'Homeland' recap: Season 3, Episode 7: 'Gerontion'
We open with police investigators examining the murder of Javadi's family, and learn that Quinn was photographed at the scene of the crime via a neighbor's surveillance camera. D'oh!
Fara questions Javadi, and rattles off a laundry list of offenses that translates to "We have you where we want you."
He won't respond directly to Fara though, and he talks above her, saying, "What's your point Saul? That I've been brought down by a girl? That I've been brought down by two girls?"
Javadi's sitting there like he isn't as screwed as he is. He's all, "I want a place in Florida, I want guards and I want money," and Saul is like, "Nope. THIS is how it's gonna be!"
Of course, I'm paraphrasing.
Saul wants to play Javadi back into Iran, and Javadi is terrified. He's all "I won't do it!" This time I'm not paraphrasing.
But Saul says they're definitely going to send him back to Iran. "Either as my asset or as a traitor to the revolution," he tells him.
And then woah, out of nowhere: Shirtless Quinn alert! He's showering and he's obviously still bent out of shape about the double-murder. I guess we're supposed to get from this that he's washing his hands like Pilot or something, but a large contingent of the "Homeland" audience has got to be psyched that they're showing him in the buff for so long.
Dar Adal shows up at Shirtless Quinn's place and is pissed that Shirtless Quinn won't tell him what he's working on. Then he reveals that the cops have the photo of him from the neighbor's surveillance cameras. He even thrusts the photo onto Shirtless Quinn's shirtless chest.
There's something very middle school about the way Dar Adal gets pissed when he's not in the loop.
Back at base we see Saul continuing to question Javadi, and when Javadi talks about killing his wife and he jokes, "I should have stoned her to death, but you didn't give me enough time."
Saul and Javadi have a talk about being old men now, which is presumably where the "Gerontion" title of the episode comes from.
When Javadi dangles it in Saul's face that he was behind the Langley bombing, Saul says that his first reaction was not one of how to get revenge, but one of how to find a way to stop all of the tit-for-tat, eye-for-an-eye methods of warfare going on. One of the themes of this episode seems to be, "Why does the CIA do so many horrible things?" and that's coupled with Saul excited to possibly do something good, to internally (and secretly) change this and internally (and secretly) bring about world peace. They never say that explicitly in the show, using the phrase "world peace," but that's basically what Saul is getting at.
Saul asks Javadi who was really responsible for the bombing at Langley. He asks plainly: "Was it Brody?"
After much pestering, Javadi admits, "It wasn't him. It was one of Abu Nazir's guys. Who exactly, I don't know."
Meanwhile, the team has to clean up the fact that Quinn's photo is out there. Carrie knows a cop with the Bethesda force who owes her a favor. Maybe she can get him to take Quinn's photo off the wire (and replace it with a photo of Shirtless Quinn?). But when she goes to the crime scene, her friend isn't very helpful, and the scene is so gory that it brings on a heavy bout of morning sickness. Carrie's friend says the cops want to talk to Quinn (and he should be ready to take off his shirt). Sorry. They don't imply that he should be ready to take off his shirt.
Fara is pissed that the CIA wants to send Javadi back to Iran, saying that what he did to the U.S. with the Langley bombing is nothing compared to what he did to Iran. And as Carrie is escorting him out she contemplates stabbing him with a pair of scissors. That's what we're supposed to interpret from that, right?
Saul is basking in glory of his plan, and he calls Mira, ready to reconcile. But then we see she's clearly slept with that dude that she met in Mumbai. They're in a hotel room and he's shirtless and basking in glory of another sort. Then Saul is telling her that he wants to work things out. The dude from Mumbai can sense that she likes her actual husband better than she likes him, and seems sufficiently bummed.
Quinn shows up at the murder site (note that it's just Quinn, not Shirtless Quinn) for questioning and really gets the third degree from the cops; the whole "how can you live with yourself?" treatment, and we can see that Quinn is thinking to himself, "Ugh, I'm having difficulty with that myself, bro." But he just sits there stone-faced.
The cop asks: "Have you ever done anything but make things worse?"
When Saul returns to headquarters Dar Adal is all "wah wah wah" about not being in the loop for Saul's plan, so Saul tells him and he tells Senator Lockhart too.
Senator Lockhart is pissed that Javadi was in the U.S. and that Saul is working with Carrie. When he learns that Javadi is still in the country, he demands to ground the plane and says he'll call the President. Saul tells him not to, saying his plan is "a once in a lifetime operation that can transform everything." But Lockhart isn't having any of it, so Saul reluctantly shows him to a phone in the conference room.
Then Saul and Dar Adal lock Lockhart in.
"Open the door," demands the senator.
"Make me," rebuffs Saul.
It's a hilarious middle school moment. Of course it is; Dar Adal is involved.
Javadi plays mind games with Carrie on the ride back to his people. He dangles in front of her that he knows whether or not Brody set off the bomb at Langley, or if her ex-lover even had any idea or even handed the keys off.
He tells her that the man who built the bomb and moved the SUV is still alive and in this country. He lets her know that Leland Bennett might be able to help.
Back in Saul's office, he and Dar Adal are toasting to an audacious operation as they receive word that Javadi's plane has taken off. Now they can let Lockhart out of the conference room.
Quinn comes out of the house where the murders took place. Carrie is waiting for him.
"I realized just how through I am with this," he tells Carrie. "I just do not believe it anymore … that anything justifies the damage that we do."
Carrie asks for Quinn's help in proving that Brody wasn't the bomber. He reluctantly agrees. (Reluctant agreement a callback to last week's recap, eh?)
The episode ends with Saul and Mira reconnecting, although she still doesn't confess that she definitely banged the "friend from Mumbai."
Oh Saul, you poor cuckold.

