Theater at Goshen
The theater program at Goshen College has a strong liberal arts emphasis grounded in communication and performance theory. Students explore major historical, philosophical and artistic movements; gain experience in specialized areas of theater design, acting, voice and directing; and take courses from other departments that augment knowledge and skills for theater studies. Students may focus on theatrical design with art department courses; performance with music classes; oral and written communication with communication courses; and language and literature with courses from the foreign language and English departments.
Central to the theater program itself are productions of full-length mainstage shows and one act plays each semester, providing students with the opportunity to learn and apply both technical and artistic skills. Students are encouraged to explore the many facets of theatrical productions first-hand as actors, designers, technicians and directors.
Auditions are open and encouraged to all–whether you are a math, English or business major. In addition to acting roles, there are also opportunities to stage manage, work with lighting and costumes, and various other assistant roles.

Reader Story: Starting a Successful Business as a Single Person
Published on - April 22nd, 2012 (by J.D. Roth)
This guest post from Kelly is part of the "reader stories" feature at Get Rich Slowly. Some stories contain general advice; others are examples of how a GRS reader achieved financial success or failure. These stories feature folks with all levels of financial maturity and income. Want submit your own reader story? Here's how.
When I was younger, I'd always planned to be a professor in the social sciences field. I studied hard through college and was accepted into a top graduate program in my chosen discipline. But after spending three years in my program, I realized (much to my dismay) that it wasn't a good fit for me. I ended up switching programs and completed a different degree altogether.
When I graduated at the age of 26, I immediately moved across the country and then had to decide on a new career path. Although I'd worked at summer jobs and part-time jobs since the age of 16, I'd never actually had a real grown-up job. I interviewed for a few positions, but didn't find anything that spoke to me. So, I decided to start my own business instead.
Minding My Own Business
The prevailing wisdom on starting a business is to do what you know. The thing that I knew how to do was standardized test preparation (for tests like the SAT and ACT). I got involved with test preparation after studying countless hours for the GRE for graduate school admission. I decided that I should use that knowledge for something, so I went to work for one of the major test preparation companies. I worked there on the side during graduate school and then later worked for a private company.
After several months of extensive reading and a meeting or two with the people at SCORE, I was ready to get started. At the time, I was single and without any consistent source of income. I'd also just moved, so I had no social connections and had to start everything completely from scratch. I had a small cushion of savings that I had built up during graduate school, though, which allowed me some flexibility.
My business started very slowly as I experimented with gaining clients. I got a few clients from Craigslist and two from a very pricey magazine advertising experiment.
During my first year, my fledgling company brought in about $20,000.
The next year revenues doubled, and then they doubled again. In year three (which was smack in the middle of the economic meltdown), revenue crossed over into the six-figure territory and has continued to increase every year since.
Barriers to Success
Starting a new business is always challenging, but I faced some extra challenges as a single person.
Most obviously, I didn't have another source of income to fall back upon if my business didn't succeed. This was actually a positive in many ways, in that I quickly realized that if I didn't work, I didn't eat. It was also pretty empowering in those early days to be able to support myself on something that I had literally created from nothing.
Health insurance was another major factor, and one that almost kept me from starting my business. My graduate school insurance lasted a few months after I graduated, so I used that time to start looking for an individual plan through EhealthInsurance.com. As a fit, healthy, non-smoker, I didn't anticipate having much of a problem finding a policy. However, individual health insurers can reject applications for the smallest of reasons, and my application got rejected by at least five companies. Luckily, I finally found one company that would insure me. It's expensive, but I will never, ever drop the coverage since I'm not likely to ever find coverage again.
Buying a house was also tricky as a single, self-employed person. Well, that's not true. Buying my place was disturbingly easy. I bought a small condo in 2006 (the height of the housing bubble), shortly after I moved. Although I didn't have an actual job, or a history of steady employment, I was given a 7.0% stated income mortgage (a.k.a., liar's loan).
However, when the rates started dropping a few years later, I wanted to re-finance to a shorter term and that's where I started running into trouble. Although I had plenty of income at that time to support the mortgage, the mortgage company kept requiring more and more documentation because I was self-employed. One refinance fell through altogether, but I was eventually able to refinance twice in the past two years (lowering the term each time).
One unhappy surprise that comes along with being a single, small business owner is taxes. Self-employment tax (having to pay both the employer and employee portion of Social Security and Medicare) is already shocking in itself. But since I'm single and don't have children, I have virtually no deductions that I can take other than those related to my house.
One of the only tax-reducing mechanisms available to me is a retirement account. I have a Solo 401k, which allows for contributions for up to $49,000, depending on business income. I have been maxing out my account for the past few years, and this has saved me a bundle on taxes.
The Single Advantage
There were a few factors that made it much easier for me to start a business as a single person:
- I had an immaculate credit score. My parents taught me how to use checking accounts, savings accounts and credit cards from a pretty early age, and I took those lessons to heart. I'm pretty sure the only reason I was able to get my house was because of my credit score.
- I was able to get through graduate school with no consumer debt or student loans. Based on my GRE scores (which, ironically, eventually led to the creation of my business), I received a fellowship that paid tuition and a small living stipend. I had a tiny undergraduate loan, but the payment was very small. Had I had large debt, I would have had to get a "real" job to service the payments.
