And so, as they say in the horror movies, it begins…! The unwinding of the Federal Reserve's balance sheet. Such an esoteric concept! Is there one in ten thousand of the millions of people who sit at desks all day long from sea to shining sea who have a clue how this works? Or what its relationship is to the real world?
I confess, my understanding of it is incomplete and schematic at best — in the way that my understanding of a Las Vegas magic act might be. All the flash and dazzle conceals the magician's misdirection. The magician is either a scary supernatural being or a magnificent fraud. Anyway, the audience 'out there' for the Federal Reserve's magic act — x-million people preoccupied by their futures slipping away, their cars falling apart, their kid's $53,000 college loan burden, or the $6,000 bill they just received for going to the emergency room with a cut finger — wouldn't give a good goddamn even if they knew the Fed's magic show was going on.
So, the Fed has this thing called a balance sheet, which is actually a computer file, filled with entries that denote securities that it holds. These securities, mostly US government bonds of various categories and bundles of mortgages wrangled together by the mysterious government-sponsored entity called Freddie Mac, represent about $4.5 trillion in debt. They're IOUs that supposedly pay interest for a set number of years. When that term of years expires, the Fed gets back the money it loaned, which is called the principal. Ahhhh, here's the cute part!
You see, the money that the Fed loaned to the US government (in exchange for a bond) was never there in the first place. The Fed prestidigitated it out of an alternate universe. They gave this money to a "primary dealer" bank in exchange for the bond, which the bank abracadabraed up for the US Treasury. Well, not really. In fact, the Fed just made a notation on the bank's "reserve" account that the money from the alternate universe appeared there. Somehow that money was sent via a virtual pneumatic tube to the US Treasury, where it was used to pay for drones to blow up Yemeni wedding parties, and for the Secret Service to visit pole dancing bars when the president traveled to foreign lands.
Liquidity moves markets!Click here to learn how you can follow the money.
Here's the fun part. The Fed announces that it is going to shed this nasty debt, at about $10 billion worth a month starting this past October. Their stated goal is to reach an ultimate wind-down velocity of $50 billion a month (cue laugh track). If they ever get there (cue laugh track) it would take 20 years to complete the wind-down. The chance of that happening is about the same as the chance that Janet Yellen will come down your chimney on December 24 with a sack-full of chocolate Bitcoins. But never mind the long view for the moment.
One way they plan to accomplish this feat is to "roll off" the bonds. That is, when the bonds mature — i.e. come to the end of their term — they will cease to exist. Poof! Wait a minute! When a bond matures, the issuer has to send the principal back to the lender. After all, the Fed lent the US Treasury X-billion dollars, the US Treasury paid interest on the loan for X-years, and now it has to fork over the full value of the loan (hopefully in dollars that have magically inflated over the years and are now worth less than when they were borrowed — another magic trick!). But that doesn't happen.
Instead, when the theoretical principal is returned to the Fed, the Fed disappears the money, like the girl in a bikini onstage who enters the magician's sacred box and vanishes. Now you see her, now you don't. The explanation, of course, might be that the money was never really there in the first place, so it makes sense to fire it back to the alternative universe it came from. Well, uh, I guess….
The catch is: for a while it was here on earth and folks were doing stuff with it, such as the aforementioned drone strikes and pole dancers. Not only that, but the "primary dealer" banks were allowed to loan out ten times the reserve minimum denoted on their Fed accounts for participating in the scheme. Who did they lend all that money to? Apparently, a lot of it went to corporations who borrowed it at ultra-low interest rates in order to buy back their own stock, which paid dividends way higher than the interest rate they borrowed at to buy the stuff, and which also pumped up the share value of the stocks, which also happened to make the executives of the corporations way richer in terms of their stock options and bonuses (awarded for boosting the share value of the stock!).
And so, shazzam: I give you the one-percent! And a bankrupt United States of America.
And don't even ask about all those bundles of janky Freddie Mac mortgages fobbed off on the Fed. The reason they did that in the first place was because those mortgages weren't being paid off, and the banks and insurance companies that held them were choking to death on them. So they parked them in a crawl space under the Fed's Eccles Building in Washington, hoping they would just turn to compost And guess what: they're no more valuable now then they were then. File that one under Necrophilia.

This handy tool makes discovering beautiful Google fonts simple
An often overlooked Google product is Google Fonts. Not only do these look great and speed up the Internet, but they're also completely free. The only downside is picking one to use in your next project. Better Google Font Finder, by San Francisco-based product designer Mattthew, aims to make that significantly easier, by offering you an interactive guide to the fonts on offer. There's a lot I like about this site. First, it lets you evaluate fonts with either boilerplate text, or your own copy. But it's also eminently approachable, and has a visual approach. It lets you filter fonts based…

