Senior Joe Bartlett (Reno) won the shot put with a lifetime-best distance of 58-feet, 1/4 inch (17.68m). Earlier in the day Bartlett threw the discus 164-5 (50.11m) for third place.

Our faithful Audrey readers have made one thing clear to us: they love adorable Asian babies. Of course, we don't blame them. Who can resist squealing over those round eyes and chubby cheeks?
To appease our readers, we brought you the Adorable Asian Baby Overload, Asian Babies With Puppies and even A Halloween Costume Edition. Looks like we're all out of cute babies, right?
Don't you worry. We noticed one thing in particular with these children who reach social media fame. Many of them have a killer fashion sense. That, or they have parents who understand how much we eat these pictures up. Some people complain that these fashion-heavy photos are simply parents vicariously living through their children by dressing them up to reach viral fame. Others claim that these parents simply enjoy the idea of a well-dressed toddler. Whatever the reason may be, they certainly caught our attention.
Here are kids who make the playground their runway and lower our self-esteem by dressing way better than we ever did during our toddler years.

really interesting tour, beautiful island with a very sad past, the tour guide was really good and the bbq and swim afterwards was lovely.
Really enjoyable day. The tour was well organized and efficiently run. The cruise was lovely and our barbecue meal was delicious. The area is stunningly beautiful.
This is a great one day excursion. I was skeptical about the leper colony island, but it was a lot of fun. You can hike wherever to the very top to see the ruins, or stick at the bottom with the tour guide. Then for lunch they stop at a private island where people swim while the crew grills up lunch.
Excellent tour and very fun and informative. I highly recommend it.
What an excellent trip. The guide was friendly and informative and the visit to Spinalonga was interesting and enjoyable although the time on the island is quite short and by the time you have had the tour you do not have much time to explore on your own - if you already know the history of Spinalonga you should probably just leave the tour and spend the time exploring on your own. The bay swim and bbq was absolutely wonderful. We would definitely recommend this tour and will definitely do it again next time we are in Crete.
SHONA S New Zealand
I really enjoyed the day and pleased I did the tour. A good way to see more of Crete after a week walking in Western Crete. The local taxi pick up from my hotel to connect with the bus was on time as was the taxi waiting to meet the bus to return to my hotel at the end of the day. Excellent driving by the bus driver ( he managed so well in the narrow streets with the way the Greeks park) and the tour guide was excellent. Overall an excellent tour. However I did expect/ would have liked to have quite a bit longer on Spinalonga Island which was my reason for booking the tour.
Tour Wednesday 15 May 2013. No photos as my camera jammed and I am waiting for some from some one I met up with on the bus.
Kathleen Z Australia
Amazing day of relaxed sailing, swimming and seeing a wonderful island with an unusual history.
Okay so I've read The Island By Victoria Hislop and thats the reason I wanted to visit. I actually think having read the book it made the trip more real. I would have loved to have seen the inside of the hospital but this was having work done. We went out of main season so got chance to explore without the crowds. Would recommend reading the book before you go, Horrifying to think how lepers were treated in the past. Perhaps the cretan government would consider donating some of this tourist monies
It was along day for me as I got picked up from Heraklion, other than that it was quite enjoyable. The island was interesting and I enjoyed lunch. It was too cold for swimming but some people did go in. The only drawback for me was that the entire tour bus had only German tourists on it and I was the only english speaker so I couldn't chat to my fellow travellers. Other than that I enjoyed it.
edsyfalcon2 Taiwan
satisfactory. barbecue lunch, the amount is too small. both tour guide is nice and helpful
I signed up very last minute and the local operator did a good job being in touch and helping me get on the tour. The Spinalonga guide also did a nice job with the tour, on a very hot day. Overall, the experience was a good one. I found Spinalonga very interesting. I also enjoyed the swimming area and the town of Agios Nicolaus. The BBQ lunch was good, though it was challenging eating it on a crowded boat. One negative was that I felt unprepared for the late hour of the lunch (3:30) and therefore needed to find an ATM and get food in Agios Nicolaus. Since I joined the tour late, it's possible that information would have come to me if I'd had more time.
This was a great tour, you need 2 euro pp to pay for entry on spinalonga. The barbecue and swim at lunch were great , luckily we had good weather highly recommend
A fantastic tour. Not only is the scenery stunning, the history of Spinalonga likewise. Do not go to Heraklion and miss this tour. Well worth the day. Well organised and everything ran smoothly.
We were collected on time and the rep was (Anraka )very friendly .we enjoyed spectacular scenery on the drive .
The boat trip to the small island was enjoyable however I wouldn't recommend it for any one with mobility problems ! The BBQ lunch was very tasty, washed own with wine or juice .
Spinalonga was fabulous , I was disappointed that we only had one hour on the island , no where near enough time !
On the return coach journey the Russian rep NEVER stopped talking over the intercom in Russian , the English people aboard and a lot of the Russians got feb up of her non stop jabbering , we all were saying sushhhhhh !
I would recommend that longer was spent on spinalona, and less time on a very rocky beach !
Great service being picked up directly from my hotel. Slight confusion as you book with viator but the trip is run by another company. Lovely day out with really well informed tour guides. Shame that you only have 30mins to explore Spinalonga on your own, also be prepared for the masses of other tourists doing the same thing.
Julia G United Kingdom
We had a great day out and enjoyed the BBQ and swimming from the boat. The day was well planned.
The boat trip itself and tour of spinalonga were lovely, as was the lunch. The two and a half hour coach journey to get there and two more hours to get back made me question whether this was really worth the money, probably could have booked something better through my hotel to be honest.
Pick ups pro-longed length of time. Would have preferred option to have lunch in Elounda instead of boat/barbecue. Would be good to have option. Spinalonga guide was very informative.
Travel by coach was too long - inevitable when so many people to be picked up but it could be made clearer in the advertising that this would happen. The bay where we stopped for swimming was really unsuitable - stony and not particularly clean. There must surely be better places to stop?
The visit to Spinalonga was good, I would have liked to spend more time on the island than was given. Other than that it was a nice tour.

WASHINGTON – What makes your life full and complete?
A team of British researchers asked 2,000 people to come up with a list of 50 things that everyone should do in their lives at least once.
Money was top of mind for a lot of participants, especially for those who want to pay off debt, leave money behind for future generations, blow it all on a one- day shopping trip or stop worrying about it altogether.
Other "musts" on the list include being true to oneself and finding true love.
Some wanted to test the waters by dating someone "all wrong," having a one-night stand or indulging in an all-night drinking session.
The study showed that the list was mostly filled with experiences and achievements people wanted to have, rather than material goods.
Another thing the study highlighted? The average person had only completed about eight of the 50 items on the list. And only 23 percent of those polled felt they were living life to the fullest.

