Posted on 04/11/2010 4:13:41 AM PDT by expat_panama
Sometimes you have to take out your political lenses and look at the actual statistics to get a true picture of the health of the American economy. Right now, those statistics are saying a modest cyclical rebound following a very deep downturn could actually be turning into a full-fledged, V-shaped, recovery boom between now and year-end.
I'm aiming this thought especially at many of my conservative friends who seem to be trashing the improving economic outlook -- largely, it would appear, to discredit the Obama administration.
Don't do it folks. It's a mistake. The numbers are the numbers. And prosperity is a welcome development for a nation that has suffered mightily.
Credibility is at issue here. Conservative credibility. Capitalist credibility.
Now, I have written extensively about the tax-and-regulatory threats of the Obamanomics big-government assault. But most of that is in the future. The current reality is that a strong rebound in corporate profits (the greatest and truest stimulus of all), ultra-easy money from the Fed, and some small stimuli from government spending are working to generate a stronger-than-expected recovery in a basically free-market economy that is a lot more resilient than capitalist critics think.
Rather than blow their credibility over a cyclical rebound that is backed by the statistics, free-market conservatives should tell it like it is.
Let's begin with the March employment numbers recently released by the Labor Department. Those numbers were solid. People say small businesses are getting killed by taxes and regulations from Washington, but the reality is that the small-business household employment survey has produced 1.1 million new jobs in the first quarter of 2010, or 371,000 per month. If that continues, the unemployment rate will drop significantly.
Additionally, the corporate payroll number for March increased by 224,000 -- not 162,000 as some claim -- with the prior two months being revised up by 62,000. And this is being led by private-sector job creation.
And according to just-released data, retail chain-store sales for the year ending in March were up a blowout 10 percent. Ten percent. That's a V-shaped recovery. And the real-time ISM purchasing-managers reports for manufacturing and services indicate that the economy in the next few quarters could be much, much stronger than the consensus expects -- maybe 5 to 6 percent. Another V-shaped recovery.
Commodity charts, meanwhile, are roaring. All manner of raw industrial materials have been booming -- iron ore, steel, you name it. More V-shaped recovery. So with higher commodity prices running virtually across-the-board, there is every incentive for rapid inventory-rebuilding. (Inventory prices are going up as commodity prices go up.)
At this point it's impossible to project a long-lived economic boom, such as we had following the deep recession of the early 1980s. For one thing, tax rates will rise in 2011 for successful earners and investors, quite unlike the Reagan cuts of the 1980s. So it's possible that entrepreneurs and investors are bringing income, activity, and investment forward into 2010 in order to beat the tax man in 2011. This would artificially boost this year's economy, stealing from next year's economy.
Recall that when Hillary Clinton took her Rose Law Firm bonus in December 1992, rather than January 1993, she knew full well that her husband Bill would raise the top tax rate in 1993. So the fourth quarter of 1992 grew at nearly 4.5 percent, but the first quarter of 1993 saw less than 1 percent growth. The temporary growth spurt for all of 1992 was 4.3 percent, but activity dropped to 2.7 percent the following year.
It could happen again in 2010 and 2011. Although the Obamacons deny it, tax-rate incentives matter a lot.
And at some point, monetary policy will tighten, with higher interest rates on top of higher tax rates. That, too, could slow growth markedly next year. And then there's the dozen tax hikes in the Obamacare health takeover, and a possible VAT attack from Paul Volcker, all of which will work against growth in the out-years.
Clearly, we are not operating a supply-side, free-market model today. What I wish for is sound money and lower tax rates, which would promote sustainable economic growth. Instead, we're getting easier money and higher tax rates, which could mean a temporary boom today and disappointingly slow growth after that.
But then again, who knows? Maybe the tea-party revolution overturns the obstacles to future growth and the boom is sustained. Free-market populism and a return to Reaganism, along with an anti-federal-spending coalition that is the most powerful force in politics today, could right the economic ship.
That's the credible take.
--except we need to remember that our goal is truth and reality, and not some vain effort to convince those who're delusional by choice.
larry is a moron. He's the type of person that gives capitalist a bad name. If you're a believer of capitalism, theres no way you could believe any of the current policies can lead to prosperity. Capitalism is a economic philosophy. You either believe it or you don't.
Let's begin with the March employment numbers recently released by the Labor Department. Those numbers were solid. People say small businesses are getting killed by taxes and regulations from Washington, but the reality is thatthe small-business household employment survey has produced 1.1 million new jobs in the first quarter of 2010, or 371,000 per month. If that continues, the unemployment rate will drop significantly.<./b>
THIS number from the BLS is completely made up. It is the BLS best GUESS. There is NO way to accurately measure this number. What Larry is arguing is "trust the Government". Sorry we know better. Given Obama's regimes past history of inflating the initial numbers then quietly adjusting them downward later in the month, it is utterly foolish to take any of their numbers at face value.
The great zero is claiming his policies are causing the improvement, such as it is.
His policies, in reality, are going to tank the economy in a big way. We've got to look past the end of our noses and see what's coming if we allow the great zero and congress to persist in their economic folly.
Central economic planner do not work. Government can certainly mark alot of problems by printing ALOT of money which gives illussion of prosperity. Apparently Larry rather the illusion that reality. As long as Maddoff is conning ppl and they still believing they're geting insane return, then all is fine. To Larry, the problem are ppl who's trying to tell ppl Maddoff is not a conman. He rather live in the illusion
Of one other thing to ask Larry. Considering the billions of dollars being written down by corporations right now to pay for Obamacare, just how long does he think this "v shaped recovery" going to last?
True, and the point here is that we've got to be honest enough to see our noses first.
"my conservative friends who seem to be trashing the improving economic outlook — largely, it would appear, to discredit the Obama administration."
I heard him say this on his radio show last week. Quite frankly, it didn't pass the sniff test or have the ring of truth then, and it doesn't now, either.
great pic and very apt. You'll be sent to room 101 for that thoughtcrime.
is that why so many businesses are closing, almost weekly, because we are headed to recovery?
I don't know who this moron is, but he sure isn't much of an economist. Obama butt bot is more appropriate.
Why do these creeps always come out of the wood work ...
By asking how long it will last, you're saying it exists. That's good.
What about default? If we can't avoid default then it doesn't matter what the shape of the recovery is right now.
its time to buy rice, ammo and toilet paper... Svckers rally... Yes, that's a 'v' in suckers ;)
I see reading comprehensive is not one of your strengths. Try reading it again.
The slope of the right side is near flat. There is an upward trend but the slope value is small.
It is similar to a hockystick, not a v. :}
Every one goes off the rails from time to time. Writing delusional pieces is the way it happens. Most regimes send the media to the gulags to purify the species. Maybe this is how they try and avoid the the enviableness.
As the lies pile up, I read only the real data and reports, draw my own conclusions. It's far easier to spot the lies that way. The books they are a cooking, and eventually the truth is not able to be hidden anymore.
yes, I know who Kudlow is ... And ignore him for the most part. Handing out fiat money to free loaders does not a sustainable economy make -— All the two bit tin pots who have gone before, have proved that point. And a short real video from Venezuela today, would show you in a few short minutes slavery still hasn't been perfected.
Ah. So if you're throwing away all your worthless Federal Reserve Notes, please let me know and I'll come over and haul away your trash for you.
Who's numbers? Cooked Books anyone? He must be limiting his reading sources. Last I looked, the Republics of Kalefornia and New Yuk are about to collapse. Since either is greater in size than most of the European Socialist Combined; America, I think we have a problem.
