Following Latest Recall Shocker, GM Has Recalled 56% More Cars In 2014 Than It Sold In 2013Submitted by Tyler Durden on 05/20/2014 10:45 -0500
Over the weekend we titled our summary of GM's unprecedented avalanche of recalls so far in 2014 - the year in which the company's criminal practice of covering up its faulty products became a congressional scandal - as follows: "GM Set To Surpass Total Recall Record This Year." Three days later we are happy to report that while Detroit, we not only have a big recall problem, we also have a new record, after moments ago GM just announced another 4 recalls affecting 2.4 million cars. This brings the total number of vehicle investigations since the start of the year to 35, and with today's four latest fiascos, has initiated a whopping 29 recalls. More importantly, this also means that the number of domestic recalls rises to 13.6 million, smashing the previous record of 11.8 million recalls in 2004, and brings the number of global recalls to 15.2 million: or a stunning 56% greater than the 9.7 million cars GM sold in all of 2013!

Student And Car Loans Account For 102% Of All New February Consumer CreditSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 03/07/2014 15:16 -0500
Another month down, another month in which US consumers deleveraged by paying down their credit cards. Although that is not exactly correct: as we showed recently, the New Normal source of credit has nothing to do with revolving debt, or credit cards, or any other old normal notions, and everything to do with student debt, which is used for everything except paying for tuition. That, and car loans of course. Sure enough, in February, of the $13.7 billion in new loans created, $13.9 billion, or 102% of all, was there to fund student and car loans. And looking further back at the data over the past year, of the $172 billion in new consumer debt, a stunning 96% has gone to new student and car loans.

June Consumer Credit Rises Less Than Expected; Entire Increase Driven By Car And Studen LoansSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/07/2013 14:16 -0500
So much for hopes that US consumers were loosening the purse strings and starting to "charge it." Moments ago we got the latest, June, consumer credit which was expected to increase $15 billion following the May revised $17.6 billion. More importantly, there was an expectation that following the surge in May revolving credit which rose by $6.4 billion or the second most in the past three years (only matched by the comparable pre-summer surge in 2012). Sadly, neither expectation was met: total consumer credit rose by "only" $13.8 billion, but more importantly, the revolving component posted a $2.7 billion decline. This also matched last year's pattern when June saw a major reduction of $2.8 billion. In other words, the only credit creation in the month of June was, once again, entirely for student and car loans, which rose by a whopping $16.5 billion - the most since February and the second highest increase since July 2011. So much for US consumers seeking to relever for discretionary purchases.

March Consumer Credit Increase Driven Entirely (And Then Some) By Student And Car LoansSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 05/07/2013 14:18 -0500
The March consumer credit headline was a disappointment, increasing by just $7.97 billion, on expectations of a $15.6 billion increase, with the February total revised lower to $18.14 billion. So far so bad. It gets worse when one peeks beneath the surface and finds that discretionary consumer credit in the form of credit card and other revolving loans posted its first decline of 2013, dropping by $1.7 billion, the biggest decline since December's 2.1 billion. So what rose: why debt for purchases of Government Motors and student loans of course, which increased by $9.676 billion in March. In other words: the student bubble keeps getting bigger, more and more GM cars are being bought on subprime credit, while the vast majority of Americans can't even afford to charge toilet paper purchases as the discretionary deleveraging continues.

Surprise! All Banks Pass Stress Test (Except Ally)Submitted by Tyler Durden on 03/07/2013 16:31 -0500
In a stunning headline-making moment of clarity, it appears that all the major financials that the Fed monitors (except GMAC Ally) will survive a cataclysmic, Lehman-like moment based on their self-determined analytics of their deeply illiquid off-balance-sheet assets (and a comprehensive understanding of the co-dependence of all those assets). As Bloomberg notes,
Is it any wonder that Government Motors wanted to IPO its GMAC/Ally business recently - with a 1.5% stressed Tier 1 ratio.

I really need to stop being so pessimistic. I'm getting richer by the day. My home value is rising at a rate of 1% per month according to the National Association of Realtors. At that rate, my house will be worth $1 million in less than 10 years. Every mainstream media newspaper, magazine, and news channel is telling me the "strong" housing recovery is propelling the economy and creating millions of new jobs. Keynesian economists, Wall Street bankers, government apparatchiks and housing trade organizations are all in agreement that the wealth effect from rising home prices will be the jumpstart our economy needs to get back to the glory days of 2005. Who am I to argue with such honorable men with degrees from Ivy League schools and a track record of unquestioned accuracy as we can see in the chart below? These are the facts. But why trust facts when you can believe Baghdad Ben and the NAR? It's always the best time to buy.

Uncle Sam Books 50% Loss As Government Motors Buys Back 200MM Shares From Tim GeithnerSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/19/2012 08:14 -0500
A few days after divesting its stake in the firm that started it all, AIG, and at a profit at that (ignoring that the risk has merely been onboarded by the Fed whose DV01 is now $2+ billion as a result), the US Treasury continues to divest of all its bailout stake, this time proceeding to GM, where the channel stuffing firm just announced it would buyback 200MM shares from the US government at a price of $27.50. More importantly, the "Treasury said it intends to sell its other remaining 300.1 million shares through various means in an orderly fashion within the next 12-15 months, subject to market conditions. Treasury intends to begin its disposition of those 300.1 million common shares as soon as January 2013 pursuant to a pre-arranged written trading plan. The manner, amount, and timing of the sales under the plan are dependent upon a number of factors." Assuming a price in the $27.50 range, this implies a nearly 50% loss on the government's breakeven price of $54. So much for the "profit" spin. One hopes all those Union votes were well worth the now booked $40+ billion cost to all taxpayers.

