Markets on edge for election day and beyond
Markets could be volatile no matter who wins Tuesday's presidential election. Here's what to expect if Obama wins, if Romney wins or -- worst-case scenario -- if we don't know right away.
The polls -- and the analyses of the polls -- give the nod for a very narrow win to President Barack Obama, especially after a relatively decent jobs report on Friday. Mitt Romney's camp says he's going to be the clear winner.
We'll see. There are some hints from history on what may happen.
Obama wins
If Obama wins relatively clearly -- that is, the results aren't disputed and end up in the courts -- the stock market may well tumble on Wednesday. It did after he was elected in 2008: The Dow Jones industrials ($INDU) were off 7.1% by the end of the week, with the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ($INX) off 7.4% and the Nasdaq Composite Index ($COMPX) down 7.5%.
Yes, those are real numbers, but they may have had less to do with the president-elect than with the ongoing financial crash of 2008.
Obama and Wall Street have an edgy relationship, even though one of the great stock market rallies in history began in March 2009 after he took office. Many on Wall Street have spent millions of dollars trying to push Obama out.
There is a chance for a different outcome. If Obama wins, it means Ben Bernanke will probably stay on as chairman of the Federal Reserve Board until his term expires in 2014. And the Fed's accommodative monetary policy -- the promise of low interest rates into 2015 -- will continue.
Moreover, the odds for a solution to the fiscal cliff -- the combination of tax increases and spending cuts -- will increase. To do nothing won't help Republicans. That will be bullish for stocks.
The first scenario is more likely, but the second is worth thinking about.
Romney wins
If Romney wins the election clearly, the stock market may jump. He himself predicted it would when he made his now-famous comment about 47% of the population seeing themselves as victims.
Our conjecture here is based on the market's reaction to George W. Bush's re-election in 2004. The major indexes jumped about 3% that week.
That return was about all the Dow did for that year; the S&P 500 and Nasdaq ended the year up more than 8%.
Wall Street will be delighted in a Romney win because, the theory goes, regulation will be rolled back and Obamacare will be repealed. And there is the prospect that Romney's vows to fix the tax code will mean lower taxes for the wealthy.
It is possible -- if unlikely -- that a Romney win won't cheer the Street. One issue is Bernanke, who would be pressured by many in Congress to quit and go back to Princeton. Two issues will go through investors' minds: Who will replace Bernanke and when would a new Fed leadership then start raising interest rates? Rising rates are death to stocks.
There's a third issue. Romney is an experienced and successful business executive. But what is not clear is whether he has the political subtlety to convince a tea party-dominated Republican majority in the House of Representatives (and maybe the Senate as well) to trim government spending carefully without tipping the economy into recession. He insists he can lead, but Congress is not a business. There are lots and lots of agendas and scores to be settled publicly and privately.
The tea party scares Wall Street. Look at the reaction in the debt-extension crisis in the summer and fall of 2011. The Dow fell as much as 6.9% before stabilizing in early October; the S&P 500 and Nasdaq were off about 8%.
There is no winner
This assumes that neither Obama nor Romney can come up with 270 electoral votes needed to win. Or results are delayed by the effects of Superstorm Sandy in the Northeast or Ohio.
No one wants this except political talk-show hosts. Least of all investors. When the 2000 Bush-Gore election ended without a clear winner, the Dow fell 3.2% that week, with the S&P 500 off 4.6% and the Nasdaq off 11.3%.
Admittedly, the dot-com bust had broken the 1990s bull market, and the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks were ahead.
But a soft economy and a weak stock market do not do well in extreme political uncertainty. Between Election Day 2000 and the market bottom in October 2002, the Dow fell 33%.
After the election??? The stock market has been on a roller coaster for the last 3 weeks. Vote Romney and the stock market will take off, vote Obama and the stock market will be a clusterf*ck for the next year. The people who make the stock market swing, don't trust Obama. Small business doesn't trust Obama ... the white middle class and white upper class doesn't trust Obama. So ... a vote for Obama is another nail in the economy's coffin and the stock market will follow where the economy goes.
If Obama is elected .... put your money in your matress and buy a good tent to sleep in!!
Personally, I have done terrific under the Obama presidency as far as my IRA, 401K and stock investments have gone. In fact, I have never done as well as the last four years. That being said, I am also one that believes that when a system has a foundation based on greed or profit, it must be tightly regulated or it will go amok. Libertarians and many republicans will disagree, but then again, de-regulation, which allowed so called independent rating agencies such as Fitch, Moody's and S&P to deliberately lie, rate junk mortgages AAA and send the country off the cliff, needs to be tightened and regulated much more severely than it is. Romney doesn't want that. That scares me. John Corzine, a democrat, who used deregulation to lose over a billion dollars out of his company and have no idea where the money went is proof. Bernie Madoff could not have done what he did were it not for continual pressure to deregulate starting from the Reagan administration moving forward. Not being a big fan of Obama, I am also a realist. Right wing deregulation policies collapsed our economic system into nearly a full depression. This will not get fixed overnight, as it took FDR many government programs including WPA, tighter regulations on banks and brokerage firms, CCC, over 15 years and a World War to get us out of the depression. Nearly all jobs during WWII were govt. or govt. related jobs . 4 years is far too short of time to expect the economy to flu****elf of the deregulating damage that sent us into collapse in 2008. Credit defaut swaps are still everywhere. Few of the crooks got put into jail or indicted for their theft under Obama, but even less would be held accountable under republicans or Romney. It doesn't look pretty in the future. Tax rates are far far too low. I was at a senior seminar the other day showing old folks with $65K/year in SS and pension checks and federal taxes of only $2200. That is only 3% taxes. We can't operate with most of the people paying little to nothing in taxes and parties thinking we need further tax cuts. Under Eisenhower and Kennedy, the top tax rate was 90%, but the govt. was not creating such debt from lack of funding.
The only bumpy road this country will be on is the fact the republican congress wants their way to make laws and to rule this country no matter who gets in office.
What needs to happen, if Congress doesn't work, they don't get paid.
There needs to be an oversight chair making sure congress is on the job doing the people's work with NO POLITICAL AGENDA.
LOBBYIST should not have offices within or any other bulding of the capitol. THEIR OFFICE SPACE IS PAID FOR BY TAXPAYERS.
If congress wants a phillabuster, they have to be present in chambers where there is public transparency of viewing whast is going on thru C-Span!
When congress is in session, all have to be present when a bill is presented that they are either a part-of or concerned about, and not in their private offices just listening to what is being said.... Seeing on C-span, the chambers almost empty with just a few congressmen and congressional workers present, gives the public the preception that congressmen ARE NOT ON THE JOB.
A more likely scenario - Romney wins by a narrow margin (more than likely) and Obama & Dems take to the courts to contest the election. It's mentioned only as a brief statement above but this could be a very real outcome. And the markets don't like uncertainty like this at all. Get ready for more polarization of our country from Obama and the poor loser Dems the next few day's.

