Ben Bernanke is Every Gold Bug's Best Friend
After prices fell 10% in December, many investors wondered if the bull market in gold was running out of steam.
That was before Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke swooped in with a "red cape" and fired the bulls back up.
Since the Fed reassured the world that interest rates will remain at "exceptionally low levels" for another two years, gold has jumped more than 3%.
UBS AG (NYSE: UBS) described the situation simply, "if investors needed a (further) reason why they should be long gold now, they got it yesterday ... a more accommodative policy is a very good foundation for gold to build on the next move higher."
To gold bugs, two more years of near-zero, short-term interest rates means negative real interest rates are here to stay, and this has historically been a strong driver for higher gold prices.
Bernanke and the Fed aren't the only central bankers in the fiscal and monetary bullring.
Brazil has cut its benchmark interest rate a few times and China lowered its reserve rate for banks in December. According to ISI Group, 78 "easing moves" have been announced around the world in just the past five months as countries look to stimulate economic activity.
One of the main weapons central bankers have employed is money supply, which has created a ton of liquidity in the global system. Global money supply rose 8% year-over-year in December, or about $4 trillion, according to ISI. I mentioned a few weeks ago how China experienced a record increase in the three-month change in M-2 money supply following China's reserve rate cut.
Together, negative real interest rates and growing global money supply power the Fear Trade for gold. The pressure these two factors put on paper currencies motivates investors from Baby Boomers to central bankers to hold gold as an alternate currency.

The Madness of Crowds: How to Play Bonds, China, and Gold in 2012
Yes, I know that markets are irrational.
I read Charles Mackay's 1841 classic, "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" long before it ever became fashionable.
Even so, when you think about it, 2011 must set some kind of record.
As investors, that means we need to decide whether this madness will continue in 2012 and which direction to take.
Take the madness in the bond world, for instance.
Long-term bonds of a country with an out-of-control budget deficit and a worrying trade deficit are currently yielding 1.6% below inflation.
In other words, year after year, investors are willing to pay 1.6% of their capital to hold them. On top of that, investors have been so keen on this miserable asset in 2011 they have bid up its price by no less than 26%.
Conversely, China is revolutionizing the world economy.
Year after year, China puts up growth rates of 8% or more, and the latest data suggest that will continue throughout 2012.
What's more, Chinese stocks stand on a bargain-basement price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of less than 8-times earnings. Yet, in 2011, investors shunned these bargains, giving the Chinese market a pathetic return of minus-22%.
It is Madness I Tell YouDo you see what I mean when I talk about irrational?
To a Martian, these statistics would be proof that earthly markets had lost their collective minds. That's not just a random walk - it's a deliberate stroll that will destroy your wealth.
For investors, it raises the question of how long this irrationality is going to last. Will this extreme irrationality persist in 2012, or will it reverse?
The first conclusion to be drawn is that current markets...

China Fears Much Ado About Nothing
Markets in Hong Kong, Vietnam, Taiwan and Korea were closed last week as people across Asia celebrated Moon Festival, one of the culture's most beloved holidays along with Chinese New Year. Moon Festival's origins center around a husband (Houyi) and wife (Chang'e), who were sentenced to live eternally separated on the sun and the moon.
Chang'e, representing "Yin," lives on the moon and Houyi, representing "Yang," lives on the sun. Once a year, on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Houyi visits his wife and that is the reason why the full moon burns brightly on this night.
For many, the yin and the yang illustrate the importance of having balance in life. Investors must find the right risk/reward balance. Businesses must find the right capital spending/revenues balance. And, we all must strive to find the right work/life balance.
China's Economy Finds BalanceBalance is also a crucial goal for China's economy - the economy must not grow too quickly or risk a sharp correction. Just this year, China has weathered an epic battle with inflation, drought and floods, poor global macroeconomic conditions, massive accounting/corruption scandals and a tragic accident on one of its marquee achievements-the country's high speed rail system.
We've discussed the tremendous build-out of China's high-speed rail system before. And earlier this month, I was lucky enough to see what traveling at the speed of China feels like firsthand. I was on a train that averaged 185 miles per hour during the 923-mile trip from Shanghai to Beijing. I've traveled to all corners of the world and have seen many things during my travels, but viewing China's explosive growth as it flies by you is something I will never forget.
China remains the beacon of hope for the global economy, the largest and, many times, the "sole engine of the world economy," BCA Research says. China's real gross domestic product (GDP) is forecasted to grow 8.9% in 2011 and 7.8% in 2012, according to ISI Group. This is a slower rate of growth compared to recent years but "doesn't look like an economy struggling under tighter credit conditions," GaveKal research says.
The key to China's economic growth isn't "how fast?" or "how much?" The most critical question is "what's driving it?"

