Eagle Ford Shale Geology
The Eagle Ford Shale is a Cretaceous sediment that was traditionally known as a source rock in South and East Texas. The formation is the source rock for the Austin Chalk oil and gas formation. Producers also drilled through the play for many years targeting the Edwards Limestone formation along the Edwards Reef Trend. It was not until the discovery of several other shale plays that operators began testing the true potential of the Eagle Ford Shale. The shale is more of a carbonate than a shale, but "shale" is the hot term of the day. The formation's carbonate content can be as high as 70%. The play is more shallow and the shale content increases in the northwest portions of the play. The high carbonate content and subsequently lower clay content make the Eagle Ford more brittle and easier to stimulate through hydraulic fracturing or fracking. In geological terms, the Eagle Ford dips toward the Gulf of Mexico.
The formation was first targeted by Lewis Energy in 2002, but most give Petrohawk Energy (acquired by BHP) credit for discovering the Eagle Ford play many are targeting today.
Legacy Austin Chalk producing areas (e.g. Giddings Field) have not proven to be the best drilling targets for the Eagle Ford. One theory is the Eagle Ford Shale formation improves as you move south due to degradation of the Austin Chalk's reservoir properties, which in turn means the play expelled less oil and retained more.
Pearsall Shale Formation
The Pearsall Shale is a gas bearing formation that garnered attention near the Texas-Mexico border in the Maverick Basin before Eagle Ford development truly kicked off. The Pearsall Shale is found below the Eagle Ford at depths of 7,000-12,000 ft, with a thickness of 600-900 ft. Several operators, including Anadarko, Chesapeake, and Newfield, all expect to develop the Pearsall over time (aka when gas prices are better). Exploration in the play will increase as natural gas prices rise to a level that warrants activity.
The play does have liquids potential east of the Maverick Basin. As of 2012, only a few wells had been drilled in the play outside of the Maverick Basin. Early results indicate there is potential that has largely been overlooked.
TXCO Resources, who later went bankrupt and sold its assets to Anadarko and Newfield, touted the potential of the Pearsall before Petrohawk's Eagle Ford discovery in 2008. The excitement was short lived as TXCO didn't make it through the recession and the Eagle Ford's liquids yields supported better economic returns in a low natural gas price environment.
Eaglebine Formation or Eaglebine Shale Geology
The Eaglebine isn't a single geological formation, but is the name used by operators to describe wells that target both the Woodbine and Eagle Ford formations in a single wellbore. The Woodbine formation is best known as the prolific reservoir in the famous East Texas Oil Field. The Eaglebine is largely targeted at the northern extent of the Eagle Ford region (e.g. Gastar in Leon County, Chesapeake in East Texas).
Eagle Ford Shale Geologic Structure
Eagle Ford Shale Depths and Isopach Map
The Eagle Ford Shale producing interval is found at depths between 4,000 and 14,000 feet. The shale is up to 400 feet thick in some areas, but averages 250 ft across the play. Generally, natural fracturing is not prominent. To date, the most prolific area for production occurs along the Edwards Reef Trend (Stuart City Reef Trend) and where it converges with the Sligo Reef Trend. Both geologic distinctions are also referred to as the Edwards Margin and Sligo Shelf Margin.

Dems, tea party unite vs. McConnell
Tea party activists looking to oust Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in a GOP primary may get some help from an unlikely source: Democrats.
Big Democratic donors, local liberal activists and a left-leaning super PAC in Kentucky are telling tea partiers that they are poised to throw financial and organizational support behind a right-wing candidate should one try to defeat the powerful GOP leader in a 2014 primary fight.
Story Continued Below
The idea: Soften up McConnell and make him vulnerable in a general election in Kentucky, where Democrats still maintain a voter registration advantage. Or better yet, in their eyes: Watch Kentucky GOP primary voters nominate the 2014 version of Todd Akin or Richard Mourdock, weak candidates who may actually lose.
( Also on POLITICO: Steep Senate path opens for GOP)
"We are doing a lot of reaching out to some of the tea party folks across the state," said Keith Rouda, a field organizer with the liberal group MoveOn and the Democratic super PAC, Progress Kentucky. "What we're finding — at least in this stage of the race — we're finding that our interests align. It's unusual."
Progress Kentucky has begun circulating petitions urging Republicans to jump into the race, and Democratic donors active in Bluegrass State and national politics are privately making it clear they're willing to help bankroll a tea party candidate. Neither the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee nor the Kentucky Democratic Party is involved in the unorthodox efforts at this point, officials said.
( PHOTOS: Mitch McConnell's career)
Sarah Durand, president of the Louisville Tea Party, said Democratic donors and activists have told her that they'd be willing to spend seven figures in a GOP primary to help a candidate willing to challenge McConnell. Durand said the challenge for tea party groups is to recruit a candidate who wouldn't hand the seat to the Democrats, even though, she said, tea party leaders across the state are not satisfied with McConnell's three-decade tenure in Washington.
"I guess the fear would be ending up in the Dick Lugar situation where you oust the incumbent and end up with a Democrat," Durand said. "But I really think if Sen. McConnell can't garner some enthusiasm within the tea party, which is going to be very difficult at this point, then he's going to have a really tough road ahead in this election cycle."
Behind the scenes, the wily McConnell and his veteran campaign staff are moving swiftly to snuff out any primary challenge.
McConnell's staff has attended more than 100 tea party meetings in the state over the past two years, and the leader himself has stumped at three tea party rallies, including one with Sen. Rand Paul — the junior senator from Kentucky who was elected in 2010 on a tea party wave — in the state capital of Frankfort last August.
McConnell has held face-to-face meetings with several tea party types, including meeting Durand and her fellow activists for coffee right before the November election; her group is one that is skeptical of recruiting a primary challenger against McConnell.
McConnell has also been very quick to bring under his wing the two biggest forces in tea party politics in the state: Paul and freshman Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), who initially was seen as a possible primary threat to the GOP leader.