The Center for Digital Initiatives has launched its first collection of Vermont maps, Historical Maps of Burlington and Winooski, Vermont. Ten of the most frequently used maps in Special Collections are now available online. .
The collection contains wall maps, city plans, and atlas sheets published between 1830-1890, a period when Burlington became the largest city in Vermont and a center of commerce and industry on Lake Champlain. The earlier maps show the village and rural sections of the town of Burlington, which extended from Lake Champlain on the east to Muddy Brook on the west, and from the Winooski River on the north and the town of Shelburne on the south. Later maps cover the City of Burlington, which was established in 1865 when most of the rural areas were set off to create the town of South Burlington. Maps of the neighboring village of Winooski are also included in the collection.
The maps show streets, buildings and lots, building owners' names and functions, parks, cemeteries, wards, railroads, and some natural features. Some of the maps include illustrations of prominent buildings and business directories.
A zoom function makes it possible to extract detailed information, such as the horse racing track at Howard Park in the southern part of town on the 1890 map of Burlington.
The University of Vermont as shown on one of the 1869 maps.
A section of the business directory on the 1869 map of Winooski Falls.
The UVM Libraries' Center for Digital Initiatives, in collaboration with the Vermont Folklife Center is pleased to announce the launch of the Martha Pellerin Collection of Franco-American Song.
The Martha Pellerin Collection of Franco-American Song, a collaboration with the Vermont Folklife Center, is an online database of French and English language songs drawn from two sources: nine song-book manuscripts collected by Martha Pellerin that date to the mid-twentieth century, and a series of six interviews conducted by Martha with Alberta Gagné of Highgate, Vermont in 1998. The original materials are from the Vermont Folklife Center's collection.
The songs that make up the collection include traditional French Canadian materials, commercial popular songs from Canada, France and the United States, family songs, personal songs, bawdy songs and religious songs. The Pellerin Collection is not a complete or inclusive document of Franco-American and French Canadian song. Rather it is a record of the performance repertoires of particular individuals of French Canadian descent, including Martha's parents Yvonne and Hervé, as well as those of Irma Labonté, Adelard Guay and Alberta Gagné.

