Bondon: The Special.ist (ROAST)
Subtitled: The November 21, 2012 Train Wreck Thread
Happy pre-US-Thanksgiving Day everybody! I hope most of you take the day off tomorrow to watch some football and eat some turkey and (if in Canada) play hooky from work. Our dear forum friend bondon (the artist formerly known as bzerondon) has just passed into the special 9950+ post realm. Sure... there will be a 10K thread for the guy... but I thought it would be a nice holiday treat to have a ROAST of the bondon! Some of you may have noticed that bondon's new avatar is that of Sylverster Stallone in the "Special.ist". I find this appealing for several reasons. i) This website doesn't even allow us to write the full word spe******t. See, you can't see it. You have to write special.ist to get it past the filter... and yet that is his 9950-10,000 title! Love, love, love it! b) We all know of bondon's great specialty in goalie forecasting. He is indeed the special.ist. 3rd) I have a feeling that bondon doesn't look a damn thing like Sly... but for now, I shall imagine that he does. For my roast, I've decided to take the Wikipedia entry for the movie "The Special.ist" and modify it as I please to fit bondon's place in the Dobber Hockey community. My replacement words are blue ***** In 2011, fantasy-hockey experts working for the DobberHockey, Captain bondon and Colonel ericdaoust, are on a mission to blow up fellow DH members' fantasy goalie statistics. But when a newthread appears, a slanderous message is inside. Bondon insists they abort the mission but ericdaoust intends to see it through and allows the explosion to happen. Angered by the thread's direction, bondon beats ericdaoust up savagely and their partnership ends. Years later, in Toronto, bondon is now available for hire as a {ahem - special.ist}. Desperate people contact him via the Internet and he only takes the cases that interest him. bondon specializes in "shaping" his forum posts, building and planting bombs that blow up fantasy hockey teams, leaving THE innocent bystander unharmed in his assumption that Alex Pietrangelo is the best defensemen in the universe. Bondon answers ads placed by dyzfunctioned and speaks to him often to decide if he should take a very, very, very special job or not. During the talks he becomes intrigued by his story coupled with the fact that he sees how attractive he is while following him. He is the only child of past fantasy hockey fanatics who were killed by MT319 and his men. Against his better judgment and pushed by Dyz' insistence that he will infiltrate the forum with or without him, bondon is persuaded to do a very, very, very special job for him. Even though he has agreed, Dyz ingratiates himself into MT319's world as Magnum PI. ericdaoust now works for hfboards, MT319' father and head of their non-sensical trainwreck one-liner organization. Once the lockout begins, they contact the Dobber to place ericdaoust in their writer group. Dyz tolerates MT319 and plays along as his girlfriend so he can learn about player-skill-sets one by one. It is revealed after the avatar war that Dyz has actually been forced into a partnership with ericdaoust, whose goal was to coax bondon out of hiding. After the very, very, very special job went wrong, ericdaoust lost his job writing about actual fantasy hockey. When the trap for MT319 is set, Dyz is in the room. When MT319 is killed, it appears that Dyz was killed as well. When ericdaoust goes to bondon to pay his respects, he is left alive only so he can find bondon and bring him to Tequila Monster before MT319 is buried. Both bondon and ericdaoust believe that Dyz is dead, yet bondon still responds to the bulletin board messages. Once he responds to one, he finds is the one set up by ericdaoust and the train-wreck squad. When bondon realizes it, he taunts ericdaoust. When he goes to the funeral of Magnum PI, bondon finds that Dyz is alive. He went to the funeral to see if bondon would attend. They go to an off-line website where they have intense {ahem, discussions}. In the shower, he reveals that he wanted to look at MT319's face while he died. They finish having {ahem, discussions} and Dyz leaves. Meanwhile, ericdaoust has gone to the forums and learns that the person editting all the trainwreck threads is not Dyz. Dyz runs into ericdaoust in the forum lobby and makes an excuse as to why he did not tell him that he was Magnum PI. A henchman, named Angus, is ordered to take Dyz to "The Lounge" and on the way he asks to visit the Prospects Forum. Once there, he uses a PDA to warn bondon. bondon rigs the Lounge to explode into trainwreck threads, and when ericdaoust's henchmen enter the room, it detonates, breaking the entire lounge off into the baseball forum. In a final showdown, bondon and dyz are cornered in his own booby-trapped goalie prediction thread. ericdaoust pursues them, but is done in by his own hubris when he steps on a bomm-bastic. After the entire Dobber website goes up due to the chain of exploding trainwreck threads, it appears that all inside have given up on this ridiculous lockout. The next day Tequila Monster reads about the incident at DobberHockey. He then opens the mail brought to him and finds a stunning McDonald's hologram and McRib sandwich. It contains a picture of Sidney Crosby and then explodes. After hearing the blast and knowing all responsible for her lockout are dead, bondon asks how Dyz feels. To which Dyz responds, "Have you heard this song yet?" Gobble, gobble. Train wreck... hooooooooo.... Last edited by Pengwin7; 11-21-2012 at 12:26 PM. |
Wow, how the hell did you find out how I actually made it on the writing team???
Every bit of it is true, except for the part where I write about actual fantasy hockey. I just spin bullshit numbers.

