Tech stocks are again leading the rally and the big cap Nasdaq 100 has cleared its 3-month highs. There was a clear cut upside weekly chart break out for the Composite. I need to also be aware that the major indexes are also overbought and am cautious in projecting a lot more upside.
I wrote a Trader's Corner article this past week (9/15) on the subject of the Bollinger Band indicator. You can go this article online by clicking HERE.
Bollinger Bands (BB) combine a centered simple moving average, which is part of the indicator but this 20-day moving average is not commonly shown as in my next chart. Unlike simple moving average envelopes, each Bollinger band is a fluctuating line that is equal to two standard deviations relative to closing prices. Theoretically, 95% of all price action will occur within the upper and lower lines. Each band or line represents implied support or resistance.
The upper Bollinger band seen in my first chart, plotted on the Nasdaq Composite (COMP) index, indicates that recent closing levels for COMP are 'high' on a relative basis. It does not tell us how LONG this might continue to be the case as prices can keep going up and 'hugging' the upper band. The BB indicator at a minimum suggests that there is a substantial risk for a correction, either a sharp pullback OR more of a sideways move. Combined with an 'overbought' RSI and the fact that the S&P and Dow haven't yet cleared prior key highs, there is further reason for caution regarding downside risk.
A final general note is that Bullish sentiment readings over the past week are not suggesting 'excessive' bullishness, so this key indicator isn't flashing the degree of caution as other technical measures of the current market.
On many of my index charts, I show an upper envelope line that is set to the same percentage (above the center moving average) as was seen at the lower envelope line intersecting the last lows. When the trend reverses strongly to the upside, the next top often at least makes an equal percentage gain above the 21-day (center) moving average, as was seen below the average at the last bottom.
The S&P 500 (SPX) is back up at the top end of its 3 month range and overbought. Not a great prospect for another big up leg from here. I view 1140 as tough resistance in the coming week. It looks like S&P is along for a ride with the rally in tech stocks. This chart shows hesitation at prior highs as most of the heat (as buying enthusiasm) is over at Nasdaq. Volume is not weak but it's not as robust.
This is the third time of hourly highs in the 1128-1130 area. If SPX makes a decisive upside penetration of 1129-1131, it could be headed to the 1170 area next. It's not what I think will happen but in this market, would it surprise me? No.
Near support is at 1090; next technical support the 1050 area, extending to 1040.
Bullish sentiment does not indicate any kind of buying frenzy going on in this recent strong price surge; which, in its usual 'perverse' way, should be reassuring to those looking for even higher prices. The market is not getting 'overheated' by a buying 'frenzy'. In terms of my CPRATIO line seen above, 'overheated' on the bullish side is when daily call volume for individual stocks starts popping up above 1.9 times that of total daily put volume for individual stocks. Daily ratios above 2.0, 2.3, 2.5, etc. is indicative of the bulls in a feeding frenzy. (That's also when I tip toe away and let the titans fight it out.) Such spikes in my indicator aren't happening yet, which 'supports' still higher prices in the S&P, but best still in the Nasdaq.
A bullish chart for a further swing to perhaps 520, but not much more at least in the near-term. This assumes however, that the S&P 100 (OEX) gets through what could be formidable resistance at the cluster of prior intraday and closing highs around 512. longer-term the index could get back up the 440 area resistance, the big 'breakdown' point during the market collapse in early-May.
Immediate support 498, then 475.
The Dow (INDU) is lagging the hotter tech sector indexes, which is typical of the phase that we're in. When there were more doubts about economic growth ahead, the Dow was doing very well indeed, especially with cyclical and consumer defensive type stocks doing well. The really outstanding (i.e., strong momentum) stocks in the Dow 30 are still in the defensive and 'basic' necessities type companies like Kraft, MacDonald's; also CAT, DD, and now T and VZ having rocket blasting charts.
INDU seemed to run into selling above 10600 but Fridays don't always tell the complete story. The definite challenging resistance is in the 10700-10720 area; with next resistance around 10800. A move to 10800 area and above in the coming week would put INDU 4% above its 21-day average, equal to the percentage dip below the average at the last (late-Aug) bottom. There's a tendency for volatility swings like these equaling out.
Near support is at 10500; then at 10330-10305.
I've kept Bollinger bands on my Nasdaq Composite (COMP) Index chart. There's a reason to say that 'theoretically' the Bollinger bands contain 95% of trading in a stock or index. John Bollinger devised his indicator by doing a whale of a lot or research with individual stocks. When prices touch the upper band as they're recently doing, there is an increasing probability for, at a minimum, a 'time' correction, where prices go sideways. More likely is a pullback.
I'm also well aware of the 5 percent of the times of occasional monster moves, where prices rocket higher (or lower), pulling the Boli band along so to speak. I don't see what would set off such a buying stampede currently. Encouraging technically for the bulls lately is traders not going overboard on bullish bets. When my call/put ratio starts getting above 2, with occasional spikes to well above 2, I'll take my exit from what the herd is doing. It's just my maverick instinct. What tends to keep me from shorting a still-strong trend is my respect for trend momentum. It's tougher picking a top just right, less so with bottoms.
Immediate resistance 2340, then 2374, extending to 2400. Support is 2250-2246, then 2200.
Bullish sentiment does not indicate any kind of buying frenzy going on in this recent strong price surge. Which, in its usual 'perverse' way, should be reassuring to those looking for even higher prices. The market is not getting 'overheated' as they say. In terms of my CPRATIO line seen above, 'overheated' on the bullish side is when daily call volume for individual stocks is running more than 1.9 times that of total daily put volume for individual stocks. Daily ratios above 2.0, 2.3, 2.5, etc. is indicative of the bulls in a feeding frenzy. (That's also when I tip toe away and let the titans fight it out.) Such spikes in my indicator aren't happening yet, which 'supports' still higher prices in the S&P, but best still in the Nasdaq.
This past week's run up, started very strongly with the Nasdaq 100 (NDX) leaping above 1900, on a gap up Monday. After that the index was in an accelerating advance. Very bullish action NDX is the first of the major indexes to reverse its intermediate-term up trend to up; the long-term trend never reversed to down.
This is the first pattern of higher rally highs, and a breakout of a 4-month price range. Oh, how we miss the doldrums and craziness of summer. NOT.
Looks like easy further gains, right? There is the matter that prices have a greater likelihood statistically of going down from here than going up, at least substantially more. Such after-burner type rallies do occur but only about 30% of the time. Emm, 70/30, how are those odds for a correction.
Key support is at 1900 with next pivotal support at 1850. Key resistance from Friday's 1955 close on up 1983.
What a power move for the Nas 100 tracking stock this past week. Current levels are 5% over the index's 21-day moving average, which is startling for what's come before. If QQQQ gets to 48.6 that's the biggest upside I project before there's a correction. On the other hand, a strong further move above 48.6, would set up not only 49, but 50 as potential further upside targets.
An up surging On Balance Volume (OBV)line suggests higher prices ahead, consistent with the look of the NDX chart, currently on fire. Certainly volume analysis, for a change, is 'confirming' the current strong advance. The tech rally of late has been fueled by solid buying.
Near support: 46.7
Next support: 45.5
Near resistance: 48.6
Next resistance: 49.0; then 49.5
The Russell 2000 (RUT) looks like it is consolidating for a next move to retest prior highs at 665-672. If RUT breaks out above its 665-670 resistance zone, extending also to the 677 prior high, next stop or a key test would be on a move to the 700-720 area.
Near support is 640, then 620. Resistances I've gone over already. If a break below 640 support, good odds exist for a dip to 620.

