Dana on Marketing Messages: Changing Role Of Print Buyers
Somewhere around 2009, we experienced the birth of MSPs—Marketing Services Providers. That date sticks in my mind, because in November of that year I held a dinner meeting of print buyers here in Boston, as the recession was hitting them smack in the face. The buyers working for agencies were particularly angry that night; many had literally just lost their jobs. We talked about how the printing industry was changing. Specifically, we discussed the printer-as-MSP model (they were against it).
It didn't occur to us then that we were entering an extended period of dramatic change for print buyers, too. In the four years since then, I've watched the role of corporate buyer evolve. It's not done yet.
Last summer I conducted a survey, along with fellow industry consultant John Zarwan, to try and uncover what's changed vs. what hasn't in the role of the professional print buyer. With the information that 315 buyers shared with us, we learned some very significant things about who's buying print today—and what the industry needs to know in order to get in front of these people.
Who's Buying Printing Today?
If I wrote this column five or 10 years ago, I would have talked about buyers in corporate communications and publications departments. They pretty much "majored" in print buying. Their roles would've been defined by their print-centricity, and they'd have been spending most of their time on print-related responsibilities.
Changes in how we communicate with one another, with customers, with prospects and with consumers, as well as the widespread popularity of all sorts of digital media, have impacted professional print buyers in lots of ways. Instead of working mostly in communications departments, we find that a third of print buyers are in marketing, a third are in purchasing or procurement and the final third are distributed among a variety of corporate units, like creative, media, sales, communications/publications, general management and administration.

Thai director Apichatpong Weerasethakul has made a career out of directing movies that seem like dense visual riddles, matching poetry with mysterious cinematic designs. However, while his earlier features often felt primarily energizing as intellectual exercises rather than creative pursuits, his latest work -- "Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives" -- takes the identical approach into the delightful realm of fantasy.
The story begins with the image of an ox, the first of many animal references that deepen its mythological dimensions. Over the course of the nearly two-hour excursion, the ghost of a man shows up reincarnated as an ape, and a catfish apparently performs cunnilingus on a woman in the jungle. Those moments provide the strangest diversions, but "Uncle Boonmee" replicates that weirdness with a melding of poetic and comic forces, yielding an experience defined by sheer ingenuity.
Weerasethakul's titular character is a middle-aged man living in the forest and dying from an illness. One evening, during a visit from his nephew, Boonmee also gets met by the ghost of his long-dead wife and missing son, that aforementioned monkey man. They discuss the sense of displacement that death brings them, marrying the strange tone to seriously lyrical observations of mortality. But Weerasethakul doesn't take the scene any more seriously than we do: Another living person joins the table and takes in the eclectic group, concluding, "I feel like I'm the strange one here."
The magic of "Uncle Boonmee" is that it makes all viewers feel like the strange ones. Like Weerasethakul's other movies, the imagery contains lushness even though the context never moves far beyond impenetrably difficult rationalizations. But just as Weerasethakul's "Syndromes and a Century" used its full two hours to reach a sense of full-bodied purpose -- time was its greatest asset -- "Uncle Boonmee" lights up with marvelous imagery and invention from its very first scene. Weerasethakul deals with folklore, memory and death in a wonderfully playful manner that's moderately accessible and cryptic at the same time. Guided by forces as otherworldly as his plot, the filmmaker turns narrative confusion into his greatest conceit.

The continued critical acclaim and box office success of District 9 proves that audiences are comfortable with aliens as metaphor for apartheid. So the Overthinkers tackle other cultural artifacts that have used aliens as metaphor for something in the human condition. For only by stepping outside of ourselves … can we see ourselves … as we are.
Which is your favorite "aliens as metaphor" piece of pop culture? And did we miss one of the classics? Sound off in the comments!
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (Suburban Conformity) (Perich)
Five decades behind us now, Don Siegel's Invasion of the Body Snatchers provides film students of all stripes with plenty of grist to sift through. A secret conspiracy subverts a small California town. Unsympathetic creatures from outer space murder everyone and replace them with "pod people." Only one paranoid doctor knows the truth.
No two critics can settle on what this film is About. Some insist it's an allegory for the growing presence of Communist subversion in the U.S. (our collective revulsion at the McCarthy hearings makes it easy for us to forget that this was actually happening, albeit not on so large a scale). Others take the opposite tack: that it's a metaphor for the spreading tide of McCarthyism, turning entire communities against lone individuals. Neither of these answers really satisfy, though: contemporary films, either for or against anti-Communist alertness, tended toward a militaristic, confrontational tone (see On the Waterfront, or High Noon, or The Manchurian Candidate, etc). What makes Body Snatchers so chilling is its subtle, creeping horror.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers, ultimately, is about the fear of growing up.
Consider the theme through the lens of our protagonists, Dr. Miles Bennell and Becky Driscoll. They romanced as children but married other people. Having since divorced, their first conversation in the film has a flirtatious, playful tone to it. Miles jokes that they're in the same club, except "I'm paying dues while you collect them."
Miles and Becky are a man and a woman, attractive and attracted to each other. But they're also both divorced. They have problems with commitment. These problems don't make them any less attractive to each other, however. In fact, that freedom is a source of whimsy – an irony that they recognize in their first interaction.
Later in the film, Miles discusses the growing epidemic – manifested so far only by a few people's assertions that their family have been replaced by impostors – with a psychiatrist, Dr. Kaufman. Kaufman explains these fears away as "an epidemic mass hysteria [caused by] worry about what's going on in the world, probably." Epidemics have been around since recorded history, but it took the young science of psychiatry to introduce us to the notion of mental epidemics. Contagious diseases spread through close living quarters, but contagious fears can only spread through close thinking. For a mass hysteria, everyone affected must already be thinking alike.
Consider also how the process of pod-replacement affects people: it makes them emotionless. They're not necessarily sinister (except insofar as they want to kill you and parade a friend around who looks like you). They don't have passion, fear or anxiety. The suburbs of the housing boom that followed World War II have often been interpreted as a concrete manifestation of a desire for placidity: not as loud and rushed as the cities, not as cold and demanding as a country estate. And the alien invasion starts in a small town, not a city (where population density would logically make assimilation easier).
As the evidence of this alien conspiracy begins to mount, Miles and Becky flee the town. They hide in Miles's office from the police. During this time, Miles gives a speech about how he's been watching people become emotionless for years. "I've seen how people have allowed their humanity to drain away. Only it happened slowly instead of all at once. They didn't seem to mind. […] We harden our hearts, grow callous. Only when we have to fight to stay human do we realize how precious it is to us."
If this wasn't conclusive proof of the movie's message as a warning against social conformity, consider the movie's chilling climax. Having taken shelter in an abandoned mine at the outskirts of town, Miles and Becky try for the last dash to freedom. Miles takes Becky in his arms to kiss her … and panics when she does not respond. Her kiss, passionate and flirtatious in the beginning of the film, has become mechanical. Before she was a childhood sweetheart he was taking out on a date. Now she's his fiancee ("I want your children," she told him before they fled). She has gone from Girlfriend to Wife, and Mile's horror is complete.
"I never knew fear until I kissed Becky," he says.
Only then, the purposeless dash from the aliens. The horror that leads him to stumble into traffic, trying to get the drivers' attention. And finally (in the film's intended ending), Miles pointing directly at the camera, at the hordes of suburban theatergoers watching his exploits in the anonymizing dark. He doesn't tell them to take up arms or to keep watching the skies. That would imply there's still a fight to be won. He tells them, "You're next!"

