As we told you in 2001, there is no turning back. There is absolutely no way the Fed, Washington and Wall Street can stop the recession and the direction in which the economy is headed. In fact, we don't believe they can stop the economy from entering depression and that has been our view for seven years. The stock market rally over the past four years was created out copious cheap money and credit.
Now that it is obvious America is in recession, our politicians are calling for a stimulus package so that we can again spend our way out and create more debt. Under our corporatist fascist government business and especially the US Chamber of Commerce, that same group that wants amnesty for illegal aliens, so they can exploit their cheap labor, are pushing for lower corporate tax rates and a tax credit for business investment. Congress wants a mixture of monetary and fiscal policy. A small increase in government spending now, an interest rate cut late in January, plus tax cuts triggered if economic growth falls below a certain level.
We are just talking billions. It is not like they are talking big money. Just a $10 billion in stimulus, which is peanuts to the economy and won't help much. Then again, those in Congress can prove their worth to their constituents by saying see we tried to help you. That is a far cry from the $500 to $700 billion a year flowing from real estate into consumption. The question is can Congress and the neocons even reach an agreement on such an infusion? Either way the Fed can always take the issuance of money and credit up to 25% or so. The Fed is always trigger-happy when it comes to extending money and credit. They have great excuses, a recession, a collapse in real estate and credit cheating banks that are on the edge of disaster. Who cares about inflation when saving the economy is at stake. Besides the Fed doesn't dare allow deflation to get an upper hand. In addition we have only fallen ¼ to 1/3rd of where we are headed and the credit and banking crisis could last for years.
Keynesians and other Illuminists do not care to understand that the results of fueling apparent growth by the expansion of money and credit cannot bring real growth. Money and credit are mediums of exchange – they do not create economic growth. Excessive injections of money and credit into our economy can only create inflation. If that is so the Fed is doing the wrong thing. The Fed is increasing banking reserves and that is exactly what they did in the late 1920s. From 19021 to 1929, money stock increased 7.7%. Today it is up 17.5%. This can only lead to the destruction of the dollar.
Jonathan Pollard, an Israeli spy, who has spent 23 years in jail said, "I'm shocked and disgusted by the fact that his former Mossad handler Rafi Eitan is having dinner with President Bush. This is a man who should be in a jail cell at least until I get out, if not later. He was directly responsible for my abandonment, did everything he could to keep me in prison, and said he regretted not killing me when he had the opportunity to do so." Pollard has referred to Eitan as an "un-indicted conspirator" who was one step away from being deemed a criminal in the US. "This is not a man you bring into the presence of the President of the United States." "This is a man you put on ice until my case is over. Only in Israel can this happen, in a country where the big shots can get away with attempted murder." Our guess is that part of the reason for Bush's appearance in Israel is to release Pollard, because no other Israelis were or have been punished for thousands of cases involving Israelis spying on the US. Israel gets what it wants from the Illuminists.
The Fed has just reported that credit card debt rose at an 11.3% annualized rate in November after rising at an 8.5% rate in October. By comparison, credit card debt rose at a rate between 2% and 4% from 2003 to 2005. The reason is homeowners are losing their ability to borrow against their homes. The ratio of homeowners' equity to value stood at just 50.4% down from 54.2% at the end of 2005, and 57.3% at the end of 2001. The ratio almost certainly will cross below 50% for the first time in history when the fourth quarter data is reported. This is a remarkably rapid decline, especially since the soaring home prices of recent years translated dollar for dollar into additional equity. A large number of homeowners have little or no equity left in their homes. This cannot continue for long. Total outstanding credit debt is less than $940 billion; mortgage debt was increasing at a $730 billion annual rate in the third quarter. Thus millions of households will soon have little choice but to sharply curtail their consumption.
House prices in the aggregate index were dropping at an annual rate of 11.7% in the three months from July to October. It is expected that households will lose more than $2.2 trillion in housing wealth in 2008. In Las Vegas, house prices were falling at an 18.9% annual rate over the past three months. San Diego was falling at a 20.3% rate and Miami by 22%.
As we mentioned previously, the mortgage applications index is very distorted and unreliable. The subprime segment is under-represented and it doesn't address switches from defunct subprime lenders to new lenders. Last week's seasonally adjusted 32%, thus was misleading. The four-week average for the purchase index was 398. It was over 500 in 2005.
Goldman Sachs sees GDP contracting by 1% in the second and third quarters. They now see the Fed funds rate at 2.5% by the third quarter.
Goldman Sachs says the economy is probably slipping into recession. Credit default swaps on the Market CDX North American Investment Grade Index jumped 4.75 BPS to 101. The 30 European investment graded companies rose to 99.5 BPS. The global default rate on bonds will climb 5-fold by the end of the year.
