Stocks Pump-And-Dump-And-Pump On Fed Minutes; Bonds & Gold Rally
The knee-jerk reaction in JPY (which ran to 101.50 running stops) rippled across stocks (which ran to highs and took out stops), bonds (which ran to high yields of the day and took out stops), and gold (which ran to the week's lows and took out stops). But that did not last long. With the algos taking a back seat for a moment to real positioning, bonds are rallying, gold is up, the USD is down and equities are unch to down (Russell worst). Credit markets remain weak on the week and (just like Monday) unimpressed by equity's exuberance.
Pump-and-dump-and pump...
But credit ain't buying it again...
Who could have seen the JPY stop run comng?
All USDJPY stop are about to be taken out

Go BOTS, go!
Trading is simple.
Just ask yourself one question.
Which side can the Boys Bend Over Next?
KY anyone?
Sold 4XESM4, today @1886.0. $200/pt. New Short. basis June.
It's the same on nearly any heavy fed day. It cracks up in the morning and just stays steady and high the rest of the day. Look at the taper news, more taper news, etc. It's fucking uncanny, as if there is one rig button that says "Fed". They just push it in the morning and then leave for the day.
the way it works is this: high volume exuberance and increase for 1 minute based on the fact that the FED has not really said anything insane (we plan to tapr faster; hey the economy really sucks, we're screwed, etc), and then selling off that high (to make some money) for 2-3 minutes, and then a return to a low volume slow and steady increase the rest of the day.
Bonds and Gold telling the story.
Stocks in la-la land as usual.
Off topic ... a bit: Gold story on Yahoo:
Gold bar and coin demand slumps to 4-year low
Keep it out of the weak hands.
Gold is under 1300... Weak hands get tired of bag holding.
Tell me about bitcoin rising against fiat at $1,200 again.
Can you read charts you blind fuck? Put bitcoin and gold charts side by side for the past three years and choke yourself.. Hell bitcoin was still $100 last September. 4x your money vs gold?
Or you are a terrible trader that only looks how the worst trade can happen by buying at the top of a market? You only look at how much you would lose for being the worst trader ever? Is that what you bring to the discussion?
I sold most of my gold in the high $1800's and sold most of my bitcoins $900 to $1100. I said that in Jan. I am accumulation both now. You will continue to be a dumb fuck
Ah did I hit a such a raw spot that you have to resort to name calling? By the way you are lying about your trades. You were going on about bitcoin being a buy at $ 1,200. I have been and continue to purchase PMs, however they aren't a trade for me. I fund my purchases with the proceeds from trading with the free money from the fed.
Edit: BTW, you were bullish on gold in January. Are we to assume that you have since changed your stance?
buy at $1200?? you make up the worst shit.. i was selling and told you, but you feel the need to be right and forget about me telling your dumb as shit brain to buy at $30 over a year ago.. remember that fucktard?? do you???
and i resort to name calling to kick you in the fucking braindead skull since talking to you is meaningless
i sold from $900-$1100 and been buying from $400 up now and yes i am in long gold since under $1300 and sold that when it was over $1800
fuck u if u dont believe it jackass
and if we want to make up shit the other said you were going on and on how you really do love fucking boys and feel it is the next progressive thing to do
>> I sold most of my gold in the high $1800's and sold most of my bitcoins $900 to $1100.
Hey bro!!! Me too!!! I bought the bottom and sold the top time and time again. It's like shooting fish is a barrel. Nice to see there's more of us than just me and getzeegold.
is a $5 jump really a rally?
you been here a year and you feel the need to say some basic stupid shit like that? glad you showed up
More Bailouts on the horizon added with raising the munimum wage ... very Bullish for commodities.
283 Tonnes in the quarter year !! Ten times what the Russian Nation bought for it's central bank reserves !! That means the recent lows are a real bottom; nowhere to go but up from here. Thanks a lot for the reference; with a "slump" like that we're doing good business here !
stated demand figure on your referred site; 283Tonnes. Ten times what Russia bought for their central bank reserves. With a "slump" like that, we got no worries, Mate. That means the recent lows are hard floors, and there's nowhere to go but up. Thanks for the link; I had no idea.
no inflation risk! BTFD!!!
I wonder if VIX will break 12 by the end of the day.
Even if it does it is still a sale; the VIX is incredibly overpriced, its going back to single digits.
The VIX made it to 11.89 just a few minutes ago. So what happens if the VIX goes to 0? does the stock market go to infinity, and everyone who is invested become infinitely rich. And those short the market, infinitely poor?
I see that hindsight is a bit fuzzy here...then again, that doesn't matter when you are dealing with rigged casinos n robots.
What the heck is going on with oil? Getting close to 104.
Memorial Day and the Summer driving season 5 days away.
The bankrupt and unemployed about to pile into the family Truckster and drive to Wally World!
Ah yes...the Wagon Queen Family Truckster...15 MPG if you're lucky.
Keeping gold under 1300.00 at all costs...stocks must go higher until the collapse.
Old Yeller and her band of thieves are getting pretty good at simultaneously slamming the usd down while elevating bond yields... They must be taking night "jawboning" classes from Draghi.
Meanwhile, very large VIX trades:
What a bunch of fucking retards - 'Oh boy, the FED minutes say exactly what they told us after the meeting - load up!'
Must.....save.....the stawks
Oil is the game today kids..
Someone told me to be my own central banker, so I did a few things:
1.) I have hoarded loads of gold/silver over the years
2.) I issue & control my household money supply & I Don't care if a (D) or (R) wins elections.
3.) I've grown a scraggly beard and look in the mirror and smile at my self and repeat over & over again: "God Himself could not sink this economy."
I release my own Microsoft Word "Household Minutes" that I hand out to my family, currently Working on my $250K speeches...
Around midday Aussie time yesterday the gold price was a touch over $1296, so when I read a headline stating "Gold Rally", I don't expect that in the following 18 hours I see the price at $1291.82!
There is always the possibility of the taper ending, they might consider ending the taper, set parameters for ending the taper, project the taper in the future, show concern for inflation with the taper ending because of it, taper tomorrow, next week, next year, in 2016, be extremely happy the time to taper is here, admit it is time to taper, reanalyse taper in the future, absolutely start the taper in the coming months, and rejoyce the economy is doing so well that the taper is the next step and obviously just fucking lie about the taper. But they cannot stop printing fiat. They are just too far into it now. Too many people have lost too many jobs and too much pruchasing power. We hae fallen down thecosmic bunny hole of banker and politician greed.

