Pension Funding Resources
The Funding Issue Facing School Employers and the Commonwealth
The current funding issue confronting PSERS represents the greatest challenge the System has faced in its history. PSERS has created this resource page on its website to help PSERS' members, the media, legislators and their staff and the general public better understand the System and the complexity of the funding challenges facing PSERS, the Commonwealth and school employers.
PSERS will continue to be very public with the issue in an attempt to raise awareness and will keep continually update this page with any developments in the coming year. PSERS remains committed to providing all available assistance to the Governor, General Assembly and School Employers to deal with the funding issue.

Act 120 of 2010
On November 23, 2010, the Governor signed HB 2497 into law. The legislation is now known as Act 120 of 2010.
Act 120 includes a series of actuarial and funding changes to PSERS and benefit reductions for individuals who become new members of PSERS on or after July 1, 2011.
Act 120 will NOT impact the pension benefits of current PSERS members or retired PSERS members.

Q: Where can I find information about proposed pension legislation?
A: The State Employees' Retirement System works with the Public Employee Retirement Commission to maintain a searchable database specific to retirement-related legislation. You can find proposals related to Pennsylvania school, state, or municipal retirement systems; you can sort by common retirement-related topics; and you can access actuarial and cost notes, if applicable.
You can also visit the General Assembly's website to search the content and status of all legislation introduced in Pennsylvania.

Don't get us wrong. Nothing can really replace pure wools, silks, and cottons, but from what we've observed, a cache of new textiles are quickly becoming just as commonplace as our old standbys. Designers have turned their attention toward new, hi-tech fabrics such as neoprene, casein, lurex, silicone, and tencel. Sounds fancy, sure, but what the heck does that really mean?
Instead of head scratching in the fitting room, we've asked a textile expert who helped us translate the jargon. Ahead, we're introducing you to five fabrics that are making beautiful garments more wearable, sustainable, and some, more affordable than ever.

Read Whole Story
Xavier Dolan may be 25 years old, but the French-Canadian filmmaker already shares two things with cinema legend Jean-Luc Godard: the 2014 Cannes' Jur...
Directed by Québec's then-22-year-old Dolan (now 24), the sweeping romantic epic looks at the decade-long love affair between a trans woman and her female-identified, ever-passionate partner.
Laurence Anyways is an epic love story that chronicles a decade between the moment when Laurence (Melvil Poupaud) tells his girlfriend of two years, Fred (Suzanne Clement) that he wants to become a woman and still be together.
Laurence Anyways is not a megaphone-shouting totem for a gender revolution. It is decidedly a very real human drama that takes time with conversations, reactions, declarations and outbursts.

We read previous low-starred reviews and were reluctant to attend. We are glad we did. The play is creatively written and presented, engaging the entire two hours, and acted superbly. It's a thought-provoking, personal journey into each character's history, revealed as they play each other's parts during a six-week drama class. Brilliant! It's not to be missed! Kristi & Richard

This is a 12 x 12 layout that I made last year as a wedding gift for my granddaughter. The quote is one that I felt was perfect for a couple getting married. I cut each the letters out 4 times and adhered them together. After doing a couple of these, I figured out a relatively simple method for putting these together and getting everything straight. I happen to have a printer that will print 12 x 12 paper, so I printed the quote out where I wanted it (with the right spacing) in a VERY light grey color. That made adhering the letters much easier...and keeping everything straight. I had trimmed the edges of the white down 1/2 inch on each side then backed it with a piece of dark red card stock. The heart was made by scanning in the definition for "love", then printing it repeatedly on an 8.5 x 11 paper, then I cut 25-30 hearts from the printed papers and stitched them down the middle, fluffing up the layers after stitching. For a finishing touch, I added a red bling heart on the layout. The layout was framed in a black shadowbox frame. It really turned out lovely.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

