After two decades of stable inflation in the U.S., many investors have relaxed their vigilance – even though unanticipated inflation can significantly harm investment returns. Today, as long-term inflationary risks loom, we believe investors may benefit from reassessing their portfolios' sensitivity to inflation. PIMCO has designed the Inflation Response Multi-Asset Strategy (IRMAS) to enhance portfolio responsiveness to inflation.
The strategy seeks to take advantage of inflation and improve real (inflation-adjusted) returns. It aims to do this by incorporating asset classes that have historically responded well to inflation, especially to unanticipated increases, while tactically managing for what is causing inflation and how inflation is priced into each asset class. All asset classes already have some degree of inflation expectation built into their prices, and changes in those expectations can influence asset prices.
We have found that over the last 40 years, both stocks and bonds have tended to respond negatively to inflation surprises – inflation in excess of what is already priced in and anticipated. This is especially relevant today because we see the long-term risk of inflation increasing, but the market has not yet priced in higher inflation expectations. As a result, we believe this is a good time to incorporate inflation hedging and realign the inflation sensitivity of portfolios.
Risks of higher inflation Inflation in the U.S., as measured by the Consumer Price Index or CPI (which estimates the average change in prices for a basket of goods and services), averaged a fairly benign 2.5% in the two decades from September 1992 through September 2012. However, PIMCO expects U.S. inflation to trend higher over the next three to five years, mainly due to three forces:
Inflation-sensitive asset classes PIMCO's Inflation Response Multi-Asset Strategy incorporates five critical asset classes that have historically responded positively over different time frames to inflation and inflation surprises (as shown in Figure 1).
(For more details on how various asset classes respond in different inflationary environments, including periods of high inflation and inflation surprises, please see "Inflation Regime Shifts: Implications for Asset Allocation," by Nicholas Johnson and Sébastien Page.)
Bonds and stocks, on the other hand, have historically responded negatively to surprises in inflation. Bond prices tend to fall because inflation erodes the value of investments with a fixed income, or yield; it is also associated with rising interest rates. In theory, bonds with yields linked to short-term interest rates, such as Treasury bills, could move in tandem with inflation, but with the Fed pegging short-term rates near zero since late 2008 and likely to hold rates there through 2015, short-term instruments have become generally unresponsive to inflation.
The negative relationship between equities and inflation surprises may not seem as intuitive. Think of equities as a discounted stream of future cash flows. When inflation rises, the discount rate applied to those cash flows rises, which lowers their current value. Higher interest rates also increase the cost of capital to corporations, and higher inflation means that earnings may be overstated since they depreciate historical cost rather than replacement cost of assets. While equities can serve many critical investment objectives (such as higher return potential), they tend to leave an investor with a negative inflation beta. However, an active equity manager can help by carefully focusing on companies with enough pricing power to counter the negative impact of higher inflation.
Measuring asset class sensitivity to inflation By thoughtfully combining assets – considering risk, return, inflation sensitivity and the contributing factors of inflation – PIMCO developed the Inflation Response Index (Bloomberg ticker: INFNRSPN). This index is composed of 45% TIPS, 20% commodities, 15% currencies, 10% REITs and 10% gold. (These asset classes are represented respectively by: Barclays U.S. TIPS Index; Dow Jones UBS Commodities Total Return; J.P. Morgan Emerging Local Markets Plus; Dow Jones Select REITs; and Dow Jones UBS Gold Subindex Total Return.)
From the early days of the TIPS market in early 1997 through September 2012, the index returned 7.7% annually, over five percentage points higher than the annual rate of inflation for the same time frame, with a modest volatility level of 7.7% and a monthly inflation beta of 2.9.
