Our Favorite Things, which opened in June, arose from the talents of artisans within La Jolla's very own community, including the shop's 17-year-old owner Emily Nguyen, a senior at The Bishop's School.
After the young entrepreneur met an outpouring of support for her handcrafted scarves, bracelets, headbands and doggie bandanas at La Jolla's weekly farmers market, she figured she would take the leap and try her hand at business ownership.
"The farmers market went well, so I thought maybe I could try to get a storefront and see how that goes," she said. "And at the farmers market, I met a lot of local artisans and vendors too, so I support a lot of their stuff here. I try to carry handmade things to make it unique and support the locals."
Nguyen attributes her needlework talents to her grandmother, Thu Dang, who she says is the true master at her craft.
"Ever since I was little, I would watch her. She's a master at sewing. She can sew anything," Nguyen said. "I remember when I was little, we would sew PJs and stuff together, so I've been doing this for a while."
In fact, all the members of the Nguyen household pitch in their talents for the family venture. Nguyen's younger sister, Megan, helps create handicrafts and jewelry, while dad Tan helped file the legal documentation to launch the business and mom Elizabeth Dang mans the store when Nguyen is in school.
"My family is very supportive," she said. "It's hard. I have to get here as soon as I can. It's convenient because I have a free period at the end of the day, so I just come right out and work here. I often do my homework at the store."
Although time management is certainly a challenge for the full-time high school student and business owner, taking care of the legalities of owning a business was even more difficult, she said.
"That was really hard because I'm not 18 yet and don't have a bachelor's degree," she said. "The pre-planning process took a few months — maybe six months — to get all of the stuff together while I was also going to school. That was the hardest part."
One of the easiest and most rewarding aspects of business ownership, however, is giving back to those less fortunate through partnerships with nonprofit organizations and charities in the community, she said.
"Some friends of mine started a nonprofit organization this year, so I'm selling some of their bracelets, and the profits from those bracelets go back to different social ventures in the countries the products came from," she said.
Additionally, a portion of profits from some of the doggie bandana and pet accessory sales go to the Humane Society, and another partnership with fellow farmer market artisan, Tami Shreves, owner of Vintage 'n' Virtue, assists in recovery efforts at a home for women and children.
"This holiday, I'm going to bring over some scarves and headbands to give as gifts there," she said. "It's something cool I can do since I own a business and I make these things. I should do something to give back."
Our Favorite Things is located at 7514 Girard Ave. Ste. 4. Store hours are Mondays through Fridays, noon to 6 p.m., Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. For more information, visit www.emilysfavoritethings.com or call (858) 224-2476.

BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — The airwaves in Mali's capital fell silent on Tuesday and newspapers didn't print a morning edition in protest over the arrest last week of an editor who published an open letter challenging the salary of the country's coup leader.
Boukary Daou, editor-in-chief of The Republican newspaper, was taken away by agents from Mali's intelligence service on March 6, soon after his newspaper published a letter from an army officer denouncing Capt. Amadou Haya Sanogo's recently-decreed salary of $8,000 per month, an incredibly high salary in the impoverished country. The letter argues that the salary — as much as 26 times what Sanogo earned before last year's coup — is in fact an incentive for future coups.
Sanogo seized power a year ago last March. Faced with international sanctions, he was forced to relinquish control just weeks later, but succeeded in negotiating a golden parachute for himself, including the salary of an ex-head of state. Despite officially stepping down, country watchers say Sanogo remains the power behind the throne, as Daou's arrest seven days ago underscores.
The media strike began on Tuesday and "will continue until Boukary Daou is freed," according to a statement from the country's press association.
President Dioncounda Traore defended the decision to arrest Daou and said that if he is innocent, he will be freed. Speaking to reporters during a stop in the capital of neighboring Senegal, Traore said the letter published in The Republican was subversive, and aimed to demoralize the nation's troops at a time of war.
"Mali is in a state of emergency. We all need to remember this. We are in a state of war, and we cannot allow this kind of thing," he said. "If he is guilty, he will need to answer to the courts. If he is not, there's no reason he'll be kept in prison," he added.
Kassim Traore, the president of the Young Journalists' Organization of Mali said that Daou has refused to disclose the identity of the officer, who penned the letter under the name Capt. Toure.
"The security agents demanded that Daou give the name of his source and Daou refused, which is his duty as a journalist," said Traore. "It's because he would not disclose the name of his source that they are still detaining him, which is why the leaders of the Malian press have organized this No Press Day in order to free our colleague," he said.
In the chaos that followed Sanogo's coup last year, a mixture of rebel groups allied with al-Qaida occupied Mali's northern half, plunging the country and the region into crisis. Since January, French troops, helped by Malian soldiers, have been methodically clearing the north. The letter published in The Republican threatened that if Sanogo's salary is not reduced, soldiers deployed in Mali's north will refuse to fight. The average salary of a rank-and-file soldier is just $100 per month, 80 times less than what Sanogo is now earning.
The incendiary letter began: "Mr. President, we have learned that while we are dying in the great desert (in northern Mali), Capt. Sanogo, in return for leading a coup that plunged the country into the current situation, enjoys a salary of 4 million francs ($8,000). And the others in his group, in his clan, who are refusing to come fight are enjoying the same treatment," wrote Capt. Toure. "If this decision (to accord him this salary) is not reversed within the next two weeks, we will cease ... fighting."
A communique read on state television late Monday said Mali's military had not been able to find an officer of that rank with that name, and urged the press "to be more vigilant in the face of the obscure endeavors (of those) seeking to compromise the unity and discipline of our troops in the field." The communique added that "the investigation is in progress by the relevant authorities in order to identify the real author of this fake letter whose aim was to destabilize our army."
Associated Press writers Babacar Dione and Rukmini Callimachi contributed to this report from Dakar, Senegal.

Why Are Nintendo Characters in This Chinese Smartphone Promo? [Update]
Many game developers are rushing towards mobile phones as a place to release their games. Nintendo, however, has preferred to stick close to its own gaming hardware. Which is why it's so odd that Nintendo characters appeared at this mobile phone booth at the recent China Joy gaming expo.