"Downton Abbey" said goodbye to an estimated 9.6 million viewers on Sunday night, lowering the curtain on PBS' most successful series in ages with its fourth most-watched episode.
Only the premiere episodes of the last three seasons had larger audiences, topped by the 10.2 million in 2014, the Nielsen company said. The numbers will rise when time-shifted viewing is taken into account; the 2014 season premiere reached 15.5 million viewers after a month.
"These six seasons of 'Downton Abbey' have truly been a fantastic ride for all of us in the public television family," said Paula Kerger, PBS president and CEO.
The household help on "Downton Abbey" proved no match for Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio as television stars. Fox News Channel's telecast of last Thursday's GOP presidential debate was the week's most-watched program with just under 17 million viewers.
Fox News had the unusual achievement of beating Fox's broadcast network in the weekly ratings, Nielsen said.
CBS won the week in prime-time, averaging 7.7 million viewers. NBC had 6.4 million, and won among the 18-to-49-year-old demographic most attractive to advertisers. ABC had 4.4 million, Fox had 3.6 million, Univision had 1.8 million, ION Television had 1.3 million, the CW has 1.19 million and Telemundo had 1.16 million.
The GOP debate led Fox to the top as the most popular cable network, averaging 4.14 million viewers in prime-time. CNN had 2.08 million, AMC and HGTV tied at 1.64 million and USA had 1.58 million.
On the week of Super Tuesday, NBC's "Nightly News" (8.924 million) and ABC's "World News Tonight" (8.917 million) essentially tied for the top of the evening new ratings. The "CBS Evening News" had 7.3 million.
Below are primetime viewership numbers compiled by Nielsen for Feb. 29-March 6. Listings include the week's ranking and viewership.
1. Republican Presidential Debate, Fox News, 16.83 million.
2. "NCIS," CBS, 15.45 million.
3. "The Voice" (Monday), NBC, 13.33 million.
4. "The Walking Dead," AMC, 12.82 million.
5. "The Voice" (Tuesday), NBC, 12.29 million.
6. "NCIS: New Orleans," CBS, 11.73 million.
7. "60 Minutes," CBS, 11.44 million.
8. "Madam Secretary," CBS, 10.19 million.
9. "The Big Bang Theory," CBS, 10.08 million.
10. "Criminal Minds," CBS, 9.32 million.
11. "Survivor," CBS, 9.24 million.
12. "Scorpion," CBS, 9.23 million.
13. "American Idol" (Thursday), Fox, 8.74 million.
14. "Life in Pieces," CBS, 8.4 million.
15. "Modern Family," ABC, 8.22 million.
16. "The Bachelor," ABC, 8.17 million.
17. "Mom," CBS, 7.98 million.
18. "NCIS: Los Angeles," CBS, 7.94 million.

Spotted Toad Whimsical Belt
Click on the Shop on Etsy button to visit my shop there.
This fabulously funky belt is from Zacatecas Mexico, vintage 1970.
The rare belt is entirely hand crafted and the leather is textured, beautiful and supple.
It has never been worn and is in excellent condition.
The buckle is covered with an actual toad body skin and fastens with a hook which goes into any of the five holes.
Belt is 38 waist size..(Could be adjusted at belt side by shoe shop.)
Materials: leather
SteelGoatStudio offers a wide and fascinating range of wonderful objets dart, primitive folk art and iconic cultural pieces, many of which I have collected in my travels to many countries. I have always been drawn to hand-crafted and indigenous pieces which illustrate the arts, philosophies and icons of the many cultures and art movements I have been fortunate enough to explore. My listings here on Artizan Made links to my shop on Etsy. If this item has sold, you will hopefully find similar pieces that capture your attention.
Almost at the beginning of my traveling life as a museum professional, I became captivated with the shrines found in so many cultures. I began studying the reasons and objects that people incorporate into the receptacles of sacred relics and remembrances and the methods they use when making them. I really love and admire the idea of creating honorable or sacred places within a container where homage is paid to someone or something of significance.
Many years of creating artistic shrines have commenced. Along with the artifacts I have collected, I use a multitude of found receptacles including wine crates, cigar boxes, orange crates, and even cardboard boxes as the vessels for these assemblages. I strive to achieve depth and texture by using a variety of techniques and materials: as wide ranging as historical stencils, rusty found objects, old book pages, vintage and period wallpaper, and whimsical recycled pieces, all composed in a robust palette with a contemporary slant.
I also offer pieces in their original form in the shop, alongside the pieces I personally create. After years of enjoying many of the artifacts, I have included them in this shop to share with those of you who also appreciate fine hand-crafted, culturally rich pieces.

Thanks everyone...well here is what happened. I checked the level and it looked to be low. So I bought some fluid and a funnel and started adding a little, but just like Steve said, the level is a pain to read. So I called that shop and they told me to come over and he'd take it for a drive. So by this time, I probably added less than 1/4 of a quart of ATF. First he checked the fluid, and he said it was a little low, but not low enough to be causing problems like I had described. Then he drove it and it was doing the same things. He definitely said it was late upshifting and thought it might have even been skipping a gear. While he drove it, he manually shifted up and down a few times. It shifted fine when he did it manually. So then on the way back to his shop, it started shifting fine again in D. While we were there, we topped it off and I left. Altogether I added maybe half a quart if that. But for now it's shifting fine, I just hope it continues shifting ok!! He mentioned that maybe a valve inside the tranny could have been stuck or been hanging or something, and the manual shifting got it loose. This sound reasonable??
Well for now the car is doin ok. I'll see if it keeps it up. I'll keep you guys updated if it starts acting up again. Thanks!