To show how an inflation-sensitive portfolio would have performed over a longer time period that includes different economic scenarios, with both rising and declining interest rates as well as periods of higher inflation, PIMCO simulated returns as far back as all the index data were available, from the second quarter of 1973. This includes a simulation of historical TIPS performance to capture a more robust timeframe than the period since TIPS were introduced in 1997, which has been dominated by declining real rates. Of course, future periods may have very different inflation dynamics than those since 1973, and historical returns may not be indicative of future ones.
We found that by including just a 20% allocation to this Inflation Response Blended Index Model in a portfolio of 70% stocks and 30% bonds (reducing the allocations to 60% and 20%, respectively), the inflation beta of the portfolio increased from -1.62 to -.85. (Inflation beta quantifies the magnitude of an asset's response to inflation; for every 1% change in the rate of inflation, returns move by a multiple reflected by its inflation beta.) Since early 1973, the Inflation Response Blended Index Model alone returned 9.4% – about five percentage points over the average annual 4.3% rate of inflation.
When added to a portfolio of stocks and bonds, the inflation-sensitive index model portfolio increased the inflation beta of the full portfolio, reduced the overall volatility profile and improved risk-adjusted returns, as illustrated in Figure 2.
Opportunities for active management In addition to using the weighting methodology of the Inflation Response Index, the Inflation Response Multi-Asset Strategy seeks to add value by taking advantage of PIMCO's active management capabilities. Tactical allocation among the different asset classes can help position the portfolio to respond to the particular sources of inflation in a given economic environment. In addition, the strategy aims to find relative value opportunities when anticipated economic environments or inflation are priced differently among various asset classes.
Within each asset class, we also see opportunities for active management. PIMCO's real return team has a time-tested history of managing each asset class, combining the firm's top-down global macroeconomic views with bottom-up research on each asset class.
The strategy incorporates tail-risk hedging, which aims to manage the risk of extreme events, such as a financial crisis, when a single risk factor can have a significant impact on portfolio value. The tail-risk hedge seeks to reduce overall portfolio risk, creating opportunities to use capital more effectively when prices are cheaper.
A comprehensive inflation solution With inflation risks increasing over the secular horizon, we think investors should evaluate their portfolios' ability to deal with a rise in inflation. Typical investment portfolios contain a heavy mix of stocks and bonds, which tend to respond negatively to inflation surprises, leaving them ill-prepared for a move higher in inflation. PIMCO's Inflation Response Multi-Asset Strategy offers a solution that is designed to enhance responsiveness to inflation, improve diversification and provide better risk-adjusted return potential. By investing in multiple inflation-sensitive asset classes while managing volatility, hedging tail risk and seeking value via active management, IRMAS aims to better position investors' portfolios for inflation.
Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable indicator of future results. Investing in the bond market is subject to certain risks, including market, interest rate, issuer, credit and inflation risk. Inflation-linked bonds (ILBs) issued by a government are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation; ILBs decline in value when real interest rates rise. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) are ILBs issued by the U.S. government. Commodities contain heightened risk including market, political, regulatory and natural conditions, and may not be suitable for all investors. REITs are subject to risk, such as poor performance by the manager, adverse changes to tax laws or failure to qualify for tax-free pass-through of income. Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time and may reduce the returns of a portfolio. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks, such as liquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closed when most advantageous. Investing in derivatives could lose more than the amount invested. All investments carry risk.
Barclays U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable, and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities, and asset-backed securities. These major sectors are subdivided into more specific indices that are calculated and reported on a regular basis. Barclays U.S. TIPS Index is an unmanaged market index comprised of all U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities rated investment grade (Baa3 or better), have at least one year to final maturity, and at least $250 million par amount outstanding.