Giving birth is the weapon humanity has against the constant attempt of nature to destroy it, the yin to death's yang. It is the way that people gain a measure of immortality in the physical world, a way to make sure that half of the genetic information that makes up who you are continues on after you're long gone. It's also an amazing way to bring together humanity, literally combining two separate human beings at a genetic level, knitting them together more closely than any relationship ever could.
"It's Alive" is one of those horror comedy films that I have always heard a lot about but haven't had a chance to watch until recently, when I found it on Netflix Instant Watch. Written and directed by Larry Cohen, the movie features a couple, Frank (John Ryan) and Lenore (Sharon Farrell), who give birth to a monsterous, mutant baby who kills people when frightened. Despite the ridiculous premise, the movie is funny, original and at times, pretty darn suspenseful.
I admit I may have been fooled. Or foolishly optimistic. Either way, the album "Human Resources" from up-and-comer It's Alive is not what I suspected it would be. Hearing the band's name, I hoped that I was in store for a monster-themed fun-loving alternative metal romp. Rather, I was faced with yet another album that wallows in quasi-emotional distress, complete with gravelly vocals meant to engender sympathy.
I wasn't even born yet when the original "It's Alive" came out but when I finally saw it the film taught me one thing, never ever EVER have a baby. They will kill you. They won't even wait until they grow up to do it. Nope, a newborn child will come out of the womb and go straight into slasher mode. Fear the children, people.

The remake of Larry Cohen's iconic mutant killer baby flick "It's Alive", about, um, a mutant killer baby, starring unknown James Murray and the vapid Bijou Phillips, goes straight to DVD from First Look Pictures on October 6. First Look might as well be considered horror's charitable foster family, adopting such previously troubled horror movies as the "Day of the Dead" remake and Lindsay Lohan's pregnancy laffer "Labor Pains", which I wish they had mashed "It's Alive" up with.

El Superbeasto is based on a character from his short-lived anthology comic series and featuring the voices of Paul Giamatti, Sid Haig, Danny Trejo and everyone else you'd expect from Zombie.

Louisville – Residents of Southwest Louisville will get a first look at the design of the Louisville Free Public Library's newest regional library at a special meeting on Monday, February 4th.
"This is a chance for everyone to visualize what this state of the art facility will look like as the library moves into the next phase of this project," says Councilman David Yates (D-25). "It's a chance to ask questions and get updated on the new library's progress."
Yates and Council members Rick Blackwell (D-12), Vicki Aubrey Welch (D-13) and Cindi Fowler (D-14) will join Mayor Greg Fischer and Library Director Craig Buthod for the meeting at the current Southwest Branch.
"This regional library is a top priority for many of us on the Council," says Blackwell. "This meeting is the next step in moving toward the day when the library is open and serving the community."
The Mayor and Council members will present to the public the Design Team in charge of putting to paper many of the ideas that have been suggested for the new regional branch.
"Libraries have a positive impact on any area of the city, we know that first hand as the Fairdale Library approaches its first year of operation" says Welch. "The Council is a strong advocate for expanding our library system."
The new regional library will be built in District 25. The meeting will start at 6:00pm at the current Southwest Library, 10375 Dixie Highway located in District 14.
"This new library is long overdue for the people of our area," says Fowler. "I want to encourage everyone in the Southwest to come out and join us. This is an important project and needs our support."
For more information about the meeting , contact Councilman Yates office at 574-1125 or the Southwest Library at 933- 0029.Sponsors:David Yates (D) 25Rick Blackwell (D) 12Vicki Aubrey Welch (D) 13Cindi Fowler (D) 14