Something we love at CD Girls is girl on girl lesbian action, but this is not your normal everyday lesbian porn. Instead of just hiring girls to act a part, we encourge them to let us know who
want to work with and if they don't know, we find a fresh amateur or choose a girl based on their preferences, not ours. Our goal is real lesbian sex with HOT cute lesbians that we all love to see. It also helps that we have over $60,000 worth of sex toys in our studio to get the girls going. Over 10 years we have filmed some really amazing lesbian scenes, including Jenna Haze's 9 girl oil orgy and way too many more to list here.
This hot lesbian orgy includes Brooklyn , Cassie Young, Alesha, Katie Morgan, Renee Pornero, and Victoria Sin. There are dildos, tits and asses everywhere. The girls get down and dirty fucking each other with big dildos. They love cumming for each other!
Samantha Ryan and Karlie Montana are two lesbians that love getting off until they cum for each other. Karlie gets juicy wet as Samantha eats her from the back doggy style. Karlie returns the favor and makes Samantha suck on her fingers and taste herself. Yum!
There is plenty of pussy eating and juices flowing here. Natalia Cortez and Jade Star really get into their lesbian roles and get off together. Natalia gets pumped doggy style by a big cock sex machine while she nibbles on Jade's snatch.
These blond lesbian hotties can't get enough each other. Carlie Banks is in charge and Bella Starr is happy to be of service. Carlie fucks Bella doggy style and gives her a good pounding. Then Bella gets on top and fucks Carlie every which way before they both cum hard.
Karlie Montana fucks Samantha Ryan hard in this awesome lesbian session. Karlie is definitely the dominant one and makes Samantha suck on her lovely tits before she strokes her pussy. Karlie gets on her strap-on dick and gives Samantha the fucking she needs.
These babes are so hot for each other and can't wait to enjoy their wild lesbian love fest. Sandra, Megie, Jane and Gina share deep kisses and deeper pussy licking. They finger bang each other and fuck each other with their favorite dildos until everyone is dripping wet with cum.
These is a oily lesbian fuck fest with Jenna Haze running the show! There are sexy lubed up bodies rubbing all over each other. It's hard to keep tracks of all the tongues, tits and pussies. Everyone gets eaten out and fucked with a strap-on.
Sasha Knox and Charlie Laine in one of our best lesbian sex scenes we have ever shot. Charlie Laine fucks Sasha with a big blue dildo until she cums. Sasha pays Charlie back by chowing down on her pussy and fucking her until she cums
Trisha and Kimber are fucking and sucking each others pussy in this lesbian love fest. Trish eats Kimber's pussy like a pro. She fingers and bangs Kimber's pussy until she cums in her mouth.
These hot lesbians love eating pussy and they're here to prove it! Lela and Marlie get each other wet by licking each others titties and playing with their pussies. Now that they're juicy, they can get fucked with their big dildo. After that they get right into an exploding, orgasmic sixty-nine.
Nadia and Sasha know what they like and these lesbians get right down to business with their double headed dildo. They start off on their hands and knees facing away from each other, bumping asses as they fuck. They switch to another orgasmic position and fuck each other on their backs
These lesbians like to fuck each other every chance they get. After Cindy Dollar, Nicky Angel and Kay are done rubbing each other down, they eat some pussy. Once their pussies are nice and juicy they get to fucking each other with their favorite vibrators. Everyone gets off in this group session.
There's nothing like a lesbian orgy, especially one that includes eight girls. First, the girls get to know each other by rubbing each others tits. Then they start licking and sucking each others pussies. Finally, they pull out their dildos and vibrators and fuck each other until they all cum!
Sian and Bell have fucked around a lot as lesbians so they really know each others bodies. They love rubbing our pussies together. They got their vibrator and dildo and fucked and sucked all day long!
Renae and Chavon love hooking up as lesbian lovers. Chavons know what Renae likes and she loves cumming with a vibrator. She brought my trusty power wand and turned that pussy on. After getting soaked in juices they pulled out some other toys too.

Biggest Loser Nutritionist Cheryl Forberg, RD Approves Rachel's Dramatic Weight Loss
Nutritionist Cheryl Forberg, RD, has worked with contestants on "The Biggest Loser" since day 1. The James Beard–award winning chef and educator has been a behind-the-scenes fixture for almost all of the 15 seasons, coaching contestants on all things food—from portion control, to nutrient content, to to healthy recipes. In fact, she was in almost constant contact with season 15's controversial winner, Rachel Frederickson, according to an article Forberg just penned for the Huffington Post.
Here's what she had to say about Frederickson:
I am always asked if I've had favorite contestants over the years. Naturally I do, but I haven't singled anyone out. Rachel Frederickson would definitely be high on this list. From the beginning of the season, she has been positive, inquisitive and focused, in terms of learning and living the eating plan I teach.

How to Get Ready for This Week's Live Music Avalanche
It's another banner week for San Francisco music junkies. The list below only cracks the surface of what's to come. Other notable gigs include post-punk luminaries Swans (Regency Ballroom, Monday), Fiona Apple (The Warfield, Tuesday), Spencer Krug's side project Moonface (Independent, Wednesday) and legendary heartbreaker Bonnie Raitt (Greek Theatre, Friday). For my money though, these are the hottest tickets:
Blondie & Devo, The Warfield, Monday
Deborah Harry still has it, however elusive her it-factor is to pin down. Rarely has a singer been so closely connoted with a band name, and rarely does a band name conjure such a specific image of its lead singer. But we know she's still got it because she's still making music and spreading the dance-punk-pop gospel. Panic of Girls (2011) is still making the rounds, as is this iconic band of absurd import and historical significance.
Hot Chip & YACHT, Fox Theatre, Tuesday
The power electro coupling of Hot Chip and YACHT will make for one of the dance-ier and delightfully weird concert nights this fall. Hot Chip has been a mood-maker and -alterer since 2005 — hard to believe given their enthusiasm for innovative electronic nuance. The Brits' 2012 album In Our Heads is only the most recent example of the band manipulating the sounds of the studio (see the track "Shake a Fist" for an actual demonstration of their "sounds of the studio" meta game), which has as much spunk as The Warning's "Careful," a breakthrough mind-bender of an electro track worth checking out. As for Yacht, just get ready for the Portland quintet's PowerPoint presentation and put a grin on your face.
Silversun Pickups, Fox Theater, Wednesday
Don't mess with Silversun Pickups. Especially if you're Mitt Romney's campaign camp. The LA indie rockers-gone-big-time have earned the right to speak up over their 10-year career. The band has earned respect from those in the know with a sound compared to noise trailblazers My Bloody Valentine, and also by hitting the road extensively. And now there's one more reason to applaud their presence — bassist Nikki Monninger recently announced she's pregnant … and still touring. Respect.
Pretty Lights and DJ Shadow, Bill Graham, Friday
This'll be a doozy of a trip-hop, head-bopper of clusterf$&^. Count this one as just the latest in a string of house/electronic shows that have recently come to help define Bill Graham as a music venue. Anyone who saw Deadmau5 last year will attest to the venue's ability to graciously host a massive electro-dance production. Come for DJ Shadow's brainy samples and deep-cutting beats, and stay for the clubby dance wonder of Colorado's Pretty Lights. Bring your pumped-up kicks.
My Morning Jacket, Greek Theatre, Saturday
Jim James, Jim James, Jim James. It's all about the soulful howl of the charmed and charming My Morning Jacket lead singer. Just thinking about his voice echoing throughout Strawberry Canyon is enough to tell Ticketmaster thanks for the slap in the face, I'll gladly have another. James and company are known for playing long, thorough sets, and this nitpicky fan has never been disappointed.