Wow... just wow.
Ah bondon all hope, the end is nigh!
Okay, so maybe nobody likes a cynic, but everybody f**king hates those perky optimists! ... and anyway, I make a damn good cynic. |
Mr. Pengwin7, what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
Ha! Fun......

Bondon's powers of destruction may specialize in goaltending but they are not limited to the masked arts.

Has anyone followed Bondon's activity in the baseball forum? I wonder if it's a catching glove thing.

"Pray to whatever higher being you believe in that this stand-up preacher never loses his childish, crazy ways." ***** The Scotsman
"Brilliant & life-affirming – Tommy Tiernan actually makes you proud to be Irish." -The Irish Independent
"He has the vocabulary of a poet, the soul of a maverick & the passion of an evangelist." - Chortle
Of all the outlaw counties that we have produced there is none where the air is as fresh, the light so mighty and the music as wild as in Clare. The lunacy seems effortless and natural and good for ya. It's the only place in the world where you can get healed by madness. Living in west for the past twenty years and seeing the county every day from his house, Tommy believes Clare has always belonged more in Connaught than Munster and this World Tour is he hopes only a prelude to an invasion to steal the county back
Tommy's mastery of stand-up allows him to take risks other comedians dare not. Through hilarious storytelling and a high energy, non- apologetic delivery he continually challenges his audience who can be confident they are in safe hands. To see Tiernan live is a rare treat, as his stories unfold and themes are elaborated his performance mesmerises as his lyrical way with words make you laugh harder than you'd ever believe possible.
Tommy Tiernan's brand new DVD "Crooked Man" has been receiving rave reviews from the critics see below some of the highlights:
"If there's a more beautiful stand-up DVD out there, we've yet to see it. . It's also refreshing to see a comic put some love into their live DVD, rather than simply churning out another Christmas cash-in. It's beautifully shot and the Irish comic is on spectacularly funny form." – Time Out London
"The best of this bunch is Storyteller Tommy Tiernan's Crooked Man, There's unlikely to be a more compelling stand-up out there today, with this show giving us all the sides of Tiernan from the hushed conspirator to the firebrand preacher, riffing on childhood, family and a little bit of politics. Pure genius, so it Is " (●●●●●) The List
"The DVD feels wonderfully intimate, capturing the mischievous atmosphere the Navan native effortlessly conjures as he muses on marriage religion and turning 40, judging by Crooked Man, growing old disgracefully suits Tiernan perfectly" – Hot Press