We suppose there are two ways to look at Warner Brothers plans to release "Mad Max: Fury Road" during the summer of 2015 (which will essentially be three years after filming began): either the glass is half full or the glass is half empty. And for director George Miller, who is now in the midst of additional shooting on the picture, he's brimming with optimism about his movie, about WB's plans for it and even some of the early feedback he's been receiving.
''Our film, luckily, after a ridiculous amount of work, is testing extremely well,'' the director told The Sydney Morning Herald. ''We're very happy. There has been a lot of doubt about it, [people saying] 'it took so long', but Warners have delayed it until 2015 to go into the top weekend of the year.'' It should also be noted that part of the studio's decision to hold the movie rather than release it next year, was likely to avoid the scheduling problem usually caused by the World Cup in international territories.
So after swatting down rumors of a troubled production, Miller also addressed the rumbling word around his movie that the original Max Rockatansky—Mel Gibson—would be appearing in this new installment of the franchise. 'It would have been nice somehow but, no, it's not true,'' Miller stated.
So there you go. Production continues on "Mad Max: Fury Road" which will hit cinemas on May 15, 2015.

When I speak at conferences like Flash In The Can I am always asked the same question after every lecture: "Kevin how did you get to where you are in your career?"
This question mostly comes from students and young designers who are breaking into the career field.
I typically answer the question the same way each time.
It's a long story, and if you have time I'll answer it for you now.
A gesture of goodwill
It all started with a simple gesture of goodwill. (Really it did!) I was working for a dotcom company in the United States. I had the Aeron chair, the fast Mac, and the free latte machine at my office.
But one thing we didn't have was projects. Everyday I would come to work and have absolutely nothing to do.
So after a few weeks this got really old. With permission from my supervisor I started to do pro-bono freelance for Amnesty International. I contacted Amnesty and informed them of my dilemma.
Making a move on the industry
I was bored out of my skull and wanted to make some use of my time (instead of just playing video games all day) So I build Amnesty a very funky interactive timeline to celebrate their 40th birthday.
The project was big hit, and in the years that proceeded Amnesty asked me to do more and more work (but this time paid.)
The reason I tell this story is the fact that it illustrates several important points for designers starting out in the field.
Chicken and egg
Many people suffer from the "chicken and the egg" syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by the fact that many new designers don't have any big brands under their belt. Yet they need the big brands in order to work on other big brands. – Thus the "chicken and the egg" problem.
I tell young designers to solve this problem by volunteering their talents with national charities. There are many charities out there that are very high profile but don't have a budget to create cool Flash interactivity for their site.
Being charitable
I always suggest emailing as many charities as they can and offer to volunteer their skills to help build a cool project for them. This technique is a win-win for both the charity and the young designer.
The charity gets interesting content for their site and the designer gets a high profile name on their resume and in their portfolio. Using this experience the designer can move up the food chain to other bigger clients.
New doors open
My freelance work, and even book writing can all be traced back to that one freelance project with Amnesty. It gave me the self confidence and the motivation to continue to move out on my own. Little by little I started to build more traction in my career.
I was lucky to work at large agencies like Campbell-Ewald (the agency of record for Chevrolet.com) These experiences taught me a lot about branding and building large scale websites.
I started to write small articles for online and offline magazines like Communication Arts. Each article I wrote help build my status in the web design community. Just like the freelance clients, I slowly moved up the food chain.
The snowball effect
Each writing / speaking project getting bigger each time. Eventually I authored chapters in books for Friends of Ed, and McGraw-Hill.
I co-authored a book on Flash usability called Flash 99 Good. That in turn helped me write my own book Web Designer's Success Guide: How to profit from freelance web design.
I typically don't write the books for the income, as anyone who writes will tell you there is very little money in it, especially if you are writing computer books. I write the books and articles (just like this one) to get my name out there.
In the era of Google, the more your name and URL appear online the better chances you have of clients finding your site.
Free advertising
Nothing can beat writing an article for a site that gets over 100,000 uniques a month with your URL at the end of the article. It's like free advertising, and when you are small company like me you can't beat that.
The vital steps
So to recap these are the steps I always offer young designers on how to build your career.
1. If you have no "name brands" in your portfolio then volunteer with a national charity. You'll find you have a lot of creative freedom to create great work for your portfolio and the charity will benefit from your time as well.
2. Volunteer to write small articles for anyone who will take them. Many online designer portals love to get articles from web designers. You would be surprised at how fast you can build your Google link credit online by doing this.
3. After you have a few articles on your belt, come up with a book topic and email the publishers examples of the various articles you have written along with your book outline. If they like what they see you might just land a book chapter or co-author project.
If this fails why not try self-publishing a book with a company like Lulu.com. I've done this for my last book WDSG.
4. If you are lucky to write a book and can do public speaking… then come up with a lecture idea centered around your book topic. Then email the lecture idea to various design festivals to see if they are interested in having you speak. You may very well surprise your self.