- I always had my eyes open for extra ways to make more money. Both during graduate school and the early years of my business, I took on all kinds of side-hustles. Among other things, I mystery-shopped, took internet surveys when they were still lucrative, started a text-book selling business, taught classes for other businesses, did freelance editing, found temporary jobs on Craiglist, and worked at a summer camp. Each little bit helped while my company was still getting off the ground.
As a recent GRS commenter pointed out, there aren't a whole lot of stories out there about single, successful entrepreneurs. Not having a partner to fall back on can make starting a business a lot more difficult, but it is quite satisfying to build something awesome all on your own.
This article is about Entrepreneurship, Reader Stories
Great post! Good luck with your future endeavors!
Great post! I'd love to hear about more of the challenges you faced doing all that!
I think this story is very interesting, but I would like to hear about single business owners/entrepreneurs who feel like they have to insure their business or take additional steps to protect their personal assets before even starting. Or how their risk tolerance influences their choice of errors and omissions insurance, general liability, and forming an LLC.
While I do feel like "just get started" is a VERY good philosophy about generating income or starting a business, I feel like being more informed is preferable to being less informed.
If anyone out there has some stories about that portion of starting a business, I would definitely be interested in hearing about it.
I think there's a big difference between starting a business soon after graduating versus starting a business when you have an established career. There are disadvantages and advantages to both.
I'd be interested in hearing more of these stories too.
Structuring as an S-corp can help reduce the self-employment tax. While not always the way to go, it tends to be the way I see most self-employed incorporate.
It does by making the employer's portion tax-deductible as a business expense, but it still has to be paid in full, and going from a sole proprietorship to a corporation adds to bookkeeping and reporting costs.
I did actually just go through the process of changing my tax status to LLC taxed as an S Corp this past month. It does add an extra layer of complexity and expense (I had to hire a payroll company and now have to pay into unemployment insurance), but it now makes sense for my business to be structured that way because the savings will outweigh the costs.
S-Corp's have many other advantages. Not for the small mom & pop places but for someone with 6 figure income S-Corp is likely the way to go.
Mmmm quite illuminating,wish i read this before starting out.Not late though can still integrate some ideas even now
Great story! I like your attitude of going for it all.
I have not started my own business, but I had a similar situation in other bits — I started a PhD program and decided it just wasn't the right match for me. I finished my MS and moved on to other things. What really saved my butt in this whole process was also not having loans. I can't explain enough how valuable that has been in allowing me to explore jobs and possibilities for life without worrying about the size of the paycheck. I'm now finishing a second grad program (that required some small loans, unfortunately), and I know this is the right step based on the exploration I was able to do thanks to no loans and living frugally on what I did make.
I'm currently in grad school (PhD) and thinking about what to do afterwards. I enjoy teaching, but there are so few full time (i.e. tenure track jobs) out there, and I don't want to be teaching sessional my whole life. The idea of starting a business is appealing to me, but I find it hard to come up with a good idea for a business. It's good to hear how other people came up with (and implemented) their business ideas.
Hi Kelly
What is the name of your company and website. I have two daughters graduating this month and need to prepare for the GRE's for their future graduate work.
As you indicated there are pros and cons for a single entrepreneur. I see many more positives such as time, no agreement or explanations if things go bad. Sure you miss out in the sharing, support, additional income, but those are just additional pluses.
Kelly, thanks for sharing your story! It's nice to hear the background information about you not being in debt… helping you to get off on the right track.
Charitable contributions will also help you, when you have little or no deductions other than mortgage interest, and the organization to which you contribute.
I, too, am self-employed, and the amount of money I pay to the IRS in the form of quarterly payments about gives my husband and I heart failure.
Great article. I always like reading about other peoples journey to success.
Thanks for sharing.. I'm curious as to how the banks looked at your income when you own your own business. I'm sure you were deducting many of your expenses, thus lowering your 'income' right?
I'm thinking of some day transitioning to my own business but I'm a little worried about how that will look to banks when I want to purchase real estate.
Thanks for sharing your story. It is encouraging to read about someone who had the courage to take step many of us wish we had the guts to take! Well done!
Also, it's good to see someone plow ahead through the obstacles that inevitably present themselves. All of us can use more of that, I think.
Finally, kudos for a non-writer to take up the (electronic) for our benefit!
Your story surely inspired many of us. yes the insurance piece is scary. Still if we can we should look in to something similar.
I am very curious about your textbook selling business (the side hustle you mentioned). Would you be up for sharing any of the details of how that worked?
Also, I think it's very encouraging to hear that you have doubled your income in the first 3 years of your business…that certainly does not always happen! My hats off!
I enjoyed hearing your story. It was very inspiring and encouraging!
This article came right on time for me. I have been mulling turning my passion for editing papers and essays into a side business. I currently have a full time job but I definitely think that I can do this on the weekends. Thanks for the inspiration!
This is an awesome story. It makes me nervous in the retelling but it's awesome you "made it" and you're here on the other side of six figures telling your tale.
Like a lot of other people mentioned, health insurance is a necessary evil. With my own business (where I'm the sole employee), I've been fortunate to get insurance through a state-sponsored program targeted to small businesses, which allows my employees (me) to get "group" coverage; as a result, I have Blue Cross/Blue Shield for myself and my family (wife + 2 kids). It's pricey–$1,200 per month–but worth it, and 100% of the premiums are paid as an employee benefit, which is essentially like paying the premiums with pre-tax dollars.