Chinese Homebuyers Throw a Life Raft to the U.S. Housing Market
From New York to Honolulu, Chinese homebuyers are swooping in to help salvage the U.S. housing market.
Indeed, California, Florida, New York, and even Hawaii have seen a marked up-tick in home sales to Chinese buyers who are exporting their country's real estate boom to the United States, according to Bloomberg News.
Increased regulation at home and education and investment opportunities are chief among the reasons real estate in the United States - as well as the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada - has piqued Chinese interest.
According to a survey by the National Association of Realtors, Chinese buyers accounted for 9% of foreign home purchases in the 12 months ended in March of both 2010 and 2011. That's up from 5% in 2009.
"The purchase restrictions in China drove them overseas, while they look for investments to counter the inflation," Mo Tianquan, founder and chairman of Beijing-based SouFun Holdings Ltd. - a company that runs China's biggest real estate Website and organizes buying excursions abroad - told Bloomberg. "Some of them will buy homes considering better education opportunities for their kids, while others look for immigration options."
Take Cupertino, Calif., for example. Sales of existing single-family homes in Cupertino rose 21% in the first quarter from a year earlier, largely due to an influx of Chinese shoppers who are making huge cash purchases.
"We're seeing a huge number of all-cash transactions, and most of those are from mainland China," Nina Yamaguchi, managing broker at Coldwell Banker's residential office in Cupertino, told Bloomberg. "The thing that draws the Asians here is the schools are so highly touted. Cupertino is certainly not beautiful. It doesn't have wonderful architecture."

The Japanese Economy: How Its Post-Earthquake Weakness and Scuffles With China Contribute to a Global-Market Reversal
In our ongoing search for possible "inflection-point" catalysts - financial stimulants that could help turn global markets upside down - the Japanese economy has to be a prime candidate.
In the last part of the 1980s, Japan was the world power - so much so that investors on the U.S. trading floors of New York each day watched the Tokyo markets with a mixture of awe and fear. An oft-cited investing aphorism of the day explained this very clearly by holding that "when Tokyo sneezes, Wall Street catches a cold."
Not long after, the Japanese miracle ended, the stock-and-real-estate markets crashed, and that Asian country fell into a funk known as the "Lost Decade" - a misnomer, since the economic malaise that's lasted virtually ever since is actually more than 20 years long.

Latin America Looks to Strengthen U.S. Trade Relations and Step Back From China
The United States has long referred to Latin America as its "backyard", and held a strong economic influence on its southern neighbors.
But someone else is moving in.
China's trade with Latin American countries has surged over the past few years, weakening the region's economic relationship with the United States. Now some of those nations - especially Brazil - want to strengthen U.S. ties to reduce their dependence on the world's second-largest economy.

China's Five-Year Economic Plan Calls For Slower Growth
China will take steps to cool off its red-hot economy in the next five years largely by increasing domestic consumption and de-emphasizing exports, Premier Wen Jiabao announced in an online chat with the country's citizens on Sunday.
Wen, China's leading economic official, said the government's official target for average gross domestic product (GDP) growth over the next five years will be reduced to 7% annually, down from a target of 7.5% in the past half decade.
China needs to slow economic growth to curb soaring food and housing prices and to restructure its economy, even as most developed economies around the globe struggle to sustain expansion.

Global Investing Strategies: A "Lightning-Round" Look at U.S. Stocks, the Dollar, Inflation and China
If you're a regular Money Morning reader, then you know that, d uring my appearances on national television or when I'm doing media interviews around the world, I frequently participate in something called a "lightning round " - a rapid-fire interview technique in which the announcer (and sometimes even audience members) run through a list of questions in rapid-fire order.
It's a technique that really puts you on the proverbial "hot seat." But I actually enjoy it: It forces you to think on your feet - which appeals to the former trader in me - and allows you to run through a bunch of topics in a very short stretch. In one way or another, each of these topics deals with global investing strategies.
I thought you might enjoy - and perhaps even find useful - a "highlight reel" of some of the best lightning-round questions that I've received in recent weeks, both in front of the camera and during the informal discussions that follow the presentations and broadcasts.
And we'll start with the topic that seems to be one of the most popular global investing strategies topics right now - gold.
To see what Money Morning's Fitz-Gerald sees for stocks, the U.S. dollar and inflation, please read on...