The number of deaths from heroin overdose is rising in Minnesota, and one community in Anoka County is taking a stand after several young lives were claimed by the addictive and dangerous drug.
In October alone, three people with strong ties to East Bethel died. Given the startling and saddening losses, the residents are creating an awareness program.
On Monday night, hundreds of parents and their children attended an educational meeting with a clear message: "Enough is enough." One of the most alarming facts presented to the audience was a disturbing truth -- the drug is being used by children in many metro suburbs.
"He had everything going for him. Smart, good looking, tons of friends -- he had his whole future," Sheri Schmaus told Fox 9 News.
Yet for a year and a half, Jake Schmaus secretly struggled with heroin addiction. On May 22, the addiction won.
"We just know that it can happen to anyone at any time," Sheri Schmaus warned.
Jake Schmaus is one of more than 100 people in the Twin Cities who have overdosed in the last year, including an alarming number of suburban teens.
"We've just seen an increase in heroin the likes of which we've never seen before," confirmed Carol Falkowski, who has been monitoring drug trends in the state of Minnesota for more than 20 years.
According to Falkowski, the number of heroin-related emergency room visits has tripled in less than 10 years.
"It's easy. Make one phone call, drive down to north Minneapolis," Jimmy Mayer explained. "I could get it minutes."
Mayer overdosed just a few weeks after his high school graduation.
"Found him in his room, almost dead, with a needle lying next to him," his mother, Jackie, recalled.
While heroin is relatively new to Minnesota, it's affordable, easy to get, and extremely pure. Unlike other narcotics, heroin has a much higher potential for abuse, addiction and overdose. That's why Falkowski recommends parents keep an eye out for warning signs and talk to their children about drug use early and often.
"It's really our job as parents to help them make the choices that keep them alive," she said.
Minnesota drug use statistics show 40 percent of those admitted to treatment for heroin addiction are between 18 and 25 years old. Next year, a Minnesota legislator who lost her own daughter to a heroin overdose will introduce a bill that would make an overdose antidote more readily available.

weeping statues From time to time, reports of weeping or bleeding religious statues, icons, or paintings are featured in the media. There is no specific season for this phenomenon, but Christmas and Easter are slightly favored.
The Christmas season of 1986 brought a media blitz of articles and interviews about another variety of the miracle, this one of a Virgin Mary painting in Chicago that was said by church authorities to exude "a very thin, oily sweet substance very similar to the [liquid] we use to baptize children or unction for the sick." These authorities firmly declined to have the "tears" examined by chemists, saying that
to further analyze [this phenomenon] would be almost blasphemy. The Archdiocese thinks [investigators] should not subject [the substance] to a scientific analysis, which is not a very religious procedure.
The previous year, a similarly attractive myth had collapsed when another religious figure, in Montreal, Canada——this time a combination weeping/bleeding statue——turned out to have been smeared with a quite mundane mixture of the owner's own blood and Kmart shaving lotion. The resulting fuss was no surprise to experienced observers of these matters. Media exposure of the hoax brought a barrage of hate mail to the local bishop. The letter writers felt that in spite of the evidence——a direct confession from the hoaxer——the bishop still should have declared the event a genuine miracle.
Ordinary atmospheric condensation, encouraged by the increased number of candles offered at the site, as well as the exhalation of the large crowds, can often result in "tears" on a plaster figure. And it is obvious that any person armed with a concealed syringe or other similar device can surreptitiously project the required liquid onto the figure. Since proper examination of the site and of the substances involved are forbidden and discouraged, there is little to be gained merely by theorizing on the modus operandi that might have been used. Certainly, no assumption of a miracle would be parsimonious.

