Product Description
From Amazon
Ever since he published his classic 1972 essay "Why They Aren't Writing the Great American Novel Anymore," Tom Wolfe has made his fictional preferences loud and clear. For New Journalism's poster boy, minimalism is a wash, not to mention a failure of nerve. The real mission of the American writer is to produce fat novels of social observation--the sort of thing Balzac would be dishing up if he had made it into the Viagra era. Wolfe's manifesto would have had a hubristic ring if he hadn't actually delivered the goods in 1987 with The Bonfire of the Vanities. Now, more than a decade later, he's back with a second novel. Has the Man in White lived up to his own mission?
On many counts, the answer would have to be yes. Like its predecessor, A Man in Full is a big-canvas work, in which a multitude of characters seems to be ascending or (rapidly) descending the greasy pole of social life: "In an era like this one," a character reminds us, "the twentieth century's fin de siècle, position was everything, and it was the hardest thing to get." Wolfe has changed terrain on us, to be sure. Instead of New York, the focus here is Atlanta, Georgia, where the struggle for turf and power is at least slightly patinated with Deep South gentility. The plot revolves around Charlie Croker, an egomaniacal good ol' boy with a crumbling real-estate empire on his hands. But Wolfe is no less attentive to a pair of supporting players: a downwardly mobile family man, Conrad Hensley, and Roger White II, an African American attorney at a white-shoe firm. What ultimately causes these subplots to converge--and threatens to ignite a racial firestorm in Atlanta--is the alleged rape of a society deb by Georgia Tech football star Fareek "The Cannon" Fanon.
Of course, a detailed plot summary would be about as long as your average minimalist novel. Suffice it to say that A Man in Full is packed with the sort of splendid set pieces we've come to expect from Wolfe. A quail hunt on Charlie's 29,000-acre plantation, a stuffed-shirt evening at the symphony, a politically loaded press conference--the author assembles these scenes with contagious delight. The book is also very, very funny. The law firms, like upper-crust powerhouse Fogg Nackers Rendering & Lean, are straight out of Dickens, and Wolfe brings even his minor characters, like professional hick Opey McCorkle, to vivid life:
In true Opey McCorkle fashion he had turned up for dinner wearing a plaid shirt, a plaid necktie, red felt suspenders, and a big old leather belt that went around his potbelly like something could hitch up a mule with, but for now he had cut off his usual torrent of orotund rhetoric mixed with Baker Countyisms.Readers in search of a kinder, gentler Wolfe may well be disappointed. Retaining the satirist's (necessary) superiority to his subject, he tends to lose his edge precisely when he's trying to move us. Still, when it comes to maximalist portraiture of the American scene--and to sheer, sentence-by-sentence amusement--1998 looks to be the year of the Wolfe, indeed. --James Marcus --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.
From Publishers Weekly
However the National Book Award judges managed to get hold of Wolfe's much-delayed second novel in time to give it their nod as an NBA finalist, they were quite right to do so. It's a dazzling performance, offering a panoramic vision of America at the end of the 20th century that ranges with deceptive ease over our economic, political and racial hang-ups and at the same time maintains a brisk narrative pace that makes the huge book seem only a quarter of its real length. Balzac had the same gift. The "man in full" of the title (the phrase comes from an old song) is Charlie Croker, a good-ole-boy real-estate developer in Atlanta whose sprawling South Georgia plantation, massive mansion in the best part of town, half-empty skyscraper tower named after himself, horde of servants, fleet of jets and free-spending trophy second wife have left him terribly vulnerable to bankers deciding the party's over. As a former football star, however, the suggestion is put to him that there is something he can do to ease his situation. A black Georgia Tech player clearly headed for greatness may have raped the daughter of one of Charlie's old business buddies. If Charlie can help the city's ambitious black mayor maintain calm, the bank just might be persuaded to ease up on him. Three thousand miles away in California, Conrad Hensley, an idealistic young worker at a warehouse run by one of Charlie's subsidiary companies, fired in an offhand downsizing designed to placate the bank, runs afoul of the law in a farcical parking hassle and is thrown in jail. There, in fear of his life, Conrad absorbs Stoic philosophy from a book his wife has sent him, and, aided by a timely earthquake (sent by Zeus?), begins to turn his life around until the day, in exile in Atlanta, he encounters Charlie. These parallel plot lines, examining with microscopic precision the obsessions, preoccupations, habits and lingo of life at the top and bottom of American society, are both compelling in themselves and resonant with a sense of the vast mystery and comedy of contemporary life in this amazing country. Wolfe is as adept at scenes painted with high satirical glee (Charlie on a quail hunt, or introducing shrinking business guests to an all-out stud performance by a prize racehorse) as he is with horror and pity (his picture of life for Conrad in his California jail is almost unbearably intense). Despite the very occasional longeurs (readers learns more Atlanta geography than they may care to) and writerly tics (Wolfe still can't resist onomatopoetic outbursts), the novel is a major advance on The Bonfire of the Vanities in its range, power and compassion, while retaining all of that book's breathless contemporaneity and readability. 1.2 million firt printing; simultanneous audio from BDD.(Nov 6).