September Fonts Roundup: Space Age Nostalgia
Let's face it: back-to-school fonts tend to be boring and cheesy. So much chalkboard! So many bubble letters! That's why for the month of September we're bringing you a fonts roundup that's as escapist as it gets. Introducing: FONTS FROM SPACE! A selection of typefaces that will get you not just out of school, but out of the atmosphere… into the stratosphere… and straight into the intergalactic.
Revisiting our own school days got us into a retro frame of mind.
First, Space Age makes the introductions:
Then, Orbitron shoots us into orbit.
Warning! Things may get dramatica with Plasmatica.
Of course, designers have different aesthetics. If you feel the space age theme is a little thin…
…try Quarterly BRK…
or Neris:
Meanwhile, if your design process is starting to feel a little robotic…
…maybe you'll want to check out Anita:
Or Kimono:
But you can always preserve your humanity. With these typefaces humans and cyborgs can really have a dialogue.

text: I have a Walther P22 as well and I absolutely love the pistol. Ive put about 1k rounds thru mine and it has only failed to eject twice, and it eats anything I feed it. However I don't particularly recommend it as a carry pistol but it's a hell of alot better than carrying nothing. I did notice something random tho.. While out plinkin' in the desert I slipped the pistol into my holster on my waist which is a Blackhawk Serpa (Level 2) for the Glock 19/23 etc.. it fit just fine and clicked right in. Maybe you could consider one of those?

The Haircut
Jack's had several haircuts, starting from the time he was about 11 months old (no, we did not wait until he was one year. His hair was all around his ears, did not seem comfortable, and was wild, so he got his cut early).
As many of my "regular readers" likely have noticed, Jack has some curly hair. It's nice and thick and blonde, and it grows fast. He's been due a haircut for a couple of weeks, at least - he comes in with his head dripping with sweat when spending a morning outside in this Tennessee heat, and I know his hair was probably making his head pretty hot:
Check out that tongue while the man commits some serious work to his art!
So, off we went on Monday to get Jack's haircut (and mine, for it was too long and I needed that hair off my neck - did I mention the Tennessee Heat?). I'm lucky to still have family caring for Jack and me - I see the orthopedist Tuesday, so knock on wood that this cast will be off and replaced by something I can walk in.
A requested that I ask the hairdresser to take clippers to Jack's hair, as it's just so hot (80's-90's during the daytime here in middle Tennessee) and this would give him a nice, short summer 'do. Our hairdresser, Shelly, seemed a little reluctant, but went right ahead. Curls fell to the floor. Here's the result (doesn't he look happy):
I have to admit, I had a "Whoa, did we do the right thing" moment at the hair salon. I think because the haircut transferred him from looking more "baby" to looking more "little boy". This is definitely "little boy" hair, as a playgroup mama friend commented. I really like the haircut now, three days later, but when the haircut actually occurred, I had some serious doubt and regret.
Everyone really likes the hair too - except for my mother (who reads this blog). She was trying to bargain with me over the phone to let him have curls in the cool weather, but keep it cut like this over the summer. I think she mourned the loss of his curls - but they're not lost, believe me - those curls aren't going away.
My husband LOVES the hair. He had an ear to ear grin when he saw the little man's new 'do. The haircut looks almost exactly like A's, and they look like such a pair - it's pretty cool.

Summer is my favorite season and we still have several weeks left of hot weather and extreme sun exposure. It's important to always apply sunscreen when your activities take you outdoors. Whether it's a walk in the park, a day at the beach or an afternoon in the pool, sun protection is crucial.
ShopRite recently sent me a package of four different sunscreens. I was pleasantly surprised and excited to try the product since our family uses a lot of sunscreen during the warmer months.
I spend a lot of time in the yard grilling, entertaining company and gardening. Our toddler son loves the pool and the beach. I always make sure I keep sunscreen in my gym bag, beach bag and at close reach when we're in the yard. Here are some tips to make sure you are always prepared for outdoor activities and protected from harmful UV rays:
My family felt that the ShopRite brand sunscreen was just as good as any name brand we've tried. I prefer the conveniences of a spray bottle since it allows me to apply sunscreen to hard to reach areas. Next time you need to replenish your stock of sunscreen, consider picking up ShopRite brand on your grocery run.

Hi guys as a street art fan I'd like to check out some of the local spots that the artists hit around the centre of Paris. I was a fan of Blek Le Rat long before Banksy ripped off his style and I'm not sure if any of his pieces remain? Any ideas?

Check out day #7 of the Advent calendar on Phreads great blog
She tells about a free app for your smartphone called Urbacolors that lets you track street art, and if you go to their website you can check their collection and see if anything from this artist is listed.
I feel a link to AnyPortInAStorm coming on....
LOL Here's one
I did a blog post on street art awhile back -- the actual graffiti changes pretty rapidly but the areas are all rich in graffiti. in the post is a link to a site on line that has a detailed map and suggestions for a street art walk. I used that for my walk and the directions are excellent and take you m;any places you aren't likely to stumble onto on your own.
my post is:
Compliments Jane. Really great blogpost.
And here is the Anyport link for rue Dénoyez:
However if you sift throught the 7 pages of this link, you will also find a lot of things in Paris:
Vandalism is removed by the city within 12 hours of being notified of it, which reduces the amount of graffiti defacing Paris. It also seems to be less popular generally than in some other cities.
A key incident was an invasion of the Louvre Métro station some years ago by vandals who covered the art reproductions in graffiti. The transit authority removed the vandalism overnight and the incident had a very negative effect on public opinion.
Well, it certainly had a negative effect on you if you mention that incident since it happened 35 years ago, so it is not really relevant to the 21st century. And I'm sure you know that it is the RATP itself that has left the Louvre-Rivoli in a disgraceful state for the last two years, merely changing the date on the posters informing people of when the station will be renovated.
Graphic street art is not to be confused with graffiti in any case. There are plenty of walls in Paris where it is totally authorized, so I'm not sure what you are on about, euromaniac.
It was far less than 35 years ago, although I don't recall the exact date.
It is not authorized on any of the walls I see it on. If I see any hoodlums form the 'burbs with paint cans in their hands, I'll direct them to your building.
Okay, I looked it up -- it was in 1992, only 21 years ago.
You don't know much about street art, do you?

