Nature's Inspiring Stories
Nature springs to life in Nature Conservancy magazine. Read
The Northeast has the dubious honor of some of the nation's most fragmented river systems, with an average of seven dams interrupting every 100 miles of river.
Now, a team of biologists and policy experts from throughout the region has developed a means of weighing the ecological impact of these dams, data that can be critical to securing and targeting limited funds for river restoration efforts. Their report, titled Northeast Aquatic Connectivity: An Assessment of Dams on Northeast Rivers, was released to the public today. About 1,700 of the estimated 5,000 dams in Connecticut were assessed.
"For the first time, we can easily quantify and compare how removing different dams might affect the ecology of river systems throughout the Northeast, allowing us to more successfully work at the scale of nature," said Colin Apse, deputy director of The Nature Conservancy's North America Freshwater Conservation Program and a lead scientist on the project.
Staff members from state and federal wildlife agencies, local universities, The Nature Conservancy and other conservation groups collaborated, over several years, to analyze myriad data sources over three years; using GIS technology to calculate more than 70 different metrics that affect habitat in the Northeast's extensive river systems.
The database that they produced considers nearly 14,000 dams in thirteen states and the District of Columbia, and identifies locations where dam removal or fish passage construction would likely have the most significant ecological benefit. An assessment tool can be customized to consider either anadromous fish like Atlantic salmon, shad and alewife that migrate between fresh and saltwater environments, or resident fish species like brook trout; and can be used at the scale of states, regions or individual river basins.
"River herring, a harbinger of spring, are returning to Connecticut's rivers now," said Sally Harold, The Conservancy's Connecticut director of migratory fish projects. "These fish need to reach freshwater habitats to successfully spawn; yet along Connecticut's 100-mile coastline there are few rivers without dams—and only so far these fish can go. This project will help guide us to potential projects at dams that will provide the greatest environmental benefits."
Maine and Virginia have the most dams in the top 10 percent regionally for potential benefits for migratory species, although Massachusetts, New Jersey and Delaware also have significant results when river length is considered. All the states in the analysis − from Maine to West Virginia − have one or more dams that rank high for the potential benefits of fish passage restoration, as do each of the major river basins in the region.
Across the assessment region, dozens of dams have been removed in recent decades, restoring natural habitat to many rivers. But as funding for conservation faces ever more substantial budget cuts at all levels of government, scientists must demonstrate the return on these public investments in ecological restoration.
"The Northeast Aquatic Connectivity project is a useful tool and first step in deciding how best to allocate state resources on the projects most likely to improve fish habitat," said Glenn Normandeau of New Hampshire Fish and Game, and President of the New England Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies, a key partner on this project.
And not all dams need be removed. In some cases, dams play in important role in providing energy, flood control, or recreational opportunity. Some create drinking water supplies, or dam removal simply isn't feasible. Community and conservation leaders can use this tool to consider the ecological benefits of dam removal or fish passage installation. Combined with on-the-ground data about economic and community needs, it will provide a more complete picture to inform local decisions, Apse said.
"This ecological data is one piece of the puzzle for communities to use as they decide whether to remove or adapt dams," he said. "It isn't about removing every dam. It's about removing the right dams, and using limited funds for the greatest benefit."
States assessed in the Northeast Aquatic Connectivity Assessment include; Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia and Virginia, as well as the District of Columbia.
This project was supported by State Wildlife Grant funding awarded through the Northeast Regional Conservation Needs (RCN) Program. The RCN Program joins 13 northeast states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in a partnership to address landscape-scale, regional wildlife conservation issues. Progress on these regional issues is achieved through combining resources, leveraging funds, and prioritizing conservation actions identified in the State Wildlife Action Plans. See rcngrants.org for more information. Funding was also provided by well as The Nature Conservancy's Connecticut River Basin Program.

Since I've knocked Max Baucus repeatedly on the corporate tax credits he passed through his committee in August, which ended up in the fiscal cliff bill. So here's a statement from Baucus's Finance Committee staff:
There's no question more needs to be done to weed out wasteful tax cuts. The Finance Committee will take a hard look at each and every expiring provision as part of comprehensive tax reform. As Chairman Baucus stated in a speech last year, "We need to get out of the way of the market, unless there is clear evidence that a tax expenditure spurs growth and creates jobs. Every tax provision needs to prove it has a tangible benefit to our economy or society. If not, it doesn't belong in the tax code.
This backs up some of what I've already heard: some of this year's extenders may be killed in 2013 as part of a broader reform. We hear this sort of thing a lot, but here's the Finance Committee Chairman putting his name on the idea.