The book is mostly set in Atlanta, and Wolfe makes the case that Atlanta has a unique racial situation. Race relations and racial tensions form a major theme in the novel. Wolfe views race from many angles, including views from Atlanta's black elite, wealthy conservative and liberal southern white, and the inside of a California prison.
The characters and characterizations are marvelous. This was one of the strengths of Bonfires and it's a strength of this book too. I don't think Wolfe writes women as well as he writes men, but the men of several different walks of life are as fully fleshed as anything I've ever read. Another fascinating thing about the book is the inside knowledge Wolfe shares. The insider's view of an Atlanta mayoral campaign was truly eye-opening, as was the inside view of a prison.
The book is hard to classify, but the view is often satirical (like Bonfire), and makes fun of the pride, vanity, lusts, and fears of the elites (like Bonfire). However, there is more heart. Some of the heart shows up in Wolfe's compassion for divorced 50-something wives who have been discarded by their social climbing husbands. In Bonfire, the wives, called "X-rays" were subject to the same ridicule as their husbands; not so in this book. Wolfe also shows some compassion for the poor souls in prison, as he illuminates the brutal social structure in his california jail. It's never mawkish; it never plays for sympathy or tears, but the simple facts of prison life are a horror.Read more ›

The final collaboration between Rodgers & Hammerstein was destined to become the world's most beloved musical. When a postulant proves too high-spirited for the religious life, she is dispatched to serve as governess for the seven children of a widowed naval Captain. Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of the stern Captain, and they marry. Upon returning from their honeymoon they discover that Austria has been invaded by the Nazis, who demand the Captain's immediate service in their navy. The family's narrow escape over the mountains to Switzerland on the eve of World War II provides one of the most thrilling and inspirational finales ever presented in the theatre. The motion picture version remains the most popular movie musical of all time.Music by Rodgers, Richard; Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II; Book by Howard Lindsay & Russel Crouse; Suggested by `The Trapp Family Singers` by Maria Augusta Trapp

East versus West makes for a dramatic, richly textured and ultimately uplifting tale of enormous fascination. It is 1862 in Siam when an English widow, Anna Leonowens, and her young son arrive at the Royal Palace in Bangkok, having been summoned by the King to serve as tutor to his many children and wives. The King is largely considered to be a barbarian by those in the West, and he seeks Anna's assistance in changing his image, if not his ways. With both keeping a firm grip on their respective traditions and values, Anna and the King grow to understand and, eventually, respect one another, in a truly unique love story. Along with the dazzling score, the incomparable Jerome Robbins ballet, 'The Small House of Uncle Thomas,' is one of the all-time marvels of the musical stage.Music by Rodgers, Richard; Book by Oscar Hammerstein II; Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II; Based on Anna and the King by Margaret Landon; Original Choreography by Jerome Robbins

The Biblical saga of Joseph and his coat of many colors comes to vibrant life in this delightful musical parable. Joseph, his father's favorite son, is a boy blessed with prophetic dreams. When he is sold into slavery by his jealous brothers and taken to Egypt, Joseph endures a series of adventures in which his spirit and humanity are continually challenged. He is purchased by Potiphar where thwarting advances from Potiphar's wife lands him in jail. When news of Joseph's gift to interpret dreams reaches the Pharaoh (wryly and riotously depicted as Elvis), Joseph is well on his way to becoming second in command. Eventually his brothers, having suffered greatly, unknowingly find themselves groveling at the feet of the brother they betrayed but no longer recognize. After testing their integrity, Joseph reveals himself leading to a heartfelt reconciliation of the sons of Israel. Set to an engaging cornucopia of musical styles, from country-western and calypso to bubble-gum pop and rock 'n' roll, this Old Testament tale emerges both timely and timeless. This version of JOSEPH?DREAMCOAT features extended songs and dances. The Megamix is available as a separate rental with this version. Lyrics by Tim Rice; Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber

