U.S. markets weak Wednesday on European woes
New York, NY, United States (AHN) – U.S. markets opened very weak Wednesday morning as Europe's woes continue to spook investors.
Right out the gate, the Dow dipped 118 points, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index sank 12 points and the NASDAQ lost 24.
Market participants have their eyes and ears focused on developments out of Europe. The European Parliament is meeting to chart its next course in light of recent changes in French and Greek leadership. Austerity measures have lost support in both these struggling nations, as well as Italy.
Investors will also have several economic reports to weigh throughout the day, including wholesale inventories and earning reports from AOL, Cisco and Priceline.
Stocks also fell sharply Tuesday, but managed to regain some of the losses by the close. The volatile equities continue to tumble as worries mount over Greece's political landscape, which could alter eurozone austerity agreements.
In world markets, European equities were lower in afternoon trading and Asia ended the day down.
In currencies and commodities, the dollar rose against the euro and the British pound, but fell versus the Japanese yen.
Oil continued its slide, off 71 cents to $ 96.30 a barrel.
Gold, after a rough day Tuesday, gave back another $ 17.10 Wednesday morning and was last trading at $ 1,587.40 a troy ounce.

The woods stole me today and I was grateful
that molting maples hummed their familiar hymns,
brilliant notes of crimson and lingering gold.
Dad, you walked beside me, chatting, invisible,
so I became five, fed nuts to nattering squirrels
as your big hand tugged at a cherished season.
Once, I'd thought you mapped the flights of geese,
scattered turbulent clouds in some grand scheme.
Again, your voice traveled as we walked the path,
windblown, while my footsteps crushed old dreams.

Chad Ford said this after the draft, "The Jazz had their hearts broken when they slid to fifth in the lottery. But everything worked out for them Thursday night. They got the guy rated third on their board, Exum, at No. 5, when both the Sixers and Magic passed on him. Then they got the guy rated 15th on their board, Hood, at No. 23, when he suddenly slid. In the process they shored up two big needs."

Pinsents to launch redundancy talks
Readers' comments (19)
Here we go again!
The partners take a 5% pay cut and everyone keeps their jobs. Simple.
Oh sorry, nodded off there.
Here, here!, surely it's about time equity partners started to bear the brunt. With all the talk of redundancies within the last six months I don't think we've seen talk of partners drawings being reduced. Surely the lynchpin of any business is it's leaders and any example should be led from the top, if not respect is lost.
At the risk of repeating this sentiment, it seems that in the real world businesses shed jobs when they makes losses or there is a very severe drop in profits. What is remarkable in the la-la land of law, law firms stick the knife into staff when these firms are still making very healthly profits. What is clear is that partners consider that their drawings should be recession proof. It is a shame that the concept of partnership - that which takes the profits in the good times but the losses in the bad does not apply here. Here partners take the profits both ways and the employees take the pain.
Continuing with said rant, it comes as no surprise that Pinsents have taken so long to shame-facedly admit to going down a redundancy route, since for ages it has been characterising its cull behind "performance managed" exits...which achieved the same aim but less cost and embarrassment for the firm but with the opportunity to kick loyal staff in the teeth really hard. Beautiful.Come on equity partners - if you can't get the work in through the door - fall on your own swords - it is you who should be blamed not the employees. If there are capacity gaps - look in the mirror. Take a BIG pay cut. Go on - it's because you're worth it.
Thank goodness I got out of private practiceyears ago and joined central govt. Now I keep being called by "development partners" asking me out for lunch to discus our "current legal needs" (yawwnnnn have we any use for a free secondee perhaps!) - as if they think we were born yesterday - (btw don't call us we'll call you - it really makes no difference how many portions of luke warm salmon we have eaten in your board rooms) but I suppose you cant blame them for trying. But as for falling on your swords - no, that in my experience has always been the sole solemn duty of the expensive assistant - with a mortgage and young mouths to feed - not your equity partner with more cash in the bank than he knows what to do with.
As a in-houser with a major global corporate which has potential huge external counsel spend, I very much look at the behaviour of these equity partners when I instruct external counsel and how staff are treated. These partners are still banking significant amounts, yet they think that it is perfectly acceptable to cancel the livelihoods of their staff. Partners - start having some moral fibre and stop being so self centred. Or the worm will turn...
shame....all that profit made and when you do the maths redundencys are not required. (apart from the dead wood departments.
perhaps over the next 6 weeks they will rethink this stratergy and improve on what was suggested.
To those assuming that the partners are sitting pretty with their full drawings, how do you know that they have not already borne the brunt with a cut in drawings?
At the one firm in London of which I have inside knowledge, the salaried partners have all taken cuts of at least 20% whilst the equity partners have taken bigger hits.
The same could well be true of Pinsents.
OMG WAT A BACKLASH!!!111 This is quite literally the most backlashiest backlash EVAR!
Yeah yeah. 20% off some pretty big figures. How about 100% cut when you lose your job mate. These guys also have plenty in the bank. Don't kid yourself. Maintaining the PEP is the holy grail. Like poor Michael Owen having to take a 60k per week pay cut. My heart bleeds that he now only picks up 70k a week. It is so tough.