Everton continued their pursuit of the Under-18s Premier League North Group title with a 2-1 home win over West Ham United on Saturday lunchtime.
Delial Brewster opened the scoring for Kevin Sheedy's scholars on 20 minutes after good build-up play involving Oliver Shannon.
The hosts drew back level shortly before the interval with strike from an acute angle by Jerry Amoo which deflected past Russell Griffiths.
The Blues keeper then made an excellent penalty save shortly after the restart to keep the scores level, denying Kieran Bywater after Jake Adelson had committed a foul on Marcio Martins inside the area.
It proved a decisive moment in the contest as Everton won the game 20 minutes before full-time.
Harry Charsley chased down the West Ham keeper's clearance, with the ball rebounding off the midfielder and into the net.
The young Blues came close to making it three late on but Calum Dyson's goalbound effort was acrobatically tipped onto the post by the Hammers' stopper.
Everton Under-18s have now won seven of their last eight league fixtures and coach Sheedy was understandably delighted with another positive result that keeps his team in contention at the summit of the league.
He told evertonfc.com: "We are on course to qualify for the semi-finals after another good performance. Our players are taking their opportunity and as a group we are showing that we are motivated to finish the season strongly."

Apple is aiming to improve the search and discovery features in its App Store, with the purchase of Australian start-up Chomp a search engine for apps, TechCrunch reported. Chomp develops tools that help users find new and relevant applications on iOS and Android devices.
The deal will help Apple improve its own search systems as its store now boasts over 500,000 apps – further evidence that app store optimization is needed.
Chomp chief executive Ben Keighran and chief technology officer Cathy Edwards have already moved to Apple, sourced told 9to5Mac. The site reported that Keighran is working with the iTunes marketing team and Edwards is a senior iTunes engineer.
Bloomberg later reported the deal was worth $50 million, although this is unconfirmed.
Apple didn't confirm the deal outright, but in a statement acknowledged it does make acquisitions from time to time: "We buy smaller technology companies from time to time and generally don't comment on our purposes or plans."
The deal comes at the same time that Apple held its annual shareholder meeting in California, during which chief executive Tim Cook spoke on a number of issues around the company's future, including what the company may do with its huge cash reserves of $100 billion.
"On cash, we've been thinking about cash very deeply, the board has been looking into what is in shareholders' best interest," he said, according to a cbnc.com live blog of the event. "We will do what we think is in the best interest of shareholders."