The Vancouver Canucks would love to make a blockbuster two-for-two trade to upgrade their top six forwards. They would happily trade this year's version of Mason Raymond and Mikael Samuelsson, with just 18 goals between them so far, for last year's versions, which ended up with 55.
The key for Vancouver is to get Raymond and Samuelsson scoring. Failing that, one of them could be potential trade bait but GM Mike Gillis is leery of making too many changes on a team that has played so well.
Outside of that, the primary need is a fourth-line centre with lots of playoff experience.
The Calgary Flames' outlook for the deadline will depend entirely on how they perform between now and then. If they continue their surge and are playoff bound or still contending; only spare parts Steve Staios or Anton Babchuk will be shopped.
But if it looks like they're falling out of the picture, interim GM Jay Feaster may re-stock a bare draft pick cupboard by moving rentals Alex Tanguay, Brendan Morrison and Curtis Glencross.
Feaster has been adamant on not moving core players Jarome Iginla, Miikka Kiprusoff, Jay Bouwmeester, Mark Giordano and Robyn Regehr, but if the Flames fall out of the race, we won't be surprised if they consider dealing Regehr as there is interest in him, even with another two years at $4 million per year on his contract.
Oiler GM Steve Tambellini will be all ears leading up to the deadline but whatever moves he considers, they all have to fit with the rebuilding theme in Edmonton. If teams are calling for younger restricted free agents such as Andrew Cogliano or Ladislav Smid, the Oilers will want young players back.
If the Oilers are to consider parting with veterans Dustin Penner and/or Ales Hemsky, and they are likely to field offers on both players, the return has to fit the Oiler master plan on youth.
As for Sheldon Souray, the Oilers are hoping he'll play well enough in the AHL to generate interest. There's an outside chance he could be put on re-entry waivers if an NHL team expresses interest - in which case the Oil would lose half his remaining salary and cap hit - but the more likely scenario is trying to divest 100 per cent of Souray and his contract in an off-season move.

Burgers Have Grown, And So Will Your Waistline
November 2, 2010 by Bob Livingston
Did you know that most restaurant and fast food hamburgers are about 23 percent larger than they were in 1977? That's according to a study conducted by the University of North Carolina. In order to avoid the extra fat and calories, why not skip the main dish and order a filling soup, salad or appetizer instead of an entrée. That way your waist — and your wallet — won't feel the burden from the larger portion.