Yes, it is Larry. And, this is the form of capitalism that has ruined our country. Look at the now and make your money and to hell with the long term outlook!
Capitalism, like socialism loses its credibility when it espouses taking profit in the short term to the detriment of the long term.
Giving Obama and credit for this small spike is absurd. I STILL don't know what the market is growing on.
If it is to be a "V" it will be a peculiar one. This "V" already has a wide flat bottom, if bottom it be.
I have written extensively about the tax-and-regulatory threats of the Obamanomics big-government assault. But most of that is in the future.
But, Larry, business makes decisions about expansion based on perceptions of the future business climate. It's clear that, if Obama's policies are implemented, the climate will be dismal.
Apart from health care uncertainty, there's the specter of CO2 caps that the EPA is implementing very soon as well as quickly rising energy prices with no opportunity to drill in the US.
The economy will undoubtedly improve somewhat, but business is not going to spend any capital on expansion. Economic growth is synonymous with capital accumulation -- we're consuming capital; not accumulating it.
The recovery may, indeed, be "v-shaped", but it will be a distinctly lower-case "v".
In my opinion the markets are exactly like a slot-machine with a progressive jack pot. The number (DOW) keeps going up. but eventually someone is going to pull the lever and cash out...... everyone else will be left feeding the machine.
I can't see anything that put the markets to increase... jobs continue to be lossed, spending continues to increase, taxes continue to increase, and companies continue to release reports they will take healthcare hits in the tens of millions, hundreds of millions, and even billions of dollars...... this just spells more layoffs, downsizing of industry (or moving offshore), followed by a shrinking tax base. It seems like we're just circling the bowl, but they can't quite plunge us down (I apologize for that visual).
The only thing I could see making a "V" is money. Deflation as more people stop buying and prices drop...... followed by a hyperinflationary lift off as funny money hits the system and the interest rates rise because our creditor masters want better return on their money.
Kudlow always is a sunny optimist when it comes to the economy. Nothing new about that. He is what he is.
Of course he is wrong about a recovery. Once the Bush tax cuts expire and taxes go up because of ObamaCare then the economy will tank hard.
....I want to see solid corporate earnings before I'm convinced.
I think he is not discerning between a "sustaining" economy and a "roaring" economy. We saw a somewhat "roaring" or at least well-engaged economy during most of the Bush tenure. Housing prices up and unemployment way down. In fact 4% unemployment is considered "full-employment", the theory being there are always 4% of workers, moving and looking for work or quitting for personal reasons. In other words, in 2005/06, if you didn't have a job, you probably didn't want a job.
Not so, now. People are being laid off and the remaining workers are doing 2 and 3 people's jobs. As a result, efficiency, and therefore productivity is up and this leads to the stock market going up. But this is a sustaining economy ... people are buying only what they need. Extras and luxuries are generally not being purchased. So Kudlow sees commodities going up. Right, i.e., basics to the economy.
But this will not lead to increased employment. Higher taxes, even by his own words will put the brakes on any small recovery.
Here is a small example from the current news. Nicolas Cage put his island mansion up for sale for 35 million and got no offers whatsoever. Would this have happened back in 2006? I don't think so.
I believe conservative principles are always right. Any economy has variables and ups and downs. But in the long run, if you want to increase employment, lower taxes. Lower interest rates. Reduce regulations. Reduce entitlemnents and welfare. When you do this, just about everyone is looking for a job and the economy picks up. It's not hard to know what to do, just hard for Democrats to do it.
not to mention most state governments in the red, California is toast... It appears the very worst is still yet to come. I hope it turns around but our money is worthless paper backed only by debt and false promises.
We need to remember to make the good better. All this toxic depression is for losers.
Larry must have had some really good mushrooms on his pizza last night.
Why is it so hard to comprehend that the ONLY thing that is producing these outward (and temporary) signs of "recovery" is MASSIVE and unsustainable spending of money we don't have and will never be able to repay, by our criminal federal government?
phhhhllllltttt — You can talk yourself into anything ... That doesn't make it true. The people I know have and had real businesses.
One friend down the street shuttered his decades long company employing 700 people because the turnaround is just ahead.
Another fellow has put his plumbing company on sustained life support in the last few weeks. He did new home construction. Said the market had washed out for new homes. Turnaround ahead.
The car dealer friend has closed and sold off his lot ... Because the turnaround is just ahead.
Turnaround just ahead — Printing money is a fools game to play for ignorant people's votes. Like South America where there is no middle class, only wealthy and the underclass, like Kenya.
Nothing will change until we get rid of the Marxist debris infecting our government. Regardless what Kudlow or the rest have to say.
Good article Larry. Yes we are headed on the road to ruin. No that doesn't mean there are no hills on the road. Pretending there aren't makes people look as self-delusional as the obamabots. And absolutely true, if we get a clean sweep in November key points could change.
The American public has been lied to for so very long that they believe the state run media and they no longer think, in fact, it appears they cannot think independently.
What is obvious to you and me is unthinkable to the American public. Obama is a radical who is destroying America and he will continue until he is stopped.
I hope you, and Mr Kudlow are right. I am one of those people in the job market right now. I am trying to relocate to GA to be with my wife and kids.
However, I just do not see how a regime that has done every single thing, it could do economically, wrong still manages to produce a V shaped recovery.
WTF? How do you call running up trillions of dollars of unfunded liabilities and debt conducive to economic recovery? The dirty little secret in all this is that by the end of this year taxation will be greatly ramped up on the investing class and all they are doing at this point is trying to maximize profits before selling off before the storm.
Yes, some 'economist' may being there is a very important election in November. Spring time always add jobs. Will Summer, Fall and Winter follow Kudlow's trend? Not with narrow 'tax credits' being the incentive.
Alot of money is being made in the market.
Don't let your politics keep you out.
Obama sucks but the American economy is recovering.
what is he smoking?
All that is happening is money tinkering. Nothing fundamental is improving. Government is still becoming more invasive, taxes are increasing, energy and mineral production are still being handcuffed, and market forces are increasingly being hampered by central control. The model for this economy is Japan, which also saw teasing semblances of recovery, only to be disappointed with continuous malaise. Is the US any more special that it deserves some magical dispensation from economic law?
Besides being a market cheerleader, Kudlow also is a grating blowhard. His style makes me change the channel.
'The numbers are the numbers'
And millions are still unemployed and 400,000 a month still losing jobs. Government is doing great.
Average Joe's, not so much. the numbers are the numbers....
While America was down on bended knee, Obama kicked her and raped her.
Actually, if you go to Yahoo Finance and click on the economic indicators data link you'll find about 10 different data measurements that show an improving economy.
Now..tell me about VOLUME and who's making it...it aint us!
(Pssst...HINT: GS... do youre own DD)
Of course, the business cycle is pulling indicators up. That is what occurs naturally as panic subsides and people with money begin opening their wallets, and as the federal government force feeds borrowed money into the system. It happens with even the cruddiest economies. So what, though? Individual spendthrifts go on spending binges again once a new source of borrowed money is given to them, too. That masks the underlying problem, not cure it. I listed the megatrends that are killing this country, and all Obama has done is to exacerbate them.
The business climate in this country is not healthy and getting worse. A little zig upwards from the bottom doesn't change the deteriorating fundamentals.