|Summary, etc.:
One fateful week in June 1967 redrew the map of the Middle East. Many scholars have documented how the Six Day War unfolded, but little has been done to explain why the conflict happened at all. As we approach its fiftieth anniversary, Guy Laron refutes the widely accepted belief that the war was merely the result of regional friction, revealing the crucial roles played by American and Soviet policies in the face of an encroaching global economic crisis, and restoring Syria's often overlooked centrality to events leading up to the hostilities.The Six Day War effectively sowed the seeds for the downfall of Arab nationalism, the growth of Islamic extremism, and the animosity between Jews and Palestinians. In this important new work, Laron's fresh interdisciplinary perspective and extensive archival research offer a significant reassessment of a conflict-and the trigger-happy generals behind it-that continues to shape the modern world.

It's Enough to Make You Sick: The Failure of American Health Care and a Prescription for the CureBy: Jeffrey M. Lobosky (author)Hardback
Up to 2 WeeksUsually despatched within 2 weeks
DescriptionMore and more Americans are finding themselves without health insurance or with coverage that is so inadequate they face financial ruin in the event they actually get sick. So they go without. Their children don't receive their immunizations. They allow that worrisome lump in their breast to grow so large that by the time the cancer has been detected it has spread beyond the ability to cure. Seniors can't pay their heating bills or sustain adequate nutrition as the rising cost of their prescription drugs compels them to make difficult choices. Just how did our system become so dysfunctional and who is responsible? This book will tell you. Too often, discussions on the health care crisis focus a myopic lens on the usual suspects. We are all quick to point a finger at insurance companies who place profit over patients or the pharmaceutical industry that extorts obscene amounts of American dollars for the same drugs that cost 50 to 75 percent less when we cross our borders north or south. We blame trial lawyers who practice with a "lottery" mentality that protects neither the patient from negligent care nor good physicians from frivolous lawsuits. But the culpability for our crisis is more widespread. Hospitals have devolved from not-for-profit, community-based institutions to large, national for-profit chains. Doctors no longer spend time with their patients but instead rely on expensive, and often times, unnecessary tests and use physician extenders (such as P.A.s and nurse practitioners) to move patients along like cars on an assembly line. Politicians pass well-meaning laws as a knee-jerk reaction to a specific issue without understanding the unexpected consequences, which frequently only exacerbate the problem. And they operate in a system of special interests and influence peddling that all but assures the failure of any meaningful health care reform. And while we all demand high quality health care, few actually take preventative measures that could keep them out of the system they deride. This is a public that eats, drinks, and smokes to excess yet exercises far too seldom. It's Enough to Make You Sick: The Failure of American Health Care and a Prescription for the Cure discusses how things got so bad, tracking the origins of the U.S. health care system and illuminating how each of the important components have evolved over the last century. Lobosky explains how the varied special interests have conspired to create a system that is by far the costliest in the world and yet is mediocre at best in providing quality care. He explores the various culprits and how each has contributed to the sad state of affairs. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is dissected in detail, and a practical and compassionate blueprint for meaningful reform is offered to remedy the situation. This book is a must read for every American who is frustrated and disheartened by the recent health care battles, for every American who suffers through the "best health care system in the world," and for every American who wants to assure quality care for themselves and those they love.

Lindsay Lohan
Released: 25th April 2005.
Following Hilary Duff's successful transition from acting to singing, her archrival Lindsay Lohan has followed. This may not be the ideal single to break her into the UK market, but it's a nice, solid pop song that, while fairly typical and not possessing the greatest lyrics, is the style she does best. Overall it makes for a good, guilty pleasure track.
Having achieved great success in the US, Lindsay Lohan releases her first single in the UK. "Over" is a surprisingly good pop/rock song, which could just as easily have been sung by Ashlee Simpson. Improved production and style make this effort a better choice than her US single "Rumours", giving it a good chance of becoming a Top 10 hit.

