Service industries in the U.S. expanded in April at the slowest pace in nine months, adding to signs that the world's largest economy is cooling.
The Institute for Supply Management's non-manufacturing index declined to 53.1 last month from 54.4 in March, a report from the Tempe, Arizona-based group showed today. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey called for a decline to 54. A reading above 50 indicates expansion in the industries that make up almost 90% of the economy.
The report, following the group's factory index that showed less growth among manufacturers, indicates federal budget cuts and higher payroll taxes are filtering through the economy. At the same time, a rebounding housing market remains a source of strength and is helping keep the expansion from faltering.
"We are starting to see some of the drag from fiscal tightening," Robert Dye, chief economist at Comerica Inc. in Dallas, said before the report. The figure is "consistent with an expanding service sector, but not robustly expanding."
Estimates of the 71 economists in the Bloomberg survey ranged from 52 to 55.1 for the index, which accounts for almost 90% of the economy and includes industries from utilities and retail to health care, housing and finance. Before today, the gauge averaged 53.6 since the recession ended in June 2009.
Another report today showed employers added more workers in April than projected. The 165,000 increase in payrolls followed a revised 138,000 gain in March that was bigger than initially forecast.
Employment Measure
The ISM non-manufacturing survey's employment gauge dropped to 52 in April, the lowest since November, from 53.3. The measure of new orders were little changed at 54.5 after 54.6. A gauge of business activity decreased to 55, the lowest since June, from 56.5. The index of prices paid fell to 51.2 from 55.9.
A measure of order backlogs decreased in April to 51.5 from 54.5 in the prior month.
"It's just the reaction to how the level of activity has just softened a little bit month over month," Anthony Nieves, chairman of ISM's non-manufacturing survey committee, said today on a call with reporters. "We'll watch how it trends out, but right now, it's definitely showing that demand has come off a little bit."
The ISM's factory survey earlier this week showed manufacturing, which accounts for about 12% of the economy, expanded in April at the slowest pace in four months as across-the-board federal budget cuts started to pinch. The gauge fell to 50.7 from 51.3 the prior month.

01-29-14 - TSA Pre-Check Enrollment Center now open at Fingerprinting Express
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) opened a TSA Pre-Check enrollment center in Reno on Wednesday, Jan. 29, 2014. This means Reno-Tahoe International Airport passengers who wish to enroll in TSA Pre-Check can now do so locally.
Pre-Check is an expedited screening program offered by TSA that allows pre-approved airline travelers to leave on their shoes, light outerwear and belt, keep their laptop in its case and their 3-1-1 compliant liquids/gels bag in a carry-on in select screening lanes.
The TSA Pre-Check enrollment center is inside the Fingerprinting Express office located at 1320 E. Plumb Lane, Suite A in Reno. Fingerprinting Express is just west of the airport, in Airport Square on Plumb Lane, between Harvard Way and I-395, across from Costco. It is open Monday – Friday 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. for Pre-Check registration. Enrollment is easy and only takes about 15 minutes.
TSA's Pre-Check Program opened at Reno-Tahoe International Airport in November 2013. But now passengers may register and complete required background checks locally, making sign up for frequent travelers that much easier.
Visit www.TSA.gov/tsa-precheck for details.

Eboo Patel, author of "Acts of Faith: The Story of an American Muslim, the Search for the Soul of a Generation" and founder and executive director of the Interfaith Youth Core based in Chicago, will speak at Northern Illinois University at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Carl Sandburg Auditorium of the Holmes Student Center.
"Acts of Faith" is the text for NIU's 2013-2014 Common Reading Experience, which was initiated at NIU in 2008 as a way of bringing together the university community around a common theme.
According to Denise Rode, director of First Year Experience and Orientation at NIU, "this year's book, "Acts of Faith" was selected because it treats a dimension of multiculturalism that we don't often talk about on college campuses – the diversity of faith and beliefs.
"Eboo Patel has a vision that people from different religions – as well as those who do not subscribe to a religion – should come together around their shared values on the common ground of service," she said in a news release.
Patel is the founder and executive director of the Chicago-based Interfaith Youth Core, a regular contributor to the Washington Post, National Public Radio, and CNN. He is a former member of the President's Advisory Council of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, and holds a doctorate in the sociology of religion from Oxford University, where he studied on a Rhodes scholarship.
Patel's remarks at NIU are titled "Many Beliefs, One Community: Exploring Service through the Lens of Interfaith Cooperation." The event is free and open to the public.
"Patel really wants to create a campus community where people understand one another, put aside differences, respect the differences and come together to work for a larger civic good," NIU Vice Provost Anne Birberick said in the release.
Patel will meet with students on campus throughout the day as well as a group of leaders from DeKalb and NIU faith-based organizations to discuss networking the local social service provisions provided by faith-based organizations and harnessing the power of youth.
"Patel's visit will lead to a number of interfaith campus and community initiatives in the DeKalb area. We encourage members of the community to come and hear Patel's message of finding common bonds through understanding others' beliefs and traditions," Rode said in the release.
Following the public presentation, Patel will autograph copies of his book, and there will be an opportunity to learn more about service opportunities on campus and in the community.
The community also is invited to attend a special reception to meet Eboo Patel from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at the Newman Student Catholic Center prior to his remarks in the Carl Sandburg Auditorium. All are welcome to attend this free presentation.
For more information, contact Denise Rode at email@example.com or call 815-753-0028.

You can push the bottom of the box in a bit and see what helmet is in there, if you happen to be looking for a particular one, heheh.

Okay, so why now?
By all accounts, and by his own admission, George Clooney was living a pretty enviable life as a bachelor. He had a thriving career, a close circle of friends and the luxury of a low-key dating life. But when the star met British attorney Amal Alamuddin, 36, it became clear he was ready for more.
"He has found someone who is as smart as he is and who is her own independent woman," a Clooney pal tells PEOPLE.
While the actor has had fulfilling relationships in the past – most recently with Stacy Keibler until the two split early last summer – sources say Clooney, 52, has arrived at a more mature emotional place in his life. And, say those who know him, he was ready.
"Amal seems to be the best fit for him he's ever had [in a partner]," the pal says.
The couple, who were first photographed stepping out together in London in October, are compatible in many ways. "She's on his level," a source who worked with Clooney said earlier this year.
The actor's pal says he's met his match in Alamuddin, noting, "She is not going to change, or give up being a human rights lawyer, because she is with George Clooney."