The Other League
The short-lived American Football League, merged into the NFL after Super Bowl IV, invented the modern media spectacle that is pro football. And three Jews invented the show that was the AFL.
James Drake
The NFL team that drafted Namath, the St. Louis (football) Cardinals, offered him $200,000. That equaled the signing bonus Namath eventually got from the Jets. All told, Namath's contract was worth $427,000 (including the value of a Lincoln Continental), an amount so huge it was its own story—which was half of why Werblin did it. "I don't know whether you'll play on our team or make a picture for Universal," Werblin told his new quarterback, according to Sports Illustrated (just in case, Werblin also signed Huarte, Notre Dame's Heisman Trophy-winner). In fact, Namath was a certain kind of gridiron genius, the first quarterback to throw for 4,000 yards in a season and the leader of the Jets team that won Super Bowl III. But just as important for the AFL and the future of professional football, he was Broadway Joe: football's first mass media-age star.
The Jets quickly became attendance kings, and other AFL teams enjoyed their strongest fan showings whenever the Jets were visiting. Namath's youth, casual attitude, and sex appeal helped associate the AFL, already football's alternative league, with the '60s counterculture. "A lot of people became AFL fans just to bug their fathers," says Ange Coniglio, who runs the fan website Remember the AFL. (Joe Namath had the honor of being the only athlete to appear on Nixon's Enemies List.) Above all, the Namath signing and the NBC deal—both Werblin's doing—signaled that the AFL was not going away, which meant the NFL had to get serious about a merger.
The General
"You're not a wartime consigliere," Michael Corleone tells his adopted brother, Tom, in The Godfather, pushing him aside. One imagines a similar conversation taking place among the AFL owners in April 1966, when, sensing war on the horizon, they replaced jovial commissioner Joe Foss with Al Davis, then the head coach and general manager of the Oakland Raiders. Among Davis' first moves was to demand a new office in New York. "I want to be on the top floor of a building," Joanne Parker, a former staffer, recalls Davis insisting. "I want the entire floor, and I want the elevator to be such that nobody else can get to that floor."
Think of the person you know who has the biggest chip on his or her shoulder. Then add football genius, paranoia, and overtly Machiavellian tendencies. Finally, multiply the size of the shoulder-chip by 50. I ask Glenn Dickey, who covered Davis as the San Francisco Chronicle's Raiders beat writer in the late '60s, where Davis got his me-against-everyone mentality. "We always wondered that, too," he says. While the NFL's Pete Rozelle was firmly establishment and Lamar Hunt, a child of privilege, was a rebel purely out of necessity, Davis was—is—a rebel by nature. "He's always had something in him that made him feel like an outsider," says Dickey, "and he enjoyed that role."
George Rose/Getty Images
Born in Brockton, Massachusetts, he attended Brooklyn's Erasmus Hall High School and then Syracuse, where the coach did not give him the playing-time he felt he deserved—forging, or at least adding to, his grudge against the universe. His military affectations were refined while coaching at The Citadel; he later coached at the University of Southern California and for Gillman's Chargers before heading north, to Oakland. "It's dangerous to put Al in this group of AFL guys," MacCambridge warns me. "In so many ways he is an American original." He was born on July 4, 1929, and is known for two three-word phrases that seem applicable to any life situation: "Commitment to excellence" and "Just win, baby." (There is a splendid third, lesser-known quip of his: "Anything good in this life is worth cheating for.") Today, at 81, he is still the principal owner of, as he always pronounces it in full Brooklyn splendor, "the Raiduhs."
Earlier than any other franchise, The Raiduhs stood—and continue to stand—for something beyond their location, their colors (a menacing silver and black), and whoever happens to manage, coach, and play for them at any particular time. They were the first team with an identity in a league that now relies on such identities to market itself. And what is the Raiders' identity? The team with a chip on its shoulder. When NFL Network counted down its "Top Ten Feuds," number one was "Raiders vs. the world."
Part of Davis' brilliance was football. In his first year as head coach, he turned a 1-13 team into a 10-4 one. In 1966, back from his brief stint as the AFL's second and final commissioner—he returned as general manager, not coach, and he picked up his first ownership stake then—he initiated Bill Walsh's coaching career, putting him in charge of the running backs. He added to Gillman's passing game—he was a particular fan, says Dickey, of Gillman's "East Formation," in which two receivers line up to the quarterback's right (which at the time was unusual)—and the Raiders, even more than the Chargers, became known as the top vertical passing team, winning the 1967 AFL Championship with QB Daryl "The Mad Bomber" Lamonica. The Raiders proudly built an identity as being tougher than everyone else. "There was a philosophy in the '60s that if a player was too idiosyncratic, that player could not help the team," MacCambridge says, citing anecdotes of coaches like Paul Brown and Vince Lombardi chastising players for missing assignments right after they had scored touchdowns on electric, improvisational plays. "Davis was among the first of football men, as a coach and an executive, to recognize that was hogwash."
As AFL commissioner, Davis did not strike the deal that led to the historic merger of the two leagues. Instead, he lured the NFL into war and then proved a formidable foe, creating a climate where the non-psychopaths could move in, strike a deal, and make the peace.
There was an unwritten agreement that while the two leagues would hold their own drafts and compete over college prospects, teams would not poach veteran free agents from the other league. That understanding was shattered one month after Davis became commissioner when the Giants—frightened by Werblin and Namath's resurgent Jets across the river—signed Pete Gogolak, the star soccer-style placekicker of the AFL's Buffalo Bills. Davis immediately perceived Gogolak for the Fort Sumter he needed, and he quickly counterattacked, getting AFL teams to go on a spending spree for NFL free agents. Prowling his penthouse office, muttering things like, "The guerrilla wins if he doesn't lose," Davis targeted three types of players: the stars, because they were stars (Bears tight end Mike Ditka signed with the AFL's Houston Oilers, though never got the chance to play for them); the quarterbacks, because they were quarterbacks; and—this is the best—Los Angeles Rams, because he wanted to get under Rozelle's skin. (Rozelle had started out in the Rams' publicity department and been their general manager.)
In this atmosphere, Rozelle, Lamar Hunt, and Tex Schramm—the influential owner of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys—struck the deal that merged the two leagues behind Davis' back. After the 1966 season, the leagues would stage a championship game between the two leagues' winners and then a common draft; inter-league exhibition games would commence before the 1967 season; and the total merger would occur before the 1970 season. Rozelle would be commissioner of the two leagues immediately. An aide had to tell Davis what had happened mere hours before the merger was announced. His response: "Do you remember Yalta?"
The Big Game
The Super Bowl is super because, for four seasons, it featured not the two champions of artificial conferences within one organization but the best teams in two distinct leagues that truly hated each other. Vince Lombardi's Packers handily beat Hunt's Chiefs and Davis' Raiders in the first two big games, confirming the public's sense of the NFL's superiority. But in Super Bowl III, the Jets, 19-point underdogs against a Colts team that some declared to be the best ever—and with Namath, famously, "guaranteeing" victory—stunned the world with a 16-7 win. MacCambridge reports that Rosenbloom, the Colts' owner, was inconsolable afterward, even as Rozelle tried anyway. "Don't worry," he said, "this may be the best thing that ever happened to the game."
Today's NFL teams are unafraid to throw the deep ball and let their quarterbacks escape the pocket, as Gillman and other AFL coaches devised for their offenses. On defense, Steelers safety Troy Polamalu and Packers cornerback Charles Woodson at times freelance outside the system, in ways that would make Al Davis proud, if only they weren't doing it on teams that aren't the Raiders. And at least as many stories will have been written about Roethlisberger's off-the-field troubles and Rodgers' humility as about their passing prowess, because, thanks to Werblin and Namath, quarterbacks today are stars like any other stars. And it's all happening at the Super Bowl, the biggest and loudest spectacle in the world. The AFL didn't disappear. It assimilated.