Chiefs' Fisher Feeling Welcome in Kansas City
KANSAS CITY (AP) - Eric Fisher is already making quite an impression in Kansas City.
The first overall pick in Thursday night's NFL draft flew into town on Friday, and was met by numerous fans at the airport. He signed autographs and even did a few TV interviews.
The whirlwind continued at the Chiefs' practice facility, where he was introduced to the coaching staff and some of his new teammates and then presented to reporters.
Fisher says he's willing to play anywhere new coach Andy Reid puts him, and his priorities are helping the team win a Super Bowl and helping his mom enjoy retirement. He says he's finally convinced Heidi Langegger to retire after 33 years working for Volkswagen.

text: 000 FXUS63 KAPX 271719 AFDAPX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Gaylord MI 119 PM EDT FRI MAY 27 2016 .UPDATE... Issued at 1133 AM EDT Fri May 27 2016 Upper level ridge axis extends thru the Great Lakes region late this morning. Surface pattern and thus surface winds are rather weak and ill-defined attm. Dissipation of dense fog has had to rely solely on diurnal mixing...which has happened for the most part. Latest vsbl satellite does show a couple of small areas of linger fog...but vsbys are quickly improving. Temps have already popped into the mid 70s to around 80 degrees across much of Nrn Lwr Michigan...but remain in the 60s across Ern Upr Michigan where the fog has lingered the longest. Looking upstream across Wisconsin and Illinois...a few areas of convection continue to fire and gradually push northward thru these states. Strengthening low level jet poking into Srn Wisconsin is providing some added support and moisture transport to ongoing convection over that region. NAM12...RAP13 and latest HRRR all redevelop convection over our SW cwa to varying degrees with slight differences in timing this afternoon. Convection then spread N/NE thru much of our CWA...especially across Nrn Lwr Michigan...during late afternoon and early evening. NAM boosts MUCAPES to around 2000 J/kg this afternoon...while the RAP only shows around 1500 J/kg for the afternoon. Speed shear actually diminishes later this afternoon and evening as upper level winds weaken and low level winds actually strengthen as the eastern edge of the low level jet leans into Michigan. Going forecast is handling the situation well...introducing chance pops across our SW CWA after 18Z and then spreading chances northward thru much of Nrn Lwr michigan after 21Z. An isold strong/svr storms is once again not out of the question later this afternoon and evening during peak diurnal instability combined with some modest shear. && .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 339 AM EDT Fri May 27 2016 High impact weather potential: dense fog northern sections this morning. Isolated svr t-storms again possible in northern lower this afternoon/evening. Front has lifted north of eastern upper (noting 60f dew points even ene of the Sault). Front is progged to settle back into northern Chippewa Co early this morning (aided by the cold waters of Superior), then hang out there thru the upcoming day. Our airmass is largely unchanged from yesterday (if anything we should be a touch warmer today). However, something of a 500mb shortwave ridge develops over our heads today, embedded in the broad sw flow aloft. Will this pose an obstacle to seeing deep convection? Not really. Today...fog/stratus has become extensive near and north of M-68, and a dense fog advisory has been posted in response. Far northern lower mi should start to break up shortly after 8 am, eastern upper will likely take a couple of hours longer. To the south, ground fog is present but much thinner, and will burn off quickly as cloud cover is limited otherwise. Presently we are in a lull re: low-level southerly flow and associated warm/moist advection. Currently our 1000-850mb winds are westerly. That will change during the day, with winds backing south this morning and increasing this afternoon. 1000-850mb winds will increase to near 25kt over central Lake MI by late in the day; that area sits at the nose of the developing low level jet. Cirrus from upstream convection continues to thin as it tries to push into northern MI. Don`t anticipate any obstacles (south of M-68) to strong diurnal heating and another toasty day. Temps will warm into low/mid 80s in much of northern lower, and into the 70s in eastern upper. Some warming will be seen in the 700-500mb layer aloft, but this will be insufficient to keep a lid on things. The Nam is again too juicy down low, and is thus overly unstable (and consequently a little too fast to develop/expand convection). Instability will be higher downstate, where dew points are in the low/mid 60s. This juicier air will creep northward with time, especially into nw lower MI in the afternoon where southerly flow is a bit stronger. Mlcapes will reach the 1-1.5k j/kg in nw lower MI this afternoon, and eventually n central lower and down by Saginaw Bay toward evening. Will keep the morning/early afternoon dry, then prog sct TSRA after 2 pm, starting in nw lower and expanding n and e with time. Will not bring pops quite as far north as the Sault, nor quite as far east as APN. The increase in low-level winds will actually reduce 0-6km shear as the afternoon proceeds, from near 40kt at 18z to 20-25kt at 00z. Instability and shear levels both seem to be at, or very slightly less than, yesterdays values. That would suggest that an isolated svr threat is once again present. CIPS analogs are much more impressed with downstate locales, but definitely extend a risk north into northern lower. This risk will carry into the evening hours, before heating is lost. Tonight...low level flow increases as pressure gradient tightens between high pressure off the east coast and low pressure in the central plains. This will support multiple clusters of shra/tsra lifting nne across the mid/upper MS valley and western lakes. We will be on the eastern portion of the developing warm conveyor belt and associated convection, and thus pops will decrease somewhat from w to e. However, still anticipate likely pops or better just about everywhere, with the OSC/Tawas area the possible exception. Precip will be moving fairly quickly northward, which will limit heavy precip potential. And any risk for strong/svr storms diminishes by overnight as the BL stabilizes. Min temps upper 50s to mid 60s. