Ethical Consumer credit Lending Practices in the United States
Adopted by the Commission on Social Action
Fall 2007
Borrowing money can make it possible for individuals and families to secure a home or a car and escape the poverty that entrenches so many. Ideally, we would want all people to have access to credit and loans, regardless of income, citizenship, or race. However, the reality of our economy is that not all borrowers can obtain loans from the prime market. Due to a lack of credit history, collateral, or bad credit history, many must look to the subprime market. Such borrowers will often be burdened with higher interest rates and more stringent conditions. Too frequently, unethical lenders take advantage of less credit worthy borrowers by subjecting them to excessive interest and excessively complicated loans that trap borrowers in a number of ways, often leading to bankruptcy and/or loss of life savings, homes, and cars.
The collapse of the subprime lending market in the summer of 2007 and the recent spateof mortgage foreclosures is a significant example of the importance of ethical lending practices. This resolution does not address the mortgage crisis, not because the CSA believes that the issue warrants no action, but because it deserves its own resolution. While there is much to address regarding this crisis, this resolution focuses on the underlying issue of predatory lending. It also addresses a related issue: the impact of otherwise legal lending practices that affect all borrowers, but have particularly serious impact on those who are most economically vulnerable.
In this resolution, the phrase subprime lending market denotes the regulated lending market for borrowers who do not qualify for prime loans and seek alternative lending options. Predatory lending refers to lending practices that abuse the financial vulnerability of borrowers in the subprime market. Loans that are considered "predatory" carry unreasonably high interest rates, impose onerous terms and hidden fees on the borrower, and/or carry harsh penalties for failing to make timely payments and are often sold to borrowers with misrepresentation and misinformation.
Lenders, of course, may have to increase interest rates when taking on riskier loans, and high interest rates do not necessarily equate to irresponsible lending. Interest rates vary with the kind of loan, the risks associated with the loan, and the state of the market. Nonetheless, excessively burdensome transaction fees and loan terms, ostensibly justified by the riskiness of these loans, can be abusive and unethical. Other abusive lending practices include loan flipping (requiring a borrower to refinance a loan and incur fees in order to generate income for the lender), lending without regard to the borrowers ability to repay the loan, abusive prepayment penalties, and outright fraud, including undisclosed kickbacks to brokers.
Predatory lending can occur in many kinds of loans, including tax refund anticipation loans, payday loans (that have a typical APR of over 400%), overdraft protection, and auto title loans. While many of these practices are well known, others are not. Overdraft loans (which provide coverage to borrowers who have reached a negative account balance) may come with excessive fees per transaction and per day until a positive account balance has been reached. Auto title loansoften have inflated interest rates, a short repayment window, and are made for significantly less than the vehicles value.
Commercial arbitration agreements voluntarily entered into by two knowledgeable parties are an important form of alternative dispute resolution. But these agreements are not to be confused with the mandatory arbitration provisions that foreclose access to the courts often found in predatory lending agreements. The latter usually appear in the fine print in the documents that borrowers are required to sign. Often the borrower is unaware of their existence until a dispute arises. The terms of the agreement often provide for arbitrators to be chosen from a list favorable to the lender. The agreements usually provide restrictive rules to govern the arbitration proceedings. The arbitrator unlike a judge must be paid by the parties. Rules may call for splitting of costs or assessing all of them against the losing party. The rules may limit the right of the borrower to demand production of documents and may narrowly limit issues that can be raised. There is no appeal from the decision of the arbitrator.
Unfair lending practices affect the most vulnerable among us. Predatory lending victims are usually impoverished individuals, rural borrowers, people on fixed incomes, and women, minorities, seniors, and military service personnel. Student borrowers without adequate financial literacy are also vulnerable. A 2000 study by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development found that predatory lending practices are three times as likely in low-income communities, and five times as likely in black communities as in white communities.[1] Lending practices that abuse borrowers, rather than serve their needs, fuel a continuous spiral of economic injustice and poverty in our communities.
Loan counseling and education can help protect borrowers against predatory lenders and make them aware of the risks they face, but legal protections must also be strengthened.
Currently, federal law provides limited protections against predatory lending practices. For example, the Fair Credit Reporting Act regulates the activities of credit reporting businesses. The 2007 Defense Authorization bill included an amendment setting a 36% cap on interest rate loans available to those in the military a traditionally vulnerable population.
However, these provisions are inadequate to protect vulnerable individuals.There is no law requiring a plain language document that would provide borrowers with an outline of their rights in the lending market and in the judicial system. The principal plain language disclosure requirement comes from the federal Truth in Lending Act (TILA), which requires the lender to disclose the loans annual percentage rate before the close of the transaction. Overdraft loans, however, are not covered by the TILA.
States have also sought to address predatory lending practices. Among other efforts, strong laws capping interest rates, limiting loan fees, and reducing the number of loan renewals exist in Massachusetts, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oregon and West Virginia.
Jewish teachings and tradition highlight the importance of ethical business practices. Maimonides taught that loans should be a vehicle to self-reliance and not lead to a cycle of debt.[2] Leviticus 25:14 states that all business transactions should be done in good faith and with clear intentions: "If you sell something to your neighbor or buy something from your neighbors hand, you shall not wrong one another." Bava Metzia 50b states the rule that if an overcharge is more than one-sixth of a sale, it is null and void.
In this spirit, the Union for Reform Judaism has previously adopted resolutions regarding discrimination in matters of economic investment and set forth a goal of pursuing racial and gender equality, and economic justice in our synagogues and communities (Commitment to Racial Justice (1963) and Economic Justice for Women (1983)). In 1997, the Union adopted a resolution on Socially Responsible Investment and implemented the Chai Investment Program (CHIP), with the goal of both the endowment as well as congregations investing 1.8% of their endowments in community development vehicles (such as local credit unions and loan funds) that have as their mission to increase access to credit for those who would otherwise not have access to the financial resources necessary for economic development. This goal has been met with respect to the Unions endowment, and many congregations as well are participating in this initiative. Information about the CHIP program can be found at the RACs website.
THEREFORE, the Union for Reform Judaism resolves to:
1. Support a lending market that responsibly provides credit to consumers, including:
a. Providing borrowers with suitable lending products to meet their needs;
b. Considering borrowers ability to repay the loan, interest and other fees; and
c. Providing mechanisms to address abusive practices.
2. Advocate for and support institutions that provide expanded access to fair and ethical banking services for low-income populations.
3. Support enactment and enforcement of legislation that would:
a. Cap interest rates on all forms of consumer loans at a level that is reasonable for borrowers but appropriately recognizes the risk that lenders incur;
b. Mandate mechanisms designed to increase borrowers understanding of the loan and loan terms;, including requiring lenders to provide borrowers with plain language documents explaining the provisions of the loan and detailing their rights in the collection process;
c. Require lenders to provide a mechanism for borrowers to communicate directly with their current lender/servicer to resolve disputes, including actions by lenders to collect outstanding debt and remedies to help consumers in default; and
d. Ban routine inclusion of mandatory arbitration provisions in loan documents.
4. Call for a revision of the Truth in Lending Act so that its requirements apply to all consumer lending products including overdraft loans.
5. Encourage our congregations to educate their congregants and communities about the dangers of predatory lending, as well as the need for responsible use of credit.
6. Urge congregants to volunteer their time educating those in the community who are most susceptible to predatory lending.