Remember how fun that muddy dance party was on the last day of Lollapalooza? Remember how much damage it did to Grant Park? Following the 2011 fest, reports started to circulate that the rainy mess had led to hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of damage to the park and that Lolla's producers, Austin, Texas-based C3 Presents, were on the line for it.
According to the Chicago Parks Department's assistant press secretary Marta Juaniza, the repairs were completed within six weeks of the festival and totaled a hefty $800,000.
The torrential downpour that occurred the afternoon of Sunday, August 7, 2011, the last day of the festival, and continued through the evening led to severe sod damage, Juaniza said. Thousands of pairs of feet treading over the soggy park grounds didn't help, either.
The rain evoked park-wide muddy dance parties from festival attendees. Despite the fun scene it created, the damage wasn't hard to see by the time Lollapalooza wrapped up that night.
After waiting out the first rainstorm in a porta potty, Lollapalooza 2011 attendee Tim Fletcher remembers his experience.
"I was standing no more than 15 feet from 40 people at a time sliding, in unison with locked arms, down said hill. Some others got the idea to strip down to underwear, stack up garbage cans and become human bowling balls," he said in an email to RedEye. "While funny for a bit, it eventually turned aggravating, and they kept at it during the band's set. Not to mention the hill was ripped to shreds and garbage was all over the place."
Lollapalooza will take place in Grant Park again this year, Aug. 3-5. For the full lineup, click here.

Studio: Kelly Payne Collection
Starring: Kelly Payne, The Infamous Annie
Approximate Running Time: 49.29 minutes
Kelly Payne is a very strict disciplinarian and is well used to dealing with brats, but she has her work cut out when she meets the Baltimore Brat. When you watch this classic from the Kelly Payne Collection, you'll understand why it was the 2007 AVN Award Winner for Best Specialty Release for Spanking.
Annie finds herself standing in front of Kelly – attempting to wheedle her way out of the punishment she knows she's about to receive.
Her boyfriend, who loves her dearly, contacted Kelly asking for her help. He's at the end of his rope with Annie. She is constantly rude and thoroughly badly behaved so he hopes that Kelly really can sort out his bratty girlfriend.
Annie immediately tries to lie her way out of trouble. First, Annie feigns surprise at meeting Kelly. Then she denies being a brat to her ever-loving boyfriend.
Kelly is too smart and won't stand for any nonsense. Her job is to turn a spoiled brat called into a sweet and loving lady. She is not going to let Annie get away without a heavy spanking.
Kelly starts off with an OTK hand spanking on Annie's pert little ass. Then Ms. Payne realizes that she's going to have to bring out the implements-paddles, straps, and the dreaded cane-because her Baltimore brat is still back-talking to her and insisting she is innocent of all accusations.
Kelly immobilizes the pretty blond by binding her wrists together and making her lie face down on the bed. The strapping, tawsing, and caning continues.
Then Kelly has a change of tactics and tells Annie to kneel up on the bed with her very sore, red ass sticking up in the air. She gives Annie instructions to stay like that or else.
When Kelly returns to her brat, she's wearing a pair of tight-fitting surgical gloves. What Kelly Payne does next takes Annie by surprise. She inserts her finger into Annie's asshole and finger fucks her there.
She then tapes Annie's bottom cheeks apart and gives the poor girl a crack caning.
The final method of torture is really cruel: Kelly gives Annie an enema and warns her not to let it out. But unfortunately, some of the water escapes and Annie tries to mop it up without Kelly seeing her. However, Kelly doesn't miss a trick and gives her Annie yet another spanking.
When she does allow Annie to go to the bathroom, she tells her to be quick.
Now, it's obvious that Annie still hasn't learned any obedience because takes her time, even after Kelly's warning. When she returns from the bathroom, she admits to Kelly that she was in there masturbating.
The Baltimore brat just earned herself another uncompromisingly heavy spanking, strapping, and caning from strict Kelly Payne.
Only once Kelly is sure that Annie is going to be a sweet, little angel does she ask for a hug and ends Annie's ordeal.

Outlines of English and American Literature
Victorian Essayists and Historians
Long, William J.
There is rich reading in Victorian essays, which reflect not only the practical affairs of the age but also the ideals that inspire every great movement whether in history or literature. For example, the intense religious interests of the period, the growth of the Nonconformists or Independents, the Oxford movement, which aimed to define the historic position of the English Church, the chill of doubt and the glow of renewed faith in face of the apparent conflict between the old religion and the new science,--all these were brilliantly reflected by excellent writers, among whom Martineau, Newman and Maurice stand out prominently. The deep thought, the serene spirit and the fine style of these men are unsurpassed in Victorian prose.
Somewhat apart from their age stood a remarkable group of historians--Hallam, Freeman, Green, Gardiner, Symonds and others no less praiseworthy--who changed the whole conception of history from a record of political or military events to a profound study of human society in all its activities. In another typical group were the critics, Pater, Bagehot, Hutton, Leslie Stephen, who have given deeper meaning and enlarged pleasure to the study of literature. In a fourth group were the scientists--Darwin, Wallace, Lyell, Mivart, Tyndall, Mill, Spencer, Huxley, and their followers--some of whom aimed not simply to increase our knowledge but to use the essay, as others used the novel, to portray some new scene in the old comedy of human life. Darwin was a great and, therefore, a modest man; but some of his disciples were sadly lacking in humor. Spencer and Mill especially wrote with colossal self-confidence, as if the world no longer wore its veil of mystery. They remind us, curiously, that while poetry endures forever, nothing on earth is more subject to change and error than so-called scientific truth.
Typical Writers
It is impossible in a small volume to do justice to so many writers, reflecting nature or humanity from various angles, and sometimes insisting that a particular angle was the only one from which a true view could be obtained. Some rigorous selection is necessary; and we name here for special study Macaulay, Carlyle, Ruskin, who are commonly regarded as the typical Victorian essayists. This selection does not mean, however, that some other group might not be quite as representative of their age and nation. Our chosen authors stand not for Victorian thought but only for certain interesting phases thereof. Macaulay, the busy man of affairs, voiced the pride of his generation in British traditions. Carlyle lived aloof, grumbling at democracy, denouncing its shams, calling it to repentance. Ruskin, a child of fortune, was absorbed in art till the burden of the world oppressed him; whereupon he gave his money to the cause of social reform and went himself among the poor to share with them whatever wealth of spirit he possessed. These three men, utterly unlike in character, were as one in their endeavor to make modern literature a power wherewith to uplift humanity. They illustrate, better even than poets or novelists, the characteristic moral earnestness of the Victorian era.

Also, while Shinku could have been more tactful when breaking the "news" that Gin "couldnt" become a RM to her, at least Shinku did not expressly teach Gin to walk just so Gin could meet father, i.e. she didnt purposely say or intent: "I'm teaching you to walk so you can meet father" (or did she? Remember, I know no Japanese. ). All along, it was Gin's desire to meet father that led Gin along. Anyhow, I guess thats the reason for Shinku's sad expression when Gin hugged her.. Shinku thought that Gin could not meet father.