text: OverviewBack to top Doctor's Best - Q + Kinase Cardiovascular Support - 30 Vegetarian Capsules Item# :131213UPC# :753950003033 Brand:Doctor's Best Size/Form:30 Vegetarian Capsules Ship Weight:0.15 Servings:30 Dosage:1 Capsule(s) Click here to read a PDF brochure on this product Doctor's Best Q + Kinase Cardiovascular Support - 30 Vegetarian Capsules Doctor's Best Q Plus Kinase Cardiovascular Support features the nutrient duo of co-enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and nattokinase, both contributing unique attributes to support the heart and enhance circulatory health. CoQ10 is necessary for energy generation from cellular mitochondria, and heart muscle fibers have the highest density of mitochondria and highest CoQ10 concentration of any tissue. Nattokinase is an enzyme derived from "natto", a fermented soy food popular in Japan for centuries. The protein-digesting activity of nattokinase together with the versatile bioenergetic and antioxidant properties of CoQ10 provides an unparalleled approach to cardiovascular health. Science-based nutrition Dietary supplement Heart & blood vessel support Helps maintain already normal blood pressure Promotes energy production in cells This product does not contain: milk, egg, wheat, gluten, sugar, sweeteners, salt, or preservatives Suitable for vegetarians and vegans Benefits of Q+ KinaseSupports Heart and Endothelial FunctionThe highest concentration of Coenzyme Q10 is found in heart muscle tissues due to the heart's extraordinary energy requirements. Sufficiency of CoQ10 facilitates the heart's intense energy consumption by enabling the mitochondria - their cellular powerhouses - to maintain their ATP production at optimal levels. Maintenance of normal energy utilization and supply is crucial for maintaining any cell's life processes. Based on results from clinical studies, researchers have concluded that for various segments of the population, CoQ10 supplementation can help ATP production needed to maintain wellbeing. Coenzyme Q10 promotes cardiovascular health in part by confronting oxidative stress - that state in which oxidative "free radical" processes threaten to exceed antioxidant protection. A versatile antioxidant, CoQ10 works in conjunction with both vitamin E and vitamin C to help protect the entire cell against free radical damage. Such integrated antioxidant activity also enhances the structural integrity of lipids in cell membranes and in the blood, consequently supporting healthy blood vessels and circulation. In a case-control study of 153 individuals, higher blood CoQ10 concentrations were associated with superior cardiovascular health. Maintenance of healthy endothelia (the thin singular layer of cells that line the inner surface of blood vessel walls) is crucial maintenance of already healthy blood pressure and for overall health. CoQ10's ability to help protect the endothelial messenger nitric oxide against oxidation has been linked to its capacity to enhance endothelial function. A meta-analysis of five randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trials with CoQ10 on endothelial function concluded it has a significant effect on healthy circulation, as measured by flow-mediated dilation.Supports Healthy CirculationThe nattokinase in this formulation is proven from human and corroborative animal studies to support various aspects of the cardiovascular system. In a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial, 86 men and women (ages 20-80) received one capsule per day for 8 weeks containing either nattokinase (at a dose of 2,000 fibrinolytic activity units) or placebo. Compared to placebo, nattokinase significantly helped maintain a healthy blood pressure. Research in rats not only confirmed this effect but also demonstrated that nattokinase can retain its protease activity after intestinal absorption. Other types of research advance the notion that nattokinase can help maintain circulatory and vascular health. In an early small human trial, both the natto food and the nattokinase enzymes were administered (soybeans were used as a control), and various features of protease activity were measured in the bloodstream. The researchers concluded natto and nattokinase significantly improved certain physiological makers, which taken together suggest it helps maintain healthy blood circulation.More recently, an analysis of markers in blood drawn from healthy adults found that nattokinase produced a significant, dose-dependent effect that suggests practicality in helping with maintenance of healthy blood flow. These effects could be achieved using doses of nattokinase that produced blood concentrations to doses that produced benefits in animal studies.Helps Replenish Losses from StatinsMany widely used statin drugs that are taken to alter cholesterol levels also have an unfortunate nutritional side effect: they deplete the body's CoQ10 by blocking the body's usual pathways for its synthesis. Supplemental CoQ10 can be taken in anticipation of this particular drawback, with benefits from 30 days of CoQ10 supplementation seen in a randomized, blinded trial that investigated effects on undesirable attributes of statin-induced disruptions.Supports Immune System PerformanceImmune cells are among the most metabolically active cells in the body, and accordingly have relatively large requirements for CoQ10. Older randomized controlled trials corroborated by recent ones suggest that supplementing with CoQ10 can promote a healthy immune response. Other immune cells ("phagocytes", "killer cells") use CoQ10 both to help maintain their needed mobility and to generate free radicals directed against their prey. That is, some of these cells re-direct that same CoQ10 election transfer properties normally used to make energy, into generating free radials directed against their targets. An Italian study of subjects aged over 90 found that natural killer cell performance was superior in subjects with the best CoQ10 status. CoQ10 supplementation may be especially beneficial starting in middle age, since its levels steadily decline after the age of 40.