Another worrisome issue..
There's no issue with the money or being able to spend. There's a minimum of 20M from sales of Meireles, couple others, and wages saved, plus I can say without a doubt if they find a player or players they want, and Henry agrees, they can have them. Obviously within reason..
Far as the swap for Bent for Carroll, who really knows if that's true? I don't like Bent, but for a swap I'd do that in a second, but I can't imagine McLeish would make that offer..
And regards to Carroll, I'm not sure what else he can do to improve or fit in better. He was brought in with the idea of being that big, powerful, bullying striker who could wear down Cbs and create space for himself and others. Well, it's not just my opinion, because I'm stealing a columnist's quote in saying he often goes down in a challenge like a piece of paper. He won't get any faster, he won't develop top class dribbling skills, he won't develop any flair. He could lose weight and become a little quicker, but then what? He's already not physical enough, and lacking the strength he should have for a lad his size. Dirk Kuyt wins more headers, and chest downs than he does, and jesus h, so does Suarez.
If anyone's on the train that he still needs a run of games, and he's not getting enough games that's fine, but I'm not aboard that one. I'll gladly eat my words if he proves me wrong because it would equal success and that's all we care about, but I don't see where it's coming from.
Put it this way, if Roy Hodgson had spent 35M on Andy Carroll and this was still the same result, what would you be saying? Things not permitted on this board, or around your family and friends and Hodgson would be chased out of the country!
We are by NO means guaranteed a win vs City and going to Wembley as Silva will be back, and no game is easy this time of year, Bolton will be fighting for their home and EPL existence!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
I've been giving this Carroll thingy some thought and it occured to me that apart from the obvious issues surrounding Carroll i.e. his movement and willingness to get involved our midfield and forward line don't get into spaces that cause defences problems. That is we don't get anyone in between the opposition midlfield (that position and space that Silva finds so often) or even beyond their defence.
I remember Dalglish's first stint as manager here at Liverpool and we had players penetrating deep into the opposition backline from all over the park. Overlaps out wide, midfield runs from deep. I hate to say it but even Utd have done this in the past. A prime example is Gerrards frist goal back a week or so ago. He ran from deep and went beyond the opposition back line.
Maybe then we'd see a little more from Carroll. (with a bit of a kick up the rear perhaps)

ViroPharma contracted Recipharm to carry out full commercial-scale manufacture of Plenadren®, a modified release hydrocortisone drug approved in Europe in November 2011 in Europe for the treatment of adrenal insufficiency in adults. ViroPharma is investing in new equipment at the Recipharm site to enable large-scale manufacturing of the drug. Recipharm will be able to use the new equipment for other projects, but ViroPharma will remain its first-priority client.
Plenadren was originally developed and taken through European development and approval by Swedish firm DuoCort Pharma. ViroPharma acquired the business on the back of European approval of Plenadren, in a deal worth SEK 220 million (currently about $32.2 million) up front, but which could top SEK 1 billion dependent on regulatory and commercial milestones. Plenadren is an oral, once daily dual-release hydrocortisone tablet that comprises an outer layer that releases the drug immediately, and a delayed release inner core. Orphan drug designations for Plenadren have been granted in the EU, Switzerland, and the U.S.
Now operating as a subsidiary of ViroPharma, DuoCort started life as a project company of incubator PULS (Partners for Development investments in Life Sciences), which was founded in Sweden in 2002 to act as an incubator and investor for early life science projects, primarily in the drug development field. The incubator has to date established seven project companies.