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 339 AM EDT Fri May 27 2016 (5/28)Saturday...Models still seem to be handling the details of the upcoming days poorly. A sfc low in the Midwest will move to the north into the Upper Mississippi Valley. This looks to move a warm front north of the forecast area, by 00z. Coupled with the somewhat diffluent flow at 500 mb over Michigan, will expect that showers and thunderstorms will break out, mainly after 15z as the warm front moves north and the sun is able to destabilize the atmosphere. after 00z, it looks like much drier air will move into the region and with the diurnal heating gone, the showers should diminish. Shear parameters look to be less than today, so think that the severe threat should be a little less than the last day or two. (5/29)Sunday...Models have a decent 500 mb trough bearing down on the Upper Great Lakes with the decent cold front associated with it. with the heat and humidity at the sfc and the 500 mb 40-50 knot jet streak moving into the region, will need to watch the thunderstorms. If this came through a little later in the afternoon, it would be more impressive with the added instability. However, the main rain looks to be done by 21z with some showers following, then cooling and drying overnight as the 500 mb flow turns more zonal. Extended (Monday through Thursday)...Monday starts off with zonal flow across the northern part of the CONUS, which should keep us dry. Tuesday, however, looks to bring some 500 mb ridging into the Upper Great Lakes. The only question will be how amplified the ridge will be. The ECMWF solutions is pretty amplified, with a much deeper cut off low (500 mb) dropping into the N Plains. The latest GFS is beginning to trend toward the ECMWF idea, as the 00z run shows a stronger low than the 18z run did. Which, if this is the case, then the ridging ahead of the low should become more amplified like the ECMWF. This would slow down the rain expected Tuesday that the GFS purports, and speed up the cold frontal passage on Wednesday that the ECMWF shows. Although, when looking at Thursday the ECMWF is post frontal and dry, while the GFS is pre-frontal with rain moving into the region by the afternoon. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon) Issued at 119 PM EDT Fri May 27 2016 Scattered showers and thunderstorms will redevelop this afternoon...initially around MBL and TVC and will then spread N/NE to PLN and APN later this afternoon and early evening. Areal coverage of this precip will increase thru the night and into Saturday as an area of low pressure and associated deep moisture lift northward into the Wrn Great Lakes region. Winds will remain generally from the SE under 10 kts tonight...shifting to the south on Saturday. && .MARINE... Issued at 339 AM EDT Fri May 27 2016 Winds and waves will remain below SCA criteria thru Saturday. However, southerly winds will increase somewhat tonight, especially on Lake MI. Things will become a bit on the choppy side late tonight into early Saturday as a result. Otherwise, marine fog and stratus will continue to be major issues at times, especially north of Alpena and Gd Trav Lt. Periodic showers and t-storms will also be seen, with another round expected this afternoon thru tonight. && .APX Watches/Warnings/Advisories... MI...NONE. LH...NONE. LM...NONE.

Costume Design
John Wylie
Head of Design/Tech
After the student chooses costume design they continue developing other basic skills, including costume construction, shop practices, and rendering techniques.
The third year and fourth year are focused on design and conceptual experience, both in the studio and in actual production work. Webster is one of the few undergraduate institutions where students design all of the productions. Faculty input on production work is given through mentoring relationships. Students see their designs realized on stage. They experience every facet of the design process including concept meetings, shopping, working with costume staff, fittings and technical and dress rehearsals.
This experience is vital to understanding the link between theory and practice. The combination of practical shop and stage work with conceptual work in the design studio creates a unique opportunity for the artists' professional growth.
Students also graduate with a portfolio of produced work in addition to projects.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court on Thursday sided with juice-maker Pom Wonderful in its long false-advertising dispute with Coca-Cola, a decision that could open the door to more litigation over deceptive food labeling.
The justices ruled 8-0 that Pom can go forward with a lawsuit alleging the label on a "Pomegranate Blueberry" beverage offered by Coke's Minute Maid unit is misleading because 99 percent of the drink is apple and grape juice.
Lower courts had ruled in favor of Coke because the label conforms to the law and to Food and Drug Administration rules. But the Supreme Court said the juice label may technically comply with FDA rules but may still mislead consumers for different reasons.
Justice Anthony Kennedy, who wrote the opinion, appeared to have telegraphed his position in April, when he said at oral argument that the label even misled him into thinking the drink was mostly pomegranate juice. His opinion Thursday focused on the juice's details, noting that the product contained only 0.3 percent pomegranate juice, 0.2 percent blueberry juice and 0.1 percent raspberry juice.