Mammals and birds have long been avoiding the proximity of power lines, leaving scientists perplexed as to why animals would consistently avoid a seemingly passive structure, that was neither an impenetrable physical barrier nor associated with human traffic. A new study, published in Conservation Biology and funded by the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council and the Norwegian reindeer administration, might have found the answer. Christian Nellemann, from GRID-Arendal´s Polar and Cryosphere Division, co-authored this study.
It has long been assumed that reindeer´s avoidance of power lines in the tundra was due to their reluctance to make themselves vulnerable to predators by crossing the clear cuts made in the forest to accommodate the pylons. But why the Arctic populations, living in tree-free regions, would develop the same habit of staying clear of power lines was difficult to explain. A question made even more mysterious by the persistency of this behavior decades after the lines had been installed and significant human activity had ceased in the region.
The answer, this study finds, lies in the UV light that is emitted by power cables. Along high power lines, electric charges can build up in the cable and then be released into the air, generating a flash or corona of UV light; a well-known fact among power companies, who are partly addressing the issue in order to limit power leakage, but not enough to prevent the phenomenon all together.
UV light is invisible to the human eye, but most mammals can see it, as was revealed by a recent study. The reindeer´s highly sensitive vision, especially during the dark winter months, makes these flashes and corona appear particularly bright, which, together with the unpredictable pattern of flashes, makes it all the more hard for the animals to get accustomed to the phenomenon.
As a result, power lines, which run very long distances, can interfere with migration routes, breeding grounds and grazing for both mammals and birds, and contribute to loss and fragmentation of habitat, which constitutes the primary threat to biodiversity worldwide.
More on this study on webpages of The Guardian, The Independent, The Telegraph and the BBC.