Sitting in San Diego right now for a few days, more precisely Chula Vista, awaiting for this final leg of what I feel a whirlwind passage through California. I still feel as being in a different country! We detoured through Davis for a few days visiting some Dear Friends of ours, we even stopped in Los Angeles, I think it was Sherman Oaks spending then one afternoon in Venice Beach, being driven luckily as I don't think we would have made it out of the Freeways in one piece and now here. Back to Tucson in a few days, Show Low and even a stop in Phoenix for a quick repair next week. These days even with much anticipated apprehension have been as chapters playing within this path so different for us and the thought alone of The Oasis awaiting for us I must say calms me down. Spirit himself now has been quiet, this also is not his element, what a patient being he has been all along. I think we will manage to go back as we did a few years ago to Anza Borrego, catch a Sunset, practice a bit of deep breathing while away from it all even if it is just for one day...

Editor's Note: This excerpt from Peter J. Hatch's book, "A Rich Spot of Earth": Thomas Jefferson's Revolutionary Garden at Monticello, is reproduced by permission of Yale University Press (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2012, 145-148). Order it from Amazon.com here.By Peter J. Hatch
Jefferson grew various forms of Bells, Bullnose, sweet, and cayenne pepper (Capsicum annuum), as well as Texas bird pepper (Capsicum annuum var. glabriusculum). His documented sewing of cayenne pepper seed at Shadwell in 1767 is one of the earliest references to this form of Capsicum in North America. Later, in the 1812 "Calendar," "Major," "cayenne," and "Bullnose" (marked by a crinkled, noselike appendage on the blossom end) were planted in adjacent rows in square IX. The Texas bird pepper, obtained from Dr. Samuel Brown of Natchez through acquaintances near San Antonio, was among Jefferson' most exciting introductions. Jefferson planted bird pepper seed in the garden and with a dibble in flowerpots, and relayed the seed to Bernard McMahon in 1813. Green (also called Bell and Bullnose) peppers appear in the Jefferson family manuscripts as additions to tomato pickles and gumbo soup, while cayenne peppers were added to Virginia Randolph Trist's tomato soup and Septimia Meikleham's salad dressing. The Monticello family physician, Dr. Dunglison, prescribed a red pepper gargle to relieve the sore throats of Jefferson's granddaughters. Culinary historian Karen Hess called the use of hot peppers in traditional Virginia cooking "highly skilled and discrete."
The motley tribe of Capsicum annuum are New World natives that were often described and illustrated in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century European herbals. Swiss herbalist Leonard Fuchs depicted a long, red cayenne pepper in De Historia Stirpium in 1542 and discussed a block-shaped sweet pepper. John Gerard reviewed three principal sorts, and Richard Bradley listed twenty varieties in 1728. In an early edition of The Gardener's Dictionary, Philip Miller said that peppers were "of no great use in England" despite extolling "the wholesomest Pickles in the World" made from bell-shaped peppers. By 1768 he was recommending peppers chiefly for ornamental gardens and flowerpots but also praised the cake-like pepper pots made in the West Indies that reputedly relieved flatulence.Peppers may have been brought into North America by coastal traders or slaves born in the West Indies, where European explorers described the use of hot peppers to enliven the native dishes. Travelers described Jamaican Indians pickling bell-shaped peppers in the 1600s. Swedish botanist Peter Kalm observed "guinea peppers" and "piment" in gardens near Philadelphia in 1748 and Albany in 1749. He was impressed by the versatility of this "spice" when pickling cucumbers, flavoring stews, and preserving peppers with salt and vinegar in bottles. The North Carolina Moravians, immigrants from Pennsylvania, brought "Spanish peppers" to Salem as early as 1759. John Randolph in his Treatise around the Revolution and Gardiner and Hepburn in The American Gardener (1804) briefly allude to planting peppers for pickling. "Indian Peppers" were planted by Orange County's Francis Taylor in 1791 and 1792; William Faris grew cherry peppers in Annapolis in 1799; and Lady Jean Skipwith mentioned peppers in her Prestwould garden in southern Virginia around 1800. McMahon's seed house offered eight Capsicum varieties around 1804, but they were called "Annual Flowers" and sold as ornamentals. Pepper seed was found only occasionally on urban lists of the early 1800s. William Booth of Baltimore, for example, sold three varieties of Capsicum for the flower garden in 1810.