Hello, I will be assisting you
Great thank you
You should check with the USPTO and search for this trademark (see this link). It is entirely possible that the Australian company registered an international trademark and in such case you would not be able to use it in the US. However if you cannot find the mark in the correct category (known as classes) then you would be free to use it provided no one else is using the name in the US for the same type of products
the class designation (category) is from 1 to 45. Each category represents different industries and products. Generally speaking the same mark can exist across different categories (generally) but not within the same category. So as you search for the name notice the categories of any marks that do show up and make sure that they are not in the category that otherwise would be appropriate for your products
When I search the USPTO TESS nothing comes up. Does that same system search for international trademarks as well?
It should but you should also search the WIPO database directly here
Nothing there either
The Australian company is "Lish nail creations" and they create nail polish and what not. We are opening a nail salon in the US called Lish nail salon.
are their products imported into the US?
We haven't seen them, but who knows.
Realitically, if they haven't trademarked in the US/internationally and they are not being imported to the US then you should be free to use the name. In fact if you plan to provide a service or sell a product interstate then you would qualify to trademark the name yourself. This may be a wise defensive move in the event the Australian company decides to come to the US
Thank you for the help.
you are welcome.

Peace Now, Labor MK and Geneva Initiative all say former Yesha Council director's plan to impose full Israeli sovereignty over 62% of West Bank will lead to binational state. 'It only makes occupation more comfortable,' leftist says
Moran Azulay
Published: 02.23.12, 22:39 / Israel News
Moran Azulay
Israel's Left called a new initiative
meant to conquer the prolonged stalemate plaguing the Israeli-Palestinian peace process
"hallucinatory" and warned that if adopted it may lead to a binational state.
Area C is currently under full Israeli security control.
Related articles:
"Bennett's plan is a failed attempt to cut corners and make the occupation more comfortable," Peace Now Director
Yariv Oppenheimer said Thursday. "The initiative is detached from reality; it belongs in the science fiction section of the library."
Oppenheimer added: "To the settlers' regret, there is no alternative to the two-state solution."
Bennett's plan also calls on Israel to naturalize some 50,000 Palestinians from the annexed territory.
The Peace Now director said the plan advances a solution that would "turn Israel
into a binational state and bring an end to the Zionist vision. Such a precedent would also cause the rest of the West Bank's Palestinians to demand citizenship.
"Bennett's initiative is immoral and undemocratic. It will only aggravate Israel's situation with regards to the Palestinian issue," according to Oppenheimer.
"Israel must choose between the option of becoming a binational state and the option of separating from the Palestinians on the basis of the two-state paradigm. Bennett's solution, which includes the unilateral annexation of settlements, would deepen the crisis between Israel and the international community and may bury the chance to separate from the Palestinians."
Knesset Member Eitan Cabel (Labor) said, "It appears that people within the Yesha Council have lost touch with reality and are drafting plans that are based on the coming of the messiah. This plan was drafted by people who seek a binational state and not the continued existence of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state."
The Geneva Initiative called Bennett's plan "hallucinatory" and said it was drawn up by "those who are leading Israel towards a binational state."

From a thousand miles from across the ocean, I have remained inspired by your books, from Ghana, and now in the United Kingdom, your words really come to me very practical and alive.

Wilkes-Barre police investigating stabbing
Wilkes-Barre police are investigating a stabbing Monday morning that left a man with puncture wounds to his arm and chest.
Police were called to 496 S. Franklin St. about 8:30 a.m. for a report of a stabbing in progress. While police were responding, an unknown woman called to report a woman had stabbed a man and was still in the South Franklin Street apartment building.
Officers arrived to find fresh blood in apartments No. 2 and 3 at the building, but no victim present.
Then about 9 a.m., police were called to 292 Carey Ave. for a report of a stabbing victim. They arrived to find Nygee Taylor of Parkview Circle.
Police say Taylor refused to answer any questions. He was taken to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township to be treated for puncture wounds on his right forearm, left ribs and right chest, police said.
The suspect was described as about 23 or 24 years old with a thin build and short hair in a ponytail. She was wearing gray sweatpants and a pink shirt.
This is not the first time Taylor has made the news. He was wounded in a shooting at the Sherman Hills Apartments in November that sent him to Geisinger in critical condition with a gunshot to the leg.
Police at the time said they did not believe the shooting was random because of Taylor's criminal history, which includes a conviction of selling crack cocaine to a police informant.

They're delicious, they don't look too dorky, and they won't get you drunk (or arrested.) Did we happen to mention that they're all virgins?

Guests will be treated to an experience of the grand stylish opulence of a majestic detached Georgian townhouse once belonging to a 19th Century 'celebrity socialite' Sir Robert Hopper Williamson who as Recorder of Newcastle and chancellor of Durham was amongst the elite of the North East and one of the most important men in the area. Sir Robert had invested heavily into his family home ensuring an eloquently designed interior and a spectacular exterior fitting to his social standing which still impresses today as it stands serenely amongst daily life on Clavering Place.
Roomzzz have gone to great lengths to channel the heady fine beauty of classic Georgian elegance and its combined grace and prestige of the era with subtle heritage touches from the area and lashings of carefully restored original features, including a grand stair and large Venetian staircase window which once looked out over extensive grounds and gardens.
Designers have combined historic significance with modern urban essentials and lifestyle 'must-haves' to create the ultimate hotel experience featuring 14 indulgent suites which brings back the golden age of exquisite elite living and focuses guests to concentrate on the carefree enjoyment of beautiful surrounds and luxuriating in extreme comfort.
Historic relics, curiosities and delights such as the original cast iron range, bank vaults and mysterious vaulted ceilings are found contained within the 14 suites whose layout follows the footprint of the original Friar House. Guests will experience top to toe luxe in suites complete with Apple technology, 'best night sleep' beds, state of the art kitchens and chic bathrooms cascading with the feel of opulence and exclusivity.
Head of Roomzzz Aparthotel UK Mark Walton comments, 'Roomzzz Newcastle City dramatically improves luxury hotel stays in the North – there are some fabulous hotels in the area but the transformation of Friar House really raises the game…This is exquisite elite luxury but with the Roomzzz affordability factor'.
Additional Facts on Friar House
Friar House is considered of great national and regional historic importance and enjoys a grade II listed status so with this in mind the legacy of the building sets the tone for future use.
The complete Newcastle City location will host 44 suites and apartments in the £5M development of the historic Friar House site which is due for completion 2013.
A portrait of Sir Robert Hopper Williamson, former owner and resident of Friar House hangs in The National Portrait Gallery, London