Speedsubs... Hm. Anyone who understand Japanese and has basic encoding/timing software could do this single-handedly in a couple days, but the translations go unchecked, wording may be strange, misspellings, etc... In any case, I'll wait for a quality release.

Ooh.. yes.. the fansub credits go to an anonymous of 4chan. Heh. Hmm, its an acceptable work if you're in want of a quick fix for Ouverture. Tho, its plagued with sub-standard encoding and timing, lack of proper capitalisations and punctuations at places, choice of words that could be improved and more typos than should be present. But, yeah, language is understandable. (basically, its in need of a good QC pass). But beggars (me) can't be choosers!
Thanks goes to Anonymous!
WTH. At their first meeting, Shinku knew Gin to be the "one left on the shelf." Well, this would explain the biasness with which she approached the issue of Gin being a RM. But it leaves more questions; namely: how did Shinku know? Could Father have told her?

Well, I saw it and what I was fearing when I saw the famous "Gin and Shinku having tea together" picture, happened, we were given an other "Good friends who became deadful enemies" (even if some sequences were cute) .Com'onPeach Pit !!! Is that all you could find ?! That eternal refrain that we can see at least twice a year in animes ? (and I'm only talking about anime).
So almost the whole thing sound wrong to me... except the first scene, beautiful but cruel and incredibly sad, desu and the last minutes with Gin and Shinku unleashing their power... and anger.
Well spoilers :

INDIANAPOLIS -- Geno Smith made it known that he does not consider himself a read-option quarterback. However, he is open to anything.
"I think I have the skill set that fits any offense," Smith said at the NFL Scouting Combine on Friday. "I can play within the pocket, but I'm athletic enough to run that style of offense.
"I have the ability to. I don't think that's my game. I don't think my game is predicated around that. If a coach wants me to, I'll definitely be all for it."
The West Virginia signal-caller is in an odd spot as the 2013 NFL Draft approaches. Most consider Smith the top quarterback prospect, but this class doesn't match the level of quarterback star power of the previous five drafts. The prospects don't have the cachet of Andrew Luck, Robert Griffin III, Cam Newton or Matt Ryan. The Kansas City Chiefs have the No. 1 pick, but there are questions regarding whether any quarterback is worth a first-round pick. But Smith's athletic ability combined with his pocket skills could make some team very, very happy. Especially with the read-option becoming a more prominent weapon around the NFL.
"I'm totally confident in my abilities," Smith said. "I'm not cocky or trying to say I'm this all-world player right now, because I have many areas where I need to grow. But I do feel like I have a great, tremendous skill set and that I have an opportunity to showcase that.
"You can watch the tape and see all the throws I make. Obviously, I can make every throw on the field. That still needs to be improved. Inconsistency is something that I struggled with, I believe. ... Overall, I believe my skill set is one that is tailored for any offense."
Smith came across as confident yet humble; smart in understanding there is much to learn and develop. He had a strong media session Friday, but he doesn't have to win over reporters this weekend.