Countrywide financial, the biggest US mortgage lender said foreclosures doubled to 1.44% from 0.7% yoy. Late payments advanced to 7.2% of unpaid balances from 4.6%.
MBIA the giant bond insurer hobbled by the collapse of the subprime market will cut its dividend 62% to raise $1 billion in a sale of notes to boost capital and preserve its AAA credit rating.
In New Hampshire, volunteers for Obama and Paul were kicked out of many polling places for not have proper credentials.
The trial of five executives in AIG group's financial fraud case got underway on Monday, with the prosecutor saying AIG Illuminist, Maurice "Hank" Greenberg, set the scheme in motion in 2000. Of course, being a top Illuminist Greenberg was never charged.
US household budgets spend over 20% of their income on food, yet the BLS weighs food at home as only 7.96% of CPI. Food away from home is 5.98%. For the poor spending for food it is 23% of income
Lenders have already raised their consumer prices to reflect fee increases they must pay to Fannie Mae, the largest funder of home loans and Freddie Mac beginning in March. They are charging an additional 0.25% on the loan amount on all loans. Both companies fund conforming loans up to $417,000, so the maximum fee would be $1,042.50. Fannie starts on March 1st and Freddie on March 9th. They are also increasing fees on loans to borrowers with low to mid-range credit scores known as FICO. The new fees will apply to anyone with a FICO of under 680, if the loan is greater than 70% of the value of the home. That is on top of the 0.25% fee. This is risk based pricing to offset rising delinquencies. That means in order to avoid fees you would have to have a down of $75,000 on a $250,000 home Presently conforming loans are about 6% and jumbos are 7%. In order to bring costs down borrowers are taking down two loans. One for $417,000 and another for the remainder.
The new FICO based fees vary from 0.75% to 2% of the loan amount and are in addition to the 0.25% fee on all loans. Hence, the maximum combined fees for someone with a FICO of less than 620 would be $9,382.50 or 2.25% of $417,000.
There are those with FICO's of 640 to 659 and borrowing 80% who could either pay 1.25% of the loan or pay an interest rate about 0.375 higher.
In addition, Fannie on January 15th will lower by 5% the total amount it is willing to fund against the value of a home in declining housing markets. A previous 100% would become 95% funding.
Both companies see continued declining prices and as a result credit losses are increasing. The new charges are in anticipation of further significant price declines. In conclusion, in spite of falling prices, houses are going to be more difficult to buy and that will add to the price deterioration.
What caused this result was that the fed told the lenders and the mortgage originators to make loans no matter how it was done. They allowed fraud to dominate their decisions. They knowingly made mortgages that borrowers could not afford and could not qualify for. Buyers were put in unsuitable mortgages - mortgages that brought the most profit to the lender. Investment banks did little, if no due diligence, on underlying assets, many of which were rife with fraud. Lenders and securitizers colluded with raters to create the AAA fraud on mortgages that were triple B and sold them to unsuspecting professional investors. Thus we see fraud from one end to the other and our government plans to do absolutely nothing about it.
Last week mortgage application volume was up 32.2%, but we explained earlier that the figure was misleading. Volume is still 13% less than it was four-weeks earlier. Refi volume increased to 53.9% and purchase volume rose 14.7%. Refi appls accounted for 57.7% of total applications, compared with 50.9% the prior week. The 30-year fixed rate mortgage was 5.73%, down from 6.05%; the 15s were 5.21%, down from 5.61% and the one-year ARMs were up to 6.04% from 6%.
People moving from other states to Florida has declined for the 3rd consecutive year from 268,000 in 2005 to 35,000 last year by far the most precipitous drop since records began in 1990. Home prices fell 20% last year and in some new developments they are off 35%.
California Governor Schwarzenegger wants to eliminate the $14 billion budget shortfall by cutting spending. The Democrats want to increase taxes; a big battle is looming in the golden State.
The Fed created $5 trillion of newly generated credit in a $14 trillion economy last year. If this continued injection of money and credit was halted, the economy would shrink by 1/3rd. Credit expanded 12% in 2007, as commercial and industrial loans grew 21%. The only conclusion to such profligacy is an inflationary depression. As a result the dollar fell 12% against the euro, 15% versus the Canadian dollar, 10% versus the Swiss franc, 8% against the pound and 7% versus the yen. Import prices as a result rose 11.4% and the PPI was up 7.2%. Official inflation was 4.3%, but our numbers show 11.6%. The question is how low will the dollar fall in 2008? It could be to 40 to 55 or to 60 to 65. One thing is for sure the world is awash in dollars and the dollar is going lower as gold and silver moves higher Wait until fourth and first quarter earnings come out and watch the Dow fall.
We supposedly brought democracy to Iraq: 2.3 million people have been displaced internally, 2.3 million have left and 1.3 million have been killed. What a horrible accomplishment.
In 8 years, President George Bush and his Illuminist neocons have taken us from a global leader to pauper status. Never in our history as a nation has a president done more to destroy our country.
A recent former Citigroup employee, who is a subscriber, says the slashing of ATM withdrawal limits is due to fraud, particularly in the NYC area. If Citi were trying to conserve cash they would have put some limits on the teller line. The limits only affect the ATM withdrawals. Our speculation was incorrect.