TOKYO (AP) — Japanese police have captured a rape suspect who fled from an interrogation room at a prosecutors' office near Tokyo following a rare, nationwide manhunt.
The suspect, Yuta Sugimoto, 20, was found Thursday hiding in a park in the nearby city of Yokohama.
Television showed police escorting Sugimoto to a waiting police car. He fled Tuesday while meeting with his lawyer at the prosecutors' office in Kawasaki, south of Tokyo.
Police on Wednesday mobilized 4,000 officers for the manhunt following an unsuccessful overnight search.
The escape also triggered fears among residents in the area. Some parents accompanied their children to schools, while students went to school in groups.
Police say Sugimoto was arrested Monday on suspicion of robbing and gang-raping a woman with another man.

House Dems Introduce Mental Health Bill: Democrats in the House of Representatives led by Rep. Ron Barber (D-Ariz.) have introduced new mental health legislation that proposes new initiatives to help prevent and treat mental illness. The "Strengthening Mental Health in Our Communities Act of 2014" would also boost care for schoolchildren, veterans and seniors, and urges increased research on serious mental illness. It proposes a new White House Office of Mental Health Policy to ensure agencies are collaborating to help people with mental illness with care, housing, job support and other services. And it would reauthorize the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), which provides grants for community-based mental health groups. Mental Health America expressed its support for the legislation. The Barber bill differs from legislation introduced by Rep. Tim Murphy (R-Pa). That bill would expand use of Assisted Outpatient Treatment (AOT) and condition receipt of mental health block grant funds on states enacting AOT. It would also undermine e the Protection and Advocacy function in every state by drastically reducing funding by eighty-five percent. Additionally, the bill would eliminate programs at SAMHSA and remove its oversight function. And it would loosen privacy protections. (The Hill, 5/6/14)
Children with ADHD More Likely to Experience Social Difficulties: New research indicates that children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be more likely to be part of families that are affected by poverty, divorce, neighborhood violence and substance use. Researchers analyzed the answers of parents of 65,680 children aged 6-17 who responded to a 2011 survey. About 12 percent of the kids had been diagnosed with ADHD, and their parents reported higher rates of various problems than the parents of kids without ADHD did. Researchers say knowledge about the prevalence and types of adverse experiences among children diagnosed with ADHD may guide efforts to address trauma and improve screening, diagnostic accuracy and management. (HealthDay News, 5/6/14)
British Charity Reports Rise in Afghanistan Vets Seeking Mental Health Help: A British veterans' mental health charity reported a 57 percent increase over one year in Afghanistan veterans seeking support. The group Combat Stress received referrals for 358 veterans last year, compared to 228 in 2012. Its caseload now includes more than 660 veterans. The increase is linked to the withdrawal of British troops in Afghanistan from all but two bases in Helmand province. The charity said it found that veterans wait an average of 13 years after serving before seeking help, but the average time has now fallen to 18 months for Afghanistan veterans. Combat Stress also reported that their total caseload of 5,400 veterans across the country was the highest number in its 95-year history. (Time, 5/12/14)

Integrating Mental Health with Ob/Gyn Visits Eases Women's Depression: Women who received collaborative care for depression at obstetrics and gynecology clinics showed fewer symptoms after treatment than women receiving usual depression care, according to a new study. Researchers found that collaborative care helped decrease depression symptoms for most women by at least 50 percent after one year of treatment. Women who received collaborative care also were more likely to return for follow-up care and reported greater satisfaction with the care they received, researchers report in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology. The approach, called Depression Attention for Women Now (DAWN), was tested at Harborview Medical Center and University of Washington Medical Center's Roosevelt Clinic. Of the 205 participants, more than half were managing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), as well as depression symptoms. Many had low incomes and little or no health insurance. For the study, women were randomly assigned to receive the collaborative care intervention or typical care. The women in each group received treatment for up to 12 months. Follow-up continued for an additional six months, the researchers noted. Women who received collaborative care could opt for follow-ups in person or by phone, and choose whether they wanted counseling, medication or a combination of both. (PsychCentral.com, 5/10/14)