"You will know everything when the time is right."
That's what Helen Magnus (Amanda Tapping) told her No. 2 man, Will Zimmerman (Robin Dunne), throughout Season 4 of "Sanctuary," (spoilers ahead!) refusing to tell him the plan she had set in motion while trapped in the past. As we saw in the two-part season finale, "Sanctuary for None," her secrets nearly destroyed the sanctuary and their relationship.
Wait, it did destroy the sanctuary, but she meant to do that. And that has opened up uncountable storytelling opportunities for a fifth season. That is, if Syfy picks it up for another season. There's still no word on that, but Tapping wants another season.
"A, I'm not ready to let it go, but also I think the concept right now could be so interesting," she told me recently. "I just think there are so many opportunities for us to revamp without losing our unique flavor, but I think it could be a really fresh, invigorating start. It already is with the new sanctuary. Just to explore that, it's beautiful."
Here's the last segment of my interview with Tapping from before Part 1 of the season finale aired, which includes all the spoilery stuff I didn't want to publish before. So if you haven't seen the finale, SPOILER ALERT!
Click these links for parts 1 and 2 about the finale:
Amanda Tapping teases "Sanctuary" season finale
"Sanctuary" wraps Season 4 with "final reckoning"
Leading up to the season finale, Will and Helen didn't seem to get along so well. They have fought a lot. I've said more than a couple of times, "I hate it when Mommy and Daddy fight." What's up with them?
In the playing of it I don't feel like [they fought that much.] I feel like there has been a lot of tension between the two of them, but I don't feel like we're always fighting.
I think what has happened is Helen—well you've now seen the final two episodes, so you understand that Helen has had this mission and is now in a position where she can actually finalize it. She is so driven by this singular mission that I think she can't see the forest for the trees and therefore tends to do things in such a bold and almost arrogant fashion. Will bristles at that because the relationship has changed because he knows she is up to something, but she is not honest enough or doesn't feel like she can be honest enough to tell him what it is.
So it creates this massive underlying tension between the two of them. She knows she is not being honest with him. He knows she is not being honest. But she doesn't see it as a problem because all will be right in the end. Whereas for our lovely mere mortal Will it's like, "That's not how human beings treat each other." But I think if it wasn't for their incredible respect for each other and the fact that they love each other and that they are so connected and so dependent on each other it wouldn't be as tense because nobody would give a shit. Do you know what I mean? It would be like, "Oh Helen is acting this way." Instead it's like, "God damn it!"
We have so many layers to this relationship and you throw a tiny little wedge in it and the whole thing starts to implode because it is so intense.
And he has known all along that she has had something going on, but he didn't figure it out to Part 2 of the finale.
Of course he does and she keeps saying, "Just give me time. One more time I need to not tell you the whole truth. Oh, wait; remember I said last time that that was the last time? This will be the last time. Oh, wait, wait, remember the last time and the last time that I said this was going to be last? Now it's going to be the last."
It's a lot for somebody to have to take where you finally say, "I call bullshit. You still aren't being honest with me lady. Come on."
Again, I think there is such a love for each other and such a mutual respect that I don't always see the tension in the playing of it. I know it's there, but I didn't look back at the season as a whole and go, "Wow, Will and Helen really didn't get along." I find those moments where they really did or I know the motivation behind why she did the things she did. But then I guess for an audience member for sure you'd be like, "Mom and Dad are still fighting." I know.
"Whose house are we going to live in?" Which will be an even more apt question by the end of Season 4.
That's so true. She hatched this whole plan when she was stuck in the past, right?
Yeah, which I loved. I loved that scene with Will and Abby where he starts to figure it out. You get forensic psychologist Will going, "Wait a second, check out this. Wow, Coober Pedy. OK, and then this and then this and Buckminster Fuller. Wait a second." I love that scene where he started to put the pieces together.
Gil Bellows did a great job as Caleb, but wow, he kicks the crap out of Helen at first.
Yeah, it has been a very physical season I have to say, but what I loved about Gil was that you actually thought that Helen that believed him for the longest time. You actually believed that Helen was like, "Wow, is she falling for this?" She needs to take everyone along for that ride and then in the end go "I knew it was all crap." I loved that she is that smart.
A lot of times in both parts you had me thinking Bigfoot wasn't cured, and then he was a plant, but then maybe not. Same with questioning whether Will was indeed working with Helen or not.
Right, I know, which I love. I loved that we didn't spoon feed it. I loved that for the audience it felt in real time and you were asking questions in real time and it wasn't like you were going, "I know what is going to happen now." It's one of the things I'm very proud of with the show is we try not to spoon feed our incredibly intelligent audience information that they will figure out.
So spoiler alert: That is a brand spanking new Sanctuary we see at the end of the season?
Yes, it is.
It's gorgeous, and very utopian.
Isn't it beautiful?
It's interesting because I only saw a couple of the final renderings of it. I loved it, but I wasn't in on the big decisions on how it was going to be built. I think that really had to happen between [visual effects guru] Lee [Wilson] and [director] Damian [Kindler].
But what I love about it is that she took sort of the best ideas of Hollow Earth and Coober Pedy and these underground sort of cathedrals and then built this incredible, like you said, utopia with beautiful natural light and lots of water. She has sort of created the sanctuary she has always wanted. Running a sanctuary out of a gothic cathedral in the middle of the fifth ward is not ideal [what with] power outages and surge protection alone, she has a lot of things to deal with, right? So here she is actually from the ground up able to create a safe and aesthetically beautiful, but environmentally conscious [sanctuary]. All of the things that she has wanted she is able to do it from scratch.
Is that in Hollow Earth or elsewhere?
That's her own sanctuary.
Was Kate secretly building that and not working on Hollow Earth?
No. Nobody knew about this sanctuary except for Helen and the people that she had involved building it, but no one of her team. She wouldn't get her frontline team involved with that.
So she had to get other people?
Mm-hmm. [Laughs.] She did it all by herself with a hammer and chisel.
Right? I was going to say that she is multitasking almost as much as you do, Amanda.
So, sad question: Is Biggie really gone?
I don't think so.
It is sci-fi, where death is not permanent.
But I don't think so. I mean the beauty of it is that he's collapsed outside the front gates.
I thought they killed him and dumped him.
He collapsed in the front door; they dumped him outside the front gates and I was like, "Whew, he could survive the explosion." And then with Henry and Tesla have taken off. Could he have gone and gotten Biggie? Yes, he could have, so I'm not saying yes or no, but I, personally, Amanda Tapping, do not think that Biggie is dead.
Speaking of Tesla, Magnus gets another kiss.
And she gets another kiss. We improvised that one. Actually I think in the cut it didn't quite work out the way that I had hoped. I needed the audience to believe that she might not make it, that this could be the end of the series.
It needed to be that dramatic. Jonathan and I talked about it, like we've keyed up all these little moments like Vienna in the spring and these little teases that we've given the audience. It's a good-bye. It's "I love you, get the F out of here because this whole thing is going to blow and one of us has to survive."
Well I felt that that was sort of what she was doing.
Yeah, absolutely, good.
I loved Jonathan's face. His look said, "Hmm, maybe I'll stay."
[Laughs.] Yeah.
So if you get a Season 5 abnormals will still be on the surface and in harm's way, right? The sanctuary mission won't really change in that sense.
Yeah, this is an ongoing issue. I think that Helen will learn quickly how to put a lid on it I would hope, but yeah, absolutely. There is always going to be the marginalized people in society who need protecting and our case it's the abnormals.
And so she'll be super covert now.
You know we've talked a lot about the possibility. I really do hope that we get a Season 5 because A, I'm not ready to let it go, but also just because I think the concept right now could be so interesting. I think it would be really easy to bring back a lot of the characters from last season, but utilize them in a completely different way. I think Addison would be a great addition, more of Jonathan. Kate is back. I just think there are so many opportunities for us to revamp without losing our unique flavor, but I think it could be a really fresh, invigorating start. It already is with the new sanctuary. Just to explore that, it's beautiful.
Have you started thinking about where you could go from here already?
Yeah, we've been throwing things around, but again it's one of those where we've all sort of gone, "OK I guess we have to wait and see what happens," whether we get picked up or not. We've all sort of taken a bit of a break too, which is a good thing.

Why is it that the dental health of American children has significantly improved over their parent's oral health? Because children today have the benefit of fluoride and sealants that were either not available or available to a much lesser extent than when their parents were young. Here are some guidelines for dental health parents may consider as their child grows and develops.
Before Birth - Finish All Dental Work
To continue improvement in the oral health of children, parents must be diligent even before their birth. Unbeknownst to most parents and providers, dental cavities are transferred from parents (primarily mothers) to their young offspring. Newborns are not bo (More)

The TPS312x family of ultralow voltage processor supervisory circuits provides circuit initialization and timing supervision, primarily for DSP and processor-based systems.
During power-on, RESET is asserted when the supply voltage (VDD) becomes higher than 0.75 V. Thereafter, the supply voltage supervisor monitors VDD and keeps RESET output active as long as VDD remains below the threshold voltage (VIT). An internal timer delays the return of the output to the inactive state (high) to ensure proper system reset. The delay time, td = 180 ms, starts after VDD has risen above the threshold voltage (VIT).
When the supply voltage drops below the threshold voltage (VIT), the output becomes active (low) again. No external components are required. All the devices of this family have a fixed-sense threshold voltage (VIT) set by a high precision internal voltage divider.
The TPS3123/5/6/8 devices incorporate a manual reset input, MR. A low level at MR causes RESET to become active. The TPS3124 devices do not have the input MR, but include a high-level output RESET same as the TPS3125 and TPS3126 devices. In addition, the TPS3123/4/8 have a watchdog timer that needs to be triggered periodically by a positive or negative transition at WDI. When the supervising system fails to retrigger the watchdog circuit within the time-out interval ttout= 0.8 s, RESET output becomes active for the time period (td). This event also reinitializes the watchdog timer.
The circuits are available in a 5-pin SOT23-5 package. The TPS312x devices are characterized for operation over a temperature range of –40°C to +85°C.