Chances are that if you wore it to the club, it is not appropriate for a business casual work environment. There's also the other side of the spectrum, where if you wore it while gardening or house cleaning, it's probably not appropriate either. Believe it or not, your appearance has a lot to do with how you are perceived as an employee. It can also determine whether or not you get that promotion that you've been wanting. Your employer may not consult with you when you're wearing inappropriate work attire, but you better believe that they are making a mental note of how you represent yourself and the company.
It's true that some employers may not have taken the time to educate the employees on what business casual means for its company, nor do they enforce it. This does an disservice to employees that may be hard workers but get looked over for promotions due to appearance. The following tips will give you some Do's and Don'ts to business casual wear.
Lets first start off with some general basics; avoid clothing with: holes, stains, that are dirty, ill-fitting, or with trendy washes, ie. stoned washes, faded washed, acid wash, etc.
- Do wear a nice fitted shirt with a cardigan, blazer, sweater or other sleeved shirt.
- Don't wear spaghetti straps or shirts that are so fitted that your boobs brim over the top. As impressive as your girls may be, they shouldn't been seen at the work place.
- Do wear vibrant colors and/or patterned tops.
- Don't wear printed t-shirts, shirts with brand labels plastered all over them, or tops with inappropriate gestures.
- Do wear tops that are hip length or longer.
- Don't wear tops that expose any mid drift. Even if you've been working on your abs for months at the gym, the workplace is not where you show them off.
- Do wear fitted skirts.
- Don't wear a skirt that are so tight that it's nearly bursting at the seams.
- Do wear skirts that are just slightly above the knee or longer.
- Don't wear skirts that are anywhere near your thighs, or even worse, short enough that your buttocks are threatening a reveal.
- Do wear basic and bold print skirts for fun.
- Don't wear sequins or glittery skirts to work. These are best worn at places they were intended for, like parties and evenings out.
- Do wear a pair of nice fitting jeans.
- Don't wear a pair of jeans that are so tight that you had to lie on your back on the bed to squeeze into them. Save those for date night
- Do wear basic color jeans, ie. blue, black, white.
- Don't wear jeans that have fancy washes, brand names or huge colorful designs plastered on the pockets.
- Do wear relaxed fitting jeans.
- Don't wear jeans that have rips, holes, or any type of tears. Although Brandy looks fashionable and cute above, this is hardly work appropriate.
- Do wear comfortable heels or flats that are stylish.
- Don't wear the sexy stilettos that you wore to the club the night before. Leave the shoes that are over 4 inches high at home.
- Do wear stylish shoes that fit current trends.
- Don't go overboard with busy colors and patters or hardware. Simple and chic is the goal.
- Do wear stylish boots for work that are below the knee or shorter.
- Don't wear thigh high boots, hiking boots, running shoes or any other type of shoe that is intended for sports or manual labor. Unless you hiked a mile before work and intend on changing shoes as soon as you get in, leave these babies on the trail.
The key to business casual attire is to wear fashionable, but slightly understated clothing. You want to look great, but you don't want to stand out too much. These are just some basic guidelines that may or may not apply to your workplace. If you are an offender of a few of these don'ts, don't be ashamed! We've all worn something to work at some point that was totally inappropriate! Now that you know, you can make a few minor wardrobe adjustments and go on to plan your takeover of the company! Ha ha!

UVM's recent grads with loans know what they'll be paying in interest but for current students that's still up in the air.
"Given all the uncertainty it's left us saying here's what we're expecting to be but we don't know yet," Marie Johnson said.
Johnson is Director of Student Financial Services at UVM and has been trying to explain to students what their options are and how interest rates may change.
"Are you planning to borrow. So this is what that will mean if that's 6.8 or this is what it'll mean if it's 3.4," Johnson said..
As of July 1st new subsidized undergrad loans 6.8 percent. But since then the Senate approved a plan to bring them back under four percent even if you've already taken a loan for the coming year.
"So you will still benefit from that change if it's in point made," Scott Giles said.
Vermont Student Assistance Corporation CEO Scott Giles has been following the action in Washington closely. He says the problem with the proposal is it's tied to national interest rates which are likely to rise in the coming years.
"So it's charging students a little bit more in the future in order to pay for this short term benefit. And while we don't agree with that policy we think that there are ways that one could reduce the interest rates without putting this on the back of future students," Giles said.
Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders offered an ammendment to essentially void this deal after two years to come up with a new solution. That failed. The bill still has to pass the House and be signed by the President to become law.