Initial drop size and velocity distributions, after complete disintegration of coaxial liquid jets, were determined by phase Doppler measurements. The measured radial distributions of Sauter mean diameter (SMD) were compared with the photographs of the disintegrating liquid jet. The SMD distribution was found to be strongly affected by the structure and behavior of the preceding liquid intact jet. The results showed that SMD increases with increasing liquid supply pressure as well as with decreasing air supply pressure. The axial measurement stations were determined from the photographs of the coaxial liquid jet at very short distances (1–2 mm) downstream of the observed break-up locations. The droplets accelerated at these regions under the influence of the air velocity. Smaller droplets were found to reach higher velocities because of their larger drag-to-momentum ratio. In general, minimum droplet mean velocities were found at the center, and the maximum velocities were near the spray boundary. Size velocity correlations show that the velocity of larger drops did not change with drop size. Drop rms velocity distributions have double peaks whose radial positions coincide with the maximum mean velocity gradients.

Qantas business lounge opening at Perth Airport0:53
The new Qantas business lounge opening at Perth Airport, which set a new standard in airport lounges, with an Australia-first pizza bar, make-your-own juice station and wine bar.
WHILE some lucky ducks get to frequently fly at the pointy end of the plane for work, most of us would have to do some serious saving to afford it.
A recent search for business class tickets showed they cost about four times as much as a flexible economy ticket.
Qantas return flights from Sydney to Perth for April 2016, for example, will set you back around $2500 for business class seats and about $570 for economy tickets.
So what happens behind that business class curtain and is the experience worth the price?
It starts long before you fasten your seat belt with staff attending special service training at the 5,000 sq m Qantas Centre of Service Excellence in Sydney.
The giant room features a range of "customer experience zones" dedicated to the airline's first class, business class, premium economy and economy offerings.
Then there's the food.
Qantas has just launched a new menu designed by chefs from Neil Perry's Rockpool restaurant and it includes a seafood bouillabaisse and a white fish-of-the-day with Jiang Xi chilli sauce, greens, and fragrant rice.
I tried the soup during a behind the scenes tour of the training centre and it was a standout.
It is a first for the airline — mussels haven't appeared before on the domestic travel menu.
The airlines association with celebrity chef Perry means passengers are increasingly looking for the latest food trends and offerings, said Qantas's head of product and service delivery, Helen Gray.
"We call it the MasterChef effect," she said. "There is a much greater emphasis on freshness and seasonality. People are much more knowledgeable on the flavours and trends around the world I think."
But Ms Gray said the carrier was not abandoning traditional comfort foods — it still has options like a hearty pork cutlet and lasagne available on its menu rotation.
Feeding the airline's well-heeled travellers is a massive logistics exercise that involves planning using giant spreadsheets, said Ms Gray.
To ensure frequent flyers rarely see the same meal twice, the airline has developed a sophisticated process for planning its in-flight menus.
There are always 220 meal options available on the domestic network at any one time. The airline changes its domestic menu every six months and in the business class cabin there are six variations of menus for each of the four different times of day — breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper — with three choices available for each main meal. Hence the lucky business class travellers couldn't possibly get bored at meal time.
In-flight menus are also co-ordinated with the lounges to try to ensure that, for example, passengers are not served beef in the lounge and beef on board.
And if incredible food is not enough, here are some of the other perks you'll find in business class.
You can have a meal and a shower before you board the plane. Imagine walking onto a flight and being already prepared for bed.
Last on, first off. That goes for your luggage as well. That annoying line through customs and immigration is really just a short stroll for business and first class. Sometimes there's no queuing at all.
Oh, the loo is so exclusive.
Fancy a glass of champagne as you arrive on board? Of course you do. And in business you don't have to wait for the trolley to come along or the flight to be in the air.
Feel like a sleep? Rather than trying to sleep upright like a cow, long-haul business class passengers and those flying through the night across the country get to put their seat horizontal.
All business class passengers on international flights are given a pair of chic, dark grey PJs to wear on the flight. Serious business classers zip straight to the bathroom as soon as the charcoal PJs are handed to them for a quick changeover. Around 80 per cent of passengers actually put them on, according to Qantas.
Qantas business class seats come with a screen dividing each chair. That handy feature means you don't have to look at the person seated next to you.
Transferring from economy to business, for example on a one way flight from Sydney to Perth, will only set you back 10,000 points on a flexible fare or 20,000 on a discount economy fare.
While it doesn't happen often, there are plenty of stories around about people who have managed to get an upgrade to business for free. Read about how to get an upgrade here.
So the question remains, is it worth it? Yes (if you've got the cash, that is).

Hosted by the bookdragonslair.com this challenge was a complete no-brainer for two reasons: 1. I read a lot of eBooks and 2. it allows for challenge crossovers. I don't want to cause myself too much stress and the fact that books that I read will count in two places is really appealing (of course one day I would love to have the personal challenge of no crossovers!)
With that in mind I think that I can comfortably pick a slightly higher level than with my previous challenges and I shall sign up for 'Megabyte' or 25 books.

Struggles make us hungry.
For a long time I queried agents and got rejected. And by a long time I mean years.
Then I got an agent!! She helped me navigate my very first publishing contract, and then…. she ended up abandoning me right before my first book released.
She abandoned all of her clients unexpectedly. The timing for me happened to be really bad.
I had no idea what I was doing and I had my book releasing. Also, my mother-in-law was very ill (cancer).
The struggle was real.
I was scared. Confused. Angry. And this was supposed to be the best time of my life as an author, right? I mean, my first book was getting published!
It was a great time. I enjoyed the experience of my first book hitting the shelves. Amidst the obstacles, I still found great joy. I might argue I was able to enjoy it even more.
The darkness of my mother-in-law's impending death and the fear of my agent abandoning me let me see the light that much more.
It made me want to work harder and harder to make everything a success despite the frightening obstacles. Almost to outweigh the sadness.
It pushed me.
My mother-in-law got to see a print copy of my first ever novel shortly before she died. Romantic Times gave the story four stars. I eventually got a great agent who has stuck with me for years now. And I learned a ton, which I now hope to share with other newbie authors I interact with and mentor.
Overall. It turned out to be an amazing experience. One that made me resilient.
You can do it, my friends. Stay strong through the struggle.

Your entire body and also of your family is continually under assault from various types of bacteria along with other viruses, but you will be able to truly protect your loved ones from infections by using tee tre oil. This multi-faceted oil could be used to cure and prevent a number of contagious diseases that would otherwise call for the use of strong chemical substances or even steroids to control them.
The Australian aborigines had been the first to uncover the antibacterial as well as antifungal properties of teetree oil or even tea tree oil as it is usually called all over the globe. They utilized the crushed leaves of the http://theteatreeoil.com melaleuca alternifolia plant over skin boils, cuts, wounds, as well as scrapes, and found that this oil delivered excellent results in not merely curing but additionally in protecting against many other bacterial infections from approaching their bodies. Gradually, the melaluca oil made its way over to a number of other countries around the world and you as well might have observed several beauty shops providing a wide range of beauty products that feature this multipurpose oil.
Since tee tre oil delivers incredible results whenever used to cure numerous skin infections, you would probably have observed the presence of this amazing oil inside soaps, ointments, lotions, creams, shampoos, hand washes, and even within mouthwashes. The leading element of teetree oil is its ability to beat off an array of microbial assaults without doing harm to your bodys own healthy cells. This makes it an ideal all natural fighter to help treat dandruff, acne, yeast infection, thrush infections, lice, athletes foot, and even gingivitis, amongst a number of other infections. This natural oil replaces numerous strong chemicals and even steroids that might otherwise be required to treat such infections. The very best aspect is that tea tree oil works for young children and little babies too, provided you dilute the product to the desired concentrations.
Since there are numerous health and beauty shops as well as online retailers that provide various brands of items that promise to cure and prevent various skin infections through items laced with tee tre oil, it might be a good idea to study each and every item in detail before purchasing it. You should look over all other ingredients found in every product that you propose to purchase to confirm if it is indeed tea tree oil, that will work on your body. The product should not incorporate unwanted strong chemical compounds or even steroids that can cause undesired side-effects while canceling out the positive attributes from this fantastic oil.