Last week while skiing above Pole Creek, we had a perfect view across the valley and what was seen opened our eyes wide. Within hours of being home from that tour, I was checking images and topos to figure out a good tour that would involve skiing some of the couloirs we'd seen. Yesterday, my plan was set into motion with Patrick and Matt whose only clue into what was in store was a text message I had sent the day before, "Bring a good lunch tomorrow."
As we started up, the cloud layer hovered above us at around 10,000 feet; the top of the ridge was obscured, but we still had definition on the snow surface when the first climb began. Though we were starting up a well worn skin track, one we'd been on year after year, our destination lay on the other side of the ridge and then the other side of the next ridge too. For some reason, none of us had yet skied the amazing terrain which was just one drop away from civilization; basically, the other side of the road.
The first ridge was gained, skis put on packs, and a bit of 3rd class climbing took us to the top of a series of steep chutes lined by rock features. We dropped in one at a time to one of the straight shots and found hard snow. I skied second to get below Matt and photograph him skiing by me. Matt linked his first few turns, then tripped up and couldn't instantly recover. He slid past me gaining speed, but was out of reach. Luckily he was able to recover, but, that moment seeing him blow his turn and watching that mistake gain momentum was a staunch reminder: if you can't arrest a fall in the first few seconds-good luck.
At the bottom, in the middle of the cirque with lines pointing down to us from three aspects, we shook off Matt's little scare, ate some lunch, and moved further away from the road. The peak which was now just above us, held on its north face, a plumb line couloir which I happen to notice on an image I'd captured during the Pole Creek tour. I wasn't sure if the mystery line went without cliffing out as the image only revealed the top few hundred feet, but the excitement of exploration was coursing through our veins which made the decision to keep going all the easier.
Patrick, who works as a guide for Sun Valley Trekking, was a considerate man as we left our lunch spot and found near bulletproof snow on the south facing aspect we needed to ascend-being the only (smart) guy to bring his ski crampons for a January ski tour and was able to cut an edge which Matt and I gratefully used; we'd have booted, but, the "near" bulletproof should read that with skis on it was difficult to get an edge, skis off and the crust was just strong enough to hold weight until mid step, then you were knee deep in a posthole.
We stopped at the top of the couloir and found that it needed more snow to be able to ski it from the tip-top. But, a snow ramp ran from the ridge to the couloir which would put us only 30 feet from the top. Matt wasn't feeling like he was on his A game and wisely chose to descend down to one of the amazing, yet less techinical, lines lower on the peak. I led the traverse for Patrick and I which went without incident as we found soft snow in the gut of the peak.
Being in the middle of a mountain, on a narrow strip of snow, is one of my favorite places to be. The relief combined with the view and having the descent presented to you as an amazing ski run is unique among outdoor pursuits. The couloir choked down to a narrow funnel twice which added to the fun as Patrick and I leap frogged down.
The tour getting back to the car included both powder filled mid-elevation tree runs, bomber ski chattering crusts, and sun cupped sastrugi. It was an adventurous day exploring a little deeper in the backyard. I think it's safe to say that the three of us are all really excited to drop off and away from the road more often.

"Kitchen Nightmares" host Gordon Ramsay's new renovation reality show will make you think twice about staying at a hotel ever again.
In "Hotel Hell," the celebrity chef steps out of the kitchen and into the country's bed-and-breakfasts and resorts in desperate need of overhaul. The problems range from an unwillingness to change business strategies during a slow economy to -- gross-out alert -- finding a duvet cover that hadn't been cleaned for 18 months.
"It's so obvious what's wrong," Ramsay says of the hotels he visits in the new Fox series. "I don't think common sense becomes that common in those scenarios. That's the frustrating part."

Ramsay swears he didn't travel to these hotels "to create havoc" -- though he uses his trademark bluntness to point out flaws, which rubs some hotel owners the wrong way. "I went in there to position it in a way that they have to be responsible," Ramsay insists.
And some standards, it seems, have dropped appallingly low.
"The shock for me ... was the general hygiene," Ramsay says. "If you had a dentist appointment tomorrow morning and you were going for a filling or a polish, you would see that unique space spotless. I think kitchens and hotel rooms and bathrooms should be exactly the same. The biggest worry across the whole series was the states of the pillowcases. Remove the pillowcases, flash the black light in there for 30 seconds, and I was horrified. I mean literally horrified -- and I'm talking about some very expensive hotels."
On the series, Ramsay's intervention may be the hotels' last chance to stay in business. But in a broader context, he says, consumers, too, can play a part in bettering the hospitality industry.
"I don't think, as a nation, we complain enough," Ramsay says. "We need to demand either our money back or a credit rating [after a bad stay] so we can return there for a much better experience. In order for the industry to get better and the hospitality sector to raise its game, then we need to complain more."
Worst of the worst
Ramsay has important advice for couples looking for a romantic getaway.
"If you get there and they suggest they're going to upgrade you to the honeymoon suite: Don't take it," Ramsay says. "I'm trying to be serious, because it is somewhat ... not just shocking — personally, I didn't think it could shoot that far," he adds, deliberately remaining vague before offering a PG explanation: "Um, I'm talking about if you shake a can of Coke and open it."

Ten years ago, our nation was attacked by terrorists, resulting in the destruction of the World Trade Center, severe damage to the Pentagon, and the loss of life in a field in Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 Americans were killed. September 11th, 2001 was, as one commentator put it, a "Pearl Harbor" day for our generation.
We all can remember where we were and what we were doing.
I was flying that day.
I was flying from Milwaukee to Baltimore via Cincinnati to participate in a recruiting event for the Graduate School of Marquette University. As we landed in Cincinnati for our scheduled lay-over, the pilot made an announcement that there had been a hijacking in New York, and that our connecting flights might be delayed. Once in the terminal, it didn't take long to figure out that there would be no more flying that day. I saw one of the towers fall from a restaurant in the Cincinnati airport. I was still serving in ministry in my previous denomination, and was dressed in clerics. I immediately went to the airport chapel, and spoke to the chaplain on duty, expressing my support and offering any assistance deemed necessary.
It took an hour to find my bag. Luggage from the various planes had been dumped in piles in the terminal. I was fortunate enough to find a nearby hotel, and spent the best part of the next two days (like everyone else) glued to the television. I was finally able to get home via the train -- itself an adventure -- and resume my "normal" daily routine.
Many people have asked "Where was God on that fateful day?" "Why didn't He stop the terrorists?" These are reasonable questions which have no easy answer. Of the many gifts which God has given us, the gift of Free Will is one fraught with questions of this nature. Since the episode in the Garden of Eden, Man has made choices. Some bad, some good.
Free Will was on full display on September 11th, 2001. The mind-numbing evil of the terrorists, yes. But also the good. Oh, the good deeds done on that day. Oh, the acts of heroism. Scripture teaches us that "Greater love has no man than to lay down his life for a friend." On September 11th, 2001 greater love was shown over and over, not only in the laying down of life for a friend, but in the laying down of life for total strangers. New York's Finest. New York's Bravest. Franciscan priest and Fire Department chaplain Fr. Mychal Judge who was killed by falling debris as he knelt to give the Last Rites to a stricken fireman. The passengers of Flight 93. The list goes on.
Where was God? God was everywhere. Grace was rampant.
One further point.
Has anyone stopped to consider that it was by the Grace of God that the tragedy was not even more horrific than it was? Do you remember the original news reports, citing death tolls upwards of 20,000 people? That easily could have happened. Roughly 100,000 persons could have been in those towers on a given weekday. Tens of thousands worked at the Pentagon. Flight 93 could have hit either the Capitol or the White House.
Oh yes. God was there.
Some closing thoughts, taken from The Wisdom of Solomon, chapter 3.
But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God,
and no torment will ever touch them.
In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died,
and their departure was thought to be an affliction,
and their going from us to be their destruction;
but they are at peace.
For though in the sight of men they were punished,
their hope is full of immortality.
Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good,
because God tested them and found them worthy of himself;
like gold in the furnace he tried them,
and like a sacrificial burnt offering he accepted them.
In the time of their visitation they will shine forth,
and will run like sparks through the stubble.
They will govern nations and rule over peoples,
and the Lord will reign over them for ever.
Those who trust in him will understand truth,
and the faithful will abide with him in love,
because grace and mercy are upon his elect,
and he watches over his holy ones.
Papa Z.