One of the best Coolermaster cases available 09/28/2008
This review is from: Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced - High Air Flow Full Tower Computer Case with USB 3.0 and All-Black Interior
Lots of room, seriously. The removable HDD bays are really nice - they make for a quick installation. The HDD bays sit perpendicular to the front 230mm fan which seems good for cooling. Great setup for cable management. Lots of tie offs, pre-cut holes and areas to tuck away your cables. Power/reset buttons on the top of the tower. Pre-drilled holes for mounting 120mm fans in case the 230mm fans do not work out for you. Top and bottom PSU mounting options. Can double as an air conditioner for the summer depending on your cooling setup =D .
Not a huge deal but the power LED is really bright. The 140mm back fan doesn't come with a grill (at least mine didn't). Once again, not a huge deal - I just ordered one from frozencpu.com (newegg doesn't carry that size grill). The side panel doors can be a bit tricky to screw into place. Would have been nice to see it come with a bottom 120mm fan.

Overall this case is far superior to the Cosmos-S. This case has a better price point and better setup for air cooling. For my new build I first purchased the Cosmos-S, I quickly returned it once the HAF was released. It stands approx 2 feet tall, is 2 feet deep and 10 inches wide (with wheels attached).

Serves 6
6 tbsp butter, divided
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 tsp sugar
3/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes, divided
Salt and Pepper
Cooking Spray
3 tbsp olive oil plus more for brushing
3 zucchini, sliced into 1/2" thick rounds
1 large eggplant (about 1 lb), peeled
and sliced into 1/2" thick rounds
3 beefsteak tomatoes, sliced into 1/2" thick rounds
1 onion, chopped
5 cloves garlic, chopped (or 1 tbsp jar chopped garlic)
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 cups Arborio rice
1/4 cup dry white wine
4 cups simmering chicken stock
3/4 cup grated pecorino Romano cheese (or Parmigiano-Reggiano)
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
2 tbsp fresh basil, julienned
Melt butter in a small skillet. When sizzling, add walnuts and toss. Sprinkle sugar and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes over walnuts and continue cooking until golden brown. Season with a little salt and pepper and remove from heat.
Spray grill rack well with cooking spray, and preheat grill to medium-high heat. Brush zucchini, eggplant and tomatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill until well browned and softened. Remove to a cutting board and coarsely chop.
In a large saucepan, heat 3 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and remaining crushed red pepper flakes. Cook until onion is translucent. Add rice, stirring constantly, and cook 5 minutes more, making sure rice does not brown. Add wine, stirring constantly, and let totally evaporate. When wine is evaporated, begin adding stock 1/2 cup at a time, letting each addition evaporate before adding the next addition.
After fourth addition of stock is added, begin tasting rice. Rice should be al dente when done. You need to keep tasting rice, because, depending on rice, you may or may not have to use all of the stock. When fourth addition of stock is absorbed, add grilled vegetables.
After last addition of stock is absorbed, remove from heat, and stir in butter, Romano, toasted walnuts, parsley, and basil. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Bias was 588V!? So higher than pro-bias? I guess we're safe then to try the Kingsounds from any pro-bias amps.
I wonder if I should take a bias measurement on the tube amp? If the specs are that far off from what you measured, I wonder if there is any consistency between amps?