Maloney and Kvist grab wins in Euro 2016 qualifiers.
- Maloney scores winner for Scotland v Republic of Ireland.
- Kvist and Denmark come from behind to win 3-1.
- Al Habsi and Figueroa also in action.
The main attraction for Wigan Athletic fans in the November internationals was at Celtic Park as Shaun Maloney scored the crucial goal in a 1-0 victory over James McClean's Republic of Ireland.
After a fascinating first half and heated start to the second, a short corner played to Maloney was curled into the right hand corner of the goal, akin to the midfielder's winning strike against Manchester United for Latics at the DW Stadium in 2012.
Maloney's goal sends Scotland level with Ireland and Germany on seven points in Group D, just three points behind leaders Poland. Both Maloney and McClean completed 90 minutes.
Following the game McClean posted a photo of the pair at full time, saying: "Although he's a team mate, it was a please playing against someone I had on the back of my Celtic jersey as a youngster."
In Group I William Kvist and Denmark came from behind away to Serbia to win 3-1, thanks to a double from Nicklas Bendtner either side of Simon Kjaer.
Denmark now sit top of the group on seven points, one above Portugal.
Earlier in the day Ali Al Habsi featured for Oman in a 0-0 draw against UAE in the 2014 Gulf Cup, with Maynor Figueroa captain of Honduras in a 6-0 defeat to Japan.
Under 18s goalkeeper Owen Evans has featured twice so far for Wales' Under 19s this month. Wednesday saw the young Welsh side beaten 2-1 by Portugal, with today's result a 4-0 defeat against Denmark.

Harvard vs. Princeton
Harvard vs. Quinnipiac
The Harvard women's hockey team returns to Bright-Landry Hockey Center for a pair of ECAC match-ups this weekend. (Elan Kawesch)
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Back in the winning column after a thorough victory over Dartmouth on Tuesday, the No. 10/10 Harvard women's hockey team is geared up for more ECAC action as Princeton and No. 4/4 Quinnipiac come to the Bright-Landry Hockey Center. The Crimson (4-2-2, 3-1-1 ECAC) squares off with the Tigers (6-6-1, 4-3-0 ECAC) at 7 p.m. Friday, before a top-10 showdown with the Bobcats (13-0-2, 6-0-1 ECAC) at 4 p.m. Saturday.
Ivy League Digital Network
After an incredibly successful inaugural year that saw over 1,000 events streamed live, The Ivy League Digital Network has returned for 2014-15, providing fans with unprecedented coverage of the Ivy League.
Multiple subscription options are available to fans including school-specific and league-wide passes. To learn more about the Ivy League Digital Network or to sign-up today, click here.
Social Stream
Use the all new Social Stream on GoCrimson.com to stay connected with the Crimson on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube this year. The Social Stream brings the conversation from all three platforms into one convenient location, allowing fans of all Harvard Athletics teams to monitor the action in real time.
Sticks Flying
The Crimson is unbeaten when scoring first this season (2-0-2), but has shown it can come back after falling behind early by securing two wins after opponents found the back of the net first. Harvard also relies on outshooting its foes, going 4-1-1 when taking more shots.
Top-10 Tilts
Harvard's scuffle with Quinnipiac on Saturday will be the fourth top-10 showdown of the season for the Crimson, and the second versus a top-5 opponent. Harvard is 0-1-2 versus ranked foes this season, falling to No. 1 Boston College and drawing then-No. 7 Clarkson and then-No. 7 Boston University, all in November. The last time Harvard defeated a top-5 team was last season when the Crimson went into Lynah Rink and toppled No. 3 Cornell, 3-1.
Line 'Em Up
Over the past four games, Miye D'Oench, Samantha Reber and Hillary Crowe each played on the same line. Last year, the triad accounted for 96 points on 45 goals and 51 assists combined. In eight games of 2014-15, the three skaters have already tallied 28 points (12-16—28) as the top-3 scorers on the ice for Harvard.
The Daily Special
The Harvard special teams have varied this season, allowing eight power play goals while scoring four, but versus Dartmouth, the Crimson was perfect. D'Oench knocked in Harvard's only power play opportunity, while the Harvard penalty kill was a perfect 3-for-3 against the Big Green. On the season, Harvard is 25-percent with the skater advantage – good enough for third in the nation behind Minnesota and Dartmouth – and 73-percent on the kill. Combined, Harvard sits at No. 5 overall with a 56.1-percent mark on special teams.
The Tale of Two Laings
Freshman Lexie Laing has started well for Harvard, along with her fellow rookies on the ice, accounting for four points (2-3—5) to start her Crimson campaign. Laing's two goals – both power play scores – have come when sister Brianna Laing has earned the start in the net. Brianna has picked up two wins on the season: versus Rensselaer and versus Northeastern; Lexie scored Harvard's second goal in both of those contests.
Scouting Princeton
After jumping out to a 6-1-1 start to 2014-15, the Tigers have tapered off with five consecutive losses – but four of those five losses have come versus top-10 opponents. Princeton dropped a 7-3 decision to St. Lawrence, before falling to No. 5 Clarkson, No. 4 Quinnipiac and twice to No. 2 Minnesota. The Tigers' best win of the year came in a barn-burning, 5-4 victory over then-No. 6 Cornell in Ithaca on Oct. 31.
Molly Contini is the most potent scorer for the Tigers on offense, garnering 12 points on a team-best six goals and six assists, but defender Kelsey Koelzer's 11 helpers along with four goals gives her 15 points as a viable threat at the point. Cristin Shanahan (4-2—6), Brianna Leahy (3-4—7) and Jaimie McDonell (3-8—11) all have posed problems for goaltenders as well.
In between the pipes, junior Kimberly Newell has seen all but one game for the Tigers, making 343 saves on 373 shots – accumulating a .920 save percentage and a 2.50 GAA. Her 5-6-1 record includes a shutout in a 0-0 tie versus RIT.
Scouting Quinnipiac
The Bobcats enter the weekend as the ECAC's best team, and one of only two undefeated programs left along with No. 1 Boston College. After a win over UConn to start the season and a split series with Penn State the weekend after, QU went on a eight-game win streak, during which it outscored opponents, 29-3. St. Lawrence, which has wins over Harvard, Clarkson and is the only team not to lose to BC, drew the Bobcats on Nov. 22, before QU started another win streak which sits at three in a row.
The high-powered Bobcat offense sports six skaters who have registered at least 10 points on the year, led by freshman forward Taylar Cianfarano (8-7—15). Nicole Connery (7-5—12) and Emma Woods (7-4—11) also have a tendency to beat goaltenders night in and night out.
In goal for Quinnipiac stands the ECAC Goaltender of the Month of November, Chelsea Laden. The senior has started 14-of-15 games this season, compiling a meager 0.57 GAA (yielding just eight goals), while making 190 saves for a .960 save percentage.
Up Next
Harvard takes the rest of December off into the New Year before hitting the ice at Brown and Yale on Jan. 2 and 3, respectively.