It's been three months since my last post and I'd like to say I feel bad about that, but I don't. Over the past year, blogging and taking pictures (other than vendors) has taken a back seat as I have focused on growing my store and managing another. My creating has been a wonderful distraction this past year as I have been dealing with some heavy RL stuff. Mesh continues to challenge me and I have really enjoyed being on the creator side of things. You can blame Gos for pushing me so hard to learn 😉
Rather than have a random post being my final post, I wanted to end things right. Blogging opened up a whole new world of creativity and has introduced me to some absolutely amazing people who I am honored to call friends.
Thank you so much to all of my visitors over the past years. Especially if you're reading now after several months of quiet! I hope that you have enjoyed the randomness as much as I have.
I also would like to thank all of the creators who have shared their talents with SL. Without their wonderful creations, I would never have had a reason to start blogging. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and in many cases, your friendship.
Simply Stylish will stay as-is, but will no longer be updated. If you want to see what I'm up to in the future, check out my flickr or store blog.
To quote the song whose title I have used for this final post: "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end".

Since the ISS packet station has recently been off the air, We are fortunate that the PCSAT-1 digipeater has been Recovered for the next few weeks and so ARISS packet Operators are invited to use PCSAT-1 while it ramins operational. We'd like to demo PCSAT-1 to students on this Thursday 28 Sept at 0923 EDT and 1112 EDT over the eastern USA. This is normal APRS (or UI) digipeating via the digipeater callsign of PCSAT-1 (or VIA ARISS) on the Space APRS channel of 145.825. Our callsign is W3ADO-15. Here is what we would like to see: 1) Attended stations set APRS posit rate to 2 mins (til successful) 2) Unattended stations set APRS posit rate to 5 minutes 3) Include in your POSIT text these items: a) ur name, TX power and ANT Gain b) some reference to this event (like GO Navy! Etc) c) Example might be: "Bob,2 min,5W,3dBi omni ant,Beat Army" With this info, my students will plot your APRS posit and can calculate the link equation for your station and we can see the statistics of how well weak as well as strong stations get in. Please adhere to your stated rate for the POSIT text. Our station, W3ADO-15 will QSL your packets. If you are attended and you get more than 5 successes, cut your period (and change your posit text) to 5 minutes. The objective is to see how many people we can capture, not how many times you can get in! If you are NOT running APRS, here is how to use ANY TNC to participate: 1) Set your UNPROTO to APRS VIA PCSAT-1 2) Set your Btext with GRID square "[FM19sx]Joe,5min,5W,8dBi ant,Hi mids!" 3) Set your BEACON to every 5 minutes. Notice that the grid square must be 6 digits or some APRS will not decode them. I hope we get plenty of participation. Of course, TOO MUCH participation coiuld kill it too. But we will see how it goes.

Last night was "meet the teacher" night at Alex's kindergarten. It was very cute and everything we saw made us feel really good about his teacher, his school and his skills. Even this self portrait was a pleasant surprise. I honestly didn't know Alex could color like this. And by "like this" I mean at all.
I have friends whose kids can draw beautiful pictures of immediately-recognizable things, kids who stay within the lines and use color in an asthetically-pleasing way, kids who will sit quietly for hours creating displayable artwork. I was one of those kids (art was always a huge passion of mine). My kids are not like that. We try to color with them but they are just not interested at this point. I was worried about Alex heading to kindergarten with only very basic stick-figure skills but last night I was pleasantly surprised. I think this self portrait is actually pretty good for him. I know some of your kids could probably create this when they were two but for Al, this is an accomplishment. Of course there were other portraits that rocked (most of them by girls, incidentally) but there were also others that Nora could have drawn. He was totally average and—for coloring, at least—I'm OK with that.
Another couple we talked to were betting that their kid got help with his drawing because they couldn't believe how decent it was. We felt the same way. (The kids' names were traced and Alex did an exceptional job at that, if I may say so). Maybe they are actually learning something! Maybe he just doesn't like to color with me. Maybe he's too afraid to get up from his desk so the only option is to draw like his life depended on it. The other day he brought home a picture he'd made of a snail that actually looked like a snail and I was shocked (most of his artwork requires a dissertation). I grilled him about it (nicely) asking if someone had helped him or if he'd traced it—the answer was no. I was beaming with pride.
Can your kid color and draw? Do you ever compare his work to other kids his age? A friend and I were obsessing about this topic yesterday and she was saying she finds herself shamelessly mentioning to the preschool teacher that her daughter is younger than the rest of the class when she sees some of the impressive life-like drawings the other three year old's churn out. I totally get it and I do this too. Why do we care so much? There's just something about coloring and drawing that seems so essential to childhood that I'm almost more obsessed about this than all the other stuff . Also, we only ever see artwork displayed on the walls so that's the only way we can compare at this point. For now I'm just glad Alex doesn't completely suck at art. How's that for low standards?! Happy Friday, everyone! Hope the weekend treats you well.

Project Description
The goal of this project is to identify through ab initio molecular dynamics atomic level modeling and computer simulation and then experimentally validate new oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steel alloy compositions that have improved high temperature mechanical and corrosion resistance properties for advanced fossil energy applications. To accomplish this goal the project team will (1) Build interface models of ODS alloy compositions. (2) Perform interface energy and molecular dynamics/Monte Carlo high performance computing (HPC) simulations on the ODS models to identify promising compositions for high temperature and high pressure applications. (3). Perform experiments on the high temperature oxidation and high temperature/high pressure dislocation creep properties of the most promising ODS systems from the simulations.
Project Benefits
This project will focus on development of advanced ferritic-oxide dispersion strengthened alloy materials for use in advanced power systems. Improvement to high-temperature advanced-materials will promote the development of advanced power plant designs that can operate at higher temperatures and pressures, leading to improvements in efficiency and operational flexibility.

Innovative bonding of shafts
Wakol offers a new sprayable shoe adhesive with high initial strength and excellent processing properties. WAKOL D 3465 Special Adhesive is suitable for the manufacture of shoe shafts and insoles by hiding all common leather, cushioning and lining materials.
The use of this alkali- and ammonia-free raw material with very low allergenic potential reduces the skin-irritating effect of the adhesive significantly or substantially. Contamination of the adhesive during processing is impossible with the application in the closed container. Only a 10 kg container is connected directly to the spray gun which avoids the former refilling into a pressurised container. Mould formation in pressurised containers is therefore impossible.
The absence of odours (no ammonia) during processing is particularly beneficial. A high initial strength is already achieved with little pressure. In order to control the spray application of the undyed adhesive also on bright lining materials, a UV indicator is added which enables visualisation under black light. Typical spray devices can be used without any problems. Only the selected spray pressure must be readjusted or reduced to 1-2 bar. It is possible to clean the application devices with water. Work benches can also be easily cleaned with little effort. Very high heat resistance allows other work processes such as heatsetter, blow-drying and steaming without any problems. Hydrolysis tests (70°, 7d , 100% RF) permit use in the area of heavy and sports footwear.