Kennedy said the law governing regulation of food and drug labels does not preclude a competitor from suing under a different law — the Lanham Act — for unfair competition based on false or misleading claims. He said federal food and trademark laws complement each other in the regulation of misleading labels.
Justice Stephen Breyer took no part in the case. Consistent with its usual practice, the court did not say why he had disqualified himself.
The court also rejected Coke's argument that allowing a deceptive-labeling claim would interfere with national uniformity under FDA laws. Kennedy said Congress chose to allow challenges under trademark law "to enforce a national policy to ensure fair competition."
Pom, which faces deceptive-advertising claims of its own, sued Coke in 2008 after it began losing market share to Minute Maid's "Pomegranate Blueberry Flavored Blend of 5 Juices" drink. The drink's label shows the words "Pomegranate Blueberry" in much larger type than the rest of the phrase and includes a prominent picture of large pomegranate set among other fruits.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of Coke, finding that food-labeling laws preclude private lawsuits under trademark law.
The food and beverage industry had expressed concerns that a ruling for Pom would lead to greater uncertainty about labeling requirements and lead to a flurry of new lawsuits.
In a statement, Pom's parent company Roll Global said the decision "will translate into higher assurance for consumers that the labels on beverage and food are accurate."
Coke said it would defend against Pom's lawsuit and show "that our product was not the cause of Pom's poor sales."
In a separate case, the federal government has filed a deceptive-advertising case against Pom for claiming that its pomegranate juice can treat or prevent heart disease, prostate cancer and other illnesses. The Federal Trade Commission's action is pending at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit.

This month is all about villains on Cinematical, and thankfully, October seems flush with folks who fit the bill: horror movies, often released in anticipation (if not exploitation) of Halloween, usually offer at least one person, creature or entity that qualifies as an adversary to be fled from or feared. But the sad truth is that not a whole lot of them have particularly great theme music, which brings us to this week's Cinematical Seven.
To be fair, these folks don't often have the luxury of choosing said music themselves, so if they get a crappy rock song or some kind of dumbass lullabye, it's not their fault. But after revisiting a number of classic horror series and the movie monsters they immortalized, we've put together what we think is a pretty good collection of themes that folks can and will still find scary. (And while some of this music may or may not be specifically associated with the individual character or creature, the guideline to which we held ourselves was the association of the music with that particular monster.)
Suffice it to say there are a number of other great horror movie themes, and we're just scratching the surface with a list of seven, but check our list of some of the most famous, memorable, and yeah, terrifying, with or without some dude in a mask bearing down on the bathroom door where you've found temporary safe haven.
1. Mike Oldfield "Tubular Bells" (Pazuzu, The Exorcist) – As documented in my previous Cinematical Seven, about Good Movies I Never Need to Watch Again, The Exorcist is just too damn scary for me to ever watch again (which is why I chose this comparatively harmless clip from Youtube rather than a montage of images from the film itself). But even separated from its now-iconic horror movie, the music remains dense and incredibly powerful, reminding fans and those familiar with the film there's nothing quite as creepy as the sight of some little kid spider-walking upside down – oh yeah, except having her effed-up little face spout profanity that would make a sailor blush in a disembodied, gravelly voice.
2. Harry Manfredini "Introduction to Horror" (Jason Voorhees, Friday the 13th) – Borrowing a page from Bernard Herrman's Psycho score (we'll get to that later), composer Harry Manfredini made movie history with this theme that would henceforth be associated with Jason Voorhees long after he (and his franchise) died, was reborn, died again, and was reborn yet again. For those still uncertain what those vocal cues are in the music, Manfredini has explained that he essentially took the words "kill" and "mommy," fed them through a reverb machine, and made what has become one of the most memborable pieces of music in cinema history.
3. Krzysztof Komeda/Mia Farrow "Main Title" (The Devil, Rosemary's Baby) – Okay, no jokes about Polanski, especially since this particular film is one of his true masterpieces. Mia Farrow, still a couple of years away from getting involved with Woody Allen, starred in and eventually performed the theme for this film about a mother who begins to believe her unborn child may be the progeny of no less than the Devil. There is certainly plenty in the film that gives audiences the creeps, but composer Komeda's score (along with Farrow's wispy, melancholy vocal) sets the tone for what's to come in the opening credits.
4. John Carpenter "Halloween – Theme" (Michael Myers, Halloween) – John Carpenter was a one-stop-shopping kind of filmmaker back in his heyday, not only writing and directing his films but editing and scoring them, and while he certain crafted a number of memorable movie scores during that time, Halloween is undoubtedly his most iconic. My girlfriend can't even hear it without getting freaked out, even in the middle of the day, from another room, but like the rest of the scores on this list, Carpenter's music haunts the space it inhabits and creates a feeling of impending dread that is only paid off in the nastiest of ways, justifying all of that tension and apprehension.
5. Jerry Goldsmith "Carol Anne's Theme (End Title)" (poltergeists, Poltergeist) – Jerry Goldsmith previously contributed a classic horror theme with his score for Richard Donner's Omen, but this one, not unlike Komeda's work on Rosemary's Baby, runs counter to expectations that horror movie music needs to be naturally dark or heavy to be menacing. That said, the children's chorus that sweetly and innocently provides a theme for the film's young protagonist – ironically, sort of the conduit for both its "monster" and heroine – is at once wholesome and terrifying, creating a similar sense of unease and eventually terror as the kids embody the film's themes of childhood swallowed by a mysterious and terrifying world.
6. John Williams "Main Title and First Victim" (Bruce the shark, Jaws) – John Williams is famously influenced by Wagner's leitmotif compositional structures where each character gets an individual theme, so it should have come as no surprise that he would create a theme even for the shark itself in Steven Spielberg's adaptation of Peter Benchley's novel. Stolen by countless filmmakers in subsequent films, albeit primarily for humorous purposes, the music has lost some of its impact detached from the film it came from. But in the context of that underwater opening and the sad fate of some poor skinny dipper, it's still as terrifying as the first day it made people never want to go into the water again.
7. Bernard Herrmann "Murder" (Norman Bates, Psycho) – if this isn't the most famous piece of music in movie history, then it's certainly a close second. Bernard Herrmann's entire score for the film seemed to upload directly into audiences' collective consciences in 1960 when the film was released, but it's become a source of influence and inspiration for decades to come, not the least of which because those arpeggios are almost as sharp as the knife Bates puts into his victim. A truly amazing piece of music that is just as terrifying today as the day it was released.

