The printing press was not included in the sale of Tracy Press Inc. and its three newspapers — the Tracy Press, the Patterson Irrigator and the Press-Banner in Santa Cruz County — in U.S. Bankruptcy Court Eastern District of California in Sacramento.
On Oct. 10, Chief Judge Christopher M. Klein approved a purchase bid of $425,000 by Will Fleet and Ralph Alldredge.
John Wilson, pressroom foreman, said Tuesday, Nov. 20, that the final printing day was "sad and somber" for him and his three employees.
After the final printing run, the press was dismantled Friday, Nov. 16, and taken by truck from the Tracy Press, 145 W. 10th St., on Monday, Nov. 19.
"Friday, when the guys came to get their checks, I think that's when reality set in for everyone," said Wilson as he stood in the empty press warehouse. "I tried to keep it humorous to keep from getting too awfully depressed, but then you walk into this and it's very depressing."
Starting this week, printing operations are being outsourced to the Galt Herald, just south of Sacramento.
Fleet said the Tracy Press will still be delivered on Fridays, and the size and format of the paper will remain the same.
He resigned as publisher of the Fresno Bee effective Oct. 31 and will serve with Alldredge as co-publisher of the three newspapers under the new company name Tank Town Media.
Alldredge is also publisher of the San Andreas-based Calaveras Enterprise.
The Galt Herald, owned by the Herburger family, also prints the Enterprise.
"We are pleased to partner with our friends at the Galt Herald," Fleet said. "Both Ralph and I have known the Herburger family for many years."
The sale of Tracy Press Inc. by members of the Matthews family — which acquired the Press in 1943 — was finalized on Nov. 12.
According to Wilson, the printing press was sold during a separate auction to a bidder in Newport Beach, who specializes in reselling used printing presses.
He said it's increasingly difficult to maintain the economic viability of operating a printing press. He cited several reasons, including increased costs related to environmental and government oversight of the printing process.
"I have five or six agencies I have to answer to, because in California things are so heavily regulated," he said. "Many years ago, the Bay Area had 12 to 15 printing presses, and now there are maybe two. Downsizing and consolidation are not new things in the printing industry."
According to an article in the Press on Oct. 26, 1912, the first printing press — a Model Five Mergenthaler Linotype — was delivered to the Press that week. The following week, once the equipment was installed, the Press was printed Nov. 2 in the city of Tracy for the first time.
The first issue of the Tracy Press was published April 2, 1898.
In 1961, Wilson said the Tracy Press was one of the first companies in California to install an offset printing press, a three-unit Goss Suburban. It was able to print a 20-page publication — eight pages in color and 12 all-black pages.
Ten years later, a five-unit Goss Community press was installed. More units were added to the press, which raised its capacity to the current-day 48-page publication — a possible 16 color and 32 black pages. The Goss Community press installed in 1971 was the 29th press of its kind sold in the world by Goss.
On the press in use until Nov. 16, Wilson said that it took just under two hours to print the Press' circulation of about 20,000 papers.
With more than 50 years at the Press, Wilson said he remembered the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2011, as resulting in one of the busiest printing days.
"Everyone came out with a special edition that day, including the Tracy Press," he said. "Things were really busy that day, and everything seemed to move so fast. It was an interesting time to be working (on the press)."
The press also printed about 30 publications — mostly ethnic publications — for various groups in the Central Valley.
Wilson, who plans to retire Dec. 1, said he is trying to use his connections in the printing industry to find two of his workers a job at a press in the Bay Area, while the third worker has already moved on to a press in Manteca.
The workers will be cleaning the press warehouse until their last official day Dec. 1.
"These are good guys who work hard and have been good to me, so I want to see them get something good," he said.

This goes back a few years now, but I still remember the shock. After a long stint as a resident of the Midwest, I moved to the Phoenix area in the 1990s. Having previously only driven through our 48th state to visit the Grand Canyon, I didn't know what to expect.
But I knew that Arizona's capital was situated on the edge of the Sonoran Desert, was populated with more cactus plants than people (so I thought) and received only about 8 inches of rain a year—in a good year. (In contrast, other Sun Belt cities are far wetter—Miami gets 58 inches of precipitation a year, Atlanta gets 50 inches and even Dallas gets 34 inches of rain annually).