The coughing can make it hard to breathe. A deep "whooping" sound is often heard when the patient tries to take a breath.I Would Like to Learn About:Expand All Collapse All Causes Pertussis, or whooping cough, is an upper respiratory infection caused by the Bordetella pertussis or Bordetella parapertussis bacteria. It is a serious disease that can cause permanent disability in infants, and even death.When an infected person sneezes or coughs, tiny droplets containing the bacteria move through the air, and the disease is easily spread from person to person.The infection usually lasts 6 weeks.Whooping cough can affect people of any age. Before vaccines were widely available, the disease was most common in infants and young children. Now that most children are immunized before entering school, the higher percentage of cases is seen among adolescents and adults. Symptoms Initial symptoms, similar to the common cold, usually develop about a week after exposure to the bacteria.Common coldThe common cold usually causes a runny nose, nasal congestion, and sneezing. You may also have a sore throat, cough, headache, or other symptoms....ImageRead Article Now Book Mark Article Severe episodes of coughing start about 10 to 12 days later. In children, the coughing often ends with a "whoop" noise. The sound is produced when the patient tries to take a breath. The whoop noise is rare in patients under 6 months of age and in adults.Coughing spells may lead to vomiting or a short loss of consciousness.

However, when the symptoms are not obvious, pertussis may be difficult to diagnose. In very young infants, the symptoms may be caused by pneumonia instead.To know for sure, the health care provider may take a sample of mucus from the nasal secretions and send it to a lab, which tests it for pertussis. While this can offer an accurate diagnosis, the test takes some time, and treatment is usually started before the results are ready.Some patients may have a complete blood count that shows large numbers of lymphocytes.Complete blood countA complete blood count (CBC) test measures the following:The number of red blood cells (RBC count)The number of white blood cells (WBC count)The tota...ImageRead Article Now Book Mark Article Treatment If started early enough, antibiotics such as erythromycin can make the symptoms go away more quickly. Unfortunately, most patients are diagnosed too late, when antibiotics aren't very effective. However, the medicines can help reduce the patient's ability to spread the disease to others.Infants younger than 18 months need constant supervision because their breathing may temporarily stop during coughing spells. Infants with severe cases should be hospitalized.An oxygen tent with high humidity may be used.Fluids may be given through a vein if coughing spells are severe enough to prevent the person from drinking enough fluids.Sedatives (medicines to make you sleepy) may be prescribed for young children.Cough mixtures, expectorants, and suppressants are usually not helpful and should NOT be used. Outlook (Prognosis) In older children, the outlook is generally very good. Infants have the highest risk of death, and need careful monitoring.