Some great things to note:
- The "For Sale" sign - I've lived in this complex for almost 3 years and this sign has been there since before day one. Apparently, there's been an empty condo the entire time I've lived here.
- The SUV - This car has been broken into at least twice since they seem to leave valuables in their car and we live across the street from not-the-nicest apartment complex.
- The open garage door - For some reason or another (and in spite of all the car break-ins), someone seems to leave their garage door open for an extended period of time at least once a day. And most times the open garage door reveals no car which, to me, says that not only is the garage door open, but no one is home. We've got some real safety-conscious home owners is what I'm saying.

Yesterday was a rough day that ended up being a write off. I woke up normally enough, but went to a breakfast meeting and started seeing in blurry technicolor with a complete loss of focus except for tight areas I was looking directly at. It was annoying making it difficult to focus on the meeting (and must have looked a bit tweaked out at the time). I finally figured out that it was a coming migraine after realizing the weather was rapidly changing though it also made it somewhat difficult to drive home. In any event, I'm playing catch up now after sleeping through the day.
In the meantime, I found this both funny and true - Last minute advice from a Veteran Slacker (Slate):
Well, you've no doubt heard all manner of theories regarding the root cause of procrastination. Fear of failure. Crippling perfectionism. Abnormally low type-2 phloxiplaxitus levels.
I'm here to tell you that it was none of these things. The root cause of my procrastination, in technical terms, is this: I'm lazy. Extremely lazy. [...] The trick to overcoming procrastination is even simpler. Ready? Here it is:
Get off your fat badonk and stop procrastinating. Right now. No, not after the Gilmore Girls rerun ends. Now now.

Snow's the word.
Well it seems to me that the East Coast has totally went white....with snow! Nothing ruins plans better than a totally white 2ft of solid material blocking your doors. But have no fear because Cheyenne is here! I have the perfect solutions to all snow in participants.
1) Pick your warmest pair of PJs. You arent there to look cute. The temps are dropping and that means you need some solid clothing.
2) Have a movie marathon. Yes, this is giving you permission to pull out your collection of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and whatever nerdy/totally amazing series that toots your horn. Nothing passes time like an adventure.
3) Txt that cutie you've had your eye on. Distance makes the heart grow fonder. A couple of icy days can be instantly warmed up by some steamy txts.....
4) Get with some comfort food. I've got my share of hot cocoa and warm delights. You've got a free pass on your diet. I wont tell if you don't.
5) Enjoy yourself. Relax. Take some time off. Don't just spend your time on Facebook whining about that party you missed. Who knows? Maybe while you are relaxing you will discover the cure for cancer!
Snow Ins arent just a burden but a blessing. Appreciate the time.
Happy Snow.

Did you receive a text message from Conway National Bank telling you to call a toll free number due to suspicious activity on your Conway National Bank account? There is a chance you actually have a CNB bank account, and there is an even better chance that you don't.
This text message is part of a phishing scam in an attempt to get your bank information and steal your money. The bank vice president, Virginia Hucks, has officially stated that Conway National Bank did not send those text messages. "It's not just Conway National Bank customers, it's non-costomers as well that are getting the message. They have no idea who our customers are."
So there ya go. Don't respond to the text message. Just delete it and hope it doesn't wake you up again!

A Quick Kobi Fix!
Has it really been this long?! Oh my! Here is a quick "Kobi Fix" for you guys and I promise to have pictures posted ASAP! LOL! (Also see "Before & After" post below) Here is the scoop on whats been happening in our home. Kobi has had his 2 year check-up (yeah its a little late) and we have got some skin issues! Just last Monday we saw the worst allergist I have ever met in my life (actually it was the only allergist I have ever met) and Kobi was tested for every food group and some other things. This woman was unbelievable but that in itself is a whole other story! Now since the day Kobi was placed in our arms his beautiful skin has been transformed from a flawless complexion to a splotchy, eczema stricken, scarred, bumpy mess followed by pigment loss. So since I have seen several pediatricians (that give me know answers) in allergist was next on the list. I swear to God this child's skin reacts to certain foods and soaps. If he even eats applesauce the next day he has chicken pox ("looking bumps") on his body. I wash all of his clothes in Seventh Generation detergent for babies (use no dryer sheets on anything) and even Dreft is to rough a detergent to use. So last Monday Kobi was tested for every food group, etc and get this the doctor says he's fine, no allergies! I looked at the woman, covered Kobi's ears and said "Lady I don't make this shit up! There is something wreaking my kids skin!" To which she says nothing that requires an epi pen. Now in my blonde head I'm thinking "Yes I know because I feed him...!!!! But you mean to tell me that the bumps that appear after he eats an orange is not related?" Her answer was they could be related but his throat isn't going to close up, now anymore questions? Ughh!!! So in an attempt to diagnose my own kid how many of you have ever had Tinea Versicolor and severe eczema? I treat one and it makes the other look worse. Lovely cycle! Kobi is scheduled to have some blood work done to rule out Vitiligo along with testing for anemia and when those test results come back with no true information just like everything else then I guess I will start buying "miracle creams" off the internet! So any advice is greatly welcomed in this department. I know for a fact that Kobi has a form of Eczema (and no I have never been told that he does but its obvious that he must, however he never itch's or complains about it) and that there must be some product (from Canada/ Mexico) somewhere that helps get rid of the redness/ Eczema. I've tried everything! ADVICE PLEASE! My last resort is the dermatologist because I truly believe these issues are diet related. Now that everyone is updated I better get a move on in the picture department! :)