David Hidalgo & Alejandro Escovedo perform tonight, and as reminder, the show will start at 8 p.m., not 9 p.m. (as is usually the case on the weekends at The State Room).
his special tour features the pairing of Los Lobos' David Hidalgo and Austin-based rock troubadour Alejandro Escovedo — both of whom have extolled the virtues of local Mexican restaurant Red Iguana for years.
"I haven't found better Mexican food than Red Iguana," said Escovedo in a phone interview.
He said he always surprises people when they ask him — a Latino Texan — where the best Mexican food can be found, and he answers Red Iguana.
Food aside, Escovedo is on the resurgence in part because he recently agreed to be managed by Jon Landau, the former Rolling Stone rock critic who became Bruce Springsteen's manager and guided The Boss to stardom.
"It's been a big thing having Jon Landau," Escovedo said. "He's a visionary. His guidance has been invaluable." What's interesting about the partnership, Escovedo said, was that he "had a reputation as being unmanageable."
When • Tonight at 8
Where • The State Room, 638 S. State St., Salt Lake City

Never trust the yanks and their opinions, their car industry is about to follow the British one down the plug hole, and they have voted in more idiots than us brits have, anyway it will be highly regarded by the Americans as a great bike but will be slated by the Europeans as being dull, slow, un-reliable and expensive, just like a newer Harley, which are frankly crap as well.

Some of the comments on here seems a little harsh - I for one am keen to see a new manufacturer. Especially one prepared to try some new things. Styling is as always, subjective. The looks aren't my cup of tea, but i think they're working on a naked one which could well be more my brew. On this quick look, it already looks better than the 300kg, 15lit fuel tanked VFR1200 ;)

Stereotypes are common because they are so often true, and Harley has surely ruined the reputation of america as far as motorcycling goes. (Just because your bikes were good in the 50's doesn't mean the bikes are still the best today without changing them). BUT this isn't Harley!!!!! I think there are some overly critical comments and opinions already on these Motus prototypes. I have a hard time seeing how crappy Harley reliability has anything to do with this bike. With Pratt&Miller and Katech helping to engineer and build the engine, tranny, and chassis, this has the potential to be stone reliable. Why can't we at least wait for the finished products to be tested before bashing it to pieces on a forum?
As for the sound in the video, I've heard the engine on the dyno near redline (with open headers) in another video and it was hair-raising! But in this video I don't like it. It's probably just the prototype's exhaust or the sound recording being a bit distorted (if it was too loud?) in the video. Nothing a decent aftermarket setup couldn't work with. ( I want one of these engines on a stand in the garage to mastubate to )