Imagine my surprise, then, when I drove through my new neighborhood in Tempe just south of Phoenix and saw green lawns, shade trees and lots and lots of flowers and shrubbery surrounding the houses, apartments and commercial buildings. Of course, all this greenery was being watered relentlessly against the 100-degree heat, with just about every piece of property seemingly hooked up to automatic sprinkler systems that most mornings would collectively drown out the traffic noise.
I had to ask: Why is everyone watering their lawns and landscaping? I thought this was a desert. Where's the water coming from?
The short answer was that years ago, much of the valley where Greater Phoenix now sprawls—and I mean sprawls; the municipal area encompasses more than 16,000 square miles—used to be planted in citrus and cotton. Both of those crops, obviously, require immense amounts of irrigation, which was sourced primarily from underground wells and municipal systems that pulled water from nearby rivers originating in the state's more mountainous central and northern regions. When the Central Arizona Project, a massive pipeline that diverted water from the Colorado River, finally reached Phoenix in the 1980s, it coincided with a massive influx of people and the subsequent transformation of what used to be farm fields into endless red tile-roofed, stucco-sided housing developments.
Those houses, and the tens of thousands of new arrivals living in them, actually use a lot less water per acre than cotton plants, and by the 1990s, Phoenix allowed residents to plant trees, grow gardens and put in luxurious green lawns that looked like they were imported from a Chicago suburb. Who cares? There's plenty of water!
Only there isn't.
Runnin' on empty
As the ironically named author Jonathan Waterman documents in his book, "Running Dry," the Colorado River no longer flows all the way to the ocean, where it formerly emptied into the Gulf of California separating Baja California from the Mexican mainland. Instead, once-mighty waterway ends in a desolate series of stagnant pools, dusty bottomland and dried-up delta marshes. Thanks to irrigation projects and municipal water diversions, there's hardly any volume of water left when the Colorado completes its 1,500-mile journey from the Rockies to the sea.

There are unlimited over-the-counter licenses for cow and either-sex archery elk, bull elk in the 2nd and 3rd rifle seasons, either-sex elk in the plains, either-sex archery pronghorn, and doe and either-sex whitetail deer. These licenses are restricted to certain units and manners of take. For more information, please see the maps in the 2014 big game brochure (pages 27, 30-33 and 46).

According to Bartow County Sheriff's Office Public Information Officer Sgt. Jonathan Rogers, a small, plastic bottle-type device was tossed into a trash bin outside the theater on North Tennessee Street about 5:30 p.m. The homemade explosive detonated inside the can, causing no damage to the trash can or building.
Cartersville and Bartow County fire departments and BCSO units, who were still on scene at 9 p.m. Thursday, responded to the call, roping off the area with crime scene tape.
CFD Battalion Chief Mark Bagley said the Georgia Bureau of Investigation was called in to assist on the case.
No one was injured in the explosion.
Kitchen fire damages home
BCFD crews responded Thursday morning about 7 a.m. to a fire at a residence in White.
According to the department, stations 1, 5 and 13 responded to the single-story structure at 100 Old Furnace Road. The kitchen and living room suffered damage, $20,000 in property and $5,000 in contents.
The cause of the fire is believed to be electrical.
BCFD stations 3, 9, 11 and 12 also were called to a Plainview Drive residence Thursday after a power strip shorted out.
No damage was done to the residence.

So you've picked out the perfect pair of headphones, but they sound a little flat and quiet coming from your computer's crappy built-in audio. Here's a little gadget (or set of gadgets) that will make those headphones sound much better.
What a DAC and Amp Do
When you play music from your computer or mobile device, it goes through a Digital-Analog Converter (DAC) and an amplifier. The DAC converts the audio from a digital signal to an analog one (obviously), and the amplifier is what sends it to your headphones. The problem is, most devices don't have very good DACs or amps built in. So, if you get a nice high-end pair of headphones, you may still be getting less than ideal sound from your computer or MP3 player. That's where an external DAC and amp come in. (If you're just using the default iPod headphones, turn back now. A DAC isn't going to help you at all.)
You can buy a DAC and amp separately, or buy a combo unit that contains both. It'll improve your sound in a couple ways:
- A DAC eliminates interference that your onboard sound card may experience inside your computer and ensures you're getting the best possible sound quality.
- An amplifier boosts the volume of the sound, which is particularly useful for higher impedance headphones (headphones above 32Ω) that will sound quiet through a regular headphone jack.