At just 22 years of age, Italian prodigy Pasquale Riviezzo is one of the most promising talents we're yet to feature in The Places Series. Playing the piano for over eleven years and the guitar for over six, you may know Pasquale from his lush ambient productions on Dewtone from 2012; but it's here, amongst detailed field recordings, emotional scores and vivid instrumental journeys that Halo really shines as a talented composer.
His Places Series EP, titled "Song Of The Highest Tower" captures what he describes as, "something very intimate and close to the artist's personality and subjectivity", something "incidental to the artist's mind"; or what some of us may simply call, creative expression. And as most us know, there's no better way to bring this to life than a combination of enigmatic strings, poignant melodies and a heart-felt back story.
We have all experienced those moments when we capture a perfect image in our minds eye; those indelible scenes we can recall with perfect clarity. These snapshots might last a lifetime or disappear as quickly as they were realized but in that split-second, for composer Pasquale Riviezzo, it's a preservation of a very personal kind.
"I usually travel from Milan to Naples for my university studies. These are images of places that I saw in a misty morning while I was on the train, that were fixed in my heart for a moment, mixed with flowing feelings and thoughts. They maybe became different places after that, but this is a story I'd like to tell you, through notes. It's how a common place becomes intimate, and then a strangely isolated place."
Inspired by transit and transcendence, misty mornings and fleeting connection, Pasquale's EP is a collection that's characterized by weighty piano chords, ethereal atmospheres and measured use of string to give tracks a melancholic focus. (From the Place introduction by Reef Younis, read the full article at A Strangely Isolated Place)

Thanks heartily for all your support.

All tracks Composed, Recorded and Mastered by Pasquale Riviezzo.

Interview: Susan Maushart (author, The Winter of Our Disconnect)
Journalist Susan Maushart disconnected herself (and her family) from smartphones, email and the Web for six months to find out just how hooked she was on technology. It's a prospect that, frankly, gives me great terror, but after six months off, Maushart, who lives in New York, lived to tell the tale.
She wrote about her experience in a book released earlier this year called The Winter of Our Disconnect: How One Family Pulled the Plug on their Technology and Lived to Tell/Text/Tweet the Tale. Curious about the highs and lows of a life without technology, I contacted her for Untangling the Web.
Which incidents/events/observations specifically inspired you to take a digital detox?
The short answer is simply that I was worried about my kids – how they seemed to be living their lives "screened," literally, from what my son with no irony whatsoever called RL (Real Life). To be honest, I wasn't that far behind them. My relationship with my iPhone had all the intensity of an illicit affair. I even gave it a pet name and started buying it outfits … And then I re-read Walden, my favorite book in the universe, and that experience – plus the fact that I was menopausal (lol!) – pretty much pushed me over the edge. You know how you're not ready to go to re-hab 'til you reach rock bottom? Well, we'd reached it. It was a case of desperate times calling for desperate measures.
What do you feel are the greatest pressures to stay connected?
There's our guilt as parents. There's the matter of our turbo-charged work-ethic, which has convinced us it's a good thing to blur the boundaries between work and home. There's the pleasure principle – getting intermittent "updates" in the form of information or entertainment stimulates the pleasure centers in our brains in the same way that playing a slot machine does. There's the seldom-discussed but ever-insistent siren song of conspicuous consumption, whereby s/he who was the latest upgrade wins. We abjure this tendency in our kids – but as adults we are every bit as susceptible. There's the fear of boredom – which is culturally constructed of course and at present has reached epidemic proportions. And then there are the biases of the devices themselves. We like to think that they are tools and we are the masters. If only life were that simple! As the proverb reminds us, "To a man with a hammer, the whole world looks like nail."
How have your relationships with people you were used to communicating with via technology change in the short term, and how have they changed in the long-term? How did they adapt to your offline status?
My colleagues initially panicked, assuming that I was having a midlife crisis or maybe a good old fashioned breakdown. (Because, come on. No email? No PHONE? Who does that?!) Even my family were pretty alarmed at first. But relationships remained intact – and most of the important ones not only did not deteriorate. They deepened. When all you can do is communicate by letter, or face to face, or via landline you cease to connect in soundbytes. You can't anymore. It's rude. So the slowing down entails a drilling down. Our relationships with one another as a family were changed dramatically because of this. We went from a family that basically transmitted data ("come to the dinner table", "sign this", "get in the car now" ) to a family that communicated. And by that I don't mean that we sat around having D&Ms all day. On the contrary in some ways. We regained the lost art of hanging out and shooting the breeze.
Can you give me an example of how you feel you (and/or a member of your family) have changed cognitively because of your holiday from digital technologies?
Our attention spans definitely grew. We remembered how to read whole books – all of us. My kids forcible retirement from multi-tasking, I am convinced, enabled them to be soooo much more efficient at completing schoolwork. My youngest daughter in particular underwent a massive mood stabilization experience … almost certainly the result of repaying a long-standing sleep debt. I think we all became more reflective – I know I did – simply because we'd cleared a little headspace for our own use. I also think we experienced deeper levels of relaxation, physical relaxation, which helped us cognitively as well. I remember watching my son in his bedroom, staring at the shadows on the wall and listening to jazz … a very different cognitive environment from zapping targets in a first-person shooter game.
How have you integrated what you learned during your time away from tech into a life that once again includes tech?
It's ironic that, for me, the biggest outcome of The Experiment was making the decision to move back home to New York (after 25 years in Australia) – and as a result I feel like I LIVE on Skype! My youngest daughter, still in high school, is here with me on Long Island. But my two older kids are in university in Australia, and literally not a day goes by without multiple texts, MMSes, phonecalls, emails and Facebook messages – and often all of the above! I am terribly grateful to be living at time and in a place where such things are possible. Having said that, you can't step in the same river twice. Having been through such a lengthy period of 'de-tox', there is no way you can ever go back to using media uncritically again. The biggest change for all of us, I think it's fair to say, is the recognition that one needs to use media – and live life - deliberately (to use one of Thoreau's favourite words).