Wakol presents adhesive systems for manufacturing upholstery and mattresses
On the upcoming interzum 2017 in Cologne, Wakol presents adhesive systems for manufacturing upholstery and mattresses.
Visit Wakol at interzum from 16. - 19. Mai in Hall 10.1, Aisle A, Stand 058 and convince yourself of the TOP Products INTERCOLL D 3447 and INTERCOLL D 3386 .
INTERCOLL D 3447 Roller Adhesive – is a diverse mattress adhesive for the manufacture of all types of mattresses. The water-based 1-C CR-Latex Roller adhesive is solvent-free and characterized by its superb tension stability when wet. The easy assembly and the process reliability are featured by the quick force build-up and the excellent instant tack.
INTERCOLL D 3386 – has been developed for roller and spray application. The very fast drying of the adhesive makes a directly packaging of the mattress possible. It can be used as one-side or contact adhesive for all common mattresses and upholstery materials.
During interzum 2017 Wakol presents live two spray applications:
The 2-C CR-Latex Dispersion Adhesive INTERCOLL D 3453 is used in combination with INTERCOLL D 3437 Aktivator by spray-mix-application. It shows high initial strength for bonding foam materials in a short time.
INTERCOLL D 3460 is a 1-C CR-Latex Dispersion Adhesive can be used at a low spraying pressure, thus reducing the overspray and optimising consumption. The product can be applied using the "free-flow" method. In comparison to the mixed two-component adhesive, INTERCOLL D 3460 contains more solid material and therefore has a lower water content. This adds a drying benefit.

WAKOL Sealing Compounds – expanded product range
Wakol presents at Metpack two new additions to its extensive Sealing Compound range.
- WAKOL D 3756 Sealing Compound for Beverage cans
- WAKOL PU 4320 / 4315 Sealing Compound for Food pails and drums.
WAKOL D 3756 Sealing Compound for Beverage cans
WAKOL D 3756 Sealing Compound is a water-based sealing compound based on SBR for beverage application and is suitable for the filling of mineral water, carbonated soft drink, beer as well as dairy products. It shows a very good performance using high throughput application machinery (up to 1500 epm / rotational multi-head liner) applying to small diameters.
It is formulated to achieve virtually no taste or odour influences on filling goods. Therefore WAKOL D 3756 Sealing Compound is suitable for taste-sensitive filling goods like e.g. mineral water.
It complies with latest regulatory requirements, according to European and FDA food contact regulations. TNO and Nehring certificates are available
It shows excellent performance on high-speed rotational multi liners due to low drying tendency on nozzles. Reject rates are exceptionally low. An excellent shear stability provides optimum performance through central supply systems.
WAKOL PU 4320 / 4315 Sealing Compound for Food pails and drums
WAKOL PU 4320 / 4315 Sealing Compound is a two-component, self-blowing polyurethane foam. It was especially developed to form gaskets for pails and drum covers with ring ladge application. For the product, full compliance for food contact according to European Food Contact law has been achieved.
As the foam shows a very good resistance against water, fats, oils and aliphatic solvents it can also be used for the sealing of packaging of aqueous-based products for technical applications, glycols, oils, aliphatic solvents and solid filling materials.
The reaction leads to an elastic and fine-porous gasket with a smooth surface. 2-C-Polyurethane technology offers several advantages: no oven needed, high form stability of the gasket, plasticizer free, low migration, PVC free.
The Wakol exhibition team is looking forward to inform you about the full product range and will be available for further details. Visit Wakol in Hall 3.0 Stand 3A34.

Dave D'Onofrio's Sox Beat: Red Sox need to trade for help in the bullpenDAVE D'ONOFRIO
July 20. 2013 9:25PM
BOSTON -- Friday began like many days have for the Red Sox this season, with manager John Farrell discussing an injury to one of his players - and divulging bad news. In this case it concerned Andrew Bailey and his shoulder, which requires surgery that'll keep him out a calendar year.
But, hours later, Friday ended like so many days have for the Red Sox this season, too. With a Boston win.
It was their 59th of this season, this one maintaining their 2.5-game lead over the sizzling Rays, and ensuring that the Sox will still be in first place when Tampa Bay arrives at Fenway Park on Monday to start a four-game series. It was a good start to the second half, and to a weekend set with the rival Yankees.
It was a reminder that something special is afoot on Yawkey Way. And that the players responsible for getting the team to this point - where they'd won more games than any team in baseball before the All-Star break - deserve every chance their front office can give them to finish the job and chase a championship in 2013.
There's a popular school of thought that because of the original expectations for this season, because of the injuries the club has been (and still is) dealing with, and because of where the team is in its on-the-fly retooling plan, Ben Cherington shouldn't mortgage the future by aggressively dealing away major long-term assets in order to make a hard run at a title this October. And that's right. He shouldn't.
But he shouldn't be passive about in his efforts to improve this team, either - because to do so would be to ignore all the good that's taken place to this point, as well as the opportunity that is in front of his Red Sox. It's an honest-to-goodness opportunity to win a World Series, which don't come around too often, and which therefore must be pursued when presented.
Yes, they're flawed. Yes, they're beaten up. Yes, they're alarmingly thin in the bullpen. But they've won the most games in the big leagues. They've scored more runs than any team in baseball. And they've got a starting rotation with the second-best earned run average in the American League, even without having had their ace for most of the past two months.
They may not on the level of the star-studded teams so fondly remembered in these parts, but relative to the major leagues in 2013 they've now got 99 games of evidence that suggests they're among the best. And look around at some of the other teams that are in contention; there's not an elite team in the bunch, and none are clearly better than Boston.
The Sox' players know this, too. They know where they are, and they know what they need - and so failing to at least make an honest effort to acquire it would be an insult to the work they've done both on the field and behind the scenes.
A significant part of resetting the atmosphere of the clubhouse and reestablishing a productive culture has been proving that the players, the coaches and upper management are all pulling in the same direction, with the common goal of winning. And so to do nothing in this situation would send a bad message in that respect.
After all, if you're not going to go for it when you reach July 20 with the AL's best record, during a season in which you've invested about $160 million in payroll, just when are you going to go for it?
"We have an obligation as a front office to do what we can to help the guys in the clubhouse who are working hard every day trying to win games," recently acknowledged Cherington, whose job it'll be to balance the present and the future, and who has in that respect preached discipline since gaining some financial freedom through last August's megadeal with the Dodgers.
That approach has served the GM from Meriden well - and he doesn't need to depart from it now in order to help his team. According to various prospect forecasters, the Sox are stocked with as many as eight players who project to make a major-league impact in their careers. There's then another level with several players who have a chance to reach that level.
So if others in baseball agree, the Sox should be able to declare guys like Xander Bogaerts, Jackie Bradley Jr., Anthony Ranaudo and Henry Owens untouchable and still have the resources to make a deal. Especially considering that their greatest need is relievers, and the price on those shouldn't be quite as high as it would be for an everyday player or an above-average starting pitcher.
Even when they're unsexy on the surface, trades this time of year can be difference makers. It was for the Giants last year with Marco Scutaro. It was for the Cardinals the year before when they exchanged their promising center fielder for pitching depth. Heck, in 2010, even getting Ramon Ramirez from Boston proved a crucial move for San Francisco.
This year, the Red Sox front office should do everything it can to be on the other side of a deal like that, and add to a group that's proven its resilience, its character, its ability to compete with anyone. The players have done their part.
Now it's time for the front office to do the same - not at the cost of dooming the future, but with enough consequence to properly acknowledge there's an opportunity to end this season as good as it began.