|A fact from I Know...Brad appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 10 June 2012 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows: "Did you know
This is a meaningless weaselly expression that keeps popping up all over the place in art articles.
Who is it that does this considering?
It is much better to state that the thing "is" an example, and give it a reference.
The other way around this is to state: "Such and such cites it as an example of....."
This "it is considered...." is particularly inappropriate when followed by "famous" or "most famous of So-on's works" . This is an "is" or "isn't" case. If a thing is famous, then the people who consider it "famous" are exactly the same set of people who 'know" the work, and therefore make it famous.
I know this "considered" word is being used to avoid the challenge "that's only an opinion". But if the fact is well referenced then it isn't just an opinion. When it comes to an art work, it's a matter of finding reputable authors who agree. Amandajm (talk) 01:13, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Ten ways to make Shark Week better
Though I was not as critical as some of my colleagues, I was disappointed by this year's "Shark Week". Months after an IUCN report showed that 1/3 of oceanic shark species are in danger of extinction, several Shark Week specials promoted fear and not conservation. I've never been one to criticize without offering suggestions for improvement, though. Here are a few ways that the Discovery Channel can do a better job next year. These suggestions are organized by how difficult they would be to implement, which is not necessarily how much of an impact they would have.
I would appreciate it if you guys would comment NOT on how likely you think these are to occur, but on how happy you would be if Discovery incorporated them. I want the Discovery Channel executives to see that we, the marine conservation community, can work with them in a positive way and not just criticize.
Easy fixes- Things that require very little change to Shark Week.
1) Conservation pop-ups! Throughout Shark Week, little text boxes pop up on the bottom of the screen. This doesn't disrupt the show at all and doesn't require the producers of the Shark Week documentary to do anything- it's edited in later. This year, almost all of the pop-up boxes informed us what documentary was on next, or told us about merchandise sales on Discovery's website. It would be extremely easy to add pop-up boxes with conservation messages. Discovery's website has a lot of worthwhile shark conservation information, but viewers weren't told that it was there. If every documentary had a pop-up box that said "Sharks are in trouble, find out why and how you can help, log onto Discovery.com/SharkWeek" this wouldn't disrupt the show at all and it would certainly help.
2) Change the promos. Shark Week promos this year were simply ridiculous. You don't need an ominous voice and letters dripping blood. People are interested in sharks without artificial hype. I guarantee you that the general public will be hooked if you show, for example, footage of graceful schooling hammerheads. Text without blood dripping from it and a narrator that doesn't sound constipated would take some of the silliness away without making viewers less interested in any way.
3) Improve the website. While the Shark Week website has a lot of good conservation information, very little of it is geared toward people who have never heard that sharks are important and in big trouble (i.e. most of the country). It's also somewhat confusingly organized. The website would benefit from an introductory page in the style of my "Four things everyone needs to know about sharks"- a brief introduction (for complete newcomers to the world of shark conservation) that says that sharks aren't a major threat to humans, that they are economically and ecologically important, that they are in deep trouble, and that you can help. Heck, I'd be more than happy to just let you use my post rather than make a new one, as long as it's properly attributed.
Slightly harder fixes– things that require a slight change to the documentaries and Shark Week itself.
1) Require that a scientist be interviewed. Most documentaries this year featured an interview from a shark scientist, but not all did. The public trusts scientists and would consider what we say. Even if the rest of the documentary was about sharks attacking humans, a 90 second clip from a shark scientist explaining that shark attacks aren't very likely and that sharks are actually important to ecosystems (and in trouble) would go a long way.
2) Don't openly mock science and conservation. Ideally all Shark Week documentaries should have a conservation focus, but barring that, they at least shouldn't openly mock science and conservation. The historical reenactment scientist in "Blood in the Water" was presented as an idiot for claiming that shark attacks are rare, and an interviewed attack victim in Sharkbite Summer said that all the statistics you hear about shark attacks being rare are meaningless when it happens to you.
3) Require a pro-conservation close. Some documentaries that focused on shark attacks ended by saying that "shark attacks are really rare, don't worry". Others didn't. None of the attack-focused specials said anything about how sharks are crucial to ecosystems that humans depend on economically, or how some species are critically endangered. Even if the rest of the documentary focused on sharks attacking humans, at least including a couple of minutes of pro-conservation material at the end would provide some balance.
4) Get a better PSA. This year's ocean conservancy PSA said that shark finning needed to be stopped, but didn't say what shark finning IS or why it's a threat or why sharks are important in the first place. As Andrew would say, this is "subpar at best". If I were more cynical, I might echo my colleagues opinion that this stinks of wanting to appear like you're trying to help without actually doing anything that will help.
Pretty hard fixes- Things that would require a great deal of work to incorporate into Shark Week.
1) Include at least one solidly pro-conservation documentary (ideally all the documentaries, but at least one would be good). There are LOTS of conservation-minded shark documentaries and conservation-minded production companies out there. Work with them. Maybe when Shark Week first aired, the American public wasn't in the mindset to appreciate conservation and environmentalism. Now they are. Look at how successful "An Inconvenient Truth" was and how many people drive Hybrids-people care about the environment more than ever before. You can capitalize on this. I'd be very surprised if pro-conservation documentaries reduced your viewership at all, and wouldn't be surprised if they increased your viewership. I even have two recommendations for you of movies that are already made.
-The producers of Requiem, described by yours truly as the "best conservation-minded shark documentary" I've ever seen, have agreed to sell you the rights to their already-made documentary for HALF of your average shark week rate.
-The filmmaker behind "Island of the Great White Shark" has agreed to negotiate favorable terms for the Discovery Channel.
Both of these films are already made, are very entertaining, and are solidly pro-conservation.
2) Ditch the "Jaws and Claws" style shark attack specials. While I differ from my colleagues in that I don't think that one shark attack special (if it includes how to avoid being attacked by sharks, a statement that shark attacks are rare, and a statement that sharks are actually important to humans and in trouble) is the end of the world. However, half of this year's Shark Week was shark attack specials, some of them didn't stress the rarity of a shark attack, and none mentioned that sharks are important to people and are in trouble. This is no good.
3) Don't say anything completely ridiculous from a scientific perspective. This was most prevalent in "Blood in the Water", which claimed that unusual moon activity led to a creek being extra salty for a couple of days, allowing a great white to swim up the creek and kill swimming children. There are so many things wrong with this that I don't even know where to start. It would be great to make sure that all of your facts are run by experts, but at least run them by college freshmen who have taken "Oceanography 101".
Discovery Channel executives, I know that you are reading this because I sent it to you. I hope you'll see that despite the outrage from some shark conservationists this year, we as a community are willing to work with you to make Shark Week better. Some of the suggestions here would be very easy to implement and could have a major impact. Others would require more work, but you have almost a year before the next "Shark Week".
Shark Week is what first got me interested in sharks, and I haven't missed one yet. That said, this year's Shark Week could have and should have been better- less fearmongering, more science and conservation. As one of the world's leading non-fiction entertainment companies, you reach a lot of people and can do a lot of good for an important and threatened group of animals. You know how to reach me if you have any questions- I remain happy to help in any way I can, and I remain cautiously optimistic that next year will be better.
Southern Fried Science readers, please join in the discussion here- which of these proposed changes would make you happiest? Do you have other proposed changes to make?

