Examining IPv6 on today's Internet
Is the world ready for the next generation Internet Protocol? We take a look at Linux with IPv6.
The TCP/ IP protocol, which began as an obscure experiment for a handful of academics and U.S. Department of Defense officials, suddenly became popular in the late 1980s and 1990s with the meteoric rise of the Internet. By the early 1990s, the IP address space – which had seemed quite vast in the early days – was beginning to look all too finite, and the experts began to wonder what would happen if the Internet ever ran out of addresses. Work began on a new version of the Internet Protocol (IP) that would put an end to worries of overcrowding. A plan for the new protocol, which came to be known as "IP Next Generation" (IPng), was adopted by theInternet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in 1994, and the details for the IPv6 protocol were released through a flotilla of documents surrounding the RFC 2460 IPv6 specification.

A stock to soar on the fracking boom
Wall Street has overlooked this refiner and maker of specialty product, which still has room to run.
By Michael Shulman
Every so often a new word enters the popular media -- and profits are made by investors who discover that word before the general media and public do. The word of the day: fracking.
This process is an evolution of traditional hydraulic fracking that uses water and chemicals to crack open underground formations to release natural gas and oil. Savvy investors will want to seek companies that benefit most from a long-term, stable and low-cost supply of high-quality oil and gas. I know of one such company with enormous growth potential.
But first, how does fracking work?
Imagine standing on a layer cake. You are a chocaholic and you can easily see the layers hold chocolate. You also saw your dad making the cake and know he used a lot more than what can be seen in those layers. You also do not care for the vanilla cake that is holding up those layers of chocolate. What do you do? You cheat and stick a straw into those layers and suck all the chocolate out before dad comes home. And to get that chocolate out, you push some water down the straw first to loosen it up.
That cake in the real world is shale, and the chocolate is oil and gas. One of the best shale formations is the Bakken, much of it in North Dakota, producing oil. Another is the Utica Shale, a good deal of it in northern Pennsylvania and producing very high quality natural gas and natural gas liquids (NGL).
A refiner with enormous potential
Wall Street already knows this -- well, at least they can read a map -- but being Wall Street, they are missing the obvious.
I will review my favorite plays in the coming weeks, but let me start with a company that has enormous growth potential, a very high yield and that has already made me a hero to my subscribers.
The company? Calumet Specialty Products (CLMT). Never heard of it? Good. Neither have the geniuses on Wall Street. Better still, those somewhat familiar with the name don't understand the company.
Calumet is a refiner, but its business is not what you think. The company's refineries turn out specialty products -- CLMT dominates the market for aviation lubricants, makes the wax in lipstick and has a diesel-to-gasoline mix that helps insulate profits from movements in gasoline prices. Better still, Calumet refineries are in the Midwest. It bought older refineries for a song and put them back into production and is now building a brand new one in, where else, North Dakota.
The yield is 7.2%; that new refinery is going to boost profits and I assume dividends. Calumet stock is up roughly 50% since I first found it a year ago and still has room to run. Growth, income and a strong business model built on top of 50 or 75 years of oil.
Thank you, Mother Nature.

Recognize Acupuncturists as health care providers! Despite overwhelming evidence of the positive impact acupuncturist have on patient health, they are not recognized as health care providers under the Social Security Act and, therefore, cannot be paid by Medicare for therapy management . The Social Security Act does recognize other health care professionals such as dieticians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurse midwives, and clinical social workers. By changing the compensation structure allowed under Medicare, we can ensure that patients have access to the medical expertise of Acupuncturist. Studies have shown that when an Acupuncturist is directly involved in patient care for pain management and other issues, the patient recovers quicker with less medication required.Click Here Now to sign the petition, Thanks!

The Federal Reserve's bond purchases are contributing to greater inflows into fixed-income funds, while demand for stock funds is near multiyear lows.
Low-volatility strategies look attractive for developed-markets exposure today, says Morningstar's Sam Lee.
There's no shortage of concerns for investors, but a recent reprieve in Europe, decent domestic growth (relatively speaking), double-digit stock gains, and a reviving housing market are worth an ounce of appreciation.
News this week showed market players paying up for media assets, paying out for tax relief, and more.

President 2005-06
Ira Katznelson is Ruggles Professor of Political Science and History at Columbia University, where he received his B.A. in 1966 and first taught after completing his Ph.D. in history from Cambridge University in 1969. Before returning to Columbia in 1994, he was a member of the departments of political science at the University of Chicago (where he was chair) and the New School for Social Research (where he was dean of the graduate faculty).
His scholarship at the boundary of political science and history on the liberal state, inequality, social knowledge, and institutions primarily concerns the United States, but is indebted, and seeks to contribute to, the discipline's other subfields. Professor Katznelson is currently finishing a short book on affirmative action and a long volume on the New Deal. His most recent book is When Affirmative Action was White (2005). Other books include: Desolation and Enlightenment: Political Knowledge after Total War, Totalitarianism, and the Holocaust (2003), Black Men, White Cities (1973), City Trenches (1981), Schooling for All (with Margaret Weir, 1985), Marxism and the City (1992), and Liberalism's Crooked Circle (1996), which won the Michael Harrington and Lionel Trilling Book Awards. He also co-edited Working Class Formation (with Aristide Zolberg, 1986), Paths of Emancipation: Jews, States, and Citizenship (with Pierre Birnbaum, 1995), and Shaped by War and Trade: International Influences on American Political Development (with Martin Shefter, 2002).
He co-chaired, with Helen Milner, the APSA 2000 Program Committee and edited Political Science: The State of the Discipline, Centennial Edition (Norton Publishers, 2002). He has also served as President of the Politics and History Section of APSA, President of the Social Science History Association, and Chair of the Russell Sage Foundation Board of Trustees. He has been a Guggenheim Fellow, and is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Packing Kids Into A Small Space
A room of this size looks like it would hold a twin bed nicely. I could also see fitting in two twin beds. But three twin beds in one small space? That's audacious.
In fact, we love the way this room looks. The close proximity of the beds is a perfect set up for young kids. So the next time you're planning furniture layout in a small space, challenge conventional decorating wisdom and try placing beds closer than you normally would. For more photos of this gorgeously decorated home run over to Munger Interiors.