Nunzio of Antidote returns with part 2 of our ongoing interview with him - this time we dive into Antidote and the recording of Thou Shalt Not Kill. Thanks Nunzio. -Gordo DCXX
At the time we were getting our act together, the early New York hardcore 'scene' was just beginning to take form. We had places like 171 A, A7, and the Rat Cage music store to meet at and check out new bands. Everyone in a band at that time hung out down there and by Tompkins Square Park. Antidote, the Beastie Boys, Reagan Youth, Murphy's Law, Kraut, the Undead, Agnostic Front, Cause For Alarm, Heart Attack, The Psychos, the Abused and a few bands I'm forgetting at the moment were always hanging out at these places between shows. Then when Hilly Kristal at CBGB's started the Sunday Hardcore Matinees, he kind of gave us a permanent weekend home and daytime hangout spot. And that's the place that turned what was happening at the time into a scene, because every person driving or walking past Bleeker and Bowery had to eventually confront a giant mob of crazy Punk and Hardcore kids in their natural habitat so to speak!
As far as our recordings, we went into the studio the first time to record the songs that became Thou Shalt Not Kill with HR and Earl from the Bad Brains as our sound engineers. When I heard the recording of that session I thought the whole thing sucked sound and performance wise, so the whole thing wound up in the garbage can. It occurred to me that we needed our regular soundman and Jerry Williams was that guy. Two months later we went back into the studio to do it all again and this time the result was great. That's the session you hear on Thou Shalt Not Kill pretty much note for note.

That recording session went pretty much perfectly, and that's because we had the luxury of trying once before and this time I made sure we were ready. Googy and I had been on recordings before but our bass player had never been in a recording studio before, so he got a bit intimidated the first time around. We banged out the 8 songs live and we nailed them all on the first take this time. Then Louie did his vocals over the rhythm section, and I took an extra track for a few leads and guitar sounds that I tacked on. As with our live show back then, my idea was to try and capture the band's extremely high energy performance. Having John Joseph hanging with us and getting up for a chorus didn't hurt the vibe either.
As far as the guitar sound on the recording, I had this cheap, tiny little practice amp - I think it was called a Fox 1st Avenue amp. It was a tiny box with a six inch speaker and a click on distortion button on the back. I swear to Christ, that's the truth. Jerry positioned it on a barstool with two sound dampening walls on either side creating a vacuum of sorts, then moved the whole get up into a long corridor type of room outside of the actual studio. A vacuum in a vacuum so to speak. One mic was placed in front of the speaker and another mic was placed on a stand at the opposite end of the corridor. And that is how my "wall of Marshall stacks" sound was created. With a cheap-ass six inch speaker!
I'm one of those artists that always thinks that nothing I've ever done was good enough, or that it could've been better. That's what led to the re-recording of Thou Shalt Not Kill in the first place. But honestly, as a lover of high powered and high energy hardcore I've always felt that the record was phenomenal and that someday somebody else would notice. I'm glad that that time finally seems to have come.
When I listen to it now I hear the impassioned plea of a struggling young man, or band, crying out for hope and togetherness of some sort in a world gone mad. Even though I wrote it a long time ago it feels like it could have just been released yesterday in some ways and though some of my opinions have grown since then, I still feel that a lot of the record's core message still remains true in my heart.

Thanks for the recording specs and story about the amp.
This record is one of the best in hardcore. Truly heads above the rest of that era.
Great entry.

Why does everyone always have to have that little backhanded compliment about Antidote? Why are people afraid to just say "It's a great record, period." Why confuse ignorance with personal opinion?

Because writing xenophobic bullshit IS ignorance in the first place. Not to put a damper on your right as an American white dude to conveniently overlook anything that doesn't directly effect you.

Fellow wreckies, you will never in a million years believe what this cake is supposed to be:
Go on. Try to guess. I'll wait.
Did you guess a buck-toothed snake?
Did ya? Did ya didyadidyahuh?
'Cuz that's not it.
Here, I'll give you a hint. It's the same thing THESE are supposed to be:
(Pay no attention to my snazzy photoshopping; I had to take out a piece of flotsam that might give it away.)
So now you're wondering what a buck-toothed eel has to do with a leprechaun's pots of gold.
Good question.
Ah - but the plot is about to thicken!
Much like these mashed potatoes.
And yes, this is also the same thing those other things are supposed to be.
Ok, if you haven't figured it out by now, here's the clincher:
All clear now?
Ok, ok, then THIS one will do it for sure:
Or maybe I'm just messing with your head.
(So that's, you know, coming along. I've been working with a vocal coach. Which, come to think of it, doesn't make much sense when I TYPE everything...)
Thanks to Zack Z., Jayme H., Jason C., Colin G., & Melissa K. for the boot to the heads.