It is the man, not the gun, that is capable of committing acts of evil.
That was the message Glenn Beck conveyed throughout his highly anticipated keynote speech at the 2013 NRA Convention on Saturday. He made that case using storied antique firearms as he taught America's captivating history through guns. Make no mistake, the history behind some of the guns Beck handled on stage will blow you away.
One story about a particular shotgun, wielded by a "naked hippie" shooting at birds decades ago, seemed to have the most impact. Beck explained that after receiving a early morning call about the naked hippie shooting birds out of season, police in California arrested the said hippie and confiscated his WWII-era shotgun.
That man turned out to be a notoriously evil serial killer known to the world as Charles Manson. After his gun was taken away, he then turned to a knife to commit at least nine grisly murders with his cult group.
"Charlie Manson had his gun taken away. Charlie Manson didn't use a gun. He killed with a knife," Beck told a crowd of thousands at the George R. Brown Convention Center Saturday.
"We have to admit two things," he added. "That weapons will always find their way into the hands of bad people, always…but we must declare this: that guns must remain in the hands of good people."
Watch the highlights from Beck's NRA speech below:
He told several other stories about antique firearms, including one about a New York police officer whose revolver was found in the rubble following the 9/11 terrorist attacks in 2001. While victims were running away from the horrific scene, heroes like Walter Weaver, a member of the NYPD and a lifetime NRA member, were running in.
After the towers fell and the nation mourned, Beck said, responders sifted through the rubble, and only found a small reminder of Walter Weaver. Beck then held up the revolver for the audience to see, calling it "a silent token of liberty."
But Beck first brought out an antique rifle that was used by the U.S. the "first time we fought Muslim extremists" — the Barbary pirates. Beck said Thomas Jefferson warned that Muslim extremists are not going to go anywhere. The gun was later picked up and used by a Muslim extremist.
"So what is this gun, good or evil? It is nothing! A gun is only a reflection of the people that use it," he declared.
Beck didn't discriminate politically as he blasted Democrats and Republicans for promoting and implementing a progressive ideology that is "antithetical" to our Constitutional Republic. Unfortunately, he explained, the problem is everywhere — in media, churches and educational systems across the country.
He jabbed a number of celebrities and politicians for anti-gun hypocrisy, including Michael Moore, Jim Carrey and, of course, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Beck said there is a "tough journey ahead" for gun owners in America, proclaiming that "this weekend, I believe, is one of the most important moments in American history and the defining moment for the NRA."
He explained that big government progressives actually believe they can make better decisions for Americans than they can make themselves. "I will not comply!" Beck said emphatically, drawing the first of several standing ovations during his speech.
But the four things Americans need to know for the battle ahead, according to Beck, are: "What we fight, who we fight, why we fight, and how we fight."
'Guns Save Lives'
Beck also told some of the many, many stories TheBlaze has covered about good, law-abiding people with firearms defending themselves, their families and property.
On April 4, just one month ago in Portland, Oregon, a woman was attacked around 10 p.m. after she had gotten out of her car, Beck told a captivated audience. A man approached her from behind and dragged her backwards by her ponytail. We know what would have happened next, but this woman had a gun. She pointed it at the man and "he ran like a little girl," he said.
He went on to tell the story of a elderly woman in Youngstown, Ohio, who was strapped to an oxygen tank at her home when someone broke the glass on her front door and entered. She retrieved her revolver and warned him to leave, and when he didn't, she shot him and held him for police.
Additionally, in Texas recently, attackers sexually assaulted a mother and her daughter, Beck said. The woman's son was also tied up but managed to get free and grab a handgun, sending the two men fleeing from the home.
"It happens every day. Every day," Beck said, "and it seems to me that we are the only major media outlet in the country with the guts to report it. Why? Because the truth has no agenda…guns save lives!"
He went on: "They're counting on you to be quiet. For our soldiers to come home, to sit down and to be quiet. Not to have the courage like so many soldiers to come home and tell the truth like Marcus Luttrell and Chris Kyle—or their sweet dear wives who pick up the torch and carry on."
'Facts Matter'
Combating the gun control narrative pushed by the media and politicians, Beck threw some cold water on anti-gun advocates' arguments by laying out some cold hard facts during his speech.
"We should ban guns like they did in England, should we?" Beck asked sarcastically, quickly adding that gun-related crimes doubled in England within a decade of the gun ban. And four years after guns were banned, the English Bobby began to carry guns for the first time. "Gun bans double murder rates," he said.
He said there are 30,000 firearms-related deaths per year in the United States, but 65 percent of those are suicide related. Meanwhile, most of the 35 percent of deaths remaining are for self-protection or involving cops in the line of duty. Once you factor suicide, cops and protection, the murder rate gets cut by "over half," he explained.
He also took a shot at President Barack Obama. After saying more gun-related deaths occur during bad economic times, Beck told Obama, "If you want to save lives, Mr. President, fix the economy."
Beck also invoked the late Charlton Heston, belting out his famous "out of my cold dead heads" line.
'I Might Need More Than Six Bullets, Thank You'
Addressing those that believe the government could never turn on its citizenry, Beck reminded the NRA audience of when the U.S. government disarmed the Lakota Indians for their "protection" before killing 150 men, women and children after a gun accidentally discharged as a deaf boy attempted to hold onto his gun.
"The creek was called 'Wounded Knee.' The year was 1890…This gun here actually came from that tribe," Beck said, holding up the antique rifle.
Imagine the difference guns would have meant to the average African-American living in the South in 1850 — or even after they were freed in 1880s, Beck posited. He said even after the Emancipation Proclamation, slavery was not entirely over.
"It's why Martin Luther King marched," he added. "It didn't end. Why?" The answer, according to Beck, is that pro-slavery Democrats in the South tried disarming blacks because it was the last thing they could do to prevent them from truly witnessing freedom.
Beck told the audience that Republicans and blacks ended up on the Ku Klux Klan kill list during the fight for racial equality and klansmen went door-to-door killing whites and blacks out of sheer hatred.
"Now if you [don't] have a gun and the Klan comes knocking at your door, how is that freedom exactly?" he asked, later adding: "If the Klan or the Crips or any of the gangs coming across the border unimpeded…come knocking at my door, I might need more than six bullets, thank you."
Beck said that there is a "different enemy" working together that wants to disarm Americans because they know if you lose the Second Amendment, you lose the 1st, the 4th (unreasonable searches), the 5th, (right to a grand jury) the 10th (states' rights) the 14th (slavery), the 19th (women's voting), and then all you'll be left with is the 16th Amendment, which is the income tax.
'It Is the Man, Not the Gun'
Beck eventually circled back to the theme of his keynote speech.
"It is not the gun or the knife, or as Cain discovered with Abel, a rock," he said, "but the cold heart filled with error, darkness and coldness. That is the problem."
He urged his audience to build others up, to teach them, to heal them. He said liberty-loving Americans will work side-by-side together for freedom; white, black, Hispanic or native-American. "It doesn't matter," he noted.
"We will work together as Americans not only to preserve our rights, but the rights of our children to be safe, our wives and daughters to not be held at knife or gunpoint by a rapist and our most precious and vulnerable little ones to have the right to survive a simple walk down a city street or God forbid, survive a day public education," Beck said to thunderous applause.
Beck concluded his powerful keynote speech by quoting Winston Churchill, saying "we will fight your lies and we will counter them with love, peace and equal justice for all mankind."
As Beck's final words rang out, the crowd went wild as a noisy fusion of cheers and applause tore through the auditorium. The crowd stayed on their feet for a considerable amount of time, wrapping up a very successful second day of the convention.
After his speech, Beck had one more surprise. NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre made his way to the stage and presented him with a framed signature of the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln.