It's beautiful and from this picture looks like it is for a beach/summer house. I definitely think it could work in that context where kids are not spending anytime in their room other than sleeping-but I think for their home bedroom they need a little space for play/moving around. Really beautiful styling though.
i agree with rebecca@feelyummy . my grandmother said she and her sibblings all slept in the same bed together. all piled up. i like the thinking out of the box...hope the kids can put there own sheets on. my fat momma legs would not be happy between those beds. !
I would have loved to jump across the room from one bed to the next! I love the idea of a sleeping-only room. This would work out perfectly. Three siblings in such close quarters would hopefully get to be really close (emotionally). You could even hold hands in bed.
Looks like my childhood room setup. And, yes, we did do a triple jump of sorts across the room!
This is gorgeous. Love the simple white bedding to keep it from feeling cramped. Totally awesome for kids and sleepovers, but I could also see a couple of girl friends hanging out staying up all night chatting.
I love this!! So inspiring that small ordinary spaces can also be fabulous!
Does anyone know where to buy those shades???
I've been wanting to line up my three kids in twin beds once they are all out of cribs, but was thinking no room in my house would be large enough for that setup until seeing this post. Perhaps it would be possible! I might have to bust out the measuring tape. Would work out for us too since we have a playroom as well and our kids only sleep in their room.
I love this!!!

The Extinction Of Printers, The End Of Paper
Later this week, I'm going to a sporting event. The tickets were bought online. But they're asking that I print out the ticket in order to get into the arena. I just checked my calendar. It's 2014. When will this madness end?
If I had to guess, I'd say that 75% of the things I printed last year were tickets to sporting events and/or shows where a physical copy of the ticket was required. Why were they required? Who knows. We all carry these small devices perfectly capable of displaying an electronic ticket. 1 But some venues are seemingly nostalgic and reluctant to change.
But they'll have to, of course. And so I wonder: how long until there is no more paper in this world?
Yes, I know that paper in some form will always exist.2 But more specifically, I wonder how long it will be until people no longer print out anything? I have to believe it's not as far out as some people may imagine.
Think about how weird it is to print something out in this day and age. Not only do we all have phones that can display any document without the need to waste paper, there are now millions upon millions of tablets even more capable of doing this. And soon, flexible displays.
Are we afraid of forgeries? Wouldn't that be just as easy to do on a printed item — perhaps even easier, in some regard? Do we need receipts? Aren't those a million times better in digital form? Term papers? Email them in.
Passbook, Square, Dropbox, Google Docs, and yes, even Paper 3. It's not an exaggeration to say that the printed document is under assault from thousands of directions — with more coming each day.
Every time I need to print something out, I find myself Googling for the nearest Kinkos. Yes, this is my sole use for Kinkos now. Not to copy paper; to create paper. Because I do not have a printer in my apartment. Because, again, it's 2014.
I know such a future must be utterly terrifying to HP. But again, I think we're basically in the last mile of a printer-less world almost without realizing it. How many kids have a printer these days, I wonder? Less than have a tablet? Undoubtedly.
And when printers go away, paper will become something that exists only for certain purposes. A niche product. A relic. Something for special occasions. Just hopefully not tickets for sporting events.
Often in higher fidelity than the printed variety. ↩
In fact, there's been a recent resurgence in print as almost more of an artform than a functional method for delivering information. ↩

Article Title
On 25 February 1749, Charles Edward Stuart, the Young Pretender, vanished from European public view. Expelled from France by Louis XV to honour the recently negotiated Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle with England, and rebuffed by Pope Benedict XIV for the expense he would cost the Vatican, Charles disappeared from the map, becoming the most speculated-upon celebrity for the next decade. In December 1749, Eliza Haywood was arrested for seditious libel for her involvement in a pamphlet entitled A Letter from H— G—g, Esq; One of the Gentlemen of the Bed-Chamber to the Young Chevalier, ... To a Particular Friend. Not as glamorous as Charles but certainly capable of stirring up as much personal speculation owing to her own mysterious absence of biography, Haywood has recently drawn the attention of many scholars who are determined to affix a Tory—even Jacobite—label to her writings. The conjoining of these two popular icons—the Young Pretender, romantic hero of Culloden, and Eliza Haywood, author of dozens of amatory novels—both considered wayward, threatening, and marginal by their contemporary society, makes for a compelling pair. Through Haywood's pamphlet, the two become interdependent, sharing what the Young Chevalier called "imaginary space," an expression he used to describe the years 1749–52 that he spent incognito, virtually invisible to the European political gaze.

No, I am not looking for getting laid like them. What I am looking for is that attraction, that chemical reaction between 2 people. Once the eyes catch each other, the hearts start beating fast, and we start getting nervous. I don't mind how long the reaction will last, as long as it is beautiful during the process, and as long as it creates beautiful memories for us.