School of Business to be renamed
On Friday, Nov. 2, as part of Homecoming Weekend, Trevecca Nazarene University will honor Nashville businessman Gerald D. Skinner in a naming ceremony for one of its schools—the Skinner School of Business and Technology.
Skinner, a CPA, has had 43-year association with Trevecca which began in 1969 when joined Trevecca's faculty to teach in its newly created business department. He served 17 years in that role and as chair of that department. Students who studied under Skinner credit him for their success in business, noting how his mentoring them inspired them to achieve and how his friendship and interest in them made them work hard. During his 17 years of leadership in the business department, that area of the university thrived, becoming one of the most successful and strongest programs in Trevecca. In 1986 Skinner left teaching to devote his time to CompCo, a software development corporation that he had co-founded. He served as the CEO of the corporation and oversaw its growth, with customers across the U. S. and in Canada. He retired from this position in 2010.
After leaving Trevecca's faculty, Skinner served Trevecca as an a member of the President's Advisory Council (1986-1991), an unpaid consultant and financial advisor (1991-2005), a member of its Board of Trustees (1997-present and as chair of that group, 2001-2004), and chair of the University's capital campaign that raised $28.5 million for scholarship endowment and construction of Waggoner Library and the Center for Instructional Technology.
In order to fulfill his passion to inspire and impact the lives of students over a long period of time, Skinner endowed two scholarship funds, one for accounting students and one for religion students. Through the business scholarship, begun in the 1970s,and the religion scholarship, begun in 1997, Skinner has achieved his goal of changing the lives of students who received those scholarships.
In recognition of his service to Trevecca, the University has honored Skinner with these awards: Faculty Member of the Year, 1972; recipient of the LLD honorary degree, 1990; President's Service Award, 1991; McClurkan Award, 1997; Lyla T. Mackey Diakonas Award, 2005.
The renaming ceremony will take place at 11 AM, on Friday, Nov. 2, at 11 AM, at the conclusion of the Founder's Day Chapel, in which a panel of Skinner's former students will share their accounts of his influence on their lives. Founder's Day Chapel will take place at 10 AM in the sanctuary of Trevecca Community Church of the Nazarene, adjacent to the campus.
"When the story of a great university is told, the main characters in the story will be professors who shaped the character of those who love the university. One of our main characters is Dr. Gerald Skinner. When Trevecca business students tell their Trevecca stories, Dr. Skinner's name is part of those stories. It is our delight to honor him on Homecoming weekend," said Dan Boone, president of Trevecca.

diskA round plate on which data can be encoded. There are two basic types of disks: magnetic disks and optical disks.
On magnetic disks, data is encoded as microscopic magnetized needles on the disk's surface. You can record and erase data on a magnetic disk any number of times, just as you can with a cassette tape. Magnetic disks come in a number of different forms:
Optical disks record data by burning microscopic holes in the surface of the disk with a laser. To read the disk, another laser beam shines on the disk and detects the holes by changes in the reflection pattern.
Optical disks come in three basic forms:
The machine that spins a disk is called a disk drive. Within each disk drive is one or more heads (often called read/write heads) that actually read and write data.
Accessing data from a disk is not as fast as accessing data from main memory, but disks are much cheaper. And unlike RAM, disks hold on to data even when the computer is turned off. Consequently, disks are the storage medium of choice for most types of data. Another storage medium is magnetic tape. But tapes are used only for backup and archiving because they are sequential-access devices (to access data in the middle of a tape, the tape drive must pass through all the preceding data).
A new disk, called a blank disk, has no data on it. Before you can store data on a blank disk, however, you must format it