The Circle Is Complete: GM Reunites With GMACSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/21/2012 18:25 -0500
When it comes to government bailout case studies, the past four years have plenty. One among them is the financial company jovially called Ally - a name which well-paid nomenclature consultants were convinced would inspire confidence and trust. And to an extent they were right - after all we are talking about a firm which several years ago had a far more unpleasant name: GMAC, short for General Motors Acceptance Corporation. It was GMAC which, as one of the various entities on the receiving end of involuntary taxpayer generosity in 2008/2009, received a $17.2 billion bailout. The reason for GMAC's Ally's collapse is that the firm was loaded up to the gills on various subprime and other NINJA auto-financing loans used to purchase cars made by that other spectacular collapse: General Motors, maker of such external combustion vehicles as the Chevy Volt. Over the past several months the Ally CEO, Michael Carpenter, decided to little by little start paying taxpayers back, having sold a Canadian unit to RBC in October for $4.1 billion, and its Mexican Insurance business to Ace Ltd for $865 million. Moments ago the firm just announced it would be selling its international auto-finance businesses, including its operations in Europe, LatAm and a 40% stake in its Chinese JV (a business it previously said it would not seek to divest), for a total of $4.2 billion. The buyer? Another previously bailed out company, and one which still counts the government as its biggest shareholder: General Motors. And so the vendor financing circle is now complete, with GM finally reuniting with its old captive finance units, or at least the international part of them, which were fully owned until GM sold 51% of it to Cerberus in 2006, after which everything went to hell.

In September Uncle Sam Continued To Hand Out Car And Student Loans Like A Drunken SailorSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/07/2012 15:26 -0500
Following one of the highest monthly jumps in consumer credit in August, the September data showed that following the drop in household savings to a multi-year low, consumers naturally retrenched, and had no choice but to pay down debt. As the just released G.19 confirmed, in September, households once again reduced their credit card debt, which declined by $2.9 billion to $852 billion. This was the fourth such decline in six months, confirming that at the discretionary level where banks have supervision over borrowings, the consumer is still nowhere near willing to relever. Where, there was leverage, a lot of it, was once again in the government sector, which funded $13.8 billion of the total $14.6 billion rise in NSA credit, and where non-revolving credit: read loans for Government Motors, at least those that have not been record channel stuffed (as reported previously) and Federal Student Loans, which are now over $1 trillion, rose by $14.3 billion in one month. Of course, the difference between revolving and non-revolving credit is that while banks expect the former to be paid off eventually, Uncle Sam has no such illusions on any low APR debt it hands out to anyone who asks for it (and if the proceeds from student loans are used to purchase iPads, so be it).

GM Channel Stuffing Soars To RecordSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/01/2012 09:35 -0500
For a few months there, we were worried that GM may have actually found a (government-funded) natural subprime buyer of its vehicles after the company managed to keep its channel stuffing in check for several months. Those fears ended today with the company's October car sales report, according to which GM sold 4.7% more cars, or 42,759 in absolute terms (from 153,005 to 195,764) in October than September, below expectations of a 7.8% increase. So far so good. What however will hardly get any mention from Government Motors cheerleaders is that GM auto inventory at dealers as of October 31 was a record 739,034 (a massive 98 days of supply), an increase of 49,700 from October's 689,334. In other words, the entire incremental rise in sales, and then some, was due to the firm stuffing dealers with even more inventory than they can possibly handle!

Ray spells (e.g. Ray of Frost) seem to have issues targeting objects and, occasionally, mobs. Here are two images documenting this issue
You can see quite clearly in the first image that due to the lock-on targeting, not only is the ray spell nowhere near the cursor, it's blatantly missing. The second image shows that even though the ray is clearly "hitting" the pile, it is in fact missing and not triggering the pile's destruction. Sweeping around these piles also failed to hit them.
Earlier in the same game, I also had a fallen I had targeted able to walk through the beam, get into melee range, and become unhittable even by sweeping around.
Other abilities, such as Arcane Orb, do work as intended, and have been my go-to workaround for this issue.
EDIT: I'd also like to add that this can't be intended functionality, as I've had Ray of Frost stop on random NPCs (e.g. Necromancers during the Act II events) and other breakable objects.

Ron Ross, director of the state Health and Human Services System, was named Wednesday to succeed Lorelee Byrd as State Treasurer.
Byrd, who is resigning next month, has pleaded guilty to misconduct in office.
Ross was appointed by Gov. Mike Johanns.
"His honesty and integrity are a key part to all of this," Johanns said.
He will fill out the remaining three years of Byrd's term and then be eligible to run for election to the office.
Byrd was sentenced Tuesday to 300 hours of community service following an investigation of financial irregularities in her office.
Byrd pleaded guilty to the charge of official misconduct last month.
Byrd announced her resignation, effective Jan. 6, earlier this month.