Trooper had halted cycle chase
State police: Pursuit ended before crash that killed two
By Joe Beck -- email@example.com
Virginia State Police released more details Monday of a continuing investigation into a motorcycle crash late Friday that took the lives of two on U.S. 11 in Frederick County.
State police spokesman Corrine Geller said Senior Trooper K.L. Myers, who had begun chasing the motorcycle on I-81, was stopped at the intersection of U.S. 11 and Welltown Road when the motorcycle crashed into a minivan at the next intersection up the road.
Jared R. Toothman, 26, of Capon Bridge, W.Va., and JenaLee C. McGrane, 21, also of Capon Bridge, were thrown from the 2002 Honda CBR600 motorcycle and died at the scene.
Two adults and four children in the minivan were treated for minor injuries, state police said.
Geller said eyewitness reports led investigators to estimate the motorcycle was traveling more than 70 mph when it crashed into the van, ending a chase that lasted one minute and covered two miles.
Geller said the chase began in the northbound lane of I-81 between the 317 and 318 mile markers shortly before 10:30 p.m. She said Myers attempted to stop Toothman for traveling 85 mph in a 70 mph zone, a speed classified at reckless driving under state law.
She said Toothman sped away, took exit 317 and ran three red lights before hitting the minivan, a 2005 Pontiac Montana.
"Our policy is not to run red lights," Geller said in explaining why Myers had stopped his pursuit at the time of the accident.
Geller said a follow up investigation by the State Police Accident Reconstruction Team revealed that Toothman was riding without a valid motorcycle operator's license and that the motorcycle was improperly registered. She said investigators have also concluded that alcohol was a factor in the crash.
State police pursuit policies require dispatchers to inform a supervisor when a chase has begun, but Friday's night pursuit ended before the dispatcher had enough time to dial the supervisor's phone number.
"However, a supervisor was notified upon its conclusion," she said.
No information was available on the number of fatalities so far this year involving pursuits by Virginia State Police. Available agency data shows state police pursuits led to single deaths in four of the previous five years, the lone exception being four deaths recorded in 2008.
In 2011, there were 193 state police pursuits statewide that led to 41 accidents, 19 injuries, a single death and the arrests of 110 drivers, according to agency data.
"Pursuits only occur when and because a motorist makes a conscious decision to break the law by fleeing a law enforcement officer," Geller said.

The drivers who try to be responsible while behind the wheel have one less violater to contend with. I am thankful no inocent people were taken by this habitual offender. I am sure the woman on the cycle with him had to be aware of his behavior. As adults we must learn to avoid dangerous people places or situations.
As adults we also have to be aware of what we are saying. 2 families have lost 2 people who they loved. Instead of being all "high and mighty" take a second and think about how you would feel if this was your son. People make mistakes. Would you want creeps sitting and writing about him? I highly doubt it. Let's think before we speak. And 2 innocent lives were taken way to soon. No matter what anyone says, no one deserves to die like that. 2 innocent lives were taken on Friday night.

I put a lot of thought in before I type a comment. As stated in the other story, I would feel ashamed and embarrassed that my loved ones died during the commission of a crime. They were not innocent, both had criminal records and both were killed while actively engaged in criminal behavior. These people don't get it; they get off time after time in the courts, but the street always wins.
I agree...they made the conscious decision to flee, however think about their families and what posts like this make them feel like. I don't see any "good guys" on here. All I see are bullies who do not have ANYTHING better to do than sit online and comment about people's heartache. As my username says "eat it"
Thanks you Eat it. I don't know the people that died, but it makes me sick that there are people on here that can sit on the soapbox and spout pure ignorance. So terrible. Not everyone makes the right choices in life, they do not deserve to die. These people were not murderers or rapists or child abusers. It IS sad that they died EVEN if it was their own fault. AND it is DISGUSTING for the nasty bullies on here act like they got what they deserved.

Well, this is sooner than expected, but we're looking for a composer. We're beginning designing the Overworld and areas, and though we have a select few composers we're looking at that we could possibly just go inquire and hire, we figure why not first extend it out to anyone who wants to try their hand at piloting the whole sound design. Possibly even someone who has worked on a few titles themselves, or someone who has composed a lot of music but have yet to get pulled on to something big. We're not partial.
The feedback for this game has been big so far, and it's only going to get bigger, based on what we're implementing in this game each day.
Of course, this will be a paying gig contingent on your rates and if we think you'll fit really well with Cryamore's world. We know music is just as important as the game design and art aspects (especially since we're going with an old-school moniker). So we're looking for someone who wants to mold the world with us. There are a few requirements though:
- You have to really LOVE vidya game music. Even if you never played SNES and PSX classics like Secret of Mana, Link to the Past, Alundra, or Brave Fencer Musashi (we won't judge you, we'll just talk about you behind your back if you haven't), then that's completely fine. But if you're really familiar with the music of that nature, then that should be good enough to get by. Though we feel musicians who are passionate about those games will give the proverbial "OOMF" to Cryamore. In short, you should already know who Koji Kondo, Yoko Shimomura, Nobuo Uematsu, and Noriyuki Iwadare is.
- Range of musical styles should be explored on your demo reel or site. Usually a game of this nature ranges from "epic" to "whimsical" to "badass". If you can pull all of them off well, then you could be a fit.
- Be yourself! Though we know exactly what we want in Cryamore, we encourage you to be yourself when writing your music. We'll know you're capable of the job once we bring you onboard, so don't worry yourself or get nervous.
Good luck!