Brian,Thanks for outlining the proper way to lube the actuator. Nice to know there are rubber boot repops available. Guess I will have to research them as Jack brings up a good point. As you can see, mine have seen their better days.
Here is the reason for the 3/8" gap on the right headlight door. Its amazing how these cars can make fools out of you. The slop on the canister bracket bolt holes and the slight change in mounting position didn't allow the piston to pull the door shut.Thanks for the help guys!

Patient discussion about ataxia
Q. Can I inherit ataxia to my children? I have Ataxia. Does this mean that all my kids will have it too?
A. The hereditary ataxias are genetic, which means they are caused by a defect in a certain gene that is present from the start of a person's life. There are both dominant and recessive ataxias. If it's a dominant ataxia then each child of a parent with an autosomal dominant ataxia gene has a 50/50 chance of whether they will inherit the ataxia gene or not. If it's recessive then it takes a "double dose" of the ataxia gene to result in disease symptoms. Both parents must be carriers of the disease gene in order for it to pass on. Each child of parents who are both carriers of a recessive disease has a 25% chance of inheriting two ataxia genes so will develop the disease, a 50% chance of inheriting just one of the ataxia genes and, therefore, be a carrier and a 25% chance of inheriting no ataxia gene and be completely free of ataxia.More discussions about ataxia
Therefore, it depends which ataxia gene you have, if it's dominant or recessive and whether your spouse is a carrier too.
Therefore, it depends which ataxia gene you have, if it's dominant or recessive and whether your spouse is a carrier too.

For many of us, summer is winding down. This means it's time to re-evaluate the relationships, results, and experiences you've created over the past few months. As with every season or every quarter, it's a good idea to update your online brand to reflect the changes that have taken place in your life, even if there haven't been any major shifts. Here are a few things to consider updating:
LinkedIn. In the professional world, your LinkedIn profile can attest to your experience, your accomplishments, and your network. It's certainly in your best interest to update it often - not just when you are looking for a job or want something. Another reason to keep your LinkedIn profile up-to-date is quite obvious: it's easy to forget the little things, like the percentages, numbers, conversions, etc. that prove your accomplishments. Do your online and personal brand a favor and keep these updated results on your LinkedIn profile. That way, should you ever need to look for a job or need to use the platform to network, you don't have to rush and cram information in there (which may look rather obvious).
Biographies and "About Me" sections. At times, our professional and personal lives transform so much that our biographies and "about me" sections on our online profiles no longer reflect the kinds of people we are.
For example, many recent graduates use social networking to find jobs, and share this with their network. However, now that those graduates have landed positions, they may fail to update this information on their profile.
List the industry you work in, your duties, location, etc. That way, your biographies and "about me" will indicate your new or updated brand, giving your network a better idea of who you are.
Your connections. You probably chose to "follow" or "friend" certain people in the past for specific reason. However, if you've switched industries, interests, or no longer find a certain user to be beneficial to your professional life, you might want to update your connections to reflect this. Further, if you follow or friend too many people or brands, it may be more difficult to connect with your network.
Every once in a while, try to edit or cut down your list so you can operate your online networks better. Follow different users who can add value to your brand; interact with those who you've lost touch with. By doing so, you not only breathe new life into your online platforms, you keep it fresh and up-to-date.
Get rid of profiles you don't use. It happens to many of us. We sign up for the latest online platform, use it for a while, and then forget about it. While this is all well and good in the present, it doesn't do much for your online brand in the future. After all, if you saw a Twitter profile from someone in your network that hasn't been updated in months, you probably don't have the best view of him or her.
If you don't use an online platform multiple times a week, if may be a good idea to get rid of it. You could also take this time to revamp these platforms with the intention of actually using them in the future. Just be sure to make a conscious effort to do so (even if you're busy), like scheduling posts or creating a blogging calendar that's strictly followed. Even if you start small, it's still better than leaving your platforms out to dry.
What else do you need to regularly update online?

Charlotte Olympia Resort 2012
Rev Up with Charlotte Olympia's Sky-High Resort 2012 Collection
>> Like Christian Louboutin and his red soles, a Charlotte Olympia shoe is instantly recognizable by its two-inch front platform. As such, the label's Resort 2012 collection is rife with platform pumps — updated in colorful satin, leopard, denim, dots . . . and there's even an espadrille style. But for those who like to feel the ground under their feet, there are a couple of options sans platforms — and even one pair of leopard-print flats. The whole collection, in the slideshow, is now available for pre-order on Moda Operandi.