VIDEO: Extrication crash involving a DUI charge at Palatine Road and Schoenbeck Road near MacArthur Middle School and Anne Sullivan School.
Arlington Heights police and firefighter/paramedics responded about 11:36 PM Wednesday to a report of crash with injuries at Palatine Road and Schoenbeck Road Arlington Heights, IL. Police and firefighter/paramedics received a report that a woman was trapped in a car with roof damage following an apparent crash.
The female patient in the car was extricated within about ten minutes. She was transported to Northwest Community Hospital in Arlington Heights.
The sedan vehicle was found on the north side of the westbound Palatine Frontage Road, just east of Schoenbeck Road. The vehicle was facing southwest. A large piece of metal believed to be from the car was found on the pavement of the eastbound right express lane of Palatine Road, just west of Schoenbeck Road. The vehicle apparently hit another vehicle — possibly a semi-trailer truck before coming to rest on the other side of Schoenbeck Road. The vehicle also possibly rolled over and ended upright on its wheels.
Very early this morning police were investigating whether the driver of the car was intoxicated, and later charged a driver involved in the crash with DUI.

Today I would like to given quick introduction on PHP's magic constants. PHP provides a set of predefined constants and which are available on any script which it runs.
You can also create your own constants by using define()or const. But custom defined function will not available globally you should auto load or include the file where the screen runs.
The magic constants names are reserved and with placing two underscores before and after the constant's word representation.
You can also get the list of defined constants by using built in php's function get_defined_constants().Here is the few Magic Constants :
Magic constants are very using while debugging application :
if ( $name == '' ) { echo ( '$name has no value on line ' . __LINE__ . ' of [' . __FILE__ . ']' ) ; }
While including other scripts its good to use ' __FILE__' constant:
require_once ( dirname ( __FILE__ ) . '/config/database.php' ) ;
You can use dirname(dirname(__FILE__))to get parent directory.
I hope you like this Post, Please feel free to comment below, your suggestion and problems if you face - we are here to solve your problems.

A man stabbed to death in a fight in south-west London has been named locally as 29-year-old Nathaniel Armstrong.
Mr Armstrong was stabbed at the junction of Gowan Avenue and Munster Road, in Fulham, in the early hours of Saturday and died at the scene.
He was the cousin of Good Morning Britain's Alex Beresford, the weatherman's agent confirmed.
Mr Beresford said the family was "so shocked with the news".
"Nathaniel was a bright young man with his whole life ahead of him and this tragedy is yet one more example of a needless life lost to knife crime", he said.
A friend of Mr Armstrong, Tyrell Paisley added: "He was a very kind person and the best way to describe him would be a gentle giant.
"He definitely wasn't the type to get into trouble."
Mr Armstrong was killed 11 days after Mr Beresford made an on-air speech about knife crime.
He said he grew up in communities affected by knife crime and said prison was not a deterrent to attackers.
"Some of these boys, they don't fear prison. If you don't change the environment it won't change anything and that's the key thing," he said.
People have taken to social media to pay tribute to Mr Armstrong.
Greg Hands, the Conservative MP for Chelsea and Fulham, said he had thanked a "local hero" who gave CPR and a group of women from New Zealand who also stopped to help.
Mr Armstrong's next of kin has been informed, police said.
No arrests have yet been made.
Det Ch Insp Glen Lloyd, said: "We are appealing for information from those who were out and about in the area at the time of the attack and saw anything of note.
"My team is particularly keen to trace a light-skinned, black male, approximately 6ft tall who was seen near the scene at the time."

Lyme disease is rapidly growing in Michigan. (see table below) In 2000-2004 there were fewer than 30 cases reported. By 2016, there were 166 reported cases. The Lyme disease correlates with the spread of blacklegged ticks in our area, which have been reported in 24 counties in Michigan alone. Female ticks can lay up to 2,000 eggs and love grassy and sandy areas and woodlands, which makes sense they thrive in Michigan.
To prevent tick attachment and the spread of Lyme disease there are 3 things that can be done:
1) Give your dog a flea and tick preventative year round, like Nexgard. That is our staff's favorite.
2) Check yourself and dog for ticks frequently when outside, especially in grassy, sandy, and woodland areas.
3) If you feel your dog's lifestyle is a tick risk, a Lyme disease vaccine can be given. It is a two vaccine series and lasts one year. The vaccine is available here at Fountain City Veterinary Hospital.