(Check out my online training courses: SQL Server: Detecting and Correcting Database Corruption and SQL Server: Advanced Corruption Recovery Techniques. We can also help you with disaster recovery.)
As a follow-up to my previous post Disaster recovery 101: backing up the tail of the log, I want to describe how to re-attach a damaged database if someone's detached it accidentally while performing disaster recovery. A couple of years ago I blogged a detailed post on Creating, detaching, re-attaching, and fixing a suspect database but now I'd like to do a short, concise post for reference.
There are many reasons why you may have a damaged database that you're trying to attach to SQL Server:
- It may be a SUSPECT database that someone is erroneously trying to fix by detaching+attaching
- It may be a damaged database from a server that is inaccessible that needs to be attached for disaster recovery
- It may be a database you've been sent/given that was not cleanly shut down (i.e. there were active transactions) and you were not given the transaction log file
In any of these scenarios, a damaged database cannot be attached to SQL Server using the normal methods: sp_attach_db, CREATE DATABASE … FOR ATTACH, or CREATE DATABASE … FOR ATTACH_REBUILD_LOG (the latter two being in SQL Server 2005 onwards). Either the data file damage will prevent the attach, or the log file damage will prevent crash recovery from being started or completed.
To attach the database you need to fool SQL Server into thinking it's already attached. The set of steps to go through are as follows:
- Create a dummy database, with the same name, the same number of data and log files, with the same file names and same file IDs (make sure you have instant file initialization enabled so the file creations don't take ages – see this blog post). This can be tricky to do if you've added removed files, but you need to make sure the file IDs are exactly the same.
- Set the dummy database offline (ALTER DATABASE SET RealDatabaseName OFFLINE) or shut the server down
- Delete all the data and log files from the dummy database
- Drop in as many of the data and log files from the damaged database as possible
- Set the dummy database online (ALTER DATABASE SET RealDatabaseName ONLINE) or start the server if you shut it down for step 2
At this point SQL Server will be fooled into thinking the database is attached (as it thinks it's just restarting the dummy one you created) and you'll be able to take further measures to recover the database.
Further measures may include:
- Taking a tail-of-the-log backup to use as part of a restore sequence (see this blog post)
- Use EMERGENCY mode to extract data into a new database
- Using EMERGENCY mode repair to repair a damaged transaction log (see this blog post)
Note: it's entirely possible that your database may be so damaged that not even EMERGENCY mode repair can fix it. If you cannot even get the database into EMERGENCY mode (e.g. if the database boot page, or the primary file's file header page is damaged) then there is no way for SQL Server to access the database. At this point the only option is to restore from backups. If you don't have backups, game over.
Hope this helps!

Summary: A young woman's impassioned pursuit of a sealed cache of T. S. Eliot's letters lies at the heart of this emotionally charged novel -- a story of marriage and madness, of faith and desire, of jazz-age New York and Europe in the shadow of the Holocaust. The Archivist was a word-of-mouth bestseller and one of the most jubilantly acclaimed first novels of recent years.

Tomorrow's Nobodies
Follow the lives of these wild teens as they do crazy things!
The Little Freakin' Knight!
The Grim Reaper Show
Death finally gets his own show and a chance to speak his mind.
(The movie is about 13.5 MB, so go get a snack while you wait for it to load if you have a slow connection.)
UPDATE THE THIRD: And thanks again for helping us get weekly 5th!
UPDATE THE 2ND: Thanks for putting us on the front page!
UPDATE: Thanks everyone for giving "Legends" the votes to get Daily First!
Some Legends speak of heroes... and some speak of... these guys.
The carefully laid plans of the "Cult of the Lich" go horribly awry, as the Lord of Death himself is summoned into the world after being trapped in a dark tome for thousands of years. Our two unlikely heroes, the bumbling wizard wanna-be Xiphon, and his height impaired companion Slinks, are exiled to a evil forest and begin their quest to right the wrongs they help caused... or to just get into more trouble.
"Legends of the Black Book - Part 1" is the debut effort by team Toonwerks... made up of three Flash old-timers Casey McDonald ("Xiphon"), Mark Schneider ("th1rt3en"), and Joseph Blanchette ("LegendaryFrog" ;). With the goal of delivering original and smart animations, each one of us play to our strengths to give the the best possible experience to the viewer. We hope you enjoy the first part of this multi part series, and urge you to give feedback so we can make improvements in the future!
nice job guys
it was pretty funny, i also liked the characters alot especially the wizard. I have to say... seeing legendaryfrog's classic animation style brings me back to when i used to watch his flashes when i was in 5th grade, hell of a nostalgia trip i must say.
it dose sound better with the music and its still just as funny woot!!
I remember this! ^o^
What a great remake of this series episode, Great improvement too.
Coolness. Hope to see the rest of this story, LF. ^o^
that was so random. that wizard is fucking funny. plz make more 5/5 10/10
Most funny thing ever. I look forward to the next episode :-)