Hospital rebrands chemotherapy as DC-themed "superformula" for kids
Chemotherapy is never fun, but A.C.Camargo Cancer Center in São Paulo is trying to make it easier for children to accept the treatment. They're rebranding the treatment as "superformula" and using comics to help kids understand chemo.
Buzzfeed's Copyranter blog explains that the cancer center is working with ad agency JWT, which also works with Warner Bros. The idea was to help children believe in the power of chemotherapy to make them ultimately better. They're not just covering the chemo cases with superhero logos; they're also giving pediatric cancer patients comic books in which the heroes experience something similar to cancer and must receive a similar treatment formulated by doctors. And in the comics, the cases for the treatment bags look just like the cases the kids get over their own chemo bags.

Thanks Nick. The Serial prints, etc. inside the handlers was out of desperation to debug this thing!
I am backing out everything and starting from scratch again just to re-verify the entire project. I can't explain the problem either, but I'm assuming user error. I just can't figure out why it works fine on the 328 chip and not this one. I'll keep digging and post a follow-up. I appreciate your input.

Did you ever realize what a lifesaver the backpack is? Think about how many vitals the average wilderness pack transports on a given trip--food, clothing, shelter, hydration. If you need it, the backpack holds it.
To a point. If you happen to need something completely oblong, large, heavy or awkward, the average backpack might not be able to help you out. If you're trying to shove 50 lbs. of camera equipment or a few fishing rods into your pack, you might be out of luck. Unless of course, you have one of these specialized packs.
Clik Elite Packs
Let's face it, as much as I love to write, I'd be nowhere without a couple of pictures to illustrate my tale. Words alone just can't do the outdoors justice. If you're the type that likes to bring home footage of your every escapade, and like to do it on something a little more substantial than a $120 8-megapixel point-and-shoot, you've probably noticed that carrying a camera body and lenses around isn't the most comfortable thing to do.
Clik Elite makes it a little more comfortable and streamlined with a line of sport-specific packs that hold camera equipment and the other essential tools of the trade. They have backpacks, lumbar packs and chestpacks designed for pursuits like skiing, running and hiking. The packs include special compartments and straps to keep equipment like camera, lenses, battery packs and tripods organized and accessible, letting the photographer's lifeblood flow freely. The packs include hydration sleeves and storage for other essential gear of the sport in question. As a snowboarder, I'm naturally drawn to the Contrejour, but you can find one for your specific needs.
Glacier New River Pack
Could you imagine trying to shove a fishing pole, wet waders and dirty wading boots into your average backpack? Your gear would be a tangled, soaking, muddy mess of hooks, fishing line and sheer mayhem. Plus it would smell like worms, minnows or whatever bait was the flavor of the day. Not cool.
Now imagine sliding your pole into a hard tube, attaching that with the specially designed strap on the side, throwing your wader boots into a mesh compartment designed for that very purpose, placing your waders in a holder designed to dry them, and keeping the rest of your gear and clothing clean and protected in the main compartment. Much better? Much better.
The New River Pack costs $150.
Granite Gear Rat Packs
More than just a whimsical name, these packs are the perfect accessory for the weekend warrior. You want to be out backpacking the Continental Divide, but instead you're stuck in the rat race bike commuting to work each day. But the weekend, that's all yours.
That's why the Rat Packs transform from standard briefcases designed to hold laptops and papers and such to hydration-compatible backpacks. Why buy two big hunks of nylon when you can get by with one.
Built on Granite Gear's Vapor frame, the packs include stowable shoulder straps and hip belts and a removable pad to protect your laptop. Features that will serve you well both in the forest and on the subway include ear-bud pockets, tough Cordura build and external zip pockets. The Rat Race (pictured) runs $190, the Rat Pack $200 and the larger Rat Patrol runs $250.
And if you're more of a full-week warrior, consider Granite Gear's new Nimbus Core to fend the grizzlies off.