Collecting the Cup for Ironwood from left are Community Development Director Michael Brown, Mayor Kim Corcoran, Mayor Pro Tem Rick Semo, Clerk Karen Gullan and City Manager Scott Erickson. For more photos go here.DETROIT, Michigan – The community of Ironwood, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, was honored with the Michigan Municipal League's 2013 Community Excellence Award on Sept. 20, 2013, at the League's Annual Convention in Detroit.
The peer-nominated Community Excellence Award (CEA), affectionately called "The Race for the Cup," was started by the League in 2007 to recognize innovative solutions taking place in Michigan's cities, villages and urban townships. It's the highest and most prestigious award bestowed by the statewide League.The city of Ironwood's placemaking effort is centered on the revitalization of a railroad depot into a park. The plan is to merge city blocks, add a pavilion, playground equipment, landscaping, volleyball courts, and other amenities in an effort to promote health, history, and recreation. The park will also serve as a trailhead for non-motorized and motorized trails crossing the region.Ironwood Mayor Kim Corcoran accepted the award, which includes a large trophy and statewide recognition, on the city's behalf. In the seven-year history of the CEA competition, Ironwood is the first recipient from the state's Upper Peninsula, which encompasses the League's Region 7. Ironwood is located on the Michigan-Wisconsin border in the western portion of the state's U.P."I was very happily surprised for our community to win the Cup," Corcoran said. "I was thinking we were a small community and I didn't know if we stood a chance on getting this, but it's a very big deal for us. This award helps put us on the map – from the PR we get from this and for our project. It shows what our community has to offer. We believe the positive recognition of receiving this award will increase awareness of the great things that Ironwood and the U.P. have to offer."Ironwood competed for the statewide title against finalists from the League's six other regions: Region 1 Fenton, Holly, & Linden's Shiawassee River Heritage Water Trail; Region 2 St. Joseph's Silver Beach development; Region 3 Belding's community garden; Region 4 DeWitt's Community Showcase; Region 5 Imlay City's SEED Economic Gardening program; and Region 6 Rogers City's Placemaking: Dancin' Downtown.Summaries of the seven finalist projects are pasted below and can be found online here.For past CEA winners, click here.

I am very pleased with this case. It does get heavy to carry or long periods, so my suggestion is finding a roller wheeler to move it long distances. I rested it on top of my luggage to transport it around in the airport. Glad I bought this.

Lewis Burwell "Chesty" Puller
Lieutenant General Lewis "Chesty" Puller was an officer
in the United States Marine Corps and the most decorated
Marine in Corps history. He is the only marine to have
earned five Navy Crosses, the United States Navy's
second highest decoration after the Medal of Honor. In
his career, he fought guerillas in Haiti and in
Nicaragua and participated in some of the bloodiest
battles of World War II and the Korean War. He retired
from the Corps in 1955.
Puller who earned the nickname inspired by his barrel
chest was born in West Point Virginia. He had a second
cousin in the United States Army General George S
Patton. His grandfather died fighting in the Civil War
for the Confederacy and his heroes as a child were
Stonewall Jackson and Robert E Lee. He graduated high
school with a mediocre record then enrolled at the
Virginia Military Institute in 1917. After a year he
dropped out and enlisted in the Marine Corp. At that
time there was a rapid increase in the Corps which meant
Puller was given a commission and he was sent to fight
in Haiti and World War I ended before he could make it
to France.
He was appointed to the rank of Second Lieutenant in the
reserves on June 16 1919 but following World War I the
corps was being reduced and he was placed on inactive
status on the 26th of that month. He re-enlisted in the
Marine Corps the same year and as an enlisted man he saw
action in Haiti with the Gendarmerie d'Haiti which had a
working treaty with the United States. He participated
in over forty engagements during the five years against
the Caco Rebels. March of 1924 he returned to the States
and was once again commissioned as a Second Lieutenant.
In 1928 Puller was assigned to the Nicaraguan National
Guard detachment where he earned his first Navy Cross.
He returned to the states in 1930 and completed the
Company Officers Course which was a year long at Fort
Benning then returned to Nicaragua to earn his second
Navy Cross for leading five successive engagements
against superior numbers of armed bandit forces. After
Nicaragua he was assigned to the American Legation in
Beijing, China commanding a unit of Chinese Marines. He
then went on to serve aboard the USS Augusta, a cruiser
serving in the Asiatic Fleet.
Major Puller returned to the US on August 28th 1941 and
after a shore leave he was given command of the 1st
Battalion 7th Marines of the 1st Marine Division then
stationed at New River which would later be known as
Camp Lejeune. The 7th Marines formed the nucleus of the
newly created 3rd Marine Brigade and arrived to defend
Samoa on May 8th 1942. They were later redeployed from
3rd Marine Brigade and they left Samoa on September 4
1942 and rejoined the 1st Division on Guadalcanal on
September 18 1942. Shortly after arriving at Guadalcanal
he led his battalion in the fierce action along the
Matanikau in which his quick thinking saved his three
companies from destruction. In the action his companies
were surrounded and cut off by a larger Japanese force.
He ran to the shore and signaled a US Navy destroyer,
then directed the gunfire to provide support while
landing craft pulled his marines out of their precarious
He earned his third Navy cross on the night of October
24-25th 1942 when his unit was the only American unit
defending Henderson Field against a regiment strength
Japanese force. His unit sustained 70 casualties while
the Japanese suffered over 1400 KIAs and his battalion
held the airfield. While serving on Guadalcanal he was
shot twice by a sniper and wounded in three different
places by shrapnel and he was awarded the Purple Heart.
He earned his fourth Navy Cross for overall performance
of duty between December 26th 1943 and January 19th 1944
when the commanding officers of the 3rd Battalion 7th
Marines and later the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines were
knocked out of action he assumed temporary command of
both units. In each instance while under heavy mortar
and machine gun fire he expertly reorganized the
battalions and led successful attacks against heavily
fortified Japanese defensive positions. In February 1944
he was promoted to Colonel and named commander of the
1st Marine Regiment. He would lead this unit in the
battle of Peleliu, one of the bloodiest battles in
Marine Corps history in Sept and Oct 1944. In November
1944 he was named executive officer and later Commander
of the Infantry Training Regiment at Camp Lejeune. After
the war he was made director of the 8th Reserve District
in New Orleans and later commanded the Marine Barracks
at Pearl Harbor.
With the outbreak of the Korean Conflict he was once
again assigned commander of the 1st Marine Regiment
which made the landing at Inchon on September 15th 1950.
He earned his 5th Navy Cross for action during the
Battle of the Chosin Reservoir. It was during that
battle that he made the famous quote, "We've been
looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally
found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things." He
was promoted to Brigadier General and was assigned duty
as assistant division commander of the 1st Marine
division. On Feb. 24th his superior Major General O.P
Smith was transferred to command the IX Corps very
hastily when the Army commander Major General Moore was
killed. This left Puller in command of the 1st Marine
division. He also knew the army would not allow General
Smith, a Marine, to command a unit that included army
troops. When he was ordered to begin the last phase of
Operation Killer, Puller made the best of the
opportunity by skillfully leading the 1st Marine
Division and achieving its objectives. General Smith
returned on March 5th and Puller would serve as ADC
until he completed his tour of duty and returned to the
United States on May 20th 1951. Puller subsequently
received promotions to Major and Lieutenant General and
served in various command capacities until his
retirement due to health reasons on November 1st 1955.
In 1965 General Puller requested to be reinstated in the
Corps so that he could see action in the Vietnam War but
the request was denied on the basis of his age. He died
on October 11th 1971. He is buried in Christchurch
Parish Cemetery on the southeast side of Christchurch
School off Highway 33(also called "General Puller
Highway") in Christchurch Virginia. His widow Virginia
died in 2006 at the age of 97 and is buried next to him.
While the exact counts of Puller's total number of
decorations vary from source to source the accepted
number of 52 separate, subsequent, and foreign awards is
commonplace. The reason for difficulty in assigning an
exact total comes from the variety of foreign
decorations that each carry different protocols in
regard to wear and display. His military decorations are
the Navy Cross, Distinguished Service Cross, Silver
Star, Legions of Merit, Bronze Star, Air Medal, Purple
Heart, Presidential Unit Citation, Marine Corps Good
Conduct Medal, Marine Corps Expeditionary Medal, World
War I Victory Medal, Haitian Campaign Medal, Second
Nicaraguan Campaign Medal, China Service Medal, American
Defense Service Medal, American Campaign Medal,
Asiatic-Pacific Campaign Medal, World War II Victory
Medal, Nation Defense Service Medal, Korean War Service
Medal. He received the following awards by non-U.S.
governments-Haitian Medaille Militaire, Nicaraguan
Presidential Medal of Merit with Diploma, Nicaraguan
Cross for Valor with Diploma, Republic of Korea Ulchi
Medal with Gold Star, Chinese Order of the Cloud and
Banner, Korea Presidential Unit Citation with bronze
star, and United Nations Service Medal, Korea.
Chesty Puller remains a well Known figure in Marine
Corps folklore with both true and exaggerated tales of
his experiences being constantly recounted in the U.S.
Marine Corps. A common incantation in the tradition of
the Marine Corp is to end one's day with the declaration
, "Good night Chesty, wherever you are!" In boot camp
and OCS, Marines chant "It was good for Chesty
Puller/And it's good enough for me"- Chesty is symbolic
of the esprit de corps of the Marines. While on duty in
Hawaii and inspecting the armory, Puller fined himself
for discharging a weapon in an unsafe manner. Some of
his quotes are "All right they're on our left, they're
on our right, they're in the front of us, they're behind
us… they can't get away this time." "Hit hard, hit fast,
hit often" "You don't hurt 'em if you don't hit 'em"
"We're surrounded. That simplifies our problem of
getting to these people and killing them"