Some elite athletes know exactly which sport they will pursue at an early age. Others find their athletic calling in a less direct route.
Swift Current's Tenille Gering likely qualifies for the latter option after she recently committed to the University of Saskatchewan Huskies cross country and track and field teams for next season.
The grade 12 student, who is also an accomplished hockey player, only recently decided to pursue a career in distance running.
"I hadn't really thought about track as something I could go places with. So it was just really this year that I decided to see what I could do with it. It has been fun. I am really enjoying myself. I can't wait to get out next year and get out to the practices with the team."
"I have got up to a couple practices now and I know that I have a lot of work to do so it is going to be tough but I am looking forward to it," she added.
Gering credited her coach Mrs. Tuplin, a former standout track athlete with the Ardens and Huskies herself, for helping her get an opportunity with the Huskies next season.
Gering will be running the 5K on the cross country team and will be running distance events for the Huskies track and field team. The 3,000 metre is her favorite event but she has also been experimenting with the 800 metre this season.
Gering won the 3,000 and 1,500 at Sectionals in Swift Current last week. She placed second in the 800, less than half a second behind Herbert's Ricki Doyle.
Gering competed this week in the 800, 1,500, and 3,000 metre races at the District meet in Swift Current where she hoped to finish top-two to qualify in all three events with for Provincials.
"We will have to see how that plays out. There's usually not too many distance kids," she laughed.
She attended Provincials in grade nine and 10 before last year's event was cancelled. She has consistently been a top-10 finisher at Provincials and won bronze in the 3,000 in grade nine.
"Once you get to that provincial level it is tough to break that top-10 and that is kind of what my goal is going to be is to get into those races and just put all the training that I have done to work and see if I can get in the top-10 for those events."
She also finished seventh at Cross Country Provincials in the fall.
"I am really going to work for that top-10 position. The group of girls that I am going to be up against in those races are tough competitors so being in that top-10 is going to be the goal. Get in the pack and as the race plays out I just want to keep getting up as far as I can. As long as I am top-10 I am going to be happy."
She has put in the extra work this year to make those goals a reality.
"It has been a lot of work this year. Since I have decided that I want to take my running to the university level I have been training six days a week. It has been quite a bit and I have really been pushing up my practices trying to get up to the best I can be. I haven't got there yet but I am hoping that next week and the week after when we head up to Provincials I am going to be at my top speed there."
The individual pursuit of excellence in distance running is a drastic change from her time on the ice as a member of a hockey team.
"Yeah it is a little bit different. You can't rely on anyone else to do it for you and that is where sometimes I beat myself up about it, get too hard on myself, and I am not doing what I need to be doing. With track we like to compete as a team and try and get as many points as we can but when it comes down to your race it is all individual. It is tough to get your head around it that you can't rely on anyone to do the work for you, you have to go out and do it all yourself."
Gering can take some inspiration from former Colts' and current University of Regina Cougar distance runner Kelly Wiebe, who has become one of the country's top performers, recently winning the Vancouver Sun Run in a field of almost 50,000 competitors.
"I had the opportunity this year, we went to the U of R meet, and we did get the opportunity to watch him race. It was awesome to see even just any of those university athletes run the races. It was really cool for our cross country group to see what level we could be at if we really wanted to work at it."
Not unlike Gering, Wiebe was not a dominant runner at the high school level.
"Yeah I definitely think that it is a hard-work thing," said Gering. "If you really put your mind to it, which I am going to try, you can really get up high there. He has been very successful and well known across the country for his running. I think that the best thing you can take from it is that the hard work is going to pay off and if it doesn't work out this year in grade 12 and I am not where I want to be, I still have time to work at it and be the best that I can."
The SHSAA Track & Field Provincial Championship will be held June 1-2 at Griffith's Stadium in Saskatoon.

Stop reading now Dolphins fans. You're not going to like what I have to say.
The Dolphins are my early favorite to earn the No. 1 pick in the 2012 draft, thus winning the Andrew Luck sweepstakes.
Miami finished 7-9, so I realize that I'm going out on a limb. Right now they have far more talent than the Panthers, Bills or Browns – just to name a few. But they're quickly headed in the wrong direction.
For starters, just look how they ended the 2010 season. They went 1-4 in December and January, including losses to the Browns, Bills and Lions. With Tony Sparano's job on the line, the team didn't exactly step up for their coach.
As bad as the Dolphins were down the stretch, however, their owner is the real reason why I think they're headed towards a miserable 2011 season.
Shortly after the season ended Stephen Ross interviewed Jim Harbaugh. The only problem with that was he already had a head coach. And he never told Tony Sparano or anyone else that his current head coach's job was in jeopardy.
After butchering the coaching situation, Ross decided to get involved with the playcalling, asking for a hurry-up offense. More specifically, he wants the offense to become more "aggressive" and "creative."
So what better way for Ross to ensure that his team's offense becomes "aggressive" and "creative" than by hiring former Browns offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, who was nothing short of an epic failure during his two years in Cleveland.
If you thought the 'Phins offense was abysmal in 2010 – they finished 30th in the league – just wait until Daboll gets his hands on Brandon Marshall and company. Not only does Daboll have a knack for poor clock management and unimaginative playcalling, but he'll likely be losing his most productive playmakers.
Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown are both free agents, and both are still searching for their first career playoff victory. Williams is 33 and Brown is 29 and neither has much left in the tank, as a result I would be surprised to see either back in South Beach.
And I haven't even mentioned the quarterback situation. Chad Henne, who was benched in favor of Chad Pennington at one point this season, is still under contract but doesn't exactly have the confidence of the coaching staff. If Ross continues down this path of over-involvement it's only a matter of time before he pulls an Al Davis and falls in love with Cam Newton or Jake Locker.
And if the dominoes continue to fall in this order, it won't be long before Brandon Marshall is pouting and demanding a trade.
It's getting ugly in Miami, and I'm jumping off the bandwagon early. The only good news for Dolphins fans is that the best quarterback prospect of the past decade may await them in next April's draft.