|Using Data Analysis to Understand Competitive Overwatch
May 2, 2017
Overwatch Hero Meta Report: PC (S4 W9)
The main trends: Tank play has been completely shaken up, with Orisa, Winston, and even (mostly) forgotten D.Va seeing much more play. They appear to have gained at the expense of Reinhardt and Zarya, who have lost significant popularity. It's really any tank's game now, as virtually all tanks are above 20% usage depending on the tier. Genji and McCree have surged in popularity As a continuing trend, Ana has fallen out of Tier 1 status even at Master and Grandmaster, as Mercy continues to grow in popularity.

What this report is: A report and tier lists for Overwatch hero usage and trends across competitive ladder (Grandmaster -> Bronze), representing data from two weeks of S4 from Americas server.
What this report is not: We do not report any data from professional or Esports tournaments.
For information on our data, see the About page.
Comparing Hero Usage between Tiers
The above chart breaks down average usage of a hero by tier, grouped into the same categories (Offense, Defense, Tank, Support) as found in the game. Generally speaking, higher tiers prefer higher skill cap characters that can reward them for their play, while lower tiers prefer heroes that are easier to learn and be productive with.
Let's take a deeper look at each hero category:
Offensive hero usage continues to evolve. Soldier remains the clear front runner for most popular offensive hero, as he has been since the start of Season 4. Soldier's high damage primary fire, weapon range, healing station, and aimbot ult enable him to be a top contributor to many team composition. Genji's usage has flourished across the tiers (up 2.5% average), likely due to the continued prevalence of dive and 2/2/2 team compositions. With the latest minipatch fixing some bugs related with his ultimate ability (word swing speed and registering hits), we will see if those fixes encourages more players to choose him in competitive play. Tracer is also benefiting from flanker popularity, though she is somewhat only very popular in Grandmaster and more rarely seen in other tiers. Pharah continues to be the #2 most popular offensive hero at tiers Bronze -> Diamond. Despite Mercy continuing to grow in popularity, Pharah's popularity has remained roughly the same since the last report. Pharah, Genji, and Tracer benefit from comboing ultimates with other currently popular heroes such as Zarya and Ana. McCree's popularity continues to rise in the lower tiers, as his usage has increased by 3.5% in tiers Bronze -> Platinum. His flashbang ability is particularly useful for dealing with flankers, and his primary fire helpful for dealing with the ever-prevalent Pharah.There continues to be active community discussion on whether Sombra and Reaper deserve a buff or kit rework. Regardless, Reaper remains a pick mostly played a low tiers (albeit infrequently), while Sombra is the least popular hero in competitive Overwatch.
Bronze tier continues to appreciate defensive heroes much more than other tiers. However, the Defensive category generally contains a group of heroes which continue to be considered niche for competitively play. With the lone exception of Junkrat at the Bronze and Silver tiers, no other defense hero has a usage rate of above 15%. Bastion continues his fall from glory, down another 5% on average across the tiers this report. His popularity is essentially what it was at the end of Season 3 - before the kit rework. The other heroes (Hanzo, Mei, Torbjorn, and Widowmaker) remain very uncommonly seen across all tiers.
Note that Tank play on the whole has not increased, which means that other heroes have actually declined in usage. The main victims are Reinhardt and Zarya , who are both down an average of 5%. Despite this decline however, both heroes remain incredibly popular. Reinhardt remains the most popular tank in the game, and the community still generally views him as the only true anchor tank in Overwatch. Zarya and Roadhog remain the key competitors for the #2 most popular spot in tiers Platinum -> Grandmaster, as higher tiers can exploit the high skill cap of those heroes. Accurate hooks from Roadhog and timely shields and ultimates from Zarya really showcase the strength of those heroes.

Sushi Pop
You know something is well worth the calories when South America's culinary capital adopts it for its own. Born in Argentina's capital, Sushi Pop recently grew up and moved out, landing under the care of renowned Peruvian nikkei chef Mitsuharu "Misha" Tsumura. The pop art (what else)–inspired ambience speaks as loudly and is as varied as the rice roll combos named after international cities from Liverpool to Tokyo. Local dishes like creamy rice with mixed seafood are also available, though it's best to stick to the namesake creation as you ponder which city you want to take a bite out of next.

If the vintage maps and rustic furniture in the small outdoor entryway aren't enough to sell you, let the aroma of Spanish-style tapas keep you firmly in your seat. Pair a glass of wine with a classic tortilla española or a montadito (small toast) topped with asparagus and scrambled eggs, and you've found your answer to the hump-day slump.

The pairing of long beards and craft beer may be a hipster cliche, but there's no denying that the two have stood the test of time (and countless internet memes). Uniting them once again is BarBarian, one of Lima's few draft bars. Despite its primitive mascot, BarBarian is for the civilized appreciator of flavors, offering an impressive selection of brews. Spice up your day with lunch-hour specials like vegetarian wraps and burritos as you enjoy a colorful view of graffitied walls.

El Gran Combo
Sometimes it's okay to give into gluttony, at least a little bit. Serving a rotating, four-plate combination of classic Peruvian dishes, El Gran Combo is the answer every indecisive diner has been searching for. Offering dishes made popular by traditional street carts and offering the intimate, elbow-rubbing atmosphere of the district markets, the tiny El Gran Combo gives you a taste of Peru in more ways than one. Though you may not understand what a carapulcra or a chanfainita is, half the fun is diving into the chef's daily set menu blind but hungry.