Though I'd be delighted with any and all of the comments mentioned up here, probably the one that would make me happiest would be the suggestion about the footage of schooling hammerheads.
In my opinion, the cinematography was the best thing about "Sharkwater," because it showed the ocean, and sharks in particular, in a completely different light. Instead of the stock footage of a prowling oceanic white tip or great white shark, or the shot of a diver being attacked by a tiger shark, "Sharkwater" upped the contrast to make colors stand out and shot sharks while they were engaged in behavior that made them seem more beautiful and much less threatening.
As much as a popup would do for shark conservation, I think that shooting video of sharks a la Rob Stewart would be much more subtle and much more visually appealing than anything. I know I'd be glued to the tv.

Sometimes Shark Week feel like promos for monster truck rallies.
October 23, 2009 1:54 pm
Well thought out and presented. Shark Week 2009 made the mistake of underestimating their audience's desire for information.
Gone was the artful blend of information, science and yes, fear. Like a fine aged table wine, it's all in the blend.
Let's hope DC Network folks see this and take heed. It's a fine starting place for conversation and dare I say it, salvation, of a very tarnished brand.
Jo permalinkOctober 24, 2009 3:26 am
I like the way this has been set out, very clear and precise. I agree with all the points made, and with Sams comment, I believe cinematography is important, and would perhaps highlight the stark beauty of sharks, the way they move, (as in the footage of schooling Hammerheads), as opposed to just presenting them as predators. I believe the "fear factor" has to be included to some extent to draw audiences, a lot of people are "drawn in" by sick fascination,(there's always those who slow down to get a good look at the scene of a motorway/highway accident for example?) But I agree that more facts about the rarity of shark attacks needs to be brought to ppl's attention, and the importance of sharks in the ecological balance, and how ppl can help in their conservation in small ways…Yes to the pop ups, nice idea, and definately better pr about science and conservation.
Jo permalinkOctober 24, 2009 3:35 am
Oh, here's an idea…have you seen how Google advertise certain anniversaries, by having a design over their header…when you click on it, it's actually a hyperlink which takes you to a website, giving information on the subject? Why not get in touch with them and /or other search engines to see if they'll include sharkweek? I don't recall seeing it on Google.
Debz permalinkOctober 24, 2009 9:11 am
I agree, I think a lot of good points made. Although I have to say as sad as it is, I know that lots of people are drawn in to watch shark programmes BECAUSE of the gore factor and the stories of attacks. Even though I love sharks myself and want to help preserve them and understand that attacks are rare and usually mistaken identity etc… I still have a fascination on hearing and reading about these incidents! I think perhaps the answer would not be to eliminate this side of things from the adverts, but that when actually watching the programme, the viewer should learn more about the truth- include the attacks, but also explain why, and include equal examples of sharks and people experiencing good encounters.
Also, I don't know what kind of footage is available of sharks but perhaps something that would "humanize" them a bit would be a good idea. For example if people could see a mother and baby together, or some kind of behaviour that hints at emotion- even if it is anthromorphism a bit. If the general public could see sharks as having feelings more similar to us then I think this would change their whole view of them. At the moment they seem to be seen as cold and emotionless killing machines.
Claire permalinkOctober 24, 2009 3:34 pm
Great article David! I definitely agree that the Discovery Channel needs to utilize better programming when it comes to Shark Week. I was so disappointed with this year's Shark Week that I stopped watching it after the first couple of days, which is a big thing for me considering how much of a shark nerd I am. I would really appreciate it if the Discovery Channel would create more conservation oriented programming.
glynis Howarth permalinkOctober 25, 2009 8:09 am
Love the pop-up idea..
DrS permalinkOctober 25, 2009 2:25 pm
I love the commentary.
I remember being so excited for Shark Week when I was a kid, in the 90s. I loved sharks, in retrospect probably because of the fear factor, but I remember learning so much along the way. I definitely came away knowing real information about sharks, and it probably played a large part in me becoming an environmentalist.
Maybe I'm just not a kid anymore so I don't see it, but it really seems like you can't come away from Shark Week more knowledgeable about marine biology anymore. Worse, it won't inspire anyone to care.
Michael; South Africa permalinkOctober 31, 2009 3:31 pm
I like all the points that were said, let's hope shark week would be more on the conservation way of life. I'm a victim of a white shark bite on one of our dives, well more like a nibble but I really shat (excuse the pun) myself when I saw this massive shadow moving at one heck of a speed. Luckily the guys in the boat pulled me out in time because I would have been finished. I have the greatest respect for sharks especially submarine (the great white that had a nibble at my calf muscle). Keep up the good work & hope all goes well!!!!!!!!!
Peace Be Thy Journey!!!!!!!!!!!
Sarah permalinkNovember 5, 2009 7:48 am
I don't have much input other than what's already been mentioned, but I think it would be really productive if they aired Sharkwater during Shark Week. A lot of times, they have one featured show about how sharks really aren't dangerous, and then right after that they have something along the lines of 'Shark Attacks from Ferocious Sharks!". Its really not making any impact at all to have that first show with something like that right after. I know it raises views to have that second show on, but we as a whole need to change that misconception about sharks. No, they're not all dangerous at all, yet 90% of the sharks' population has been wiped out within the last 50 years. Shark finning is still going on, every day, every night, and by sitting here and putting those detrimental shows on tv, you're not doing anything to stop it. Maybe a show on what will happen when you kill of the top of the food chain that has been here for millions of years and has yet found a need to evolve. I think that would really help, especially if those kind of shows outweighed the other ones about how ferocious the sharks are. Maybe then there'd be a change in heart by at least a few individuals. And a few is all we need to make a greater, positive impact on the conservation of sharks.