She's in a great place after spending a few months in rehab, and Kesha is giving some credit to her new beau, Brad Ashenfelter.
While chatting with Ryan Seacrest this week (June 20), the "Timber" hottie said that she's not only happy and healthy, but she's also in love.
She's been focusing on maintaining a healthy lifestyle as of late and Kesha hit up Crossroads Vegan Restaurant in West Hollywood on Tuesday evening (June 17) for some delicious eats.
The "TiK ToK" singer was more than happy to chat with her fans and sign autographs as she made her exit and sped off into the night.
With so much glitter and glam, Kesha made sure to show up at the 2014 Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas tonight (May 18).
She cleaned up her act in rehab, and now Kesha is ready to take on a new adventure as ABC announced she's joining the cast of "Rising Star."
Earlier today (May 16), the network revealed the all-star lineup of judges for its newest music competition.
Stepping out to support our furry friends, Kesha and Kate Mara attended the Humane Society of the United States 60th Anniversary Benefit Gala in Beverly Hills on Saturday (March 29).
Looking great post-rehab, the "Tik Tok" singer made her red carpet debut a long black and glittering, semi-sheer halter gown while the "House of Cards" beauty chose a pretty patterned black and white dress.
He worked closely with Ke$ha on their hit single "Timber" last fall, but now Pitbull reveals why he hasn't spoken to her since her stint in rehab.
Making an astonishing come back after her stint in rehab, Ke$ha is no more, as the pop princess has traded in her dollar sign, becoming "Kesha".
Replacing her former Twitter tag, @Ke$haSuxx, the 27-year-old songstress re-tailored her official handle to @KeshaRose, and has made a fashion statement for her fans.
Back and better then ever, Ke$ha arrived in Los Angeles, CA on Thursday night (March 6).
The "Tik Tok" singer kept a smile on her face and optimism in her outfit while passing a friendly wave to the awaiting photographers upon her return from her stint in rehab.

Republicans on the House Financial Services Committee say the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has been "wholly unresponsive" to their requests for detailed spending plans for next year. In a letter to the CFPB, they said the budget submitted to Congress is "unnecessarily vague." The GOP lawmakers have also requested more details on the CFPB's planned office upgrades.

Chelsea Light Moving is the latest project from Sonic Youth man Thurston Moore. His new four-piece outfit has been slowly gestating in the last year or so, throwing out occasional songs and now emerges with some strong words: "The band is ready to detonate any birthday party, wedding or hullaboo in any country, planet or stratosphere that doesn't support right-wing extremist NRA sucking bozo-ology." The onslaught begins on 4 March when they release their self-titled first album through Matador. Ahead of that they've sent out "Empire of Time", an attacking track from the LP with guitar tones, chimes and crunching riffs. Find it at ind.pn/13yxIOL.
Gorgeous growths from Bad Seeds
A few weeks back I wrote glowingly about the new Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds single "We No Who U R", taken from their February-released album Push the Sky Away. The gorgeously solemn song is accompanied by a low-key, shadowy video directed by controversial French film-maker Gaspar Noé. See it at youtu.be/tjF57zEbxpI. This week the group dropped "Jubilee Street", an album track from the new record with a lyric video at youtu.be/RYyX1ISE6KQ. Not quite as quiet as the previous effort, but it is equally gorgeous and stately with guitars and strings beautifully expanding out over six minutes.
Precocious Smith kids go fly a kite
I can't say I'm a particular fan of Will Smith – or his wife Jada Pinkett Smith. Nor, like any sane person, do I approve of the precocious over-achieving privileged young offspring of famous people. But god-dammit, I heard a song by the Smiths' children, Jaden and Willow (14 and 12 years old respectively), and it's actually quite good. The track, "Kite", was put online this week at youtu.be/0hLCjYiMklE. This certainly wasn't what I was expecting: produced by Teo, it's a slow, sparse, stoned-sounding rap with hints of dubstep, trip-hop and the hip-hop of Kendrick Lamar.