A decade later he stumbled or became confused.
There was no one else along on this outing, so why was he
always flailing his arms majestically? Talking to the walls? Whenever someone'd
cross over to be kind to him it was as though he'd never seen a human face before;
the eyes were runny, the nose ditto, the words were like chopped cotton wool
after he'd forced them out. To drag meaning like this behind one is bad
enough, but to have it beside one is worse, worse than knowing what to do.
Finally the memory became an object
to be passed around for displays of connoisseurship to ignite; this,
one can live in the same house with one's ambitions and
drives and still have the luxury of feeling alone: oh come off it, no
one wants to be alone. And even, you know, accept the occasional invitation
but also slog on unshod, solitary, except for casual greetings from
even more casual acquaintances.
Webster's Dictionary defines a 'flow-chart' as a 'schematic diagram...showing the progress of materials through the various stages of a manufacturing process'.
In this Flow Chart, a book-length poem, John Ashbery charts the ebb and flow of life perceived - and perhaps lived - through the almost sacred art of self-reflection, What emerges is a procession of tones, moods and passions, meditation with no predetermined conclusion, journey with no firm destination. His materials include the stuff of every-day reality and every-night dream; dialogues with self, soul and an unnamed 'significant other'; and a stream of consciousness that illuminates in flashes the personal metaphysic that is the poem's undrelying subject.

A professional group of medical practitioners in the UK is calling for higher clinical standards in cosmetic surgery - and is spelling an end to so-called Botox parties.
"Bored of Tupperware and Murder Mystery parties? Why not gather together a group of your closest friends and family and host your own Botox/Injectables party?!" says the text on the site of a Cardiff cosmetic treatment clinic called DivaDoc. The clinical director Dr Elena House even does house calls.
House calls for wrinkles and stretch marks?
It's all possible in the UK's cosmetic industry. Beauticians and others with no medical training are allowed to perform Botox treatments and dermal fillers right in the comfort (or discomfort) of your own home.
But some medical professionals are calling for a strengthening of the country's cosmetic industry standards.
In new guidelines just released, the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) says non-surgical cosmetic treatments such as Botox injections and dermal fillers should only be administered by trained doctors, nurses or dentists. It also says such treatments should only take place in clinics with resuscitation equipment.
Botox and dermal fillers are often used to reduce facial wrinkles or "lip enhancement."
Psychological help for patients
The RCS recommends also recommends that practitioners discuss any relevant psychological issues and assess the mental well-being of people before treatment.
But "a single evaluation can't work out underlying problems," says Dr Sven von Saldern, the president of the German Association for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (DGÄPC).
He believes patients need up to four or five sessions with a psychologist before any underlying problems can be discovered. Von Saldern encourages his patients to seek psychological help before undergoing cosmetic surgery, but says many other surgeons do not.
"I wouldn't even know a single practice that has employed a single psychologist," says Von Saldern.
The RCS also recommends that the industry use more ambiguous language such as "bigger" or "smaller" when recommending what a person may want to change about the physical appearance, instead of qualitative words such "better" or "look nice."
By comparison, Von Saldern says emotive and qualitative language is rare in Germany's cosmetics industry. Likewise, before and after images are banned in Germany. He says there are strict regulations governing the sort of promises a doctor can legally make when discussing medical treatments. And they are required to make sure that patients understand the risks.
German doctors are also bound by regulations on price dumping.
Doctors found to be reducing fees or performing surgery for free can have their medical license revoked by the country's Board of Physicians. The UK does not have such regulations. So, the RCS is calling for a ban special deals for cosmetic surgery.
A global industry
But banning botox parties and making the cosmetic industry highly regulated might not help patients in the long run.
"[Regulation] has to be in balance," says DGÄPC's von Saldern. "If things get restricted, it may drive patients out of the country.
Cosmetic surgery tourism is already widespread and it is a concern to experts. But in a statement to DW, the RCS says its focus is on protecting people in the UK.
The RCS has no regulatory authority. A final decision to act on its proposed regulations lies with the UK's Health Department. It is due to release a review of the country's cosmetic surgery industry in March.
So, if you've planned a Botox party between now and then, don't worry, the authorities won't come calling to shut it down. Not yet.

"I still hope that the Russians see some sense and recognise that they should allow Ukraine to develop as an independent and free country, free to make its choices," Cameron told a news conference in the Australian capital Canberra.
"If Russia takes a positive approach towards the Ukraine's freedom and responsibility we could see those sanctions removed," the Prime Minister continued.
"If Russia continues to make matters worse then we could see those sanctions increased, its as simple as that".
Ukraine ceasefire 'has been broken 2,400 times'
The apparent ceasefire between separatists and government forces in eastern Ukraine is all but non-existent, according to the European organisation monitoring the crisis
An Organisation of Security and Co-operation in Europe told Austrian newspaper Die Presse that the ceasefire and been violated on at least 2,400 occasions.
Since the Minsk agreement...we have more than 2,400 breaches of the cease-fire by militant groups. More than 100 Ukrainian soldiers and dozens of civilians have been killed.
EU 'unlikely' to step up sanctions against Russia
EU foreign ministers are unlikely to step up sanctions against Russia when they meet next Monday, despite disputed reports of Russian troops entering eastern Ukraine over the past two days.
One EU diplomat told Reuters today: "The council (of foreign ministers) will not go for further sanctions despite turmoil and elections."
Another EU diplomat told the news agency: "The existing sanctions are painful for Russia, and they are likely to be sharpened only if the EU has no other choice. We are not there yet, although at some point we might be."
Ukraine's defence minister prepares for possible attack
Ukrainian forces are preparing for a possible new attack from pro-Russian separatists following reports of Russian tanks and troops crossing into eastern Ukraine.
Ukraine's Defence Minister Stepan Poltorak told a government meeting rebels had received reinforcements despite a ceasefire being agreed in September, Reuters reports.
He said: "We are repositioning our armed forces to respond to the actions of the (rebel) fighters, I see my main task is to prepare for military action."
Russia has denied claims by Nato and the Ukraine government that it has sent military units into the country.
Russia denies sending troops into Ukraine
Moscow has denied claims by Nato and the Ukraine government that it has sent military units into the country.
The denial from Russian's defence ministry comes as Nato's top military commander, US. Air Force General Philip Breedlove, appears to support claims from Kiev about a Russian military operation underway in the east of Ukraine.
We have seen columns of Russian equipment, primarily Russian tanks, Russian artillery, Russian air defence systems and Russian combat troops entering into Ukraine.
Earlier today, Reuters reported that Ukrainian government forces are redeploying in preparation for a possible new offensive by pro-Russian separatists in eastern regions and that columns of Russian tanks had crossed the border overnight.