and when State Department approves go higher to $62 and then when Obama approves we hit $77 a share and keep climbing. These are conservative estimates but many here think TRP could be a $100 stock by mid to end of year.
Really crazy ideas. Since most people expect approval, it is mostly priced in already. Apart from which TRP returns over the past year have corresponded fairly well to those of ENB, and there was no significant drop when keystone was first denied.
Approval is good for a 5% jump, tops.
"many here think TRP could be a $100 stock by mid to end of year."
where, in the mental asylum? Find any analyst who says anything like that. Come on, just one.
Your missing the point. Transcanada current share price is not based on Keystone pipeline approval. The company stock price is based on current work and new billion dollar oil and natural gas pipeline deals the company has booked over the last few weeks/months. The Keystone pipeline is a 50 - 50 up in the air deal. So the first poster was correct in stating that if the Keystone pipeline is approved by the President, then the stock could jump way higher. $75 easy and possibly into the $80 to $90 range. If anything the uncertainly of the Keystone pipeline outcome is holding the stock down. Which means its way undervalued. Come March/April TRP will be trading in the $60 to $70 range, so breaking news of Keystone pipeline approval could very well send the stock near $100 a share. Though I'm thinking more $85 range.
I agree that the things look very good going forward. If Obama wanted to stop TransCanada from building the Keystone pipeline he would of done that last year. Instead he said he would hold off his decision pending the Nebraska review and he also gave TransCanada the green light to build the lower half the the Keystone pipeline in Oklahoma, Texas, etc. Add all these other huger contracts TRP is lining up and it seems the stock is heading way higher.
obama did reject it last year; its been re-submitted but he and the state dept can still reject it

This Way for Spiritual Direction
This school year, the Chapel offers an opportunity to meet one-on-one for spiritual direction.
Spiritual Direction is really not about being "directed." It is, rather, one person accompanying another on the spiritual journey. It is an opportunity to grow in attentiveness to and relationship with God. It provides a way to become more conscious of God's presence each day. It may involve exploring different ways to pray or it may mean learning to notice experiences of God. Typically one meets with a spiritual director for about an hour, usually every three to five weeks. The "directee" determines the themes of the conversation. The "director" listens, gives encouragement, and offers feedback and suggestions if desired. (Brochures about spiritual direction are available at the Chapel, and additional information may be found at the web site of Spiritual Directors International www.sdiworld.org.)
Beginning this fall, E. Louise Williams will offer Spiritual Direction at the Chapel. Louise is a VU graduate and has been a deaconess for over 40 years. She has an MA in Christian Spiritualities from Mundelein College, Chicago. She has been a spiritual director for many years and currently meets monthly with a peer group of spiritual directors. She is co-facilitator of the Michiana Spiritual Directors Network and is a member of Spiritual Directors International. She is Executive Director Emeritus of the Lutheran Deaconess Association and teaches part time in the Theology Department at VU.
If you wish to use the resource of Spiritual Direction at the Chapel, please contact Sri at the chapel office (464-5093) for an appointment or