GALLIA COUNTY — The Gallia LEADS AfterSchool programs have sponsored three of their four social studies family nights at three local elementary schools.
The three that have been presented so far were at Addaville Elementary on November 8 with 188 students and adults present. The second one was at Vinton Elementary on November 13 with 171 students and adults present. The third event was at Southwestern Elementary on November 15 with 105 students and adults present.
Family nights at the Gallia County AfterSchool programs focus on an academic or cultural experience. In the past, the programs have focused on science, reading, math and bringing together generations of families. These social studies family nights are the first attempt at presenting history to the students and families in the Gallia LEADS programming. The time period presented was 1777 during the Revolutionary War.
The social studies objectives were to teach children the meaning of the American Flag and how to present and show respect for the flag. This was done at Addaville by Veterans Wayne Thomas, John Hood and Bill Spaun from the Drew Webster Post #39 American Legion, Pomeroy, Ohio and at Vinton and Southwestern by Veterans Larry Marr, Pete Spencer and John Watson from Post 709 Gallia County Vietnam Veterans of America, Gallipolis, Ohio.
The second objective was to bring historical moments to life through presenting famous men, women and events through first person dialogue. Two historical scenarios that brought history to life were a "A Chat with Benjamin Franklin" and "The Old Barricks: Recruitment and Induction of Local Farmers into General George Washington's Continental Army." Benjamin Franklin was played by Roger Jerome, a professional actor well known in Gallia County having worked with many students in the county schools. John Sharp, a Meigs County Middle School history teacher, played the "Old Sargent" who trained the troops. Tom Metcalf, a local historian, played the recruiter, and several social studies teachers in the schools played nurses — Erinn Matthews, Becky Woodyard and Marlene Wood.
The final objective was to show that children during the American colonial period had toys and enjoyed playing as children do today and to present the two political views leading up to the war of independence — do the colonial citizens remain loyal to the King of England or do they join the fight for independence? Elizabeth Matthews, Lynn Arnott and Woodyard allowed the student to play with toys known to have existed during the colonial period. Jodi Coleman, Debra Walker and Beth Ruff had their students present "Loyalist vs. Patriots" scenes from "The American Revolution: A Play" by Brian Beckenstein.
The final program will be presented at Hannan Trace Elementary on December 18, and students and their families associated with the school are encouraged to attend.
These events were planned and organized by Woodyard and Fannie Metcalf, Gallia-Vinton ESC consultants.

Theres a growing recognition that traditional, talk-based therapies often help people understand why they suffer, but don't do much to relieve their suffering. This course will provide concrete, practical ways to help clients heal, so they no longer fall into abysses of despair, irrational fears, or tormenting self-criticism. The instructor will explain his Internal Family Systems model, how to identify and integrate the inner parts a client has exiled, and how to help them unload extreme beliefs, energies, and emotions. He will discuss the presence of the Self--a core of equanimity and leadership that can be accessed as the primary healer in even the most distressed clients. This rapid, non-pathologizing approach to healing is empowering and enjoyable. He will give special attention to using this model with couples and with trauma. He will also explore the spiritual aspects of this work.
Richard Schwartz, Ph.D. is director of the Center for Self Leadership in Chicago and originator of the Internal Family Systems Model. He's the author of five books, including Internal Family Systems Therapy.
Session 1: What Does It Mean to Heal? • Understanding coping and distinguishing it from healing and transforming • The shortcomings of traditional, talk-based therapies • Overview of the Internal Family Systems model • Two paths to healing: What are the parts? • The Multiplicity Paradigm • The common roles parts are forced into: Managers, firefighters, exiles
Session 2: The Key To Healing: Releasing the Self • Why so few psychotherapies and so many spiritual paths know about the Self • Qualities of Self-leadership • How to release the Self and common fears about doing so • Embodiment: The relationship between the Self and the body • Getting to know a part from the perspective of your Self
Session 3: Steps to Healing: Connecting, Witnessing, and Unburdening • Appreciating and negotiating with managers and firefighters • Creating a trusting relationship between Self and a part • Witnessing where the part is stuck in the past • Helping the part unburden extreme emotions and beliefs • Integrating the transformed part into the system
Session 4: Helping Traumatized Clients Heal • The effects of trauma on internal systems • A new approach to affect regulation • Working with dangerous firefighters • Working with highly suspicious managers
Session 5: A New Approach to Couples • Understanding the wars between each partner's parts • Creating safety--mutual disarmament • Fostering and maintaining Self-to-Self communication • Working with one while the other watches • Witnessing each other's attachment injuries
Session 6: Integrating Therapy and Spirituality • Why many spiritual practices aren't therapeutic • Therapy sessions as spiritual practices • The Self of the therapist • Self-to-Self connection at all levels
1. Identify the difference between therapies focused on coping and those aimed at healing
2. List the different roles that traumatized subpersonalites are forced into
3. List the different qualities of the Self
4. Describe the 6 steps to healing an exiled part
5. Describe how to help couples maintain Self-to-Self communication
6. Identify the spiritual aspects of healing