RICHMOND, Va. (March 19, 2013) – After taking both games of its series at Richmond, Rutgers baseball will remain in the area and take on Virginia Commonwealth in a two-game midweek series, beginning Tuesday at The Diamond. The Scarlet Knights are currently 5-3 in the state of Virginia this season.
Rutgers (5-9) is the midst of 23 straight true road games to start the season, the most of any Division I team in the nation. The Scarlet Knights are also in a stretch of 10-of-13 games in Virginia.
Game 15: Tuesday, March 19
First Pitch: 6 p.m.
Rutgers Starter: RHP Charlie Law (0-2, 9.50)
VCU Starter: LHP Michael Thomas (0-0, 3.38)
Webcast: Ram Radio
Live Stats: StatBroadcast
Game 16: Wednesday, March 20
First Pitch: 6 p.m.
Rutgers Starter: RHP Slater McCue (0-0, 8.10)
VCU Starter: TBA
Webcast: Ram Radio
Live Stats: StatBroadcast
The last five games RU has played have come down to the wire, with all being decided in the last at bat (3-2). Most recently, the Scarlet Knights took a pair of one-run games against Richmond by hitting a late go-ahead home run. Junior Nick Favatella (Washington Township, N.J.) connected for an opposite field shot in the opener, giving Rutgers a 5-4 win. Then the next day, three players hit their first Rutgers home run, with freshman Corey Lerche (West Nyack, N.Y.) sending out a solo long ball in the top of the 10th inning for his first career hit and the game-winning run. Senior left-hander Rob Corsi (Oceanport, N.J.) had his best series out of the bullpen this year by picking up a save and a win versus the Spiders.
On the mound, senior Charlie Law (Mainland, N.J.) will make the first start against the Rams after his outing was postponed due to weather versus Richmond. He struck out 12 in his last performance at William & Mary in seven complete innings. Junior Slater McCue (Radnor, Pa.) will make his first start of the season after beginning four midweek games last season.
VCU (11-5) got off to a hot start, winning its first nine games of the season. Most recently, the Rams lost two-of-three to Monmouth at home to fall to 6-2 at The Diamond. Bill Cullen leads the offense with a .370 batting average and three home runs, while Vimael Machin has knocked in a team-high 15 runs. Closer Matt Lees highlights the pitching staff, picking up six saves and not allowing a run in 16.1 relief innings this season. The Rams are in their inaugural season in the Atlantic 10.
VCU plays at The Diamond, which also plays hosts to the Richmond Flying Squirrels – the Double-A minor league affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. The venue opened in 1985.
Head coach Shawn Stiffler is in his first season at the helm of the program after serving six years as the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator previously.
Rutgers leads the all-time series, 7-6, with the last meeting coming in 1996.
Rutgers ends its trip by traveling to Louisville to take on nationally-ranked Cardinals in its BIG EAST-opener. The series will begin Friday.

@Max: I did not know that this cool gadget did not make enough noise (news) yet in US. Last year, I was part of the organizing committee for organizing an annual tech day for the embedded engineers in our org. While we were scratching our head to decide on what should be a cool memento idea for the paper presenters, somebody came-up with the idea of Power bank as the gift (there are some Indian companies manufacturing this too). Everybody liked this idea and people who had got this on that day also expressed happiness!! :)
Any idea about the price tags of these devices from Active Semi?

"Tastes fairly straightforward now, with frest, vigorous blackberry, blueberry, cherry, anise and mocha flavors that have a minerally bite.

Diamond Creek, California's first "Cabernet only" estate vineyard, was established in 1968. Visionary pioneer, Al Brounstein, defied modern convetion and planted Bordeaux varietals on secluded Diamond Mountain. The three distinct soil types on theis 20-acre property produce different single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons. Light ash soild of Volcanic Hill is in sharp contrast to the iron-rich Red Rock Terrace and the pebbly Gravelly Meadow. Each year, the estate produces a small amount of long-lived wines that are revered by connoisseurs the world over.
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right.

5 Year-End Trades From the Tech Sector
BALTIMORE ( Stockpickr) -- Stocks look ready to rebound a bit from Monday's dip today, as the final trading week of the year draws nearer to an end.
>>5 Huge Trades for a Volatile 2013
This week is also historically the quietest trading week of the year, a fact that may not hold true for 2012 as the fiscal cliff continues to grab the headlines and the calendar counts down to 2013. With negotiations resuming tomorrow to figure out a solution to the combined tax hike and spending cut, it still looks likely that this thing will get resolved before Auld Lang Syne starts playing. Hopefully the politicians involved got enough coal in their stockings yesterday to spur things along.
With all of that in mind, most investors are looking away from the markets this week. But even though we're in a quiet week for stocks, that doesn't mean that there aren't still some big trading opportunities to take advantage of.That's why we're taking a technical look at the five setups that have the tradable price setups right now. >>5 Stocks Warren Buffett Loves For the unfamiliar, technical analysis is a way for investors to quantify qualitative factors, such as investor psychology, based on a stock's price action and trends. Once the domain of cloistered trading teams on Wall Street, technicals can help top traders make consistently profitable trades and can aid fundamental investors in better planning their stock execution. So, without further ado, let's take a look at five technical setups from the technology sector worth trading now.

both ocho & TO are overrated. they might score a td or two but look for the Birds to win by at least 7. Gotta love playing at home plus they're pissed after last weeks slap in the face by Philly. I am a little concerned with Spoon & Dunta out though. May cause a problem.

Chad Johnson is washed up. With his mouth always open the wind drag has slowed him down.
T.O. is also washed up.
They're both self promoters who are always tooting their own horn.

Seems to me playing against the Falcons' shoddy defense will only delude Johnson and Owens into thinking they still got it.
Our Falcons 4 and 2 record is a shanked field goal and a Roddy White's strip away from being a 2 and 4 record – and 2 and 4 is a helluva lot more indicative of the quality of this team, if you ask me.
We are not a very good. Matt Ryan is beginning to look more and more like JaMarcus Russell without all of mama's home cooking. Heck, my wife can pick out a new pair of shoes in less time than it takes Matty Nice to find an open receiver not named Tony Gonzalez. Sam Baker plays left tackle like he's practicing to be a bull fighter. This team is depressing. And we got the ugliest uni's in the league this side of the Tennessee Titans. At least the Titans can play the game.
Andy Reid's comments last week proved to be nothing more than smoke-blowing. He knows what's up with the Birds We got no downfield passing game; Michael Turner is the "Burner" only in brief spurts; our offense scares absolutely nobody and our special teams are middling at best.
Bring back Samuel L. Jackson for another commercial. He owes us a freaking apology.