Letter to the Editor
NWF and Birds Point levee
Sunday, September 9, 2012
Your paper's Aug. 26 article "Mississippi County commissioners OK letter against National Wildlife Federation" suggests that the National Wildlife Federation is working to stop the rebuilding of the Birds Point levee. Nothing could be further from the truth.
The National Wildlife Federation is working to stop an entirely different project -- the St. John's Bayou-New Madrid project -- because it will put communities at risk. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' own studies conclude that levees and flood walls would overtop in dozens of river communities, as far as 40 miles upstream, if the New Madrid floodway is not used during a severe flood. Closing off the bottom of this floodway with a new levee will make it harder, not easier to operate the floodway to save towns in the area during the next big flood.
The federation is also working to stop the St. John's project because it will cut off the Mississippi River's last natural connection to its floodplain in Missouri; a connection that is absolutely vital for a healthy, sustainable fishery in this section of the Mississippi River. The U.S. Department of the Interior has said that it simply is not possible to mitigate the project's damage to the region's fisheries, wetlands and floodplains.
There are many things that the federal government could be doing to help Mississippi and New Madrid counties recover from the flood of 2011. Wasting $150 million on a project that will put more people at risk is not one of them.

On the Exchange, 2016 summer transfer, only the former Manchester Unitedwinger, Nani, became the most expensive clients Mendez. Portugal midfielder it migrated from Fenerbache to Valencia with a transfer fee of 7 million pounds.
The Manager of Manchester United (MU), Jose Mourinho, announced the list of 25players Red Devils to wading through the 2016-17 season. Midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger, Germany, included in that list.

FA declares, has given time Aguero to appeal to Thursday (1/9/2016) evening local time. After discussions with the Club, Martin decided to appeal the verdict was.
One of the main reasons inasmuch as the Argentina striker would like to take part inaction against MU, derbi at Old Trafford, next week. Because, if proven guilty, Aguero is threatened absent in three matches ahead.

|It's always a surprise when you catch something in a trap that you weren't expecting. Last year we put out 2 have a heart traps to try and catch the groundhog that was digging under our back deck. One trap was near the deck and the other near the woodpile. Well, we caught a critter - a skunk! At least it was near the woodpile and away from the house. We had no idea what to do.
I called a local pest control service company to see if they handled the removal of critters. They no longer did, but gave me a phone number for someone who could advise us. They guy told me what to do over the phone.
Hubby and I were on a mission. We took a large tarp, and early in the morning quietly walked over to the cage and quietly draped the tarp over the cage. As advised, we waited until late in the day when the sun was going down to release our captive. We were told that skunks sleep during the day and the skunk would be kind of sluggish when the time came to release it. Quietly, hubby approached the cage and gently propped the cage door open with a large stick. Then slowly removed the tarp.
The skunk was facing the opposite direction of the cage door and slowly turned himself around and waddled out of the cage. He was obviously a bit disorientated (good) at first, but then got his bearings and quickly scampered off into the woods that ran behind the house.
We were very lucky. It all could have been a disaster if that critter had decided to spray. Now we just put up with the groundhogs.

|You gotta be careful around skunks...one time one was in the henhouse munching eggs. Of course, near sighted me, i thought it was my black and white cat Pirate and There I am , talking to him while I collect eggs and then I realize...hey, wait a minnit..... I do NOT remember my feet touching the ground between the henhouse and the deck about 80 yards away.
The end is nothing, the journey is all.
Apr 28, 2015 6:58 PM CST
|Larry your critters are getting bigger lol,..what did you do with it?,..now of course you are wondering just what else is about and thinking big about the bear trap,..i hope there isn't one about.
Jane it surely would have been a disaster if it sprayed,..great solution in releasing it,..i can well imagine you thinking ok caught it but what now lol.
Annie i woke my dog,.. i laughed so much reading your encounter with the skunk,..you could have been destroyed.

|I take the critters out where there are vast areas of woods and turn them loose, this time I went a little further than I did with the returning O'possum. I think he was back in the garden last night, I went down expecting to see no digging, and surprise...still a digger of some kind around.
Apr 29, 2015 5:42 PM CST
|I thought i was bad with slugs and snails not forgetting greenfly plus the occasional blackbird knocking moss off my dry wall,..it must be an never ending battle with all the various types of critters you encounter there.

Giraffe is bored and decides to write a letter to anyone who Pelican can find over the African horizon. In fact, Pelican is pretty bored too and can use some excitement. Giraffe's letter makes its way into the hands (or flippers) of Penguin who immediately writes back. Commence an endearing pen pal relationship as the two animals attempt to better understand each other and grow a new and comical friendship.
Geared toward high-level first grade readers to lower-level fourth grade readers, Yours Sincerely, Giraffe is a sweet and playful story about friendship, connection, differences, and learning. I laughed out loud as Penguin tries to find Whale's neck and as they attempt to look like each other. Littler kids can enjoy the human-like and relatable qualities of the animals. Takabatake's illustrations are simple and clean, helping to support Iwasa's endearing text. Unfortunately I empathized with Giraffe, finding myself slightly bored. While Yours Sincerely, Giraffe is a great beginning reader chapter book, I found the plot a bit tedious and scattered in regards to each animal's personal story. As a side note, this title was originally published in Japanese.
I would like to thank NetGalley and Myrick Marketing & Media, LLC/Gecko Press for providing me with a free ARC in exchange for a fair and honest review.
Yours Sincerely, Giraffe by Megumi Iwasa and illustrated by Jun Takabatake (Gecko Press, 2017)

The Scottish play bares its teeth and draws blood in Australian director Justin Kurzel's muscular and unflinching adaptation that accentuates the carnage as the doomed title character is undone by paternal grief and naked ambition.
Shot on location in England and Scotland, this Macbeth is rugged and raw, stripped bare of some of Shakespeare's lyrical text for the sake of dramatic expediency and visual spectacle.
Purists may gnash their teeth at some of the alterations in Jacob Koskoff, Todd Louiso and Michael Lesslie's script.
The film opens with a funeral rather than the hurlyburly of the weird sisters, and Lady Macbeth is a brittle porcelain doll, likely to crack at the slightest emotional jolt, rather than a demented dynamo behind her husband's ascension to the throne.
Kurzel chooses to linger on the slow-motion cut and thrust of swords scything through flesh in expertly staged battle sequences that emphasize the title character's credentials as a fearless warrior.
Michael Fassbender is front and centre throughout as the Thane of Glamis, whose encounter with a quartet of prophetic hags sets him on his ill-fated course to self-annihilation.
With its high body count and explosions of viscera, Macbeth is a battered and bruised reworking of a classic text.
Macbeth and Lady Macbeth (Marion Cotillard) are inconsolable at the loss of their beloved son.
On the battlefields, the Thane encounters a trio of witches (Lynn Kennedy, Seylan Baxter, Kayla Fallon) and a child (Amber Rissmann), who foretell his rise through the ranks and eventful coronation at the expense of King Duncan (David Thewlis).
The king's son Malcolm (Jack Reynor) flees and Banquo (Paddy Considine) naturally suspects Macbeth's trembling hand in the foul play.
Macbeth subsequently turns his attention to rival Macduff (Sean Harris) and in one of the film's most harrowing scenes, he orders the execution of Lady MacDuff (Elizabeth Debicki) and her children so that no one stands in his way as decreed by the hags.
With its high body count and explosions of viscera, Macbeth is a battered and bruised reworking of a classic text.
Fassbender delivers a mesmerising lead performance of snarling intensity that overwhelms everyone else on screen.
A cold, earthy colour palette reflects the icy blast of an ill wind that whips through every frame including majestic castle interiors where the scheming and treachery reach a horrifying crescendo.
By shooting on location in challenging conditions, Kurzel compels us to shudder in our seats and seek shelter from the raging storm of the lead character's internal conflict.
However, there's nowhere to hide from the double toil and trouble of this calssic tale.