To add to this it would have been incongruous for a Madara ET resurrected at a Youthful age to contain memories of events which took place AFTER that age, if there had been a One to One DNA Correlation.
In other words, if it were the age of sampling of DNA from the Living Madara that the DNA sample was derived from that determines the EdoTensei Madara's age at resurrection, then that same DNA sample should have logically locked in only Memories predating or equaling the day that the sample was initially taken from the living Zombie, and excluding memories of events subsequent to that date.

I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
From the looks of it, the DNA in ET seems to be used in order to anchor the soul to the new host body. The information from the DNA sample are probably then used to reconstruct the body and then the information from the SOUL are used to reconstruct the mind. Theoretically speaking, the DNA should potentially hold information about the amount of lifespan that the living organism has, as well it's current situation, but currently we are unable to access those data, of course assuming that those theories are correct (this theory is often used in sci-fi/future settings, mostly in order to determine the most likely amount of life span that a new born baby has).

best bag ever?
"I purchased this bag almost exactly 2 years ago and haven't switched out purses since. I love that it has the cross-body strap option and it is large enough to fit a binder, ipad, and various other work essentials all at once. It has held up exceptionally well as I use it every day and pack it to the gills frequently.Only downside (and I don't even care)- the chain strap does make some noise. My husband hates that, but I don't even notice. I love this bag so much I am going to purchase another color!"