I understand Dled created this blog so falcon fans can throw shots at T.O and OCHO.Nobody plays in this league who is so called washed up,this is the nfl.While you all are taking shots,just keep in mind those two washed up players are going up against owens 5′9 and grimes 5′10.When they get scorched i want Dled to create another blog on why the falcons will not spend money$$$ on real CBs.

John is one of the ever pessimistic fans. The Birds could win the Super Bowl and he would find things to complain about. We've all known guys like this and you find yourself distancing yourself from them.

Too bad you didn't wish this curse on me last week. I would have been spared the pathetic spectacle of the Eagles game. And if my TV had blown up (rather that suffering my bottle of Miller Genuine Draft being tossed through the screen) I could file an insurance claim for the loss.
More power to you though. A true believer – and a paying customer, too.

People, as usual, are letting their personal likes and dislikes get in the way of determining how good a player is. Neither TO nor 85 are washed up. Carson Palmer, on the other hand, is — and this is why that offense has been inconsistent despite all its firepower.

My Aunt can hold a block better than Sam Baker. Grimes got hella heart but too small. Jenkins can't get open. Norwood is soft as fly paper. These birds just can't soar. Philly pulled the cover off.

October 25th, 2010

I think Roddy White has become a much improved player. White is now a pro bowl player. White still makes stupid mistakes at times, but he has minimized them and has become a solid receiver. Because of Whites alerts play in the SF game, the Falcons stole that game and are 5-2 in first by themselves, instead of 4-3. Whats great about the Falcons 5-2 record is that THEY HAVE STILL NOT PLAYED A COMPLETE FOUR QUARTERS OF FOOTBALL YET. If the Falcons had done that they would have been sitting at 7-0. The Falcons are capable of being an elite team. They must have consistent play throughout four quarters of football to be considered that. They are close but there is still room for improvement. Mid season grade: B+

Norma - Further information
Vincenzo Bellini
Felice Romani
World Première on 26th December 1831, Teatro alla Scala, Mailand
Few sopranos in the history of opera have dared to tackle the challenges of the title role in Bellini's Norma. The extraordinary vocal and dramatic virtuosity required of each interpreter since the world première on 26th December 1831 at La Scala, Milan, has always been indisputable. The role is feared and respected as a supreme challenge for the greatest artists of last 125 years. All the more reason to rejoice, therefore, that today's belcanto "Prima Donna Assoluta", Edita Gruberova, will now tackle the role on the stage for the first time in her glorious career and do so at the Bavarian State Opera.
Bellini decided to adapt the contemporary French drama by Alexandre Sounet for this work only six months after Sounets play was premièred. As in the play, the drama of Norma takes place against the background of the Roman conquest of Gaul creating at once an ancient as well as an almost mystical atmosphere. The Druid High Priests and warriors of Gaul wait for an opportune moment to counter-attack their country's occupiers and rely for support on the magic and spiritual power of their Druid religion. However the political confrontation is but a backdrop for the personal conflict of Norma herself who is not only the high priestess of the Druids but has also been the secret, and now neglected, lover of the Roman Pro-Consul Pollione.
The title role of Norma requires not only a stunning coloratura technique but also vivid declamation and extreme histrionic talent. Vincenzo Bellini's melodic intensity always present in his work, is nowhere more impressively displayed as in the famous aria "Casta Diva ch'e in argente". It is through such impressive examples of vocal drama that Normas inner conflict so deeply affects us. When Norma discovers that Pollione, the father of her two children, has fallen in love with the young druid novice Adalgisa and is even planning to return to Rome with her, Norma's world collapses. Blind with rage she calls for total war at any cost and for the imprisoned Pollione to be sacrificed. Finally, however, she must take personal
responsibility for her share of the intrigue and, herself, goes to the stake to be burnt alive with her lover.
When one takes into account the emotional intensity and dramatic nature of this work it seems to us today incredible that, at the world première, the public re-
mained unmoved. The composer, however, was himself absolutely convinced that
Norma was his masterwork and since its first outing the work has become increasingly admired by the public. After a very long absence this great work returns to the repertory of the Bavarian State Opera in a new production directed and designed by Jürgen Rose. The première of this new production of the most important work of the belcanto will take place on 21st January 2006.

Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA) said the Supreme Court's "frightening" ruling that upheld the Affordable Care as a tax is a "blow to our freedoms." "What's next?" Jindal asked, according to The Hill. He voiced concern for people who "refuse to eat tofu" or "refuse to drive a Chevy Volt" — even though the court ruled the individual mandate to buy health insurance was not constitutional under the Commerce Clause. Jindal said he expects opposition to the law to "escalate" before the presidential election and that Republican governors will not implement the law before November.