Archive for the 'Daytona International Speedway' tag
First vintage 24-hour race in America coming to Daytona
Where do you go to see Porsche 917s and Ferrari 512S sports prototypes locked in mortal nighttime combat? Your scratched-copy DVD of Le Mans? A better option is in the offing: Coming this November, the first for-real 24-hour endurance race for vintage competition cars in North American history will take place at Daytona International Speedway.
The new Classic 24 at Daytona, as it's being called, is a collaboration between Historic Sportscar Racing Ltd., the Historic Motor Sports Association and Vintage Racing Events. It mirrors an established, successful race at Le Mans, and is a salute to Daytona's long heritage of distance racing, which dates back to Dan Gurney's 1962 victory in the inaugural Daytona Continental, which lasted a mere three hours that year. The accompanying photo, by Bill Warner, demonstrates the kind of heavy hitting that's battered the high banks for decades.
The race is set for November 12-16. For more information, contact HSR general manager James Redman via firstname.lastname@example.com or 772-713-0963.
This Day in History: First Daytona 500 held
On February 22, 1959, the first Daytona 500 was held at the newly opened Daytona International Speedway. The 200-lap race ended in a photo finish between Lee Petty and Johnny Beauchamp; Beauchamp was initially declared the winner, but Petty appealed and was found to have edged him out by a nose in his Olds 88.
Have you seen these cars? 24 Hours of Daytona looking for its missing winners

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the 24 Hours of Daytona, officials at the Daytona International Speedway have begun a search for every car that's won the international endurance race in an effort to assemble as many of those cars as possible for the 2012 running next month, but three cars in particular have proven elusive, and speedway officials are asking your help to locate them.
Leading the list is the Ferrari 312PB, pictured above, which won the 1972 edition of the race (that year shortened to six hours) with Mario Andretti and Jacky Ickx at the wheel for Scuderia Ferrari. One of 11 or 12 such 3.0L boxer-12-powered prototypes built, serial number 0888 helped Ferrari win every World Championship race it entered that year. According to barchetta.cc, it appears to currently belong to a Swiss owner.
Next up, the 1979 Porsche 935/79 entered by Interscope Racing in what was then the 24 Hour Pepsi Challenge and driven by Hurley Haywood, Ted Field, and Danny Ongais. Serial number 990-029 was one of seven cars Porsche built for customers (and one of two Field bought) toward the end of factory 935 development, using a single turbocharger on a 3.2-liter engine. According to Lee Self's book, Porsche Turbo USA, the closest it came to repeating its Daytona performance was a pair of second-place finishes later that year before it was crashed in practice for the Daytona finale. It has since been restored and reportedly has made its way to France.
Finally, the 1998 Ferrari 333SP prototype, driven by Mauro Baldi, Arie Luyendyk, Gianpiero Moretti, and Didier Theys for Doran-Moretti Racing. One of 40 such cars built by Dallara and Michelotto, serial number 019 used an F1-derived 4.0L V-12 in a mid-engine configuration for power. After being involved in a three-way trade for a Ferrari 250 GTO in 2003, it left public view.
According to Daytona officials, 25 of the 49 race winners (for those counting, no race was held in 1974 due to the energy crisis) will be on hand for the 50th anniversary of the race, including
* the Lotus-Climax 19B that Dan Gurney drove to win the three-hour inaugural Daytona Continental in 1962
* the Ford GT40 Mark II that Ken Miles and Lloyd Ruby drove to win the first 24 Hours of Daytona in 1966
* the Porsche 907LH that Vic Elford, Jochen Neerpasch, Rolf Stommelen, Jo Siffert, and Hans Herrmann drove to win the 1968 24 Hours of Daytona
* the Lola T70 MkIIIB Chevrolet that Mark Donohue and Chuck Parsons drove to win the 1969 24 Hours of Daytona
* the Porsche 917K that Pedro Rodríguez, Leo Kinnunen, and Brian Redman drove to win the 1970 24 Hours of Daytona
* the Porsche 911 RSR that Hurley Haywood, John Graves, and Dave Helmick drove to win the 1977 24 Hours of Daytona
* the Porsche 935 K3 that Bobby Rahal, Brian Redman, and Bob Garretson drove to win the 1981 24 Hour Pepsi Challenge
* the Porsche 935 JLP-3 that John Paul, Sr., John Paul, Jr., and Rolf Stommelen drove to win the 1982 24 Hour Pepsi Challenge
* the Porsche 935L that A. J. Foyt, Preston Henn, Bob Wollek, and Claude Ballot-Lena drove to win the 1983 24 Hour Pepsi Challenge
* the March 83G-Porsche that Sarel van der Merwe, Tony Martin, and Graham Duxbury drove to win the 1984 SunBank 24 at Daytona
* the Porsche 962 that A. J. Foyt, Bob Wollek, Al Unser, and Thierry Boutsen drove to win the 1985 SunBank 24 at Daytona
* the Toyota Eagle MkIII that P. J. Jones, Mark Dismore, and Rocky Moran drove to win the 1993 Rolex 24 at Daytona
* the Nissan 300XZ Turbo that Paul Gentilozzi, Scott Pruett, Butch Leitzinger, and Steve Millen drove to win the 1994 Rolex 24 at Daytona
Anybody with information on the whereabouts of the three missing 24 Hours of Daytona winning cars is urged to contact the speedway at 386-681-5343 or email@example.com. The 50th anniversary Rolex 24 at Daytona will take place January 28-29; for more information, visit DaytonaInternationalSpeedway.com.

