway through is the half-completed hotel on the Strand in Central London. Building UK reports that the project, which halted construction at the end of last year, is now in receivership. This project was designed by Foster + Partners, Lord Norman Foster's firm, and was being developed by Spanish developer Urvasco on a site that was once the location of Citibank House. PricewaterhouseCoopers has been appointed receiver on the £25 million project which was to include a five-star hotel and 79 luxury apartments. Right now the receiver is evaluating the property with an eye toward preparing it for sale.

Cedar Key Arts Center announced a new addition to its sculpture garden, a leaping dolphin, created by Patrick McGee. McGee casts hollow cement sculptures and covers them with a patina to resemble bronze or copper. The resulting sculpture is affordable. The pieces will be on display, and in cooperation with the Cedar Key Arts center, a portion of sales will be donated to the center.

With friends like these, who needs enemies?
If Pakistan Government requesting China not to veto the UN resolution banning Jama'at-ud-Dawa wasn't an eye opener for some, the latest shenanigans should put to rest any doubts on where the loyalties of those in charge in Islamabad lie.
As reported in DAWN, the Foreign Office recently scuttled a move for adoption of a resolution in the National Assembly asking US President Barack Obama to appoint an envoy on Kashmir or include the settlement of the dispute in the mandate of the US envoy on Afghanistan and Pakistan.
A top official of the Foreign Office blocked the move by setting aside a joint resolution approved by members from both the sides of the aisle, and came out with another version, excluding the call for sending a US envoy on Kashmir.
The move by Marvi Memon of the PML-Q was supported not only by her party's leadership, but also by the PPP, PML-N, ANP, JUI-F, PPP-Sherpao and Fata MNAs. [Full Story]
Additionally, read the following from BrassTacks:
Greater-India Calendar Circulated Among Parliamentarians
With traitors within our own government, Indians and RAW had the audacity to distribute greater India calendar in our own parliament. This government is the biggest security threat Pakistan faces today and all enemies thrive under their umbrella. First we had billboards on the roadsides depicting greater Afghanistan and now we have greater India calendars in the parliament. It is time we work on greater Pakistan and small India options, INSHALLAH. [Link to the story in DAWN]

As everyone is coming back onto campus...so are intramural sports! We are offering soccer, sand volleyball, kickball, and softball!
At the IMSB, students can find a great number of Racquetball Courts. The sport can be played three ways; Singles, Doubles, or Cut-Throat (three-on-three). For Michigan IMs tournaments, games will be played one-on-one.
Basic rules to remember once players have started a game are:
Faster in water than you are on ground? Then Michigan Intramurals has the perfect tournament for you. At the historic Canham Natatorium, Intramural athletes will have a chance to compete individually or with relay teams to win T-Shirt Gold.
Badminton is a one-on-one game played on a court similar to that of volleyball, with different dimensions of course. The aim of badminton is to hit the shuttle with your racket so that it passes over the net and lands inside your opponent's half of the court. Whenever you do this, you have won a rally; win enough rallies, and you win the match.
Much like Racquetball, Squash is played at the IMSB with a few different dimensions to court size and gameplay. For starters, the ball is much "squishier" and hollow, making it more difficult for players to judge off walls and floor bounces.
The three basic rules still apply from racquetball:
9-ball is a widely popular game, especially at the Michigan Union. The object of the game is to use the cue ball to knock all the ball into the pockets, in number order. When knocking the nine ball in to win the game.
Nearly everyone can remember attempting to knock all the pins down while bowling at a childhood friend's birthday party. The only difference this time is there are no bumpers and party hats. The Intramural Bowling Tournament will be held at Cubs AC Lanes and will require high scores if you seek ultimate glory: The Intramural Champion T-Shirt.

"Aluminum for Defense": Rationing at Home during World War II
The productive capacity of the United States during World War II surpassed all expectations. To boost that production and maintain supply levels for troops abroad, Americans at home were asked to conserve materials and to accept ration coupons or stamps that limited the purchase of certain products. Gasoline, rubber, sugar, butter, and some kinds of cloth were among the many items rationed. American responses to rationing varied from cheerful compliance to resigned grumbling to instances of blac
"All the Colored Women Like This Work": Black Workers During World War I
Wartime production demanded the mobilization of thousands of workers to make steel and rubber, to work in petrochemical industries, and to build ships. As a result, African Americans made striking gains in employment even while also facing continuing discrimination. Black women, for example, got jobs working on the railroads for the first time during the world war. Black women found jobs as laborers, cleaning cars, wiping engines, tending railroad beds. Helen Ross was one of them, working for th