Tommy Armstrong Jr. threw a left-handed, 5-yard shovel pass to Ameer Abdullah for the go-ahead touchdown with 2:03 left and Nebraska's defense made enough stops to seal a 17-13 win over Michigan at Ann Arbor on Saturday.
The Huskers (7-2, 4-1 Big Ten) kept their chances alive of returning to the conference championship game. Nebraska can move a big step closer to its goal by beating Legends Division-leading Michigan State next Saturday in Lincoln.
The Wolverines (6-3, 2-3) dashed hopes of earning a Big Ten title for the first time since 2004 with their first loss in 20 home games under coach Brady Hoke, turning the ball over on downs during their last possession.
Michigan went ahead 13-10 on Brendan Gibbons' 40-yard field goal with 8:08 left after Jordan Westerkamp muffed a punt, then its defense allowed the Huskers to convert on a fourth down during a 75-yard, game-winning drive.

Transatlantic Exchanges, Brokers Put Their Money on European Options Growth
December 17, 2007
Several newly transatlantic exchanges have big plans in 2008 to more closely link their options markets, betting in part that Europeans will become as enamored of options contracts as their retail investor counterparts across the pond, who have driven that U.S. market's growth.
"We feel there's huge potential for development of the equity derivatives market in Europe, particularly by bringing current over-the-counter activity to the exchange and developing the flow coming from buy-side and retail investors," said Philippe Hajali, director of equity derivatives at Euronext.liffe, an NYSE Euronext subsidiary that comprises derivatives markets in Amsterdam, Brussels, London, Lisbon and Paris. "We think there is the potential to double or triple equity derivative volumes in Europe."
Of the recent cross-Atlantic merger activity, NYSE Euronext, the combination of NYSE Group and Euronext that was finalized in April, is furthest ahead in its integration efforts, and its goals extend well beyond options. Deutsche Borse more specifically targeted the options market in its agreement in May to purchase the International Securities Exchange (ISE) and connect it with its Eurex derivatives exchange.
Nasdaq too is on the cross-border options radar screen, with a complex deal to acquire OMX that involves obtaining Borse Dubai's shares of the Nordic exchange operator. Borse Dubai's bid had not been approved at press time, and Nasdaq declined to discuss exchange-integration plans.
NYSE Euronext is already seeking to accommodate large member firms by collocating their servers in the same facility as the Euronext.liffe trading engine to reduce data latency, a necessity for algorithmic trading. "We're going to provide 100 megabit pipes and people can be collocated in the same room as the Liffe trading engine to speed up trading." Hajali said. "So far, we have received over 80 applications for these new connectivity solutions, and over 20 of these applications are for collocation, which will go live early in 2008."
The exchange expects significant growth in 2008 stemming from algorithmic trading, especially from U.S. investors, said Hajali, adding that large "hedge funds and the big Chicago-based algo trading companies" are actively trading Euronext.liffe-listed contracts.
Ultimately, however, the goal is to reach beyond the biggest players, and there is already, substantial interest among European investors in the U.S. options market. Bruce Goldberg, chief marketing officer of ISE, said that 15 percent or more of U.S. options volume originates in Europe, executed via Wall Street trading desks or electronic accounts provided by mostly U.S. brokerages such as Greenwich, Conn.-based Interactive Brokers and, more recently, Chicago's optionsXpress.
Deutsche Borse's Big Bet
"A merger between ISE and Eurex will create an improved distribution system, to make various products on one exchange available to the other's clients," Goldberg said.
ISE, which typically ranks first or second in trading volume among the six U.S. options exchanges, may prove to be an enticing draw. Douglas Atkin, CEO of Majestic Research in New York, called that acquisition the "biggest bet" on growth in European options trading. "ISE had huge market share in the U.S. and that provides the ability to move share overseas," Atkin said.

Jenna Goes To Pemberley
The all star casting announcements for the adaptation of the PD James classic Death Comes To Pemberley get even better this week as the BBC add more well known names to the production with a few familiar faces from the world of Doctor Who.
The adaptation, by Juliette Towhidi, is described by the BBC as a:
Remarkably inventive homage to Austen [and] brings her much-loved world to life in an original and suspenseful way.
Following the announcements of the starring roles as Anna Maxwell Martin – who you'll recognise from 2005′s The Long Game (playing Elizabeth), Matthew Rhys (playing Darcy) and Matthew Goode (playing Wickham), there has also been confirmation of none other than our own Jenna-Louise Coleman (playing Lydia Wickham).
Meanwhile, James Norton, from 2013's Cold War, is also case as Mr Alveston. There will also be several other appearances by well known BBC talent including James Fleet (The Vicar Of Dibley) as Mr Bennett, Penelope Keith (To The Manor Born) as Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Doctor Who-hating misery guts Trevor Eve (Waking The Dead) as Sir Selwyn Hardcastle.
The production begins filming this month on location in Yorkshire and is being supported with investment from Screen Yorkshire.
Directed by BAFTA-winning director Daniel Percival (Dirty War) and executive produced for the BBC by Polly Hill, Death Comes To Pemberley is a murder mystery tale set six years after the events of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.
Death Comes To Pemberley will be shown on a BBC channel in the near future.
4 Responses to Jenna Goes To Pemberley
According to the Doctor Who News Page, and confirming some suspicions dating back to the BAFTAs and BBC's coverage of the Peabody Awards presentation, it's not Jenna-Louise Coleman anymore, just Jenna Coleman…
Surprised that she would drop the "-Louise" at this stage of her career.
My God she loold stunning in that picture. Move aside Peri. We have a new champion. Any chance of getting her into a pink spandex top, probably not!