The YouTube singer attempts to break new ground with a song about a whole different day of the week
Rebecca Black, who hit the scene as Best New Artist To Hate of 2011 with viral hit "Friday," is finally back with a followup – the imaginatively titled "Saturday."
Black's new song is actually leaps and bounds more sonically sophisticated than the widely panned nonsense lyrics and limited range of freshman "Friday." The weekend fare also tackles more mature themes – Black and her now 16-year-old friends are "goin' party all night," compared to her prepubescent priority to consume cereal in "Friday."
Also Read: Rebecca Black's 'Friday' Producer Has a New Nonsense Jam: 'Chinese Food' (Video)
The video for Saturday is filled with comic references to Black's debut, which she finally admitted, in honor of Black Friday (see what she did there?), was a total mess. In fact, one of the first lyrics in "Saturday" is, "Trying to get Friday out of my head." In more ways than one, we imagine.
Watch the video and see how many references you can spot. Also, keep your eyes peeled for a Miley Cyrus twerk-alike!

This Thursday, just a few scant weeks after Sundance has rolled up its red carpet, we'll be plunging into Europe's first major festival. The Berlin Film Festival, aka the Berlinale, has (like everything else) a lower profile than Cannes and perhaps a less glamorous aura than Venice. But, in a way, that counts toward its specific identity: with the European Film Market (which is one of the three biggest in the world) and the Talent Campus, a major program of workshops and masterclasses attended by students and professionals alike, from all disciplines, from all over the world, the Berlinale feels more businesslike and no-nonsense, less seduced by the glitz of the industry than by the actual films, and by fostering the talents that make them. And this reputation in turn has lured quite a few high-profile films and guests in recent years, meaning that, as always, we find ourselves looking forward to an eclectic mix of new movies from auteurs we already admire, totally left-field and obscure choices that have caught our eye for one reason or another, as well as a couple of bona-fide glitzy, massive films that have figured highly on our previous Most Anticipated lists.
Berlin does tend to feature the European premieres of a lot of the films we've seen and reviewed at Sundance, like "Boyhood," "Calvary" and "20000 Days on Earth" among many others, so we're not going to include any of those on our list, and additionally, a big one for those of us attending will be a showing of "Snowpiercer," for which we'll be gnawing our own arms off for a ticket if necessary. However, again, we've already reviewed that, so won't list it here. Those titles aside, here, in no particular order, are our 10 most anticipated films of the 2014 Berlinale, heavily slanted toward those we believe have at least a chance of seeing a stateside release.
"The Grand Budapest Hotel"
Synopsis: In a legendary hotel in a fictional European country between the wars, a young lobby boy falls under the spell of a famous concierge, amid plots of murder, art theft and squabbling families.
Why it's anticipated: So, yep, after what seems like a forever of running trailers, clips, posters, news and other tidbits, Wes Anderson's latest film is finally available for our eyes the day after tomorrow. As the opening film of the 2014 Berlinale, it offers a mix of indie/arthouse credibility, commercial crossover appeal, and a ridiculously stacked cast, all of whom will be in attendance—so in many ways it's the perfect film to kick off a festival. We ourselves rated it our third most anticipated film of the year, not least citing the cast, saying, "the Anderson all-stars have been assembled, with Ralph Fiennes leading a cast that includes veterans like Bill Murray, Jason Schwartzman, Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton and Owen Wilson, and newcomers Saoirse Ronan, Jude Law, Lea Seydoux, Mathieu Amalric and F. Murray Abraham, among many others." But mainly, our tongues are hanging out for this one because we love Anderson, thought his last film, "Moonrise Kingdom" was an absolute treat, and completely dig the manic yet as-ever-meticulous energy that the early promotional materials have shown. In fact, just come on, let it be Thursday already.
"Nymphomaniac: Vol. 1"
Synopsis: A self-diagnosed nymphomaniac recounts her entire sexual life to the kindly bachelor who finds her beaten in an alleyway and tends to her wounds.
Why It's Anticipated: Any new film from ex-enfant terrible and current provocateur extraordinaire Lars Von Trier is always going to pique our interest. But here he seems to be giving full rein to his most sensationalist tendencies, which makes us very intrigued to see how much his intelligence (a quality he's rarely given enough credit for) will enable him to avoid the obvious pitfalls of such a potentially exploitative subject—if at all. And certainly the eclectic, interesting ensemble cast is also a draw, featuring Charlotte Gainsbourg, Von Trier regular Stellan Skarsgård, Uma Thurman, Christian Slater, Jamie Bell, Shia LaBoeuf, Udo Kier, Connie Nielsen and newcomer Stacy Martin. Adding to the rather confusing buzz surrounding the picture is that it's broken into two parts, and each of those two parts also have two different versions, the uncut, longer "director's cut" and a shortened theatrical version. While the shorter theatrical cut of Volume 1 has been out in some territories in Europe since Christmas, and recently screened as the secret film at Sundance, this will be the premiere of the longer cut of Volume 1, and so we're glad we've kept our powder dry for it.
"The Two Faces of January"
Synopsis: A con artist, his wife, and a stranger try to flee a foreign country after one of them is caught up in the murder of a police officer.
Why It's Anticipated: Based on the novel by Patricia Highsmith (who also wrote the books that inspired "Strangers On a Train," "The Talented Mr. Ripley" and Wim Wenders' "The American Friend") we had this one pegged as a possible TIFF release on our Most Anticipated of 2014 list (on which it nestles at no. 83). But that was really a shot in the dark as this has been a kind of unknown quantity since it reportedly wrapped back in 2012. That fact does give us some pause, but as the directorial debut of screenwriter Hossein Amini, whose writing career encompasses highs and potential highs like "Drive," and the slated John Le Carre adaptation "Our Kind of Traitor," but also dross like "Snow White and the Huntsman" and "47 Ronin," we're at the very least curious. And curiosity is nudged up to anticipation by the cast: Viggo Mortensen, who was absent from our screens in 2013, our beloved Llewyn Davis himself Oscar Isaac, and Kirsten Dunst all conspire to make this an appealing package, especially if any justice at all has been done to the chilly psychological thrillerishness of Highsmith's book.