MEMORY What is memory and how does it work? If you consult a dictionary, you will find that the term 'memory' refers to the ability to remember or retain what 32 Developing models of cognition has been learned. Memory also refers to the actual knowledge held in remembrance. In other words, memory refers both to the 'place' where information is held, and also to the stored information. Researchers in the fields of psychology and education have elaborated on these definitions and have also attempted to explain how memory operates.
A strategy is a conscious or automatic cognitive act, or systematic routine that enables information to be stored in, or retrieved from memory. Strategies organise information into usable units that have meaning, although the repertoire of stored and available strategies may differ from person to person, in the same way that one person's recollections of an event will be different to another's. e. breaking up the numbers into familiar chunks). STRATEGIES As we have just indicated, strategies refer to the many ways in which we take in (encode), store and retrieve (decode) information – hence, in your reading, you may encounter terms such as memory strategies, cognitive strategies, coding strategies, and information processing strategies.

After finding $1,580, Overland Park woman tracks down owner to return it
Good thing for Paul Riekhof that Holli Williams is no Mr. Potter.
Like the crotchety, greedy banker from "It's a Wonderful Life," Williams could have kept the $1,580 in lost cash that fluttered across her car as she drove through Prairie Village on Tuesday, running Christmas errands.
Instead, Williams returned the money to the Prairie Village man who had left the cash in an envelope on top of his car as he drove to see a movie on his 53rd wedding anniversary.
"I was sick to my stomach thinking this would ruin someone's Christmas," Williams, 55, of Overland Park, said Wednesday morning after returning the cash.
It was nothing short of a Christmas miracle for Riekhof, who intended to deposit the money from the sale of his brother-in-law's vehicle.
"It was just wonderful fortune," Riekhof said. "It proves that there's awfully good people still out there today."
Williams was driving east on Somerset Drive with her daughter when she saw what might have been blue coupons dancing across the windshield of her car. On second thought, she thought it might be cash.
She braked. Cash it was — bills had blown across three lawns.
"It was like a cloud of money blowing across the street," Williams said. "We were running in traffic picking up $100 bills."
Williams had only one clue to the rightful owner — a generic counter deposit slip without any personal information, but with the name of a bank.
She called the bank. They told her the money was technically hers, although they would check to see whether there were any inquiries about lost money.
She then placed a report with the Prairie Village Police Department, telling authorities only that she had found a large sum of cash but not disclosing the specific amount.
Meanwhile, Riekhof was furiously searching for the money, going so far as to retrace his trip to the movie theater in hopes of finding the cash-filled envelope.
"We looked everywhere in the house and couldn't find it anywhere."
Riekhof later filed a report with Prairie Village police. They in turn gave his phone number to Williams.
At 7:30 a.m. Wednesday, Riekhof received a call from Williams. They arranged for him to pick up the cash — 15 $100 bills and four $20 bills — at her workplace in Olathe.
"I just had this overwhelming feeling. I couldn't believe someone had found it," Riekhof said. "I just hope something very good happens to her. It is a wonderful Christmas."

BYU women's volleyball team ranked No. 1 in nation
brownderby Salt Lake City, UTSept. 11, 2018 12:59 p.m.
It is interesting to observe how friendly and positive the comments are when discussing volleyball as compared with football.
Bigger Bubba Herriman, UTSept. 10, 2018 8:06 p.m.
Who cares about football when the volleyball team is playing so well?
carver Enterprise, UTSept. 10, 2018 7:10 p.m.
shout out to Riley Lyman, 2A valleyball mvp. Enterprise High School grad. What an awesome oppertunity for a small town girl. GO RYLEY! GO BYU!
Lets check the facts Santa Fe, NMSept. 10, 2018 6:25 p.m.
Well done so far, congratulations.
metamoracoug metamora, ILSept. 10, 2018 5:29 p.m.
I'm so excited! This is an amazing team. Currently 8-0. Defeated 3 top 25 teams. Have lost only 4 sets so far this season. Do they deserve a #1 ranking? Yes! I anticipate Heather Olmstead winning percentage cracking 90% very soon. I can hardly wait for the Thursday night match against Utah!
brownderby Salt Lake City, UTSept. 10, 2018 5:26 p.m.
BYU Volleyball, Women and Men have become my #1 spectator sport. Great sportsmanship, great home crowds, great skill sport. Just wish that somehow we could see road games.
FuzzyLogic VACAVILLE, CASept. 10, 2018 5:27 p.m.
This should be the hottest ticket on campus. These ladies are so good and fun to watch.
PRSomega Cedar Hills, UTSept. 10, 2018 4:11 p.m.
BYU Women's Volleyball...great to watch, great to cheer...I trust they will go all the way!
BYUalum South Jordan, UTSept. 10, 2018 4:06 p.m.
They've been #1 in my book since they mopped the floor against then #1 Stanford some time ago. Since then it's been WIN, WIN, WIN!
Congratulations BYU Women's Volleyball Team.
Go BYU Cougars!
Vanceone Provo, UTSept. 10, 2018 4:06 p.m.
On Thursday, BYU will take on Utah, who is ranked 21st. I'm hoping, of course, for a BYU sweep of the Utes in a crushing fashion, as it is the last ranked team BYU will play before conference. And then poor Weber State gets to face BYU later on this week.
Frankly, if BYU stays focused and humble, they could win every match until the tournament. They really are that good right now.
Go Cougars!
esodije ALBUQUERQUE, NMSept. 10, 2018 3:43 p.m.
Volleyball is too quirky a sport to expect the Cougs to stay at #1 for very long, but they've played extremely well so far this season.--great serve-receive and stellar coverage behind the hitters. I foresee another conference championship and a deeper-than-usual run in the NCAA tournament this year.
Boberino Farmington, UTSept. 10, 2018 3:18 p.m.
Congrats to the Cougars on the ranking. Certainly a good indicator of just how good they can be this season. Go Cougs!