- Amplifiers will often come with other features, like bass boost or other equalizer functions, that allow you to alter the sound.
Note that you can only get the full benefit of a DAC/amp combo with your desktop or laptop computer, via USB or SPDIF. While you can get DAC/amp combos for iPods and other mobile devices, the DAC half of the device won't actually work. Only the amp half will. This is still great for giving your sound a boost in volume if it's coming out too quiet, but just know that the DAC won't work—so if you only plan on using it with an iPod, you don't need a DAC or combo, just a mobile amp.
Which DAC and Amp to Buy
You have a lot of different DACs to choose from, though the Fiio line is extremely popular, and budget-friendly (not to mention the one with which I have experience). Here are a few of the more popular Fiio models, and which one you should buy based on their strengths:
- The $25 Fiio E6 isn't a DAC at all, but just an amp, designed to be connected to portable devices like the iPod (through an adapter sold separately). It's perfect for those that don't want to spend a lot of extra money, but who's headphones could use a bit of extra volume. It also has settings for boosting the bass and mids, if you're looking for a bit of extra power in one of those areas.
- The $88 Fiio E7 is designed for both mobile devices and computers. It can either connect to your iPod as an amp or your computer as a DAC/amp combo, making it a good all-around choice. It isn't filled with extra features, but does have a rather saucy bass boost knob for you dubstep nuts out there.
- The $75 Fiio E10—my current DAC/amp of choice—is designed to connect to computers via USB. It has better sound quality than the E7 at a comparable price point, but it doesn't work on mobile devices. Again, though, many argue that portable amps aren't necessary, so unless you find your headphones are too quiet on your iPod, you may be better off just going with the E10.
- The $150 Fiio E17 combines the sound quality of the E10 with the portability and feature set of the E7. As such, it's perfect for those that need an amp on the go, a higher quality DAC on their computer, and are willing to spend a bit more money to get them.
Of course, these aren't the only models out there, and Fiio isn't the only brand that makes DACs and amps. They are, however, some of the most popular and most affordable (but they are a bit cheaply made—you get what you pay for).
If you want something a bit better (and more costly), Audioengine's DACs are quite popular, and many of you have mentioned NwAvGuy's ODAC and O2 amplifiers in the comments. If all you need is a DAC, the Behringer UCA202 is very cheap (only $30). You can see more suggestions in our DAC Hive Five. I merely use Fiio as an example to show the different variations you'll find in a line of DACs and amps.
You get the idea, though: which one you buys will depend on your headphones, the device you're using to play the audio, and your personal preferences. Before you buy, read reviews and check out forums like Head-Fi for more detailed information on each model, especially when pertaining to a specific set of headphones. I've also found the Audiophile subreddit over at Reddit to be full of especially helpful and honest people. As long as you do your research, you should end up with something that takes your headphones from good to great with little effort.
Do you have any experience with DACs and amps? Share your thoughts, findings, and other opinions in the comments below.

GARRETT GOMEZ, BLIND LUCK, Winner: "I wasn't happy (with the pace), but I didn't have much ground to make up. I just couldn't get her tucked in exactly the way I wanted. Rafael (Bejarano on St Trinians) kind of pushed me outside of Switch, but then in spots I was able to get behind them and she was traveling okay. She kind of travels pretty much the same whereever she is. The one thing that I was real confident in was that I only had a length to catch up to Switch. So I felt if we turned for home together or me giving her two or three lengths, I could still run her down. She loves to run in the lane and she has a heck of a turn of foot. With the pace being slow like it was, it makes the other horses become more involved, but Switch and (St Trinians) were right in front of me and I felt that those were the two that I had to outrun."
JOEL ROSARIO, SWITCH, Second: "She fired again, but Blind Luck is a pretty good horse. I knew that Blind Luck and St Trinians were behind me and I thought I would be able to outfinish them. She tried hard but I think she was just second best today."
JOE TALAMO, MISS MATCH, Third: "She had an absolutely perfect trip. I made the lead at about the three-sixteenths and I tried to open up on the field. She did, but she just got outrun the last part. She ran a great race."
JERRY HOLLENDORFER, BLIND LUCK, Winner: "I was a little nervous (because of the pace) but I think Garrett (Gomez) was a little bit closer today than he ordinarily would have been. The only thing I said to him before the race was just to try to watch the pace and see what happens. He watched it pretty well and got a good run on them coming for home. We had kind of targeted the Delaware Handicap because it's a big purse, but depending on how everything goes we might wait for Del Mar. I'm not opposed to the synthetic but I think earlier in the year she might not have gotten tracks that she liked and her feet might have been bugging her a little. I think she's 100 percent today. I'm so pleased to have a horse that's lasted like this and kept her enthusiasm for racing."