Hilary Duff: Her New Life As A Single Mom And Her New Kim Kardashian Look (Photos)Joanna Mazewski
Hilary Duff might have just announced that she is separating from her husband of three years, Mike Comrie, but it doesn't look like she's slowing down her life one bit. Instead, the celebrity mom, singer and actress is moving on in style as she's living her life everyday like anyone her age would. Well, expect for the fact that she's a famous Hollywood single mom now!
But the one thing I can't get over is that Hilary might or might not look like she's morphing into Kim Kardashian. The Texan beauty shared a pic of her new eyebrows and oh my, does she look like Kimmy Cakes! It's probably not intentional, but either way Hilary still looks incredibly gorgeous.
Take a look at our photo gallery below of Hilary's most recent Instagram pics and let us know what you think. Is there a chance that she and Mike might still get back together again? Here's hoping!

How to Pack for a Fire Evacuation
Fire bags are useful, hopefully unnecessary, but good to have. Here is what to pack.
This article has been tagged as a stub.
That means it's off to a good start, but still has room to grow into a more helpful resource. Until the article reaches its full potential, it will be hidden from search results. Can you help it flourish? If you think the article offers complete and accurate instructions, feel free to remove this tag.
1Decide what bag you are going to use. Large, week camping rucksacks are a good choice.
2Decide what to pack. Some absolute mandatory items are:
- A pair of shoes and socks. Enough for one for every person who will use the bag. Keep up to date with sizing as a pair of size 13 child shoes will be of no use to a 15 year old (unless they are very small).
- Food. Try to include as many energy bars as possible, as many tins as possible, some dried food etc.
- A tin opener. Or two, hopefully, just in case.
- A bottle opener. If you decide to take bottles of drinks or food, you will need one.
- Water purification tablets. If you can't get fresh, clean water, these will be useful.
- A few empty, clean jars. To keep any fresh water or anything else in.
- Sanitary items. A toothbrush, toothpaste, bar of soap/bottle of liquid soap, a flannel or two, a small bottle of water and a few packets of tissues.
- Tampons/pads. You will need them if there is a fire.
- Prized possessions. If there is a fire, you may lose them. You don't want to lose your wedding photos or your children's baby photos now, do you?
- Address book. If there is a bad fire, you will need somewhere to go.
- Money. You will probably need £100 - £250 if your home is destroyed to find somewhere to live.
- Clothes. At least one outfit for each person who is going to use it. Pack layers.
- Medication. Any medication you need daily, along with plasters, bandages etc.
- Sewing kit. To repair clothes that you are wearing at the time.
- ID card/identification via other ways.
3Put anything that may get wet/burned place in a waterproof, heatproof container.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Make plans beforehand with someone that if either of you have a fire, you will stay with the other family.
- Don't feel bad about going crazy with what you pack. You need as much as possible if you need to start a new life.

Parents, from high school to college: here's what your high school student needs during the transition to college
Now that your student is done celebrating high school graduation and ready to settle into summer, it's the best time to gather important information from high school, before it gets forgotten in the bustle of back-to-school excitement. Grab a folder – or a flash drive for the computer – and save the following items for the fall:
- Previous college credit: Before registering for fall classes, students must provide the university with all college and dual credit information. Save paperwork from previous credits or AP classes, and contact the university to see what they need. Most schools need an official transcript if your student completed credits at another school, and if he/she received an AP credit by exam, those results must also be sent to the university. Have your student contact the high school to request official transcripts, and request unofficial transcripts for your own records. If the official transcripts come to you, be sure not to open the envelopes, and forward them to the university.
- High school work: Hopefully, your student didn't throw his senior year's work in the air, singing, "School's out for summer!" and leave it behind, never to look back. Important papers, tests and notes can come in handy – especially for overwhelmed freshmen taking college courses, possibly learning how to study for the first time. Professors don't take valuable class time to review what students learned in high school, so students should do that on their own.
- Scholarship donor contact information: If your student received a scholarship or grant to attend college, a big "thank you" is in order. Donors, alumnae, philanthropists and even corporations that provide college scholarships love to hear how their money is used. Sending a formal letter after the first semester is a great way to thank them for their contribution and explain how the first semester went. Cultivating those relationships can be the best tactic to ensure more scholarship money, if they make ongoing gifts.
- Teacher and coach contact information: Many high school seniors leave a small pond feeling like a big fish – and the first few weeks in college can be overwhelming. If your student had a special relationship with a teacher, coach or mentor, that doesn't have to end when he/she moves on to different waters. An e-mail or phone call from your student to a trusted adult can be encouraging and provide them with support beyond their parents, and thank you notes go a long way to show appreciation for teachers who have made an impact. Keeping up with these relationships is important, because past teachers can be a good reference for students looking for on-campus jobs or internships.