Bathroom Before & After
Kobi's bathroom is almost finished! With the exception of quarter round molding and accessories I can say I'm somewhat happy with the finished product! As most of you know I had no desire to spend any kind of real money on baby mans bathroom. Quite frankly I just don't know how long we will stay in this house as I feel like the walls are already closing in on me:) So here is the run down on my expenses. Now remember this was my "Design on a Dime" bathroom. LOL!
1. New peel in stick floors~$30 Home Depot
2. New toilet (since I cracked the tank putting the old one back in place and hey it was ugly anyway) ~$300 screw up. Home Depot
3. Paint~ $35 Walmart (for walls & ceiling)
4. Paint for cabinet~ $18 Rust-Oleum. This went on well (thin but that was a good thing. I used gray primmer then high gloss black)
5. New mirror~ $60 (Yes! Only $60 bucks at Home Goods... Rock On!)
6. New lights~ $275 Home Depot Expo
7. New ceiling fan/ light~ $80 Home Depot
8. New faucet~ $80 + $119 (Note to self... check how many holes are actually drilled in the sink if you are not replacing the counter top before you purchase a way cool bamboo style faucet on Overstock.com that requires only one hole and get this you have two! LOL! Its fine I needed another faucet for the basement bathroom anyway:)
9. Two shower curtains~ $50 total on clearance at Bed Bath and Beyond (I used one to make the curtain)
10. Curtain Tie Backs~ $6 Again on clearance at Bed Bath & Beyond that I used like a "curtain rod" to make a swag
11. New Shower Curtain Rod~ $15 Home Goods strikes again!
12. New Bath Mat~ $12 You guessed it... Home goods!
13. New knobs~ $15 Home Depot Expo
So that puts me out roughly (Drum Roll Please!) $976.00
Under a grand "Woo Hoo" and no more ugly blue and white floors!

DC Zoo & Metro Too!
Kobi had his first train ride on Sunday. Ahhh... public transportation. LOL! He did awesome! I had forgotten how loud the Metro was and that it goes through tunnels but nothing seemed to scare Kobi so all was good:)
As soon as the train started his face had the biggest smile. It was the cutest thing just to watch his facial expressions the entire ride.
Once at the DC Zoo we hit the Asia Trail first.
When Kobi saw the panda bear he screamed "Look Panda Drinking His Nay-Nay!" (Milk, which is not how any of my Mandarin teachers have spelled it in English but this is how I read it and so this is how I write it... sorry I'm "phonetics" challenged :) Some Chinese people standing by started laughing.
It was really neat to watch the panda's. They play just like children! These must have been young ones.
The red pandas were Kobi's favorite and so he now has a new stuffed one that he affectionately named Home Depot. With the addition of the new red panda we now have a bedtime ritual. Kobi's beloved Ber-miss-son, Benjamin and now Home Depot must be tucked under the sheets every night before bed. There's one more giant panda that has been named get this... Pickles. However Pickles isn't cool enough to get covers like the rest of Kobi's buddies. Sorry Pickles, apparently your not in Kobi's posses. LOL!