Ukraine's Donetsk suffers worst shelling in weeks
The eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk was under heavy bombardment overnight, the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe said.
The worst shelling in weeks lasted over eight hours.
Ukraine's military accused Russia on Friday of sending a column of 32 tanks and truckloads of troops into the country's east to support pro-Russian separatists fighting government forces.
Russia has denied arming pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine who have broken away from the Kiev government.
Report: 'Column of 32 tanks enters Ukraine from Russia'
A column of 32 tanks has entered Ukraine from Russia, according to the AFP news agency.
#BREAKING Column of 32 tanks enters Ukraine from Russia: Kiev
The agency reported the Ukrainian military as saying that after the latest fighting left five dead and at least 31 injured.
Military spokesman Andriy Lysenko said a convoy made up of 32 tanks, 16 howitzer cannons and 30 trucks of troops and equipment crossed the border into the rebel-controlled Lugansk region on Thursday.
Another column including trucks and three mobile radar stations crossed another border point in the same region, AFP cited him as saying.
Ukraine's president declares elections in east illegitimate
Ukraine's President Petro Poroshenko has called elections being held in the rebel-held east of the country illegitimate.
He said that Ukraine and the rest of the world would reject the results, and called on Russia to do the same.

By Johnny JacksonLawns are turning brown in Chicago. Across other parts of the Midwest, flowers are wilting. Water levels are so low that ducks can stand in some rivers, and streams. Chicago, WGN-TV meteorologist Dennis Haller said this is the driest summer so far in 135 years. The city has stopped watering the grass at parks. The drought is stunting corn, rice, and soybean crops across the nation's Farm Belt and is also leading many communities in more urban parts of the Midwest to ban lawn-watering and urge homeowners to conserve. Sound familiar? It resembles the droughts that parched Clayton and Henry counties and many parts of the South for years. But this summer, the word drought is not in any of the forecasts for Clayton and Henry counties where rains have drenched the area. Bad weather has brought damage to houses and structures like the Atlanta Motor Speedway, downed power lines and tree limbs and brought some flooding. But on the positive side, it has also brought plenty of rain to fill the lakes and rivers. So far this year, Hartsfield-Jackson Airport has reported 39.52 inches of rain. And the above normal rainfall has shown itself in topped reservoirs through Clayton and Henry counties. "Clayton county can produce 42 million gallons water per day," said Wade Brannan, general manager for the Clayton County Water Authority. He said the county uses about 29 million gallons of water per day from county reservoirs and the Flint River nearby. "We have 145 days of reserve." Two years ago, the Board of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) urged Georgia residents to conserve water in lieu of an earlier drought. In particular, the Georgia Environmental Protection Division (EPD), the Pollution Prevention Assistance Division (P2AD) and the State Water Conservation coordinator proposed year-round conservation and announced restrictions on outdoor water use that are still in effect. "What we've learned is that in a state like Georgia we need to conserve water," said Kevin Chambers, referring to the steady population growth in the state. Chambers is communications director for the Georgia Environmental Protection Division. He emphasized the State Drought Management Plan, a plan designed to minimize the potential effect of drought, while considering certain measures to take during various stages of drought. It includes schedules for outdoor water use. "During the drought period, we never ran short of reserves," said Brannan. "We had less water in reserve, but an adequate amount. We had plenty to operate our system in a safe condition. And we were able to do that with the cooperation of our customers to conserve water and maintain safe levels." "People are more educated now, and use water more wisely because of the drought we went through a couple of years ago." Susan Zimmer-Dauphinee, program manager of the ambient monitoring program, said that people should be concerned about air pollutants during dry, stagnant weather. "We've been under a stagnate high pressure system," Zimmer-Dauphinee, said, referring to the orange level air quality alert Friday. "When there is lots of sun light and not much wind, air pollutants stay in one area. But when we have storms--severe or not--the heavy rain could wash some pollutants out of the air." "When it rains, people make the comment that they're getting tired of their grass, because it's growing so fast," said Roderick Burch, finance director for Henry County Water and Sewage Authority handling customer service. "It's a little bit of a headache, but not much," said Josh Allin, production manager for Allin Landscaping based in Stockbridge. "During the rainy season, we raise our planting beds and spray for fungus. "I can't plant around weather, but I watch the rain--this summer, more than normal because of the amount of fungus that has grown due to all the rainfall." He said that Allin Landscaping has more than doubled its clientele recently due to the number of new residents and businesses in metro-Atlanta needing landscape installation and maintenance. "Drought brings business up," Allin said. "More phone calls are generated during the