on May 1. Anti-Chinese protests last month spun off into violence, with hundreds of factories looted and burned, four Chinese killed and more than 300 injured.
China and the Philippines are embroiled in a similar dispute, while China has revived its beef with Japan over territory and Tokyo's World War II invasion. Beijing has suspended most government-to-government exchanges with Tokyo and Chinese patrol boats routinely confront Japanese craft in waters surrounding uninhabited East China Sea islands controlled by Japan but claimed by China.
While Beijing has been strengthening ties with fellow authoritarian state Russia, the conflicts elsewhere on its periphery enhance its sense of encirclement. But India's traditional non-aligned stance has always been attractive to Beijing, and now both sides want to ''get down to work to resolve prickly issues,'' said Manoj Joshi, a leading Indian defense analyst.
The warm sentiments began even before Modi was elected. The new prime minister had already visited China four times during his 12 years as chief minister of the west Indian state of Gujarat. Li, China's premier, made India his first foreign destination after taking office last year.
The thawing in relations also comes amid China's rising concerns about instability in Pakistan, which Beijing fears is being used as a base for militants fighting Chinese rule in the far northwestern region of Xinjiang. China now considers Pakistan as a liability rather than an asset and sees the need to cooperate with India on stabilizing the situation, Huang said.
China is also eager to help revive India's stalled economy, upgrade its crumbling infrastructure and prop up faltering bilateral trade, which dropped to $65 billion last year, with China enjoying a $48 billion surplus.
Having grown into the world's second-largest economy, China offers a road map for reform, particularly in an Indian manufacturing industry that is crucial for Modi to fulfill his promise to create the jobs needed for the 13 million youths entering India's labor market every year.
Despite the new friendliness, Huang and other observers see little chance of an end to the border dispute after 17 rounds of talks, although Joshi said recent Chinese pronouncements seem to indicate a heightened desire for progress.
The key issue, observers say, will be avoiding flare-ups such as a three-week standoff last year between border guards from the two countries.
''More important than a resolution ... is to not let the border issue affect the overall relations,'' said Wang Lian of Peking

WASHINGTON (AP) — A Democratic bill expanding health, education and other benefits for veterans and their families is ready to clear an early Senate hurdle. But with Republicans unhappy about the measure's impact on federal deficits, its fate remains uncertain.
The Senate planned to vote Tuesday on whether to begin debating the legislation. It was expected to win the 60 votes needed to proceed.
But its fate after that is unclear. Republicans feel the measure is too costly and adds too much money to the deficit, but it is uncertain whether Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will give them a chance to offer amendments to the bill.
The chairman of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, Vermont independent Bernie Sanders, says the measure would cost $21 billion over the next decade.

*Update: I really don't know if I'm going to be able to write my post this weekend. Sorry but I'm moving. Right now. We are in desperate need of a truck! If anybody has a camioneta and an hour of time to move a fridge and bed please email me: kylehepp at gmail dot com We're moving a block away from where we live now so it wouldn't take long and you would have my eternal gratitude.
And I have to write 32 stories before Monday. And I have to finish designing a wedding album. And I have to run 3 miles today as part of my training program. To say I'm a little stressed out would be an understatement. Sorry about being a crappy group blogging organizer!

On May 3 Apple said that it was very close to hitting 50 billion app download mark on its App store. Today the company announced that its App Store has surpassed the milestone – which they point out does not include re-downloads of apps or updates by users. While we do not know the exact data and time this milestone was met, we do know who the person was that downloaded the 5 billionth app: Ohio's Brandon Ashmore. Apple awarded him a $10,000 App Store gift card, and his app of choice – the word game Say the Same Thing by Space Inch.
"Apple would like to thank our incredible customers and developers for topping 50 billion apps downloaded," said Apple's Eddy Cue.
"The App Store completely transformed how people use their mobile devices and created a thriving app ecosystem that has paid out over nine billion dollars to developers. We're absolutely floored to cross this milestone in less than five years."
Apple's App Store officially opened its virtual doors in July of 2008 with 500 Apps. Today the App Store hosts 850,000 apps for various iOS devices including iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, with more than 350,000 native iPad apps, available in 155 countries. Developers have earned over $9 billion from app sales in the store.

Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
Is she going into a nursing home?
Has she applied for Medicaid and been rejected for some reason?
Does she have any other assets beyond her income?
well she's in a senior independent living facility currently but her progression is quickly headed toward a nursing home I'm afraid. No she hasn't applied and been rejected for Medicaid.....she makes to much for straight up Medicaid but there are certain waiver programs but I understand it could take as much as 2 years to qualify because of the waiting lists they have.
she doesn't have any other assets to speak of other than her income....she has a car and some furniture.
ok thanks that sounds great my only concern is right now she doesn't necessarily qualify or currently in need of the nursing home but would like to know if she still qualifies for Medicaid for her medical bills Now even before she has to be in a nursing home?
hope that makes sense. ;)

Derek Trucks: Blues With Family Roots
Set List
- "Sweet Inspiration"
- "Down in the Flood"
- "Get What You Deserve"
At 9 years old, Derek Trucks found an old acoustic guitar at a garage sale for five bucks, took it home and began to practice. In two years' time, the child prodigy was onstage with the Allman Brothers Band, and went on to play with Bob Dylan, Joe Walsh and Stephen Stills. Trucks, the nephew of Allman Brothers drummer Butch Trucks, formed The Derek Trucks Band at 15. Known for improvisation, The Derek Trucks Band blends blues, soul, jazz, rock, Indian music and Latin music in its exploratory sound. Its sixth studio album, Already Free, just came out.
Trucks has been widely hailed for his astonishing slide-guitar playing. According to fellow guitarist John Mayer, Trucks' signature move is "making the guitar sound like a female singer from the '50s or '60s, just belting it out." Trucks met and married blues singer Susan Tedeschi while collaborating with her band, and the two now regularly perform together. They brought their respective acts together in 2008 for the highly praised Soul Stew Revival tour.
In a session with host David Dye, Trucks discusses his choice of cover songs throughout his career, including one by his late friend Paul Pena. Tedeschi joins the band on vocals and describes the music their kids listen to at home.

Madden's goal sparked the Duquesne offense as the Dukes tallied two more goals to take a 3-1 advantage with 21:00 left in the first half.
Massachusetts ended the Dukes' scoring run with a goal at the 19:45 mark to pull within 3-2. Duquesne had an answer for the Minutewoman goal, tallying a pair of goals to go up 5-2 at 18:25. Massachusetts ended Duquesne's offensive run, tallying three straight goals to tie the game at 5-5.

The Minutewomen came out firing in the second half, tallying four goals for a 10-5 lead in the final minutes of the game. Massachusetts clinched the victory with its final goal of the night at the 2:38 mark to claim an 11-6 victory.

Picture Yourself in a positive Light!
Saturday, August 08, 2009
Recently, I have seen several blogs or post of negative affirmations of one's self. Please do not misunderstand me. I am no where near where I want to be and will be.
I remeber when my unit at FT Bragg was deployed to Iraq in 1990. I was 18 going 19. When we got to Iraq, it was a hold another world over there. We have built this place up. Bu my special ops, was the first units there. Many of my buddies, were attempting suicide, some succeeded. Others got pregant intentionally to be returned the States.
I joined the choir that our tent city had formed. I watched so many people my age going,; creating all kinds of situations, some detrimental than others to go. I lay in my sleeping that nigh, as the air war beginned crying, asking God, to not allow me to give up on him. I knew I could easily give up on myself. As a I am breathing today, God said to me, I will never put more on you than you can bear.
I did not want slit my wrist, or try to get pregnant, but I was scared as h ---. What I have learned through my military experience, you may not always like the circumstances, the pain that you will endure. I am in no way above or have mastered this logic. But I believe whole heatedly, if God allows us to go through it, we have the strength, the faith to get through it.
So to all my Spark Friends, who feel like I can't write as good as others, my article won't make sense. This maybe to much to expose before people I barely know.
Remember this is not about or them, this is your personal walk with yourself and God. So I have put some inspirations that I hope every time, you think I am not posting, or I am going to quit Sparks today. Whether its' SparkPeople, Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers.
Hang in there! You will get to the good stuff, and reap the fruit of your hard labor. I love you and be encouraged, as I will eat a dose of my own medicine...everyday.
because you are worth it!
and you are beautiful, just the way you are...we just know it yet! Haaaa!

This blog is awesome and you are an awesome lady. Thank you for serving our country. God bless you for that. God is with us always. Sometimes is big major situations like yours. But in small little situations like mine today. I was bumming because I gained a couple of pounds. Pounds that I worked hard to lose. God led me to your blog so I would see how silly my issue really is in the greater scheme of life.
We Americans go through our daily lives with little thought of what our men and women in the military are going through. Much more and worse than we can imagine. Many come home and just can't talk about what happened so again we just don't get a feel for how terrible it really was for them God Bless you and all who serve and have served and are living with the nightmares of that experience.

What a truly wonderful blog, MJ! Your words touched me and how sweet and caring of you to share! You're right -- we are never alone and we always have someone by our side -- through the good and the bad times. Everything has a purpose and God has a plan for us -- one that we do not even know! But that's where the faith and trust comes in -- we are to live each day as we believe is true, right and would please our Maker! You said it beautifully and I thank you for your wonderful words and thoughts! I loved them!!! Thank you!!!