Paris Saint-Germain coach Laurent Blanc returns to his old stomping ground of Girondins de Bordeaux today as the reigning Ligue 1 title holders look for a pre-Champions League boost.
The French capital club travel to Greece to face Olympiakos in Europe on Tuesday next week, but the clash with Bordeaux is the first of a hectic run of seven games in 23 days which will also see them face Monaco, Benfica and Olympique de Marseille.
PSG are yet to lose this season, but draws in their opening two Ligue 1 games were followed by not entirely convincing wins against promoted duo Nantes and En Avant de Guingamp just before the international break.
However, they have already had the measure of Bordeaux, beating the French Cup holders 2-1 in the Champions Trophy at the beginning of last month.
"Bordeaux are one of these teams who are capable of defending well and punishing you on the break," PSG's Christophe Jallet said this week.
"We saw that in the Champions Trophy before we turned the game around late on. We know what to expect and what we need to do better against them this time around," he said.
It will be a special occasion for Blanc, whose three years in charge at the Stade Chaban-Delmas were highly successful, with Bordeaux winning the title, the League Cup and the Champions Trophy in 2009 before reaching the last eight of the Champions League a year later.
Now in the away dugout, he must improve PSG's rather poor record in the Gironde, where they have won just seven times in 39 previous visits. Today, Blanc will again be without Jeremy Menez, who is suffering from kidney stones, and must decide whether his returning international stars, such as Sweden's Zlatan Ibrahimovic, France's Blaise Matuidi, Brazil's Thiago Silva and Uruguay's Edinson Cavani, are in condition to play.
"Zlatan came back very, very tired after playing in Kazakhstan on an artificial surface," PSG assistant coach Jean-Louis Gasset said in a radio interview, indicating that Ibrahimovic may not feature this weekend.
France's other representatives in the Champions League group stage are Marseille, who travel to bottom club Toulouse tomorrow.
Before hosting Arsenal in Europe on Wednesday next week, OM will be looking to get back to winning ways domestically after a 2-1 home loss to Monaco in their last outing.
Since that game, coach Elie Baup has seen France under-20 World Cup-winning duo Florian Thauvin and Mario Lemina arrive from LOSC Lille Metropole and Lorient respectively, and it is possible that they could make their debuts for the club.
The early pacesetters are Claudio Ranieri's Monaco, who have no European commitments to worry about and who entertain Lorient at the Stade Louis II on Sunday before travelling to face PSG.
The principality club should be able to call on Radamel Falcao, who suffered an ankle injury in the win at Marseille, but played in Colombia's 2-0 defeat in Uruguay in World Cup qualifying in midweek, while France midfielder Geoffrey Kondogbia could make his debut after his recent arrival from Sevilla.
Meanwhile, Olympique Lyonnais entertain Stade Rennais at the Stade de Gerland aiming to halt an alarming run of four successive defeats in all competitions.
However, OL fans will be hoping Bafetimbi Gomis features for the first time this season after returning to training following a summer-long dispute with the club.