Whitworth Home Page > Theology Department > Certification in Ministry Program >
Sarah Hennagin Evans, '08
Anyone who has worked in youth ministry before can attest to its unpredictability. The Certificate in Ministry Program does a fantastic job of addressing this by providing classes that speak to the many different aspects of ministry. From the practical parts of ministry, like budgeting and administration, to the deeper theological questions of why ministry is done: All of this, and more, is covered! The classes did more than just prepare me for what I would encounter in full-time ministry; they also gave me expertise in specific areas, such as small-group and urban ministry. The classes were taught by professors as well as by local pastors who had first-hand knowledge of ministry. I continue to draw from their insight and knowledge today.
One of the program's high points is the required internship. The internship gave me a first-hand look at what working in a church would be like. The mentor I worked with is someone I can still go to today for ministry advice, and the class that I took alongside the internship experience allowed me to digest and think through how I was doing ministry.
Finally, one of my favorite aspects of this program is how it addresses the spiritual and emotional components of a person. For a variety of reasons, becoming burned out is a huge problem among youth directors. This program emphasizes how to stay healthy in ministry while continuing to grow spiritually and emotionally.
To any student considering ministry upon graduation from college, I can say that the Whitworth Certificate in Ministry Program is absolutely essential. I really believe that this sort of program should be required for all students interested in ministry. No other program will help prepare students for ministry as well as this one. If you still have questions about the Certificate in Ministry Program feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
If you are interested in ministry, there is no better place to start than the Whitworth Certification in Ministry Program!

Almost instantly after the Canucks clinched a berth in the Stanley Cup Final on Tuesday, the first question that invariably came up – even before 'who are they going to play?' – is 'do you think Henrik (Sedin) is going to touch the conference trophy?'
If you were on Twitter or Facebook after Game 6 between the Canucks and Sharks, you may have noticed that thread as one of the hottest topics of discussion.
Of course, Vancouverites will remember 1994, when Trevor Linden picked up the Campbell Bowl and dropped the top on the ice in celebration. The Canucks would soon drop a Game 7 heartbreaker to the New York Rangers in the final.
There was likely a collective sigh of relief as Henrik Sedin kept clear of touching the Campbell Bowl, opting to stand beside it for the presentation.
On Friday, the Boston Bruins provided a unique twist when accepting their prize after beating the Lightning in Game 7. Captain Zdeno Chara accepted but did not touch the trophy, and instead waved his teammates over for a group photo. 25 Bruins players surrounded the trophy - and not one touched it.
The tradition and superstition begs the question: if you were an NHL captain, would you pick up the Campbell Bowl or Prince of Wales Trophy?
Teams have always based the decision not to touch the trophy as a way of saying "we have our eyes on the bigger trophy, not this one". On the other hand, it is not a proud moment for a team and franchise to make a final and represent their conference in the championship series?
If you look back at the past decade, the decision to touch, or not to touch has been a mixed bag of results.
Over that span, five teams that didn't touch the trophy (2010 Blackhawks, 2008 Wings, 2007 Ducks, 2006 Hurricanes and 2003 Ducks) went on the win the Stanley Cup. But in two of those instances – 2008 and 2006 – both teams passed on touching the trophy.
Conversely, twice in that span the team that didn't touch the trophy lost the Stanley Cup to a team that did touch the trophy. In 2009, Sidney Crosby fearlessly grabbed the Prince of Wales Trophy, and the Penguins went on to beat the Red Wings.
Scott Stevens did the same thing in 2003, and the Devils beat the Ducks. It wasn't his first time, either. In 2000, after dispatching the Flyers, Stevens picked up the Prince of Wales Trophy and the Devils went on to win the Stanley Cup over the Stars.
And how did the "curse" apply in 2001 (Avalanche-Devils) and 2002 (Hurricanes-Red Wings) as both teams grabbed hold of their respective conference trophies but only one team could win the Stanley Cup? Colorado and Detroit were victorious and lived to tell the tale.
So maybe there's nothing to it and captains should hoist the trophy and allow their teammates to enjoy the accomplishment of winning the conference championship. After all, is it not somewhat awkward when players refuse the gesture made by NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly when he presents the trophy?
So we want to hear from you: If you were an NHL captain, would you pick up the Campbell Bowl or Prince of Wales Trophy?
It's Your! Call.

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
This black beauty offers the trademark graphite and blackberry character found in all Cherryblock bottlings. It is deep and expressive with damp earth, spice and "cigar box" oak seasoning. The flavors are concentrated, yet elegant with blackberries, currants, toasty oak and dusty Cabernet notes. Thanks to the soft tannins, it can be enjoyed now, but will develop and improve over the next 7 to 10 years. A harmonious blend of power and elegance, this is by far our most balanced Cherryblock ever.
"A classy Bordeaux-like effort, rich and harmonious, with ripe plum, blackberry, black cherry and spice notes, as touches of cedar and herb firm midpalate, yet gain depth and persistence on the finish. Drink now through 2021. 1,448 cases made."