THE WAKE by Scott Snyder and Sean Murphy has had us captivated since the first issue. With issue #5, we had quite the cliffhanger as issue #6 jumps forward 200 years. With only four more issues after this and a whole new world introduced, we took the opportunity to talk to Scott to find out what's coming up and if there'll be anything afterwards.
COMIC VINE: Can we assume it was always your plan to jump the story forward 200 years after a big cliffhanger moment?
SCOTT SNYDER: Yeah, that was in the outline. Sean and I really discussed for some time actually making the book, in the beginning, set in the future and then flashing back to the past occasionally. But we really fell in love with the story in the past as well. We decided to try something a little more daring and do the book in two halves.
CV: How much thought went into designing the setting for the future time period?
SS: A lot. Sean really worked on it. He started designing it before we began the book. Those designs and the characters, especially Leeward and the dolphin, Dash, were there from before we really designed the characters in the present day section. This is really the part we've been dying to get to. I'm super proud of the first half and this half, it makes me really nervous to be honest. It's so outside my comfort zone. I've never really tried post-apocalyptic adventures, even though I love reading them. As nervous as it makes me, it's also the part I'm really itching to try.
CV: With just four more issues left, will we get to see other areas of this timeline? There was mention of the "Tree People" and areas like "The Sands," etc.
SS: There's a lot of stuff we won't get to see because the book is so short. Sean and I have stories for it. We talked about coming back to it in the future if people really like where it goes. My hope is people will like it enough so we'll be able to return and explore some of those elements. We're going to see a bunch of the world, I'll say that. There's going to be a journey across the ocean to determine whether the signal is real or not.
CV: What about the Governess at Crane City? What's her story?
SS: Yes, you're going to find out about her past, the General's past, General Milo. They're both characters that Sean and I like a lot. Those two characters figure really big and their relationship is important. You'll also see more of Pub, Leeward, and Dash. Dash is everyone's favorite. Everyone's telling me if I kill him, they'll stop reading the book. So I promise, he's safe. I don't have any intention of killing him. There's a really big spoiler alert.
CV: With the cliffhanger in issue 5 and issue 6, do you sit back and laugh in an evil way thinking about how all of us are going to react to them and have to wait?
SS: No. My concern, oddly, I think I get this wrong a lot, is people usually see it coming. I worry they're going to be bored with it or they'll anticipate it in a way since it was hinted at in the other issues. There was a hint that were were going to jump two-hundred years into the future so my assumption was you guys would think these characters are dead in the second half. But, I guess what I forget is you don't realize they're going to die dramatically. They could easily have long happy lives and then die. Or they could still be alive. I'm always playing it, I feel, too close to the chest. I'm never sitting there thinking, "Ha ha. I have you guys." I'm usually thinking, "Oh god, I hope they get this," or "I really hope this feels the way I mean it to feel." It's not meant to be a shocking thing, an emotionally gripping or moving moment in the story. That's what I want the end of 6 to be. There's a chance that Lee might still be alive. Maybe she is, maybe she isn't. I'm not trying to pull your heart strings in a way that's manipulative.
CV: Will you get into more of the story behind the Mers? Like what their full story is or why some are larger than others?
SS: Oh yeah. Yup. You're going to learn all about them. You're going to learn all about the sort of weird fuses we did in the first half from the prehistoric times and everything. We're going to try to wrap it all up in there. If I'm 100% honest, I'm a little nervous just because we planned the book at five issues but there's a lot in there. The single biggest challenge for me is there's so many things I want to explore, character wise, geographically, and all that. I have to keep the story going as fast as possibly to ensure it gets to where it's supposed to get
CV: With series like AMERICAN VAMPIRE or SEVERED, it's clear what your inspirations were. What inspired these creatures?
SS: It was actually a video I saw a long time ago (it's on YouTube). It was the discovery of this ancient shark off the coast of Japan. It was still alive, barley alive. It's very creepy looking. It looks like an eel/shark. I remember thinking to myself how odd it was that this thing evolutionary thought long extinct was alive. Not only alive but there's probably a few of them out there. Then I thought to myself, there's probably so many creatures we discover all the time. A lot of them are tiny but we're discovering new species constantly. It started getting me thinking about my favorite horror movies, I'm a huge graphic monster fan.
Along with Frankenstein and the Wolf-Man, I have statues of all those classic monsters. The Creature front the Black Lagoon is my father's favorite and also one of mine. I started thinking, what if I did a sort of modern day Creature from the Black Lagoon. I started playing with it and then I talked to Sean. The idea of doing the Creature from the Black Lagoon was great but we fell in love with the idea, what if they win at the end, what would the world be afterwards, what if there's too many of them? It got bigger and bigger and bigger. That was the original idea.

Shahrukh makes derogatory remarks on Asha, Zeenat
Rumours were spreading like wildfire that his remarks have not gone down too well with the actresses but that's not true. Asha and Zaneet have confirmed that they were not offended by Shahrukh's remarks, as they were informed of it well before the event.
In fact, the yesteryear actresses love Shahrukh and maintained that there was nothing derogatory about his remarks. They added that everything was done in good humour.