Expedia (Nasdaq:EXPE) has soared 25.1% to reach a current price of $57.19 per share. This morning, the company's volume is 10.6 million shares. This is 3.1 times its average daily volume. When a stock price moves up or down, watching the volume is a good way of identifying how significant that shift is. In making a decision about a potential or existing investment, valuation ratios are useful as a basis for seeing whether the stock price is too high, reasonable, or a bargain. If the price/book value ratio of a stock is high, it may indicate that the stock is expensive, while a lower ratio may indicate that the stock is a bargain. EXPE has a P/B ratio of 3.55 which shows that its share price is higher than its book value. This high share price relative to asset value is likely to indicate that the company has been earning a very high return on its assets. A weakness of the P/B value ratio is that while the price component is easily determined by looking at the stock quote, the book value component is more difficult to estimate and more open to individual interpretation and analysis. SEE: Using The Price-To-Book Ratio To Evaluate Companies
Shares of Higher One Holdings (NYSE:ONE) are currently trading at $10.06, a steep decline of 12.9%. So far today, 670,433 shares have changed hands, whereas yesterday, volume was only 140,731 shares. If a stock is trading on low volume, then there is not much interest in the stock. On the other hand, if a stock is trading on high volume, then there is a lot of interest in the stock. A wide array of ratios can be used by investors to estimate the attractiveness of a potential or existing investment and get an idea of its valuation. The price/earnings to growth (PEG) ratio can reveal value what price/earnings (P/E) ratios alone may not so that if a company has a high P/E ratio (an indication that its stock is overpriced) but its earnings are growing very quickly, the PEG ratio may reveal that the company is actually fairly valued, or perhaps even a bargain. ONE has a PEG ratio of 0.88, which is consistent with the industry average. While P/E ratios are important indicators of market value, a high P/E in and of itself is not bad because it may indicate a company whose earnings are growing very rapidly, so many investors look at the PEG ratio in order to get an idea of whether or not a particular P/E ratio is justified by underlying earnings growth.
Coinstar (Nasdaq:CSTR) is at a share price of $51.79 after a sharp decline of 12.5%. The company is currently trading a volume of 6.5 million shares. Volume indicates the level of interest that investors have in a company at its current price. A company's investment value can be estimated using valuation ratios such as the price to earnings (P/E) ratio, the price to earnings growth (PEG) ratio, the price to sales (P/S) ratio, the price to book (P/B) ratio, and the dividend yield. One of the most important estimates of stock market valuation is the price/earnings ratio (P/E ratio). The P/E ratio for CSTR is 12.7, above the industry average of 7.19. A company with a high P/E ratio will eventually have to live up to the high rating by substantially increasing its earnings, or the price will need to drop. High P/E stocks could be "growth" stocks, while low PE stocks may be "value" stocks. SEE: Can Investors Trust the P/E Ratio?
After rising 7.9%, Huron Consulting (Nasdaq:HURN) is currently trading at a share price of $33.09. With 84,166 shares changing hands so far today, the company's volume is 0.7 times its current three-month average. Price change alone is not enough to know how a stock is doing. Volume is an important secondary indicator used to confirm trends suggested by price movement. Investment valuation ratios provide investors with an estimation, albeit a simplistic one, of the value of a stock. The price/sales ratio measures a company's stock market value by its total revenues or alternatively, a company's price per share by its revenue per share. HURN's P/S ratio of 1.13 is on the high side. This could be a good sign if the share price increases. It is important to keep in mind when looking at the P/S ratio that just because a company is generating revenues, this does not mean that the company is profitable, and in the long run, profits drive stock prices.
Entertainment (NYSE:EPR) is at $45.52 per share after an increase of 7.2%. The company's volume for the morning is 190,602 shares. This is 0.8 times the average daily volume. In technical analysis, trading volume is used to determine the strength of a market indicator. Investors can make use of valuation ratios to estimate whether a stock is fairly valued. The easy-to-calculate debt ratio is helpful to investors looking for a quick take on the leverage for a company. EPR has a debt ratio of 48.1%, which is fairly low. In other words, the company is less sensitive to changes in business or interest rates since less of its cash flow is dedicated to paying off loan expenses. However, one thing to note with this ratio: it isn't a pure measure of a company's debt (or indebtedness), as it also includes operational liabilities, such as accounts payable and taxes payable.
Liquidity Services (Nasdaq:LQDT) is up 5.8% to reach a current price of $43.56 per share. The company's volume is currently 263,988 shares for the day, on pace to reach yesterday's volume of 500,043 shares. Volume is an important indicator in technical analysis as it is used to measure the worth of a market move. If the markets have made a strong price move either up or down the perceived strength of that move depends on the volume for that period. The higher the volume during that price move the more significant the move. Understanding investment valuation ratios allows an investor to assess the true value of an individual stock. To a large degree, the debt-equity (D/E) ratio provides another vantage point on a company's leverage position, in this case, comparing total liabilities to shareholders' equity, as opposed to total assets in the debt ratio. LQDT's debt-equity ratio of 17% is on the low end. Companies with low D/E ratios are more attractive to investors because they are better able to protect their business interests in times of decline. The D/E ratio percentage provides a much more dramatic perspective on a company's leverage position than the debt ratio percentage.
Amazon.com (Nasdaq:AMZN) has risen 5.8% and is currently trading at $232.80 per share. So far today, the company's volume is six million shares. Volume is an important indicator because it indicates how significant a price shift is. While investment valuation ratios are useful tools in estimating the attractiveness of an investment, remember that it is important to look at a company's historical performance and compare the company ratios with its competitors and industry overall. The price/book value ratio is calculated by dividing the current stock price by the company's book value per share. The P/B ratio for AMZN is 14.42, indicating that the stock is trading for more than its book value. This implies that investors expect management to create more value from a given set of assets and/or that the market value of the firm's assets is significantly higher than their accounting value. Users need to be careful when applying this ratio though, as it is more useful for industrial companies that have a lot of tangible assets than it is for technology or consumer product companies that may not have much in the way of hard assets. SEE: Investment Valuation Ratios: Price/Book Value Ratio
The Bottom Line The nature of the market is such that stocks will have good days and bad days. It is important to weigh current activity against historical performance when making any investment decisions. Keep in mind that all these ratios should be compared against historical numbers and industry information in order to get a more complete picture.