Major infrastructure improvements typically occur in the denser populations of cities. So were tipping our hat to AT&T for deploying fiber-to-the-node in at least some rural areas to deliver its U-verse broadband Internet service. Its not as fast as cable, but its almost twice as fast as conventional DSL service.
58. Turntable.FM (online music service)
This online service graced our Top 100 last year. When we heard the company had a mobile app, we fell in love all over again. The social music service works perfectly on the go, and it's fun to DJ while riding the bus. Play on, party people!
59. Netgear NeoTV Max (media streamer)
The year 2012 wasnt a big one for new media streamers, but the NeoTV Max is a honey. It can stream nearly anything over your network (with the exception of DVD and Blu-ray ISO images); plus, you can send audio and video to your TV from any laptop outfitted with Intels WiDi technology.
60. Scrivener for Windows (word processor/project organizer)
Few writers can brain-dump an entire novel or research proposal straight into a word processor. Scrivener for Windows, a PC version of the popular Mac program, helps you organize your ideas and notes. You can switch between corkboard, outline, and continuous-flow "scrivening" views to see how your opus is shaping up.
61. ADT Pulse Premier (home control/security system)
ADTs home security and automation system is almost as good as Vivints; plus, ADT will install in-wall lighting controls if you prefer. The company added electronic door locks, a new touch-screen control panel, and more advanced cameras, too. ADTs up-front costs are higher, but its contracts are shorter.
62. Intuit QuickBooks Pro (accounting software)
Woe to the small-business owner who doesnt balance the ledger. QuickBooks isnt the most powerful software for the task, but its very easy for novices to set up and use. If it doesnt handle a function you need, a third-party add-on probably does.
63. Epson WorkForce WP-4540 (multifunction printer)
This fast, capable, business-minded inkjet multifunction is a leader among the new generation of no-regrets inkjets for the office. The best-balanced among many strong contenders, it brings swift performance, spiffy output quality, and a whopping 580 sheets of standard input. Ink is cheap, too. Low-end color lasers should be worried.
64. Lytro Light-Field Camera (digital camera)

Panorpa banksi Hine, 1901
Diagnosis: This species is part of the nebulosa group with speckled wings and male without an anal horn on the 6th abdominal tergite. Furthermore, P. banksi belongs to a subgroup without a tuft of spines at the apico-mesal corner of the basistyles and no bristles along the mesal margin of the hypovalves. Within this subgroup P. banksi is distinctive due to its elongate male genital bulb, elongate ventral parameres, and lack of elongation of the aedeagus between the dististyles.
Distribution – Geographical: This species is found in a spotty distribution along the East Coast of U.S.A from Maine southward to Georgia and westward in the Midwest from Indiana to southeastern Iowa.
Distribution – Temporal: 10 May until 26 August.
Ecology: This species is found in shaded broadleaf forests with high humidity. Adults rest on herbaceous understory plants, such as raspberry and poison ivy.
Biology: This species has been reared by A.R. (Randy) Thornhill and the fourth instar larva described by Ann Boese (1973).
Notes: This species was named for Nathan Banks, longtime Professor at Harvard University and student of Neuroptera and Mecoptera systematics.
Boese, A.E. 1973. Descriptions of larvae and key to fourth instars of North American Panorpa (Mecoptera: Panorpidae). Kansas University Science Bulletin, 50:163-186.

A haven of calm and tranquility
Arriving at Tomhegan camp is a joy after leaving London 2 days before. The situation on Moosehead Lake is perfect and it combines the peace of the forest with the reassurance of knowing people are around and there are always Kayaks to be rented. The cabin we stayed in was perfectly comfortable without being over appointed and we could watch the deer and wild life roam in front of the house. The water was surprisingly warm and a joy to swim in. Perfectly clear of course.We went for long walks, good kayak trips and treated ourselves to a trip in a 1954 build Seaplane which I can recommend. Our teenage/young 20's 'children' enjoyed it as well and appreciated the nature. I enjoyed the long private drive (4 miles maybe) which was perfect for a morning run. The camp is very well looked after by Norm and Leona who even treated us to a trip on their boat and made us feel really at home. Boats/kayaks/canoe are available for hire. We look forward to returning one day.
Great for a family reunion
The owners were great to deal with, description of the property was very accurate. I would definitely recommend for friends.