Lady Spartans advance in 3-A play-offs
Against the Uintah Utes last Saturday night, the Emery High Lady Spartans did what they had to do and won their opening round play-off game 61-34.
Emery Coach Steven Gordon after the game, "We needed to stop fouling them in the first half. We were a little slow on defense and I told them that at the half. We also were getting beat on the boards."
Emery could sense the game was over soon after it started as Uintah appeared to be over matched and proceeded to take care of business. Emery won the opening quarter 14-5 as ShiAnne Allred shot the ball well and scored seven points to lead the team.
In the second quarter, Emery took a 20-6 lead and then free throws kept Uintah close as they made 11 of 16 in the first half and actually outscored Emery 12-10 over the last 6:28 of the half.
Emery started the third quarter on a 9-0 run and won the period 22-4 to lead after three quarters 52-22. Frankie Komar hit three straight 3-point shots and scored 11 points in the period to pace the team's offensive effort. Jodi Robertson added a pair of threes as the Spartans romped.
In the final period, Emery's JV team wrapped up the ball game and the Spartans now advance to a Thursday game at the E Center in West Valley against Morgan High School at 7:30 p.m.
Frankie Komar finished the game with 16 points, four assists, two steals and two rebounds. Also in double figures for the team was ShiAnne Allred with 10 points. ShiAnne also had four steals and two rebounds as the senior had a solid ball game.
Abbie Kay finished with nine points but had to sit a lot of the first half after she picked up her third personal foul early on. Abbie also had a steal and three blocked shots.
Tiffany Tuttle shot the ball well as she came off the bench and played valuable minutes. Tiffany scored eight points, had two steals, one blocked shot and one rebound.
Jodi Robertson and Taylor Mann each scored six points in the game. Besides scoring, Jodi also defends the opponents best offensive player. Jodi also had three assists, three steals and four rebounds. Taylor is the tallest Emery player and shoots the ball well inside with a good touch. Taylor had four rebounds in the game.
Jessica Murray and Tayler Jewkes each scored three points in the game. Jessica is a sophomore starter and shoots well from outside. Jessica had four assists in the game, three steals and three rebounds. Tayler hit a 3-pointer to close out the game.
Emery had 24 field goals in the game and held Uintah to only eight field goals. Emery was three for five at the free throw line while Uintah finished 14 for 24. Abbie shot all of Emery's free throws.
Coach Gordon looking ahead, "We need to play one game at a time but I feel that we can play with anybody. We should be OK next week if we just do what we have been doing."

LETTERS From Louis Lawrence, Niton:
IN view of the process in which local authorities under the Localism Act, 2011, can bid for the assets of other local authorities, it would be appropriate to remind the IW Council most, if not all, of the assets it is selling or requiring town and parish councils to bid for, were originally the property of those towns and parishes and were, at the time of unitarisation, 'expropriated' from the community.
I am hoping the consciences of councillors, soon to be seeking re-election, will prompt them to advise their leaders the proper course of action in all these cases is to return the property they acquired in the transition and which they now cannot find the funds to support.
To seek to charge local councils for the privilege of buying back the property they originally owned is tantamount to ransom.
Public conveniences, libraries, halls, gardens, theatres, car parks, playing fields, school buildings, beaches, with those which were charitably provided, were all taken over by the IW Council without a by-your-leave or compensation, though under a former administration. The IW Council could do the honest thing and give it all back.
Most local councils would have to charge on their own precept to pay for these items, so the county could get away with what I would call highway robbery and the taxpayer foots yet another bill!

Remember a few weeks ago when activists dive-bombed the Versace facebook page demanding they stop the sandblasting process of their jeans, and they responded ever-so-gracefully by closing down their facebook wall? Well, it looks like the people have won.
"Italian fashion house bans sandblasting, a dangerous practice used to give jeans a 'worn' look, after 1,200 people called for action on Change.org. The Italian fashion house Gianni Versace has committed to ban the dangerous practice of sandblasting jeans, a technique used to give jeans a used look which is highly dangerous to workers.
The news follows a two-month international campaign by the Clean Clothes Campaign on Change.org, the world's fastest-growing social action platform. More than 1,200 people from all over the world joined the campaign.
Sandblasting is a process by which workers fire sand under high pressure at jeans. It has been known to kill workers in garment producing countries like Turkey and Bangladesh, where jean sandblasting is done manually. The large amounts of silica dust generated during sandblasting can cause silicosis, a potentially lethal pulmonary disease, as workers inhale tiny particles of silica.
Following pressure from over 1,200 activists, Versace conducted a review of its clothing suppliers and announced that, effective immediately, suppliers would be banned from using sandblasting.
"Following more recent CCC's comments on Versace's practices, the company decided to study the issue in depth again and concluded, in agreement with CCC, that it is appropriate to take a proactive stance, and stand against the practice of sandblasting," said Versace's Tomaso Galli in a letter to Change.org. "Versace has specifically asked every supplier (and will ask any new supplier as a condition to work with Versace) to certify that they are not using sandblasting."
Galli said that any supplier found to be employing sandblasting as a production technique "will be considered in breach of contract and dismissed accordingly."
"What has happened here is incredible," said Meredith Slater, an organizer with Change.org. "Versace customers called on the company to ban a practice that endangered workers, and the company responded by saying that it would not only ban the practice, but stand up for the elimination of sandblasting throughout the industry."
Versace joins Gucci, H&M and C&A in taking a stance against sandblasting and encouraging other jean producers to do the same. The Clean Clothes Campaign has now set its sights on the high-end brands Dolce & Gabbana and Armani, both of which still refuse to engage in dialogue about their brands' sandblasting practices."
In a word, awesome.