dry season, than during the wet season." "We've been having a lot of afternoon thunderstorms that have actually been beneficial to us," Burch said. "It has curtailed outdoor watering and the demand for water. "We're actually doing pretty well in terms of expectations. The actual demands have been on target with what we were planning for this year." The average daily water usage in Henry County last June was similar to its average daily water usage a year before. But extreme outliners in the peak day averages indicate a 15 percent difference between those peak days in June, 2004 and 2005, where June 2005 appears more conservative in water use. Burch said that there are many variables to consider when comparing water usage from year to year, including population growth and weather conditions. "We have three to four thousand more customers than we had last year. And if we have more rainfall this year than last, that's going to make a huge difference in water demand." According to the Henry County Water and Sewer Authority, after a long fought court battle, it was given the clearance to proceed with the Tussahaw Reservoir and Water Treatment Facility. Tussahaw Reservoir will sit on a 1,466-acre site and will provide enough water to meet the current and future demands of the third-fastest growing county in the U.S. The reservoir will contain wetlands mitigation along with a possible fishery on the site. The Tussahaw Water Treatment Facility will initially provide 13 million gallons of finished drinking water per day (MGD) to HCWSA customers, though the plant is designed to expand to 26 MGD if necessary in the future, according to the authority. The new reservoir and adjoining water treatment plant will yield 23.6 million gallons of water per day to Henry County residents. This additional water should meet the needs of the county until the year 2027. Begun in October of 2003, the heart of the Tussahaw construction project is expected to take 24 to 30 months, depending on weather and other factors. Farmers in the region are generally feeling good about their crops this year, said Tommy Irvin, the commissioner of the Georgia Department of Agriculture. "We've come out in pretty good shape this year," Irvin said. "And everybody's upbeat. We were very concerned about the hurricanes earlier this summer, but the circus has moved out farther west. "Our crops matured as much as two weeks later than normal." he said. "We got kind of a slow start this summer and had a temporary loss, but we've moved forward steadily since. "(Although) we've had one of the wettest Julys, we'll probably have our best corn crop in years. Because most of the rain this summer has been moderate. "There's been a little bit of irrigation but far less than normal," Irvin said. He said less irrigation benefits both farmers and consumers in the long run, as irrigation is an expensive procedure. "This year, some farmers have irrigated the least in maybe the last two decades." "The good news is, it is raining almost every day," Chambers said, lending advice in the matter of water conservation. "Follow the schedules, don't water more than you need to, and buy plants for your yard that are drought tolerant." The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Oil Spill Quote of the Day
Today's Oil Spill Quote of the Day features Elizabeth Griffin Wilson, one of our very own scientists:
From yesterday's Guardian:
Some 1,020 sea turtles were caught up in the spill, according to figures (pdf) today – an ominous number for an endangered species. Wildlife officials collected 177 sea turtles last week – more than in the first two months of the spill and a sizeable share of the 1,020 captured since the spill began more than three months ago. Some 517 of that total number were dead and 440 were covered in oil, according to figures maintained the Deepwater Horizon response team.

New Report: Why Healthy Oceans Need Sea Turtles
Imagine a healthy, beautiful ocean. Now remove the sea turtles, one by one.
Not so healthy anymore, is it?
That's the gist of the report we released today, Why Healthy Oceans Need Sea Turtles: The Importance of Sea Turtles to Marine Ecosystems. The report describes the vital roles sea turtles play in the ecosystem, and how the Gulf of Mexico oil spill is further threatening their ability to fulfill those roles.
As the report outlines, sea turtles provide the following important ecosystem services:
- Maintain healthy seagrass beds through grazing
- Maintain healthy coral reefs by removing sponges when foraging
- Facilitate nutrient cycling by supplying a concentrated source of high-protein nutrients when nesting
- Balance marine food webs by maintaining jellyfish populations
- Provide a food source for fish by carrying around barnacles, algae and other similar organisms
- Increase the rate of nutrient recycling on the ocean floor by breaking up shells while foraging
- Provide habitat for small marine organisms as well as offer an oasis for fish and seabirds in the open ocean

Fact of the Day: Hawksbill Sea Turtle
Today's Fact of the Day is about the beautiful hawksbill sea turtle.
This sea turtle has a particularly breathtaking carapace (or top shell). Unfortunately, as a result, hawksbill sea turtles were poached as the main source of tortoise shell goods for hundreds of years and are now in danger of extinction.
Unlike other sea turtles, when hawksbills are on land they walk using diagonally opposite flippers, rather than moving their front flippers in tandem as they do when they swim.
Check out what you can do to help the hawksbill sea turtles or browse for other ocean facts. (And of course, check back tomorrow for another FOTD!)