Date: Feb 22, 2007
Press Release Number: 15
The Port Authority Board of Commissioners today authorized construction of the Freedom Tower, clearing the way for nearly $500 million in construction contract awards now, and up to $1 billion in total awards by the middle of this year.
During today's meeting, the Board advanced the $2.877 billion project and also authorized 1 World Trade Center LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Port Authority, to finalize approximately $492.25 million in Freedom Tower construction and professional services contracts.
Bids for more than half of the tower construction have already been received and are within 4 percent of budget, well within planned-for contingencies common to projects of this scale.
The Board's authorization to build the Freedom Tower follows a commitment the Port Authority made when it authorized implementation of the Conceptual Framework with Silverstein Properties on September 21, 2006, to expedite rebuilding at the World Trade Center site.
Under the agreement, the agency committed to build the Freedom Tower and Tower 5, while Silverstein Properties assumed responsibility for building Towers 2, 3 and 4.
Port Authority Chairman Anthony R. Coscia said, "Last year, the Port Authority took on the enormous responsibility of building two of the biggest projects on the World Trade Center site – the Freedom Tower and Memorial – in addition to its commitment to build the World Trade Center Transportation Hub. We take our responsibilities seriously, and today's actions are a sign of our commitment to get these projects done on schedule and in a fiscally responsible manner. The nation remains focused on our work to rebuild the site, and it is our duty to complete these massive, complex projects without delay."
Port Authority Executive Director Anthony E. Shorris said, "The Freedom Tower project has been building momentum since the Port Authority took on the job last year, and today's action will keep construction rolling. Major steel columns have been installed and thousands of cubic yards of concrete have already been poured for the Freedom Tower, and we are making significant progress on the foundations for the Memorial and Transportation Hub. With all of these projects taking shape, we believe this will be a banner year for the rebuilding."
Construction of the Freedom Tower began in April 2006, with work on the tower's footings and foundation. When opened in 2012, the tower will include 69 tenant floors, a two-level lobby, four lower- and five upper-level mechanical floors, a two-level broadcast facility, an indoor observation deck and a skyline restaurant level.
The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey operates many of the busiest and most important transportation links in the region. They include John F. Kennedy International, Newark Liberty International, LaGuardia and Teterboro airports; AirTrain JFK and AirTrain Newark; the George Washington Bridge and Bus Station; the Lincoln and Holland tunnels; the three bridges between Staten Island and New Jersey; the PATH (Port Authority Trans-Hudson) rapid-transit system; the Port Authority-Downtown Manhattan Heliport; Port Newark; the Elizabeth-Port Authority Marine Terminal; the Howland Hook Marine Terminal on Staten Island; the Brooklyn Piers/Red Hook Container Terminal; and the Port Authority Bus Terminal in midtown Manhattan. The agency also owns the 16-acre World Trade Center site in Lower Manhattan.
The Port Authority is financially self-supporting and receives no tax revenue from either state.


text: Epping dump cats left on their own By JASON SCHREIBERUnion Leader Correspondent May 14. 2013 10:43PM The so-called "cat condo at the Epping recycling center will be taken down after a vote by selectmen. (JASON SCHREIBER PHOTO) EPPING — The feral cats living at the town's recycling center will soon be on their own for food, water, and shelter. In a unanimous decision, selectmen voted Monday to end all care for the cats, meaning they can remain at the facility but residents will no longer be allowed to give them food or water. A small cat "condominium" that's provided shelter will be removed. "They're used to living off the land. They'll be fine," Selectman Jim McGeough said. But members of a local feral cat organization disagree. "It's really disappointing they're being so naive about the whole thing. These cats will starve to death because they won't have somebody feeding them," said Michelle Gorneau of North Hampton, treasurer for Seacoast Area Feline Education and Rescue, a Hampton-based nonprofit volunteer organization that traps feral cats, provides medical care, including rabies shots and other vaccines, and spays or neuters them before releasing them back to their home territory. Monday's decision follows disagreements in recent years over whether the town should allow residents to care for the eight to 10 stray cats that have made their home at the recycling center at 135 Old Hedding Road. Selectmen didn't mind them at first because they helped control the rodent population; residents were allowed to supplement their natural diet with cat food. Some selectmen have voiced concerns about overfeeding, which they have said could make the cats less likely to hunt for rodents. "The cats were there because they were mousers and that was a good thing," Selectman Karen Falcone said. "Now we're feeding the cats, watering the cats, and they have a cat condominium. I have a problem with that." But taking away their food, water and shelter could be considered animal cruelty under state law, said Steve Sprowl, humane agent for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in Stratham. "They need to do something with them other than just leave them there on their own," he said Tuesday. Earlier this year, selectmen agreed that it was time to move the cats out of the recycling center to a new home. However, at Monday's meeting, they decided against creating a new shelter elsewhere and relocating them. According to Lynn Barrett, president of SAFER, the town made an agreement with her group in 2008 when it helped trap the cats and had them spayed, neutered, and given shots. Barrett said that under SAFER's agreement, the town agreed to allow the cats to be returned to the recycling center, where volunteers not affiliated with SAFER would coordinate the food, water and shelter. By taking away the food, water and shelter, Barrett said the town is reneging on its deal. Gorneau said feral cats can't catch enough rodents to survive on their own. Even with the cats hanging out at the center, the town is still paying for an exterminator to provide rodent control, according to Dennis Koch, the town's public works coordinator. Selectman Tom Gauthier, board chairman, also expressed concern about the town's liability if a cat bites or scratches someone visiting the recycling center. At one point during Monday's meeting, Falcone suggested rounding up the cats and delivering them to the SPCA, but her motion failed 2-2. Sprowl said Tuesday that even if they had voted to bring them to the SPCA, the organization wouldn't take the cats because they're feral. firstname.lastname@example.com Animals Politics Epping Top Section Stories

Wearing a Temple hoodie, new Eagles defensive coordinator Todd Bowles channeled a little bit of Hyman Roth from "The Godfather, Part II" at his introductory press conference. It was the this-is-the-business-we-have-chosen line from the movie, and it was used in reference to the sudden firing of his predecessor, Juan Castillo.
"Me and Juan had a great relationship," said Bowles, who was brought in to coach the secondary this season. "To come in this morning and find out...He's a great guy, he's a great coach, he works hard, we had a great relationship as a staff. That's going to be sorely missed.
"But for us, in this business we chose, we've got to move on and try to make the best of what we can. That's what we've got to do."
With that, a page turns.
"The only way (the defense) can be different is on the scoreboard," Bowles said. "Hopefully, we come up with wins, it'll look different. But in the end, the main goal is to get the victory, however we've got to get it."
Bowles also said, "We've got to finish at the end of the games. We've got to finish and win games. The bottom line is, when you're out there on defense, it doesn't matter what happens. When you're out there at the end of the game, you've got to finish."
"Tweak" was the word he used to describe what he would change. Bowles said he has not yet decided if he will work from the sidelines, as Castillo did, or from a skybox, where the view is better and the emotions are less hot. And as for new tactics, he naturally was pretty circumspect.
As for the wide-9 defensive front, which has drawn so much commentary since defensive line coach Jim Washburn brought it here last year, Bowles said, "We run a wide-9 -- that's what we do. But game plan-wise, it depends on whether we do other things along with it."
And blitzing?
"If it works, great," Bowles said, smiling. "If not, don't do it."