This weekend my husband and I took part in the MS Society "City to Shore" ride. It starts in Cherry Hill, NJ (just to the east of Philadelphia PA), and runs across the breadth of NJ to the shore town of Ocean City. They sometimes call it the "City to Shore 150" because that's the base length: 75 miles out , 75 miles back the next day.
Oh -- and there's an optional loop on the way out, so you can do 100 miles on the first day.
Of course, if you're crazy, you can ride to the starting line for another few miles. And then ride some more when you get back, in addition to just getting home, because why stop at just 90 miles?
So day 1: 110 miles
Day 2: 100.02 miles
Phil had *FIVE* flat tires: 1 puncture, 3 "old tube split on the seam" (that's how we know the tubes are old) and one "we're STILL not quite sure what happened".
And new readers: 3 years ago, I was getting tired and winded doing a 6 mile ride on flat terrain. I needed to stop after about 4 miles, and catch my breath before going the rest of the way. If you stay with it...

Alabama Representative Terri Sewell says she has learned a lot in the year and a half that she has been in office, including the importance of collaboration.
Sewell is the only Democratic member of the Alabama delegation and tells us that has made her understand the importance of working together. We caught up with the Alabama representative this past week when she was in Choctaw County to help present the North Choctaw Water Authority with a check for $3 million.
"You know four months into it, we had the terrible tornadoes that devastated our state and parts of this district," Sewell recalls. "I've learned the importance of collaboration. As a lone Democratic member of the Alabama delegation, I know how critically important it is that we all work together. That we don't see red and we don't see blue. We see Alabamians in need."
Sewell took office in January 2011.

Publish or Perish
TIMOTHY YOON LIKES the word community. When the 25-year-old Detroit native talks about the queer scene in the Twin Cities, he leans forward earnestly, and he uses phrases like "building bridges," with great comfort. It's this impulse toward connection that inspired Yoon to co-found the local monthly Up Magazine, which is working on its fifth issue. "People could work together more," he says, tucking chin-length black hair behind his ears. "Up Magazine doesn't take sides. We're saying 'Get involved, make change!'"
"Get involved" is a call to action, but Up Magazine is at least as interested in the social scene as in political activity. The pages are full of thin, young, hip, beautiful people in expensive clothes, posed in local outdoor settings. The publication, which Yoon edits, seems just as happy to have you build community by dancing at the Saloon and piercing your nipple at Bionic Laboratory as by stuffing envelopes at OutFront Minnesota.
In this commercial spirit, Up runs a side business as a modeling agency, with Yoon and his partners representing the local talent in Up's fashion spreads. Yoon calls this "a vital part of our publication," explaining that being photographed for the magazine "gets people involved in the community.
"Content and advertising meld," he adds, "and we're really proud of that. Because if [queers] are an economic force, we're a more effective political force." Showing off Up, Yoon gleefully jabs his finger at an ad he designed for Hair Police and cries, "This is so whiz-bang! You can't even believe how whiz-bang I feel this ad is!"
Think globally, shop locally.
Another new publication on the newsrack is The Citizen Harold, a comic, biweekly newspaper featuring stories with headlines like "Nice Woman to Wed 'Total Jerk-Off,'" and "Accountant Considers Telling Wife About Gay Lover; Enjoys Crab Legs Instead." Besides news parodies, the paper includes an advice column ("Ask the Geographers"), horoscopes, and a skyway traffic report.
If it sounds a lot like Madison, Wisconsin's weekly paper The Onion--well, it looks a lot like it, too. Unlike The Onion, however, which provides at least one good laugh in every issue, The Citizen Harold's humor generally ranges from weak-smile to deep-groan. "Local Fat Guy Breathes Heavily" limps along for ten paragraphs with fictional quotes like "I feel sorry for his lungs."
The Citizen Harold is the brainchild of roommates and fellow University of Ohio geography department alums Jeff DeGrave, age 31, and Ryan Wells, age 28 ("a young 31 and a young 28," they emphasize). Though the two are remarkably industrious, it's a casual operation. As Wells discusses the publication, he folds his tall frame onto the sheet-covered futon in their living room and pops open a beer. With good humor, Wells reports that in the past, his jokes and writing were constantly rejected for publication by magazines. "Enough people say no and you decide to put out your own newspaper," he concludes.
"That way everything you do gets published," adds DeGrave.
"Well, Jeff gets about 90 percent of his stuff in anyway," Wells jokes.
Having taught themselves the art of publishing and ad sales, the pair produces the entire paper in their living room and at Kinko's, while DeGrave works a nine-to-five job for the state and Wells bartends at the Lexington in St. Paul. DeGrave and Wells say they've been overwhelmed with positive feedback, including nods from MTV and Miramax Pictures. And they've scored a biweekly radio engagement reading the paper on the Cities 97 morning show.
"Who knows, maybe we could get jobs writing in L.A. or something," DeGrave says optimistically.
"Of course, if it were up to us, we'd have more fun staying here and putting out a paper," adds Wells.
"Right," amends DeGrave. "But it would be fun to say 'No, thanks.'"