Dissecting the Cause of Death in the Gulf
Warning: what follows isn't exactly light reading.
The New York Times reported yesterday on the complicated task of performing necropsies -- i.e., animal autopsies -- on sea turtles and other creatures that have been found dead in the Gulf of Mexico since the spill started.
It's not easy to determine the cause of death of these creatures. Of the 1,978 birds, 463 turtles and 59 marine mammals found dead in the Gulf since April 20th, few show visible signs of oil contamination.
And in the case of sea turtles, a more familiar culprit may be at fault: shrimp trawls and other commercial fishing gear that scoop up turtles as bycatch and prevent them from going to the surface to breathe.
Here's a simplified breakdown of how the veterinary investigators begin to determine the cause of death:

Fact of the Day: Green Sea Turtle
Time for another FOTD!
Green sea turtles are born only two inches long and will grow to about three feet by adulthood. On average, young green sea turtles grow more than 11 pounds a year by feeding on sea grasses and algae -- yum!

Oil Spill Quote of the Day
From yesterday's Examiner:
"The spill was tragically timed for sea turtles that are nesting in the Gulf right now," said Miyoko Sakashita, oceans director for the Center [for Biological Diversity]. "Newly hatched sea turtles are swimming out to sea and finding themselves in a mucky, oily mess. News that BP has blocked efforts to rescue trapped sea turtles before they're burned alive in controlled burns is unacceptable."

New Report: The Oil Spill's Impact on Sea Turtles
Today we released a new report that describes the potential effects of the oil spill on endangered sea turtles in the Gulf of Mexico.
Sea turtles can become coated in oil or inhale volatile chemicals when they surface to breathe, swallow oil or contaminated prey, and swim through oil or come in contact with it on nesting beaches.
As of yesterday, 32 oiled sea turtles have been found in the Gulf of Mexico and more than 320 sea turtles have been found dead or injured since the spill began April 20.
While some dead and injured sea turtles are found by search crews or wash up on the beach, some never will. Ocean currents often carry them out to sea where they can sink or be eaten by predators.
Our report shows that the ongoing oil spill can have the following impacts on sea turtles:

With this week's Best of we propose you ten restaurants' projects + 1, following a path from the northern landscape in front of a restaurant in Copenhagen to a space inspired by a photo series of the misty Death Valley.
November 21st 2014, Väven opens to the public: the cultural center, designed by Snøhetta and White Arkitekter and visually inspired by the birch trees typical of the city of Umeå, weaves multiple cultural programs and activities together.
The "musing" envisaged by Diller Scofidio + Renfro forces the spectator into the installation, stretched out beneath a suspended ceiling like a mechanic on a trolley-jack under a car.
Audemars Piguet called upon Mathieu Lehanneur to design its areas at Art Basel Miami: the result is a stand that replicates the Swiss valleys mineral DNA suspended in the air.
LCA architetti designed his office in the North of Italy: a building with a wooden frame structure, designed according to the principles of sustainable architecture, in which interior opaque and transparent boxes follow each other rhythmically.
Placing the Fountain House in a really central area of Montreal, raumlaborberlin wishes to re-address the notion of the public good by celebrating free access to it.
Completed by Iredale Pedersen Hook architects, the Nannup Holiday house forms part of a wandering path from Perth to Nannup. While the exterior dialogues with the numerous fallen trees, the interior is revealed through a sequence of "growth rings" coded and extruded in relation to the building program.
The frescoes on the walls and ceiling of the Chapel can now be admired in all their splendour, as a result of numerous and exemplary restorations, but in particular thanks to the work carried out by Osram and Carrier in recent years to improve the conditions of light and air.
Inaugurated on November 16 and designed by Renzo Piano, the new home for the Harvard Art Museums provides greater access to the collections for students, faculty, scholars, and the public.
For this house in north-center of Portugal, Filipe Pina + Maria Inês Costa combine the rural and the urban lifestyle, clearly separating the existent stone ruins from the new construction.
Ignacio Evangelista's After Schengen photo series is about photographing some of the old border crossing points that still exist abandoned and out of order, in some states of European Union.
The "fixed performances", "living paintings", and natural size photographic reproductions, the exclusive object of the solo show devoted to Luigi Ontani, and curated by Giacinto Di Pietrantonio at the GAMeC in Bergamo and titled, with singular irony puns being the formulas of his circus.

Biggest Loser Families Recap: NYC Makeovers
The competition on the Biggest Loser Families should be heating up, but last night's show was surprisingly free of drama. Well, not quite. There was Vicky's moment of paralyzing fear, verging on a tantrum, during the physical challenge, but even that little episode struck me as placid. Maybe because everyone involved, blue teammates included, seemed "over" Vicky's antics.
This week all the contestants were treated to a makeover in NYC. Their trip to the Big Apple included new hair fancy and flattering styles. The highlights from the salon: Vicky dyed her hair red and Ed got some highlights himself. Then all five contestants were treated to a shopping trip at Macy's lightly supervised by season-four winner of Project Runway Christian Siriano (didn't he often comment on how he loved the super-skinny models?). This was followed by a "live" reveal on The Tyra Banks Show, complete with a reunion with a friend, spouse, sibling, or parent. The reunions, full of lots of emotion, were pretty sweet watch.
Upon returning back to the ranch, the five remaining players competed in a physical challenge with a two-week spa vacation as the prize. The contestants had to wedge themselves in bottomless boxes suspended 12 to 15 feet above a pool of water. Vicky was first to call uncle, but refused to drop into the water. Heba, Ed, and Renee eventually followed dropping easily and gleefully into the water below. Michelle won the prize and was a disappointed to have her victory celebration marred by Vicky's attention-stealing freak-out.
To see who was eliminated and how they look today read more.
Since the contestants spent much of the week away from their trainers, Bob and Jillian packed in some serious workouts in two days' time. So it wasn't a huge surprised that the amount of weight-loss in all the players was low. Renee and Vicky both lost four pounds, Michelle lost five, while Heba lost seven but her husband Ed only lost three. Ed and Renee fell below the yellow line, and there were no surprises in the voting. Teams voted on their party lines, and Renee was sent home and she looks great. She is a mom with grown kids and a tremendous amount of energy.
Watch this video to see how she looks today.
Who do you think will make it to the final three? Did you see the surprise ending twist? Viewers will get to pick the third contestant to make it to the final three. Who do you think will win the whole shebang?