Number two….sooo cute!
Love the straightforward look on the suited man…
the parisians like to start them young, eh? that girl is going to be so gorgeous when she grows up!
The pink dress is lovely.
I LOVE the shot of the girl in the pink dress – awesome outfit and lovely shot!
I think that little girl has a better cut than me! SO CUTE! adorable tights and vintage shoes, right on! :-D
So much loveliness. I cannot bear it. My heart flutters.
The laidback androgyny of the first outfit is to be coveted for!
Pic 4 is my favourite, she's a little F.I.T (Fashionista In Training)!
awww the photo of the child is so cute!
i love when people try diferent stuff, like a florar spring dress, and black pantyhose, and white shous, it turned out really nice…
i don't get it
The girl is adorable !
thank you for featuring her! when your a parent you appreciate the little kids style its so free unconfined to anything. have a nice day sart :)
is it a child dressed up like an adult or an adult that looks like a child?
love the kid photo! it's always good to see a diversity of ages and styles. fantastic!
I am in love with the lady in the pink dress.
WOW WOW WOW – I have just discovered your blog via South of the Sahara – and I am addicted!!!! these pictures are just absolutely stunning & amazing!!!
The little lady is awsome!
i like it when kids aren't dressed up like little play-things. she's such a little person (as in, she looks very adult). i hate how pink and purple- and all that accompanies them- are forced on girls. doesn't she look like she could be the daughter of #1 somehow?
doesn't she just look like a little person (as in, she looks very adult). it's great when kids aren't dressed up as little play-things. i hate how pink and purple- and all that accompany them- are forced on girls. doesn't she look like she could be the daughter of #1 somehow?
Ms. Pink would have looked great with bare legs. The black tights aren't the business.
I wonder if the little girl chose her own clothing for the day? I believe in letting kids pick out whatever mish-mash of things they want to wear…the results can be inspiring!
Luv luv luv that pink dress; it has such a beautiful and subtly complex structure. Though I agree with the poster who said those opaque black tights did not work well with it.
The shoes did, however. I am planning on buying a very similar pair, myself.
That kid is so adorable and stylish!
this little girl is the perfect stereotype of how the "bobo" children dress, in paris
I'm underwhelmed!
That little girl is simply precious
the pink dress and the black tights do not go very nicely together. the black is so dark for those bright colors…. the little girl is so cute!
Awww…love the little boots with the tights and skirt.
Awwww!! She's adorable!! I love it when kids dress up, they become too cute to be true!! I agree with Anon 7:00, she does look like the person in photo # 1, maybe it's the hair.. I'm not that fond of the person's style in the first photo, but there's something that shines through.. Not sure what it is, maybe it's to do with confidence, and how comfortable one is in their own clothes..
I love the contrast of the pink dress with the black tights. I didn't expect to see such a stark look for the legs.
My favorite is the little girl. It's so refreshing to see a child in simple, nice clothing (in contrast to the growing number of children in clothes plastered with logos of Buzz-Lightyear or Disney Cinderella; essentially, walking advertisements). Though a bit ironic, I feel that her sophisticated earth tones are far less dreary than the gaggles of small girls dolled up in frilly, bright or pastel colored outfits stamped with princess logos. The background of big, floppy trees and the girl's mischievous grin make me long for childhood.
So cute!!!!
LOVE the pink outfit! Pretty with a funky edge! I think black tights and white shoes also look HOT and wore them here in Sydney through this past winter.
that little girl has more style than i do.hahah
Very cute I would wear that
the woman in the pink dress has got it all wrong. am i the only one that thinks so. rule of thumb – black leggings should NEVER be teamed with bare shoulders – it's just too garish. cute dress though – shame about the ensemble
Love, absolutely love the black tights with the summer dress and the white open-toe shoes. In cases like this, not always, but in cases such as this I'm all for hosiery with open-toe shoes. Very classy and idiosyncratic ensemble, truly inspiring. The wonderful background brings it out even more. This just makes me feel happy. Thanks.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Major U.S. stock averages soared Tuesday as signs of progress on the "fiscal cliff" talks and improving homebuilder confidence lifted investors' spirits. In addition, rating agency Standard & Poor's upgraded sovereign credit ratings on Greece after its completion of a distressed debt buyback. Eurozone member states have a "strong determination" to keep Greece's membership in the region, S&P said. Expectations for a budget resolution continued to build as President Barack Obama on Monday night approached Republicans with a counter-offer that included lowering his demand for higher taxes on wealthy Americans. House Speaker John Boehner emerged Tuesday morning and proposed a so-called "Plan B," which the White House subsequently rejected. Stocks continued to climb despite the morning's political posturing. In recent days, Republicans appeared to have been softening their position on higher taxes and Democrats seemed to have become more open to entitlement concessions, though progress toward a deal is still slow going. Republican Sen. Bob Corker on Tuesday highlighted this, saying, "We're not close to a deal." "Still, markets are trading with a positive tone as global equities are currently higher. However, we would advise caution in the headline-driven environment," said Eric Viloria, senior currency strategist at FOREX.com in New York. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 116 points, or 0.87%, to 13,351. The blue-chip index began the session up 8.5% this year. Breadth was positive, with winners outnumbering losers 25 to five. The biggest blue-chip gainers were Bank of America ( BAC), Hewlett-Packard ( HPQ), United Technologies ( UTX) and Intel ( INTC). McDonald's ( MCD) shares advanced 0.68% as the fast food chain requested that franchisees stay open on Christmas Day, Ad Age reported. Boeing ( BA) shares gained 1.2%. The aerospace giant lifted its quarterly dividend by 10% to 48.5 cents a share and said it plans to buy back $1.5 billion to $2 billion of its shares next year. Losers in the Dow included General Electric ( GE), Verizon ( VZ) and Coca-Cola ( KO). General Electric shares fell 1.1% amid reports that it's close to reaching a deal to buy Italian aerospace supplier Avio for about $4 billion. The S&P 500 was up 16 points, or 1.15%, at 1,447. The Nasdaq added 44 points, or 1.46%, at 3,055. All sectors in the broader market were trading higher, spearheaded by gains in energy, technology, consumer cyclicals and capital goods. Volumes totaled 4.10 billion on the New York Stock Exchange and 2.01 billion on the Nasdaq. Advancers were outpacing decliners 2.8-to-1 on the Big Board and 2.6-to-1 on the Nasdaq. As expected Tuesday, the National Association of Home Builders said its Housing Market Index showed that homebuilder confidence in December ticked up to 47, the highest since April 2006. The December number was up 2 points from a slightly downwardly revised November reading. Michael PeQueen, managing director and partner at HighTower, said that while he is closely watching several fundamental improvements in the U.S. economy such as the nascent housing recovery and recent employment gains, the single biggest driver of risk appetite in 2013 will be the extraordinarily accommodative monetary policy of global central banks. PeQueen pointed to the Federal Reserve engaging in "QE infinity"; the European Central Bank giving ECB President Mario Draghi the votes to lower rates; and Japan electing with a super-majority the Liberal Democratic Party that campaigned on a policy of aggressively expanding the monetary base to fight deflation. "The world will continue to be awash in a sea of liquidity and the rising tide will continue to lift all boats. As a result, we are constructive on stocks worldwide, with an eye on emerging markets," PeQueen said. "At the same time, we continue to shorten the duration of our bond portfolios after having feasted on above-average returns for the past several years." The Commerce Department reported Tuesday a third-quarter current account deficit of $107.5 billion, compared with a deficit of $118.1 billion in the second quarter, which was revised from $117.4 billion. Economists, on average, were expecting a third-quarter current account deficit of $103.4 billion. Gold for February delivery plunged $27.50 to settle at $1,670.70 an ounce at the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange, while February crude oil contracts tacked on 73 cents to close at $87.93 a barrel. The benchmark 10-year Treasury was down 14/32 to push the yield higher to 1.825%. The dollar was down 0.29%, according to the U.S. dollar index. In corporate news, Apple ( AAPL) was denied a request from a U.S. judge for a permanent injunction against Samsung's smartphones, Reuters reported. Apple shares were up 2.9 on Tuesday. Knight Capital Group's ( KCG) board was split between two competing buyout offers from suitors Getco and Virtu Financial, sources involved in the talks told Reuters. By late Monday, Knight hadn't reached a decision on which offer to accept. But a deal of some kind for the market-maker increasingly was looking more likely than not, the sources said. Knight Capital shares climbed 2.2%. Jefferies ( JEF) on Tuesday posted fourth-quarter earnings of 35 cents a share on revenue of $769 million; analysts were calling for earnings of 32 cents a share on revenue of $722.6 million. The firm's investment banking revenue rose 8% and fixed-income revenue more than doubled to $293 million. Shares rose 3.1%. Arbitron ( ARB) shares soared 24% as the media and marketing information services firm entered a deal to be bought by global information and measurement company Nielsen ( NLSN ) for $48 a share in cash, which represents a premium of about 26% to Arbitron's closing price on Monday. Shares of Nielsen jumped 4.4%. Sirius XM Radio ( SIRI) shares added 1.4% as the stock was initiated with a "buy" at Goldman Sachs. Xyratex ( XRTX) shares popped 2.8% after the data storage technology provider declared a special cash dividend of $2 a share that will be distributed on Dec. 31. Shares of firearm stocks were tumbling, with Smith & Wesson ( SWHC) down 10% on Tuesday and Sturm, Ruger & Co. ( RGR) down 7.7%. The declines follow the tragic school massacre in Newtown, Conn., and after private-equity firm Cerberus' decision to sell gunmaker Freedom Group, which makes a type of a firearm that is suspected to have been used in the shootings. Oracle ( ORCL), the software giant, reported adjusted fiscal second-quarter earnings a share of 64 cents on $9.09 billion in revenue. Analysts had expected 61 cents a share on revenue of $9.03 billion. Shares were trading up 1.4% in after-hours trading. -- Written by Andrea Tse and Joe Deaux in New York. >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Andrea Tse. Follow @Commodity_Bull