Everybody knows that Tweety is always big news in the city, but it was completely confirmed this past week when our little yellow trendsetter was featured on NBC's Today Show. This weekend, Tweety will be rubbing feathers with the likes of Alicia Keys and Avril Lavigne at Z100s Jingle Ball, and the Today Show couldn't wait to give you the backstage gossip. Host Carolyn Gusoff gushed about how "beautiful" the Tweety yellow diamond pendant looked on the neck of Jingle Ball producer Samantha Haft-Simon, who (quite rightly) proclaimed that "Yellow is the new black!"
Seeing as Tweety is going to have a big weekend, you should relax and enjoy yours too with the help of this week's Tweety Weekend Cocktail Sendoff. You can literally shake off those long-week blues by shaking up a yellow Grand Mararita. It's a delicious twist on America's most popular cocktail, and it's Tweety approved!
1 Part GRAND MARNIER
2 Parts Jose Cuervo Tradicional
1 Part Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice
Sugar to taste
Wet the rim of a cocktail glass with lime juice and dip into salt. Fill a shaker with ice. Combine all ingredients. Shake and pour into the glass. Garnish with a lime wedge.

Fresno State
Bulldogs looking up in polls
SALT LAKE CITY -- Defending champion Boise State has been picked to repeat in the Western Athletic Conference.
The Broncos went 8-0 in the conference last fall and has won six of the last seven WAC titles. Boise State was No. 1 in both the coaches' and media polls released Wednesday as the
WAC media days opened in Salt Lake City.
Boise State received all but one No. 1 vote by the coaches, who were not allowed to vote for their own team. Nevada was picked second and received the only other No. 1 vote in the coaches' poll.
Fresno State and Louisiana Tech tied for No. 3 in the coaches' poll.
Hawaii was picked fifth, followed by San Jose State,
Utah State, New Mexico State and Idaho.
The media poll was nearly the same. Louisiana Tech was slightly behind Fresno State for fourth and the media voters picked New Mexico to finish last, one spot behind eighth-place Idaho.
Nevada quarterback and former Pitman star Colin Kaepernick was picked to repeat as Offensive Player of the Year.

Fiorella's for dinner tonight!
Monthly Archives: July 2012
Sebastian's rotisserie chicken
For just over $8, Sebastian's offers a juicy hot half rotisserie chicken on a bed of roasted vegetables. There's red and green peppers, mushrooms, carrots, water chestnuts, potatoes, and corn. Just add some salt, pepper, and ketchup and go at it! Not bad at all. Very filling and just what I needed today.
Lobster season!
In case you haven't noticed, lobster is dirt cheap these days. Normally, paying $5.99 per pound for lobster is a great deal and you'd splurge by buying 2 per person. These days I'm getting lobster for under $4 per pound!
There are many ways to prepare lobster: stir fried, deep fried, in a sandwich, boiled, steamed, etc…
My preferred approach is steaming. Lobster comes out very tasty this way. The key to getting all of the meat out is of course to use a lobster cracker thingy (what do you call those?). The first thing to do is break the lobster in half – between the head and shell (sorta the middle length wise). To get the tail piece out, you'd bend and snap the tail fans back/upwards…then you push the meat out of the big end. The claws are straight forward. Don't forget the best part…the icky green brains (at least thats what I call it) under the head!

A Plethora of People Pissed, Perhaps from the Post-Prandial Party Partly Planned around the "P"
Soundtrack: "Hey Boy Hey Girl" by the Chemical Brothers and "Anarchy in the UK" by the Sex Pistols
15 December, 2002
If I were to choose the one moment when our circle of friends--the Room K group, though not all of us were in Room K--actually realized we'd become friends, there's no question that it was the P-Party, a scant ten days before Christmas. I'd been kind of distant friends with Ylva and Alissa pretty much since they came to the hostel a week or two after me, but I'd mostly focused on drinking heavily with James, John, Dominique, and occasionally Sarah, and so Ylva and Alissa mostly saw me stumble in drunk and fall asleep as I woke everyone else up.
But after John and Dominique moved out (though not together), James leaving for Spain and Australia, and in the rubble following Sarah's goodbye party, I'd discovered that my roommates were fairly cool people. Nick moved into Room K as my previous friends were moving out and scattering around the globe, and Annica soon followed. With Jeremy lurking in the background, the circle was mostly complete.
So on the second Saturday of December, we put it to the test. The P-Party followed the cocktail party tradition I'd been introduced to at Halloween. Fill the dining room with a hostel's worth of people dressed in cheap costumes thrown together with energy and dilligence and not much else, get them incredibly liquored up out of plastic trashcans and industrial sized punch bowls, and have them dance on anything breakable they can find. Hostel Stu will either a) dress as a woman, b) strip at some point in the evening, or c) wear something so clear/short/non-existent so he doesn't even have to strip. The music will be free, the choices will tend towards "dance music," and the majority of the last one's standing will be Aussies.

Viking, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Mid-Con Petroleum, LLC, Mid-Con Drilling, LLC and Mid-Con Development, owns a majority working interest in over 60 producing oil leases with access to the mineral rights (oil and gas) in Kansas, comprising over 6,000 acres of property. Counties in which the leases are located include Ellis, Rooks, Allen, Woodson, Miami, Franklin Riley, Geary and Wabaunsee. Viking's ownership includes an undivided interest in all oil and gas wells, equipment and fixtures located upon the leased properties and used in connection with oil and gas operations.
Viking's assets in Kansas are operated by experienced operators in the region, including: (i) Haas Petroleum LLC (www.haaspetroleum.com), a fourth-generation oil and gas company; and (ii) S&B Operating, LLC, a subsidiary of Kansas Resource Development Company. Both operators have decades of experience in the oil & gas sector, and specialize in formulating and operating water-flood enhanced oil recovery programs.
Relationship with Commercial Banks:
Viking, through certain of its subsidiaries, has credit facilities with CrossFirst Bank and Cornerstone Bank, commercial lending institutions with expertise in serving the needs of participants in the oil, gas and energy industry, particularly in the mid-continent region.
Development Potential:
Viking's leases in Kansas produce oil from various formations and zones, including the Cherokee, Conglomerate, Viola and Simpson Sandstone, at depths ranging from 600 ft. to 3,300 ft. and offer the potential for several in-field drilling locations. Other target formations and sands include Arbuckle, Kansas City, Topeka Limestone and Kinderhook. There is also tremendous upside potential through the enhancement of existing wells using proven methods.