China's Trade Surplus Goal Signals It's Time To Dance With the Dragon
China's economic model has long been dependent on exports. Over the past several decades, the country has been the world's manufacturing floor, turning the "Made in China" stamp into a common fixture of goods sold in the United States and Europe.
But now China has made a new goal: It will double its imports by 2015, reducing the trade surplus to zero and releasing itself from an export-reliant economy. Beijing this year made this goal a key part of China's 12th Five Year Plan.
This bold new target represents a major shift in the balance of global trade and a new paradigm for which the United States is not prepared, according to Money Morning Chief Investment Strategist Keith Fitz-Gerald.
"The West needs to realize that the United States is dangerously close to being completely irrelevant to the Chinese growth model," Fitz-Gerald said in an interview. "China will not live and die by U.S. demand."

China's Yuan Policy will be the Source of Much Discussion, but Little Change During President Hu's Visit
It's unlikely U.S. President Barack Obama will make much headway in his efforts to influence China's yuan policy when he meets with Chinese President Hu Jintao in Washington this week. President Hu made that abundantly clear on Sunday when he rejected U.S. arguments that allowing the yuan to appreciate against the dollar would help the government in Beijing tame inflation.
In response to written questions from The Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post, Hu said he favors greater cooperation with the United States on economic issues but he called the present U.S. dollar-dominated currency system a "product of the past," the newspapers reported on their Web sites.
The Chinese president said his government is fighting inflation with a package of policies, including interest rate increases, and that rising prices can "hardly be the main factor in determining the exchange rate policy," according to a transcript of the answers.

China Monetary Policy in Focus as Reserves and Lending Surge
China's foreign-exchange reserves climbed to a world record $2.85 trillion last quarter as bank lending continued to exceed the government's annual target, putting more pressure on the central bank to increase borrowing costs to dampen down liquidity and tame inflation.
China's foreign reserves jumped by $199 billion in the fourth quarter, a much larger increase than economists expected. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) may need to raise benchmark interest rates, boost reserve requirements for lenders and allow faster yuan appreciation, as a result, according to economists from Standard Chartered Plc and Credit Agricole CIB.
"All eyes are going to be on what new policies the central bank can bring to the table,"Jinny Yan, a Shanghai-based economist at Standard Chartered told Bloomberg News. "But there's still going to be a lot of excess liquidity in the market in the first half of the year."

2011 China Outlook: The Red Dragon Takes Its Next Step Forward
If the United States has a growth problem, China has just the opposite. The world's second-largest economy is set to grow 9-10% this year, building on its strong rebound from the global financial crisis.
Furthermore, Beijing is determined to accelerate China's transition toward a more domestically based economy, while stabilizing prices and cutting government waste.
So in addition to strong growth numbers, investors can expect more disciplined and responsible economic development.

Progress Made on U.S.-China Trade, but Currency Roadblock Remains
The United States and China this week wrapped up a two-day meeting on trade that was aimed at cooling rising tensions between the two nations. Still, despite the progress, currency valuations and trade tariffs will continue to be a fixture of both countries' foreign policies.
The U.S. trade deficit with China this year could top $270 billion, surpassing the 2008 record of $268 billion. U.S. policymakers blame China's undervalued currency and government subsidies for the imbalance. China's disregard for intellectual property rights and bias towards its own domestic companies are also major points of contention.
In a rare show of conciliation, China during Wednesday's trade talks agreed to loosen some of its trade restrictions and better enforce intellectual-property rights on the Mainland -especially to curtail rampant software piracy that costs software makers an estimated $7.9 billion a year in lost revenue.

Chinese IPOs Making Waves in the Market, but Beware of Bubbles
Record fundraising activity in the market for initial public offerings (IPOs) is pushing valuations for Chinese companies to sky-high levels, raising concerns about a possible bubble.
IPOs are likely to raise more than $300 billion for issuers worldwide in 2010, exceeding the previous record of $295 billion in 2007, despite the sluggish economic recovery in Western markets.
In the first 11 months of 2010, IPOs worldwide already raised $255.3 billion in 1,199 deals, according to a "Year-end Global IPO Update" report from Ernst & Young.
And the red-hot Asian markets, led by China, continued to lead the recovery, raising the most capital ever. Asian issuers have raised $164.5 billion so far this year - already surpassing the $98.2 billion raised in the peak fundraising year of 2006 and accounting for 64% of total global IPO value so far in 2010.
That's more than four times the $40 billion in IPOs completed by the second-ranked North American market. Europe was third, raising $32.8 billion, far outdistancing the Middle East and Africa's $5 billion. Read More...