Lacrosse Preview: Exhibitions
Before the Michigan lacrosse team kicks off their campaign to defend back-to-back MCLA National Championship seasons, they'll participate in 3 scrimmages against varsity squads. D-1 Bellarmine will visit Oosterbaan Fieldhouse on Sunday, with D-3 teams Wittenberg February 6th and Ohio Wesleyan February 12th. If you want to see Michigan compete against some pretty good teams (and hopefully show they're worthy of varsity status), the exhibition seaosn is a good chance.
Bellarmine Knights
Bellarmine plays at the top level of NCAA Lacrosse, in Division 1. That said, they're certainly a lower-tier D1 squad, finishing 6-8 last year, and #52 of 59 by LaxPower's computer rankings. Bellarmine is located in Louisville, Kentucky and participates in the Great West Lacrosse League. Their most notable win came against Binghamton, who finished with a 90.7 power rating. Notable losses came at the hands of a couple schools you may have heard of by the names "Notre Dame" (11-6 winners) and "Ohio State" (11-7 winners).
The Knights return their top 3 goal-scorers from a year ago in Sean Doyle, Derek Hopcroft, and Jarrett Davis, all seniors. They also return their #2 groundball collector in sophomore Karsen Leung, though they lost #1 in that category, faceoff specialist Bobby Snider. Their #2 faceoff guy, Craig Carson, is a sophomore this season, and he won 48% of draws last year. Goalkeeper Scott Bowles, who started 12 of Bellarmine's 14 games last year, returns for his junior campaign. He went 4-4 last year, saving 50% of shots faced and allowing 10.51 goals per game.
Though Bellarmine was kinda bad last year, they return a lot of their important pieces, and they certainly have the ability to reload more than a club team like Michigan. This should be a good challenge for the Wolverines, and a chance for fans to see them against D-1 competition.
Wittenberg Tigers
D-3 lacrosse is considered to be about on-par with the MCLA, in which Michigan plays. Wittenberg finished 66th out of 156 teams in the division by LaxPower's computer rankings last year. Their final rating of 83.93 is well below Michigan's 89.90. Wittenberg plays in the same conference as Ohio Wesleyan, Michigan's next scrimmage opponent, and lost to the Battling Bishops 13-7 last season. The Tigers finished the season 7-6.
Last year's leading scorers were a duo of sophomores from Pickerington North High School (alma mater of Justin Boren) in Matt Lord and Mitch Cohagan. Faceoff specialist Kevin Pfotenhauer, who won 53.4% of his draws last year, returns as a junior. Both of last year's goalies, Mark DeOliviera and Spencer Baker, return, and DeOliviera was a captain last year as a sophomore. He saved 60% of shots he faced, and allowed just over 8 goals per game. Assuming no attrition, the roster should be very experienced for 2010, as there were only 3 seniors on last year's squad.
Wittenberg, though they played near middle-of-the-pack in Division 3 last year, will probably be a better team this time around, and should be a good test for the Wolverines. Michigan scrimmaged the Tigers prior to the 2009 season as well.
Ohio Wesleyan Battling Bishops(!)
Ohio Wesleyan was the most successful last year among Michigan's pre-season opponents. The Battling Bishops, on top of having an awesome mascot name, finished 10-5, and with a 90.24 power rating on LaxPower, good for 16th in D-3. Against competition of Michigan's approximate caliber (89.90), they lost at Lynchburg (89.7). The Bishops lost to Denison in the first round of the D-3 NCAA tournament.
Rob Young is the team's leading returning scorer, but the next two from last year (Nick Gallagher and Karl Zimmerman) have both graduated. The faceoff duty was split last year, and Ricky Sheetz, who had the most opportunities and won 56% of his draws. The next two in line have both departed. Jud Hall was the team's starting goalie last year, and he'll be a junior in 2010. He allowed 7.76 goals each game, with a .561 save percentage.
Based on power ratings, Ohio Wesleyan should be Michigan's toughest competition of the pre-season, and they're the last chance to prepare for the regular season.
And Then...?
After the exhibition season ends, Michigan kicks off their regular season with a road trip out west over spring break. They'll play games at Arizona, Arizona State, and rival BYU. A full preview of the regular season (including, you know, a preview of Michigan's team) will be coming up when the regular season draws near.

For more real estate news, please visit: DQNews.com. Also check out BankingMyWay to compare mortgage rates.The median price paid for Las Vegas region homes fell to $159,000 in January - the lowest since spring 2002 - as foreclosures' share of the resale market hit 73%. Lower prices triggered enough home sales to surpass the year-ago transaction level for the fifth consecutive month, a real estate information service reported. A total of 3,127 new and resale houses and condos closed escrow in the Las Vegas-Paradise metro area (Clark County) in January, down 21.8% from December but up 24.8% from January 2008, according to MDA DataQuick. The San Diego-based firm tracks real estate trends nationally via public property records. January marked the 10th consecutive month in which sales of existing single-family detached houses rose on a year-over-year basis, while resale condos have seen an annual sales gain for seven straight months. Total home sales, which have suffered from the decline in new-home construction, climbed above the year-ago mark for the fifth consecutive month but were the lowest for a January since 2000. The 249 new homes sold - detached houses and condos combined - marked a record low for any month in DataQuick's complete Las Vegas statistics, which go back to 1994. The median price paid for all homes sold in the Las Vegas metro area fell to $159,000 in January, down 9.1% from $175,000 in December and down 37.6% from $254,990 in January 2008. The January 2009 median's 37.6% year-over-year decline is a record for any month in DataQuick's Las Vegas statistics.
The overall median sale price has fallen on a year-over-year basis for 21 consecutive months and stands 49.0% below the region's peak $312,000 median in November 2006. Last month's median was the lowest since it was $158,100 in May 2002. Another gauge analysts monitor indicates greater price erosion since the peak: The median paid per square foot for resale detached houses fell to $90 in January, down 33.8% from a year ago and down 52.7% from the $190 peak reached in June 2006. Across the West, the median sale price - the point where half of the homes sold for more and half for less - has fallen for reasons beyond the drop in home values. For example, more of today's sales involve foreclosures, which tend to sell at a discount and be concentrated in more affordable communities. Also, the August 2007 credit crunch made larger "jumbo" mortgages more expensive and harder to obtain, which has led to slower sales in higher-priced neighborhoods. (A dropoff in high-end sales can tug down the median.) About 73.2% of the Las Vegas-area houses and condos that resold in January had been foreclosed on at some point in the prior 12 months, MDA DataQuick reported.

I pulled this out the other day, a superb blast of punk energy from antipodean upstarts The Saints. Not that any of them looked much like punks. Which probably makes them more punk. This song, recorded and first released in 1976, was hugely influential on the early London punk scene (along with the first Ramones lp), as 7" copies made their way from the southern to northern hemisphere like spiky driftwood. Coming from Brisbane in the mid 1970s they probably did feel pretty stranded- no offence to the people of Brisbane but it is a long way away from where the action was. (I'm) Stranded is an utterly life affirming recording and one of those cases of, although they had other songs, this one song by them is all that matters.