A letter from Brenda Harcourt in Kenya
May 30, 2010
My three years in Kenya are just about to mark the mid-point. It is hard to believe that I have been here that long. I thought it might be fun to reflect on what this last year and a half have been like.
Our journeys as new mission workers started with training in Canada and then in Louisville. There were lots of us that were preparing to go to different places and so each of us had our stories of where we had been and where God was now calling us to. It was exciting and scary at the same time, and there were lots of questions and lots of answers to questions we didn't even know we should be asking.
The call that I had was one that was semifamiliar to me. I had been doing much of the work over the years for our presbytery partnership and so I was moving into familiar territory with folks I was used to working with. Part of my responsibility would be to work with many presbyteries but doing much of the same work: training of pastors, evangelists, elders, deacons, Sunday school teachers and any other groups that wanted training events.
The first year consisted of getting settled and the hardest and most challenging task was trying to get a work permit. You are not allowed to work or do just about anything without a work permit, and so I spent lots of time writing and delivering sermons, preparing lectures, designing workshops and making contacts. And then I found out that immigration officials even considered that work and so had to be very careful about crossing the line.
Finally, after almost 11 months, I was granted a work permit and given permission to begin the work that I was called to do.
I continually feel blessed that God has called me to Kenya. The experiences I have had here are so life-changing and bring a sense of "making a difference" in people's lives. It happens in other places but it is so evident here. Each challenge that is placed before me becomes an achievement or a growth experience.
We have designed and carried out a "Youth Rally" which included our Young Adult Volunteers (YAVs) who are here for the year in Kenya. We brought them to the youth of Imenti North Presbytery, and they stayed for the weekend and interacted with each other to answer questions and to see that we really have much in common but also have lots to share with each other. It was so well received and was evaluated as one of the highlights of the YAV orientation and an experience that the Kenyans want to repeat every year. I think it will be difficult for them when we take it to a different location next year because Imenti North wants to host it again.
I helped to coordinate and lead a pastor/spouse retreat on keeping a Sabbath and celebrating relationships. This retreat took almost nine months to plan and then to implement. Reading and doing research and planning and coordinating with some leadership in the States that would come to help teach the different segments became a real challenge but it was well worth every minute we put into it. Sometimes we forget how much planning and preparation goes into putting things together in such a way that the experience is worthwhile and educational. The retreat lasted five days and included Bible study, case studies, group discussions, one-on-one prayer and discernment walks, relaxation and soul searching. Two trainers were brought from the United States, and a presbytery there that is in partnership with three presbyteries paid for most of the expenses for them to come and the costs involved in the retreat. The evaluations were overwhelmingly positive and suggested that we do it on a regional basis. That is being discussed and we are looking at locations and possible ways to fund and have that happen.
I spent many hours renting a vehicle and traveling around to sites looking at possible locations for training events in the future; expenses are always a challenge. I try to conduct as much as we can in local churches to keep the costs down, but when folks are so close to home it is a challenge; they are pulled away for many things and so continuity is difficult to maintain.
The biggest challenge is finding resources to use for workshops. Books continue to be very expensive and not readily available and internet is difficult at times to be able to download information. There are a lot of people with skills that are very helpful, and so I spend time connecting people with situations. In fact, many of the upcoming events are ones in which I am doing some of the teaching but I do lots more coordinating and finding individuals that have the skills to do the workshops that churches and presbyteries would like to have.
A women's retreat which I held in my home to help keep costs down was such an incredible experience. It was a time of sharing both tears and laughter. They shared their stories, and we talked about women and being empowered and what that meant for them. We talked about our commonness and our differences. We talked about traditional roles and trying to break the molds that have been in place for hundreds of years. Each time I meet one of the women who participated they want to know when we will do one again.
I enjoy being in Meru which is about a four-hour drive from Nairobi, but being four hours away from the capital and where lots of things are more readily available is also a challenge. Folks in Nairobi sometimes don't understand that it takes a day to get something accomplished that can get taken care of in a matter of hours in Nairobi. Patience is a gift I am slowly trying to learn. Electricity and internet sometimes are down for many hours every day, and so it is difficult to get information out. Many times I have to go to a cyber café to try to send information. Without a vehicle that involves extra expenses for hiring a taxi to pick me up and get to where I need to go.
I am currently in the process of writing church school curricula for a few churches that have asked for studies for their youth and children's ministries. There are not many good curricula around and local libraries don't carry religious materials to help. I am thankful that I brought some resources with me and also for the training I have received in the past which is coming back to help me to write these classes for them.
Exposure is so important. Many folks still are not sure how to completely use me to their benefit. When I attend presbytery meetings or meet at churches or with folksm I have to assure them that their only costs will be to provide transportation for me to come to do their workshops. The expenses are so minimal but with very low income and not much cash available for training, it is always a challenge. I am asked almost every week if I can't find money from the United States. to help them with expenses.
I continue to work with presbyteries that have partnerships to assist them in any way that I can to help their partnerships grow and be more active. Sometimes it means helping to plan retreats or give ideas or just physically travel to sites to check on situations.
The regional youth coordinator and I are meeting to begin the process of doing another youth event in the fall with the new YAVs when they arrive.
Several presbyteries are in process of working with me to coordinate and implement leadership development training for church leaders in their local area. We are still trying to determine who will be the target audiences and what types of training they feel would be helpful. I am writing lot of modules for them to pick from.
Three presbyteries are about to begin their process of writing a new memorandum of understanding (MOU) and I am working with them to evaluate their current MOUs and start the process of developing a new one.
There is a women's retreat being talked about but we have not put time nor plans together for that.
I am starting a Bible study in my home that will bring together a few folks on an informal basis to discuss and pray together.
Eight presbyteries are now assigned to me as my area for training. The deputy secretary general of PCEA reminded me that it was OK to reach beyond that area to do training if I am asked. His description is one that I really liked: "A bird has a nest. It may fly to other areas to gather food or spend its time but it returns to its nest for rest."
Leadership development still remains the main focus of my time and energy. It takes on many different looks but comes down to the basics each time. My hope and prayer is that as we do ministry together people here are empowered with information and encouraged to use the information to help build their personal faith journeys and the faith journeys of those with whom they minister. I know that my work is but a small drop of water in the ocean of need, but if someone takes with them something that makes their life in Christ more meaningful and enriched, then God has placed me where I need to be.
Recently I was on a weekend getaway at a local game reserve and as I was preparing to eat lunch in the dining room I was having grace. The manager who is a personal friend came by the table to greet me and stood next to me until I finished praying. He then said "of all the people who come here you are the only one who prays in our dining room." Setting an example and knowing that people watch how you live your life is something we should take very seriously.
Kenya is preparing for an election and after the postelection violence from the last election we are praying that we will not have the same experience again. Please pray for my work here and the people of Kenya. Your support and prayers are what make a difference in the lives of the people with whom I live and work.
These are the highlights of my experiences. The day to day experiences are too numerous to list.; I try to include some of each in my blogs; please be sure to check it: Church Mouse Mmusings. Of course you can reach me at my email if you have further questions or would like to ask me questions about my work. My email address is firstname.lastname@example.com.