"A lovely Cabernet. It comes from the winery's vineyard in the far southern part of the valley, not far from the Carneros line. The wine is medium-bodied, dry, silky and elegantly tannic, with complex cherry, currant, cola and cedar flavors. Should develop bottle complexity over the next 6–8 years."

Lance Armstrong to compete in San Diego
CORONADO, Calif -- Lance Armstrong loves to compete, so even after receiving a lifetime ban from the U.S. Anti-Doping agency on August 24th, he still looks for chances to race.
He's found his next race at the Superfrog half-ironman triathlon on September 30th.
"He can still compete in Superfrog because we are not USA Triathlon sanctioned," said Superfrog Race Director Mitchell Hall. "We go and get our private insurance. We enforce our own set of rules, although we do align with the USA triathlon rules, and we don't have to follow all of their guidelines."
Hall said Armstrong contacted him earlier this month about competing at the event which starts, and ends, at Silver Strand State Beach and Armstrong's entry has attracted several competitors who want the chance to race against Lance.
"Most people, even with the controversy surrounding Lance, are overwhelmingly positive. I would say 15 or 20-1," Hall said.
The USADA banned Armstrong for alleged drug use during his run of seven straight Tour de France titles from 1999-2005.
Hall, a retired Navy SEAL, said the Superfrog has never drug tested in its previous 33 years because of the expense.
"We rely on the fact that athletes are going to come here, who have integrity, and race this race within what we would define as sport which is fair and even-level competition, level playing field and just seeing what you can do," he said.
Hall also emphasizes they welcome Armstrong the philanthropist, who has helped raise millions of dollars for his Livestrong Foundation.
The night of the triathlon, Armstrong will host a question and answer session open to whomever wants to buy tickets on a first-come, first-served basis.
"Lance is a great philanthropist," Hall said. "The mission for this race is to raise money for the Navy SEAL Foundation."Copyright © 2014, The Morning Call

An Elmore County man who raped two boys and used his cell phone to take pictures of the crimes has been sentenced to 30 years in federal prison for producing child pornography.
According to the U.S. Attorney's office, between 2007 and 2012, 25-year-old Joshua Ray Parton raped two boys, a 12-year-old and a 9-year-old on multiple occasions. Parton used his cell phone camera to capture images of his molestation of the children.
Parton pleaded guilty back in December 2012.
Statements made by the families of the victims reflect the severe and long-lasting suffering that the children have been through and continue to cope with. In handing down the 30-year prison sentence, Judge Myron Thompson noted the immeasurable trauma that Parton's actions had wreaked in the lives of his child victims and their families.
Parton was originally arrested in Elmore County back in March of 2012 and charged with the sexual abuse of a child. Court documents show the case was waived to a grand jury.
Investigators at the time said the abuse started on or around Shields Road in the Lightwood Community. Parton was familiar with one of the victims' families. Allegations against Parton came to light when one boy's father noticed a change in his son's behavior.
Parton previously worked as a computer technician for a company at Gunter Air Force Base.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.

Tyler native Alaina Johnson was back at Texas East Gymnastics on Wednesday. The NCAA National Champion returned to competitive roots. Johnson's gymnastics journey began at Texas East Gymnastics as a little girl.
Last week, Johnson won the NCAA champions in the uneven bars as well as the team title with the Florida Gators.
"This was a dream come true for me," said Johnson. "Going into Florida I knew they had never won a national championship. That's one of the reasons why I wanted to go there. I wanted to be a part of team that won the championship the first time. We had to work so hard for three years. We put everything into that last year and it all paid off and we final won ourselves a national championship."
Johnson is the first Florida Gator to ever win the uneven bars national championship. She's also the first NCAA champion from Tyler East Gymnastics.