Wealth inequality is the populace's unequal distribution of assets. She explains that when rich people say they have no money, they can still spend for their needs and limited wants. Just don't have enough for luxuries or extravagance. The clarification comes from her when concerned individuals start to check her out. This prompted her to post a clarification through her Facebook account on what she said earlier.
Youtube video from; GMA News
[VIDEO]: Sharon Cuneta, nilinaw na walang third party sa relasyon nila ni Sen. Kiko Pangilinan
What Cuneta Meant
Since many people are concerned that Sharon Cuneta does not have money anymore, she said; please understand that when wealthy people say they owe money and have no one to help them, all they mean is that they still have money to play their obligations. They can also afford to travel first class to the US for a break. But just don't have the money to buy their dream house in America for example. The Megastar shared this thought on her official Facebook page.
No One to Help Her
Cuneta mused that all she meant was she became smarter about what she buys now, and about the timing of things. She just wishes that her Dad is still around to help her. So, the speculations that her husband, Senator Kiko Pangilinan is falling short of her expectations do not fall in line here. She even dismisses the rumor of her husband having an affair with a fellow Liberal Party mate, Senator Riza Hontiveros.
Mid-Life Crises
Cuneta seems to be going through a normal phase in life called mid-life crises which should be between 35 to 58 years old. This is when depression bouts in when loved ones die or some changes happen in life – or no changes at all. She said that two people die on her in the last few weeks. Her favorite aunt is also sick. The filming of her Star Cinema movie is postponed to September. She also owes so much money on very good investments and not stupid ones. These might not be as bad as other people might experience but these changes can surely put a toll in a middle-aged person's life.
The Poorest Billionaire is Still a Billionaire
I am probably the poorest, most cash-strapped billionaire you know, said Cuneta. But in spite of that, she is still filthy rich. She is just going through a phase in her life same as other people. This only proves to show that a megastar is human after all. She just has to be on her own and focus her purpose in life which all people must do.

" Indiana Governor Mike Pence's conservative track record on immigration
dates to his earliest days in the U.S. House and echoes the hard-line
stance of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who chose
Pence as his running mate.
During his dozen years in the House,
Pence lent his support to numerous bills aimed at overhauling the
immigration system, including a limit on the number of visas issued to
each country and efforts to allow individual states to stand up
border-patrol militias and to define English as the country's official
language. And he supported building a border fence nearly a decade
before Trump made such a pledge a cornerstone of his campaign for the
White House.
In 2005, Pence joined efforts to pass a sweeping
immigration bill that was among the first to propose hundreds of miles
of fencing along the Mexican border. It also proposed a $3,000 fine for
immigrants living in the country illegally who agreed to leave and then
stayed. It created punishments for aiding an immigrant living in the
country illegally. The proposal was approved by the House, but failed in
the Senate.
A year later he supported the successful Secure
Fence Act of 2006, a narrower bill focused on border security that
ultimately led to the construction of nearly 700 miles of border
Pence said on Wednesday that he supports Trump's "vision for
the country" when asked about Trump's proposal to build a wall at the
Mexican border.
"I think as President Ronald Reagan said, a
nation without borders is not a nation," Pence said. "I think it's
absolutely essential that we have border security and I have strongly
supported that throughout my career. We have to get the border under
control and I support Donald Trump. I think he's got the right vision
for this country."
Pence co-sponsored the Good Fences Make Good
Neighbors Act of 2006, a bill to let border states use federal grant
money to build "a physical barrier" near the Mexican and Canadian
borders to stop illegal immigration.
A year earlier he supported a proposal to let border states launch militias whose members could make arrests.
Pence has also signaled support for a changes to
immigration law that would redefine which children born in the United
States would automatically become citizens.
He supported a bill
in 2007 and again in 2009 that would have limited automatic citizenship
to children who have at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen, legal
permanent resident or is serving on active duty in the military.
2005 version of the bill that he supported called for automatic
citizenship for children whose parents were married, so long as one of
the parents was a citizen or legal resident. In cases of unmarried
parents, the child's mother had to be a citizen or legal resident.
In business and politics, Donald Trump likes to go with his gut. His
selection of Indiana Gov. Mike Pence as a running mate appears to be a
lesson in what happens when he doesn't.
Trump introduced Pence as
his No. 2 on Saturday, passing over candidates with whom he has a more
personal connection in favor of an experienced politician with solid
conservative credentials. GOP leaders – many lukewarm at best about the
outsider at the top of their ticket – were nearly unanimous in praise.
getting to that moment of party unity was chaotic, with many of the
twists and turns playing out in public – and not in a way the
spotlight-seeking Trump prefers.
On its own, the muddled lead-up
to Saturday's announcement is unlikely to impact Trump's standing in his
general election fight with Democrat Hillary Clinton. But it provides
some of the clearest indications yet of how he might handle
high-pressure decisions as president, where few choices are easy and his
personal preferences are just one of many factors to consider.
"It does cause one to question how and what kind of
process he would use if he were actually president and had to make some
of the decisions," said Lanhee Chen, the policy director to Republican
Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign. Still, he said it was
instructive that Trump "can be influenced against what his instincts
tell him."
By midday last Wednesday, Trump and his aides were
signaling that he had decided to go with Pence. The campaign was making
plans for a splashy Friday announcement aimed at dominating the weekend
news cycle heading into the Republican convention.
Then came a hectic Thursday.
was in California for fundraisers, thousands of miles from his closest
advisers, including his oldest children. A voracious consumer of news,
Trump fumed as he watched television reports declaring he had settled on
Pence before he'd made a call to the governor. Two Republicans with
knowledge of the process said he felt boxed in by advisers and other
Republicans who preferred Pence over the two other finalists, New Jersey
Gov. Chris Christie and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.
A call from Trump Thursday afternoon prompted
Pence to get on a plane to New York for an announcement the next day.
But shortly after the governor touched down on the East Coast, Trump
declared in a television interview that he had not made a "final, final"
decision. He further clouded the process when he abruptly postponed his
announcement event, citing the truck attack in Nice, France, that left
more than 80 people dead.
Around midnight, Trump and his top
advisers convened a conference call to discuss the frenzied day. That
fueled speculation that Trump might be changing his mind.
Trump knows exactly his level of certainty as he zeroed in on one of the
most important decisions of his campaign. Top advisers vigorously deny
he considered making a late change, with campaign chairman Paul Manafort
saying he "never waffled once he made his decision." Notably, Manafort
did not say when that decision was made.
It was enough of a
muddle for Hillary Clinton's campaign to leap into action and draw
attention to what they cast as Trump's apparent wavering. Her campaign
released a web video Saturday contrasting clips of the Republican
touting his decisiveness with the timeline of the past few days. As the
video ends, the words on the screen read, "Donald Trump. Always
Divisive. Not so Decisive."
Indeed, Trump's own actions – saying
he'd not made a final decision even after Pence was summoned to New
York, then delaying the announcement – left the distinct impression of
So, too, did the actual announcement event on Saturday, at
which Trump meandered for nearly a half hour on a variety of topics –
including an update on the construction of his new hotel in Washington –
before finally calling Pence to the stage, only to then immediately
walk away. There were no "Trump-Pence" signs in the room, which appeared
dark and somewhat subdued on television.
"With picking a VP, it
just looks bad in the press," Pete Wehner, a former adviser to President
George W. Bush and a sharp critic of Trump, said of the whole process.
"That's a lot different when you have the powers of the presidency."
Trump needs to look no further than the man he's hoping to succeed for a
warning about how even a single instance of indecision can linger.
2013, President Barack Obama was on the brink of launching airstrikes
against Syria for using chemical weapons against civilians, something
he'd said crossed a "red line." Then, Obama pulled back, saying he first
wanted to get approval from Congress. A vote was never held and the
strikes were never launched.
Obama has spent the past three years
defending that decision. It put Middle East allies on edge over his
commitment to the region's security, and even some of his advisers have
said it was a mistake to stand down.
A long and bruising campaign
with Clinton stands between Trump and the possibility of that kind of
high-stakes situation. Time for voters to weigh both his instincts and