Earlier this year, my colleague shared an issue paper that provides background on and objectives of The European Commission's (the Commission's) new strategic approach on Strengthening the Role of the Private Sector in Achieving Inclusive and Sustainable Growth in Developing Countries. The Commission believes that a new approach to private sector engagement is needed to meet current development agendas because partnerships between the private and public sectors can have a greater collective impact in developing countries than each sector working separately can. This could be beneficial to the cotton industry.
The European Union (EU) is the largest donor of development aid worldwide. In 2010, the EU provided €53.8 billion – more than 50 percent of global aid. The Commission is the second largest donor globally, managing €11 billion of aid per year. As such a large donor of development aid worldwide, the EU is invested in ensuring that the funds are as effective as possible in this changing world.
The Commission aims to support the EU's Agenda for Change, which focuses on new ways of engaging private sector partners through a blending of funds (e.g. loans and grants) to achieve sustainable growth in two priority areas:
- Human rights, democracy, and other key elements of good governance
- Inclusive and sustainable growth for human development
The Commission proposed that its private partnership strategy will focus on the following top priorities:
- Business environment reforms: enhance effectiveness by improving the quality and prioritization of reforms that target regional and business needs.
- Employment impact and poverty focus of private sector development support: promote crosscutting issues such as women entrepreneurship, youth employment, and decent work.
- Support for micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs): support the creation of business opportunities and markets for local MSMEs.
- Vocational training and capacity development: provide a greater voice to employers when developing occupational standards and training programs.
- Access to finance: strengthen the capacity of international intermediaries and support regulatory framework reform and the development of financial infrastructure.
- Private sector partnership: engage in public-private partnerships and explore innovative financial instruments.
- Private sector as the "delivery channel" for development: consider the private sector's ability to provide services that have traditionally come from the public sector.
- Private sector contribution to inclusive growth: provide economic opportunities to the poor that allow for sustainable livelihoods.
- Transformation towards a green economy: the private sector – a critical actor in the advancement of economic development, job creation, and poverty alleviation – should be guided by an appropriate framework.
10. The role and responsibility of the private sector in a post-2015 framework: an active economic strategy to reach these objectives including providing incentives for public-private sector to contribute to sustainable and inclusive growth.
I am encouraged that the Commission recognizes the importance of the private sector in achieving its development goals, and I largely agree with their priorities. With this said, I would encourage the Commission to consider the following realities to allow for wider support across the private sector.
If government wants to shift the bell curve in Figure 1, they must ensure that its "pushing power" is scalable and effective. Regulations must also demand better performance over time. Government regulations often have more effect than voluntary standards ("pulling power") on businesses' investments and activities. An example of this is the impact that the US conflict minerals legislation has had on spurring companies and supply chain actors to act quickly – and largely consistently – across entire industries.
The importance of good governance in developing countries is understated by the Commission. Good governance is an essential foundation for any successful program or system. No private or public entity should be expected to invest in a poorly governed state. Governments are in a better position and have a responsibility to promote good governance in developing countries. The Commission should emphasize the importance of good governance and take action to address it.
I support the Commission's focus on MSMEs, an essential segment of the supply chain. The Commission must also recognize that MSMEs often have limited resources and resiliency, which means that they might possibly present the greatest opportunity for improvement if they are introduced and integrated into a global market. The Commission's plan to create a platform to connect EU buyers with MSME suppliers is a good approach to facilitate these connections.
Governments should also play a role in providing safety nets for, and building the resiliency of, the most vulnerable members of society such as MSMEs and the poor. Ideally the governments of developing countries would provide this, but governments in consumer markets may also have to contribute to such needs.
Businesses can provide demand, know-how, and needed innovation. They can influence policy and help align suppliers towards such common goals as sustainable and inclusive growth. They can be more flexible, responding to changing conditions more quickly than governments can. This greater flexibility can provide a deeper level of resiliency to changing realities and markets.
However, many retailers or end buyers do not typically make capital and long-term investments, especially in indirect supply chains. They can commit to being a guaranteed buyer, providing value to the supplier (e.g. predictable and consistent income). This may be an area where the Commission's desired financial "blending mechanisms" can be effective. For example, if a fledgling company needs capital, a business can commit to purchasing a product that could provide assurances to lenders and other investors, who in turn would be more likely to provide the capital. Such a "blended" solution involving several mutually dependent parties is possible these days as longer-term partnerships are replacing transactional buyer-seller relationships.
Lastly, I believe the Commission should clearly identify what their measure of success will be, make sure that benefits are reaching the most vulnerable, and do their utmost to target investments that will become financially self-sustaining over time.
I hope the Commission's efforts to align with and foster collaboration among private and public sectors to build a sustainable and inclusive economy are successful. It could benefit all members of the cotton industry.

"Oh yes, it will," I said. "Try it."
He started it right up and we drove away.

Great camp!
My already talented daughter came back swimming with a whole new fire. Reminded her how much she loves to swim and compete.
I loved it!
I loved the camp even though I was very hesitant in the beginning because I was going on my own, couldn't find a friend to join since I came all the way from Lebanon. But I loved it anyways, and will come again if I have the chance.

Highlight of the summer!
My experience at camp was amazing, it helped me see things I had never noiticed before. Like my stream line, Coach Wilson told me it wasnt very tight and I have been working to fix it since. Also I do butterfly and I felt it was good but the coaches noticed that I would burn a lot of energy and it was kind of jerky without much flow. So they recommended that I start a breathing to the side method and told me to rotate more. In no time at all my fly went from good to really great. Thanks Nike Swim Camp.
Best camp!
My daughter didn't know anyone at camp. She was nervous about making friends. They started off with a community building activity and the rest of the time was the same. She made many new friends and learned some great swim techniques as well! The social piece is essential in creating a safe learning environment.
Improve your stoke technique.
My daughter seemed to get good instruction and did get 2 state cuts in the meet right after swim camp. One in a stroke we did not expect her to get.
Thank you!
I LOVED CAMP! I will definitely go back next year to learn the material more thoroughly and become an even better swimmer that I have already become. Not only did I love the swimming but I also loved the activities we did after meals. The camp provided me the opportunity to make some great friends and truly was a wonderful experience. Thank you Nike Swim Camps!
Great camp!
It was great because it was stroke technique and fun at the same time. I felt liked I improved, and my times proved to have improved!


text: Hi, I recently had a septoplasty, turbinectomy and rhinoplasty one month ago. This was because I couldn't breath at night. I'm doing the nasal irrigation flushes everyday as recommended. After the surgery until now which is 3 weeks post op, I find that I sneeze a few times a day which never used to happen. I have moderate eye bags though my eyes do not water. My nose feels sensitive at times. Apparently the whole two turbinates were resected. I'm not allergic to anything. What's going on?