As busy women we like to look put together but in a short time! Well this make up look will do just that!!!
Brow Bone- Bootycall
Tear Duct- Chopper
Crease- Snakebite
Lid- Half baked
Outer V- Busted
I started with the lid moving onto the tear duct and the crease then the outer V then last I did the brow bone to complete the look.
You want to take half baked and lightly put it all over your lid so it is noticeable but not over powering. Lightly take chopper and swipe in down over your tear duct following through your undereye line. After that take snakebite starting in the mid of your crease brush it outward and then inward trying to give it a smokey look. Now it is time for busted take it from the outer corner of your eye brush it upward and inward giving your eye a complete smokey beautiful but light daytime look. Finishing up with bootycall over your brow bone to show the shape of your brow and open your eyes a little more.
I don't wear mascara or liner when I am doing a soft look as my eyelashes are quite long and dark already.
However, if you wanted to turn this look into a evening look you could add a little more busted over the crease, add mascara and a little but of liner and well as pull chopper underneath your lower lash line.
I hope you enjoyed my Small tutorial! Follow me for updates and keep an eye out for my YouTube get ready with me tutorial coming soon!

The Hayes Nance appliance, (HNA), is a fixed, wire and acrylic appliance used as a retainer to hold space while the permanent teeth are still erupting.
1. A patient should not experience tooth pain from a Hayes Nance appliance. This is a passive appliance holding space.
2. Slurring speech is expected and is a necessary drawback to treatment, but will subside within a day or two.
3. Keep your Hayes Nance appliance clean- Brush it as you would your teeth. Using a Water Pik to clean the acrylic button is helpful to flush foods and debris out. If bands or the appliance is not kept clean, inflammation and soreness can occur.
4. If a sore of the gum tissue occurs, use warm salt water rinses (1tsp salt in 8oz water), 3 times daily for 1 week. Any severe irritations should be brought to our attention.
5. If a band would come loose. Keep the area clean, and call our office during normal business hours to have the Hayes Nance appliance re-cemented. There may be a fee to replace if the band is broken and a new Hayes Nance appliance is needed.
6. Any questions regarding your HNA appliance should be directed to the orthodontic staff.
1. Do not eat sticky, chewy, gummy foods. They are hard to clean off the HNA, and may cause a band to come loose.
2. Do not eat hard and crunchy foods. These will cause the cement seal to be broken and the band(s) to loosen or break.
3. Do not play with the HNA with your tongue as this could cause a sore to develop.
4. Do not neglect your brushing! Bands and HNA acrylic button and wires must be kept clean to avoid inflamed gum tissue.

And nowhere is that more evident than in London, where, yes, you can toss back a pint on every block, but also find legit craft cocktails served in aesthetically on-point spaces that may make you blow off any preconceived plans you had for the night (or afternoon—again, this is the U.K.). Obviously, we love that hotel bars here are a thing here, or rather, a tradition (to skip Claridge's, The Connaught, or the American Bar come cocktail hour is near sacrilegious) and that new icons are certainly in the making (see Mondrian's Dandelyan and then foam at the mouth over that impossibly long green marble bar). Of course there's also the emerging, of-the-moment spots that even those who travel to London more than twice a year probably don't know. Lucky for you, we do.

"Hologram of Liberty: The Constitution's Shocking Alliance with Big Government" by Kenneth W. Royce (a.k.a. Boston T. Party) is a book that makes you think, or at least it should. I personally found it to be quite eye opening, and respect the amount of research that went into this analysis of the United States Constitution. I believe this is an important book, and many more people should read it. And you don't have to take it on face value if you don't want, just go do some research on your own, because Royce provides a great road map with the research he's done, and that's the thing about this book, it contains so many quotes and passages from other sources that support Royce's conclusions.
In this analysis of the Constitution, Royce illustrates the weaknesses of the Constitution, and how the large government we now have has grown because of the way the document was drafted, not in spite of it. Royce definitely believes the Federal Government has become too powerful and intrusive, and I share this belief, although maybe not to the extent of the author. This book shows how the Constitution was not meant to enshrine State autonomy or hold individual rights over federal interests, nor was it meant to stunt federal growth. Big claims? Well, read the book.
Many in our country want to hold the Constitution as almost something sacred, but once you read this book, you will recognize the difficulties and disagreements the drafters had when forming the document, and where compromises and inaccuracies crept in, making it seem much less sacred, and more of typical political wranglings that continue to exist with the formation and drafting of just about anything that comes from our government.
Royce believes changes are coming, and in fact encourages concerned citizens to be part of these changes. He also provides some solutions to some of the problems he points out, and I thought some of his ideas were right on, while I don't foresee some of them ever being realized. I actually blogged about one of the ideas Royce suggested that I really liked. And while I respect freedom, liberty, gun rights, and such, I'm not as anti-government as Royce is, but then maybe I have not been bitten hard enough yet.
I will say this, I enjoyed reading "Hologram of Liberty" and firmly believe that Royce is 100% correct when he says people should "Think. Decide. Act. Now." It is all of our responsibilities to educate ourselves and act on those things important to us. With this book, Royce has provided a well researched analysis of the Constitution that should at the very least make you think a little bit more about our government and why things are as they are. It should also stimulate thought on what can be done to make changes to improve our country. So read this book and become educated on our government and the document it's based on.