Psych Ward AU Part 2/2 [Part One] - During his stay in the psych ward of the hospital, Stiles father, and his friends all do the very best that they can to try and bring Stiles back, but the young man remains despondent and distant, his grip on reality slipping every day…until Danny starts to visit him. There's something about Danny's patience with Stiles, the way that he'll just sit there in silence if that's what Stiles needs, the way that he gently brushes his hand over Stiles' shoulder when he stands to leave, that starts to bring the young man back to reality. When Stiles is released, the first thing he does is go to Danny's window, and Danny couldn't be happier to see him.

It's a warm Saturday afternoon and the AFP has arrived in Folkston, GA for the 9th annual "Folkston Rail Watch." Minutes after we step out of the car, I'm greeted by Dixie McGurn, the former mayor of Folkston.
"Hello," she says. "Ya'll must be the boys from National Geographic."
"Well, umm..yes," I stammered, surprised that she recognized us. I went on to try to explain that we weren't exactly from N.G., just sponsored by them through a small grant (we always have this problem).
But before I could finish, Dixie continued, "Oh, and you'll be having lunch with Ms. Jackson, correct?"
Now I was really surprised. Was this woman our media liaison–or better yet, the very first AFP stalker? Sadly, though, none of those were true.
As Dixie walked away, she added, "Be sure to stop by my store just up the block and get yourselves some free ice cream!"
I realized then that we were in the Georgia equivalent of Mayberry, and this was the kind of place where everyone knows everyone, and your business is their business.
Just a week before, we never thought we'd be in Folkston, GA, watching trains go by. One day while driving down the Interstate, I had the mental image of these guys in Japan who stand at the edge of train platforms with video and analog cameras (I spent a year teaching English there). I vaguely knew that these people were train hobbyists, but I never knew the details of their pastime or what drew them to have such a fascination with trains. It was with that flashback to Japan, that I started wondering if such groups existed in the U.S. They had to, I figured. That night I jumped on the wonderful world-wide web and searched for "train watching festival." Wouldn't you know, the first thing I came across was the Folkston Rail Watch. Amazingly, though, the date read April 4th 2009. It was the next weekend! What providence!
Perhaps the most serendipitous event from that weekend was our lunch appointment with Ms. Jackson. On our way down to Folkston, we received a call from Andrew's aunt, Susan. She was speaking with her neighbor one day and mentioned our scheduled trip to Folkston. It turns out that Susan's neighbor was from Folkston, and her mother, Ms. Jackson, still lived there. She encouraged us to give her a call, noting that she would probably love to show us around town and have us over for lunch. We took the chance, gave her a call, and lo and behold, ended up with a lunch appointment for 12:30 pm, two blocks from the train tracks, just behind the Dairy Queen.
Ms. Jackson whipped up an amazing meal for us and filled the table with those good ol' Southern side dishes–baked beans, cole slaw, barbecue, rolls, potato salad, and, last but not least, sweet tea. Ooh boy, it felt good to be back in the South! She was a woman of real presence and opinion who proved it with her stories of raising seven kids, being the wife of the town doctor, and living in this very house for sixty years. After lunch, she put our leftovers in a bag and drove us back to the rails. Ms. Jackson didn't stick around for too long, though–she'd seen enough trains in Folkston.
The "watching" area was spread out down the tracks about 500 yards, marked by a smattering of people sitting in lawn chairs and individuals standing by their tripods and video cameras. Rail watchers have designated this section of tracks as the "Folkston Funnel," because almost all the trains that run in and out of Florida have to go through Folkston. On a good day 75 trains pass through this sleepy town. The town is proud of it. Almost every store on the main street was named with words related to trains like "The Whistlin' Dixie." The city posters hanging from the lamp posts had images of CSX trains, and there was even a brand new train mural on the side of the town's most prominent building.
The events that sunny morning got off to a pretty slow start. It was almost an hour after we arrived before we saw the first train come by. I learned that day that train watching is about as slow, and requires as much patience, as fishing. There doesn't seem to be much skill in watching trains, but there are tools that help one "track" them down. Some people at the festival used scanners. They're like CB's, but you can only listen to what the train conductors are saying, and not talk back. The other popular device was a computer program that was essentially a hacked version of the train schedules. The user can select a certain area of the country, and see the trains in "live-view." Before a train would roll through Folkston, the guys drooling over their PCs already knew exactly what kind of train it was, where it was coming from, and what time it was going to arrive. And what happens when a train does come by? Well, some people take pictures or video; others write down the train number; and some just watch it go by.
The more we observed the rail watching folks, the more we realized this was a true community of friends. Unlike most hobbies and sports, there is no competition in watching trains. In Folkston, the train watching community has formed around Marvin "Cookie" Williams. He arrived in Folkston in 1973 and has since then turned Folkston into the Southeastern mecca for train watching. He's got an interesting story, but you can hear about some of it in our video. Despite the family of folks who come to watch trains in Folkston every year, I also noticed a large number of watchers who didn't really congregate or take part in the official events of the festival. They had pulled their cars up to the tracks, sat on a lawn chairs, and watched trains go by all day. They didn't talk to others; they didn't join the evening cook-out. You might say they are soloists. I suppose it's like fishing. You can go out with friends, or go by yourself. But whatever way you choose, it's pretty hard to lie about the size of a train.