Book Description:
This important book delivers a critical wake-up call: a fierce global race for innovation advantage is under way, and while other nations are making support for technology and innovation a central tenet of their economic strategies and policies, America lacks a robust innovation policy. What does this portend? Robert Atkinson and Stephen Ezell, widely respected economic thinkers, report on profound new forces that are shaping the global economy—forces that favor nations with innovation-based economies and innovation policies. Unless the United States enacts public policies to reflect this reality, Americans face the relatively lower standards of living associated with a noncompetitive national economy.The authors explore how a weak innovation economy not only contributed to the Great Recession but is delaying America's recovery from it and how innovation in the United States compares with that in other developed and developing nations. Atkinson and Ezell then lay out a detailed, pragmatic road map for America to regain its global innovation advantage by 2020, as well as maximize the global supply of innovation and promote sustainable globalization.

Found August 28, 2013 on Kukla's Korner:
PLAYERS: Milan Lucic
TEAMS: Boston Bruins
TEAMS: Boston Bruins
from Mark Masters of TSN, Inside the Boston Bruins locker room, it's not uncommon to hear winger Milan Lucic referred to as "Bob." As in Bob McKenzie. Apparently the NHL power forward and NHL on TSN Hockey Insider have a lot in common. "Oh yeah, yeah, it's something that's very well known in our room," said a smiling Brad Marchand, who, like Lucic, was invited to this week's Hockey Canada orientation camp. Lucic has earned the comparison for a number of reasons. For one, he seems to have a scouting report on every player in the league filed away in his brain. Also, he is knowledgeable about the history of the game. But, mostly, he can recite statistics on command. "I think [Bruins coach] Claude [Julien] may even throw some statistics out, which Looch corrects him on," said Marchand. "He knows everything and you just don't want to argue with him when he speaks." continued

If there's one thing the New York Knicks don't like doing, it's losing and that has been happening a lot thanks to distractions surrounding the team. The main and primary distraction has been J.R. Smith and his antics, but we were reminded on Friday night how good J.R. Smith can be when he actually wants to play the game right.
Smith was on the giving end of a sick alley-oop he dished to Jeremy Tyler against the Bobcats.
Smith has been more known this season for who's shoes he's untied rather than who he's made look silly on the court. We saw vintage J.R. Smith on Friday night and it's both wonderful to see and painful to realize all the potential he's wasting.

The use of capital ratios to trigger intervention in problem banks: too little, too late
AbstractA wave of depository institution failures and dramatic losses to deposit insurance funds occurred in the 1980s and continued into the 1990s. In response, the Congress passed a series of bank regulatory acts intended to address the problems that led to the crisis and prevent its recurrence. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (FDICIA) was the capstone of this transformation of banking legislation, with two key provisions designed to reduce the cost of troubled banks to the deposit insurance fund: early closure of failing institutions, and early supervisory intervention in problem banks, referred to as prompt corrective action.> This article considers whether the capital ratio thresholds that trigger prompt corrective action intervention provide sufficient lead time for successful intervention at troubled banks. The study finds that because prompt corrective action is based on a lagging indicator of a bank's financial health, it is likely to trigger intervention in problem banks only after they have been identified by examiners, who rely on far more information that the capital ratio. The authors propose two simple measures to improve the current triggers for prompt corrective action.

Bye, baby bunting,
Father's gone a-hunting,
Mother's gone a-milking,
Sister's gone a-silking,
And brother's gone to buy a skin
To wrap the baby bunting in.
Tom, Tom, the piper's son,
Stole a pig, and away he run,
The pig was eat,
And Tom was beat,
And Tom ran crying down the street.
In a cottage in Fife
Lived a man and his wife
Who, believe me, were comical folk;
For, to people's surprise,
They both saw with their eyes,
And their tongues moved whenever they spoke!
When they were asleep,
I'm told, that to keep
Their eyes open they could not contrive;
They both walked on their feet,
And 'twas thought what they eat
Helped, with drinking, to keep them alive!
Cocks crow in the morn
To tell us to rise,
And he who lies late
Will never be wise;
For early to bed
And early to rise,
Is the way to be healthy
And wealthy and wise.
As Tommy Snooks and Bessy Brooks
Were walking out one Sunday,
Says Tommy Snooks to Bessy Brooks,
"Wilt marry me on Monday?"
There was an old woman had three sons,
Jerry and James and John,
Jerry was hanged, James was drowned,
John was lost and never was found;
And there was an end of her three sons,
Jerry and James and John!
"Robert Barnes, my fellow fine,
Can you shoe this horse of mine?"
"Yes, good sir, that I can,
As well as any other man;
There's a nail, and there's a prod,
Now, good sir, your horse is shod."
The two gray kits,
And the gray kits' mother,
All went over
The bridge together.
The bridge broke down,
They all fell in;
"May the rats go with you,"
Says Tom Bolin.
One, two,
Buckle my shoe;
Three, four,
Knock at the door;
Five, six,
Pick up sticks;
Seven, eight,
Lay them straight;
Nine, ten,
A good, fat hen;
Eleven, twelve,
Dig and delve;
Thirteen, fourteen,
Maids a-courting;
Fifteen, sixteen,
Maids in the kitchen;
Seventeen, eighteen,
Maids a-waiting;
Nineteen, twenty,
My plate's empty.
My dame has lost her shoe,
My master's lost his fiddle-stick
And knows not what to do.