Could Aspergers syndrome be related to technology
Aspergers & Rebecca
In James Geary's new book I IS AN OTHER The secret life of Metaphor and how it shapes the way we see the world..He talks about about a woman called Rebbeca who has Aspergers syndrom. He speaks about how her social life is impaired do the symptoms of Aspergers. In essence , people with Aspergers can't decipher metaphors . They can't decode figurative speech , such as irony, sarcasm and humor. He goes on to say, basically these people are all most completely literal and concrete. If they are presented a metaphor such as your the Apple of my eye, they take it literally, WTF, I'm not an apple and I'm not in your eye.
This is curious, and I wonder if it relate to Dan Pinks work where in he talks about wht seems a deficit in our country when it comes to creative thinking.
This is starry, because our schools are getting back to basics when our county needs more creativity.
I also know from Marshall McLuhan, that the medium is the massage. Media shapes our perceptions . Thinking about the shooters at Culumbine, was observed that the boys where highly affected by violent video games and shot there victims as they wood in video games.
Have we got too far ?
And how do you think media is affecting your life?
Further, is it possible for a person to be on the other side of the spectrum, in other words living in the land of figurative speech almost interlay ?
Comment deleted
Feb 20 2011: interesting that you don't mention:
Feb 19 2011: I think that some of the sensory issues people with Aspberger's deal with may be due to less physical exploration. Less unstructured and outside time, too much virtual living, especially for very little ones, tv. Living in a more adult-oriented setting may also influence this-- the child tribes I remember don't seem to exist so much in middle class America so much anymore. It may be that children have a tendency towards Aspieness that is exacerbated by a more virtual life, but opened up by more rough-and -tumble exploration not organized by adults.

Both occupants of a Beechcraft Super King Air 300LW died September 14 when their aircraft crashed into a pair of houses in the La Isla area of the Argentinian capital Buenos Aires as it approached Jorge Newberry Airport. The impact ignited a fire in both ground structures that also destroyed the aircraft.
Air France pilots on Saturday voted to continue striking until at least Friday, extending by another five days a walkout that has forced the airline to cancel more than half its flights over the past week. The point of contention centers on Air France's stated plans to shift more capacity to its low-fare Transavia subsidiary, whose pilots work for significantly less pay than those of the main airline.
A series of new order announcements involving no fewer than three major civil airframe makers signaled the end of a late-summer sales lull on Wednesday, as airlines went on a new buying spree reminiscent of July's Farnborough airshow. The value of the week'sday's orderss totaled some $11.37.45 billion at list prices and involved 11886 airplanes ranging in size from the Embraer E175 regional jet to the Boeing 787-9 widebody.
The latest round of economic sanctions imposed against Russia by the U.S. and European Union (EU) did not directly target the civil aerospace and air transport sectors, but they may yet inflict collateral damage on these industries. The U.S. sanctions, announced on September 12, included the Rostec defense group, which has ambitions in the civil sector, such as its planned joint venture with Canada's Bombardier to build Q400 regional airliners in Russia.
Although a $2.2 billion upgrade of India's Dassault Mirage 2000 fighters is progressing, around a quarter of the fleet of 49 is grounded because a contract for spares has remained unsigned for years, AIN has learned from sources involved in the program.
The Russian defense ministry has ordered seven more Su-30SM two-seat fighters worth 13 billion roubles, boosting the total to be acquired to 72. Of these, the Russian air force is getting 60 and naval aviation 12. An initial contract for 30 was placed in 2012. Some have reportedly been deployed to Crimea.
Root-cause analysis of the F135 engine failure that grounded the F-35 fleet in July will be completed by the end of the month. Meanwhile, the problem is already sufficiently understood for Pratt & Whitney to have devised an interim fix. F-35s are flying again, but with borescope inspections mandated every three flying hours.
Boeing is now proposing the 737-700 Boeing Business Jet airframe for the emerging U.S. Air Force JStarsTARS (Joint Surveillance and Target Attack Radar System) replacement program. Eyeing the same requirement, meanwhile, Northrop Grumman has been flying a smaller, company-owned Gulfstream G550 development aircraft.
The threat of renewed U.S. government budget sequestration in FY2016 loomed large at this week's U.S. Air Force Association (AFA) conference and exposition. Nevertheless, Air Force leadership seemed confident that they could protect their top-priority procurements: the F-35 stealth fighter, KC-46 tanker and the long-range strike bomber (LRS-B). This same week, the U.S. Congress passed a continuing resolution to enable uninterrupted spending on operations and procurement from October 1, the start of FY2015. A definitive National Defense Authorization (NDA) for FY2015 is not expected until January.
Dassault recently wrapped up flight-testing that would see its Falcon 7X become the first certified business jet to operate at the world's highest commercial airport–14,470-foot-high Daocheng Yading Airport in China's Sichuan province. The certification effort is intended to meet demand in Western China for business jets capable of operating at small high-altitude airports in the region.