Before you become alarmed, I'd better explain myself. Marci Alboher, in her book One Person / Multiple Careers coins the term "slash" to describe a person with several co-existing career identities. (OK, I used the word "slasher" rather than "slash" in the title of today's entry, but I just had to get your attention!)
Alboher, a former lawyer, now labels her "slash identity" as "author/ speaker/ coach." She states that she, like the numerous people described in her book, thrives despite (or perhaps because of) the complexity of her work choices. And what incredible career combinations she has interviewed! Her book profiles an Olympian turned lawyer/filmmaker/mother, a computer programmer/theater director, a lawyer/minister, and many, many other "slashes."
Alboher's book shows us that, now, identity may be much more fluid than ever before. Why should we pursue only one career at time – particularly in the age of instant messaging, email and telecommuting? Why can't we take on projects utterly unrelated to our primary careers? And why can't primary careers change to secondary careers and then back again?
For me, Alboher's ideas are just what I need to hear. For the first time, I feel that it's not terribly odd to be a lawyer/tea entrepreneur/mother. In fact, combinations like that are becoming more and more typical in our rapidly changing workplace. This sort of complexity may not work for everyone, and it certainly involves serious compromise, prioritization, and let's face it, juggling. Nevertheless, according to Alboher, it works for a growing number of people.
I particularly like her suggestion that we all have the wonderful opportunity to re-invent ourselves regularly. What a way to live – open to possibility and change, open to exploring all of our talents and interests (though of course not all at once). I can't think of anything more inspiring and empowering.

I Want To Start A Business
Well, like many small businesses, the first years were touch and go financially. But whether this is something you've been dreaming about for years or an idea that's just recently struck, you need to make a plan before you fully dive in. This guide walks you through the steps required to start a business. For instance, it is unlikely that you'd be able to run an automotive repair business in a residential area.
If your business is related of restaurant, frozen, chips, homemade food, grains and others are applicable to have Halal license. Many people actually dread the thought of having to plan a big bash for friends or family members because it takes so much organization.
Most small businesses need to register for a basic business license in their city. Your personal assets could be used to pay business debts if the business can't pay. If you think your business can deliver something other companies don't (or deliver the same thing, but faster and cheaper), you've got a solid idea and are ready to create a business plan.
To be successful in business you must give time to business, take some risks and pressures and at times you must …