JOHN SADLER, SWITCH, Second: "I didn't love the ride but I thought the horse ran very well. She's tough all the time. The pace was so slow, I'd have thought he'd be up a little closer. But as I said, she ran very well and you have to give credit to the winner. She'll go for the Clement Hirsch next."
Notes: The $750,000 Delaware Handicap will be run July 16 at Delaware Park…The $300,000 Clement L. Hirsch will be contested Aug. 6 at Del Mar….The win was the first in the Vanity for both Hollendorfer and Gomez.

ALEX SOLIS, TANDA, Winner: "She won today because she's a runner, but I think she's capable of better. Her last race was so impressive. Right when I got to the five-eighth pole I felt we were going kind of slow, so I thought I better get in there and take control of the race and make may own pace. It worked out good for us. I'll fly anywhere to ride her, anytime, any place."
JOEL ROSARIO, SWITCH, Second: "She ran great, but the winner got a better trip inside. I was worried about that because my filly had the outside post. She ran super, but I think the post positions made the difference."
DAN HENDRICKS, TANDA, Winner: "The way he (Solis) rode her, the rail was fine. He moved her up easily on a slow fraction and that's the winning move. Had they gone 21 and change or 22 and he did that, he'd already got beat. She's a very nice filly, I'm very impressed with her. Both the Hollywood Oaks and the Acorn are four weeks (away). It's Belmont weekend, and there's going to be an easy flight there and back with the Belmont horses, so it makes it a lot easier to decide to go to New York for a Grade 1. And what a great progression, from 6 and one-half at Santa Anita to 7 furlongs here to a one turn mile there. That progression couldn't be better. We've wanted to route her for three races, but luckily they didn't give us any options when she won the Santa Paula. I'm leaning toward the Acorn. I don't think today gives us any reason not to go."
NOTES: The win was the first in the Railbird for both Solis and Hendricks….The $300,000 Betfair TVG Acorn will be run on Saturday, June 5 as part of the Belmont Stakes undercard.

Antique Poesy Ring - This and My Heart C. 1700
Traditionally English, the poesy (posey) ring is a band of gold inscribed with an aphorism, saying or thought-provoking poem. These rings have been dated to the Middle Ages and referred to as "resons". During this period the inscription was typically found on the outside of the band or hoop. By the 15th century Renaissance, these jewels were termed poesy (posie) rings and the engraving or lettering was now hidden within the inside of the band and meant to be private and worn next to the skin of the finger.
Scarce now (and frequently reproduced), this type of ring is of high carat gold as in this example with the gold content over 22k yellow gold. Especially wide and heavy, this particular early 18th century poesy ring contains the fine and poignant saying of "This and My Heart" inscribed in Roman capital letters.
Condition: Good; overall wear to the exterior surface as commensurate with age and use.
Measurements: Just shy of 3/16 of an inch (0.46 cm) in width. This antique ring has a weight of 7.5 grams (4.8 dwt).
Size: US 7 (UK N-1/4; Euro 17.25. 55 mm). It is best not to size this ring but if desired our expert jewelers can do so.
Date & Origin: Circa 1700 and is English in origin.

INGLEWOOD, Calif.

We have the Thackery Chesterfield from Anthropologie. We got it in the gray this summer, and while I wouldn't say it was worth full price (we paid $1200), we are really happy with it. A couple of the reviews mention that the cushions are hard. This is true when you first sit on it, but they soften up after just a couple of days of use. I'm sure it depends on your preference, but I find it a million times comfier than our old overstuffed couch.
I LOVE the green on the first one, but I am having a heck of a time finding a cool looking, comfortable, affordable couch that pulls out into a sleeper! I'd love a green one, but a funky green not a neutral sage. Urban Outfitters had a great looking one but all the reviews say it's not that comfortable. Help!
I wish the Pottery Barn chesterfield came in white leather. All of the white leather chesterfields I have found are at least $5k.
That green one is absolutely stunning. Decades looks like an interesting vendor, too - all their sofas are made in the US! Anyone have one of these? I haven't been able to find any online reviews.