This week in the NFL
In a very short time, the race to the top in the NFC became far more muddled than it had been. Seattle (8-1) is still in control of its destiny, but with San Francisco (6-2) and New Orleans (6-2) on their schedule and on their tail, it's far from a sure thing that the Seahawks will hold serve. And that's just for home-field advantage. Anything can happen in the playoffs. Before last Sunday it looked like Green Bay (5-3) and New Orleans were in good shape to run away with their divisions, but the Saints lost to the New York Jets and the Packers lost to the Chicago Bears. That left the Packers, Bears and Detroit Lions all 5-3 in the NFC North, and the Saints and the hot Carolina Panthers (5-3) one game apart with two games still to be played between them in the NFC South. In the NFC East, it's a fuzzy mess with Dallas (5-4) on top, but Philadelphia (4-5), Washington (3-5) and, dare we say, the New York Giants (2-6) are all in the running.
The second half of the season begins this weekend with some decent matchups, but critical head-to-head division showdowns are still few and far between. Chicago and Detroit face off at Soldier Field, Cincinnati (6-3) and Baltimore (3-5) tangle at M&T Bank Stadium, and Denver (7-1) and San Diego (4-4) tussle at Qualcomm Stadium. The Bengals and Broncos have a chance to put their opposition to bed, but the Bears and Lions won't decide anything Sunday. For pure entertainment value, Carolina (5-3) at San Francisco (6-2) will be a game to watch. The two defenses will be competing to see which one can inflict the most hurt. Also, the Seahawks at Atlanta (2-6) might not seem like much of a game, but Seattle has been eeking out victories, and the Falcons won between the two in the playoffs last year. It could be a barnburner.
After the Bears beat the Packers to end a five-game losing streak at Lambeau Field on Monday night, they have a quick turnaround to face a Lions team coming off the bye. Quarterback Jay Cutler will return for the Bears after missing just one game with a torn groin muscle. Should he prove to be less than 100%, the Bears would have no qualms about inserting backup Josh McCown, who engineered the victory over the Packers. The Bears had plenty of chances to beat the Lions at Ford Field, but their run defense, which gave up 199 yards rushing against the Packers, let Reggie Bush go off for 139 yards on 18 carries. The Bears out-gained the Lions and held wide receiver Calvin Johnson to four catches for 44 yards and a touchdown, but Cutler threw three interceptions and could not pull off a fourth-quarter comeback in which Chicago cut the lead from 40-16 to 40-32. The Packers play without quarterback Aaron Rodgers for the first time since the end of the 2011 season and will have their hands full with a Philadelphia Eagles team that is 3-1 on the road. The Vikings get to take the weekend off after beating Washington on Thursday night.
CAROLINA PANTHERS (5-3) at SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (6-2)
When: 3:05 p.m. Sunday.
Key injuries: Panthers — LB Chase Blackburn (foot), CB James Dockery (shoulder) and G Chris Scott (knee) are out. 49ers — WR Quinton Patton (foot) is out; LB Ahmad Brooks (stinger), DT Ray McDonald (biceps) and DT Justin Smith (shoulder) are questionable.
Player to watch: Panthers quarterback Cam Newton has been playing consistent football. In the team's four straight victories, he has thrown for seven touchdowns and run for three. He had gone three straight games without an interception until throwing two in a 34-10 victory over Atlanta last week.
Recent history: The Panthers have won three straight, but the two head coaches, Ron Rivera and Jim Harbaugh, have not met.
Key statistic: Kicker Graham Gano is 36 for 36 on kicks — 24 of 24 on extra points and 12 of 12 on field goals, four of them from 50 yards or beyond. Also, 81.4% of his kickoffs have gone for touchbacks.
Bottom line: The 49ers have won five straight and are starting to get back some of their key players. Linebacker Aldon Smith is likely to make his return after undergoing substance abuse treatment, and wide receiver Mario Manningham is set to make his debut after being on the PUP list. Offensively, the 49ers have been putting up big numbers, but Colin Kaepernick has thrown for just six touchdowns during the winning streak and for the season has just nine. Nevertheless, they have scored an average of 35 points per game. Defensively, the 49ers haven't allowed a team to score more than 20 points since losing to Indianapolis, 27-7, on Sept. 22. In Carolina, the 49ers aren't facing a daunting test; the Panthers rank 20th in offense. But they run the ball well and their defense is young and imposing. They rank second against the run, third overall and have allowed 48 total points in their last four games. This will be an intersection of new and old — new-breed running quarterbacks vs. old-school defenses.
5 Consecutive games the offense has scored on its opening possession.
12 Sacks the defense had in the four games LB Clay Matthews missed due to a broken thumb.
2 Games in which the defense has recovered a fumble.
47 Yards receiving the offense has gotten from its tight ends in the two games Jermichael Finley has been out.
1.1 Yards more per carry the offense is averaging than a year ago.
35 Passing plays of 20 or more yards the Chicago Bears defense has allowed, fourth-most in the NFL.
12 Sacks the Bears offense has allowed. After eight games last year, it had allowed 28.
7 Games in which the Detroit Lions have allowed one or fewer sacks.
80 Percent NFC North kickers have been successful from 50 yards or beyond.
1 Receptions of 40 or more yards the division's tight ends have had.
686 Points the Denver Broncos are on pace for, which would top New England's record of 589 set in 2007.
8 Touchdowns for the Jacksonville Jaguars, two fewer than New Orleans TE Jimmy Graham has scored.
32-3 Home record of the eight division leaders.
1949 The last time a Philadelphia Eagle led the NFL in rushing. Eagles running back LeSean McCoy leads the NFL in rushing with 777 yards.
46.7 Average points scored per game, which if it holds would be the highest in NFL history.