This hotel with 2 swimming pools and a night club has direct access to the beach, a 2-minute walk away. It offers a spa including massage treatments, a thalassotherapy centre and a show twice a week.
Score from 105 reviews Good
The outside door to the balcony - on the first floor didn't lock so anyone could get in. A hinge was broken on a closet, the wall needed painting. The sink in the bathroom couldn't be turned off completely.
Great pools, nice room, beachfront OK
The food was bland and industrial. The hot buffet items were usually cold and the ice cream was warm. The wine was foul, not surprising seeing as it was dispensed from spigots.
The beach and the pools
For tunisian standards, the staff of this hotel are ok. but more effort need to be put in this area.
very poor and old for all.
staff are nice and helpful
location & price
The staff are really rude! One example, I have ordered a quiet room because I am suffering from severe anxiety, However, I was given the loudest room and I had to stay awake for 5 nights after they tricked me into paying the whole amount!
Very friendly and helpful staff, good food, Nice Hotel
Only blankets in bed
No hospitality at all. Staff are extremely rude
This is not 4 stars hotel may be 2 would be fair
the staff the room the cleanning
the breakfas
Security staff were helpful always.
Really I was unsatisfied I had facing many issues, room was completely bad i had requested to have a king size bed from the beginning and I ensured that cause it was my honeymoon I was surprise to found separate beds, A/C covering was broken as attached pictures mentioned, 2nd day my wife was sick I called the receptionist at night 03:00 am to provide me a water they told me that ''we don't have water, bar is closed, no room services if you want take my bottle' I went down I didn't found him on the desk he was busy by chatting in the corner, I will never come again.
location, close to beach and restaurants and amenities. Nice restaurant and friendly staff.
all the hotels in Tunisia are overrated, the rooms are clean but in need of decor.
quick check in and check out
the bar outside is where you need to go to get a pool towel. what they don't tell you is the bar keeps irregular hrs and so you cant get a pool towel when you need one. I would suggest bringing the one they give you in the bathroom and then asking for a new one at the front desk. The food was less than average - no variety. They give you this card that you are supposed to leave on the table which then reserves the table for you during your stay. No one told this and the staff kept harassing us for the card - rather unnecessary. The cocktails were horrible, worst I have ever drank. Not sure if its just due to being there in an offseason for tourists or what
Pool, grounds
Staff, room
almost evrey things
some time food isnt good

Overall User Rating: JT Eaton 182B 8 1/2" x 5 1/4" Double Jeopardy Mouse Glue Board - 2 / Pack ( 5.0 stars from 5 reviews )
in my apartment, we have a slight roach problem due to changing of the plumbing. needed a cheap, reliable, and non-toxic solution. i bought 75 for less than $20 and they arrived the next day, thats fast. the glue is not as sticky as the other companies, which is a plus. i dont need everything accidentally getting stuck and not being able to remove it. Well the 1st stay i put the traps down, i was impressed with the outcome. i highly recommend these and 75 for less than $20, you cant go wrong. Last for each trap, its splits into 2! so i got 150 traps!
Angelo F. Posted on 08/20/2014
We have been using this product for several years to monitor insect activity and found it to be a wonderful product. We highly recommend these glue boards.
Ralph E. Posted on 11/22/2013
We live out in the country, so we do have various animals. We have caught various tiny bugs, spiders and also mice on the glue boards. But the thing that we caught that I was most great full for was a five foot snake. It could not get unstuck for the glue board. I was very satisfied.
Shirley E. from Higher Ground Products Posted on 08/10/2013
There are 72 double traps in this box. If they were split they would last longer however I was more than happy to leave them together not to have to touch the critter. The glue is sticky and works well.

Roles and Functions:
Assessment of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Report
NSIAD-93-200: Published: Jul 15, 1993. Publicly Released: Aug 17, 1993.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-3504
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff's report on the armed forces' roles, missions, and functions, focusing on the: (1) methodology used; (2) potential for eliminations, reductions, consolidations, and realignments; and (3) obstacles to reductions in overlapping military capabilities.
GAO found that: (1) the Chairman's report did not sufficiently analyze and identify whether the services' aggregate capabilities exceed post-cold war requirements, recommend significant reductions in overlapping functions, or identify the potential for further changes involving air interdiction capabilities, peacekeeping, and disaster relief; (2) although the report's methodology and focus were limited due to a lack of adequate information and short evaluation period, most of the recommendations were sound; (3) reducing unnecessary overlaps in the military services' roles and functions will require aggressive leadership and in-depth analysis because of the services' broadly defined combat functions; and (4) additional opportunities exist to address overlapping capabilities and improve efficiency including reexamining air capability requirements, reducing intelligence operations, and developing a joint review of command, control, communications, and computer systems.
Matter for Congressional Consideration
Status: Closed - Not Implemented
Comments: Congress, rather than amending the Goldwater-Nichols Act as GAO recommended, established an independent commission to examine the roles and missions of the armed forces.
Matter: If Congress intends for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff's report on roles, missions, and functions, to include examinations of aggregate levels of capability needed to accomplish specific functions and missions to meet national security requirements, it should consider amending the act to specifically require such examinations.