Shocker! Spring training is under way for Major League Baseball's 2014 season and the spotlight is on the New York Yankees.
Love 'em or hate 'em, the Yankees are the most famous sports team in North America and it's news when they as much as burp.
Well, they burped big time over the winter, committing $500 million to an array of free agents, including 25-year-old Masahiro Tanaka, this year's Japanese pitching star.
After Texas signed Yu Darvish to a gazillion-dollar deal two years ago and then watched him post a 29-18 record with a 3.34 earned-run-average in his first two seasons, major league teams with big bankrolls lined up to get a shot at Darvish II — Tanaka, who posted a clownish 24-0 record and 1.27 ERA for Rakuten of the Japanese league in 2013.
The Yankees shelled out $155 million for Tanaka's services for the next seven years. And that was after paying a $20 million 'posting fee' for the right to offer him a contract.
When Tanaka showed up at the Yankees' spring headquarters in Tampa, the media horde was as large as a Rob Ford-Justin Bieber drinkoff might have attracted. The Japanese media were out in full force to record their countryman's every move.
"Honestly, when I stepped out on the field today, I was very, very surprised as to how many media were out there," Tanaka told MLB.com through his interpreter, whom the Yankees have hired for $85,000 to help with their ace's communication.
He better get used to it. If Tanaka starts out 7-0 this season, the media horde will be mob-like. If he starts out 0-7, it could be even bigger. His first spring start was pretty good: two scoreless innings.
Meanwhile, the Yankees did more in the off-season than just sign Tanaka. Their payroll mushroomed with the signing of big-name free agents Brian McCann from Atlanta, Carlos Beltran from St. Louis and Jacoby Ellsbury from Boston.
New York will be without the suspended Alex Rodriguez, and shortstop Derek Jeter, playing his final season, is well past his 'best-before' date, but the Yankees have more than enough firepower to dominate in the American League, meaning the world will continue to rotate on its axis.
In Brief:
• RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: "Rumour has it Tim Tebow has been trying to become a ventriloquist. Unfortunately, whenever he throws his voice it goes way over everyone's head."
• Jack Finarelli, from SportsCurmudgeon.com: "Barry Bonds is with the SF Giants in spring training as a hitting instructor/advisor. We can logically expect that Giants' players to be well schooled in obstructing justice by the end of March."
• Brad Dickson of the Omaha World-Herald: "MLB's Playing Rules Committee voted to ban home-plate collisions, starting in 2014. At the current rate, by 2022, players will be hitting the ball off a tee and everyone will win a trophy."
• RJ Currie again: "A bit of a mix-up at TSN is being blamed on a typo. So far nobody can convince Rod Black that Ottawa's CFL team isn't named after him."
• One more from Currie: "I just awoke from the mother of all psychedelic nightmares. Don Cherry was wearing Norwegian curling pants."
• Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: "Campus police in Williamsburg, Va., arrested former football walk-on Samuel Marshall on 18 drug-related charges. Looks like he transferred from William & Mary to Cheech & Chong."
• Spotted on a Chicago billboard, before the U.S.-Canada men's hockey semifinal: "Loser keeps Bieber."
• Janice Hough of leftcoastsportsbabe.com: "The NY Mets' David Wright says 90 wins 'is a good starting point' for this year's team. Quick, check that man for concussions."

Candy Corn Pretzel Hugs.
I have a lot of fun with pretzels and chocolate.
What may be my favorite food combination EVER (except guacamole and chips… obviously), pretzels and chocolate have made quite the appearance on my blog this year.
The possibilities are endless! And for Halloween? A little candy corn action. Because I'm tad in love with those sugary little mallowcreme confections.
The second they prematurely hit the shelves in September, I'm on it!
The moment I saw candy corn at the store last month, I picked up a bag of circle pretzels and the rest is history.
The idea of these is rather simple and they come together SO quickly. In fact, can we even call this a recipe? A "non-recipe recipe" if you will. Simply melt a Hershey's Kisses Hug on a pretzel and top with a candy corn. Done. Easy peasy. You could also get a little crazy and top with an M&M, Reese's Pieces, or even a pecan. Perhaps a jelly bean for Easter? I personally LOVE jelly beans and chocolate. But I know… that's weird.
Or try Hershey's Kisses in other varieties like dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or caramel. These would also work wonderfully with the seasonal Pumpkin Spice Hershey's Kisses.
Whichever candy topper you chose and whichever Hershey's Kisses flavor you're using, be sure to have all of your ingredients ready to go when you begin because you'll have to move fairly quickly. Once the hug is melted on the pretzel, press the candy corn immediately on top or else it won't stick. When my candy corns were in place, I put the pretzel hugs in the refrigerator so that the chocolate would set quickly.
Let's face it. I hardly have enough patience to sit through a commercial break, let alone wait for chocolate to harden on its own.
I love these pretzel hugs because I get so many of my favorites all in one. You've got your chocolate & pretzel combo, a beloved candy corn, a salty-sweet snack, a festive little treat, an EASY recipe, and a pretty-freaking-adorable-dessert.
Bonus? They're bite sized. Common, WHO doesn't love a mini dessert?
I plan to make these again for a Halloween party. While I may be known as the lavish baker of the group, I've got a costume to worry about!
Candy Corn Pretzel Hugs
An easy, quick Halloween treat. This recipe makes however many you want. Store pretzel hugs in the refrigerator.
- Circle or square-shaped pretzels
- Hershey 's Kisses Hugs (or any flavor Kiss)
- candy corn
- Preheat oven to 250F degrees.
- Line baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Align pretzels on the sheet. Unwrap Hugs and place one on each pretzel. Stick in the oven until the hug begins to melt down (mine took about 4 minutes; it depends on your oven).
- While the Hugs are melting in the oven, get your candy corn ready because you will have to move quickly once the pretzels are out of the oven.
- Remove pretzel hugs from oven and gently press a candy corn down on each one. The Hug should flatten out when you press the candy corn on it. If it is not flattening out, place the pretzel hugs back in the oven for 30 more seconds.
- Let the pretzel hugs cool completely and let the chocolate set for about 10 minutes in the refrigerator. Enjoy!