The benefits of cooking for one
Today, more and more of us live alone, either through choice or circumstances. As a single person, finding the motivation to cook for yourself can be difficult, especially after a long day at work. And coming up with meal ideas and finding recipes for one person can seem like chore, even if you know how to cook and have a full kitchen at your disposal. While eating out, hitting the drive-through, or throwing a frozen dinner in the microwave can seem like the simple answer, regularly eating convenience food can take a toll on your physical and mental health, as well as your waistline. Fast food and TV dinners tend to be low in nutrition and high in fat, sugar, sodium, and calories. Often, for less money and only a little more time, you can create healthier, better tasting meals yourself.
Even if you live in a dorm room, bachelor apartment, or other accommodation without a full kitchen, you can learn to cook quick, inexpensive meals that not only taste great but can boost your energy, stabilize your mood, and keep you as healthy as possible. The key to cooking for one is to master a few basic skills, stock up on essential ingredients, and get creative in making meals that work specifically for you. After all, that's the great thing about cooking for one: you don't have to please anyone but yourself.
|Benefits of Cooking for One
|Health Benefits
|Emotional Benefits
Preparing your own healthy meals can reduce your risk of illnesses such as heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure, and diabetes. It can give you more energy and help you better manage health problems.
The simple process of cooking for yourself can be very empowering. Taking charge of your diet and taking the time to care for yourself can improve your mood and self-esteem.
In women, cooking healthy food can help reduce PMS, boost fertility, and ease symptoms of menopause.
Adopting a diet of healthy, home-cooked meals can make you more resilient to stress, anxiety and depression.
If you're on a special diet, such as gluten-free or vegan, or trying to lose weight, control diabetes, or switch to a heart-healthy diet, it's much easier to ensure you're getting all the right food when you prepare and cook meals for yourself.
Living alone doesn't mean you have to always eat alone. Inviting friends, family, or dates over to sample your cooking is a great way to get together with others and expand your social circle, which in turn can help alleviate stress and add joy to your life.
Eating well at home can sharpen your mind, fight cognitive decline, and decrease your risk of Alzheimer's disease.
Eating wholesome meals can even make you happier. When your body feels healthier, you feel happier—inside and out.

Father, Sons Charged In Marijuana Conspiracy Case
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Four people, including a father and his two sons, were arrested by Metro Police and charged with plans to distribute several dozen pounds of marijuana.
Johnny Wayne Tucker, 63, and his sons, 33-year-old Faraji and 30-year-old Jelani were taken into custody as they attempted to deliver 10 pounds of marijuana to a home at the Hampton Chase Apartments on Borowood Drive. Also arrested at the time was 30-year-old Bobby Harvell.
The investigation led narcotic detectives to Faraji Tucker's home on Algonquin Trail. An additional 15 pounds of marijuana were discovered hidden in his garage freezer.
The home of Johnny Tucker was also searched and turned up 52 pounds of marijuana in an upstairs bedroom. A total of 77 pounds of marijuana were seized along with $3,366 in cash.
More charges are expected to be filed against the men.

Several of California's newspapers and media organizations banded together to perform a public service: exhaustive reporting on high-speed rail.
The most interesting of the stories they produced, however, is not about California. It's about Spain.
Spain's high-speed rail system is often cited as a model for California's. But its example also has plenty of cautions for California, according to the story, by Tim Sheehan of the Fresno Bee.
First, even Spain's popular and successful system does not pay for itself. It requires public subsidy. In California, advocates have claimed just the opposite. We should not believe them.
Second, political support is crucial.
The media report notes that Spain built its system at a time of great political consensus, and helathy budgets.
Given the costs of such systems -- the Spanish numbers run into the tens of billions, the same ballpark as the $100 billion estimate for the first phase of a California system -- deep public support may be even more important than sufficient money.
Right now, California has neither.
Third, and finally, the route matters.
The media reports quotes Spanish officials as being puzzled by the California plan to start building in the Central Valley.
The environmental policy director for the system is quoted as saying: "You need to have either Los Angeles or San Francisco. They should build it where it will have an impact so that people will support it."