Italian luxury label Versace closed their facebook wall after a group of activists led by the Clean Clothes Campaign "ask" the label to stop using sandblasting techniques to distress their denim. And by "ask", we mean post non-stop messages demanding the brand to stop. Sandblasting involves the firing of sand under high pressure at denim to give it a distressed look, and while the end result may look cool, the process creates extremely dangerous conditions for workers. Many factories have seen injuries and death as a result of arriving at trendy distressed denim by way of this method. While the activism was "shut down" for the moment with the removal of the facebook wall, Versace made a potentially damaging mistake. Their cowardly refusal to answer to consumers could add intense fuel to the fire. Blogs and news blasts everywhere are calling them out on "running away" from the problem. This could (if we're lucky) inspire a a wave in safer production in top brands of the industry.

Elmo Town Clerk Delena Fish opened the meeting by informing the council that Mayor Daryl Wilcox has resigned as of July 12. The reason for the resignation was given as health problems. The first order of business then was to appoint an interim mayor until the replacement process can be completed. The council appointed Councilman Dennis Jones to act as mayor while the advertising and selection process proceeds.
Fish then read a letter from two Elmo residents stating their support for the construction of the new fire station/community center. They wanted to make known their vote for the original plans. Fish stated that this letter was the only one received and the comment period ended July 14.
Council person Betty Labrum informed the council that the cemetery grant has been extended for one year. "We are in need of a lot of volunteer hours to comply with the grant, and we are encouraging any town resident to call and volunteer their help," said Labrum. Another portion of the grant will be used to purchase a computer and program to enable more accurate record keeping and mapping of the cemeteries in and near Elmo.
Fish announced that originally four bids had been received for the jobs of meter reader, park, and cemetery caretaker. Following the closure of the bid acceptance period, several of the bids were withdrawn. The council opened the remaining bid for the park and cemetery job, and awarded the position to Cassie Lake. Lake was instructed to mow, water, fertilize, and spray weeds, for the remaining summer months.
Councilman Jones expressed the need for a more consistent watering program for those areas of town. Council person Labrum also stated the need for the council to begin thinking about the need for snow removal.
Council person Labrum also questioned the council whether the town has an ordinance concerning abandoned properties. She noted that a resident has recently moved from town and left no forwarding address. She stated that the property has hazardous wastes in buckets around the property. She also stated that there are numerous non-functional vehicles on the property. "This could be a real health hazard, not only the hazardous waste, but the probability of rodents," said Labrum. The council decided to try to contact the owners of the property before any further action is taken.
Fish explained to the council that a letter has been received from the Emery County Commissioners with the new agreement dealing with building inspections. This new agreement has been revised concerning the issue of responsibility. Councilman Jones urged all members of the council to read the document thoroughly before signing. It was noted, although, that the deadline for the return of the agreement to the commissioners is Aug. 2.
Fish informed the council that several years ago, the existing council signed an agreement with the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. This agreement stated that Elmo Town would pay the portion of the power bill for the DUP building that the town was responsible for. She said that the town has not received a bill since May of 2003. An itemized bill has been received from the DUP for the overage of the past two years in the amount of $1,057.97. The DUP has been paying the bill during those years, and has now billed the town for their portion.
The council entered into a lengthy discussion concerning the timely billing process, and this item has not been entered into the budget for this year. Councilman Kirt Rasmussen suggested paying the bill to the DUP, and enclosing a letter explaining the need for timely billing. The council approved this action.
With Elmo Horse and Buggy Days coming up, and the town is without a meter reader and maintenance person, the council decided to host town clean-up days to prepare Main Street for the parade on Aug. 13. The young men and young women, and any other residents willing to volunteer, will come out on Aug. 3 and Aug. 10 from 7-9 p.m. and clean up the weeds and do the work necessary to be ready for Horse and Buggy Days. The town will supply pizza for the volunteers.
During Horse and Buggy Days, a parade, games, a magic show, a bike ride, and breakfast will be held. The next Elmo Town Council meeting will be Aug. 23 at 7:30 p.m.