I think that the political model suggested by Buddhist ethics was well anticiplated in E F Schumaker's classic Small is Beautiful: Economics as if People Mattered. The main themes of this book, which has been in print since initial publication in 1973, is on sustainability and community-level economics and development. I suppose Mohamed Ynuis' 'micro-banking' initiative might have drawn on that model to some extent.Indrajala wrote: In a dog eat dog world, I can't really see Buddhist values being appropriate at a national level. It would possibly prove quite disastrous if you were in any kind of position of power or not protected by a big brother.
I think the best overall political model for this development is a hybrid of democratic socialism and 'small-l' liberalism, without stifling innovation on the one hand, whilst restraining the excesses of Big Capitalism on the other.
Of course in many ways it is an impossible dream as we are so overpowered by massive corporations, super-powers and immense populations all over the world.
I also agree there will often be a disparity between a conscientious system of values and the demands of 'real-politik' in a dangerous and unstable world. That is why, as you well know, it pays not to be too attached to anything, although that is much easier said than done.

Man charged with hacking brother, mother to death found guilty of driving with a suspended licenseBy DAN SEUFERT
Union Leader Correspondent
July 12. 2013 3:38PM
FRANKLIN – Now charged with the hacking deaths of his mother and brother in May, a judge found Shawn Carter guilty Friday morning of driving with a suspended license, charges that kept him in custody until murder charges could be brought.
At his arraignment Wednesday, Carter, 31, was ordered held without bail pending a probable cause hearing later this month on second-degree murder charges alleging he hacked his brother and mother to death in May. The bodies of Timothy Carther, 39, and Priscilla Carter, 59, were found May 24 at the family's just-rented home at 20 Sunset Drive in Belmont.
Carter, 31, has been charged with alternate theories of second-degree murder. One set alleges Shawn Carter recklessly caused the deaths, the other that he knowingly caused the deaths, according to Senior Assistant Attorney General Jeffery Strelzin. The manner of death for both victims was multiple chop wounds on either May 23 or 24.
In court Friday, officers Stephen Akerstrom and Gary Boisvert of the Belmont Police Department testified they saw the murder victims that morning and later stopped Carter in Tilton with the help of local police because they were looking for Priscilla Carter's car in connection with the homicide investigation.
While an alert had gone out for police to be on the lookout for Shawn Carter related to the homicide investigation, that wasn't what precipitated the motor vehicle stop, prosecutor Ryan McFarland told the court.
"There were officer safety issues," McFarland said, "but when the officers stopped (Carter) they did not know who was in the car."
Carter was taken into custody on Route 3 about 2:20 p.m., a few hours after the bodies of his mother and brother were discovered.
Public defender Eric Wolpin asked the court to dismiss the driving under suspension charge and bail violation charges against Carter because police had insufficient cause for the motor vehicle stop on May 24. The public defender said the state also failed to provide sufficient information about the stop and arrest to the defense.
But Judge Edward Gordon disagreed, finding the state had sufficient cause to stop Carter and found him guilty.
"I think the state has shown that the stop was made on the basis that the vehicle belonged to (Priscilla Carter), and the car was missing from the scene that morning," the judge said.
On the traffic charges, Carter was given a $500 fine and 30 days in jail; he was credited with 15 days of pretrial confinement.
A probable cause hearing on the murder charges is scheduled for July 22 at 1 p.m.

After an unpredictable Ravens' offseason that included a major injury to one of their best players, a slew or free agent exits and the threat of holdouts from two of their Pro Bowl performers, Ravens coach John Harbaugh greeted reporters Tuesday looking tanned, well-rested and relaxed.
"It's been a good few weeks," said Harbaugh, flashing a wide smile.
The Ravens will hold their first full-team practice of training camp Thursday with plenty of question marks, but far fewer distractions than they were poised to have several weeks ago.
Ray Rice, their best offensive player and one of the top all-purpose weapons in the NFL, was at the Under Armour Performance Center on Tuesday a week removed from getting a five-year contract extension that makes him one of the highest paid running backs in football. Quarterback Joe Flacco, who spread passes around to a plethora of young receivers during the hour-long practice, has yet to get the contract extension that he seeks, but there has been enough progress made where it now appears to be a matter of when — rather than if — he gets his new deal.
While reigning NFL Player of the Year Terrell Suggs remains sidelined and will miss a good part —if not all of the 2012 season — Harbaugh revealed that his team is mostly healthy heading into training camp, and two of the previously bigger concerns — rookie guard Kelechi Osemele (back spasms) and second-year defensive end Pernell McPhee (knee surgery) — are expected to return to practice soon.
And then there's the status of safety Ed Reed, who spent the offseason hinting at retirement or an extended holdout in a series of radio interviews. Harbaugh said he spoke to the perennial Pro Bowl safety recently and he fully expects Reed to report to training camp with the rest of the Ravens' veterans Wednesday.
"Ed Reed plans on being here," said Harbaugh following a partial-squad practice attended by quarterbacks, rookies and select veterans. "I talked with Ed. I had a great conversation and I'm looking forward to seeing him."
Reed, an eight-time Pro Bowler, didn't show up to the veteran mandatory minicamp and had talked about feeling disrespected by the Ravens as he entered the final year on his contract. The situation between the Ravens and one of the franchise's greatest players had the potential to get ugly but it appears that Reed is willing to put the issues behind him. He told the crowd at his charity golf tournament last week that he plans to play his 11th NFL season.
There was also the potential for a standoff between the Ravens and Rice, who would have been in line to play the season under the franchise tag before the two sides reached a five-year, $35 million deal before last Monday's deadline to sign designated franchise players.
"It means we'll have Ray here for a long period of time which is a great thing," Harbaugh said. "Congratulations to Ray. I thought both sides did a great job getting the deal done. Nobody was happier than me, except for Ray. It's just great for everybody."
And that includes veteran center Matt Birk who was one lineman to help pave the way for Rice to gain an NFL-high 2,068 yards from scrimmage last year and a franchise-record 15 touchdowns.
"I guess it's nice. You don't have to answer those questions, and it's great for Ray," Birk said. "On a personal level, I think to a man, everybody's happy for him because he's a hard-working guy, a great guy to have in the locker room, a great talent, all those things. It's always nice when the right people have success. So we're happy for him, and I'm sure he's happy and just focused on football."
Birk had surgery this offseason to repair a varicose veins problem in his legs. However, he participated fully in Tuesday's workout that included only four Ravens watching from the sidelines.
McPhee, who finished second on the team to Suggs with six sacks last year and figured to step into a more prominent role after the departure of starting defensive end Cory Redding, had his knee scoped earlier this offseason but he's making progress and Harbaugh hopes that he can start practicing "very, very soon."
Osemele, the rookie second-round pick who was expected to compete with veteran Bobbie Williams for the left guard job, has been dealing with muscle spasms in his back but he should be removed from the physically unable to perform list and resume practicing by the end of the week.
"We're just going to take it easy, just make sure we're OK with that, but he's looking really good," Harbaugh said. "As we go through these couple of days, he should be able to practice very, very soon, hopefully [Wednesday] or Thursday."
Beyond Suggs, the only current longer-term absences will likely be reserve tackle Jah Reid who re-strained his right calf, an injury he initially sustained at the veteran mandatory minicamp, and wide receiver/kick returner David Reed who tore an anterior cruciate ligament in a game last December. Harbaugh said that it would be a "huge upset" if Reed returned during training camp, but the coach said that the third-year receiver is progressing quickly.
The Ravens, who are a little more than $3 million under the salary cap, also continue to look for ways to augment their depth. Tuesday they brought in veteran guard Eric Steinbach, a former Cincinnati Bengal and Cleveland Brown who missed all of last season with a back injury, and several outside linebackers.
"It's like we say every year, we're always looking for players, we're always looking to upgrade," Harbaugh said. "If you have an opportunity where good players are available, we're going to try and take a look at them. We're going to try and make the roster better any way we can at any time. If we can create even better competition and put more good players in the mix with the kind of financial resources that we have, we always want to do that. Eric Steinbach is a heck of a player.