Guilford is a town in Chenango County, New York, United States. The town is on the east border of the county. The population was 2,922 at the 2010 census.[1]
The land was purchased from the Oneida tribe in 1785. The town was first settled around 1787. One of the first settlements were in what is now known as East Guilford, by the Mercereau brothers (who were Revolutionary War spies for George Washington). They built a mill on Guilford Creek in Indian Orchard Falls, along the Catskill Turnpike.
Guilford was formed from the town of Oxford in 1813 as "Eastern." The name became "Guilford" in 1817. The town was called by an older name, "Fayette," for the early part of its history during the time it was in Tioga County.

Hispanic or Latino of any race were 0.89% of the population.
There were 1,181 households out of which 31.4% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 56.2% were married couples living together, 8.9% had a female householder with no husband present, and 29.0% were non-families. 22.7% of all households were made up of individuals and 9.9% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.58 and the average family size was 3.00.
In the town the population was spread out with 26.0% under the age of 18, 6.5% from 18 to 24, 27.3% from 25 to 44, 26.5% from 45 to 64, and 13.7% who were 65 years of age or older.

Everyone who reblogs this

So if you reblogged Kevin Tran and a dalek recently
If you just posted some Sherlock and Hannibal
Shitty fanfics, at your door, no questions asked.
Reblog away!
This is my baby, her name is Bella. We discovered that she has developed a growth between two of her spinal discs that is fusing them together and slowly paralyzing her.
She is in an immense amount of pain and never stops whining recently.
We just payed for her to have some x-rays done, but this close to christmas we can not afford to pay $2000 for an MRI scan plus money for medication.
Understandably because she is in so much pain it's not fair to keep her walking around.
I have set up a donation pool in hopes that a few kind strangers can help us scrape by and save my dog. She means very very much to me and my whole family. Including my young siblings.
All I'm asking for is maybe a $1 donation or even a signal boost so that maybe someone who can help will be willing to do so.
Still not even a penny earned towards Bella's recovery.
signal boost
ok, so as i was talking about earlier, i have to give away at random one of the props from Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. I've had them for 10 years and I think its time for one of them to find a new home.
At random i will give away one of the following - An envelope for Mr Potter, A Knut, A Sickle or a Galleon (all are actually minted by a bank) or the Gringotts cheque as shown in my frame.
now i'm not asking you to follow me or any of those other stupid things the Tumblr Giveaway's do, just reblog this post and when there are enough enough reblogs i will announce a winner at random
good luck!
….sorta scared?….
your url makes this 10x creepier

Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Part Six of Three
ePub eBook : 27 May 2010
Arthur Dent's accidental association with that wholly remarkable book The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has not been entirely without incident.
Arthur has travelled the length, breadth and depth of known, and unknown, space. He has stumbled forwards and backwards through time. He has been blown up, reassembled, cruelly imprisoned, horribly released and colourfully insulted more than is strictly necessary. And, of course, he has comprehensively failed to grasp the meaning of life, the universe and everything.
Arthur has, though, finally made it home to Earth. But that does not mean he has escaped his fate.
For Arthur's chances of getting his hands on a decent cuppa are evaporating along with the world's oceans. Because no sooner has he arrived than he finds out that Earth is about to be blown up . . . again.

And mougene were born... skulking in the shadows, producing post-pubescent pop as a soundtrack to life - subtle, ethereal, vital - where electronica meets cinematica. The album Small Tone is the result of all our blood, sweat and tears."

"I.F.U" - Usher
After several listens to Usher's
highly mildly-anticipated (um, Raymond v. Raymond anyone? gurl stop) album, Looking 4 Myself, I have come to the following conclusions:
1. This is MUCH better than his previous release. He kind of lost himself while trying to … battle himself? Whatever. Garbage for the most part, IMHO.
2. Definitely love some of the new directions he is taking in terms of music genres and production collabos. Those Swedish House Mafia tracks are sweet club bangers, as Ray pointed out. And them Danja joints is fiyah. Thank$ to the fre$h n' heavy production, almo$t every track $ound$ $o ma$terfully fine-tuned.
3. The first track with Will.I.Am and Keith Harris is BONK. You did not just sample "Uptown Girl" (Will.I.Am I am looking at YOU - I know it was your dumbass)!
4. WTF is going on with the title track?! So out of place.
5. "I.F.U." is my favorite jam, but why the hail was it left off the album and only included as a bonus track? By far the sickest beat and errybody loves some slutty lyrics.
I just want your undivided
You should let me penetrate your everything
You've got me beyond excited
Baby step into my room, my room, you don't need a wedding ring
I think sex is for strangers
Making love is for the ones who plan to stay together
How about we embrace the danger
Girl I'm pretty sure when this is all said and done
We gon' do a whole lot a…
We gon' do a whole lot a…
… I'm Freaking You
Now, go put this joint on your own personal "Whore Timez" playlist and go get some.

I never did it until recently and that was just my own decision, before it just made me feel uncomfortable doing it myself...i would have much rather have my SO do things instead of doing things myself
The other day, the conversation between my wife and I came up about masturbation (how ill never know). Anyhow, I asked her if she does it and her answer is: "no, never have never will"..My response was, your 35 years old and you never even tried it or experimented ? She is sticking to her story. I dropped the subject, and left it that I don't mind if she does, as I didn't want to make her uncomfortable. I dont feel talking to her about it further is worth anything as I understand that it is a social taboo, but is this even possible ? I will mention religion is not a factor, she is not religious nor was she raised in a religious upbringing. I just assumed that everyone did it and just didn't talk about it. Maybe I am used to hearing about it from guys who will readily admit doing it... What do you girls think ?