Casino destinations around the world
Feeling lucky? You can visit one of these gambling centers around the world to spin the wheel, roll the dice and place your bet. Hold on to your hat – and your wallet.
Las Vegas
Billed as "the entertainment capital of the world," the collection of casino resorts offer gambling, entertainment, shopping and fine dining. From the Strip to Fremont Street, the glittering lights shining in the middle of the desert have drawn gamers since 1931. You'll find slot machines everywhere from coffee shops to the airport boarding gates. Many hotels offer free lessons for novices.
Las Vegas has more than 1,122 casinos and 50,000 hotel rooms. Seventeen of country's 20 largest hotels are located on the Strip.
MORE INFORMATION: 702-892-0711 or visitlasvegas.com
Monte Carlo
For more than 150 years, elegant sophistication has greeted gamers at one of the world's first major casinos, the Casino de Monte-Carlo. You can try your hand alongside the world's rich and famous in gaming rooms decorated with stained glass, paintings and sculptures. A strict dress code is upheld: All men must wear coats and ties – with no tennis shoes.
Monaco likes to keep the money rolling in, not out, which is why residents of the country are forbidden to enter the gaming rooms of the casino. The Monaco Grand Prix route passes the casino, which has also appeared in a number of James Bond films.
Four other casinos with more relaxed dress codes are also located in the principality.
MORE INFORMATION: 212-286-3330 or visitmonaco .com
Atlantic City
It's called the "gambling capital of the East Coast," and more than 33 million people flock each year to this seaside resort. Twelve casinos sit along the city's famous Boardwalk. The city was the inspiration for the American version of the Monopoly board game and the HBO series "Boardwalk Empire."
Channel your inner beauty queen at the Atlantic City Convention Center, the longtime former home of the Miss America pageant. Place your head within the rhinestone tiara of an interactive statue of longtime pageant host Bert Parks to hear a recorded playback of him singing his "There she is ..." line. The contest is now held in Las Vegas.
MORE INFORMATION: 888-228-4748 or atlantic citynj.com
Aruban casinos offer blackjack, craps, roulette and baccarat, and are known as the birthplace of "Caribbean stud" poker. The carnival-like atmosphere greets veteran gamers and novices alike. If you lose, hit the beach.
MORE INFORMATION: aruba.com
Nearly 30 million people visit Asia's gambling capital near Hong Kong. The former Portuguese colony fuels the fusion of European and Chinese cultures seen in everything from churches to casinos. Most of the gaming resorts are along the waterfront on the southern side of the peninsula. By one measure, it's now the gambling capital of the world, taking in more revenue than longtime champ Las Vegas.

Introduction: The overall goal(s) of the Digestive Diseases Research Core Center at the University of Chicago, facilitated by the Administrative Core, will be to continue to foster and expand gastrointestinal-related research by its clinical and basic science faculty, particularly in the areas of IBD, and the immunology, inflammation, and microbiology of the Gl tract. This will be accomplished by offering special expertise, analytical services, Pilot &Feasibility and Enrichment Programs and support for young investigators seeking preliminary data for new research initiatives related to digestive diseases, as well as in aiding established investigators with their digestive diseases-related research. It is strongly anticipated that the Administrative Core will continue to play a central role in expanding IBDrelated research at the University, as well as locally and at a national level.

You had to know Round 2 was coming after last week's earth-shaking news:
OT: U.S. Men's National Team vs. Mexico – 2014 FIFA World Cup Qualifying
The U.S. Men's National Team heads to Estadio Azteca on Tuesday, March 26, to face Mexico in the Final Round of 2014 FIFA World Cup Qualifying in Mexico City.

OT: World Cup Open Thread
Will the Germans or the Uruguayans(?) come home with third place? Why do I love the German national anthem so much?
En Espanol
The real reason for the World Cup upsets is...
Wow! of all the problems to have... yes, now scientists have now proven that the Jabulani soccer ball being used at the World Cup is "too perfect".
Yup, you read correctly, "too perfect".