Rydges Southbank Townsville
A popular innovation from Event Cinemas has been Chicks at the Flicks – where a selected upcoming release movie is given a preview night for the ladies… might be just my humble opinion but in the history of chick flicks surely there hasn't been a chickier flick than Diana…
Double Academy Award nominee, Naomi Watts, plays the much adored Diana, the most famous woman of her time. The movie focuses on the last two years of her life and her last true love. The movie had its world premiere in London and, to be honest, some reviews have been less than kind – but interestingly, the reviews I have seen were written by men… Did I mention that this is a chick flick?
Get the ladies together for a fun night out at Event Cinemas in Townsville on Wednesday 25 September. Activities begin at 6pm followed by the film at 7pm. All tickets come with a bonus gift bag.
• Traditional - $25
• Vmax - $27
• Gold Class Package - $65 (includes booking fee)
The Gold Class package includes a glass of Yellowglen sparkling on arrival. In cinema enjoy bruschetta, vegetarian spring rolls served with spicy plum sauce and a serving of duck pancakes.
For any special dietary requirements, just see the Manager on arrival and they will attempt to accommodate your needs.

Max Raabe & Palast Orchester Brings Style of 20s and 30s to Reno
The high style and musical glory of the 20s and 30s arrive in Reno, Nev., April 10with a performance by world-renowned Max Raabe & Palast Orchester. Bringing a modern sensibility and an ironic twist to American and German classics, the group's "Berlin Nocturne" earns rave reviews and sold-out audiences the world over.
"It's nice to misbehave, in a tuxedo," says Raabe, the charismatic baritone that leads the retro styled performance. A singer of incredible range, he has a singular ability to capture the cunning rasp of the cabaret singer, the confident belcanto hero, the oily melodiousness of the revue beau, the carefree timbre of early jazz, as well as the falsetto of ragtime, all backed by his stellar 12-member band, many of whom have been with him from the beginning in 1986. The band's repertoire draws from more than 500 songs including such classics as "Chic I Bum," "Cheek to Cheek" and "You're the Cream in My Coffee," just to name a few.
Max Raabe & Palast Orchester perform April 10 at 8 p.m. at Grand Sierra Resort's Grand Theatre for Encore presented by Artown. Tickets for Max Raabe & Palast Orchester are just $25, $35 or $45 and are available online at www.RenoIsArtown.com or by phone at 800-648-3568. Tickets can be purchased in person at the Grand Sierra Resort Box Office with no service fees.

1. Another video from the riot in Toronto by the Palestine House over the JDL protest
2. The NSA Is Targeting Users of Privacy Services, Leaked Code Shows
If you use Tor or any of a number of other privacy services online or even visit their web sites to read about the services, there's a good chance your IP address has been collected and stored by the NSA, according to top-secret source code for a program the NSA uses to conduct internet surveillance.
There's also a good chance you've been tagged for simply reading news articles about these services published by Wired and other sites.
3. President of Zimbabwe Orders Whites Out, Executive Order Dictates Whites Can No Longer Own Land In Zimbabwe –
It is now confirmed that President of Zimbabwe Robert Mugabe has sealed the deal as dictator and declared that whites are no longer allowed to own land in his country. He's officially booting all white farmers and taking their land.
4. UK airports on alert over jihad plots involving surgically implanted bombs
5. There is a leftist-invader alliance demonstration that has been going on for days now in Germany. Below, a video of what appear to be German leftists ganging up on police to demand the right of invaders to full German state rights. Personally, I find this the easiest of problems to solve. Get the name and address of all people who think illegal immigrants should have access to the state, and put 2 or 3 of the invaders in their homes/apartments/college dorms. Arrest and jail any of these people who fail to properly provide food, medical and dental care and all other needs of these people. The left will stop this nonsense in a month.
6. Pupil's mother stabs teacher to death in front of her horrified five and six-year-old students in French school
The Moroccan-born woman, who holds Spanish nationality, has a police record for child neglect and not reporting a runaway child, French radio reported. […]
She is currently in custody, where she is likely to remain until a criminal trial sometime next year, when she will face up to 30 years in prison if convicted of murder.
7. Katie Hopkins thinks she's found a way to stop terrorism – by feeding jihadists fried chicken. Yes, really
(My suggestion would be to freeze the chickens and fire it at them at Mach 2)
"My view is pretty simple. If fried chicken helps to keep you calm, I suggest eating more of it and leaving dieting to people who can handle it. Like Fern Britton," Katie wrote in her Sun column.
Thank you M, ML, Rembrandt Clancey, Anti K, Maria J. and many more. Next post shortly.