Pursuant to a written draft trackage rights agreement, CSX Transportation, Inc. (CSXT) has agreed to grant limited overhead trackage rights to The Indiana Rail Road Company (INRD) over CSXT's line of railroad known as the CE&D Subdivision, between CSXT's connection with INRD's trackage at approximately CSXT milepost OZA 181.70 at Belt Junction, Terre Haute, IN, and at approximately CSXT milepost 204.20 at Sullivan, IN, a distance of approximately 22.5 miles.[1]Start Printed Page 38655
The transaction is scheduled to be consummated on July 29, 2007.

The distance of this corpse.
The memory with you that I spent.
I gave me regret.
Why have you become separated at that time?
What do you do where?
The singing voice that passed.
I disappeared with wind.
The dawn breaks, sight comes into view.
There was no one already.
I wish that oneself wants to disappear from here.
Time went by from that Day of Infamy when I lost all.
I named this event " the Judgement Day".
Like an old scar...
Will you see this world, too?
I want to grow even if I assume sorrow not to be cured
This "Requiem" which wants to let you arrive...!
"I fight against fate."
With your voice.
"I catch a flash of light."
And my heart.
I am put together and become one.
I don't separate it.
I don't separate all.
"I fight against fate."
In you and me.
"I catch a flash of light."
Singing away.
To this requiem.

Pop star Peter Andre stepped out of the recording studio to serve up some tasty treats to unsuspecting shoppers in Leeds today.
The 'Mysterious Girl' and 'Insania' star made a special appearance in the city centre to dish out free food to passersby.
Speaking to the Yorkshire Evening Post about his flying visit, he said: "People in Leeds are very unique and have a chilled out attitude.
"They're not snobby and they don't over-react – they're right in the middle!"
Peter, 42, put on his chef's whites at a pop-up 'surf and turf' shack on Briggate today.
The I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here star cooked up dishes alongside chef Richard McGeown as part Iceland's new 'Power of Frozen' campaign.
He added: "It's been amazing. I learned a lot today.
"It's really good to get involved in the cooking side of things.
"It's been an amazing opportunity to cook some of this food and get people to try it.
"I'm a great cook but not a chef .
"I usually just plop it on the plate – I lack that finesse and presentation!
"Richard helped me make the food look beautiful and put the icing on the cake."
Speaking about his love of Leeds, Peter said: "I have been to Leeds many times.
"One of my really dear friends Danielle – Mel B's sister – is from here.
"She is a really good friend and I knew Mel years ago, back in the day.
"I've also been to Leeds for concerts and I was here for Disney on Ice too.
"I'm quite familiar with Leeds now."
The city centre crowds were treated to a range of free lunchtime samples, including scallops, seabass, salt and pepper squid and venison burgers.
Peter added he may be back in Leeds soon, as he's looking at doing arena tours in the future.

We recently revamped our front porch and gardens. The final touch was a new flush mount light to replace the wonderful light bulb currently hanging down. Isn't the bulb a beauty?
We priced out a few options. Check these out:
Option one is found at Arcadian Lighting
Option two is found at Linens n Things:
Neither was horribly expensive, but on the heels of an expensive porch project they both soared out of our price range. Instead, we hit the Walmart, bought a cheap lamp shade for $4.99 and called it done.
Not quite as fancy as the others but better than a light bulb! Maybe next year we'll splurge on something prettier. Until then, I get great satisfaction from my inexpensive shade.
Other lighting ideas:
Mood lighting can be very expensive check this link to learn how to do this for about $3.00:

The major lesson I picked up from last week was about letting go. Our first assignment had to do with creating backgrounds for our canvasses. I can't tell you how difficult I found it to just let go and get lost in the creative process. I feared messing up. I feared ruining what I made already. I feared doing it wrong, although I wasn't exactly sure what I was doing all the long. This is no reflection to Juliette's teaching skills but something I realized I dealt with quite often as an artist, which is very stifling because if you're bound by this fear, there is no progression in your work. If you're afraid to proceed, you might end up staying put where you are when you should step out and take that risk.
Big deal! We screw up. It doesn't come out right. We mess something up. Go back and cover it up…with paint, cloth, fiber threads or whatever medium you're using. It doesn't matter. You can keep going over that same surface time and time and time again, which I did, until you get to a point that you're happy with the results or you feel its right.
She strongly recommends listening to your intuition and relying on what feels right to you. Use what you're drawn to. You don't have to understand why. In the end, it will all work out and on some level, it will make sense.
After thought posted later that evening:
Regarding art dolls, if you don't want to redo an actual surface by painting it, tear off anything you can or add something on top of it. For example, in the post below, Meadow Sundancer, I kept removing all of the embellishments and outfits several times and reattached new ones. She was completely redone more than several times over a course of a couple of months.

JONESBORO (KAIT) - Attorneys representing Westside School shooter Andrew Golden have filed a motion of protective order to stop a deposition scheduled for this Thursday.
Attorney Bobby McDaniel tells Region Eight News that Golden's attorneys have filed a motion of protective order to stop the release of the location and any information obtained in the deposition to the media.
McDaniel says it is the media's and the public's rights to know information obtained through the deposition, and he plans to oppose the filing as soon as a hearing can be set before a judge.
Golden was released from prison one year ago after aiding in the 1998 Westside School Shootings.
McDaniel says he hopes to get the deposition rescheduled quickly.
Region Eight News will continue to follow this story and have the latest as it becomes available.

While moon gazing is surely a universal experience, not everyone sees the same thing.
As Kim explains in a note, her narrative is inspired by the Korean custom of searching the surface of a full moon for the silhouette of a rabbit using a mortar and pestle to make rice cakes. The story opens in a bedroom, where a raccoon is writing a message, folding the paper into an airplane, and sending it skyward. The view pans to other animals sending their wishes as well. The missives collect in the heavenly mortar, and as Rabbit stirs, the paper transforms into stars until "Wishes fill the sky with light… / …twinkling in the starry night." Kim's scenes are drawn in pencil and then digitally colored, and they have a softness around the edges, establishing a cozy mood that is sustained by the gentle rhymes. Dark backgrounds provide a foil for the starlight, and panels transition to luminous full bleeds, enhancing the magical effect. Kim diverges from tradition by showing that Rabbit has wishes too. In a buoyant, breezy sequence, the creature inflates a star, attaches a string, and floats to Earth to play with the animals. They ride bicycles, drift along in boats, and enjoy readings in the forest. When the lunar cycle is complete and the sky is dark, Rabbit must return home. Once there, however, an airborne delivery enables the long-distance friends to see one another and stay connected.
Lilting lines combine with endearing characters in an effervescent examination of fulfilled desires and kindness reciprocated. (Picture book. 2-5)