Chesterfield Sofa is like saying: sofa sofa or lamp lamp
funny I hate the green one. I love the white one.
I ordered a Decades couch a few weeks ago and it should be arriving soon. I did a post about the order process and customer service, but will have to follow up with how fabulous or not fabulous the sofa actually is.
Thanks, Jae! Would love to read your thoughts once you receive the sofa. Do you have a link to your post about the ordering process?
i have the barocco by zanotta in wht leather....its sexy its art !!
I own one, the Decades furniture is actually made by a company called CoCoCo. They have a much larger selection at their site, www.cococohome.com, I wish I saw it before I ordered from Decades!
The sofa is wonderful nonetheless, nice full cushioning, amazing leather. I love it.
Beth: Just FYI, we offer a Chesterfield sleeper in our 96" length and can do it in any of our upholstery options, including the green above.
My couch finally arrived. I do love it. I posted about it here.
Here's the post on ordering: http://www.designocd.com/2012/09/leather-swatches/
Btw, I second Keith Z's comments. I agree, wish I'd known about the Comfortable Couch Company beforehand, but the Decades couch is wonderful.
Other sofas chesterfield in leather on britishdeco.com.They have many choices of colors and their prices are affordable.
Where are the 2 paintings from in the photo w/ the purple orchid?
Some good looking sofas there and it's always interesting to see other styles from different countries. If you fancy a look at how we Brits make Chesterfields, head over to our stunning new website where you can see your Chesterfield in over 70+ leathers: www.timelesschesterfields.com
Fancy one in fabric? Our sister site www.lovelysofas.co.uk has them covered. Pardon the pun ;0)
I just got the Gordon sofa in black from Home Decorators Collection and it arrived yesterday. I don't know if I'm just spoiled but I was kinda disappointed in the leather. It has a surface texture that reflects too much light, almost making it look brown, and the leather is not soft at all. It is comfortable to sit on but I kept asking my friends, 'do you think this is vinyl?' The website says 'recycled leather'.... Ill learn to like it but I wish I'd saved up for a soft buttery version from Restoration Hardware. Ps the dimensions online imply the measurements of the couch, but that must've been the box. The couch yurned out to be 87" long instead of the listed 91"...
Have a pair of Asquith battered and distressed Chesterfields from Barker and Stonehouse (UK) -They are a Brit classic - my favourite one now is looking decidedly knackered, which I am thrilled about.Have cosied mine up by chucking on reindeer skins and kilim and velvet cushions.
I know this comment was four months ago, but if you're still looking...
Sleepersinseattle.com has a big selection.
It's good to see that these design classics are still being produced all over the world. Some staying true to the classic designs, and lots of fantastic modern twists out there too! We stick the the traditional classic chesterfield at Iconic Interiors, but it's great to see how this British classic has evolved.

Ah, the above was directed at Aristippus. Thanks also to Clayton, I'll check that out as well. The good news is that he's predisposed to look approvingly on the idea of private security contractors. We're long time practical shooting competitors, and live close to Blackwater (now Academi) where we help run a 3-gun competition once a month. He's friendly with some of the contractors who work out of there, as some compete with us and some own MINI Coopers so they come to him for service.
Mises' The Ultimate Foundations of Economic Science.
Based on my own recent experience, I'd argue that this is the best possible introductory work for a person like me (which your friend may or may not be in this respect). I'm a complete beginner, with zero formal background in economics, and this was the first work I was able to finish. Prior to that, I had given up both on Lessons for the Young Economist and Economics in One Lesson.
I had difficulties sustaining my attention on these two works that are usually recommended for beginners, Hazlitt in particular. I found Hazlitt a bit perplexing, as if I didn't really understand things after reading, while Murphy was very clear to me, but for some reason it didn't really capture my interest.
Mises completely blew my mind. Such a rare clarity of thought, yet written in a very plain and accessible language, and with some background in philosophy I could appreciate the way he builds the system, touching on so many interesting arguments in various fields.
As I finished The Ultimate Foundations, I went straight on to Human Action (incidentally, today I finished the first part), aided by Murphy's excellent study guide. Such was the effect of The Ultimate Foundations on me, that I wanted more of that man, I couldn't believe I would actually attempt to read something of the size of Human Action, but that's where it led me for now, I'm taking it nice and slowly and thoroughly enjoying it.