You've Changed, Paul Thomas Anderson. I Hardly Even Know You Anymore.Features By Matthew Monagle on September 2, 2014 | Be the First To Comment
In 2012, Owen Gleiberman wrote a piece for Entertainment Weekly explaining why he had fallen out of love with the films of Paul Thomas Anderson. In the article, Gleiberman shares his own thrill of discovering Boogie Nights at the 1997 Toronto Film Festival and the impact it had on him as a film critic; he then goes on to discuss his perceived problems with There Will Be Blood and why Anderson's films no longer affect him the same way. I came across Gleiberman's article recently during my struggle to detail my own relationship to Anderson's films. Like Gleiberman, my first Anderson film was a revelation. As a manager for an independent theater in a small town, it was my job to assemble a 35mm print of Punch-Drunk Love during my Thursday shift and sit by myself through a midnight technical screening. I was tired after a long day and annoyed that I hadn't been able to pawn what I assumed to be another Adam Sandler comedy off on any of my coworkers. Naturally, I spent the rest of my evening in a state of shock at what I had seen. In that empty theater at two in the morning, I watched a movie that could have been made just for me; Anderson and Sandler overclocked my sense of empathy and made Barry Egan the most heartbreaking character I had seen on screen. And so began five years of obsessing over Anderson's previous films – Hard Eight, Boogie Nights, Magnolia – […]
12 Great Characters We Hate By the End of the MovieCinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on January 24, 2013 | Comments (10)
Sometimes a person just doesn't get along. In films, it can be the other characters that don't mesh, or sometimes it's the audience themselves who just can't stand a single idiot character that won't go away. I believe the term is "Jar-Jaring" or, if you're referring to television, "pulling a Lori." Last year I gave you a pretty okay list of characters that achieved excellent redemptions for their wrongdoings. Today I want to explore those who did not. These are the asshole characters that tried and failed, or simply didn't try at all. Hey spoilers!
How the First Two Phases of Paul Thomas Anderson's Career Led Directly to 'The Master'Culture Warrior By Landon Palmer on September 25, 2012 | Comments (3)
In 2002, a shift occurred in the structure and thematic concerns that inform the style, characters, and narratives of Paul Thomas Anderson's films. Anderson's fourth film, Punch-Drunk Love, clocking in at only ninety-four minutes (exactly half the length of his previous Magnolia) seemed a necessary exercise in modesty for the ambitious auteur, a means of proving himself capable of telling a story that focuses on the lives of less than a half dozen characters in a running time that is far from daunting. This film seemed, at the time, to be a momentary departure. Certainly Anderson, after working Adam Sandler toward what will certainly remain the greatest performance of his career, would return to constructing complex labyrinths depicting the intertwining lives of many memorable characters. After all, Punch-Drunk Love only featured two members of Anderson's signature ensemble (Philip Seymour Hoffman and Luis Guzman). But as There Will Be Blood indicated, Anderson intended no such return to Altmanesque mosaics, opting instead to dive even further into the impenetrable psychologies of enigmatic leading men, an interest that has almost inevitably led Anderson's trajectory to The Master.
6 Filmmaking Tips From Paul Thomas AndersonFeatures By Scott Beggs on September 19, 2012 | Comments (1)
By now, a large amount of people have been able to see The Master and to build a few sandcastles with Paul Thomas Anderson. The director has grown from a young man fascinated by the nondescript buildings with porn being shot inside to a formidable creator, exploring twists on religion and family. He's got film fans in his palm, which makes every new project he releases an event movie. But he still remembers to wait until the coffee is poured. So here is a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a 70mm heavyweight.
The 14 Most Mundane Movie Murder WeaponsCinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on September 13, 2012 | Comments (12)
As most of us no doubt know, it's hard enough just to live with yourself after committing a gruesome murder – let alone dealing with logistics of the body and police and all that jazz. Thank god the act itself can be done pretty easily these days – what with all the guns and knives and catapults we have access to. Of course the problem is that your victim is always going to see it coming when you're wheeling out your homemade trebuchet, which is why the best weapon is the one that's right under their noses. The moving pictures know this, and have given us some remarkable kills with very unremarkable items in the past… Oh also – be warned now, the following is pretty gross.
Movie News After Dark: Elysium, The Imposter, The Spider-Man, What is IMAX and There Will Be SceneryMovie News By Neil Miller on July 6, 2012 | Comments (3)
What is Movie News After Dark? After inadvertantly taking the night off last night due to a surprise viewing of the extended cut of Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (all 4 hours and 10 minutes, baby), it's a nightly movie news and notes column and is just here to send you off to your weekend with a few fun reads. That's exactly how many we've got tonight. A few. We begin the evening with a shot of a bald, robotically enhanced Matt Damon in a new shot from Neill Blomkamp's Elysium. For a movie being made with such a low profile, that sure is a big image. A Chem-rail gun (I don't know what that is, but it sounds fun) and some exoskeletal goodness. Plus, Damon is looking quite militant. Here's hoping we get more of this one at Comic-Con next week.
Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood Scores Another Film ScoreMovie News By Nathan Adams on February 14, 2011 | Be the First To Comment
It's been a pretty big day on the Internet for Jonny Greenwood. First it was announced that Radiohead's next album 'The King of Limbs' has gone up for digital pre-order and will be able to be downloaded on February 19. And now it has been reported that Greenwood will score director Lynne Ramsay's (Ratcatcher) next film We Need to Talk About Kevin. This is important news because Greenwood's score for There Will Be Blood was completely awesome and more stuff from people who are awesome is always a positive.
Culture Warrior: Goodfellas for Geeks, or My Response to the Facebook MovieCulture Warrior By Landon Palmer on October 5, 2010 | Be the First To Comment
The Social Network is nothing new, but that's kind of the point. Its structure creates a story of uniquely American ingenuity, individualism, and capital that we've seen often, one that follows beat-for-beat the formula of young, ambitious, humble beginnings to meteoric rise toward contested success to the people that really mattered being inevitably pushed out of the way. It is in The Social Network's belonging to that subgenre which draws apt comparison to films like Citizen Kane, Sweet Smell of Success, or There Will Be Blood – not qualitative comparisons, mind you (the very title of Citizen Kane has become an inescapable and meaningless form of hyperbole in that regard), but comparable in terms of basic narrative structure and genre play. Such narratives are perhaps more common in films depicting less legitimate business practices – gangster films – which also catalog the rise in stature but fall in character of an outcast who uses the system for their own advantage. From starry-eyed associations with questionable made men (Timberlake's Sean Parker and the debaucheries of success associated with him) to the inevitable "hit" on one's kin in the best interest of the business (Zuckerberg and Parker firing Eduardo Saverin), The Social Network is something of a Goodfellas for geeks. Why is it that the first major studio film about the phenomenon of social networking feels like such a familiar movie? Why does it resort to well-honed, expertly crafted but familiar cinematic territory instead of pioneering unexplored terrain analogous to the phenomenon […]