Here's what Marion noticed in this talk that you can take away:
Those all sound like an eloquent woman to me. Thanks to Marion for sharing another good video example of a powerful woman speaker. What did you see in this talk that you can use in your next speech?
- You can perform on a stage with nothing else but your presence, yourself, no technology.
- You can rely on stories and myths to give flesh to your talk.

They're Americans. Their whole paradigm is that they don't think about what's right or wrong, they do what they need to do to protect their country.
Besides... so long as the BETA don't break through, there's no problem. And if the BETA do break through... nothing like that surprise to really give them the finger.
And ironically, the US bought Alaska from the Russians. Now they're leasing it to them, lol.

Such behavior sets up delicious development for roits and anti-American movement. I would not like if somebody intended to bomb my territory and damaged it irreparably even if it were for "greater good".
In the end Americans will be backed to the wall with conflict from every direction.

All they just need is a chapter of Space Marines.
But seriously Alternative V looks like a complete pothead move on a level of hysteric housewife. The consequences are too dire. It is 100% dead end. How did they even justify it? I would except it from Russian "shoot first, think later".

In fact, all things considered, I'm of the opinion that the F-22 was a prudent choice, assholish as it may have been, because as Day After showed, it was absolutely necessary. Hell, don't forget the coup!
Yes, the YF-23 may have been better at fighting BETA, but the Americans, crazy prepared as they try to be, anticipated that at some point there would be TSFs fighting against each other and wanted that little edge.
Also, it's worth noting that the Americans didn't shoot first, but the French-Canadians.
tl;dr: Everyone had some form of anti-TSF combat planning or training going on; it was only that the Americans were bluntly honest enough - or just didn't give a fuck - in making a surface superiority TSF God Mode Sue, and were able to field it in decent numbers (several battalions) compared to, say, the Shiranui, which mostly went to aces.
Again, as I've said before, it's kinda an American mindset. To quote a song I heard once, "You don't care about what's right or what's wrong, you do what you gotta do to defend your own."

That is to say, it's not so much that they're more interested in fighting BETA, as it is that they're taking into consideration both the need to fight the BETA now as well as the possibility of the threat of other humans once the BETA are gone, and the YF-22 fit both these requirements while the YF-23 went a bit off the rails in trying to do too many new things.
If I remember correctly the US Marines do still pull their weight with frequent anti-BETA ops in the European/Taiwan areas alongside Euro/Warsaw/Soviet etc. forces, so it's not as though they're just sitting back and letting everyone else do the work with their exported TSFs.

Oh, I completely agree - I was just pointing out that for all the claims of "DURR HURR US ARE BAD GUYS", the Americans are being quite pragmatic. Note that most of the Americans encountered in the game tend to be upstanding, decent people, particularly Al Walker, who shits freedom and bald eagles.
Also, the US is incredibly involved all over the world, it's just that there's so much BETA, what good they can do is quickly swallowed up. Heck, look at TE ep 2: Kyoto is falling, the final defensive line is broken, the IJN is resorting to naval gunfire missions danger close, practically on top of the few Japanese forces that aren't eaten up, the situation is obviously hopeless... and then the Theodore Roosevelt launches her Tomcats to do whatever they can, because they're allies, and that's what allies do.
"Their devotion to duty is admirable," murmurs the IJN Admiral, even though he knows it's all pointless.
All things considered, as a whole, Muv-Luv has one of the kinder portrayals of Americans: pragmatists who will shoot the dog if they have to - but at the same time, decent people who try their best to do the right thing.

I have always been of the opinion that the F-22 development was planned in relation to Alternative V having taken placed. They probably predicted that the aftermath would not make other nations that survived very happy neighbors. So they created their own ace in the hole. Whether as a deterrence or a show of force or both is possible.
I must also say that I do find the expense and space used on the TSF frame for stealth capabilities against other TSFs could have been better used on Anti-BETA detection / armor capacity.
I would assume that post MLA alternative IV, they would be heavily criticized for that policy.