Lovely condo, spotlessly clean, gret location
We loved this place! Location was very quiet and private with a beautiful view of the golf course. We enjoyed a relaxing 4 days of golf, massage, wine tasting in Traverse City and some delicious meals. We hope to come back for fall colors and perhaps winter crosscountry skiing and will definately consider coming back here. Thank you Connie for providing such a lovely and affordable retreat!
Family Vacation
The area is quiet and relaxing with nice amenities. The area is conveniently located about halfway between Mackinac Island and the Sleeping Bear Dunes, which are great day trips from here. The Condo is relatively close to a grocery store, gas station and a atm. The condo is literally on the 10th tee. The owner was good to work with, very nice. If you venture to Traverse City, try the Blue Tractor and definitely go to Moomers for ice cream. Charlevoix isn't too far either and is a cute artsy town.
Good shape!
We had a very good experience. We stayed in that Condo about 3 times before and like the location. We feed and watch birds, read, rest, walk, ride bike, fish and do day trips. We thank Debbie for making the arrangements.

POZ Playlist: Tell All Your Friends Tour
What a Playlist we have in store for you today. Taking Back Sunday and Bayside are taking out Man Overboard, Transit, Mansions, and Gabriel The Marine throughout different points on their Tell All Your Friends ten year anniversary tour, and we couldn't help putting all six of the bands together for a new PropertyOfZack Playlist feature. Check out the Playlists below while listening to the songs on Spotify and reading everyone's thoughts!
Songs by each of the bands on #TAYF10 Tour!
There are a lot of older bands that have really cool, kick ass new records out. Some of my favorite bands ever like Nofx, Bouncing souls and Hot Water music. On the other hand, lots of great newer bands have some great releases out, bands like Candy Hearts, Sainthood Reps and Pure Love. Here are a few songs I picked out for you all to check out! - Nick Ghanbarian
I think I would write the same thing for all of these songs so I will write this… this is my favorite kind of music… epic punk songs that pull at your heart strings and make you want to sing along. The Bouncing Souls are the best at writing songs like this but there are some other completely worthy bands on this list… some friends, some not - kudos to them all for writing songs that I love and that make me want to play music. - Justin Collier
Music has given me more in life then just about anything. Here are a songs by bands I have discovered recently and a few that I've been into for the past few years. I hope you enjoy this playlist as much as I do and Thanks goes out to anyone who has supported our band Transit over the years, we are all very grateful to have you all along on this ride with us. - Joe Boynton
2 Chainz - Birthday Song
I love the current trend of weird—pop-rap. This kind of music scares me in the best way, where I totally have no idea what is coming next, lyrically, musically, or visually.
Person L - OK
I never thought the Weatherbox/Person L split would ever actually come out. It seemed like the Chinese Democracy of whatever. But it was worth the wait, cause both bands' songs are killer.
Margot & The Nuclear So and Sos - Disease Tobacco Free
Can't get enough of this band, and they don't get enough recognition. They are consistently making some of the best and more interesting rock records around.
Todd Rundgren - Hello It's Me
I could listen to this song all day. Totally weird dude singing a totally sweet song.
G.O.O.D Music – Mercy *Song is not on Spotify
Another one of these, I can't get enough. The video rules too.
Gary Numan - Cars
We randomly listened to this super loud in the car the other day and it was unbelievable. I wish I wrote songs like this.
St. Vincent - Cheerleader
I was completely 100% late to the St. Vincent train, and this song makes me regret it.
10cc - I'm Not In Love
Another weird pop song, I guess that's the theme of this playlist. They took something pretty and sappy and put enough bizarre layers on it that it rules. - Chris Browder
Ten songs for our Playlist for Taking Back Sunday's Tell All Your Friends Tour!