Ruben Navarrette: Hispanics — an accounting
While other ethnic groups study the issues, many Hispanics have issues. We make mistakes, and we have shortcomings. We have a bad habit of waiting around for institutions to save us — government, schools, organizations, etc. — when what we really need to do is concentrate on saving ourselves.
We struggle with insecurity, stemming from how we were treated growing up in communities where whites controlled everything and mapped out for our lives a path that went not much further than field work. We delight in attacking one another, fighting over petty jealousies and insisting that no one is better than we are. We're too deferential, and too willing to keep quiet when we're being mistreated or taken advantage of. We worry too much about what people think of us, and we've learned not to ask for too much out of life. While we watch less talented colleagues and co-workers demand more, we take what we're given with a smile and a sense of gratitude. And in recent years, like many other Americans, we can't seem to master the art of disagreeing with someone without trying to discredit and destroy them.
In the last four centuries, Hispanics in America have overcome just about every obstacle, challenge, setback and misfortune you can name. Now, for many of them, it's time to overcome the instinct to self-destruct.

Certain movies should never be remade, and IMO, Disney's The Little Mermaid is one of them. But, I suppose that if one were going to try, it might as well be one of my fave directors, Sofia Coppola. I mean did you see The Virgin Suicides, minions?? It's everything. So I'm rather excited to hear that Sof is considering a live action remake of everyone's favorite undersea fable, and rumor has it that Emma Watson could play Ariel! Em herself even addressed the rumors and cheekily boasted that she already has experience with the role.
"I actually dressed up as Ariel for my fifth birthday," she joked. Emma also starred in Sofia's last project, The Bling Ring. "I mean I'd have to read it first. I love Sofia so much."
Does Em strike you as Ariel incarnate? Or is she a little too prim and proper to play the spunky mermaid?
I for one think Emma would nail the role. And considering Sofia isn't afraid of delving into the dark subject matter, I have a feeling that this remake would stick close to the original Little Mermaid plot line, which was rather grim and bloody. Did you know Ursula is Ariel's aunt and responsible for her mother's death? We're not in Disneyland anymore, darlings…XOXO.

Lil Wayne talks about needing to bring a gun to school on the 'Katie' Season 2 premiereAdd to Favorites | Katie
"Katie" premieres its second season next week and one of the first guests is hip-hop star Lil Wayne, who underwent a near-death experience earlier this year when he suffered a series of seizures. In his interview, he opens up about the hospitalization, his time in jail, drinking prescription-strength cough syrup and being a high school dropout.
"Kids please finish high school and all my kids, you are finishing high school, yes. But it was my mom's idea [to quit school]," Lil Wayne tells host Katie Couric in the above preview clip.
"I had an album out ... and I was trying to go to regular public school. ... [My mom] saw me putting my gun in my backpack and she said, 'You gonna bring that to school with you?' and I said, 'You don't want me to bring it?' and she said, 'Yeah, I do' and I put it back. ... It wasn't two minutes later, she walked back to my room and said, 'You aren't going back to school, you're getting a GED. ... If that's the way you gotta go to school ... so I went and got a GED and I went to college."
"Katie" premieres Monday, Sept. 9, check your local listings for time and channel.