Batum is going to have to play well. We need to constantly switch up the D on Dirk and Nic will be in that rotation. Patty can always speed up the game. Sometimes he will give us momentum and that is what we need. I'd like to see Roy get a chance. If he scores double digits we will win.

Small Jungle Gym
Good Questions
Q: I'm looking for a small, attractive jungle gym to squeeze into the corner of our backyard. Have you seen anything along these lines that would be suitable for a vigorous pair of 2- and 4-year-old sisters?
Sent by Ann
Editor: A great question to kick off Outdoor Play month! What ideas can you send Ann's way?

All you need to know is at cedarworks.com. I kid you not. I have the world's smallest backyard and I was able to configure a set that fit. The online tool is great - start with the Revelry box tower (smallest support base available), add a swing ladder a labber or tower to hold up the other end...and go from there with accessories. If you have no room for swing clearance (6-8' each side), you can do a 4' x 2' base tower with yardarms for trapeze-type swings, ropes, poles, slides, etc.
Small, sturdy, nice looking. The Serendipity sets are gorgeous, but bigger and costlier.
Good luck!
Thanks for the cedarworks recommendation! I actually have a catalog from them, but they looks giant and overwhelming. I really appreciate your tips.

Pumpkin: Fall's All-Star Fruit
Guest blogger JJ Virgin: This time of year, everything seems to transform quickly. The summer sound of kids' uninhibited laughter as they run through sprinklers gives way to the sound of school bells; leaves turn from lush green to beautiful shades of orange, red and yellow; entire aisles in grocery stores have been taken over by sugar-laden Halloween candy ... and pumpkins are everywhere!

Sony Pictures the Latest Studio to Make Broadway Push
By Patrick Healy, 8/23/12
Sony Pictures Entertainment has signed a five-year deal with the Broadway producer Scott Sanders ("Evita," "The Color Purple") to mount stage versions of the studio's films, with their first project being a musical adaptation of the 1982 Dustin Hoffman comedy "Tootsie." The deal, which was announced on Thursday, represents the latest move by several Hollywood film studios to capitalize on theatergoers' appetite – particularly tourists visiting New York – for musicals based on movies or books; most Broadway musicals these days are adaptations, like the top-grossing shows "Wicked" and "The Lion King" and new hits like the Tony Award winner "Once" and the Disney musical "Newsies."
Review: The Odd Life of Timothy Green
By Roger Ebert,
"The Odd Life of Timothy Green," a warm and lovely fantasy, is the kind of full-bodied family film being pushed aside in favor of franchises and slam-bang confusion. On a picture-postcard farm in the middle of endlessly rolling hills where it is always Indian Summer, a lovable boy comes into the life of a childless couple, and brings along great joy and wisdom.
Disney tale reimagines an ancient fariy-tale trope for modern Middle America
By John DeFore,
A fairy tale about parenting that stays kid-friendly without completely glossing over the darker themes of its premise, Peter Hedges's The Odd Life of Timothy Green unsurprisingly concludes that anyone who really wants a child should have one, but it finds time along the way to warn future parents just how bad at it they might be.
'Evita', others to hit the road