How badly is the bullpen in need of fortifying? When Craig Breslow put the tying run aboard in the eighth inning Friday night, Brandon Workman was warming. He was Tuesday's scheduled starter, and had made just two relief appearances as a pro - but aside from closer Koji Uehara, the other options were Matt Thornton (who's better saved for lefties), Pedro Beato and Jose De La Torre (both of whom have appeared only in blowouts), or Drake Britton (who was a minor-league starter and hadn't yet pitched in the majors).
Workman was probably indeed the best option. And that's a blatant sign Boston need relievers. Plural.

Stat of the week: Entering tonight's start against the Yankees, many of Jon Lester's numbers over his last 11 starts are similar to those of the Royals' James Shields in terms of everything from innings to hits to walks to strikeouts. Yet Lester's ERA is 6.18 over that time, and his team is 5-6 in his appearances. Shields has a 3.89 and Kansas City is 8-3.The difference has been that against Lester, opponents are hitting .295 with two outs, and .306 with two outs and runners in scoring position. Against Shields, they're hitting .196 and .188 in the respective situations.

Manchester officer Daniel Doherty back to full strength, determined to serveBy DALE VINCENT
New Hampshire Union Leader
February 07. 2013 12:16AM
Manchester Police officer Daniel Doherty didn't seriously consider retirement after being shot seven times last March by Myles Webster.
"I wanted to finish the career I started," said Doherty.
Easier said than done.
But despite wounds that required a titanium rod in his left leg and multiple surgeries to repair the serious damage bullets did to his leg and lower body, Doherty, 26, returned to work this week.
When he appeared for roll call, it surprised many of his fellow officers who expected a longer recuperation.
Doherty said he had a conversation with his doctor last week. "I want to go back to work," he said. "Medically I'm cleared. Physically and mentally able to be out on the street," he said. And he can hardly wait to be out on the street.
"I missed it a lot," he said. He's now working with the training unit, getting all of his qualifications updated. "I know they are watching closely," he said, but he made sure he could easily beat the physical standards for his age group before returning.
When will he be back on the street, at first with a partner? "Within the next two weeks," he said. "I'm anxious to get out (on patrol)."
But last March 21, it was unclear whether Doherty would even survive the wounds he sustained when, during a foot pursuit, Webster stopped, spun around and fired his .357 Glock semiautomatic at Doherty.
As he lay on the pavement at Rimmon and Wayne streets that evening, with blood pouring from his wounds and Webster standing over him, Doherty said a fog settled over his mind and he realized he could die. But he wasn't willing to accept that, so he raised his weapon and returned fire, driving Webster away.
Tests on Doherty's gun indicated that one of Webster's bullets hit the barrel of Doherty's gun, held in his outstretched hand, and was deflected. That bullet was aimed for Doherty's head.
Doherty said training prepares officers for the possibility of being shot. Now, he said: "I know first hand that it's real."
He said we tend to think of police officers being shot as happening far away, in big cities. "I think a lot of people think it doesn't happen here," he said. But within weeks of his wounding, he said, four officers were wounded and Chief Michael Maloney was killed in Greenland, and little more than a month after that, a Springfield, Mass., officer was killed responding to a domestic incident.
Doherty said he truly believes "everything happens for a reason."
He normally wouldn't have been working the shift that put him on the West Side in pursuit of Webster, but he had swapped shifts in anticipation of a vacation to the Virgin Islands.
The surgeons who operated on Doherty after the shooting credited his youth, his physical condition and the fellow officer who put a tourniquet on his left leg, as well as the EMTs who sped him to nearby Catholic Medical Center for his survival.
"I'm glad they kept me at CMC, instead of flying me to Boston," said Doherty, who had high praise for the medical personnel there, as well as the therapists who literally got him back on his feet.
He was pleased that by the time of a motion hearing for the Webster case in November, nine months after he was shot, he was able to walk smoothly to the witness box in Hillsborough County Superior Court North in full uniform and testify that he was "one hundred percent" sure that Webster was the shooter.
He was still having problems with his left leg, but was determined not to show it. He's been told that Webster's face showed surprise at his confident walk, perhaps expecting someone obviously disabled.
Doherty said Webster's conviction and sentence - 60 years to life - was more of a relief to his parents than to him. Doherty said he doesn't think about Webster. "He shot the uniform," he said, not Dan Doherty.
Doherty said: "Our goal, our job is to make the quality of life better for people." That's why officers put themselves in danger.
"But there's a person inside the uniform," he said, and not everyone realizes that.
He said he's grateful for the people here who did think of him as a person after he was shot, people who sent good wishes, who prayed, who gave blood in his name.
Last March when the Manchester Policemen's Wives Association quickly put together and held a blood drive for Doherty, the American Red Cross was able to collect 326 pints from 400 would-be donors.
This year, Doherty will be on hand for the second blood drive put on by the Manchester Policemen's Wives Association this Saturday at McDonough Elementary School, 550 Lowell St., from 7:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
He's hoping the predicted nor'easter doesn't materialize and cut down on donors, because he appreciates the importance of blood donations and community support.
He and his family took out a newspaper ad last May to thank everyone for their support and he said again Wednesday that he wants to express his thanks to all who offered support.
Doherty would now like to fade into the background, but understands that he is a hero to some and an inspiration to others, and is willing to help when he can.
Last week, in anticipation of the Battle of the Badges ice hockey game to benefit the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock, Doherty visited with patients at the hospital in Lebanon.
This year, it's not the police vs. fire, but rather an East-West challenge, with firefighters and police on both teams for the sixth annual fundraising game, starting at 5 p.m. Saturday, March 16, at Verizon Wireless Arena.
Doherty had been scheduled to skate in last year's game and, amazingly, is ready to take the ice in this year's game.
He's been playing hockey for the past few weeks and said he believes in muscle memory. He's pleased with his skating and how it's helped him physically overall.
His immediate goal: "To successfully play in the CHaD game." He's predicting it will be close.
Doherty, co-captain of the West Team with Manchester Police Lt. Peter Favreau, said six Manchester officers are on the team. "The teams this year are going to be very well balanced," he said.
The financial goal of the Good v Good hockey game is reaching $1 million raised for CHaD in six years. Teams and individual players can be sponsored at chadhockey.org.