Book Club Pick: 'Thinking, Fast and Slow'
Published on Friday, July 13, 2012 - 9:03am
Dr. Daniel Kahneman's research is based on a statistical analysis of judgment and decision-making in psychology. He believes that the mind works in one of two ways:
- System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional;
- System 2 is slower, more deliberate, and more logical.
In this highly engaging book, the winner of the 2002 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences presents his decades of research into the mind's processes of processing, and how these processes impact our behavior, decision-making and how we think.
The book club meets the second Wednesday each month at 7 p.m. at La Casa, located next to the interim library.
For more information, please contact Ana Elisa de Campos Salles at email@example.com or call 202-671-3122.

Thanks to her Emmy Award-winning ABC sitcom (which averages 12 million viewers an episode in its third season), a clothing line and endorsement deals, FORBES estimates the Colombian-born star made $19 million over the past 12 months from her fame, making her the top-earning actress on U.S. television.
There's more, though. With little fanfare outside the insular Latino media community, for 16 years she and partner Luis Balaguer have shrewdly built up their company, Latin World Entertainment, from aMiami talent-management firm into a licensing, marketing, production and new-media powerhouse.

Careful betting against Zillow
The stock is overvalued, especially as a housing play, but this loved name is also a remarkably successful social, mobile and cloud play.
You want power? You want strength? Take a look at Zillow (Z), the heavily shorted real estate Web play that is soaring. On Thursday, the shares were up $6 on the day and were trading well above where the company priced its $82 secondary. Considering that the secondary was poorly received initially and broke price immediately, this is a remarkable renaissance. It's the only part of the housing-real estate sector that's doing well -- even as it is by far the most overvalued of all the stocks in the industry.
By contrast, Realogy (RLGY), which represents 26% of all transactions, was barely up even as it put on its best face on "Mad Money" Wednesday night and sales continue to grow at a 17% to 19% pace. Realogy's now a plus $3 billion company and all it does is list real estate. Despite Realogy's $5 billion in sales, the company is valued at about $6 billion and is barely up this year.
Zillow, with $150 million in revenues, is worth $3.7 billion and is up 240% for the year. That's just a testament to how much people love growth as Zillow could grow revenues as quickly as 60% to 70% for the year. Oh, and did I mention it has no earnings?
You want another wild contrast? Apollo Group (APOL) exited Realogy at $47 and change in a gigantic secondary offering of 25 million shares. The stock's been down ever since then. But Zillow's secondary (also of insider stock) seems to have re-energized the stock after that initial decline.
I think this divergence has less to do with real estate and more to do with a dearth of multiple revenue stream Internet companies. Check out Yelp (YELP) and LinkedIn (LNKD), two other similar business models to Zillow. They just keep running and running.
Some of this is pure short squeeze. The shorts treated Zillow as a housing play and bet that it would go down with the homebuilders and Realogy. Turns out it is a kind of social, mobile and cloud play that's viewed as a remarkable success.
I think Zillow is overvalued. But like Yelp and LinkedIn, as well as Netflix (NFLX) and Amazon (AMZN), it is loved. Realogy might be undervalued and is hated.
Shorts: Be careful what you bet against. Zillow isn't a housing play. It's the latest and greatest use of the Web!