Moving Forward in Pancreatic Cancer
Experts on pancreatic cancer met last week to exchange ideas about how to make progress against this deadly disease. Much of the discussion focused on how to identify the most promising potential therapies and test them efficiently in the clinic. Many participants said that combinations of targeted therapies may prove effective against the disease, even though few patients have benefited from the targeted drugs tested to date.
More than 90 researchers, clinicians, patient advocates, and pharmaceutical industry representatives discussed topics ranging from mouse models and cancer stem cells to the pitfalls of designing and interpreting clinical trials. The meeting was organized by the NCI Gastrointestinal Cancer Steering Committee and was the first in a series of state-of-the-science conferences sponsored by NCI's Coordinating Center for Clinical Trials.
"We are facing a bit of a crisis in pancreatic cancer clinical research," said Dr. Margaret Tempero of the University of California, San Francisco. "We seem to make progress in identifying potential therapies in isolated institutional clinical trials, yet when we test these agents in a broader population, they fail."
Failure may occur for several reasons, and they are not always clear. Patients in early-stage trials could be less sick than patients in the broader population and therefore fare better, for instance.
Many participants said that a single drug is unlikely to be effective against this genetically complex disease. Pancreatic tumors are notorious for resisting the antitumor effects of targeted drugs by activating alternative pathways.
Some of the molecules involved in transmitting cancer-promoting messages have been identified, but the most important players in these complex networks are not known. "The essential problem with pancreatic cancer is that we're trying to make progress in the face of biological uncertainties," said Dr. James Abbruzzese of University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center.
A recent study suggesting that multitargeted therapies may be required to treat glioblastoma brain cancer could apply to pancreatic cancer, said Dr. Abbruzzese. Both cancers are genetically and clinically diverse and resistant to therapies.
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth most deadly cancer in the U.S., though it is not among the 10 most common. The cancer is frequently diagnosed only after it has spread beyond the pancreas, and treatment options are limited. Surgery is the best hope for a cure among some patients with cancer localized to the pancreas.
The primary chemotherapy drug used to treat pancreatic cancer, gemcitabine (Gemzar), helps a minority of patients. With the exception of erlotinib (Tarceva), few of the targeted drugs tested to date have shown a benefit for patients.
Still, critical genes have been identified, and there was reason for optimism at the meeting. Mouse models have generated interest because the mice, like their human counterparts, develop tumors that spread easily and resist most treatments. In addition, recent studies suggest that some patients may benefit from adjuvant therapies following surgery.
"We have much more knowledge about the basic science of pancreatic cancer today than we did several years ago," said Dr. Philip A. Philip of Karmanos Cancer Center, Wayne State University. "We also have inventories of targeted drugs that we could use if only we can figure out how to test these drugs in patients in ways that provide us with informative results."
The group plans to report its findings and recommendations in 2008. In the meantime, there was a consensus to do more pilot clinical trials with smaller numbers of patients before embarking on large randomized trials, said Dr. Philip. This would ensure that the most promising treatments are taken to final-stage trials with a much better chance of success.
The need to develop experimental tools such as mouse models was also stressed. "There was general agreement on the importance of these tools in helping us to design trials and in choosing drugs and selecting patients to get the maximum benefit," said Dr. Philip.
—Edward R. Winstead


text: Ever since fiscal decentralization in 1994, local governments have been saddled with a smaller slice of the revenue pie and a bigger slice of the expenditure pie, leading to a desperate search for revenue streams. In the last 15 years, the real estate sector has emerged as a savior for local governments—land leases, transfer fees, and taxes have provided a revenue river. Recently, however, and in great part due to central government cooling policies such as tightened credit and higher down payments, the real estate sector has been slowing, creating significant problems for local governments. According to the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Rural Development, new home sales in Beijing were down in 21.4 percent in 2012 from the previous year, and the sales of existing homes fell 52.9 percent. As a result of such declines, land sale revenue dropped 13 percent year-on-year from 2010 to 2011.