Lifes not about how many breaths you take its about how many moments take your breath away!
Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss it you will land among the stars
i have only done it once, & it does nothing for me. i could honestly believe that she has never, even myself i never did it till i did it for my hubby, nor had i ever felt the want to. every woman is different, for some it is amazing for others it isn't ne thing special.
Congratulations! Today is your day. You're off to Great Places! You're off and away! You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who'll decide where to go.
My Dh had mentioned masturbation to me a few times over the years (we are 40him/39me) I had tried it when I was younger with no results. I just felt silly. Fast forward to a few months ago when my libido went thru the roof. Well now I understand the joys of self pleasure. I do still enjoy DH wayyyyy more. But sometimes you need to make due.
Dude... (that sounds funny to me...)
How is your sex life with you wife? Is it OK or do you want more? If it is fine then don't worry about it. If you want more then have some gentle discussions. It's all about communication.
"When one door closes, another opens. But we often look so regretfully upon the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened for us."
Helen Keller
I'm not a girl, I'm a grown up and very sexual, woman. That is the first part of your answer - "girls" are children. (pet peeve of mine )
I think a lot of women do have a problem with the idea, the action and/or talking about masterbation and sex. Whether people are religious or not, there is a deep social stigma attached to female sexuality. Recent studies of brain activity (it's amazing how they can map responses now) show that women are just as visually stimulated as men, just as easily aroused and yet a large percentage have apparently blocked the response or fail to recognise it. In the lab, women whose brains and physical responses indicate orgasm has occured, state that it hasn't. They are so out of touch with their own bodies and responses that they actually do not feel them.
This is probably due to a combination of factors; men's sexual responses are very upfront and obvious to them, a woman's arousal is far less noticable, casually. She gets less immediate feedback to support understanding of what arouses her and how. Add to that all the "nice girl" and that's "dirty" messages she likely got growing up, then throw in all the derrogatory messages we have as a society about female sexuality and you have a lot to overcome. Just look at all the negative terms we have for sexual women - most aren't allowed here - but ho, that S/t word, loose, bimbo, and broad are a few milder ones. Notice that we do not have comparable words for men?
Even if we aren't religious, the messages are deeply embeded - women and women's sexuality in particular, is what destroys men, brought evil into the world, original sin, those awful, bad women, distract men from the business of seriously destroying themselves and each other and making sacrifices and making sure life is grim before you die. I won't get into citing specific references (that might offend someone) but every major faith has a legacy of anti female beliefs and rhetoric. After all if you are going to control people and make them feel guilty, you have to take the fun away and hold that in reserve for an after death party.
Women who want to be "good" know that sex, sexual self pleasure and probably sexual pleasure with a partner, are, if not down right bad, at least highly questionable and better avoided. I once went to a business sponsored partnership program which dealt with both working partnerships and life partnerships. It was a type of business which often involved couples. The couple conducting it were very successful, quite wealthy and had a very strong faith base. When talking about sex to the women, the wife, told the ladies that you have to learn to like sex because it makes the men happy and improves the relationship. While the results could be true, I thought it an odd way to put it. What about coming to enjoy sex because it enhances your own life? Because it will make you, as a woman, happier? Because it will improve the relationship for both? Nope, learn to like it, to improve things for him. So the postive message that sex is ok, was corrupted with the message that it's ok only because it makes men happier.
This is the reality we live with. Change is slow and while there is a movement toward acceptance of women's sexual needs the route is strange and still lined with negative messages. The idea that the nice, fresh, clean cut, girl next door masterbates and expects an orgasm when she has sex and is still a nice, fresh, clean cut girl, hasn't really caught on. All that means is she is an undercover "bad" girl, secretly a ho.
It's no wonder that your wife and many other women refuse to talk about masterbation, may never touch themselves sexually and really aren't very comfortable with sex. It's an unsafe and distrusted arena for many women. Some women do manage very successfully to turn that around. As we get older we may drop inhibitions and get far more proactive about our own needs. You can facilitate that by being a caring lover, educating yourself about pleasuring women -there are is a rapidly growing collection of books on the subject, gently encouraging her to express her needs. That means you have to listen nonjudgementally and not try to "correct" her, if what she says she wants or needs isn't what you think it should be - men do that a lot and it can shut a woman down. (It's kind of like telling someone how to pronouce their own name - yes, people do that)
I'm sure if you do some reading here and jump into some of the threads you will get lots of ideas and feed back.
We can only learn to love by loving. - Iris Mudoch, British writer
Is she a very sexual person? Does she seem to enjoy the sex that you two have together and have a healthy apetite for it? Its been my observation that women that choose not to masturbate tend to just not enjoy sex all that much.
It could be that she's just too embarassed to admit it to you, if she is a highly sexual partner and enjoys it with you its likely she has tried it before at some point or often:P and is just embarassed.
If she isn't really that much of a sexual person, does not orgasm with you, doesn't really enjoy sexual activity its quite possible that she is actually telling the truth.
Mind you, I am not saying women that have never masturbated hate sex and can't possibly like it... its just been an observation of mine that the two of those things (where moral reasons aren't involved) tend to go hand in hand.
Scars remind us of where we've been...they don't have to dictate where we're going.

Before I got together with my boyfriend I did touch because I was curious but I soon found out that poking here, pulling there, caressing this part, or pushing that fold had zero effect on me. As a result I never bothered to continue on a regular basis since it was so boring (recently been increasing though in hopes that it would help achieve another orgasm with my boyfriend). Maybe your wife is the same way, perhaps she tried it out but got bored and does not want to admit that the act of masturbation did not yield the so-called euphoric feelings that so many say it "should".
There are those who believe that dictionaries should not merely reflect the times but also protect English from the mindless assaults of the trendy.
Because of a semi-sexless marriage I masturbate at least once a day. I have learned to that is what I need and I don't get it from my husband. Maybe your wife is satisfied with the sex she gets and does not need it. It is not for everybody.