PESWiki.com -- Pure Energy Systems Wiki: Finding and facilitating breakthrough clean energy technologies.
Directory:Benjamin Fulford
From PESWiki
Page first featured March 12, 2010
The following overview is derived primarily from Wikipedia:Benjamin_Fulford, with modification
Benjamin Fulford (born 1961) is a journalist, author, and activist against the totalitarian New World Order, garnering support from a very unlikely place: various secret societies, mainly in Asia.
He is a friend and supporter of free energy advancement.
Originally of Canadian, as a teen he spent time in the Amazon, then devoured his studies in college. He ended up living in Japan and speaks 4 languages.
He worked in Japan as a correspondent for Knight Ridder, the International Financing Review, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun English edition, and the South China Morning Post before moving to Forbes magazine, where he was the Asian Bureau chief from 1998 to 2005.
His investigative reports pursued scandals in the Japanese government and business world. After leaving Forbes he wrote a series of books in Japanese, some of which became best sellers, and began publishing on the internet.
In an effort to get more involved in making changes, he naturalized to Japanese citizenship in 2007. He gained some popularity on the Internet after he conducted an interview with the reclusive David Rockefeller in November 2007.
Official Websites

- http://benjaminfulford.typepad.com/benjaminfulford/ - Blog (Japanese) – has more content than the English version.
Points of View
The following is derived primarily from Wikipedia:Benjamin_Fulford
Fulford has given a number of interviews to investigative journalists, and therein claimed that:
- The Pentagon, the oil industry, banking elite, and the pharmaceutical industry suppress inventions including free-energy and anti-gravity technology to maintain power.
- AIDS and SARS are bio-engineered weapons designed to reduce the African ("Black") and Asian populations. AIDS was created to reduce the African population, and SARS was meant to reduce the Asian populations of the world.
- A Chinese secret society with a membership of 6 million (intellectuals like professors in various fields, scientists, politicians, etc.), this includes 1.8 million gangsters, and 100,000 professional assassins has issued an ultimatum to the Illuminati, warning them that if they persist with their plan to depopulate the earth, they will be killed. The society has created an alliance joining China, Russia, India, South America, ASEAN, the free Muslim nations and Africa that is united in stopping the Illuminati.
- The 9/11 terrorist attacks were an "inside job" carried out by the US government as a false flag attack to bring about new imperial mobilization.

David Wilcock Interviews Fulford
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocNY7rle654 - David Wilcock & Benjamin Fulford (1/9) Disclosure Endgame - Fall of the Rockefellers 01-22-2010
Introductory segment gives overview of Fulford's work and views. The interview took place just a day or two before the Haiti earthquake.
Benjamin Fulford is a former East-West editor for Forbes magazine. Several years ago he said he had been contacted by members of the so-called "Illuminati"; and immediately thereafter, he was also contacted by members of an Asian secret society that had been reanimated after a long dormant phase; in order to help fight this scourge of world power that now has become obvious to even the biggest fence-sitters in these other countries in the world. They referred to themselves as "The Red and the Green". Fulford has since expanded his level of contact and worked with others, not just The Red and the Green anymore, but have formed a larger society, which he is now calling the Black Dragon Society.

And while its fun, albeit typically Oblivion engine, the dialogue options are great and I just love the fact that the world is grittily violent like in RL, if you throw a grenade at someone you can blow off their leg! They won't just do over-exaggerated grunts of pain and carry on shooting at you, same goes for if you shoot them in certain places and cause lots of damage they start limping exactly as they should.
Now what pisses me off is why the fuck is it so fucking hard for developers to just fucking make games that actually WORK? I read the comments about Fallout 3 and decided against buying it myself until they brought a new patch out which is supposedly coming soon, I guess after the holidays. But fucks sake, my computer ran this game better than fine when it isn't crashing or jittering to a halt and yet the fucking game itself takes a huge memory dump and shits all over my PC. The reason I know this is just now I got the blue screen of death after I was fighting some mercenaries in the game ( I could've gotten a bloody energy rifle ) and it bitched about physical memory loss and restarted.
What the fuck is wrong with these stupid idiotic developers?! When I pay for a product I expect the fucking thing not to fall apart from me at the slightest touch, the same goes for fucking software or games, when I click fire I expect it to fire, not suddenly cause the computer to die on me.
For the record my computer runs the Oblivion engine better than fine as I said and I had the quality on low anyway just so I could run it better, but fuck me, a game hasn't pissed me off this much since Bioshock and Supreme Commander.
Half of these games that I bitch about wouldn't actually be so bad if they weren't fucking broken to the core and never got fixed, I know Bethesda will fix it up though because they are a decent company but fucks sake.