My ladies what are amazing and what inspire me and what I love and what live toofuckingfaraway.
C has opened a vintage clothes shop, not just any vintage clothes shop, a beautiful vintage clothes shop. In fact (if I may make a confession) I don't actually like vintage clothes (I know, bad blogger) They smell funny and are usually made of fabric that will catch fire faster than you can say "naked flame". BUT, I kind of want C's whole, beautiful, colour coordinated shop, especially this and this and this, lady has beautiful taste, knows her shit and I'm pretty sure she wouldn't let me wear something that would cause third degree burns.
ESB finally went public what some of us have known for ages, she's a real person (srsly), her name is L------ and she makes films. I honestly don't know if I'm prouder of her for making a film (a real, actual film) or for coming out. All Ages premièred at the Vancouver Film Festival on Friday and it's showing again on Thursday at 1.30pm. If you're lucky enough to be in the area you should definitely go and see it. I would, in a heartbeat. I'd also probably cry, which she wouldn't like at all.
3. Jamie
So I have this daydream. N and I aren't married yet. So we take our babies, we buy some stripy dresses, killer heels and a suit that fits and we hop on a plane to Vegas. We get married by Johnny Cash. Celia and esb are the witnesses, Amanda and Meg hold the babies and Jamie takes the photos. I know it's not cool to fantasise about repeating your wedding but this daydream is the best, so sue me. Anyway, there's a point to this. While my Vegas wedding isn't going to happen (unless..... no), Jamie is teaming up with her lady Michelle to shoot a wedding. FOR FREE. Seriously, two amazing photographers, for free. So if you're getting married sometime between now and mid-2012 have a look here and do your best to get yourself some of this awesome. Extra points for weddings that involve twins, stripes, Johnny Cash and more bloggers than you can shake a stick at.

Replication with Error Working Group
Biological systems are replicating machines that make (a small number of) errors during the machine replication process. From a practical engineering standpoint, we need to understand how to design biological systems that perform as expected. We can imagine that a future biological engineer might be called upon to design an 8-bit counter that has a p(working) > 0.99 upto 256 doubling events. Or, we can imagine needing to design a metabolic pathway that has a p(failure) > 0.99 after 3000 doubling events. And so on. In other words, the evolutionary stability, or lack thereof, for our engineering biological systems should become part of the initial system specification, and our designs should be able to meet these specifications. From a scientific perspective, we suspect that learning how to solve questions of error detection and correction in replicating machines will lead to a better understanding of biological evolution.

11/02/2012 Closing Price: 127.42
Intermediate Term Trend is bullish.
Current Position: FLAT
Working Order: SELL @ 128.25; STOP @ 130.52
Break-Even Price: 125.98; COVER 7,500 (15%)
Current Downside Targets = 124.26 – 123.54
Projected Weekly Range: 1.83
Trading 50,000 Shares
- FXE total trade profits since 07/25/2012 equal $425,500 or 0.85%.
- FXE seeks to track the movement of the Euro currency.
- Although FXE failed to rally higher like we had expected, our long position still managed to make a small profit. This is largely because of our accurate anticipation of the coming week's trading action, and our active stop prices that minimize losses. The final 80% of our trade was exited on Monday's gap higher open, amounting to a total of $19,000 or 0.04% in profits. Had we remained long, current trade losses would amount to $43,700. Price action was bearish and confirmed by Friday's close in the lower 5% of the weekly range, lower than the previous seven weekly closes. Our current working order to sell 50,000 shares at 128.25 would provide a second chance opportunity to enter the market after strong bearish sell signals. Expect trading to continue lower this week, approaching our new downside price targets.
IShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index (EEM):
11/02/2012 Closing Price: 41.60
Intermediate Term Trend is bullish.
Current Position: FLAT
Current Upside Target = 48.19 – 49.23
Projected Weekly Range: 1.14
Trading 135,000 Shares
- EEM total trade losses since 07/25/2012 equal $7,560 or 0.02%.
- EEM seeks to replicate the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index by investing in the underlying international securities.
- Following the current pattern of inverse price action, EEM traded sideways and slightly higher. EEM traded equally as high as the previous week, yet managed to keep prices above the previous low. Closing slightly above the midrange indicates bulls supported the market more than bears could drag it down. EEM is still trading within the weekly range of the exceptionally strong bar ending September 14. Sideways movement has remained choppy and volatile, failing to establish any sense of direction. We believe this will largely continue throughout the rest of 2012. Due to the current level of uncertainty within emerging markets, we remain flat.

- Price action failed to follow through as expected last week. The previous week's strong sell off was not continued last week; SPY found support on Wednesday and Thursday, only to come falling back down on Friday. The daily OVB formed on Friday results in a 78% chance of trading lower this Monday, which should follow through the rest of the week. There currently exists a bullish divergence between weekly closing strength and market prices. Although SPY is currently trading higher than in April, the strength of the closes has been weaker, indicating systematic weakness. Price action was bullish divergent, making a weekly higher high and higher low, yet closing below the midrange and below the open. The weekly close is often considered and intellectual indicator of investor sentiment for the next week's trading. Over the last twelve weeks, ETF analysis and trading has resulted in $1,433,614 (2.87%) in total profits, all of which are closed and locked-in.