Oh maaaahhh goooodness. I love these! When I saw 'em on Pinterest a few months back, I fell in love with the idea and used Sixlets to make little flowers. I NEVER thought to use candy corn–totally genius!! I bet the candy corn tastes so sugary and perfect on top of that sweet, melted chocolate. And candy corn and pretzels just sound awesome on their own I want a big bowl of these!
Since you are so creative Sally, let me ask you. If I want to make some of these to give -for instance to our bird store (they always love my treats via you!!) how would be a good way to present them, to give them? Put them in a halloween type bowl and just give them the bowl? I know, I am so lame!!!!
Hi Sally, great idea! I'll get a nice plate/bowl tomorrow at Target when I do my weekly fun shopping!!! I just wasn't sure about the people (there may be five or so) reaching their hands in to get them. I guess I could do a baggie and put the baggie in a bowl?? That might work. And yes, the candy corns in the baggies are a great idea. Thanks again Sally – and if I don't give this stuff away I would be 500 lbs!!! ha ha
I never would have thought of this on my own, but your recipe gave me the idea to put a square of Cadbury Salty Caramelized Peanut chocolate bar on a square pretzel with a roasted salted peanut on top. Very yummy. I see lots of pretzel recipes in my future thanks to all of your yummy pretzel ideas;)
I made the candy corn pretzel bites with pumpkin spice and candy corn kisses. So good! So I decided to split a golden Oreo, smear the cream around to both sides, put a pumpkin flavored kiss in the middle and bake it. Once it melted, place a candy corn or mellowcreme pumpkin in the middle. Yummy & cute for the season!
I make the M&M version of these tasty treats for my husband's coworkers at least once a month and saw this candy corn version while checking out your new brown butter milky way oatmeal cookies (they look delicious!). I definitely need to get to the store pronto to make this candy corn version and hopefully not get lost in all the candy isles!
Are there any other sweet treats you like to top them with?

My first weekend of (f)unemployment has, by all counts, been a tremendous success. There's been a bare minimum of lazy/HBO GO-TV-binge-watching time, a Saturday night celebrating a wedding on a rooftop with cake and champagne and good friends, two pretty solid workouts, a torturous but necessary afternoon of cleaning out my apartment in preparation for moving, and the most New York/bucket list/blog-worthy activity of all (and the subject of this post): an eating/walking tour of Chinatown/Little Italy.
Months ago, I saw a post on Serious Eats advertising a tour they had collaborated on with a company called Stray Boots. The entire tour was self-guided using an iPhone app, it was ridiculously cheap, and we'd get to stop at some of Serious Eats' favorite places in the neighborhood. So I quickly roped in a couple of friends, bought the tour, and then promptly forgot about it completely.
When I realized I'd had the confirmation email sitting in my inbox for 6 months and the number of free weekends I had left in NYC was rapidly dwindling, I reached out to the same friends to pick a date. After one friend had to bail and we found a replacement, Sara, Mitch, Emily and I set out for our tour.
We had no idea what to expect (other than a lot of delicious food), but the app itself is pretty brilliant. Stray Boots has various themed tours for cities all over the country, and getting access to them is as easy as just downloading the app. Each tour has a set of challenges that lead you to various sites around the neighborhood that is the focus of the tour — each restaurant/site we went to came with a little trivia question to answer or a challenge (a picture to take, etc.). You can skip any challenges you want, and if you have a big enough group, you can split up into teams and compete (you earn points for every challenge/question you complete/answer correctly). Once you complete or skip the challenge, the app also gives you a bunch of fun facts about the site you're visiting. A little dorky, yes, but we got to eat a lot of delicious food and visit some pretty interesting historical sites and yes, even learn a few things along the way.
The highlights of our tour…
Spicy Cumin Lamb Burgers at Xi'An Famous Foods
Learning about the Five Points slums
Pork and Cabbage dumplings from Tasty Dumpling
Egg Custard Tarts from Bread Talk bakery
Beef jerky from Malaysia Beef Jerky
The dark horse of the tour. Seriously. Who would have expected that this dinky little storefront would have ridiculously delicious and fresh-tasting beef jerky? Or that I would ever describe a piece of beef jerky as "delicious and fresh-tasting"?
Learning about the Eldridge Street Synagogue
…and the fact that they host an EGG CREAMS AND EGG ROLLS FESTIVAL every year that I somehow have never heard of or attended in my 27 years as a New Yorker. Travesty.
And finally, a stop at DiPalo's for mozzarella/capicola pinwheels
All in all, a thoroughly successful afternoon. I swear I don't work for the company or anything, but the Stray Boots tour and entire model is seriously cool. It's an easy an unobtrusive way to make sightseeing a little more exciting (rather than being on a giant walking tour that screams I AM A TOURIST!) Being a tourist in your own city is always fun, and I think it would also be fun to do one of the tours in a city I didn't know quite as well. And anything that encourages me to eat dumplings and beef jerky is okay by me.
Now, the only issues are the leftover mozzarella pinwheels calling my name from my fridge and the dumpling craving sparked by only eating ONE dumpling yesterday. Whoops.