Jonah Ray reveals what it's like to have a live-in girlfriend, remembers a tense game of Truth-or-Date and recounts an unpleasant encounter with a heavy metal musician.
I don't like it. I don't like...I don't like...
Because I'm old now,I'm 30... I'm 30... I'm not...
Eh, there's not a two anymore.It's a three,
and it looks weird.
I don't like it 'cause I don'tfeel like an adult, you know?
Like, I don't feel like I havean adult body, you know?
Like-like, I was watchinga football game--
I was supportingmy favorite color scheme
and hoping they getall the points--
I was watchinga-a football game.
There's a guy going, "I'm 22."
I was like, "What?!
"But you have a man's body.
Where's my man's body?"
I've been drinking beerand eating burritos,
waiting for it show up--it has not.
(chuckles)I look like I have the bodyof a hairy baby.
I'm an adult. I don't knowhow to dress myself.
All my clothes are too tight.
I... Like, I... It's like...
This-this jacket?Not 'cause I'm cold.
It's because the shirtis ripped in the back.
I have many shirts like that.
And many jackets on a hot day.
Throw 'em out? No.
I-I dress like... the clothesare just too small.
I dress like I wentto a carnival last night
and wished I was big.
I found a boogerin my hair recently.
That's not like... Then, like...There was a booger
from my nose on my head.
In my head on my head,tangled up.
And my first reaction was like,
"I am, um, an adult."(chuckles)
"What are you doing here?"
I'm still scared of the dark.
Is anyone else scaredof the dark?(light applause)
I'm so scared of the dark.
But not for, like,silly childish reasons.
I'm scared of the darkfor practical reasons.
'Cause when it's dark, you know,you can't see anything,
and you can easily tripover something.
Like a m-m-monster.
I was talkingto somebody recently.
I was having a conversationwith somebody.
Words and sentences.
And then I askedhow old they were, what year
they were born in,and the guy said 1995.
No! 1995?!
But you're saying wordsand you're communicating!
You walked over here!I saw it with my eyes.
You're not born in '95!
That's impossible. You were...
It's like...Remember when Kurt Cobain died?
Feels like it was last year.
He couldn't remember itif he tried!
He could do all he could and go,"Mm, can't do it."
It's-it's horrible.
(stutters)I thought we-we all decided,like, after Kurt Cobain died,
I thought we were like, "No morepeople?" "Nah, no more people.
Let's just stop having people'cause humanity is the worst."
And he told me about his...thoughts and opinions
like he had any.It was ridiculous.
You don't know anything.You're dumb. You'll see.
But I was that kid.I was that, you know, lame kid
always just tryingto mess with old guys.
I worked at a record storein Venice Beach, California,
and I just used to, like, uh,mess with dudes all the time,
all the old guysthat would come in.
Like, I rememberwhen James Brown died.
A guy came, he was like, "Ican't believe James Brown died."
And I said to him,"Yeah, do you think
"when he was on his deathbedand then he finally passed on
"a guy put a glittery capeon him just in case?
Just to make sure?"
"Did you trythe American flag one?"
"Yeah, I did." "Oh, the funkis dead. Call it."
Out of a record storein Venice Beach, you got
a lot of guys coming injust talking about, like,
the old music they used to like.
They're not even thereto buy stuff.
They're worse than...homeless people, old people are.
It's like, they would come in,tell me, it's like,
"Oh, man. This is Venice Beach.
This is where the Doorsare from."
I said, "Man, the Doors werethe Smash Mouth of their time."
Not good is what I mean by that.
In caseyou're a Smash Mouth fan.
If you are,
get the (bleep) out!
You're not wanted.
Here's a sad fact,here's a sad fact:
the guy that singsin Smash Mouth,
richer than all of us combined.
You know what he sounds like?
And he's famous and rich.
No one really laughs at that
because it's so (bleep)depressing.
I'm 30. I'm 30.
I... have to make the decisionto be healthy now.
I got to be a healthy guy.
The only, uh...
the only thing that's reallydifferent in my life is that
that's not a beer; that's vodka.
That's the difference!
That's the one thing I changed.
It's a lot more fun.A lot faster.
It's just like... I got to...I got to fix it
'cause I'm getting the...like, the physique of a...
junkie that's also reallyinto pizza and donuts, you know?
I love that imagerymore than anything in my life.
Just, like, rightbefore nodding off,
"Whoa, Dunkin'."
"Don't mind if I..."(snores)
"...I do!"
I try not to drink beer,
which is the worst thingI've ever done in my life.
(chuckles)It's really hard. I love beer.
I love... I love,like, a hefeweizen beer.
You guys, like a wheat beer.Oh, it's good.
It's like candy. I tr...I'd eat candy to get drunk
if I could. Can't.Doesn't work, so I...
so hefeweizen.
But it sucks'cause it's, like, the most
fattening beer you can drink.So much carbs, a lot of sugar.
And it's like saying, "Hey, man.
What's your favorite kindof bread?"
"Cake's my favoritekind of bread.
"You ever have hamand Swiss on red velvet?
"Oh!(gibberish sounds)
I'm kind of a foodie,and it's my thing."
Quick tip:posting pictures on Facebook
of food does notmake you a foodie;
it makes you unfriendableon Facebook.
I like a good excuse to drink--
you need that as you get older.(chuckles)
Can't just go all out,especially when you get
into a relationship, you need anexcuse to drink during the day,
which is the best time to drink.
It's like you're getting awaywith something. You're not.
But it seems like it.You're like a spy.
You ever get drunkduring the day and then realize
you have to run an errand?Not a... Not fun.
"Anyway, we reallyshould work on that ba...
"Oh! My kids!
They won't know."
They know.
And it makessome of this happen.
I get... That's why you needa-an excuse.
You know, a good excuse to drink
is a sad friend. Ooh!A sad friend
is the best excuse to drink,'cause if you got that,
then you're set,because it's, like,
you can use that as an excuse.
I have a friend thatgoes through, like,
bad relationships constantly,and that's probably why
I keep him around.
He's, like, "Things aren'tgoing good with me and Amy."
I'd be, like, oh, no!
He needs the...(singing gibberish)
going to the thing, you and me.
Come on, I'll take youto Happy Land!
(laughter)'Cause I'm a good friend.
And now I can use thatas an excuse to my girlfriend.
I could be, like, "Well, whatam I supposed to do, Sheila?"
Fake girlfriend nameI just made up, Sheila.
"What am I supposed to do?
"He's my best friend, you bitch!
"I'm supposedto leave him here by himself?
(stammering):"He... What?
"Yeah. Yeah,I got Irish car bombs.
"I got a whole mess of them,because he just needs to let go,
"we need to do this. Wait.
"What's that?
"Yeah, I got chicken wings.
"Got a whole messof chicken wings,
"'cause he wasn't allowed toeat 'em, and now he's gonna...
"I don't know whenhe's gonna show up.
"But when he does...
we're gonna talk aboutwhy you're so tall in this bit."
I'll tell you a story... I wentto this house party once, and
there was a lot of us hangingout, and it turns out, uh,
Lars Ulrichfrom Metallica was there.
Uh, he's the drummerfor Metallica.
And we're all hanging outand it's, uh, crazy
'cause this guy's... Like,I grew up loving this dude.
I just like... He was one of myfavorite drummers of all time.
Uh, not so much anymore.
And it was like...It was kind of crazy.
I was like,"This is really crazy.
This is Lars Ulrich." And, uh...
I'm not gonna say legallythat he was doing cocaine.
But... cocaine was being done
and it wasn't anybody else.
And he starts trying to tell usabout, like, it's, like, music
and stuff like that, and, likejust start trying to figure out
one song, he's just, like,"Ah, oh, yeah, you got to...
oh, this one song, oh, brother."
And, uh... "Oh, brother"?
You're in a metal band.
And then he's, like, uh,
he's, like, he's, like,trying to tell us a song.
We're like,"Oh, we don't have it."
And this was a while back,too, this happened.
And, uh, he... we're nextto a computer-- he's like,
"Oh, uh, doesthat computer go online?"
And I was like, "Yeah,
"if it didn't I'd throw itout the (bleep) window.
What good would itdo me if it didn't?"
He's like, "Oh, well, anyway,yeah, I'll, um, I'll just, uh,
I'll download that song."
Now, here's the thingyou got to know.
This is pre-iTunes.
To say the words "I'm gonnadownload a song"
was illegal.
Mainly in part to
Lars (bleep) Ulrich.
This is the guy who made itso no one could do that.
The people that did--he sued them.
He sued fans of him--that'd be like
someone coming to me,"I really like your stuff."
And then I'd punch themin the balls.
And take their money.
And then poop on their face.
And then everyone kind of getsweird, they're like, "Whoa.
"This is... you're... what?
Nah, nah, why would...?"
And then, uh, he's, like, heunderstands it's kind of weird.
He's like, "Oh, no, no,it's cool-- I kind of have
an ultimate hall passwhen it comes to this thing."
Again, "ultimate hall pass"--how old are you?
You're in Metallica, come on.
And then, uh, and thenyou're just like, uh...
he's like, "I can do this."
And then I was like,"You know what?
If anyone could do that,it's not you."
That's like Hitler...
Years after that, same house.
I don't know why I went backto it after that situation.
I went to the house and me,and my friend Doug are there.
And, uh, we're bored, and thenwe somehow are drunk enough
to, like, go, "Hey, we shouldall play Truth or Dare,
'cause we're adults."
And then, like,
our whole plan was we were gonnastart a game of Truth or Dare,
and then we're gonna get girlsto kiss,
like, so it's not creepy, it's,like, I was like, "I dare you
to kiss my friend Doug," andDoug's gonna go, "I dare you
to kiss Jonah,"and it was gonna be great.
We were both gonnaget to kiss girls.
I was 25. (laughs)
And so we start playing,
and Doug's not going alongwith the game plan.
Three times, I've gottengirls to kiss him,
he's had his opportunitya handful,
I've not kissed any girls.
So all of a sudden I startlooking like a weirdo going,
like, "You, I dare youto kiss my friend Doug.
"He's so good at it.
He's the king of making out."
And he's doing nothing for me.
And then, walkingthrough the kitchen
where we're playing this
is Courtney Love.
The "musician."
From Hole.
She's walking by
and I see her, and I'm like,
in a drunken Tourette's moment,I'm like,
"Hey, Courtney Love, you in onthis game of Truth or Dare?"
And before I could turn backto my friends and go,
"Did you just see what I saidto Courtney Love?"
she goes, "Okay," and thensaunters up to the table
like a drunken walrus.
And then everyone, like,looks at me going,
"Aw, you justruined this party.
She is the opposite of a party--this is a bummer."
And then, like, uh,
she's, like, part of the game.
She's the newestperson in there.
And, um, so it'sher turn to be asked.
And so a girl goes,"All right, Courtney Love...
(giggly mumbling)
...truth or dare?"(giggly mumbling)
And we're all laughing becausewe're too old to be doing this.
And then Courtney Love says,"Truth."
And then we all go, "Oh, no...
"Oh, what?
"Oh, way to go,
Dumb Girl."
And then we all start zeroingin on the girl going,
"Go and ask her.
Go and ask her, ooh,just ask her, ask her!"
We have this opportunity,we have this window
of an opportunity to askCourtney Love that question.
Anyone that's a fan of musicat all gets to ask her
if she had anything to dowith it, if she knows anything
what, like, what happened...'cause she can't lie.
It's Truth or Dare.
It would negate the whole thing.
And then the girl doesn't knowwhat to do, so she's, like,
"Oh, um... (groans)
uh... best personyou ever had sex with."
Everyone's like,
Literally, everyone said, "Boo."
She starts to answer,
and then everyone's just like,"You know what-- party's over."
We all start getting up,we're all pissed at that girl.
And, like, it's just,like, lame.
And then, like, uh, I goand find that girl later on
in the party, I go, "What wasyour problem back there?
You choked."
And she's like,"Did you really expect me
to ask her that question?"
I said, "Even ifCourtney Love had said, 'Dare,'
"you should have said,'I dare you to tell us
you killed Kurt Cobain.'"