Culture Warrior: On Hollywood and CheatingCulture Warrior By Landon Palmer on February 9, 2010 | Comments (9)
I typically save the boiling points for Robert Fure, aiming instead to frame my column as an observation of media rather than a critique, analyzing trends and their meaning in the context of film and television as an intersecting object of commerce and art. But there is something that has been getting under my skin in some films released in the past several months, and it's the way that Hollywood deals with the subject infidelity.

Nike Trainer 1 – Black – Silver – White – Cactus
July 13th, 2009 by Aaron Hope | No comments
The latest Nike Trainer 1 bears a striking resemblance to the original colourway, but includes one key difference. The palette is nearly identical, with the main difference being a swap of the classic chlorophyll hue for cactus yellow. This shade outlines the Swoosh and adds touches on the tongue and Air bubble. if you're getting ready for football or some other sport, grab these today from FinishLine.

The 1991 spy-fi spoof, If Looks Could Kill (a/k/a Teen Agent) starring Richard Grieco, Burn Notices's Gabrielle Anwar and Linda Hunt, is finally available on DVD, albeit from Warner Archive, Warner Brothers' "manufacture-on-demand" service.
According to their website, this high quality DVD-R is presented in full-frame (same as the old VHS) release, and has no extra features.
It's a fun spoof of the 007 series, with a number of cool action set-pieces of its own. I don't much care for Grieco, but the rest of the cast is quite good, and the villain's plot is pretty cool.
I transferred my own VHS copy to DVD-R a while back, but I have to assume that this Warner Archive transfer is probably a lot sharper. To bad it's not in widescreen, though I'm not absolutely certain what the correct theatrical aspect ratio should be. I'm tempted to order it, but there are a lot of other titles in the WA collection I'd want to get first (like the Lex Barker and Gordon Scott Tarzans).
The retail price is $19.95 and it is only available through the Warner online store.

7 'Actual' Cases that 'Hurt Religious Sentiments'If Shaheen Dhada 'hurt religious sentiments', then what about these high-profile politicians and raunchy celebs that are still at large…

3 Buddha in Rakhi Sawant's Bathroom
In a television show, Rakhi Ki Raisi, that was aired on April 28, 2007, viewers were given a glimpse into her lavish and ostentatious lifestyle. While taking the TV crew around the house, Rakhi also took them to her bathroom, where she had kept a statuette of Buddha. A section of viewers in Amravati took strong objection to this, tagging it an "insulting" gesture.