I'M playin Michael Myers! And if them kids come around and see us dressed up in the same shit, it's going to ruin the whole effect! God damn it! What the hell is wrong with you?
[Michael remains still]
Freddie Harris: I said what are you looking at me like that for?
[tapping Michael's forehead]
Freddie Harris: Huh? You don't get it? You don't get it? Your shit up there ain't workin or something? Huh? You need to get you ass back in the garage with Nora! That's your job! Go back in there and help her ass out! Go do your job! I left the back door unlocked for your ass to go out the back and into the garage! That's what I did! You need to get the hell out of here!
[Michael's still motionless]
Freddie Harris: Go on! Skoot! Skadattle! Get the fuck out of Dodge!
[Michael finally walks away]
Freddie Harris: God damn it... what the hell does somebody gotta do to get a little decent help up in this mothafucka?
Freddie Harris: Looking a little crispy over there, Mikey. Like some chicken-fried motherfucker. Well, may he never, ever rest in peace.
Laurie Strode: You failed, Michael. Want to know why? Because I'm not afraid of you. But what about you? Are you afraid of me? Are you afraid to die, Michael?
Jim Morgan: You know, Donna, you got great legs. What time do they open?
[Donna gives him the finger]
Jim Morgan: That'd be one o'clock?
[trying to lure Michael away from Sara]
Rudy Grimes: Hey, Michael. Yeah, I'm talkin' to you. You want a piece of me?
Freddie Harris: Hey Mikey! Happy Fuckin' Halloween!
Freddie Harris: [fighting Michael] Let's see what you got!
Bill: You know, I think it happened when she was right there. Poor little Judith. Helpless, brushing her hair, young and naked.
Jenna Danzig: Yeah. 'Cause that's gonna happen, right?
Bill: Come on, Jen. One flash and you could light up a thousand computer screens. Launch your whole career.
Rudy Grimes: You want some of this? Huh? You want to try and fucking kill me? Huh? You like sushi, motherfucka?
Donna Chang: Cameras are so... phallic.
Jim Morgan: Is that good or bad?
Donna Chang: Depends who's watching.
Sara: Rudy, do you ever think about anything other than food?
Rudy Grimes: Wouldn't you like to know?
Freddie Harris: Fear is good. Fear is what gives us the feeling of being alive.
Sara: Fear makes me want to throw up.
Laurie Strode: I knew you'd come for me sooner or later. What took you so long?
Rudy Grimes: Don't distract me.
Jenna Danzig: Oh, I can't help myself. I am distracting.
Rudy Grimes: Never underestimate the effect of a poor diet. Too much protein, not enough zinc. Next thing you know, you're cutting up bodies in the bathtub. I mean, look at Hitler. He was a vegetarian. The brother was seriously malnourished.
Jim Morgan: Say something smart.
Donna Chang: Existence precedes essence.
Jim Morgan: God, you're sexy.
Nurse Phillips: Why is this patient in lockdown?
Nurse Wells: They didn't tell you about Laurie Strode?
Nurse Phillips: No.
Nurse Wells: You must have heard of her. Sister of Michael Myers?
Nurse Phillips: Michael Myers, the serial killer?
Nurse Wells: Oh, well, you all hear the gossip soon enough. For now, let's just get...
Nurse Phillips: No, no, no, wait. Tell me about her.
Nurse Wells: She decapitated a man.
Nurse Phillips: Oh, my God. Why?
Nurse Wells: Halloween. 3 years ago. 20 years after the first murders, her brother finally found her. Tracked her down at the school where she was working. There were several murders. Lots of confusion.
Nurse Phillips: Oh, my God. She killed the wrong person.
Nurse Wells: Father of 3.
Nurse Phillips: Well, why didn't the paramedic say something?
Nurse Wells: His larynx had been crushed. Don't let on you know.
[about Myers' bed]
Jenna Danzig: This must be where the demon was conceived.
Jenna Danzig: You are, like, this close to getting voted off the island.
[Smacks Bill]
Laurie Strode: Are you afraid of me, Michael?
Sara: Look, every time I let you two talk me into something I live to regret it.
Rudy Grimes: Listen, without me you would die of boredom.
Jenna Danzig: Us! Without us you would die of boredom.
Rudy Grimes: Whatever.
Aron: Don't do it. That's the house where it all started. He walked it's hallways. Hide in it's closets. Dreamed in it's bedrooms. Helped his Mother in the kitchen. Watched TV in the living room with his Dad. Played in his Sisters bedroom. Then one day he picked up a knife and he never put it down again.
Sara: I don't want to be famous.
Freddie Harris: What do you mean you don't want to be famous? That's the American dream!
Sara: Aren't we supposed to be looking for answers?
Jim Morgan: All right, the devil made him do it. I'm done.
Freddie Harris: You hit me like I murdered your fucking Mother or something!
Jim Morgan: She must be going for the first Internet Emmy.
Freddie Harris: Michael Myers is a killer shark. In baggy ass overalls who gets his kicks from killing everyone and everything he comes across.
[first lines]
Laurie Strode: You've heard of the tunnel. The one we all go through sooner or later. At the end, there's a door. And waiting for you on the other side of that door is either Heaven or Hell. This is that door.
Laurie Strode: [to Michael as she dies] I'll see you in Hell!
Donna Chang: I'm interested in how Michael Myers embodies the politics of violence embedded in pop mythology.
Freddie Harris: [while watching TV] Kick his ass! Kick his ass! Kick his ass! Who's better than Wat Chun Lee? Whoopin' everybody ass while he's smokin' a cigarette.
[knock on the door]
Freddie Harris: Oh, shit. Who's knockin' on my door this late? Whoever this is, is distracting me from seeing Wat Chun Lee whoop some ass.