Hanna Steel Corp., a Fairfield, Ala.-based manufacturer of mechanical tubing and hollow structural sections, has sued Wachovia Corp. and related companies, alleging the bank steered the company into buying auction rate securities that weren't liquid, or cash equivalents, as required in its credit agreement with the bank.
More steel-related worker layoffs are on the way, with three manufacturers of pipe and tube products—Tenaris SA, Allegheny Technologies Inc. (ATI) and U.S. Steel Corp.—responding to the global economic crisis by slating staff cutbacks.
Rio Tinto has idled a pig iron plant in Kwinana, Western Australia, for at least three months and closed its 11 iron ore mines in the Pilbara region of the country for two weeks in an effort to cut production there by 10 percent before the end of the year, according to press reports.
Perspectives loves nothing more than a juicy legal fight. And that's what we've got on our hands between Plymouth Tube Co. and Salem Steel North America LLC.
Surely you've read this issue's top story already . . . More than 1.8 million tons of new spiral-weld line pipe capacity!
Plumbing new lows, pipe and tube shipments and inventories fell sharply in November, according to Michelle Applebaum Research Inc. and the latest data from the Metals Service Center Institute.
You might think an economic stimulus package that could top $850 billion in cost and likely includes at least $150 billion for infrastructure would work some steel pipe and tube producers into a lather.
Plymouth Tube Co. has warned that it will lay off 31 employees at its East Troy, Wis., facility in the New Year.
The economic sky might be falling, but that doesn't appear to be dimming the optimism of executives at new, large outside-diameter (OD) spiral-weld pipe mills in North America.
Some folks in the pipe and tube business have been abuzz with gossip that Tenaris SA backing off a planned $1.6 billion small-diameter seamless pipe mill project in Veracruz, Mexico.
The West Coast market for structural steel tubing continued to reel from a price cut of more than $200 per ton by one of North America's largest producers.
Welded Tube of Canada (WTC) is moving ahead with a plan kicked off in 2005 to expand into the energy sector, according to a recent announcement.
China has asked the World Trade Organization (WTO) to establish a panel to investigate U.S. anti-dumping and countervailing duties on Chinese exports, including steel pipe, that it claims may violate WTO trade rules, the state-owned Xinhua News Agency reported.
The steady decline in hot-rolled band prices in most of the world continued over the past two weeks.
With the news in early December that Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. had called a temporary hiatus to new acquisitions, it became clear that the age of consolidation in the U.S. service center industry hit a speed bump. After all, the more than 40 purchases engineered by the Los Angeles-based distribution network since it went public in 1994 has been largely responsible for Reliance becoming the nation's largest metals distributor.
Steel companies with significant or even higher-than-average levels of inventory and long or slowing inventory turns are particularly exposed to material inventory impairments due to the sudden and dramatic drop in steel prices during the fourth quarter, Moody's Investors Service said in an outlook report released Tuesday.
Spain's Barna Conshipping SL has filed suit in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia to appropriate 2,000 tonnes of "abandoned" steel sitting on board a ship anchored off the coast of Norfolk.
Northwest Pipe Co. is in line to supply about $7 million of large-diameter pipe for a Mexican hydroelectric plant.
The free-fall in steel demand may stabilize during the first quarter but demand in key end markets, particularly automotive and commercial construction, will remain "lackluster," according to an outlook issued Tuesday by Moody's Investors Service, New York.
Are you stocking more inventory today than 18 months ago?
We recognize that it takes time to learn to make good, quality steel. And we're not underestimating the need to do that and do it right.
--Mark Bula, Big River Steel

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Many people in America are counting down the days until Super Bowl Sunday on February 2.
NEWS10 ABC's Josh Sims is in New Jersey for Media Day on Tuesday and he describes the event as a circus.
Sherman, who is quickly becoming the most talked about player in the upcoming

"The Super Bowl is a huge event there's a lot of cameras a lot of different languages, a lot of countries, a lot of diversity. I love it," he said.