Canyons expert skiing is seemingly endless. As the dominant type of terrain over the resort's expansive 4,000 acres, expert skiing at Canyons is standout. With everything from trees to bowls, to chutes, to steep moguls and fall away groomed runs spread over Canyons nine peaks the most challenging part isn't necessarily the leg-burning skiing, but deciding where to go. With all that world-class expert skiing to be had, and especially if you're taking a short Canyons ski vacation, it's important to have particular priority zones in mind, or you might end up in terrain or on long chairlifts lines you didn't intend for.
All skiers have a preferred style or type of terrain, finding something that meets your expert skiing pursuits is easy at Canyons, but here are some of the best of the best . For those who are a little more daring, Murdock Bowl and Red Pine Bowl should be high on the list. Murdock Bowl is inbounds hike-to terrain from the top of Super Condor Express chairlift, and it's sure to get your heart pumping in more than one way. Murdock is a series of long, wide, steep double black chutes; the further down the ridgeline you traverse the longer and steeper the chutes get. So to get ultra-radical you'll want to head to One Hundred Turns. Red Pine Bowl, off of Ninety-Nine 90 Express chairlift, also features chutes, but they are much narrower and lined with trees. Red Pine Bowl also accesses don't miss double black runs like Lower East Face and the expert glades of Fantasy Ridge. If there's one area that you want to spend a lot of time in, it's probably the terrain off the Ninety-Nine 90 Express chairlift. The Ninety-Nine 90 area is an expert skier's slice of heaven with groomed and sometimes ungroomed cruisers, like Aspen Grove, 94 Turns and Talus Garden, plus all the steep glades on skiers right off the top of the lift. Expert skiers will never want to leave.
To learn more about Canyons expert skiing call, or chat with, one of Ski.com's knowledgeable Mountain Vacation Specialists.

Better Than Our Dreams
What we read about in the description and reviews and saw in pics when choosing to book this property proved to be accurate, although in reality not fully representative of our experience, which turned out to be far better than our expectations. When you first see the panoramic view of the islands and sea from this mountain side, it takes your breath away. And the great thing is that the thrill of that view never diminishes because it is ever changing in some way, and you get a slightly different perspective from the deck, or the living area, the bedroom, and even the shower. The living space is immaculate, nicely furnished, and a very comfortable bed invites restful sleep, etc. Plus there are so many special touches such as fresh flowers, original art, refreshments and treats upon arrival that make this a wonderfully welcoming place. We been to St. John 7 or 8 times now, and have always preferred staying on the Coral Bay end of the island, but this spot on the mountain above Coral Bay was not only the most beautiful and comfortable of the accommodations that we've had, but turned out really to be the most convenient for getting to all the beaches where we wanted to snorkel, and to the nice mix of restaurants that are there. After our first trip up the mountain road led by our host, we soon realized that we made the right choice. Our host and hostess, who are the property owners and were in the upstairs section, surely must be counted among the most gracious, knowledgeable, helpful, and interesting folk that you could ever hope to meet. While careful to always respect our privacy and solitude, they were quick to respond to any of our requests and questions. And when a couple of unexpected medical issues developed for us, it was especially reassuring to have their support and suggestions which salvaged what would otherwise have been frustrating and disappointing intrusions into our days in paradise. All in all, our experience in this special place was better than we could have dreamed it could be, and fond memories of it will fill our actual dreams for many days and night to come.

American captain Justin Abdelkader was given a five-minute major penalty for charging and a game misconduct in the second period of the U.S.-Czech Republic quarterfinal game at the world hockey championship for a late and high hit on forward Vladimir Sobotka.
Abdelkader, who will likely be facing supplemental discipline from the International Ice Hockey Federation, has already served a one-game suspension in the tournament for a knee-to-knee hit on Kazakhstan's Konstantin Pushkaryovbegan.
The Czech Republic defeated the Americans 4-3 to advance to the semifinal stage, where they'll face the winner of the Canada-Finland game.

Dunno about the video, that`s open to debate.
The music though. That is entirely different. Definately of alien origin I would say.
Let`s be honest, no human being could make such a dreadful din as that, surely?

Is sooooo obviously NOT a fossil. Just cause "experts" call it a fossil and it looks exacly like a fossil you shouldn't be fooled. How could it be anything but an alien hyperdrive? Anybody who knows anything about aliens knows exactly what an alien hyperdrive looks like. This kind of thing unfortunaly happens all the time. Just last week in fact i was at my local museum and one of the displays looked like a wolly mammoth and i thought to myself " how could all these people be fooled by this?" " That's not an animal! its soooo the front end of S593 interdimentional omnicruiser L Class starsurfer"* They hide this stuff right out in the open like that and the sheep just eat it up. * ( rough translation from bloraxian to english )

Usually I don't review manga, but I happen to be a great fan of the orginal books. It was certainly not as good as the original book, but not that bad. I liked the Victorian costumes-though many of her day dresses were a little low in the neck. Ball gowns in the 1880s were low in the neck, but any other dresses-day dresses, tea dresses, riding dresses-were not. So that really bugged me, but the rest was really funny. How they drew all the characters was perfect. They were exactly how I pictured them. I look forward to reading more of the manga.

Yeah, we gather that Prince, his purple majesty, likes to crash out in front of the TV on Tuesday nights and watch Zooey Deschanel on New Girl. There is officially nothing left for us to be surprised about.
Unless he were to appear on the sitcom, having pitched his own idea to the producers that they do an episode involving his famous, real-life pajama parties. Which is what is happening.
This is highly irregular.
The episode will air after the Super Bowl on February 2nd.