Update on Sofia59-year-old Sofía is married and has two adult children. She lives with her husband in their own home, which is located in a small village in Morrope district, approximately two hours from Lambayeque province. This is a small village of approximately 20 families who mainly work in farming and raising livestock.
Sofia has been selling cattle, sheep and goats for 20 years. She and her husband have set up strategic spaces (pens) where they raise and fatten their animals before selling them in the markets in nearby villages. Through this business, they have provided for their family over the years.
She now also has a general store where she sells diverse basic needs products and groceries to her neighbors.
Sofía has requested a new loan for 3,000 soles from Edpyme Alternativa. She is planning on using the loan to buy more animals and balanced feed in order to set up her business of raising and selling animals for the coming Christmas season. This is because her demand always increases. She also wants to get more products for her store.
She has previously worked with Kiva loans, and she considers them to be a big help to people with small businesses. That is why she is so grateful to the people who have already helped her. She thanks, in advance, the people who will help her this time

Adicionalmente cuenta ahora con una bodega en donde ofrece a sus vecinos diversos productos de primera necesidad y abarrotes.
Sofía ha solicitado nuevamente a Edpyme Alternativa un crédito de 3000 nuevos soles que piensa utilizar en la compra de más animales, alimento balanceado para implementar su negocio de crianza y venta ante la proximidad de las fechas navideñas, motivo por el cual su demanda siempre aumenta. Del mismo modo desea adquirir más productos para su bodega.
Ella ya ha trabajado anteriormente con préstamos financiados a través de Kiva y les considera de mucha ayuda para los pequeños empresarios, motivo por el cual se encuentra bastante agradecida con las personas que le apoyaron en su momento y agradece de antemano a las personas que le apoyarán en esta oportunidad.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

available data, the aircraft flew south until it ran out of fuel and crashed into the sea, according to a source familiar with data the U.S. government is receiving from the investigation.
In the south, any debris from MH370 would have been widely dispersed by Indian Ocean currents in the week since it disappeared.
The southern Indian Ocean, between Indonesia and Australia, is broken up only by the Australian territories of Christmas Island, home to asylum seeker detention facilities, and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands some 2,000 km (1,240 miles) northwest of Perth. The Cocos Islands have a small airport to serve the islands' combined population of just 3,000 people.
Further south, the only habitation is the handful of research stations on the scattering of tiny French-run islands including Kerguelen - a group of volcanic outcrops between Africa, Australia and Antarctica. While home to several powerful astronomical scanners and radar, there is no airport and it is seen extremely unlikely the aircraft could have made it that far.
The shipping route from Western Australia north to Asia and Europe is considered relatively quiet in global shipping terms, despite the large amount of iron ore and other resources that are shipped from Australia's northwest ports.
Ships track north staying close in to the West Australian coastline and then head north through Indonesian waters into the South China Sea or northwest toward the Red Sea.
Australia's civil aviation radar extends a maximum of just 200 nautical miles (410 km) off the coast, the civil aviation authority source said, and was used only for monitoring scheduled aircraft on approach into the country and subsequent landings.
There are just two primary radars on the west Australian coast, one in Perth and one further north in Paraburdoo, which has even less range and is used to monitor mining traffic heading to the nearby Pilbara region.
Australia's Civil Aviation Authority relies on aircraft ADSB (automatic dependent surveillance broadcast) to ping information to commercial satellites, such as telecoms firm Optus' four telecommunications satellites, and back to ground control.
The source said that this was the case with flights by Emirates Airlines, which all fly over the Indian Ocean to Australia, but it did not provide a specific radar plot.
Australia does not have any government satellites.
The Australian military has an over-the-horizon radar network that allows it to observe all air and sea activity north of Australia for up to 3,000 km (1,860 miles). This encompasses all

The time had come for me to fly to Poland and see my daughter. I had missed out on x-mas thanks in part to a very pissed-off USAF colonel so this was my chance. This trip took some planning to set up, though there is enough aerial adventure to make even the most seasoned travelers nervous.
The first leg of this trip is the only leg that i spent more than 10 minutes planning. I would once again enlist the help of a friend and enjoy the comforts of 5-star travel. It just so happened that there was an airplane that needed to reposition to from KIAD to LFPG, and it's routing included a stop in KJFK just long enough to pick up catering and deadheading pax (me.) Right after work i headed home, parked my car in my garage and hitched a ride to JFK's general aviation terminal where my chariot sat waiting. Like the previous trip, as soon as i got onboard and took off my coat we sat down and started taxi. The crew was in no rush to get to Paris, the airplane didn't need to fly again until Wednesday evening. After a few discussions with the pilots during their break periods it was decided among them that they would divert to EPWA to drop me off and save me the hassle of getting from Paris to Warsaw. Once again, the crew was very welcoming and professional, and thanks to the onboard internet a few buddy passes were issued in exchange for the favor I received. A/c was NOT N511QS.

Google has reportedly chosen Asus to build its first Nexus tablet, despite previous rumours that Motorola would be manufacturing the slate.
So says IntoMobile, who has heard that Asus will build the £125 7-inch tablet, which Google hopes will take on the Amazon Kindle Fire with its Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich software and "high quality" build.
No further specs have been revealed, but with best-mates Asus onboard to build it, it could take a similar form to the Asus Transformer Prime. Previous rumours have suggested that the device will tout a 7-inch AMOLED 600 x 1024 resolution screen, which will act as a "hub" for Google to showcase its features (NFC, for example).
The yet-unnamed Google Nexus tablet is expected to make its US debut in April 2011, with no word yet on a UK release. We'll bring you more details as soon as we get them.