It can be very difficult to determine what causes eczema. However, there has been some research completed that will point to different things that may cause this skin condition to get worse. When you have an understanding of what can cause the problem to get worse you may be able to take steps to help keep it under control. That is what many people with eczema want, to keep it under control.
The first thing that can cause eczema to flare up and get out of control may be a change in temperature or the humidity. You may need to find a way to keep humidity down in your home. Another thing that may cause this to get worse could be different chemicals and alcohols that come into contact with your skin. Because of that, you may want to pay attention to the different types of soaps and body washes that you are using. If you notice that a certain type is making your eczema worse you will want to stop using it.
Stress may also contribute to eczema. If you are suffering from really bad eczema you may want to consider the amount of stress that you are under. By identifying the stress and working to decrease it, you may be able to get your eczema under control. Find ways to relax and enjoy life. Take a walk, spend time with friends, read a book; whatever it takes to decrease the stress in your life.
While all of these things may make your eczema worse, controlling them may not solve your problem. You may need to use a strong product that will help clear up your eczema. You can talk to your doctor about whatever product you have in mind. He or she will be able to help you determine what is best for you.

"Order of Worship" Ω
Let us draw near to our heavenly Father through His only Son Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit, approaching the throne of grace with confidence that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need:
You are God: we praise you; You are the Lord; we acclaim you; You are the eternal Father: All creation worships you. To you all angels, all the powers of heaven, Cherubim and Seraphim, sing in endless praise: Holy, holy, holy Lord, God of power and might, heaven and earth are full of your glory. The glorious company of apostles praise you. The noble fellowship of prophets praise you. The white-robed army of martyrs praise you. Throughout the world the holy Church acclaims you; Father, of majesty unbounded, your true and only Son, worthy of all worship, and the Holy Spirit, advocate and guide. You, Christ, are the king of glory, the eternal Son of the Father. When you became man to set us free you did not shun the Virgin's womb. You overcame the sting of death and opened the kingdom of heaven to all believers. You are seated at God's right hand in glory. We believe that you will come and be our judge. Come then, Lord, and help your people, bought with the price of your own blood, and bring us with your saints to glory everlasting. (Morning Prayer II: You Are God — Book of Common Prayer 95-96)
Lord God, almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day: Preserve us with your mighty power, that we may not fall into sin, nor be overcome by adversity; and in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (Morning II: Collect for Grace — Book of Common Prayer 100)
Psalm for the Day – Psalm 119:97-112 (Sing)
Reading the Word – Daniel 5
A period of silence may follow for reflection & recording insights. (For Reflection)
As we spend time with God in prayer (Listening as well as offering up prayers of Adoration, Confession of Sin, Thanksgiving, Surrender, & Supplication), we might include in our praying:
+The Jesus Creed*
+The Lord's Prayer** (Prayed, Used as a Guide, or Both)
+Prayers for Ourselves, Our Families, the Church, & the World (Guide)
* – "Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these" (Mark 12:29-31, NIV 2011).
** – Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
Ω NOTE: The following "Order of Worship" is offered as a possible way into prayerful communion with the Triune God of the Bible and into earnestly listening for God's revelation of His nature, saving work, and will through the Scriptures. However, depending upon your time limitations, interests, and convictions, one can "pick and choose" what it will look like for him or her to seek God through disciplined engagement with Scripture ("Read") and Prayer ("Pray") with the goal of receiving and reflecting the love of God ("Love") every day of our lives ("Daily").