Socialite's climb halted by unfolding scandal
Thursday, November 15, 2012
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Jill Kelley's attempt to climb the Tampa social ladder — the rungs of which included some high-ranking military officials — has come to an ignominious halt. Accounts of lavish parties at her bay front mansion have been replaced by reports of her family's financial woes and other dirty laundry, and claims that she traded on her acquaintance with David Petraeus to try to further lucrative business dealings. Now, even her "Friends of MacDill" Air Force base access pass has been unceremoniously revoked. |

MIHS grad Patterson to tour with rock band
November 27, 2012 · 11:26 AM
Jake Patterson, a graduate of Mercer Island High School, has signed on to tour with Paul Brown and the Killing Devils.
The band will play in Anaheim, St. Louis and New York, among several other cities in a coast-to-coast tour. Patterson, a sophomore at the Berklee College of Music, will be the lead guitarist for the band. Paul Brown has produced a number of CDs and has received international acclaim for his work.
As noted in the NYC Village Voice a few years ago, Brown's "music has been played all over the world. He is a gifted singer, songwriter and musician with one of the best progressive rock bands on the planet." In July 2006, the Killing Devils released the critically acclaimed "Red Spider" CD. More recently, they have released "The Wizard's Dawn," also with outstanding reviews.
Although proud of this development, Patterson's parents have expressed some ambivalent feelings about their son's recent accomplishment.
"I didn't exactly raise my son, or fork out music school tuition, for him to become a 'killing devil,'" his father, David Patterson, stated. "Besides, my understanding is that the mission of a devil is really to steal souls rather than to kill. So to be touring with a band with inherent irony in its name presents an immediate challenge.
"Also, I am not sure how being a 'killing devil' will come across when Jake submits a resume to be an elementary school music teacher or something."
Intended humor in the preceding paragraph notwithstanding, Patterson has been greatly influenced in his music by Mercer Island High School mentors Tom Cox (guitar and jazz choir) and Dave Bentley (jazz ensemble), as well as local Seattle notable musicians Greg Ruby and Jay Roberts.

I finished Haruki Murakami's new novel 1Q84 a few weeks ago and I have been letting it settle in my brain for a while before I wrote about it. Clocking in at over 950 pages, 1Q84 will take time to read. Luckily, it is time well spent and it is a thoroughly enjoyable story. 1Q84 takes place is a Tokyo in 1984 and follows the lives of the two protagonists, Aomame and Tengo. Murakami alternates the chapters between Aomame and Tengo. Their stories are intertwined although the reader is unsure how or even why. Like Murakami's other books, this book could be categorized as magical realism. (If you are not acquainted with that term think about books/stories like The Metamorphosis, Beloved, The Master and Margarita, and The Alchemist. These are story's that take place in the real world, our world, but yet are intruded upon by the supernatural (Beloved and The Master and Margarita), unexplained events (The Metamorphosis), or with the bending, merging of realities (1Q84).) For some people this isn't their cup of tea, but I find that books of this ilk can be both incredibly entertaining and packed with meaning.
Tengo is a typical Murakami male character and almost a stereotype of a Japanese male: introspective, honorable, and taciturn. (In some ways he is very similar to Toru Okada from The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle.) Tengo, like Toru, is a lackluster 30 year old who has enormous potential (he's a brilliant mathematician, martial artist, writer, and pretty much anything he puts his mind to) but yet hasn't quite found his niche in the world. He teaches math part-time and in the other time he is an aspiring novelist. At both he excels but not too much, and he seems content to just slog along in his life. Aomame, on the other hand, has her life mostly figured out. She's a physical trainer at a high-class Tokyo gym and in her spare time assassinates men who have repeatedly and harshly beaten their wives. For the most part she likes her life and she is very good at her chosen professions.
For the first few hundred pages Murakami is content to let the reader get to know the various characters, and slowly but surely set up the story. Very early on the reality between 1984 and 1Q84 become inter-meshed and you spend large swaths of time, like the characters, not sure which reality is which. The story lines come crashing together, however, around the end of the second book, about 600 pages in, and before that you are left to wonder how these people are connected. But by the end of the second book many questions are answered (although there are still a lot of loose ends, more on that later). In the third book Murakami adds another character to the book, the tenacious and vile Ushikawa. Alternating between the three, the book alters slightly is style from the previous two, as Ushikawa is investigating Tengo and Aomame trying to find out what we already know. All while Aomame and Tengo are trying to find resolution for their prior actions before Ushikawa can find them.
That's about as much into the plot I can get without giving out any significant spoilers. Throughout the book though Murakami touches on a number of themes, but for me the major themes were: the negative effects of religion on people (I take it as religion as a whole while others think just he's only speaking about cults, but in reality the only difference between cults and religions is popularity and societal acceptance), relationships (father-son and family-friends), and love. It took me about a month to read this book (around two hours a day on my commute to and from work) and that it was a very enjoyable time. I loved the story line, the characters, and being immersed in this world. Then again I like long books. Especially, if the authors are good about keeping the story going and not dragging it along. This book is a prime example of how to do that. I was never bored or skipped forward and I actually missed my stop on the train a few times because I was so immersed. As I mentioned above the story ends with some loose ends, which I think is fine because the major questions are resolved, but if you like every little story line explained in full and wrapped up with a little bow, then well you might get agitated at the end.
Lastly, I checked this book out on my kindle but there was no way I'd finish it in 3 weeks so I turned off my WiFi and was able to make it to the end. So if you have a kindle and ever check out a book on it just turn off your WiFi and you won't have to worry about the book disappearing before you're done.