Peptimmune announces first patient dosed in a phase Ib study of PI-2301 in multiple sclerosis patients in one of the most comprehensive studies of the pharmacologic effects of an immunomodulatory compound in autoimmune disease.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – June 17, 2008. Peptimmune, Inc. a privately held biotechnology company, announced that physicians have treated the first participant in a clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PI-2301 in subjects with Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (SP-MS). PI-2301 is a novel peptide copolymer for the treatment of multiple sclerosis and other autoimmune diseases.
The Phase Ib multiple-ascending dose, double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized study will involve up to fifty-three subjects with SP-MS who will receive the drug once weekly in four escalating-dose cohorts. Following establishment of safety at potentially therapeutic doses and proof of pharmacologic mechanism, the Company plans to initiate its Phase II study in multiple sclerosis patients in early 2009. "While the primary goal of this study is to demonstrate safety of PI-2301 in multiple sclerosis patients, we believe that this clinical trial is one of the most comprehensive looks at the pharmacologic effects of any immunomodulator in patients suffering from autoimmune diseases," stated Thomas P. Mathers, President and CEO of Peptimmune. Mr. Mathers will be presenting an overview of the PI-2301 clinical program at the BIO 2008 Business Forum, Wednesday, June 18th, at 9:00 a.m. PST at the San Diego Convention Center, Room 2.
PI-2301 is a second-generation peptide copolymer from a similar compound class as Copaxone® (Teva Pharmaceuticals). PI-2301 works through immune modulation by enhancing the regulatory response of the immune system and thereby controlling the pathogenic autoimmune response observed in some diseases. In a Phase I single ascending dose, double blind placebo controlled randomized study, all doses of PI-2301 were safe and well tolerated, and no serious adverse events were observed. Pharmacodynamic assays demonstrated evidence of immune exposure consistent with the pharmacologic mechanism of action for PI-2301, and dose-dependent pharmacokinetics was observed. PI-2301 has been optimized using Peptimmune's novel platform peptide chemistry and, in preclinical studies, has shown to be more potent and effective than Copaxone in treating disease models for multiple sclerosis. PI-2301 has also shown efficacy in preclinical models of autoimmune diseases where immune modulation may be effective, such as Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and autoimmune uveitis. Peptimmune has put in place high-quality synthesis and analytical methods that provide a superior level of batch-to-batch reproducibility in the manufacturing of PI-2301.
Over 400,000 Americans have multiple sclerosis (MS), and MS may affect over 2.5 million individuals worldwide. MS is an autoimmune disease in which the individuals' immune system responds against multiple components of nerve-insulating myelin. The effects of these immune-mediated attacks can range from relatively benign to somewhat disabling to devastating, as communication between the brain and other parts of the body is disrupted.
About Peptimmune
Peptimmune, Inc. is a privately held clinical stage biotechnology company focused on the development of peptide therapies to improve the management of chronic autoimmune and inflammatory disorders. The Company is in clinical development with second-generation therapeutics that are expected to result in safer and more effective products for multiple sclerosis and pemphigus vulgaris. Current investors include New Enterprise Associates, MPM Capital, Hunt Ventures, Boston Medical Investors, Silicon Valley Bank Capital, and Genzyme Corporation.

text: Was talking to DH tonight and was telling him that if I can get my pain under control and back to work regularly and start making some decent commission again that I want to use the money to buy a good used embroidery machine. DH said that if we get the credit cards paid of that he will buy me the best embroidery on the market. I think I hear the Bernina 830e calling my name. He also said maybe a long arm quilter instead. Is there a gammilll in my future with all the extras??? Now I'm going to be killing myself to get back to work regularly. I started a course of steroids yesterday to try and help get the pain undercontrol. Fibromyalgia sucks. I also have to see a Rheumatologist as soon as possible as my pain management Dr thinks that I have that also. I want one of those new toys so bad. Wish me luck.

I had the honor of presenting the Developers at the Portland PASS chapter, and decided to go a different way than just using PowerPoint Slides…. (click on any picture to enlarge)
The point is that when you need to get a point across, it's OK to change tactics to make sure the information sticks. In this case, I decided to make the audience the PowerPoint. I used a few props to show the various paradigms we use to describe what the industry uses for the word "cloud"
First, we talked about Infrastructure as a Service. I picked a gentleman who didn't quite fit the hard hat and safety vest I picked out for him. Notice our "user" as she accesses our "Server" (complete with tray and glass) which has been virtualized.
Software as a service comes next. In this case, the user and potentially even customers just access software (represented here as a Windows ME box…) remotely – everything is virtualized.
Finally, Platform as a Service – Yup, Platform shoes as a necklace, and a tie-dye shirt to represent the 70's – a decade when mainframes used stateless programming as well. Notice also the components of Windows Azure – Compute (Keyboard) Application Fabric (Toy Bus) and Storage (Bucket).
And at the end of the day, it's all about serving those customers…

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Herbalife HLF, +0.92% shares fell up to 7% Thursday morning as Bill Ackman of hedge fund Pershing Square presented his short thesis on the company at the Sohn Conference Foundation event in New York that was webcast. "It's a very complicated scheme," Ackman said early in his presentation before handing it off to one of his analysts who's spent the past year studying Herbalife's business model. In a statement Wednesday afternoon, Herbalife CEO Michael Johnson denied his company's business model is a pyramid scheme. He called the allegation "bogus." Johnson said he's asked the Securities and Exchange Commission to investigate an "extraordinary number" of put options on its stock set to expire this Friday. Put options are bets against a stock rising in value. In recent trades, Herbalife shares were down 4% at $35.82. Shares are down 31% for the year.