This past April, High Line horticultural staff, volunteers, and teens in our Green Corps program helped local gardener Tari Stubblefield restore a garden at the Fulton Houses in Chelsea. The initiative, called Neighbor Day, was a partnership between Friends of the High Line, Fulton Houses Tenant Association President Miguel Acevedo, and the NYCHA Gardening & Sustainability Unit.
See more photos below.
This blog post was written by Teen Arts Council members William Natal, Eva Polanco, and Pedro Hidalgo.
The Teen Arts Council, or TAC, is a group of teenagers who are seasonally employed by Friends of the High Line. While working at the High Line, TAC plans, organizes, and creates two teen nights each July and August in the the park's 14th Street Passage. Come meet us at our first event, 90s in NYC, on Thursday, July 17. Read more about us after the jump!
On June 26, Friends of the High Line will celebrate the graduation of the Green Corps class of 2014 with a Garden Party. In anticipation of this year's program coming to an end, Green Corps Leaders Beatrice Ramos and Winona Holderbaum have chosen five important moments from the year to highlight.
Long before the High Line was a forgone conclusion, Friends of the High Line staff learned a valuable lesson about the power of programming from our very first landlords. In 2002, Josh David and Robert Hammond opened the first Friends of the High Line offices in the Hudson Guild. Offering a combination of cultural and educational programming and social services, the Guild is a vital hub for local residents, and builds lasting relationships throughout their lives.
Over the years, the Guild has served as a teacher and partner in responsive programming that welcomes local residents and serves their needs and interests. In 2006, Friends of the High Line's former Special Projects Manager, Meredith Taylor, created our first after-school program with children from the Guild. In 2009, former Director of Public Programs, Education & Community Engagement, Danya Sherman, worked with the Guild to hire teens from their PowerUP program as our first Youth Corps staff. And in 2010, Danya's collaboration with Guild staff led to the creation of ¡Arriba!, a live Latin music night that has attracted more than 6,500 people over the last four years.
On Thursday, July 18, Friends of the High Line and the High Line Teen Arts Council, welcomed more than 275 teens to the first High Line Teen Night. The theme was "High Line Boardwalk," and visitors ate cotton candy, danced to summer jams, and tried their luck at carnival games.
Four months in the making, the event was produced entirely by local teens—and they made sure that we all had a blast! Check out more photos from the night after the jump. And mark your calendars for the second High Line Teen Night: Rising Stars, on Thursday, August 15.

Athletes test their limits during extraordinary long triathlons
Arthur Puckrin, 69, of England pedaled for 336 miles during an ultra-long triathlon at Lake Anna State Park this month, eating ice cream along the way.

Date published: 10/21/2007
The prize is often nothing more than hugs from family and friends and the satisfaction of a goal accomplished at the finish line.
"You can do it, if you put in enough time and effort and training," Wortley said. "What you have to decide is, is it worth it for you?"knowing when to stop
Rudy Dressendorfer of Penryn, Calif., is a licensed physical therapist, triathlete and Ph.D. who has focused his research on the the physiological and medical consequences of overtraining in endurance sports.
He said that training for a distance event can reveal unknown weaknesses in the body, allowing people to make more educated decisions about what to put themselves through in the future.
He gave the example of a young woman who was training for a half-marathon and discovered she had an uncommon heart condition that she never would have known about if she'd stayed sedentary.
But ultra-runners often talk about the key to their success being their ability to numb themselves to the pain they feel as the miles build up.
Dressendorfer worries about that aspect, since pain is one of the main ways our bodies tell us something's not right.
And according to those who finished the triathlons at Lake Anna, listening to those messages is critical.
Chang said certain kinds of pain--like muscle soreness and blisters--are to be expected during long-distance training or racing.
However, he said, "If you are having sharp, acute pain that appears to be joint-related, then you are probably overdoing things."
Distinguishing between those two is the challenge.
Roche-Wallace said she's dropped out of races before. She set up her own deca-iron triathlon course--10 Ironman-distance triathlons in 10 days--near her Michigan home, but quit after five to avoid injury.
"That's always a really hard decision," Wortley said. "It's a matter of learning your own limits."Emily Battle: 540/374-5413

Marketplace Meditations 12/6
Labor Alone Will Not Satisfy
December 6
"All the labor of man is for his mouth, and yet the soul is not satisfied" (Eccl. 6:7 NKJV).
How would you feel about yourself if your job was removed from you tomorrow? Let's imagine that your income wouldn't change, just what you did everyday.
One of the schemes that Satan uses in the life of the Christian worker is to get him/her to view their value solely based on the type of work they do and how well they do it. We call this performance-based acceptance. It says "As long as I have a good job and I do it well, I have self-esteem."
This is a "slippery slope" and can be used by Satan to keep our focus on our performance versus Christ. We are never to find our value in what we do. Instead, our value is solely based on who we are in Christ. The apostle Paul wrestled with this after he came to faith in Christ. He had grown to the top of his field as a Jewish leader.
"If anyone else thinks he has reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee; as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for legalistic righteousness, faultless.
"But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ-the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith" (Phil 3:4-9).
You'll never really know to the degree that your self-esteem is rooted in your work until your work is removed. Unemployment, illness, or a financial crisis can lead to job loss.
Why not evaluate where you are in this area of your life. Affirm with God your desire to be known by Who you know versus what you do.