Hostelworld "meet the world" by Lucky Generals
Rating: 5.0
By John Reynolds, mediaweek.co.uk, Friday, 14 December 2012 09:23AM
GNM is currently in the process of investigating how to strip out £7m in annual costs from the business.
The NUJ's Guardian and Observer chapel voted on the motion, "This chapel instructs the officers to implement the ballot for industrial action authorise on 8 November to protect NUJ members from compulsory redundancy or the imposition of reduced terms and conditions."
Four hundred NUJ members at GNM backed industry action, which could include strike action, should GNM go through with compulsory redundancies. There were just four votes against the motion and nine absentees.
GNM has told staff it plans to cut between 70 and 100 editorial staff, when it opened the voluntary scheme in July. It is understood to have accepted around 30 applications.
GNM is in on-going discussions with the NUJ on how to best meet the proposed cost-savings.
A GNM spokesperson said: "Yesterday's vote was not a strike ballot, it was a vote of GNM's NUJ members, which instructed NUJ officers to implement a ballot for industrial action"

Thanks for the memories...
The one thing I learned from Ronald Reagan in the 1980's was that if you keep up appearances and you are likable you can pretty much get away with anything. I have to hand it to Reagan; he had an avuncular quality about him.
The one book I recommend is "Mr. Gazoo: A Cartoon History of the Reagan Era" by political cartoonist Tom Toles. [You can buy it for about $2.00 now].
I'm not being sarcastic or disrespectful, here. If you want to know some of the day to day things that went on during Reagan's years in office - from 'just say no', to Star Wars missile defense, to Iran Contra and 'ketchup as a vegetable' as well as a few good things - Toles book is very good and very funny. [For the record Toles is an equal opportunity offender - his cartoons of Clinton were critical and funny too].
More importantly if you want to know about the things that have quickly been forgotten as the nation respectfully mourns then Toles' book is a refresher course.
Unrelated (or related in a tangential way) but of interest...

Customer Reviews of StarTech 4 Port USB 2.0 PCI Card Adapter PC/Mac Plug & Play
This works as you might expect. It was pretty easy to install and added much needed usb slots to my pc. The read and write times for hard drives is pretty standard through this car compared to most usb2.0 ports. Have been using this for a couple of years now without any issues.
I bought it because my old Dell PC did not have a USB 2.0 support. Its a good product and works fine with the motherboard. Shipping of the product was fast. I'm quite happy to see my data transfer to a pendrive; external hard drive and external DVD RAM atleast 5-6 times faster!!
Pleasently surprised5/17/2008
As usual, anything I've purchased from buy.com was delivered sooner than expected. The USB.2 card was easy to install (just pull the old one out and stick the new one in). I expected it to about double the speed of transferring to my external and DVD drives, but found it to be around six times faster.
Increased USB Speed4/26/2008
This has increased the USB to 2.0
Great value, and excellent delivery time3/25/2008
Great value, fair shipping costs, excellent delivery time. I am a happy customer and will purchase from this company again.
Good buy3/11/2008
Card works great. Best overall price I found. There were no problems during install, WinXP found it an installed drivers and it's been working great ever since. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a USB2 card.
Very Satisfied3/11/2008
So far so good. For a neophyte techie like myself, installation was simple (good instructions included). Good price, better than I could get at any of the national consumer electronics stores. I bought it specifically for my external HD, and it is performing well since I installed it 2 weeks ago.
Quick & Easy3/3/2008
Easy to install and you're all set!
Quick and Easy3/2/2008
I received this item about 3 days after I ordered it. It was easy to install and works great. Very satisfying experience.
Works Good2/12/2008
No Problems at all. Installed two of these in WIN XP machines with perfect results. Nothing to do but stick the card in and turn the machine back on. XP did the rest.
Kick Butt USB for dirt cheap price1/16/2008
I connected my external Maxtor 4 external 500 GB USB 2.0 hard drive, and the write speed almost doubled from a previous 2.0 card. BUY.COM shipping is also kick butt speed. Opt for regular shipping over express. This company is a CLASS ACT!! (and I am not being paid for this compliment - it is just facts).
easy and cheap11/28/2007
Card was easy to set up, just install and turn on the PC and let XP do the rest. Used on an older machine that had a mini HD hooked up and took for ever to boot or copy to. After installing it boots quickly and saving files to the mini HD goes quite fast. This is a cheap performance enhancement that is easy to do.
Only Works With Mac OS 10.2.8-10.2.95/27/2007
Be careful not to be pulled in by the words 'mac plug and play' in the title of this product or the fact that it says it is mac compatable. It only works with os 10.2.8-10.2.9, a very narrow window of time for macs and not at all current. I discovered this too late and only from the site of the manufacturer when I had problems using it. Buy.com should be more specific in their descriptions. It is misleading to say 'mac compatable' and list all of the compatable windows based os's specifically. Oh well, just thought I could save someone else the headache.