Who's up for a challenge? A tiny, little $5 challenge to help kids in need with back to school supplies?
I think *most* people can spare $5 to pick up a few back to school supply deals. $5 can buy a lot right now with all the great back to school supply sales.
This is what I bought for $5
I think I did great with my $5 this week! I only spent $4.98 on all these supplies at Office Max.
It helps if you check out the sales ad ahead of time but you can also just grab the ad when you walk in and scan the front page for the best deals. In addition Arizona deal bloggers have been doing round ups of the school supply sales, make it easy to find the best bargains at each store. Check out their posts for this week: Bargain Believer and The Cents'able Shoppin!
Not sure where to donate the school supplies to? Check out my list of Arizona Back to School Drives, and if you are out of state most food pantries and schools will happily accept school supplies!
$5 is likely what you spend at Starbucks for one drink.
$5 is less than the price of a matinée movie.
I really think a lot people can spare $5.
I'm going to challenge myself the next few weeks to spend $5 on a few extra school supplies. I'll share what I bought on Fridays and would love to hear what you bought!

Everyone plays a role at our family gatherings, but I'd be fibbing if I said I cook! My role is Master of Ceremonies. I help start off and facilitate certain little traditions we have. For one, we go around the room and everyone shares what he/she is grateful for. Then we do an affirmation all around, with each guest saying something nice about someone else at the table. We all know "why" we come together at Thanksgiving, but sharing it out loud makes it a much deeper experience as a family.
Wishing you all love and fullness this holiday!<< Back to our blog

Fake and Foregeries - Technology Fall 2014/
"Here, we can make out vertical lines in what could be a grid," Mottaz says, looking up from the shiny white instrument providing a three-dimensional view of the painting.
That could signal the painting is a fake, but artists themselves also use the technique to copy their own work onto different formats, so more tests are needed, she says.
Mottaz and her colleagues at the Fine Arts Expert Institute (FAEI) use cutting-edge scientific methods like
"When you buy an apartment, you always get an appraisal first. But in the art world, until recently, you could buy works for 10 million euros without sufficient documentation," says FAEI chief Yann Walther.
But that is changing amid soaring prices in an art market where works worth an estimated $60 billion change hands each year.
The ballooning amounts up for grabs have also hiked the incentive for art forgers, and scientists like Walther and Mottaz are increasingly being called upon to supplement efforts by traditional art experts and conservationists to authenticate works.
Half artwork in circulation fake
The art world has in recent years been rocked by forgery scandals, revealing fake works attributed to a long line of masters, including Paul Gauguin, Marc Chagall, Jackson Pollock and Leger.
Experts estimate a full half of all artworks in circulation today are fake -- a number that is difficult to verify but that Walther says is, if anything, an underestimate. ... more

The Key To Finding Your Voice At Nielsen
Marianela is a Senior Solutions Architect for Nielsen's Technology Organization, based in Oldsmar, Florida. Nielsen has given her the trust and accountability she needed to raise her voice as a woman, feel confident about her contributions and grow her career.
Having your own voice and feeling confident as a woman can be hard in a male-dominated field. Throughout my career in computer science I kept asking, "Where are all the women?" My teams were always packed with guys, and I felt insecure and anxious about being taken seriously. At some point, however, I had to make a choice between being someone else's shadow or having my own voice and building my confidence around it.
I joined Nielsen looking for new challenges and an opportunity to advance in my career—and it was definitely at first a challenge. The company was going through a lot of changes at the time, and I initially felt completely lost. However, the flexibility at Nielsen allowed me to redefine my role and build the right team to come up with the right solutions and ideas.
Technology is a very complex and constantly changing environment, and the Technology Organization at Nielsen is no exception. With so much technology to play around with, many solutions to build, all the possible data sources in the market, and hundreds of ways to access the information, we had to rapidly organize ourselves and start measuring our actions to be successful and efficient. We developed big data solutions that enabled much faster access to insights and, consequently, more efficient and transparent relationships with our clients.
Keeping your team and clients motivated and engaged during the process is not easy. They have to believe in you and to build that trust, you must have a voice. In my case, being transparent with the people around me and conveying trust in everything I deliver is key. Nielsen has given me something that no other company has given me: an atmosphere where I can feel comfortable being myself.
By creating such an atmosphere, I've been able to network with people from all around the world, develop leadership skills that help me bring out the best from each person on my team, and take advantage of the great accountability and trust that the company grants me in order to raise my voice and build confidence around each project I work on.
I feel proud and excited for the work I do, and I know my team feels the same way. We all have a voice, and we value how different and unique we are, because that's the best way to keep growing and innovating. As a team, we never forget that, in the end, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts!

The Hepatitis C virus is a fairly new entity for professional practitioners of medicine, since it was identified as recently as 1989.
TransmissionThe virus is mainly transmitted through transfusion of contaminated blood or using contaminated equipment such as needles. Most of the Hepatitis C cases are intravenous drug users, who share needles. However, unlike Hepatitis A and B, cases of transmission of Hepatitis C virus from a mother to a child or by sexual intercourse is very rare.
Incubation period
Usually six to seven weeks.
Hepatitis C is usually asymptomatic or may show mild symptoms of viral hepatitis such as fever, lack of appetite and weakness. But, if the affected person consumes alcohol regularly or is a chronic carrier of the infection, he may develop Cirrhosis of liver or liver cancer later in life.
Prevention measures
- Screening donated blood for Hepatitis C virus before transfusion.
- The most popular drug used to treat Hepatitis C is Interferon, which is very expensive and has to be administered several times a week for several months.
- Hepatitis C vaccine has not been discovered yet.