I'm probably still in the phase of initial excitement over having discovered Mises, so I haven't read extensively (yet!), so take my advice for what it's worth, but I think The Ultimate Foundations is a really great turn-on. I started reading it out of general curiosity, and ended up with a whole bunch of ideas I wanted to delve into deeper and learn more about.
Yeah, Ultimate Foundations owns. I need to order Murphy's study guide and restart HA from the beginning to make sure I'm getting its true value.
Clayton -
Having at least an A or B level knowledge in basic Micro and Macro economics. In other words, enroll and use your hard earned cash and time to understand the main groundwork and context of the discussion before even "entering" it.
Micro 101
Macro 101
If she is fine with those:
Econ in 1 Lesson is a pretty good little book
"As in a kaleidoscope, the constellation of forces operating in the system as a whole is ever changing." - Ludwig Lachmann
"When A Man Dies A World Goes Out of Existence" - GLS Shackle
I want to give a dissenting voice on the Econ classes. I took econ in college and just felt snowed. I did benefit from learning about annuitization, the discounted value of cash flows, and so on, but the rest was just confusing, unclear, and left more questions than answers. While I can see why anyone who wants to debate mainstream economists should take such a course, I don't think the individual who is simply "seeking answers" will benefit.
As someone who doesn't really understand economics, I can say that it isn't necessary to understanding the value of the philosophy. To understanding the whole of the philosophy, yes. I approach things purely from an ethical standpoint, and I'm sure there are other entrees to libertarianism also. If she's like me, wave an economics book at her and she'll lose interest.
Now, I'm learning it a bit because I've become interested-I've explored the ethical side to an extent, and I want to be better informed. So even if econimics isn't her "thing", if a good general intro text or series of articles catches her understanding then she'll probably get to it eventually.
As someone who just finished his first full economics course, principles of micro, an hour ago I can tell you that the course material is very confusing, mathematical, and "modular" in the sense that you're looking a lot at models without really understanding the behavior behind those models. If I didn't have a very good grasp of AE, from whence a lot of this stuff derives (at very least grew along side in the neo-classical synthesis), I can tell you that I would have absolutely no idea what this stuff really means, nor how these things would actually apply to the real world. I can't possibly see how such a class would really make one... Understand economics, rather understand graphs.
I think that macro, although tending to be more fallacious, tends to be more coherent because it's a lot easier to see the basic problems of growth and unemployment than a lot of stuff that micro focuses on like costs, at least in terms of how this builds itself up to price.
Yeah, I'm really not there. If I comfortably get through Lessons for the Young Economist and the associated manual, I betcha that's as far as I ever go.
I hear this a lot, that to understand libertarianism you have to understand economics. Maybe I don't, and won't "understand" in that way then-
The way I tend to look at is this. My personal ethics rely on NAP. I feel strongly that a philosophy of right living must agree with NAP in order to be ethically consistent. It doesn't enter into my way of thinking that it is, or is not, the most beneficial way of living or any such thing. Study of economics would probably give me a language to express why I think this is likely, but it is peripheral. The central idea is the ethic.
The Law by Bastiat.
That Which is Seen, and That Which is Not Seen by Bastiat.
These two works cover the best principles of freedom, both in a practical sense and in an economic sense, and both are brief; plus, you can tell your friend that a French classical theorist wrote them, and she'll eat it up.
The Law, as its basic thesis, proves that rights are not issued by governments but by God (or, in essence, the rights of life, liberty and ability to produce property are granted by birth alone).
That Which is Seen, and That Which is Not Seen applies the Broken Window Fallacy in a number of different way, showing people that destroying or stealing property does not create prosperity but artificially redistributes money, thereby forcing the victim to use his capital for maintenance costs in order to replace lost goods.
I get intimidated by math (graphs, formulas, etc.). Are those truly necessary for economic understanding?
One of the problems with a fully ethical libertarianism is that it can be shaky in that if you capture a person's morality, you'll capture their economic view. If someone believes that force is wrong and believes in private property, then another person could point out that private property is maintained by force, and that could make the person reject private property. Compare this to someone who supports private property for economic calculation.
That's not an effective argument against NAP. And I would argue that a person's dearly held values are much harder to shake than their convictions regarding economics.
To be a little more explicit, NAP is not pacifism. Someone who believes wrongly that it is, and who has espoused NAP on that basis, could be convinced that way. But since they were relying on a false assumption, it's not the morality that's shaky. It's the understanding.