This place is lovely. I'm not a mapmaker, but I'm enjoying perusing your work. I found your forum by following a link from Penny Arcade posted a few months ago. I'm looking at trying D&D with my housemates this year. All of us are first-timers and are a little shaky on the uptake, so thanks very much for making it easier by taking time to make such a handy resources.
Does anyone have any recommendations for other good 4e sites? I'm already skulking about EN world.

Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen to Present 'Illumina'
By Amy David, Special to the Henrico Citizen 11/18/10
The Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen will offer "Illumina," a holiday exhibition of various traditional and non-traditional Christmas trees each with their own theme for families to enjoy starting Dec. 4 – Dec. 30.
The exhibit will showcase 16 trees on the first floor of the center, designed by Yvonne Hopkins, a local resident who offered to give her creations to the center for the public. The trees will have different colors, ornaments, lights and other items that make up a certain theme.
"This is our first time having something like this," said Anita Waters, director of public relations and marketing for the center. "This event allows this woman to share her collection with the community, and it's something everyone can enjoy."
The exhibit will include a "Nostalgia Tree," a multi-color rotating aluminum tree from the 1960s. A combination of music, clothing, sports, politics and other memorabilia will make up the tree to represent the time periods of the 1940s through the 60s.
A breast cancer awareness tree, called "The Hope Tree" will be on display as well. Families or individuals will have the opportunity to donate to the Cancer Foundation for Breast Cancer Research and receive a pink ribbon with their name, which will be hung on the tree.
A few other themes include "The Great Outdoors," "True Colors," a "Goodwill Tree," a "Charlie Brown Tree" and "The Enchanted Tree," which displays Disney characters.
"There are a wide variety of different themes, so there's something for everybody," Waters said.
The center usually draws about 500 people each Christmas for its annual Tree Lighting ceremony outside and other events, but this year officials hope attendees will stay for the exhibit.
"The county has a lot of Christmas holiday events, and so a lot of people will have the opportunity to see these trees," said Waters.
Other traditional holiday exhibits, such as Chanukah and Kwanzaa will be on display in celebration of the event, a scavenger hunt will be held for children and families are asked to fill out a questionnaire and will be entered into a weekly prize drawing for the family with the most correct answers.
The event is free and will be held immediately following the tree lighting. The exhibition can be viewed from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays. The center will be closed Dec. 24 - 27.

When you have an emergency, the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office 911 Emergency Communications Facility (911 ECF) is likely your first call for help. When a telecommunicator receives a call, he or she quickly determines the situation and notifies the police or fire department in the city where the emergency is occurring. The telecommunicator also notifies emergency medical services and other first responders as needed. The Sheriff's Office 911-ECF is located in Plymouth and it is one of the largest consolidated dispatch centers in the Upper Midwest.
Please note that the non-emeregency telephone number has recently changed to 952-258-5321.
Call 911 in case of emergency and for suspicious activity reporting.
If you are uncertain about which telephone number to call, please call 911 and a dispatcher will assist you.
While dispatching emergency 911 calls is the core function of the Communications Division, many other emergency communications responsibilities take place behind the scenes. To improve communications and emergency preparedness among all Hennepin County first responders, Communications Division personnel continue to implement an 800-MHz trunked radio system. The 800 MHz radio system allows agencies to talk with each other directly on a common frequency throughout the county.

Science Q&A
Q: I know chocolate is harmful to dogs. What else hurts pets but not people?
A: Dogs and cats are commonly poisoned by drugs intended for humans, and several foods are uniquely toxic to dogs, said Dr. Karyn L. Bischoff, a veterinarian and toxicologist with the New York State Animal Health Diagnostic Center at Cornell University.
Dr. Bischoff listed canine food risks including the artificial sweetener xylitol, macadamia nuts, onions, garlic, leeks and chives. Grapes and raisins sometimes pose a threat; since the consequence could be life-threatening kidney failure, she said, "Why would you take the risk?"
As for chocolate, humans seem to be a little more resistant than dogs and cats to stimulants in it that are similar to caffeine, but even humans can get sick after consuming too much, Dr. Bischoff said. Baking chocolate, cocoa and dark or semisweet chocolates are the most dangerous.
Part of the problem with drugs is that cats and most dogs are relatively small, so a human dose is far too much. But Dr. Bischoff noted that some drugs, including acetaminophen in cats and ibuprofen in dogs, are toxic to pets because of their unique metabolism.
Dogs are often poisoned when they consume spilled medications, she said. Cats do so less frequently, but seem to be attracted to the antidepressant venlafaxine (Effexor), and Adderall, used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
A more complete list of pet poisons of all kinds can be found on the ASPCA's website.

this has been coverd in many many posts before, and is the whole reason station-psudobridge was created. It works great so far in our testing, and saves us a ton of overheard not needing to use WDS anymore.

Are you able to pass PPPoE traffic through the CPE's setup in station-pseudobridge mode?
I would like to do away with our WDS clients as it causes much overhead and for most clients transparent 802.1d bridging is not required. I thought I saw something about the Pseudo-bridge mode not allowing PPPoE passthrough... Anyway if it does, it's definitely something to look forward to in ROS v3.