Loretta Lynn taps Zooey Deschanel for 'Coal Miner's' musical
By Jamie Wetherbe,
Today's secret word is delight -- especially for fans of Paul Reubens' iconic man-child, Pee-wee Herman, who has reemerged in an adaptation of the stage show that started it all almost 30 years ago. It's a trip down memory lane for many and an introduction for a new generation to the multilevel style of humor the ersatz kiddie show provided in the CBS series that sprang from the original production of "The Pee-wee Herman Show" at the Groundlings Theater in 1981.
You must love Che
NY Post,
Last night, "Evita" returned after a 30-year absence from Broadway. The wait was worth it: This is a big, fat, juicy blockbuster of a show.
Naturally, everybody's flipping out over the hot new bombshell in town. Usually we mean the actress in the title role, but this time it's the guy who plays the narrator: Ricky Martin — you may have heard of him?
And does he deliver! Despite being vocally underpowered at times, Martin is a supernova of charisma in the key part of Che, a Zelig-like Everyman always hovering on the side of the action. (A country where every man looks like Ricky Martin must get a lot of tourists.)
Evita's New Man
Vanity Fair,
Evita debuted in 1976, not as a bona fide musical but as a "concept album"—a series of songs thematically linked. Its theme? The upward spiral of María Eva Duarte de Perón, the radio actress who rose from nothing to become the beloved First Lady of Argentina. Two years later, in London's West End, Evita premiered as a show, and in 1979 it opened on Broadway. This month, the acclaimed London production of Evita, directed by Michael Grandage and starring the Argentinean actress Elena Roger, hits Broadway with a new Che: the pop phenom Ricky Martin.
Jackman to Try to Work His Box Office Magic as Houdini
By Patrick Healy, 1/4/12
The Pied Piper was nowhere to be heard, and Santa Claus wouldn't be coming to town for a few more weeks, but something irresistible had drawn a small crowd to the West Fourth Street basketball courts in Greenwich Village on a recent Thursday morning. Huddled in groups of two and three, a few dozen men and women in their 20s and 30s glanced at one another and at their smartphones, rereading the Twitter and Foursquare messages that directed them here, waiting for something to happen.

'The Odd Life of Timothy Green' Trailer Released!
By The Huffington Post, 10/25/11
It's a heartbreaking reality that some loving couples cannot conceive a child, no matter how much medical assistance they receive. In the altered reality of Disney films, however, there's an option when science proves incapable: a wish box and some magic.
Candy-Colored Bow-Tied Redemption
By Dave Itzkoff, 10/28/10
Luckiest Boy in the World
By Jesse Green 8/22/10
Performers who make a name for themselves in the guise of an alter ego usually have a short shelf life. They tend to become camp curiosities within minutes of achieving cultural saturation. But Paul Reubens avoided the fate of Carrot Top, Andrew "Dice" Clay, Larry the Cable Guy, and their ilk, who, if they remain familiar, do so in the manner of a mortifying ex. Reubens survived on his own terms because his Pee-wee Herman was a much savvier invention, utterly specific visually (snug glen-plaid suit, red bow tie, white loafers) but otherwise built on a series of childlike ambiguities (hostile or silly? gay or straight? wise or innocent?) that he steadfastly refused to resolve or even acknowledge.
I Meant to Do That: 'The Pee-wee Herman Show' Coming to Broadway
By Dave Itzkoff, 5/20/10
The next time you hear Pee-wee Herman snidely ask, "I know you are but what am I?," the correct answer is: Broadway-bound. On Thursday, the producers announced that "The Pee-wee Herman Show," the original stage comedy that set that manic man-child character portrayed by Paul Reubens on a path to cult stardom, will transfer to Broadway in the fall for a six-week run.

Due to strong advance demand, 'Pee-wee' shifts start
By David Rooney,
10/6/09 (Subscription Required)
Pee-wee's playhouse just got bigger. Due to strong advance demand, the upcoming return of Paul Reubens' "The Pee-wee Herman Show" has moved venues, switching to Club Nokia @ LA Live for a four-week run, Jan. 12-Feb. 7. Scott Sanders ("The Color Purple") has joined the show as lead producer, presenting with Goldenvoice and Bud Light, in association with Jared Geller and David J. Foster.
Peter Hedges to go 'Green' for Disney
By Borys Kit,
Peter Hedges has signed on to write and direct "The Odd Life of Timothy
Green," a modern-day fable for Disney. "Green" is based on an idea by Ahmet Zappa, who will produce with Scott Sanders. Disney is keeping plot details under tight wraps, though it is understood to
be a high priority for the studio as well as very personal to Zappa.
'Color Purple' took a long road to the Academy
By Howard Shapiro,
The Broadway know-it-alls told Scott Sanders that a musical of Alice Walker's beloved novel The Color Purple would never see the color green. Forget it, they said. You can't raise the money. Black themes don't pay on Broadway. You won't even get a theater for it. Sanders never listened. He was too busy listening to the book. When he read it, he heard music - the music of the American rural South, of a black experience, of the theater. The sort of music that, taken together, found its way onto the Broadway stage of The Color Purple, whose first national tour arrives Tuesday at the Academy of Music and stays through July 13.
Disney buys pitch from Mike Rich - 'Rookie' writer sells true 'Parent Trap'-ish story
By Michael Fleming,
6/13/08 (Subscription Required)
Walt Disney Pictures has acquired an untitled pitch by Mike Rich.
Studio and writer were vague on the idea, allowing only that it's based on a true story with elements of "Sleepless in Seattle" and "The Parent Trap."
Deal brings Rich back to Disney, where he scripted "The Rookie" and "Secretariat," about the 1973 Triple Crown-winning race horse. Rich's last credit was "The Nativity Story." The film will be produced by Scott Sanders, with Mara Jacobs aboard as executive producer.
Scott Sanders Productions to produce new Houdini Musical
Arts, Briefly - By Campbell Robertson,
A musical about Harry Houdini sounds intriguing, but even more intriguing is its team: Scott Sanders, who produced "The Color Purple," and David Rockwell, the architect and set designer, are producing "Houdini: An Original Musical." Danny Elfman, an ex-member of the band Oingo Boingo, who wrote the "Simpsons" and "Desperate Housewives" themes and a lot of music for Tim Burton movies, is doing the score; David Yazbek ("Dirty RottenScoundrels") is writing the lyrics; and Kurt Andersen, the novelist, journalist, radio host and occasional playwright, is writing the book. Jack O¹Brien is slated to direct "Houdini," which may open on Broadway in spring 2010.