Transsexual Escorts
A person is described as a transsexual ( TS ) when the individual identifies with a gender that is not the sex that was assigned at birth. Some people find they have extreme discomfort when dressed as their assigned gender and believe they were meant to be the opposite sex. There has been a stigma attached to transsexualism at various times in history and that stigma remains in many areas of the world, often based on culture or religion. However, transsexuals have become better known since the late 20th In addition, transsexual escorts are more popular than ever.
History of Transsexuals
Throughout history, various cultures have assigned traits, characteristics, and attributes to a specific gender. This learned behavior is transmitted via the culture to children as they grow up and take on the roles assigned to their gender by society. However, throughout history, there have been those individuals who have a strong belief that they were assigned the wrong sex at birth and believe their psychological gender is opposite the physical sex.

During the demonstration of clairvoyance, the medium will pick out people in the congregation, one at a time, and will pass on information that is being given to him/her by the spirit people. This is evidence to prove their survival. The types of evidence given are names, places they have lived, work, hobbies, personality, memories known only to the spirit person and the recipient, and other information. The more specific the information, the better is the evidence. If you receive a message, you should only answer the medium with a yes or no. If you tell them anything, it may be something the spirit person wishes to say, and then the opportunity for giving that evidence is lost. You will often find the chairperson instructing the congregation not to feed the medium, and this is what they are referring to, not saying that mediums should be starved!
Every demonstration of mediumship has to be always regarded as an experiment, as specific results can not be promised. However we do not ask you to be gullible! Be objective in assessing evidence, but do come to the meeting with an open mind, and with love in your heart. Mediums are susceptible to vibrations and find it harder to work in a hostile atmosphere. If you do not get the evidence at your first visit, give spiritualism a chance, and come again. You will always be welcome.

I love the feel of this! It's so silky and smooth, and feels wonderful going on. This is my HG of eyecreams. I always get the 1oz. and save a lil $.
Refreshes my under eye, doesn't leave an oily residue. I'm not sure it does any de-puffing or removing of dark circles. Basically, it just makes the skin less dry but doesn't alter it. Too expensive for it not to do anything else.
Have had it a few days and not impressed For the price it's a disappointment The consistency is great I have sensitive skin and had no issues Unless something miraculously changes I doubt I will try it again puffiness has not changed and little if any change in dark circles
I have never had a problem with sensitive skin but this cream my eyes burn! Not just the skin but my actual eyes would water and sting, even when I was careful about keeping the cream away from the open eye. It also had poor absortion. Would not recommend.

I completely forgot that I ever used this product!! It took me a while to remember that I owned it once upon a time!!... I can remember that it was a good product, it did it's job and really helped as a primer.. the consistency was a really lovely sheer weightless cream that really helped with my puffy morning eyes..
I did switch to Origins Ginzing eyecream because I felt that my clinique wasn't showing enough results for me.. and the origins eye cream really did... that's why I switched.. The clinique was good. I just needed a bit more bam for my eyes..
This is an expensive eye cream that doesn't work for me. It is a gel-based eye cream which is easy to spread but hard to absord by your skin. It smushes my eyeliner and mascara. The worst part is it is not hydrating and does not help with reducing puffiness and fine lines. I am so upset that i quickly replace it after one week.
Clinique - All About Eyes is incredibly expensive and did not provide any noticeable results. There was no stinging or harsh reactions to this product: it felt like gooey water. Also, I'm generally not a fan of pot containers. I will not repurchase this, as putting $1.00 Vaseline or my face moisturizer under my eyes would yield similar results.

I have pretty bad under eye circles, and I know that no product can get rid of dark circles, but some eye creams can make a small difference, so I thought I would give this a try, even though it was kind of expensive.
The jar is cute, but very unhygienic. The cream itself is very light, and it has no offensive smell. It feels very smooth and velvety, and when you put it on your under eye skin feels very comforting.
However, this feeling soon subsides. There was no difference in the appearance of my dark circles, and it didn't really hydrate. It didn't sting my eyes, but I've never had any problems with stinging.
I won't buy this again, because it really didn't do anything. And for $48, it was a waste of money.
Just turned 30 and thought I should start using an eye cream. I find this really hydrates the eye area without feeling greasy and works well under makeup. I'm not sure that it reduces puffiness or dark shadows as it claims, and I don't like the packaging, so I deduced lippies.
- no stinging or itching
- very hydrating
- not greasy
- wears well under makeup (makes eye primer go on smoother!)
- don't like pot packaging (too easy to drop and spill)
- little reduction in puffiness
- no reduction in under eye circles

I'm typically not a fan of Clinique.. I do not have sensitive skin and I typically find products that are more effective because I can ignore the hypoallergenic factor. However, I received a sample of this. I can honestly say that I can see an almost immediate difference in my under eye area with this cream. It decreases puffiness yet hydrates. Lines not as prominent. It's really not bad.