If last month's Olympics marked China's "coming out" in the global media, last year saw a similar (if less extravagant) emergence of China's pharmaceutical industry. Insiders took note of two signal developments: WuXi Pharmatech's IPO on the New York Stock Exchange in September, and the R&D collaboration deal between Hutchinson Medipharma in Shanghai and Eli Lilly. The largest China-based contract research organization (CRO), WuXi has seen its stock value climb as high as $40-plus per share since its IPO at $14. Hutchinson Medipharma's partnership with Lilly, focusing on oncology and inflammation, is the first "rich deal" between a Big Pharma and a China-based drug R&D shop.
In fact, with its explosive economic growth and increasing influence on world affairs, China has emerged as one of the last remaining superpowers, and experts predict that China will surpass the United States as the top pharmaceutical market worldwide in the next two decades. Accordingly, the Chinese government has designated the life sciences as one of its "pillar industries" to fuel growth. Various incentive programs were created to attract overseas commercial entities to establish Chinese operations and entice "sea turtles" to return to the homeland as entrepreneurs. (Why "sea turtles"? "Overseas returnees" and "sea turtles" are pronounced the same in Mandarin Chinese: hai gui.) Increasingly, US and European venture capital (VC) funds are looking to China for new life-sciences investment opportunities.
According to a May 2008 Citigroup report, the global CRO market is estimated to be US$15 billion, and growing 15 to 16 percent annually. China's share is growing well above that rate. Despite fears about quality control—mainly in manufacturing—Big Pharma's outsourcing of R&D is only accelerating. Chemistry and small-molecule compounds lead the way, with biology and protein-based work gaining fast. And preclinical safety research is just starting, with initiatives from Charles River and Covance/WuXi Pharmatech.Big Pharma has understandably tended to take a one-toe-at-a-time approach to sourcing in China, especially when it comes to cherished R&D activities. Roche Research China went at it more ambitiously, working with a wide range of partners—academic groups, biotechs, and CROs—and integrating them as much as possible into Roche's own drug discovery teams. "We are seeking the optimal balance of how much we do in-house and [what we do] with external partners," says Li Chen, head of research at Roche China R&D Center. "We expect to approach a 50/50 ratio by the time we run a full portfolio, from lead generation to Phase IIa clinical trials." The Swiss giant is now collaborating with its Chinese partners on translational research and looking into the clinical trial design for new medicines discovered in China.
The Question of Quality
The recent heparin panic—the likely result of a sophisticated contamination upstream from the plant processing the anticoagulant for Baxter—has apparently not dampened Big Pharma's enthusiasm for outsourcing to China. "I don't see much of a difference between running an operation with internal staff and external staff," says Roche's Chen. "It's all about leadership. If you look at the quality of the science itself, Chinese chemistry is always good. DMPK [drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics] and safety operations can be standardized in China just as in any other part of the world. Research biology and pharmacology require knowledge and expertise, and they are still evolving. The redistribution of talent is now happening—from Big Pharma to CROs/biotech, and from West to East. The challenge is to translate individual excellence to an institutional and industrywide practice in China."


text: I installed WinVNC (server) on a computer running win95 with hebrew- enabled. I ran vncviewer from an X system running linux. English was okay. Menus and windows were okay. Hebrew fonts were okay. Hebrew writing wasn't okay. When I pressed Alt+Shift to switch to hebrew-writing mode (It switched modes!), and tried to write in hebrew, nothing happened. The only characters that were displayed were the ones existing in english (pressing the ENGLISH key for semicolon produced a semicolon instead of a hebrew character, and the HEBREW key for semicolon produced the ENGLISH signal on it, and not semicolon). I think this has to do with keyboard mapping. Any Ideas? Regards, Yannai.

Northwestern falls to UIC
David Banks-US PRESSWIRE
Josh Crittle's go-ahead basket with 53 seconds remaining helped UIC to a 50-44 upset of Northwestern on Saturday. Crittle finished with a team-high 13 points, and Gary Talton's two free throws with 29 seconds left sealed the win for the Flames (6-1). The Wildcats committed 16 turnovers and were just 10 of 20 from the free-throw line.

Hi everyone,
After looking at the interesting and useful info in all the forums here, I decided to register today. I'm from Ashland, Oregon. Have road biked and mountain biked for years, with varying levels of dedication, and am getting back into it big time in retirement. I'm also getting more and more interested in urban cycling for transportation, and would like to get into touring.

A pretty innovative idea for the indecisive gentlemen. Depending on mood or occasion, one can switch between the loud Paul Smith signature stripes or a quiet red detailing. (That said, you can really go crazy and leave them mismatched). Aside from the colored enamel, these cufflinks are 100% brass and are proudly made in England.
Tag Archives: twist
Just as a preface, random is fun. In that spirit, coming across these bulbs from 1% Products was a delightful surprise. The first, "Swing" relies on coils encircling the bulb – giving the illusion of lateral movement. The "Gradation" bulb is made with glass of varying thickness to display a lighted spectrum. The pattern on the surface of "Basket" is self-evident. Finally, drawing inspiration from one's interaction with the object itself, the patter of "Twist" recalls the act of screwing the bulb into it's fixture.
Although they are designed to add character to your interior, it would be interesting to seem then actually in a space. One would have to have a very specific aesthetic to pull them off in my opinion, but as objects I think they are beautiful in and of themselves. Thoughts?