PLAYERS: John Cena
- In its weekly "Wayback Wednesday" feature, the official WWE website has published a photo gallery chronicling the history of John Cena's T-Shirts: "The Cenation leader's ever-changing tees tell the story of his decade with WWE as he matured from a cocky hip hip-hop head in throwback jerseys to an established, respected locker room leader who proudly donned pink to support breast cancer awareness. Here, WWE Classics chronicles the evolution of John Cena from brash b-boy to confident Cenation leader — one shirt at a time." This photo gallery is not the complete history of Cena's T-Shirts as many of his garments from his "Doctor of Thuganomics" days are not acknowledged, such as one that read "Ruck Fules!" - The former Bella Twins, Nicole and Brianna, have launched a fitness based website, BnNHealth.com.

Hacking the Academy
May 29, 2010 by Doug Blandy
Hacking the Academy is a book that was crowd sourced in one week. The questions the book responds to are:
Can an algorithm edit a journal?
Can a library exist without books?
Can students build and manage their own learning management platforms?
Can a conference be held without a program?
Can Twitter replace a scholarly society?
I am associated with two submissions to the project.
John Fenn and I submitted "Art and (Sustainable Society: Re-Mix: An Exercise in building a course using transmedia pedagogy." This entry appears under "Educational Technology."
Kristin Congdon, John Fenn, Tomas Valladares, and I submitted "Interrogating Interpretation." This entry appears under "Scholarship and Scholarly Communication."

text: Posted Online: Jan. 05, 2013, 5:47 pm Sherrard girls kick into gear in 2nd half over Central at Shootout Comment on this story By Marc Nesseler, email@example.com More photos from this shoot Photo: John Greenwood Sherrard's Shelby Calderone tries to snag a pass while being guarded by Davenport Central's Rodkeesha Jackson at the 2013 Dearrel Bates Mississippi River Shootout Saturday at Black Hawk College. More photos from this shoot Photo: John Greenwood Sherrard's Riley Strandgard is pressured by Davenport Central's Heather Vieger while making a jump shot at the 2013 Dearrel Bates Mississippi River Shootout Saturday at Black Hawk College. More photos from this shoot Photo: John Greenwood Sherrard's Carly Adams drives towards the rim as Davenport Central's Rodkeesha Jackson defends during the 2013 Dearrel Bates Mississippi River Shootout Saturday at Black Hawk College. With Sherrard, a one-loss team, facing Davenport Central, a one-win team, and Sherrard leading by just four points at halftime of the Dearrel Bates Mississippi River Shootout battle, clearly the Tigers girls' basketball team needed to flip a switch. Or acquire a supply of medical masks. Masks unavailable, they got the spark flip from Carly Adams, one of those feeling under the weather. Adams scored eight third-quarter points to propel the 18-1 Tigers to a 53-33 victory at Black Hawk College. The biggest of those was a 3-pointer, Adams' first basket, 1:35 into the second half. That was the start of a 16-2 run that made the game more of what it was expected to be based on team records. "We've had a few under the weather – Carly, Riley Strandgard, myself for what seems like a couple of months," related Sherrard coach Doug Swanson."We needed Carly in that first half, and she didn't score a point. But I felt the same thing, that that 3-pointer by her was just what we needed to get going." Just based on Sherrard's stellar record vs. Central being 1-9, a first half in which the Tigers led just 22-18 might be tough to explain or figure out. "We just weren't ready to go," said Swanson. "We just were not focused." That was quite evident by the turnover statistics – eight for the Tigers and six for the Blue Devils through the first two quarters. By the end, Sherrard won the turnover battle, 19-22. "We talked about being more aggressive in the second half," the Sherrard coach said. With Adams' spark, that came about. Sherrard put two in double-figure scoring, with Shelby Calderone leading the way with 14 points and Anne Winston getting 13. Two others, Adams and Strandgard, missed that mark by a basket each. Rebounds, too, were spread around for the Tigers. Strandgard was tops with six, with Erin Barton getting five and Calderone and Winston both with four. "Anne Winston was big for us in the first half; she was why we were able to stay in it," Swanson noted. Winston, the Tigers' senior center, had nine of her points in the first half. The Blue Devils were led by starting point guard Makayla Buck and reserve center Bri Nash, both with 10 points. Outside of Buck, though, scoring from Central starters was practicallynonexistent. The other starters were 1 of 13 shooting for two points. Reserves accounted for 21 of its 33 points. Sherrard is now 2-0 in the Shootout, with 2012 being its maiden trip.