New Android apps worth downloading: Paper Monsters, LinkedIn update, Deal Drop
Professional social network app LinkedIn's update makes editing user profiles easier, so it kicks off this week's apps worth downloading. Following it is Deal Drop, a daily deal app that helps customers find savings for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and Paper Monsters, a fun platformer with a great art style.
Paper Monsters ($0.99)
What's it about? A side-scrolling platformer, Paper Monsters has a papercraft look, taking players through a fantastical world filled with, as you might guess, paper monsters.
What's cool? Although its graphics are beautiful and has a quality soundtrack, as well as touch on a whimsical tone throughout, Paper Monsters really excels at being a quality platformer. It's just fun to play, packing lots of content, hidden secrets, and levels that mix up the formula by adding swimming and flying through power-ups.
Who's it for? If you like platformers, you'll like this. The fantastical papercraft art style doesn't hurt, either.
What's it like? Wind-up Knight has a similar art style and feel, and for a tougher, somewhat bloodier platforming, try League of Evil.
LinkedIn update (Free)
What's it about? The app of the social network for professionals, LinkedIn lets users access their profiles, interact with people they're following and former co-workers, and make recommendations about other users' skills to help employers find them, and vice versa.
What's cool? LinkedIn's new update gives users a few new capabilities for interacting with others. For one, you can now update and alter your profile on the fly through the app, which lets you get the most accurate information available at a faster rate. The app also adds push notifications, some general improvements, and it carries all the social networking capabilities you'd expect, like searching for other users, connecting with them, and seeing their updates and messages.
Who's it for? Users of LinkedIn should probably check out the app as well, because if you use the social network, this is a great way to stay connected at all times.
What's it like? Another social networking app that's great for networking is Sonar: Friends Nearby, which helps you find people you know on the Internet when together in a real-life location, like a convention. You can also use Bump to exchange contact information when meeting new people.
Deal Drop – Track Daily Deals (Free)
What's it about? The end of this week has some of the busiest shopping days of the year, but Deal Drop can prepare you for Cyber Monday and Black Friday madness by showing you daily deals from all over the Internet.
What's cool? Deal Drop aggregates tons of national and local deals from a bunch of different stores, and updates frequently with new deals from all over. That's good, because as the extremely popular online shopping day Cyber Monday approaches, more and more deals will become available to savvy Internet shoppers. Deal Drop focuses specifically on daily deals for a number of sites, but it finds lots of great things on sale and should be useful in planning your shopping after Thanksgiving.
Who's it for? If you're planning to take to the Internet for Cyber Monday and actual shops on Black Friday, consider the companionship of Deal Drop.
What's it like? LivingSocial and Groupon are also similar in their focus on short-term deals, and you'll find more Cyber Monday information with TGI Cyber Monday.

Blast From The Past: "Unemployment Rate With And Without The Recovery Plan"
Putting today's 7.2% unemployment rate (which is actually over 11% if using an accurate labor participation rate), here is the chart that puts it into perspective courtesy of the an "analysis" by Christina Romer and Jared Bernstein titled "The Job Impact of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Plan" from January 10, 2009. Oh yes, the ARRA did pass.
The chart, and the sheer and recurring economist idiocy, is self-explanatory