Tastemakers: Performing Arts
By Joshua Lipton,
Over eight years, Sanders, 50, worked on bringing "The Color Purple" to Broadway, searching for the right investors and ultimately raising $11 million to fund the show. It paid off. The play, which opened on Dec. 1, 2005, grossed the second most of any production on Broadway in 2006. More than 650,000 fans came to check out the production, which managed to attract a new demographic. In 2006, African-Americans regularly comprised at least 50% of the audience, many for their first time seeing a Broadway show, says Sanders. (more)
'Color Purple' Proves Black Themes
Can Make Green on Great White Way
By Brooks Barnes, 12/1/06
To the casual observer, "The Color Purple" on Broadway seemed like a cinch. The Alice Walker novel won the Pulitzer Prize. The 1985 Steven Spielberg movie grossed over $100 million domestically and garnered 11 Academy Award nominations. And the musical arrived on Broadway with Oprah Winfrey on its marquee as a producer.
But it was initially greeted with upturned noses by many Broadway powerbrokers. It tells the story of two sisters who have an unbreakable bond despite lives marred by rape, domestic abuse and poverty. Reviews were tepid. With fluffy offerings such as "Hairspray" and "Mamma Mia" dominating the Great White Way, some investors questioned whether audiences would embrace a musical based on such a gritty story.
What's more, some Broadway investors believed that an all-black cast with no name stars would have difficulty drawing the core theater audience any mega-musical needs to be financially sound: white, middle-age women. While Broadway is fairly healthy -- attendance jumped sharply last year -- regular ticket buyers remain a fairly limited bunch.
Today, producers of the $11 million musical version of "The Color Purple" plan to announce that the show has recouped its investment. The show's success demonstrates that Broadway can do a better job at attracting diverse audiences. (more)

By Susan Berfield,
When Scott Sanders set out to turn The Color Purple into a Broadway musical, he made two critical decisions. He would approach Alice Walker, the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning 1982 novel, himself to ask for her blessing. But he wouldn't ever appear to be seeking the endorsement of Oprah Winfrey, who had played the sassy, tough Sofia in Steven Spielberg's 1985 movie version of the book and had later declared the experience one of the greatest of her life. With Oprah, you wait for her to come to you. (more)

Top firms losing out to upstarts in social media sphere
Readers' comments (24)
This is actually a brilliant tool for measuring consumer interaction and no surprise to see QualitySolicitors doing so well seeing as they appear to be the only ones doing anything in that market (where are Co-op Legal and Irwin Mitchel to be seen - in QS's shadow online it would appear). However, to compare their online influence against Clifford Chance really is chalk and cheese. QS is legal services for middle england - who love facebook and twitter etc. CC is for corporates who probably get fired for being on twitter and facebook. So, well done QS - just what you should be doing - but it is the other consumer brands and high street firms that should be worried, not Clifford Chance!