Federal regulators have approved Camden National Bank's acquisition of 15 Bank of America branches in Maine. Camden National will pay a 3.7% premium on the locations' deposits, which equals a total price of about $15.3 million.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has approved the deal, which affects Bank of America branches in the following municipalities: Auburn, Augusta, Bangor, Brewer, Gardiner, Lewiston, Newport, Old Town, Rockland and Waterville. Camden National will also re-open the Orono location, which Bank of America closed in December. The transaction is expected to close during the fourth quarter, and customer accounts at the affected locations will be converted to Camden National accounts at that time.
Following a customary antitrust review, Camden National reached an agreement with the Department of Justice to divest the branch at 63 Union St. in Rockland. On July 2, the bank reached an agreement to sell the branch to Damariscotta-based The First. The First is also buying Camden National's building in Bangor with plans to open a branch there. Camden National will relocate its Bangor branch to the Bank of America location.
Camden National will also host a career fair to fill new jobs created by the acquisition. The bank didn't say how many jobs it plans to create, but that it would likely hire for "several important service-oriented positions" in loan servicing, electronic banking, compliance and other areas, according to Senior Vice President of Human Resources Carolyn Carson-Crosby. The job fair will happen Aug. 1 from 1 to 7 p.m. at 245 Commercial St. in Rockport.

This website is primarily designed to be used by those who authorise and conduct covert surveillance operations and use covert human intelligence sources (as informants and undercover officers are now known). It shows you how to carry out these activities in compliance with the powers granted by Parliament, and how the OSC monitors the exercise of those powers. By way of practical help we have identified some key points, some sources of advice, and some examples of good and bad practice.
I hope that the website will also be useful to members of the public who are interested in finding out about covert surveillance. It is worth noting that although this website is relevant to most public authorities, it is not concerned with telephone intercepts. The basic legal principles are to be found in the Police Act 1997, to which we shall refer as 'the 1997 Act', the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (`RIPA') and the Regulation of Investigatory Powers (Scotland) Act 2000 (`RIP(S)A').
We intend to develop the site. How we do so will depend on the use that is made of it. So please let us know how you think it can be improved.

Neighborhood residents came out to celebrate on Saturday after improvements on 33rd Avenue NE were finished recently. The project was completed in 2012 but the celebration was planned for spring, when the newly-planted vegetation would bloom.
A ribbon cutting and parade of residents celebrated the improvements on the road behind Value Village and one block off Lake City Way. The road, like many in Lake City, was inhospitable to pedestrians before the improvements. This despite a concentration of people living in the immediate vicinity, including many children, elderly and disabled people in wheelchairs.
The project was paid for with Bridging the Gap funds after a Neighborhood Matching Fund grant helped pay for design of the project.
The project was taken up by community leaders who advocated for funding and guided the effort after recognizing a need in the area. The improvements include new sidewalks, drainage, curbs, lighting and landscaping.
A community fair with tasty desserts and sandwiches provided by the Lake City Bakery followed the ribbon cutting and parade.
The City of Seattle's Department of Transportation said the changes "improve the pedestrian environment by providing a landscaped buffer from traffic; improve drainage and lighting as well as traffic calming the street." A future project might include a mid-block crosswalk and Greenways elements to further calm traffic.
Photos below show the newly improved area (left) and how it looked before the improvements (right).