First of alle thanks for the great plugin, it's exactly what I was looking for.
However I have 1 issue. When I add the searchbox to the FAQ page, the search returns an archive page with the matched FAQ items. So far so good. It is probably using a standard archive page for this?
Then when I click through to the actual FAQ item it returns an empty page. Also when I click "preview" within WP admin for one of my FAQ items it returns an empty page.
Any idea what could cause this? Could it be permalink related perhaps? I use: /%category%/%postname%/
I also use the plugin "no category base"
Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
Cheers, Eric

Phen375 Reviewed
Wednesday, January 23rd, 2013 at 6:13 am
Is Phen375 really effective or is it just another SCAM designed to do nothing more than take your money? Phen375 has been on the market for while and has experienced amazing success as a weight loss compound. However, many diet pills and tablets on the market don't work and don't live up to their expectations or claims. So we thought we would do a review on Phen375 to see if it meets the manufacturer's claims.
> CLICK HERE FOR UP TO 30 FREE PHEN375 Pills <
Obesity is becoming an epidemic around the world and there are some estimates that the health care costs associated with obesity associated illnesses could run into trillions of US dollars in the future. Many medical health experts have determined that our lifestyles is the primary culprit. We live in an automated society and drive just about everywhere and simply don't get enough exercise. Our diets are also to blame. We eat high fat, processed food that is not nutritious and adds to our waistline over time. Fast food outlets are everywhere and most of us use them when we shouldn't.
Sometimes exercising and watching what we eat is not enough to lose or even maintain our weights. We need a little help in the form of a supplement. There are many diet supplements on the market. Some are available only through your doctors office and are very effective. Others can be purchased over the counter and are also very effective and in some instances a lot less expensive.
What is Phen375?
Phen375 is unusual in that it is both a fat burner and appetite suppressant. Most other diet compounds are either a fat burner or appetite suppressant but not both. When you consume access calories and carbohydrates, the body will convert them to fat. The key to controlling your weight is controlling what you consume and what is absorbed into your system. Phen375 has been proven to reduce calorie intake and help you to burn fat efficiently and effectively.
How does it work?
The Phen375 compound contains some of the most powerful dieting ingredients ever developed. This compound increases your metabolism dramatically, breaks down the fatty tissue in your body, enables your body to burn stored fat and suppresses your appetite so your carbohydrates and caloric intake is less. Strong willpower is not required while taking Phen375 to lose weight.
Is it safe?
It is 100% safe. The product has been used by literally thousands of people around the world and there have been no reported side effects. However, if you have major health issues such as cardio-vascular disease, you should consult with your doctor before taking any diet aid. Children should not consume this product.
What is the companies background?
Phen375 is manufactured by RDK Pharmaceuticals. RDK Pharmaceuticals has a long history of providing quality products with quality ingredients that live up to all advertised promises. The company has a great record with consumer and governmental oversight agencies.
Where Can I Buy Phen375?
Phen375 is not available at very many sites and you will not find it at your local market. For a limited time you can get up to 90 FREE pills and a great money back guarantee for a limited time. To take advantage of this very special offer please click here. Phen375 is shipped in very discreet packaging so nobody knows you are using it. The product is shipped around the world and all majoe credit cards are accepted.
Does Phen375 Really Work?
Phen375 has rave reviews by both customers and diet industry experts. It has been on the market since 2009 and since then the average person have lost up to 5 pounds per week. This is very impressive. It is produced in an FDA registered lab and is manufactured using quality ingredients. The active ingredients in Phen375 do in fact reduce appetite, curb caloric and carbohydrate intake, increase metabolism and also prevents muscle loss. It has very positive ratings with consumer watchdog agencies, has many amazing great user testimonials.
It is the strongest over the counter diet supplement available and absolutely does work for prople of any age and of any body shape. We strongly recommend using Phen375 if you want to lose weight quickly!

After the New England Patriots loss to the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship, Greg Bedard wrote, in my opinion, the greatest in-depth and insightful analysis column. He highlighted certain reasons for the Patriots loss, and claimed that they played their worst at the absolute worst time. Failure of the run game, poor blocking, indecisive coaching, and missed tackles were where the Patriots had their shortcomings, thus resulting in a loss to a better team. All of this seems obvious, but I took one extremely glaring conclusions from his column - First, Rob Gronkowski is an extremely viable candidate for Patriots offensive MVP, and that it the highest of praise for a team that features a future Hall of Fame Quarterback in Tom Brady. Prior to the Playoffs starting, I claimed that the Patriots would win the Super Bowl because of their improved run game, and their renovated defensive scheme.