It's all the "Shovel Ready" jobs
"Mission Accomplished."
"Lies, damned lies, and statistics"
Obama lies
His lies are damned
and he uses statistics to promote the BIG LIE..... Obama Loves You (and by the way he cummed in your mouth)
Even that dismal chart is optimistic. Real unemployment, the u-6, shows how poorly the country has "recovered."
Even the U6 is optimistic. It doesn't count people who are "out of work, but not unemployed," which is, at a bare minimum, 5 million people who have no job but are not counted as part of the labor force, even though they would actually like a job under normal circumstances.
This graph is all fine and dandy, but why doesn't the "unemployment rate" in red actually include those people who have been unemployed longer than 52-weeks?
Big Brother doesn't count them as unemployed? Oh crap, I better learn Newspeak better. Last time I looked at the definition of unemployed, it meant "had no employment" ... I guess that word has been redefined.
COSTELLO: I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America. ABBOTT: Good Subject. Terrible Times. It's 8.3%. COSTELLO: That many people are out of work? ABBOTT: No, that's 16%. COSTELLO: You just said 8.3%. ABBOTT: 8.3% Unemployed. COSTELLO: Right 8.3% out of work. ABBOTT: No, that's 16%. COSTELLO: Okay, so it's 16% unemployed. ABBOTT: No, that's 8.3%… COSTELLO: WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 8.3% or 16%? ABBOTT: 8.3% are unemployed. 16% are out of work. COSTELLO: IF you are out of work you are unemployed. ABBOTT: No, you can't count the "Out of Work" as the unemployed. You have to look for work to be unemployed. COSTELLO: BUT THEY ARE OUT OF WORK!!! ABBOTT: No, you miss my point. COSTELLO: What point? ABBOTT: Someone who doesn't look for work, can't be counted with those who look for work. It wouldn't be fair. COSTELLO: To who? ABBOTT: The unemployed. COSTELLO: But they are ALL out of work. ABBOTT: No, the unemployed are actively looking for work… Those who are out of work stopped looking. They gave up and if you give up, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed. COSTELLO: So if you're off the unemployment rolls, that would count as less unemployment? ABBOTT: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely! COSTELLO: The unemployment just goes down because you don't look for work? ABBOTT: Absolutely it goes down. That's how you get to 8.3%. Otherwise it would be 16%. You don't want to read about 16% unemployment do ya? COSTELLO: That would be frightening. ABBOTT: Absolutely. COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means there are two ways to bring down the unemployment number? ABBOTT: Two ways is correct. COSTELLO: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job? ABBOTT: Correct. COSTELLO: And unemployment can also go down if you stop looking for a job?
originally on jsmineset
How about those who have left the work force and joined the ranks of the "disabled" on social security?
A shrinking work force, phoney accounting gimmicks, exploding SNAP (food stamps) program, lower wages, vastly more part-time workers, fewer manufacturing jobs and more service jobs, large governmental (all levels) workforce, fewer small business hires, high cost of healthcare, taxation without representation, etc. etc.
Yet another example of failed Keynesian theories/wet dreams. Their formulas don't work and can never work. Of course they will always say, 'well it would have been worse', or 'if we only printed moar'. There was a good analysis of Romer's failure either on mises.org or an Austrian econ podcast, trying to find it but don't remember where I heard it.
Looks like it was shovel ready prognosticating.
The only thing that was shoveled was the $5 trillion into the Friends-of-Barry slush fund.
Economic numbers from the Gubbermint...
Aren't worth a bucket of warm spit!
Worth even less!
Eventually, we will have 0% unemployment and 0% employment.
Ah, Christina- just as useless as ever.....
Romer and Bernstein. Two bigger mouthpiece clowns never existed.
Shadowstats has unemployment increasing from 2009 and now at 23%:
Re: Shadowstats has unemployment increasing from 2009 and now at 23%:
1 of 4 people looking for a job? Hmmm...
No, idiot --- 1 out of 4 Americans are out of work, or more precisely, simply not participating in the work force, for whatever reason.
Why do you assume that all (or even most) of them are actually looking for work? Most are probably not, for various reasons (satisfied with the welfare lifestyle, discouraged, living in the underground economy, etc.).
Honey Don't
They'll undoubtedly win a Nobel for this. Top notch economic forecasting right here folks. Yep, economics is a science all right.
Can you imagine the blame games and lies they would have been able to tell by saying look at what the chart says we should have used the recovery plan !!!!!!
That chart is a CLASSIC
What they will say is "OK...our simulation was off...translate the recovery plan curve to the actual and move the other curve up also...it would have been much worse without the recovery plan."
Obviously mo' money was the answer and we missed that golden opportunity to spend our way to lower unemployment.
Just another obama-nation served up by the community organizer in chief and his always willing to spend congress. So what's the multiplier on that money? -3X?
No problem. All the BLS has to do is one of those one time adjustmenets that they are now so famous for to bring the offical U3 rate in line with the projections and all will be well in Propaganda Land.
Since American's can analyze with more than twenty minutes of data...?...
If Republicans weren't making stinkies and funnies everyone would have jobs and the obamacare exchanges would be working
See what all this austerity is doing to us.
We need Krugman's Anti Space Alien defense shield, and we need it NOW!
Looks like we need a new recovery plan.
The reason why we're screwed is the massive imbalance caused by Wall Street. Shares of overpriced corporations selling overpriced goods. I don't want to get into off-shoring vs homegrown labor, but the insane inflated price of goods to help support Wall Street has got to stop.
Everything you buy is priced at least 50% higher than it should be. Retail margins are insane. $35 retail items are produced for $.50 and people are expected to pay $35.
Crocs cost less than $.50 a pair to produce, and retail for $38. EVA blow molded shoes aren't expensive, there is virtually no labor to produce them, yet they sell for more at retail than hand sewn shoes that have over 100 components in them. Why? So Crocs can go long on margin and see their share price increase.
Anyone that buys a pair of Crocs for $38 is an idiot.
But it goes across nearly every sector. $649 for an iPhone that cost $80 to assemble in a Foxconn factory. Sure Apple is entitled to a profit, but $570 on a single unit? But people are dumb and line up to buy their products.
What is amazing to me is that you can buy a full PC at retail for $299 with more power than any new cell phone or tablet. Complete with a Windows operating system that costs the PC company $50 to sell you the license. I've tried to buy components to make a similar PC for less money, but it is impossible.
Yeah, people say supply and demand increases the price. I say stupidity increases the price. Most consumers have no idea what it actually costs to produce 99% of what they buy. When Americans made things, a lot of people knew what it cost. If someone tried to sell them a product for $100 that cost $10 to make, nobody would buy it because they would know they're getting ripped off. If the majority of Americans knew their $100 coffee machine cost $6 to manufacture, would they still pay $100 for it?
Go on Alibaba sometime and see what your favorite retail products cost publicly traded marketing corporations like Nike to buy. Nike doesn't own a single factory. Everything they buy comes from an Asian factory bidding for a job. You can buy a shoe of the same quality, built in the same factory as a $150 Nike for $12. TWELVE DOLLARS and that is international wholesale cost, not actual production cost.
When you go to a Nike store and hand them $150 for a pair of must have shoes, you are handing Nike close to $130 just for the privilege of buying a shoe from them. So Nike stock can go up. Is that swoosh really worth overpaying by $100? The shoes could retail for $50 an still leave a ton of profit for Nike.
All you have to do is stop buying overpriced crap. You can buy jeans that match the quality of $100 Levi's, because they are made in the same Chinese factory, for $8 a pair with a minimum order quantity of 20. That's $160 and you'll have twenty pairs. Sure they won't have a Levi's button, but if you're really desperate you can steal the extra button from a pair at the store and sew it on.
I bought my wife her wedding dress from an overseas factory. It was custom tailored and cost me $120 with $60 for shipping. $180 total and it was made by the same company that makes dresses for most of the US stores. In the store her dress retailed for $3500. When I told her I could get it for less than $200 she laughed. I told her to go look where the dresses at David's Bridal are made. She came back and said, "All China, every single one is made in China." So why should I give David's Bridal $3300 for the privilege of selling me a dress?
If everybody went and did this what would happen to the total retail sales in western nations?
A fraction of what it is now.
Why would it not be permitted?
In playing the inflate / deflate game the only argument ever presented to justify the level of debt is based on the size of the existing econmy and that includes the falsely inflated existing values.
Evil. Idiots. Or both.
And the really exciting part about the unemployment rate delta on the chart is the fact that it was accomplished without creating a single job. Well done Washington!!!!
You actually believe the RED line?
We need to task the government with a goal of wrecking the economy...
Unemployment percentage figure is a figment of manipulation and subject to many adjustments/interpretations. Simply said, it's a complete lie.
The faster you fall behind, the more time you have to catch up.
The first rule of academic, elitist egotism is, no tenured, socio-economic theoretician will EVER pay a personal price for being completely upside-down wrong with the publics money.
They'll just go back to the blackboard where other like-minded idiots can stroke their battered ego's for a few years until they're ready to try it all again.
Did anyone include the effect of a totally collapsed banking system held in suspended animation via printed-voodoo and mark-to-make-believe accounting within any of these <ahem> 'modelling' exercises?
Then what real-world veracity has any of this extremely dubious and facetious pap?

We don't even know if this is a real Banksy, but he is always at his best when he is going after authority. Just in time for the Jubilee Celebration and the Queen's 60 years of Queenhood, Banksy did a a little High Street London child labor vibe for us all to work with. We like it.