My sincere congratulations for this wonderful site. I discovered your work just a few days ago and I was astonished with the marvelous photographic scanners you build.
As I saw in the internet archives pdf files are compressed in such a way that when you opened them with an OCR software like Abby Fine Reader 10 Professional, and rebuild them again they acquire an huge size. My question is: what do you do or what software do you use to compress so efficiently those digitalized files?
As I told you I use Abby Fine Reader 10 and the only way to compress a scanned book in pdf (the most used format) is to transform it in a black and white version or gray with a medium quality image. This is better than nothing but I need to discover a more efficient way to make this.
I'll appreciate all the help you can give me about this topic
Many thanks and all the luck in the world for you and Diy Book Scanner project.

Size: 40D
I saw this bra and thought "that does not look like it will have any support". I was so wrong! This is not the most fashionable looking bra, but omg it stayed put, was comfortable all day, the straps didn't cut in. The elastic or whatever is in the back strap is great. It doesn't move, twist, ride or dig in. I have never had a soft cup bra that felt as good as this one! I probably wont ever buy another brand! If i had one request, it would be that its only available in nude, and i would like a white one too. missy from texas

Investors pulled about $5.3 billion from long-term equity mutual funds in the week to May 2, according to the latest Investment Company Institute data. That follows inflows of about $1.3 billion the previous week.
Investors still love bonds, though, plowing another $7.5 billion into fixed-income funds.
It won't be music to the ears of investors in the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund (EEM). Marketfield Asset Management chairman Michael Shaoul argues today that a "number" of emerging-markets countries and their currencies are entering a new correction:
It is becoming increasingly likely that a number of emerging market currencies and equity markets have entered a new corrective phase in what we believe is a multi-year bear market that started in late 2010.
One distinct change in the current move compared to that of 2011 is that a number of EM currencies have exhibited weakness in advance of local equity markets breaking support. We suspect this is due to a combination of lower provision of liquidity from European lenders and also a substantial supply of local currency denominated fixed income issues that finally overwhelmed the massive appetite shown by global investors.
Markets have pared morning losses amid fresh cooing sounds from European officials, but Greece stands ready to keep traders on the defensive. For instance: Dow Jones Newswires reports this afternoon that the Greek Leftist Party Syriza sees fresh elections as the only solution for the current impasse. Those elections probably won't turn up a government that resumes the path to austerity, so be prepared for market volatility to re-enact itself all over again.
The good news is that equity strategists are once again baking just this type of headline-after-headline environment into their assumptions for another year. Here's PNC Asset Management's Bill Stone this afternoon:
We anticipate a continued trend of rolling crises to roil the markets from time to time. The events from summer 2011 on show the vulnerability of the markets to ongoing threats—the federal government fiscal debates and the Eurozone to name just two. While there has been some improvement in the Eurozone debt situation, we expect news out of Europe, including about the recession, to continue to affect the markets this year.
Gold has become a "risk" asset with leverage to Europe's debt crisis. That much seems pretty clear from today's volatile trading.
Gold futures, ETFs and mining stocks appeared headed for another big loss early in the session. But as European officials scrambled to appear proactive, stocks pared their losses and took the gold complex along for the ride. Gold futures enjoyed a much better session than looked possible this morning.
The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) is down 0.8% but the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is now up 2.9%, bouncing off levels last seen in February 2010. The Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) is up 2.7%.
Gold trader Jordan Roy-Byrne watches the action and decides to close out his position in the highly leveraged Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bear 3x Shares (DUST), even telling clients to consider opening a new one in the Direxion Daily Gold Miners Bull 3x Shares (NUGT). He argues the sector has bottomed:
The action of yesterday and today is what qualifies for a bottom (at least in my mind). Yesterday the sector gapped down and closed in the bottom half of the range. That was followed by another gap down today and thus far, a monster reversal. The weekly charts are going to show major reversals and volume is going to come in very close to the highest in the past 2+ years.
Hedge funds lost an average 0.23% in April following a great first quarter, with the toughest declines for energy, commodity and some emerging-markets strategies.
Credit did relatively well, the data from eVestment|HFN show. Funds focused on Russia slumped 5.7%. Commodities strategies lost 1.55%. The energy niche's decline was 1.13%.
Bright spots included mortgage fixed-income strategies, up 0.74%, and Middle East/North Africa-focused funds, up 1.77%.
When it comes to asset flows, funds above $1 billion in assets grabbed "virtually all" the reported inflows. Overall net flows were slightly negative for the second straight month.
The outliers in a given day's exchange-traded fund returns are usually three-times leveraged trackers of gold or a leveraged inverse S&P 500. Today, even as U.S. markets are off their lows, the Spain and Austria ETFs are near the bottom.
The iShares MSCI Spain Index Fund (EWP) and the iShares Austria Investable Market Index Fund (EWO) are down 3.9% and 3.4%, respectively, oustripping today's losses in a range of leveraged ETFs. Both funds are heavy in financial stocks.
The Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX) just erased what was left of a once-formidable YTD gain, slumping 2.6% early Wednesday and trading down 0.3% on the year. It's far from the only Europe ETF to show this week's strain.
The iShares MSCI Spain Index Fund's (EWP) slump of 4.7% in early trading puts its year-to-date loss at 19%; the iShares MSCI Italy Index Fund (EWI) is down 8.4% for 2012; the iShares MSCI Netherlands Index Fund (EWN) clings to a 0.5% year-to-date gain.
Even some dividend-themed funds have turned red year-to-date. The First Trust Stoxx European Select Dividend Income Fund's (FDD) 2.4% loss today sends it down a cumulative 1.9%.
As traders sell gold again Wednesday, we still haven't seen appreciable outflows in the exchange-traded funds. The futures market is driving this action.
"[A]s long as gold ignores the good news – e.g. strong growth in Chinese first quarter demand, withdrawal of excise duty on jewellery in India – speculative financial investors are likely to see themselves forced to continue selling, keeping the price of gold under pressure for the time being," writes Commerzbank's commodities team in a note.
Gold adds to yesterday's four-month low as it falls 1.2% to $1,585 recently. The SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) is down 1.4% in early trading while the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (GDX) is down 1.4% and is trading at levels last seen in February 2010. The Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) is taking matters even harder, falling 2.7%.
Market check: No, Spain and Italy can't levitate forever. After the rest of Europe's stock indexes hurtled lower, Spain's Ibex 35 index falls 3.3% Wednesday and Italy's FTSE MIB index sheds 2.3%. More surprising may be the relatively gentle 0.9% loss in France's CAC 40. Traders are passing around unsettling RBS charts of the country's exposure to the sovereign-debt culprits. French banks still have exposure the size of 20% of the country's nominal GDP.
Fund watch: Volatility traders are waking up again, judging by the premarket action in the leveraged VelocityShares 2X VIX Short-Term ETN (TVIX) and ProShares Ultra VIX Short-term Futures ETF (UVXY). Here's our piece yesterday explaining why it may be tough to monetize even an ultimately correct market call with volatility ETNs.
In the news: Barrons.com's Mike Aneiro reviews Arrow Funds' first ETF, the Arrow Dow Jones Global Yield ETF (GYLD), here.
In case you missed it: Hedge funds may be allowed direct access to stocks and bonds in mainland China, according to this Reuters report.
As exchange-traded funds and other investing vehicles have ballooned in number, the task of figuring out what works well and what doesn't has only gotten harder. Barrons.com's Focus on Funds looks under the hood of ETFs, mutual funds and hedge funds for overlooked values, actionable ideas and the latest pitfalls for fund investors. The blog is written by Brendan Conway, Barron's funds blogger and columnist.