Paycheck shock socks consumer confidence
The end of a payroll tax break and mixed economic signals from Congress have erased all the gains made by the Consumer Confidence Index in 2012.
What led to January's dismal consumer confidence numbers?
We've had recent signs the economy's been warming up -- better housing, car sales and employment data, for instance. And there have been indications the American public was a bit more optimistic about its collective financial future; that we might actually be seeing the light at the end of this recession tunnel.
But the Consumer Confidence Index, which was down in December, fell again this month -- erasing all the gains it had made in 2012."Consumers are more pessimistic about the economic outlook and, in particular, their financial situation," Lynn Franco, Director of Economic Indicators at The Conference Board said in a press statement. "The increase in the payroll tax has undoubtedly dampened consumers' spirits and it may take a while for confidence to rebound and consumers to recover from their initial paycheck shock."
Many Americans are indeed doing double-takes when they look at their paychecks. The two-year "holiday" workers had on their Social Security payroll tax -- which pushed that tax rate down to 4.2% from 6.2% in the hopes of increasing consumer spending -- is over.
The constant political bickering on Capitol Hill over the economy hasn't helped consumer confidence levels, either.
"All the negative news about the dysfunction in Washington surrounding the fiscal cliff negotiations contributed to the December plunge," notes Joshua Shapiro, chief U.S. economist at MFR, in an interview with Associated Press, "and ongoing shenanigans concerning the debt ceiling and fiscal sanity in general continued to weigh in January."
And while we may be helping to keep Social Security afloat, the increased payroll taxes mean most Americans will have to work harder to make their shrinking paychecks go further.
"For the average person, it's going to take more discipline than ever to offset this payroll tax hike," CJM Wealth Management CEO Charles Massimo recently told NBC News.
Some experts believe the increased payroll tax could change consumer shopping patterns.
Lee Boggs, a political marketing professor at West Virginia University, says the payroll tax increase comes as a major financial jolt for families still paying off their holiday bills -- as well as dealing with the usual monthly expenses.
"How many people spent and charged during the holidays based on their 2012 take home pay, not considering that their take home pay would be $40-$80 a month less in January 2013?" he said in the Tarboro, N.C., Daily Southerner.
"Now they're bringing home less but they are still responsible for those contracts. Couple that with holiday debt and some middle class people could be facing serious financial challenges right now."
And it's not just the middle class facing some stark economic choices.
"The people at the lowest incomes are going to be the most stretched, the least able to take it out of savings and sustain their spending pattern," economist Joel Naroff commented in USA Today.

Reading highlights seniorsThe university Writers' Institute presented the last of six installments of senior readings on Wednesday, April 14 at 7:30 p.m. in the Lore A. Degenstein Art Gallery.
"What you're really going to hear is some really fine writing by those who are graduating," said Professor of English and Director of the Writers' Institute Gary Fincke.
He gave a brief introduction of the seniors before they began their readings.
The participating seniors were Marcus Burke of Hyde Park, Mass., Holly Moncavage of Mount Carmel, Madeline Hals of Morristown, N.J., Ashley Miller of Catawissa and William Paris of San Antonio, Texas.
The first reader was creative writing major Marcus Burke with a piece titled "Praise."
Burke joined the Writers' Institute after his freshman year. His work has been published four times through the Institute. Burke has also played four consecutive years on the men's varsity basketball team.
Creative writing major Holly Moncavage was the second reader and shared from her piece called "Space."
Moncavage has had her works published in River-Craft, the Susquehanna Review and the North Central Review. She also worked as Fincke's teaching assistant in fiction for the summer writing workshops.
The third reader was creative writing major Madeline Hals. She read a piece called "Surveyor."
Hals said she has spent the past four years concentrating on writing fiction and screenplays. She is a staff writer for The Crusader and has also published some of her photography work in RiverCraft.
Creative writing major Ashley Miller read fourth from her piece called "Work and Play on the Outer Banks."
Miller said that despite never publishing her work in RiverCraft, she has enjoyed being a part of the fiction reading boards for the past three years. She said she plans to take a year off before applying to graduate school.
The final reader of the night was creative writing and philosophy double major Paris. His piece was a chapter from the novel he has been writing for his independent writing project titled, "Songs from Bethlehem."
Paris' work has been published in university publications "Variance" and "Trans-formations."
He also read the beginning of his novel, "Songs from Bethlehem," at the Under-graduate Literary Conference at Susquehanna in February.
"I had a lot of fun," Paris said of his participation in the senior reading. "The character in my novel is really fun and sarcastic, so I had a great time getting into the voice."
The Writers' Institute will host one more Visiting Writer this semester. Jay Varner will read on Monday, April 19 at 4:30 p.m. in Isaacs Auditorium.