I can't possibly see how such a class would really make one... Understand economics, rather understand graphs.
Maybe, but whats the point on comming in from a left field economics position as an autodidact and doing critiques on "mainstream economics" if you don't even know their fundamentals? I think that's going to send people's "crank" flags on high alert. I'm not being elitist, I'm just saying when people dont put their time and money where their mouth is to at least some degree, they should probably keep silent.
I actually found macro more confusing when I took it (I think I barely got a B in that class). But I remember thinking micro was more comprehehnsible. Of course this was before I knew anything about AE (other than maybe Shumpeter, if that counts) - but I know a lot of "naive" students (that is apolitical / aphilisophical types) end up falling in love with macro and micro courses when they take them - to me it is almost like a psych 101 class; something a lot of students can get into.
Don't ever be intimidated by a graph.
A graph is just two number-lines laid at right angles, with some "points" plotted on it:
Each point consists of two numbers because there are two number-lines. (4,5) is the point that is 4 along the horizontal axis (conventionally the "x-axis") to the right and 5 along the vertical axis (conventionally the "y-axis") up. The points themselves can either be a finite set of discrete values or they can be what is called a "function", which is just a way to map input numbers to output numbers. For example, the function f(x)=x just gives whatever number out that you put in. The x in parentheses represents the "input" x and the x on the right-hand side (RHS) states "this function puts out precisely what was given to it". So, f(4.4) = 4.4 or f(3.14159) = 3.14159.
We could define a function g(x)=7 if we wanted (a constant function). This means that for every value of x that you put in, you always get 7 out. This shows that x does not have to be on the RHS, even though it usually is. We could define another function h(x) = x+1. Now, if h(3.14159) = 4.14159. We could define k(x)=x+x =2*x and then k(3.14159) = 6.28318. We could define m(x)=x*x and then m(3.14159) = 3.14159 * 3.14159 = 9.869588...
The insight of "analytic geometry" (Descartes, et. al. ) was that these functions can be "plotted" geometrically in graphical form as shown above. Not only does this aid comprehension of the behavior of functions, it also provides the basis for the calculus of variations (study of the "rate of change" of a function). It can also be useful in providing a "gateway" between geometric and algebraic proofs.
If you are interested in exploring functions, check out this function grapher. Here are some sample things to type in:
x*4 - 1 (notice a pattern in the above functions yet?)
x*x (whoa, something changes here...)
1/x (whoa, this one's really different!)
To really comprehend the behavior of the function, try choosing a specific numeric value for x and then calculate the equation (e.g. if you choose x=-1 then x+1=0) and then check to see that when you go to that value of x on the graph, the function is actually at the predicted location. Also, try combining the above functions (add, subtract, multiply... even divide) and see what you get.
was that directed at me? If so, I really have no idea where you are comming from? If so the closest thing I can think of was the fact that I said I got a B- in Macro. If that's the case - it wasn't the graphs or math. I tend to like graphs.
Sorry, no, that was directed to Ark de Grande and any other lurkers who might feel intimidated by graphs. This is a pet peeve of mine as I feel the econ profession tries to snow people with graphs which is really the most absurd kind of wizardry because graphs are actually so easy to understand. The trouble starts in high school where most people are not given a truly intuitive grasp for what a graph is and there's just no good goddamn reason for this. The mathematicians also do their damnedest to mystify these things by focusing on things like poles and discontinuities which give the student the impression that graphs can be these very "dangerous" "mysteriuos" entities that only PhD inductees of the Holy Temple of Mathematics can use correctly with confidence. Nonsense. Everyone who can read and write can use a graph.
Some great responses. Thanks everyone. I ended up giving her Lessons for the Young Economist and For a New Liberty. I'll report back if she sees the light and becomes a libertarian.
I haven't read For a New Liberty myself, so I'm going to start on that next. Looks great.

Palmetto Health Heart Hospital is the First Hospital in South Carolina to Offer Arctic Front® Cardiac CryoAblation Catheter system to Treat Common Form of Atrial Fibrillation H. Wade Collins, MD
H. Wade Collins, MD
Palmetto Health Heart Hospital is the first hospital in South Carolina to offer the Arctic Front® Cardiac CryoAblation Catheter system to treat atrial fibrillation. The cryoballoon treatment, involves a minimally-invasive procedure that efficiently treats lesions around the pulmonary veins, which is the source of erratic electrical signals that cause irregular heartbeat. Atrial fibrillation is a serious heart rhythm disorder that affects millions of Americans.