Yawn. The question about Zillow. How many information sales/advertising revenue business models can we all stomach? Pages are already crammed with too many ads. I would hope a look at diminishing returns might second guess the addition of just one more. Overpopulation in anything is never a good thing. JMHO
Rome, Don't think you have to worry...?
We don't have a "draft" in today's world...
And I don't think in any way are we talking "boots on the ground."
My only concerns are repercussions here in the U.S. or abroad in other select Countries.
Correct, I believe or agree there is "no love lost" between Putin and Obama...
Putin is KGB....There is no such thing as EX-KGB...!! But Russia I guess needs a "strongman" in control and can't seem to function on the World stage without one.
Kinda like us having an ex- Military General, CIA, FBI, NSA or TSA(Homeland Sec.) In-Charge.
Recent times were Eisenhower and Bush #1, Reagan, thought he was because of Hollywood Roles.
Early times many Generals were Presidents, we have civilized ourselves maybe.?
Is what it is.....I have many different opinions about Gold, Silver and other PGMs.
But for the most part would be "parroting" others and even myself.
The best site, I know to check out "Gold ideas" is kitco dot com..
Many articles and opinions about all Precious Metals, exchange rates, etc.
And up to the minute prices...Kitco is a Canadian Company and provider...They know their stuff.
Covering all World events and prices.
And about once a week Anthony Merryday, does a column here on MSN...
A couple others such as Fleckenstein, Brush and Jubak (old timers here) do also, with Fleckenstein being kind of a Contrarian and a GoldBug. When gold is making fairly wild swings, is when most of the articles are written here...(I expect one very soon.)
As far as Gold to $1900 doubt it will happen this year...Don't listen to all the hypers.
It has only "touched" slightly over 1900 in recent History and I believe that was an Intraday high.
I don't think Syria is only a U.S. problem...
But having said that, "the use of chemical weapons" should be a World problem...IMO.
The only thing worst then "chemical poisoning death is burning alive.." (napalm for instance, etc.)
NOTHING CAN SAVE YOU and CHANCES are YOU WILL DIE.
Being left it seems, with France( a very old ally, for 100s of years)...The chances of going alone are increasing...Many of these other Countries, have very large, vocal Islamic populations.
Being we have put or allowed ourselves to be in "position of World Cop"...This happens.
No one else has the balls to do anything; And then you have the Russia and China Factor also.
I don't think Syria is only a U.S. problem...

E-mailed to my no-backbone Senators...
Funny... no impeachment news but Kerry is trying to tell us that 1,429 Syrians were allegedly killed by chemical weapons and we should all put our tin cups down, leave the street corner we are begging at and rally behind you losers and nuke 'em. 1,429 Syrians DIED. 90 million fellow Americans have been condemned to data-excluded DEATH by our zombie texter President... left to slowly fade without jobs, incomes, wrecked lives and families... while the likes of YOU collect salaries pensions healthcare nobody else has and get to make so many laws that no one human could recite them much less live by them. 83% of America want to drag you out into the street and force you to face the mess you created. You want to bomb someone... bomb Obama and save us from the Techno-Prez hoops fool. You WILL do as the people ask because you are our public servant. Impeach the stupid bastard and get fixing financial tyranny HERE, jobs blockades HERE, housing price control HERE and the forced assimilation of a FREE PEOPLE into a New World Order. YOU MAKE ANY MOVE TO ATTACK OR BOMB SYRIA AND AN ACT OF WAR IS DECLARED ON YOU.
Cramer seems to have pretty thick skin...I think that may be a redeeming quality of his..
Certainly he takes a lot of name calling and ribbing here...
As many should know he has his TV schtick and Interviews..
His Investing newsletter, etc.
And writes columns for many other Financial or Money Sites.
And theStreetcom.
Evil Chris...I don't know much about or follow Bonds....Have none at the time.
Had some Treasuries or Savings Bonds in early life and bought some for kids..
They use to have Bond drives years ago at work.
Have owned some or partials years past in Mutual Funds...Nothing outright now..
Only interest of late is in Munis...Or maybe tax-exempt types issued.
A buddy has some old ones, that are about to be called or something ??
He bought them years ago paying about 6-8%, but the date of expiration(?) has come and they will stop paying??....He has been very happy about it the last few years...Think they are Treasuries or Savings type...
There are many others on here that know a lot more about Bonds than I...
I think Active RIA, has some decent knowledge to that end, he usually only comes on later and not as often anymore....Good luck in your quest.
I would assume consumer confidence slid because of indecision over Syria,What do you think? The WH says it is listening to the American people ... is it?
Yes, The discussion and Article was mostly about Housing and that Sector's investments.
Radian and Realogy were the players that Cramer was writing about.
As usual the comments lasted for a short period discussing, some of the points..
And then turned quickly to "crapspeak"....
I was guilty also, discussing Sweet Corn, Casinos and Vet's Club.

User Reviews
The community thinks...
Disappointed by Mcboxy on 01/31/2009. Trim: 2003 Toyota Camry Solara SE, Owned 1 year.
Pros: It looks great and drives very smooth
Cons: I have this car for a couple of months, the engine light came on so i took it to Toyota and it turned out to be the Catalytic converta and Air Flow Sensor. It is costing me over $1000 just to fix. I believed this car has a problem with its emission system failing after a certain number of mileage known by the manufacturer and its expensive to fix.
Overall review: Over all i think its a good car but all buyers of the used ones must be weary of the Catalytic Converta which is very expensive to fix and will certainly break down around 100, 000 miles for this year models.