I'm very proud to announce the official release of The Many Colors of [astral projects]. This album is the culmination of ideas materialized in 2012. Styles range from mellow funk, to boogie, to disco, to jazz-funk, to hypnagogic.
Characterized by swirling organs, warm Rhodes, vintage synths, and syncopated bass, this collection stands as the most advanced work from [astral projects] Records thus far, and as a sampler of the featured artists' upcoming projects in the next few months.
Hi-res art .pdf files come with the digital release. Or if you prefer a physical copy there will be a limited edition disc that might come with some more surprises so you can get your copy. Also, if you purchase a physical copy, you'll get a free digital copy as well. In the next couple weeks we'll be expanding into more popular online music stores.
As mentioned before, every track here is part of a larger project from each individual artists. This collection stands as a sort of jumping off point of our new development. For instance, The Nubians record (Changing With The Times) will be released in late January, upon which point there will be some more announcements.
With all that said, I'm sure you'll feel this joint as much as I do. -Js.One

"We love our announcements! Card was easy to make. It came so quickly and was packaged very nicely. The box was a nice touch! Our cards are beautiful! Way better than even expected. The print quality is beyond expectation. Even the envelopes were high quality!"
"I thought the card looked amazing when designing it, but was blown away by the style and quality one printed! These announcements were simply stunning and look like we spent a small fortune, when we really didn't! I can wait for our next purchase!"
"my daughter was born in the pre me the card turned out absolutely beautiful I love it. Tiny prints did such a great job they even sent me an email to have me confirm some small changes they may to make the picture in the print even more beautiful."
"The customer service was above and beyond! After I submitted my order I received a phone call from them saying they could adjust some touch ups that I overlooked. I really appreciated it!!!"
"I am very glad that I chose to order my daughter's birth announcements from tinyprints. I added a similar photo to the example, but changed it to black and white and it really made her name in pink pop out. I received a lot of compliments! The design and printing are flawless and better than I imagined."

The Bed Room is found behind the far left door in the Number World. It contains 71 beds and a sane Toriningen. The beds are divided into six rows, most of which are occupied (assumed to be by sleeping Toriningen). The centre bed of the fifth row can be used, and has a high chance of teleporting Madotsuki to The Staircase of Hands.
The guilotine world can be reached by entering the bleeding wall, and stabbing the Toriningen before opening the third closet from the left teleports you to mini hell. Madotsuki's Ghost can be found here.

At the age of 10, Bella was a witness to a murder and was nearly killed herself. She knows about vampires since she saw one and was nearly attacked. She and her family have been vacated from their home in Phoenix to the small town of Forks. Bella immediately becomes friends the Cullens. She knows they are vampires, but she has the sense that they won't hurt her. The only one who doesn't trust her is Edward because she wasn't telling the truth about who she is and why she moved to Forks. 8 years have gone by and Edward is just starting to trust her, even though secretly he's been falling for her, the vampire who nearly killed her comes into Forks and starts hunting her down and shows up at the school.
Bella: Claire Oswin Oswald (Known as Miracle)
Neveah Swan
Claire Oswin Oswald
She was recently changed by Malcom when she went to visit her friends in Phoenix and she hasn't been able to face her sister. She is currently with Malcolm so she can find her sister to warn her about him. She's Bella's younger sister
Name: Lisette (Lissa)
P/B: Koko
Age: 17
Species: Vampire
She joined the Cullens at some point in the 1950s after she was changed by an old friend of Malcom's. She doesn't have a mate, but helps keep Edward in check (keeps him from moping too much) up until Bella enters their life. She doesn't have any spectacular gifts, but she is particularly good at cheering people up.
Boy and girl please!
Stay Dedicated
Don't be your own couple