Mounds Of Money Raised For Henry Vilas Zoo | Community Spirit
Title (Max 100 Characters)
This spring, Mounds Pet Food Warehouse stores collected donations for Henry Vilas Zoo's animal enrichment program. During the month of April, Mounds staff raised more than $18,000 which will be used to purchase new toys and enrichment materials for the zoo's animals, according to Dane County officials.
During the promotion, Mounds stores held a competition between employees at their five area locations. Mounds Madison East raised the most donations and as a result of their hard work, won a behind the scenes tour of Henry Vilas Zoo.
The tour included a giraffe meet and greet, a rhino encounter, special enrichment treats for zoo animals and a behind the scenes look at several other zoo animal care areas.
Last fall, Mounds management came up with the idea for the fundraising event and employee contest when they toured the zoo and got to learn about animal enrichment first hand.
The Henry Vilas Zoo has been working with Mounds for more than a year, collecting donated pet products that zoo staff uses to enhance the lives of the zoo's residents. Since last April, the Henry Vilas Zoo has received more than 375 donated toys from Mounds customers.
Although the fundraising event is over, Mounds customers can still visit each store's zoo displays, and pick out zookeeper approved toys to donate to the zoo.
Mounds are located on Madison's East Side, Fitchburg, Middleton, Janesville and Sun Prairie. For more information, go to http://moundspet.com.

I just made reservations for one of the PSA's little day trips - the "California Riviera" one - and bought a day ticket for Disneyland. The plan is, since I'm going to be stuck for several days in a place I might even visit on my own instead of a place I am only going because that's where the fencing is, to do a little sightseeing. Also, fortunately, the Vet-60 is the first event and the last event is the IA, so it doesn't matter if I'm a little tired out. It all makes me feel quite frolicsome and madcap.

Christian Leaders Urge California Lawmakers to Protect Programs for Hungry and Poor People
The Hidden SDG June 26
Los Angeles, CA, July 19, 2011
Bread for the World and California religious leaders called on all of the state's members of Congress—especially Sens. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), as well as House Majority Whip Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)—to form a circle of protection around programs that meet the essential needs of hungry and poor people in California, the rest of United States, and abroad.
"The proposed cuts will be harmful to many Californians," said Holly Hight, Bread for the World's California field organizer, at a press conference this morning. "We urge our senators and representatives in both parties to protect programs for vulnerable people from being cut in the federal budget debates."
These cuts would have a significant and immediate impact on the most vulnerable Californians, particularly children and very low-income households. More than 3.2 million people in California received SNAP or CalFresh benefits—formerly food stamps—last year.
"The proposed cuts would limit food purchasing power for many families and force them into food insecurity," said Matt Sharp, a senior advocate with California Food Policy Advocates. "Nutrition programs like WIC and CalFresh have too often been incorrectly characterized as government waste, but they're actually investments in families that can least afford basic necessities."
Los Angeles Auxiliary Bishop Alexander Salazar was among a diverse group of speakers at today's press conference, held at Immanuel Presbyterian Church in Los Angeles, the church of moderator Rev. Elizabeth Gibbs Zehnder. Other speakers included Rev. Carissa Baldwin of All Saints Episcopal Church and Rev. William Epps of Second Baptist Church.
"The moral measure of this federal budget is not which party wins or which powerful interests prevail, but rather how those who are jobless, hungry, homeless, or poor are treated," said Bishop Salazar. "Their voices are too often missing in these debates, but they have the most compelling moral claim on our consciousness and our common resources. The Lord hears the cry of the poor."

A few weeks ago Arcade Fire released their new album, The Suburbs. Now the band has teamed up with Google to create an HTML5 music video. But this isn't any old music video. Featuring the song "We Used To Wait," the video combines the music of Arcade Fire with Google Maps and Google Street View images to create a personal experience for every viewer.
When you enter the site (which has only been tested with the Google Chrome browser), the first thing you are prompted to do is to enter the address of the home you grew up in. Then when the video plays, aerial shots of your neighborhood as well as street-level images of your street are incorporated into the video.
Arcade Fire's approach to this video is an innovative way of immersing its viewers into the music. It's especially powerful if the home you grew up in was in a sprawling suburb.
So what are you waiting for? Check out the video for yourself!