Report of armed man puts Kingston school in lockdownBy JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent
September 30. 2013 9:26PM
KINGSTON — A former Sanborn Regional High School student is facing charges after police responded to the school on Monday to investigate reports that he threatened several individuals with a firearm in the parking lot.
Timothy M. Soucy, 18, of Danville was charged with two counts of criminal threatening following the scare that began around 12:15 p.m. when police from several agencies responded to the school on Route 111.
The school was locked down, and police surrounded the building.
A short time later, authorities converged on Soucy's Danville residence where he and a female were taken into custody.
State Police Lt. Chris Vetter said Soucy is the only person considered a suspect in the incident, and that the female was later released and isn't expected to face charges.
Vetter said police are still trying to determine whether Soucy had a weapon when he was at the school.
"There was an allegation that there was, and we're trying to confirm it," Vetter said.
The investigation continues and additional charges are possible, police said.
A vehicle parked at Soucy's residence was towed away.
School Superintendent Brian Blake issued a statement shortly after 1:30 p.m. to say the situation was under control.
"At approximately 12:15 p.m. ... school administrators were notified of a potential security issue involving a weapon outside of the school building," Blake said in his statement."The school took immediate action by notifying the Kingston Police Department and placed the school into a lockdown," he said. "The Kingston Police Department, in conjunction with other law enforcement agencies, responded, deemed the school to be safe, and determined that no weapon had entered the building."The incident alarmed many parents and students.
Sophomore Joey Thibeau, 16, said it was his first day attending Sanborn High after moving to town.
"It was kind of confusing. We heard the cops and cruisers, and wondered what was happening," he said.
He said students remained in their classrooms with the doors locked."I was concerned, being his first day," said his father, Brian.Anyone with information regarding the investigation is asked to contact State Police Sgt. Melissa Robles or Trooper John Kelly at 223-8490.

An ugly ass, a nasty ass. A reference to the "city" of Ashtabula in Ohio and its ugly ass inhabitants. Can also be used to describe an ugly blemish or physical flaw.
by :sco: July 02, 2010
A shithole town in Northeast Ohio that you have to make up party organizations to have fun in. See carpe noctem 3.
A car with no wheels. That's a metaphor. We have all the parts, and maybe at one point in time we could have been cool, but then we fucked up.
by Carpe Noctem March 28, 2005
pretty much the shittiest place in ohio. where you cann't drive down the street without almost hitting some white trash asshole walking down the middle of the road holding 5 save-a-lot bags. where the biggest and most exciting store in town is super walmart. where the only thing to do on a friday night is go bowling or to b-dubs. thank god it's only an hour from cleveland.
If you ever have the opportunity to move out of Ashtabula, TAKE IT!
by bula hater May 07, 2006
A town full of niggers, spics, and poor ass white trash. Its law enforcement is corrupt along with its politicians. This town was once a great place to live but has since been over run by ignorant assholes! If you dont like to work and want to live off the system, then bula is the place for you. Want to sell drugs and steal, want to own a shit house, want to see more inter-racial couples then anywhere else...well come on down to A town.

Yeah, if I knew Petraeus was having an affair, I would have voted for Romney.
http://www.newsmax.com/newswidget/pe...n=widgetphase2FBI Suppressed Petraeus Scandal to Protect PresidentSunday, 11 Nov 2012 09:25 PM
By Ronald Kessler
Ronald Kessler reporting from Washington, D.C. FBI agents investigating CIA Director David Petraeus's affair were shocked when told by bureau officials that despite the national security implications, no action would be taken on their findings until after the presidential election: Only then would President Obama ask for Petraeus resignation.
The White House claims President Obama and his national security advisors were first informed of the Petraeus' affair on Thursday, two days after the election.
But the official timeline strains credulity. Senior FBI officials suppressed disclosure of the highly sensitive case, apparently to avoid embarrassment to Obama during his re-election campaign.
On Oct. 10, I was contacted by a longtime FBI source who told me that a bureau investigation had uncovered Petraeus affair with a journalist and that it could potentially jeopardize national security.
The veteran agent related to me that FBI agents assigned to the case were outraged by what were they were told by senior officials: The FBI was going to hold in limbo their findings until after the election.
The decision was made to delay the resignation apparently to avoid potential embarrassment to the president before the election, an FBI source told me. To leave him in such a sensitive position where he was vulnerable to potential blackmail for months compromised our security and is inexcusable.
My source said the FBI had been investigating the matter since last spring and the probe was considered among the most sensitive investigations the bureau was handling.
Both FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III and the Justice Department were aware of the investigation, according to my source. The source did not specifically know whether Obama, Attorney General Eric Holder or FBI Director Mueller had given the order to delay taking action until after the election.
However, Mueller meets at least once a week with the president and routinely informs him of highly sensitive investigations and threats. An FBI investigation of the CIA director should have been at the top of that list.
In fact, it would have been a scandal if the FBI had not informed the president or the attorney general of an investigation of the CIA director.
Last Friday, the White House announced that Petraeus had resigned over an extramarital affair. At the time, I was completing my own investigation into the matter based on what my source had told me.
On the same day, my report for Newsmax, "FBI Investigation Led to Petraeus Resignation," revealed for the the first time that an an FBI investigation of Petraeus' emails had triggered his resignation.
Since then, the White House has claimed that the president was surprised when told of the FBI investigation two days after the election.
If the president genuinely did not know about the probe, it would constitute malfeasance by the White House. But my FBI sources doubt the order to suppress the probes findings until after the election while taking a chance with the nations security was made by the bureau.
For my recently published book, The Secrets of the FBI, FBI Director Mueller gave me unprecedented access to the bureau, including to agents who told me normally classified details of how FBI agents break into homes and offices to plant bugging devices in terrorist, espionage, Mafia, and political corruption cases.
In my opinion, Mueller is a man of impeccable integrity. He would not have acquiesced to delaying action on the bureaus findings unless ordered to do so by the attorney general or by the president.
Since this was not a criminal matter, Mueller may have justified his decision by saying it is up to the government agency who employs the individual or the White House to take action. But the decision to delay action on the Petraeus case when the fact that he had placed himself in a compromising position was known by the FBI for months clearly created a security risk.
As FBI agents and CIA officers tell me, such a delay could have meant that foreign intelligence service officers or criminals who may have learned of the affair could have blackmailed Petraeus into giving up the countrys most sensitive secrets. Given his position, those secrets would have included penetrations of Russian communications, bugging of foreign embassies, identities of assets risking their lives to give the U.S. valuable information on terrorists, and identities of terrorists who are about to be killed by drones.
My source told me that the investigation into Petraeus affair began when FBI agents mistook a reference in one of his emails to under the desk to mean corruption, as in payments under the table.
While the sources information was correct, news reports later said the broader FBI investigation began last spring when Paula Broadwell, with whom Petraeus was allegedly having an affair, allegedly began sending threatening emails to another woman she viewed as a potential threat to her relationship with Petraeus.
It turned out that under the desk was a reference to having sex under the desk with Petraeus, who is married.
Broadwell, who is married to a radiologist, was embedded with Petraeus while writing a book about him when he was stationed in Kabul. A triathlete, she has degrees from West Point and Harvard and holds the rank of major in the Army Reserve. She has not commented on her role in Petraeus resignation.
Michael Kortan, the FBI's assistant director for public affairs, had no immediate comment.
Yeah, if I knew Petraeus was having an affair, I would have voted for Romney.
Newsmax is a joke put on this world by neocons who think we should still be in Iraq. The idea that people vote for Romney because Petreaus, a Republican btw, had an affair is asinine like everything else in that rag.
2. Apparently it may have been longer than 3 days that this was known. In any case, the question here is of priorities. Was the election put ahead of national security?
Whether or not it may have had an effect on voters (perhaps it would not have), the question worth asking is did someone fear that it may have had an effect on the re-election chances and decide to withhold information until after the election? A very fair question in my opinion.
In any case, assuming Obama knew nothing of the investigation, why was it hidden from him? Why did this months long investigation break 2 days after the election? You claim mere coincidence. Is this what you are sticking with? You may end up correct in the end, but it is certainly worth discussing. Seems a little too tidy and convenient for me.
Arg! Sex!
Oh no!
Someone got laid! National security!
Sent from my 8.6 acre property with 4 bedroom house with waterfront views and low utility costs because of the gas well on my property using fireworks...
Have you seen Dave's wife?
Freaking nasty. The Biographer was a def step up.
Good for him.
Sent from my 8.6 acre property with 4 bedroom house with waterfront views and low utility costs because of the gas well on my property using fireworks...
Perhaps there is blackmail but perhaps its coming from within the CIA from folks who were looking to get rid of Petraeus and Obama was kept out of the loop. See , I can play the speculation game too.
Can you please explain to me how national security was compromised by withholding this info from the public after the election? Ive now asked you 3 times to explain this claim that you made.
Of course the lib morons here don't even get the crux of the matter
Removing Petraeus as a credible person / entirely from the Libya proceedings is (D)'s goal
420,000 people were added to the Food Stamps roll in the month of August. The largest monthly increase in history. When was this tidbit of info released? You guessed it, after the election.