Review This Item
The BUSHNELL Elite 20-60x80 Spotting Scope, Angled (784580) gives you the advantage from the world's high point of brightness, clarity and edge-to-edge detail, whether you're birding at sea level or hunting above timberline.
Premium BaK-4 prisms and fully multi-coated lenses deliver flawless color fidelity, ultra-crisp images and optimum light transmission. ED Prime Extra-Low Dispersion fluorite glass provides amazing color resolution and contrast, and virtually eliminates chromatic aberration and color-fringing to bring out the most distinct details possible in low-light conditions.
The Elite 20-60x80 Spotting Scope features also waterproof construction and Bushnell RainGuard HD coating that keep things clear. This unique water-repellent coating causes water drops from rain, sleet, snow or condensation to bead up into much smaller droplets. These tiny droplets then scatter less light, resulting in a much clearer and brighter view.
Save yourself some legwork and start at the top.

The Staten Island University Hospital Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory provides invasive, diagnostic cardiac services to the young adult through geriatric patient.
The patient may require a cardiac catheterization to diagnose and determine treatment of symptoms of chest pain, shortness of breath, or when a (myocardial infarction) or angina is present. The patient with these symptoms is evaluated by a cardiologist using methods such as an electrocardiogram and stress test to recommend a cardiac catheterization.
A patient must be evaluated by a cardiologist before a Cardiac Catheterization and/or Angioplasty can be ordered.
After a cardiologist has determined that a Cardiac Catheterization is indicated he will call the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory and schedule the procedure. The department is available Monday through Friday from 7:30am to 4:30pm. Any emergency case, as determined by the Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, will be accommodated, in addition to 24/7 availability for infart-related angioplasty
A patient may be scheduled electively to undergo a cardiac catheterization. This patient is contacted by a registered nurse from the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory prior to the procedure. A telephone interview is conducted to determine if the patient had a procedure of this type before and if so, what were his or her experiences. Patients are asked about allergies, other medical problems and whether they are presently experiencing symptoms of an infectious process. All medications that the patient is presently taking are reviewed, and instructions about fasting (NPO) are given. This patient is also given the name of the staff member who will greet them on the day of their procedure.
A patient may already be admitted to Staten Island University Hospital and require a Cardiac Catheterization. These patients are given pre-procedure teaching by the nursing staff on the floors which includes their families whenever possible. The registered nurses of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory communicate with the staff from the floors on the day of the procedure to exchange information about the patients and his or her medical status.
A Patient may be at the South Site. These patients are transported on the day of their procedure to the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory by the appropriate means e.g. ALS Ambulance. These patients are monitored for two hours post procedure and then returned to the South Site.
The Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory has a waiting area for the families where they may see the physician and receive information about the patient.
The Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory is also available for cardioversions and transesopheageal echos (TEE). These procedures are requested by a cardiologist.

can't someone explain to me why Bates' cellmate and that guard are out to get him?
I caught a little bit of last night's episode on PBS and immediately noticed different scenes and lines from the original UK version. I wonder why they felt the need to re-edit it for American audiences?
Upstairs Downstairs is good. DA is a copy but I think it's a little more well done. Better acting IMO. Both good shows, but DA is what's running and that's what people currently care about. I understand why you've been making a serious push for people to watch upstairs downstairs though.
Like what? I've already watched Season 3 (ITV broadcast) but didn't catch it Sunday night here on PBS.
Last night I tuned in on the scene where Daisy and Albert were dancing the foxtrot and they had Daisy saying an extra line not in UK version saying "This reminds me of a long time ago when Thomas was teaching me to dance the Grizzly Bear", which was referencing series 1. In the few minutes I watched I noticed there were shots included that didn't appear in UK version.

We have been working during the cookie program on summer camp planning and are making some changes as a result of the camper comments and suggestions made at the end of last summer. In order to ensure every girl can experience what camp has to offer, there was a need to dramatically cut the number of programs offered. This suggestion was heard repeatedly last year from both camps. For example, not everyone got to run the zip lines or ride the banana boat, so this year we will be certain if the boat that tows the banana boat is working, everyone that wants to ride the banana boat will.
Focus will be continued on Girl Scout badge work in every program offered but we are going with a few broad themes so camp planning is less complex. As a parent it will be easier to select a camp. Don't worry, there will be plenty of new and fun things to do! We are offering a distinct, skill-building badge program for each age based on each week's theme. The theme for the first week of Scoutshire Woods and the first week of Kamp Kiwanis will be "Kamp Katniss", based on the popular movie The Hunger Games, which focuses on outdoor skills, adventure games and archery. The second week of Scoutshire Woods is "Pioneer Girl" which goes nicely with building traditional camp skills. For the last week of Kamp Kiwanis, we have "Experimental Explorers", a week full of scientific exploration and experimentation. And as always at Camp Scoutshire Woods, we will offering the horse program.
This year our council is adding a very convenient and exciting day camp option. As we discuss camp with parents, many don't want their girl away from home at night or camp competes with soccer and softball. In an effort to provide a great camp experience there will be day camp options at Camp Scoutshire Woods and Kamp Kiwanis. Planning with transportation companies to transport girls to both properties daily is in the works. Campers need to be dropped off at the Mobile Service Center between 7-8 a.m. and will return between 5-6 p.m. for the Camp Scoutshire Woods session. The same will be the case for Kamp Kiwanis, as we are working on transportation from the Montgomery Service Center. If there is sufficient interest from Auburn then a location will be determined. The day camp option will be $250 per week or 785 boxes of cookies with a cash deposit of $50 to attend.
Since day campers will be on the property, rather than turtle time after lunch, we are working to bring in local experts on a variety of topics. Hopefully, there will be some herps come to camp during that time, as well as some raptors and other great fun, learning experiences.
Still in the planning stages, is a great opportunity for an older girls' camp at the Wehle Conservation Center. This will be a resident camp that we can take full advantage of the resources available there. In addition to the wonderful resources, they also have an air-conditioned dormitory. The plan is to work with those older girls interested in this opportunity to shape the program they desire with a focus on leadership skills.
Sailing camp is still part of the mix and we are in the process of setting the dates. There has been interest in sailing 1 camp and sailing 2 camp, but we will need enough girls to make that work, otherwise we will continue with the mixed skill levels.
If you have questions or a specific interest in summer resident camps or day camps, please contact Amy Farrar, at email@example.com

|In response to Re: frost free hose bibs
They are a convenience not a necessity. They are not needed if you remember to shut off the water, and drain them, before the first freezing weather, and do not need to use the water from them until the weather gets warm again. If the homeowner does want to use water, or is forgetful, then they can become a "necessity".
: Hi all. I'm in negotiations to sell my house and one of the things the potential buyers asked is that I have frost free hose bibs installed on two outside faucets. I've been in this house for 10 years and have never had any problems ( the house is 60 years old). None of my neighbors have them and, sorry guys- i'm not a plumber, I've never heard of them. How necessary are frost free hose bibs in Boise,ID and do any of you have an idea what it should cost to replace them? Thanks.

Do I make your horny, baby? … Yes, we just made an Austin Powers reference. And while that might be an ancient bit of humor now, there is nothing else we can say when we take a look inside the pages of Playboy Magazine from 1976, where denim-on-denim is a trend so alive and well, they're making suits out of it. Suits with contrast-plaid collars, for instance. We're pretty sure this particular take on double denim is outdated, but some part of it is still alive and well. So guys, go ahead and smirk as you scroll, but just know it'll always be the job of future generations to smirk at vintage styles while they're also adapting them!