15 Year-Old Philly Youths Murder Married Father Begging for His Life… They Were Bored So Killed a White Dude
Two 15 year-old youths murdered a married father begging for his life.
Brandon Smith (l.) and Tyfine Hamilton, both 15, face murder charges in the death of James Stuhlman, who was shot and killed while walking his dog in Philadelphia. (NY Daily News)
They were bored and felt like killing some white dude.
The New York Daily News reported:
Two 15-year-old Philadelphia boys face murder charges for shooting a man while he walked his dog, firing the final round as he pleaded for his life, authorities said.
The cold-hearted teens and a 14-year-old boy targeted 51-year-old James Stuhlman for a robbery after they tired of playing basketball, police Captain James Clark told reporters.
"At one point, he did plead for his life," Clark said Thursday at a news conference. "He said, 'Please don't shoot me, please don't shoot me,' and they shot still shot him one more time."
Cops busted Brandon Smith on murder charges, but the hunt is on for the alleged triggerman, Tyfine Hamilton.
He's considered "armed and extremely dangerous," Clark said.
Don't expect any mass protests or national headlines over this latest senseless murder.

i am working on mindfulness…again…staying present and not losing my mind. looking at my anger triggers. wondering at my anger triggers. the other day one of my kids kept taking the blankets off of me & i was starting to get rabidly angry. then i blurted out–"stop doing that! i had a boyfriend who used to do that & i can't stand people doing that!" and then i remembered. paul fucking valerio. he was an awful motherfucker who used to like to torture me. one thing he would do is take all of the blankets & refuse to give them back. it wasn't funny. it wasn't cute. it was abusive. my triggers are often ways i have been abused. my kids aren't abusing me when they do it–they're just kids that do annoying things without thinking…but my subconscious doesn't know that. my subconscious just reacts. and i get angry. hulk angry.
there are so many ways i've been abused. so many triggers. being ignored is a trigger. having my hair pulled is a trigger. taunting is a trigger. lying is a trigger. calling me a liar is a trigger. behaving as if i don't matter is a trigger.
i want to be a better mom. i see my anger in my oldest. i see him lose his mind like he sees me lose my mind. i don't like feeling this way. i love it when i can be easy going mom. i want to teach him how to deal with his anger. i don't want my anger to be my legacy to my kids.

Here, for the first time, is the full inspirational story of this enthusiastic, self-taught genius. Heston is a gastronomic alchemist who sees the kitchen as a laboratory where he loves to experiment for new ways to tantalise the taste-buds of diners at his Fat Duck restuarant. This biography traces his journey from a life-changing childhood holiday in France, through to his brief apprenticeship in Raymond Blanc's restaurant where he stood up to a kitchen bully.

By Stella Mapenzauswa
JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - At least 80 heads of top South African firms including Anglo American, Barclays Africa Group and Naspers want fraud charges against Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan to be dropped.
The top executives of mostly-listed firms in Africa's most industrialised country - ranging from mining, media, retail and banking - said in a newspaper advertisement on Sunday that political wrangling was damaging an already stalling economy at a time the country faced a sovereign credit downgrade.

The calls by corporate South Africa echo those in the political realm, after a senior official in the ruling African National Congress (ANC) called for the party's leadership to quit over the alleged political persecution of Gordhan.
The rifts are the latest sign of rising political tension as the ANC grapples with waning support since losing control of three key cities in the August municipal elections.
"We stand as one for the rule of law and against the decision to prosecute the Minister of Finance on charges that are, according to the preponderance of expert legal opinion, without factual or legal foundation," the business leaders declared in their statement.
The charges say Gordhan, while running the tax agency, fraudulently approved early retirement for a deputy commissioner and re-hired him as a consultant, costing the tax agency around 1.1 million rand ($79,000).
Gordhan, who is due in court on Nov. 2, has dismissed these as politically motivated.
Zuma has said he is not in conflict with Gordhan and the country's top prosecutor has denied any political motivation. Gordhan said last week his relations with Zuma were very good.
On the same day as the business leaders' ad hit the newsstands, Jackson Mthembu, the ANC chief whip in parliament, urged Zuma to lead senior party officials in quitting their posts, saying fraud charges against Gordhan reflected an abuse of power to settle internal political scores.
ANC spokesman Zizi Kodwa ruled out any mass resignation, telling the News24 media service that "it gives an impression that the organization is divided".
Political analysts say the ANC's ranks are already divided. Several senior leaders, including Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa, have publicly backed Gordhan.
Political analyst Eusebius McKaiser wrote that Mthembu spoke for a critical mass of leaders "who are finally, if rather belatedly, getting the point of the electoral backlash."
Scandals have haunted Zuma for much of his presidency.
The Constitutional Court ruled in March that he failed to respect an order by the anti-graft watchdog to repay some of the 250 million rand ($18 million) in state funds used to upgrade his private home. He has since repaid the money used on non-security features.
His increasingly controversial leadership could hurt the ANC further in the 2019 national elections, analysts say.
But Zuma still enjoys strong support within the ANC and is likely to stay on at its helm until a congress to chose new leaders next year, analysts say.
"There is no denying that the ANC is slipping deeper into crisis," NKC African Economics political analyst Gary van Staden said. "While the Zuma faction continues to hold sway, it must be aware that there is no reversing the trend within and that its time may be running out."

Tomorrow at around 2:25pm asteroid DA-2012 will pass only 17,200 miles from our planet. That's nearly 5,000 miles closer than many GPS satellites! In fact, it's the closest flyby ever recorded by NASA. While scary, at the same time it's cool that NASA can track a 150-foot rock flying so close to us.
Though it won't hit Earth, its impact would be similar to the 1908 Tunguska event in Siberia. Not cool if it hit the ocean or a major metropolitan area!
So, here's another reason to snuggle up and appreciate your loved ones this Valentine's Day!


text: It has been confirmed, Rusell Brand filed divorce from Katy. They weren't the best couple to me; but she was always so happy with him and now they are over. Luckily Katy Perry has Rihanna. Apparently sources say Katy's cope with the divorce wasn't really good. Maybe she was in denial? We don't know. But what we do know is that to ease some stress Katy and RiRi took a vacation to Mexico. Hopefully Katy will see everyday is a brand new day. And that she can move on and still be awesome. Katy we love and we are so sorry for this painful chapter in your life.Read more >