Three weeks after receiving a kidney transplant from his brother, a former Ravens' player, Chris Kemoeatu has heard all of the wisecracks.
"Everyone jokes about me having a Ravens' kidney," said Kemoeatu, 31, who played seven years with the Pittsburgh Steelers. "But hey, I can live with that."
He'll have to.
On Thursday, Kemoeatu (key-moy-AH-too) and his brother, Ma'ake (ma-AH-kay), spoke at the University Of Maryland Medical Center of the unusual circumstances surrounding their Aug. 27 surgeries there. While kidney transplants between family members are not uncommon, this was likely the first one between players linked to both sides of one of the...

Baby Olivia Dress
Added Sep 10, 2012
by Julia Morley
Pittsburgh, Penn...
Last week my boyfriend became an uncle for the very first time to a little girl called Olivia. I've never had an excuse to sew baby clothes before so naturally, I was thrilled!
I made her a few dresses, but this one is my favorite – made from a beautiful pink fabric (it might be silk) pulled from my mother's 25-year-old stash (more on that find later on my blog). The embroidery is back stitch and was done by hand using a font I printed on stabilizing paper.
It was my first time using stabilizing paper as the design template for embroidery and it was amazing! No more trying to chalk designs onto fabric or any business like that – I'm going to start adding embroidery to everything I own!
The pattern was McCall's M6015, which was a pretty good pattern. I cut it to the 3 month size but I'm pretty sure it's bigger than that (which would be consistent with the way McCall's and Simplicity sizes run…). Then again, I also have no idea how babies are shaped/sized so I don't really have room to judge. But it went together easily, instructions made sense, and the only modification I made was that I did not line the skirt.

There is a Shuffle! manga... actually two of them (one is the story line, the other are little storylets contributed by other artists) and a series of novels ... all in progress.
And all in Japanese.
You can order them by searching for Shuffle! at www.amazon.co.jp or other fine export shops.
I'd say the chances of a season two is just about zero for now. The energies of Navel are focused on their upcoming series called Soul Link. It may be that we'll see an OVA or something for Shuffle! this summer. Reaction to Shuffle! in Japan from the target audience appears to be mixed.... Everyone was very excited about the set up, premise, and character design... but the climax and final arc of the series was kind of muffed by poor writing.
One of these days, these production teams will learn to put their best talent at the front AND the back of a series.

It would be nice... but so far there's been no sign of interest. Your first clue will probably be if the anime gets licensed, it might follow suit later.
Someone *was* scanlating the main story line series but dropped it after just two chapters due to all the reasons projects usually get dropped.
Also be aware there are two manga series ... one (Days In The Bloom) is the storyline, the other is a collection of short stories as drawn by guest artists... I actually like that one better.
There are also a series of light novels (also untranslated at present).

LONDON (AP) — Mobile communications company Vodafone Group PLC reported a big half-year loss after booking a hefty charge on its Spanish and Italian operations.
For the six months ending Sept. 30, Vodafone made a loss of 1.98 billion pounds ($3.18 billion), compared to a net profit of 6.68 billion pounds a year earlier.
Revenue fell 7 percent to 21.8 billion pounds largely because of adverse currency movements.
The company said Tuesday the 5.9 billion pounds ($9.4 billion) impairment charge for Spain and Italy reflected lower projected cash flows and increased discount rates.
Vodafone shares opened 3 percent lower at 161.55 pence on the London Stock Exchange.
"The wider market has held concerns over Southern Europe for some time now, and these numbers from Vodafone are uncomfortable proof that the financial fears are well-founded," said Richard Hunter, head of equities at Hargreaves Lansdown Stockbrokers.
Vodafone does stand to collect a $3.8 billion dividend by the end of the year from its 45 percent stake in Verizon Wireless, the U.S. joint venture with Verizon Communications Inc. Vodafone said it would use most of that dividend for a share buyback program worth 1.5 billion pounds.
The dividend announced Monday is the second from Verizon Wireless this year. In January, Verizon Wireless ended a policy of using its cash to pay debt, freeing up money to pay a $10 billion dividend to both owners.