"The value of the new cryoablation technology over existing ablation methods is that it enables physicians to safely and effectively isolate the pulmonary veins via a simple, efficient approach," said Dr. Wade Collins, a cardiologist with Columbia Heart. "This minimally invasive procedure gives patients peace-of-mind that their heart may be restored to an appropriate rhythm and they can resume their normal, daily activity following the treatment."
Clinical trials found that 70 percent of patients treated with the cryoballoon were free from A-fib after one year. Patients also experienced a significant decrease of symptoms, a decrease in medication and substantial improvements in both physical and mental quality of life.
Unlike traditional ablation treatments that use radiofrequency, or heat, to destroy faulty electrical circuits in the heart, the balloon-based technology of Arctic Front ablates cardiac tissue through the use of a coolant rather than heat, which is delivered through a catheter. Benefits include:
Atrial fibrillation is the most common and one of the most undertreated heart rhythm disorders in America. Approximately 3 million Americans are estimated to have the disease, and about 40 percent don't exhibit symptoms and may be under-diagnosed. Half of all diagnosed atrial fibrillation patients fail drug therapy, and if left untreated patients have up to a five times higher risk of stroke and an increased chance of developing heart failure. Additionally, since atrial fibrillation is often age-related, as the U.S. population continues to grow older, the need for more effective treatment options is escalating.

Barely a week later, the roads are open, the power is on and life is more or less back to normal.
While flooding has always been a part of the reality of living in Felton Grove, one resident has made it her mission to show the world that the unique history of the neighborhood — which has roots as old as the town itself — goes far beyond the water level of the river.
The community sits along the bank of the San Lorenzo River behind Covered Bridge Park and floods during sustained rainfall that raises the river level.
"I think there are so many benefits to living here," said Vicki Wees, a real estate agent who has lived in Felton Grove for more than 30 years. "To be able to live here in the mountains, to be able to walk to all the amenities — it's hard to come by."
Wees recently launched FeltonGrove.com, a blog dedicated to documenting the community and development of the neighborhood, from its beginnings as a summer getaway destination to a collection of private homes.
The idea for the blog originated with a suggestion by Mary Anderson at a meeting of the San Lorenzo Valley Chamber of Commerce in 2011, Wees said. She said she practiced blogging techniques on a "practice blog" for roughly a year before launching FeltonGrove.com in September 2012.
"I wanted to have a blog about Felton Grove eventually," she said. "But I didn't want to embarrass my neighbors."
Since FeltonGrove.com went live, Wees has spent her free moments interviewing old-timers and poring through old newspapers and museum collections for information about the history of the 21-acre community, which spreads from the Felton Covered Bridge Park to Felton Bible Church along Graham Hill Road.
"I feel this history there — I'm drawn to it," she said. "A lot of people have been there for a long time and choose to stay there because they love it."
Once upon a time, Wees said, Felton Grove was a place filled with tent cabins, a few permanent cabins, a summer camp for boys, a baseball field, a tennis court and Saturday evening dances — no jitterbug dancing allowed.
"It was a summer resort for the rich people of the San Francisco Bay Area," she said.
Wees has found advertisements and other references to the area as a campsite dating as far back as 1880.
The area continued as primarily a summer getaway until the mid-1950s, when a severe storm caused massive flooding that swept away many of the structures.
When Wees moved to the neighborhood in the late 1970s, Felton Grove was one of the few places she could afford to live as a young mother with two children, because, as she said, "it was a dive."
She described unpaved roads that would become mud pits with the slightest rain, transients squatting in empty summer homes and no street signs to be seen.
Since then, much has changed.
The roads are paved. Streets are marked with signs. And as a result of a grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency following floods in 1998, all but three of the 50 homes in the community are elevated so that the area is no longer susceptible to the devastating property damage from floods that was common in years past.
"I've watched this neighborhood evolve over the past 30 years," said Wees, who said she had sold 35 of the 50 properties in that time. "There's a lot of pride of ownership now."
As a symbol of Felton Grove's history, Wees recently commissioned a faux wooden sign at the entrance to the neighborhood, welcoming visitors and including the URL of FeltonGrove.com.
"I didn't tell people about (the blog) until the sign went up," she said. "Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd be a blogger — it just took on a life of its own."