Disney's New Cinderella Live Adaption Movie
Walt Disney Studio's is hoping to begin production of Cinderella sometime later this year with the film being released at some point in 2014.
The live adaptation of the fairy tale will be directed by Kenneth Branagh.
So far Disney Studios have cast Cate Blanchett has already been cast to play the wicked stepmother. Disney are said to be in talks with Emma Watson (Hermione Granger in Harry Potter) to play the part of Cinderella .
What do you think, do you think she would be the right person to play Cinderella?
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne
A friend is a hand that is always holding yours,
no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.
Re: Disney's New Cinderella Live Adaption Movie
I really like her a lot. I think she's terribly talented and versatile. (I loved her in Perks of Being a Wallflower). But hearing this news around the 'net lately has me confused because I had heard she was going to be Belle in a live action Beauty and the Beast, and now this. Is she going to be both? Because both might annoy me a little. It will be like Chris Evans being both Captain America and Johnny Storm in Fantastic 4. :/

BERLIN -- Part road movie, part golden years romantic comedy, Emmanuelle Bercot's "On My Way," premiering Friday at the Berlin International Film Festival, is also a love affair between director and actor. And not just any actor, but French national treasure Catherine Deneuve.
Deneuve plays over-60 ex-beauty queen Bettie. Jilted by her lover, harangued by her busybody mother, and about to lose the family seafood restaurant, Bettie gets in the car for a drive and ends up on a grand adventure. On the go, she runs into a string of mostly nice oddballs, picks up a sidekick -- her rambunctious grandson Charly (played by Nemo Schiffman), from her troubled estranged daughter (played by singer Camille) -- and charms her way across France, all the while bumming cigarettes from what seems like most of the country's residents.
Bercot, who wrote and directed 2005's "Backstage" and was co-writer of 2011's "Polisse," gives us a lover's view of the slowly fading beauty -- the camera lingers affectionately on Deneuve's hair, face, eyes, arms and polished toenails, and a young lover (Paul Hamy) remarks how he envisions her younger self while they are intimate.
"There's only one raison d'etre for this film and that's Catherine. I wrote it for her," Bercot said in Berlin. "The driving force behind this film was not the story we tell in the film, but rather working with Catherine. She is the film, as far as I am concerned. I can't put it any better than that." Deneuve countered with care, saying she joined the originally unformed project solely for the chance to work with Bercot, not for the richly drawn character she ended up portraying.
Bercot said she hoped to avoid the cliches of the classic American road movie, while addressing them, such as the compulsory stop at the gas station. Instead of being menaced by strangers, the character is forced to confront her own history, and future. "Bettie started asking new questions and she got new answers, she found out new things," explained Deneuve. "So it was a great journey, I would say."
The film also helped bring a sunny end to the notoriously earnest Berlinale. Bercot said she fulfilled her goal of making a positive film. "I'd had enough of making of negative, sad movies and I wanted to cast a brighter light on things," she told the crowd.
"On My Way" will be distributed in the United States by Cohen Media Group; the company picked up the film in advance of its Friday premiere.

Published : Friday, 16 Nov 2012, 1:32 PM EST
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A judge has granted Miley Cyrus a three-year civil restraining order against a man who was convicted last month of trespassing at her home in Los Angeles.
The stay-away order was granted Friday against Jason Luis Rivera by Superior Court Judge William D. Stewart.
The 40-year-old Rivera was convicted in October of trespassing at the singer's home and sentenced to 18 months in jail.
He is scheduled to be released in May. Authorities said at the time of Rivera's arrest in September that he was carrying scissors and ran into the wall of Cyrus' home as if trying to break in.
Rivera did not respond to Cyrus' petition.
The 20-year-old former star of "Hannah Montana" did not attend the hearing. Her attorney Bryan Sullivan declined comment.

text: On-Campus Employment Almost any student is eligible for campus employment! Available positions are posted in the Office of Financial Aid, and on the Career Services Center Website. Interested students should apply directly to the academic unit advertising for student help. Students receive a bi-weekly paycheck for the hours they work (In general, students work about 10 hours per week). Federal Work-Study, Part-Time Off-Campus Employment Although most campus employment positions are open to any student, Clarion does have some off-campus federally-funded work study positions, such as positions in the Community Service Off-Campus Federal Work-Study Program. These positions are only open to students with unmet financial need, as per the FAFSA. Students who are interested in these positions may contact the Center for Teaching Excellence (America Reads/Keystone Smiles Program) at 814-226-2776, or the Career Services Center in 114 Egbert Hall at 814-393-2323. International Students and Campus Employment International students, like any other Clarion University students, are eligible to work on campus. However, as non-residents, there are several additional forms that they need to file before they can be placed on the payroll and receive a paycheck. International students who are interested in obtaining an on campus position should consult with personnel in the Office of International Programs first.