Rather more curiously, why does that monitor appear to be wearing a shirt?
Whether we like it or not social networking is here to stay and its use will get measured and reported on. Just get used to it. After all it is less than 15 years since the august Professor Richard Susskind was reported to the Law Society (for bringing the profession into disrepute) for daring to suggest that one day email would become the standard medium of communication between lawyer and client.
I'm with Brian Inkster on this one http://thetimeblawg.com/2011/08/03/uk-law-firms-with-klout-%E2%80%93-a-clearer-picture/
Social media is not about corporate brands (nobody wants to talk to a company), but about the growth of powerful personal brands who through their high level of connectivity to both other people and information can act in a far more agile and effective way than traditional bureaucratic organisations. Quality Solicitors is a franchise made up of hundreds of people, but myself and several other individual lawyers have a far better online presence than they do, and to the extent it matters, a higher Klout score.
Wonder how the Lawyer put these figures together (and why?). Actual Klout scores seem to differ dranatically from those calculated and disclosed by Brian Inkster!
Does anyone have a link to the marketing report? I'm interested in finding out more from the company that put these stats together.
Why does the computer in the picture have shoulders?
Expect Dickinson Dees to hastily get some work experience kid to write "an app" so they can try and get a mention next year
I find it quite odd to see so much hostility to a form of networking from a sector that values networking so highly?
That's all these channels are. How many of you have wasted hours and hours in dreary rooms drinking warm wine wine, with a scruffy name-badge pinned to your lapel then gone home with two business cards of people you never wish to speak to again?
Used properly, these channels are a vastly more efficient way of presenting your authority and expertise to people who really matter. You simply have to learn how.
Now for a blatant plug: I'm your man for that.
See what i did there? Used a social medium to network.
And by the way, why do so many people post anonymously?

PowerPoint - Oct. 9, 2007
October 9, 2007
"We will not neglect the house of our God."
--Nehemiah 10:39
Have you ever noticed that God always has a next step of dedication and growth for us? We as Christians are to constantly learn more, love more, be more like God, and grow beyond where we are today.
The Christian life is really a series of new beginnings. That's what makes being a Christian so interesting and exhilarating. We should be excited about our next opportunity to serve, lead, grow, and follow God through another open door.
But be careful! There's a danger here.
It's easy to rest on our success and become stagnant after reaching a new level of growth. We need to be aware of what I call the perils of the plateau. That's the danger of settling for where we are and becoming stagnant, rather than moving onward and upward for the cause of Christ.
Nehemiah saw this danger, which is why he led the people of
We must not, as Nehemiah put it, "neglect the house of our God." Instead, let's continue to look for the next opportunity and not get comfortable, lazy, or satisfied with our current level of spiritual growth. Nothing is worse for a Christian than being dormant and still in our spiritual life.
Have you hit a spiritual plateau, or are you still excited and eager for your next opportunity to grow spiritually? Tell the Lord you want Him to show you the next spiritual mountain to climb. Enjoy the Christian life, and live it to the fullest, without settling or stopping!

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. - Colorado State Senator Greg Brophy stopped in Grand Junction Friday as part of his campaign run for governor.
Brophy spoke to The Mesa County Republican Party at the Bookcliff Country Club during a luncheon.
He said he believes he can rally Colorado Republicans to defeat current Governor Hickenlooper.
"I think I bring a combination of people. I bring the gun guys because I'm a second amendment advocate. I bring the people from rural Colorado who want a voice for them, and I think I can gather up all the people who are just tired of losing because Republicans haven't won statewide on these contested issues in years," said Sen. Brophy.
Sen. Brophy said he plans to make more stops in Mesa County as the election season heats up.

Innovation Week offers a showcase U of S ideas and advances
Innovation Week comes to the University of Saskatchewan from September 16 to 22 with events showcasing the latest ideas and research, from making the electrical grid more efficient and developing cancer therapy tools at the Canadian Light Source, to intellectual property law and veterinary research.
CHESS Interactions conference from September 17 to 20 brings together experts from around the world in computer science, humanities, engineering, education, economics and the social and natural sciences to explore ideas and opportunities for innovative collaboration.

After a spring where millions of acres of farm land went unplanted due to excessive moisture, the crop year in the state is turning out pretty close to average.
That's what North Dakota Ag Commissioner Doug Goehring said today.
Goehring spoke to the local Kiwanis Club.
He says some producers are putting a near-record crop in the bin.
While others are below average because of weather problems.
One hurdle they all face is the sudden drop in commodity prices of the past few months.
(Doug Goehring, ND Ag Commissioner) "A lot of this crop got put in under a different pricing scenario and system so it's a pretty expensive operating cost associated with this particular crop year and now the market's going down. When you have the market imploding it gets people nervous because they definitely need production now just to stay at their cost of production."
Goehring says the biggest problem he's heard lately is that many farmers are still trying to finish harvest, having been delayed by a wet October.