Chapter 30 Reviews
vixen is kidnapped (who didn't see that coming??)
"We're here for her!" Pai demanded, pointing at Vixen. She gasped.
"Why me?!" Her eyes were wide with fear. Pai stopped breathing. Those eyes…the most pure shade of blue he had ever seen…he never wanted to look away…
"Ribbon Zakuro Spear!" A lash of purple energy knocked Pai's fan to the ground. Kisshu took the opportunity to draw his swords out and charge Zakuro, bulldozing her through a wall and into the next room. In the dust, Pai saw his chance. He darted forward and bit Vixen on the neck, releasing a venom through his fangs that would sedate her. Her cerulean eyes instantly closed and she stopped struggling, allowing him to pick her up bridal style and teleport.
He did not have to wait long before Kisshu reunited with him. Vixen was already placed on a table in their dimension, fast asleep. The bite mark left by Pai had started bruising slightly against her flawless, powdery ivory skin. Kisshu noticed this and raised an eyebrow, smirking slightly.
"So I'm no longer the only one."
"What do you mean by that?" Pai snapped.
"You could have done without poisoning her. You're much larger and stronger than she is. And you could have taken care of her there." Pai glared at him.
"It made my job easier to bring her here. That is all."
"Heh, whatever. Say what you will but I know what I know. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a koneko-chan to chase!" And he dissipated.
"Kisshu! That moron! He doesn't know anything!" But as he thought it, Pai felt a dread seeping through his heart and soul at the thought of extinguishing her life. She was a remarkably beautiful human, but still a human! He couldn't keep her. He wasn't submissive to his emotions like Kisshu. Even Taruto had gone soft, allowing Pudding to live on several occasions.
Vixen started to move. First, a finger twitched. Then a reverberating of her throat as she vocally regained consciousness. He peered closer. Her eyelids flickered, but remained closed. His breath caught in his chest, and his heart raced at the thought of gazing into her cerulean pools once more. Onegai…onegai! Open your eyes!
Finally she slowly opened them. Pai watched her pupils dilate to take in light, then shrink to focus on his face. She sat up, not saying anything, and not taking her sapphires off of him.
"Where am I?" she asked him quietly.
"With me, in my dimension."
"Who are you?"
"Oh. I'm Vixen." They had this strange conversation in an unusual manner for the circumstances. She was very calm. By her demeanor it seemed very obvious to him that she was a very logical person. She analyzed what was going on and asked questions tactfully. So much like him. This girl did not lose her head over nothing, unlike the other Mews, especially that godforsaken Ichigo Kisshu valued so damn much.
She brought her knees up to her chin and wrapped her arms around her legs, shivering slightly. Pai realized that she was still wearing her revealing nightwear. Pai turned and retrieved a blanket for her, and draped it over her and took a seat next to her on the table.
"Weren't you going to destroy me?" she asked, her eyes never leaving him.
"I'm still going to." He was caught off-guard, and didn't want to admit that he was postponing.
"Oh. I would beg for my life, but I'm not one for being so weak as to do something like beg, and I don't think you're one for changing your mind."
"Usually not," he admitted. But there was something about her that he wanted to preserve. He had never had any feeling like this in his life. Is it infatuation or…love?
Vixen moved her head obviously, to draw his attention, looking away from him. "The main reason I don't want you to kill me is so I can look at you for a little longer, to be completely honest." Pai gasped, his eyes shooting open wider.
"Nani?" She turned again, but not to look at him. She looked at the wall they were facing, him still staring at her. He saw the red spread across her cheekbones and over the bridge of her nose.
"I think you're very, very attractive. I've never met anyone like you in my life. That's probably because I'm a metal rockstar and everyone on my planet knows everything about me, or thinks they do anyway. You intrigue me in a way I've never experienced before. There's just something about you that I can't put my finger on." Before Pai could absorb what she had said, although he could definitely relate, her pair of fuzzy white ears and silky white tail popped out. Her eyes widened in surprise and, giving a shout, she tossed the blanket over her head, tucking her tail back underneath the cover with her hand.
He pulled the blanket back off of her, wrapping it around her shoulders again to keep her warm. "Why do you hide it from me?"
"I'm just not used to it. I had to deal with them the whole show last night. Luckily I was able to pull them off as stage props."
"What are you?" he asked, then realized how offensive that sounded. "I mean, what animal do those belong to?"
"I believe an arctic fox. I was supposed to talk to Shirogane-san and Akasaka-san today, but you kidnapped me so I'm not certain." Pai looked down and blushed. "I was told by Zakuro-san that the same sort of thing happens to Ichigo. When she gets excited her cat ears and tail appear."
"Excited? What do you mean?"
"It happened most often when the boy she liked was around. You have the same effect on me. I don't know what you did earlier but I presume I fainted because you were coming so close to me."
"I bit you with my fangs, and my venom seeped into your system. But if you fainted that makes sense because you shouldn't have responded so quickly."
"What are you?" Vixen asked. "You don't look human."
"I'm not. Your race calls Kisshu, Taruto and I 'Aliens.' "
She smiled and said, "That makes sense." A small giggle escaped her. Without thinking, Pai traced her smile with his index finger. She stopped giggling abruptly, and her smile dropped. He quickly withdrew his hand.
"Gomen," he stammered awkwardly. She shook her head and said that it was a good thing he was so comfortable around her. He asked her why.
"I don't know if it makes a difference, since you're going to destroy me and all, but I'd rather like to be returned to my dimension, to my home, and…I guess see you in upcoming encounters. Please. I'd like to continue what we may have."
"But I don't want to fight you. I think it would be better if I killed you here—" he drew his fan and pointed it at her throat, "—and now. If I had to fight you, I don't think I could bring myself to do it. And that would defy Deep Blue-sama."
"Is he your leader?" He nodded. "Aren't you already defying him?" She gently pushed his arm down and leaned toward him, the blanket falling away and exposing her body, her top sliding off her shoulders. She pressed her lips against his, but kept her eyes open, to stare into his. "Onegai…" her lips formed with no sound. He had never been kissed before, and didn't know what to do, so on his best bet he pressed back. Her lips enclosed his and her tongue slipped between his lips and nudged his. His mouth opened in shock and she deepened the kiss, digging her fingers in his hair and holding his face tight to hers, pressing her body up against his, toppling him over and straddling his hips.
He had never been in this position before. All he knew is that he wanted her. His hands slid her top over her breasts and down over her narrow hips, slipping her boyshorts off as well. In one fluid motion, she was completely naked before him. She sat up and allowed him to look. Her hair slipped over her shoulders and covered vital parts that he wanted to explore if she allowed him. Her tail was wound around her thigh, covering her lower area. With a claw she neatly sliced his jumpsuit down the middle of his chest, over the transparent material covering his tight stomach, and down each pant leg. She cut through the bandages on his ankles and feet, and tugged off his armwarmers. Once he was wearing just as much clothing as she was, she went ahead and taught him everything she thought he should know.