"This has been the 2nd chapter of my career and it's an exciting chapter, I'm certainly excited to be back in the Super Bowl on behalf of the Denver Broncos," said Manning.
On the other end of the spectrum, Manning's counterpart Russell Wilson is just starting his career and his first media day.
"I'm just beginning and Peyton has done so many wonderful things, so many things I have respect for, first of all he's a great human being, a great quarterback , a great leader," said Wilson.
Media day is just the tip of the iceberg while Wednesday, Super Bowl Boulevard opens up right in the heart of Manhattan.

No sooner did the shooting begin at New River Community College, calls flooded dispatch shortly after 1:55. Some of the first callers describe what was said when they saw the shooter who Christiansburg police say was Neil MaCinnis.
Operator: Christiansburg 911 where is your emergency.
Caller: Hi someone just ran into the new river community college with a shotgun and told everyone to run.
Operator: New River Community College with a shotgun?
Caller: Yes Ma'am (inaudible)
Many heard multiple gun shots and paint a chaotic scene seconds after the first shots.
Caller: I am at the mall alongside new river
Operator: Uh huh
Caller: And we just heard a lot of really loud shots it sounded like. A whole classroom just got up and ran.
For some locked down in stores they didn't know what was going on. So they called police to ask. Around 1:58 police begin surrounding the mall and arrested MacInnis.
Officer: suspect is in custody
As police tried to find out how many people were injured, a call comes in about a victim.
Caller: Yes there is a shooting here at the mall, at new river community college
Operator: Okay where are you at right now?
Caller: I am in the back of our restaurant right now at subway
Operator: Okay did you see the shooter?
Caller: We did not, we seen a girl come by our work, holding her hip, she has been shot.
Operator: Okay where is she at right now?
Caller: She is next door to the restaurant beside us, with some people.
Operator: And what is that restaurant
Caller: That is the Ragu's restaurant
Operator: Okay y'all need to stay out of sight and get yourself in a safe place.
Around 2:05 p.m. a lifeguard helicopter is called to scene to transport a victim. And around 2:12 police begin to escort shoppers and students out of the mall to safety. Clearing the mall to insure no other shooters were inside and the worst of it was over with a suspect in custody, and the two victims out of harm's way.
Tuesday is the first night for volunteers enrolled in this fall's Citizen's Academy. Some choose to continue that training through the Citizens on Patrol Academy.

Adult Fiction FERRARI
Summary: Women in Saudi Arabia are expected to lead quiet lives circumscribed by Islamic law and tradition. But Katya, one of the few women in the medical examiner's office, is determined to make her work mean something. When the body of a brutally beaten woman is found on the beach in Jeddah, the city's detectives are ready to dismiss the case as another unsolvable murder-chillingly common in a city where the veils of conservative Islam keep women as anonymous in life as the victim is in death. If this is another housemaid killed by her employer, finding the culprit will be all but impossible. Only Katya is convinced that the victim can be identified and her killer found. She calls upon her friend Nayir for help, and soon discovers that the dead girl was a young filmmaker named Leila, whose controversial documentaries earned her many enemies. With only the woman's clandestine footage as a guide, Katya and Nayir must confront the dark side of Jeddah that Leila struggled to expose: an underworld of prostitution, violence, exploitation, and jealously guarded secrets. Along the way, they form an unlikely alliance with an American woman whose husband has disappeared. Their growing search takes them from the city's car-clogged streets to the deadly vastness of the desert beyond. In CITY OF VEILS, award-winning author Zo Ferraris combines a thrilling, fast-paced mystery with a rare and intimate look into women's lives in the Middle East.

A Las Vegas Judge is set to hear oral arguments in Reno on Monday regarding Nevada's same-sex marriage ban.
The hearing comes after a gay rights advocacy group filed a lawsuit challenging the ban.
District Judge Robert Jones says he wants to quickly decide on the suit that names Governor Sandoval and various other officials.
The lawsuit focuses on the differences between rights granted by the state in 2009 and a gay marriage ban that was voted on back in 2002.
Jones says he plans to rely on written statements and not courtroom testimony from people offered as experts.