OT: UM athletes as Brazilian soccer stars
So I came across this website that allows you to input your own first name, last name and number and it generates what your Brazilian soccer jersey would look like.
So of course I decided to have some fun and see what some of Michigan's best athletes would look like in the World Cup. Some of them are pretty hilarious. Enjoy!

- Darius Morris - MORRALDO
- Stu Douglass - STAO
- Evan Smotrycz - EVUNDO
- Denard Robinson - DENSON

- Steve Schilling - SHILLACA PERES
- Martavious Odoms - CLAUDIO ODEIRO
- Craig Roh - RAO

- Cazzie Russell - CAZZIISCO
- Glen Rice - GLAO
- Zia Combs - CINHO
Add any others you can come up with!
World Cup - Day 15
So last day before the Round of 16.
First game is the much anticipated Brazil vs. Portugal. Both teams are top 5 in FIFA rankings and both have looked good. Both teams are essentially in the next round so the outcome is more about seeding.
The 2nd morning game is North Korea Ivory Coast. Sadly Ivory Coast would need a Portugal loss and to make up like 9 points in goal diff to pass to the next round.
In the afternoon we start with Chile and Spain, both very good teams (Chile was #2 in the CONMEBOL conference). Spain needs a win as they currently sit tied with Switzerland with 3 points (and up 1 on goal difference). Chile needs at least a tie to pass first. If they lose then it all depends on the other game. If the Swiss beat Honduras and Spain wins you would have a 3 way tie with 6 points and it'll come down to goal difference.

Skip to comments.FDIC Statistics: Read 'em and Weep
Posted on 08/22/2012 1:33:08 PM PDT by Kartographer
Just following up with citations and illumination on the whole propaganda meme that is the FDIC, because, as far as I can tell, the vast majority of people think that the FDIC is a magical, omnipotent entity that has infinite resources and will magically swoop in to "take care of them" like a magic flying unicorn. This is what happens when you have a civilization filled with emotional children with exactly ZERO critical thinking skills. You have to hand it to the Communist infiltrators. That did a damn good job of brainwashing and psychologically destroying four generations of human beings.
Per the Q4 2011 FDIC Chief Financial Officer's report to the Board, published on March 30, 2012, the FDIC's Deposit Insurance Fund had a balance of $11.8 billion dollars.
(Excerpt) Read more at barnhardt.biz ...
The FDIC is government, how can anything go wrong?
Well it could be something 'unexpected' happens. ;-)
Nonsense. Feds will make good on the deposits. Otherwise, it's an immediate worldwide collapse. A default on this guarantee would be as catastrophic as a default on sovereign debt.
Same way they pay treasury debt.
By printing more money?
That will work.
It will work as much (or little) for FDIC deposits as it will for treasury debt.
So borrow more is your answer? Yeah that will work.
By issuing treasury securities.
As long as the US can pay treasury debt, it will also pay its FDIC obligations.
So borrow more?
I'm simply stating an opinion that fedgov will give as much priority to making good on FDIC guarantees as it does on paying its sovereign debt. As long as it can pay treasury debt, it will also back up the FDIC.
I've very little trust in our Federal Government....
That is how we paid for the Civil War, WW1, WW2 and everything else.
Interest rates are near historic lows. The government is able to borrow gigantic mountains of money for next to nothing.
On page 2 notice the change in anticipated failures for 2011 compared to 2010.
With our back up against a fiscal cliff I don't see it. The money has to come from somewhere and pretty soon borrowing it won't be and option.
It's not the same magnitude. We're talking the mother of all bank runs as investors all over the world flee US banks.
I've very little trust in our Federal Government....
Then you have more than I do:) Fedgov can be trusted to act in its own interest, and a bank run of that size would be disastrous to it.
JP Morgan:
Total Assets $1.8 TTT
Total Derivatives Exposure: $78 TTT
Total Assets: $1.2 TTT
Total Derivatives Exposure: $56 TTT
Bank of America:
Total Assets: $1.4 TTT
Total Derivatives Exposure: $53 TTT
Top 25 commercial banks:
Total Assets: $8.3 TTT
Total Derivatives exposure: $249 TTT
If Europe crash and burns as it's more than likely to, then the loss in derivatives will be a might blow to these banks.
I agree, but such an event would not be confined to the FDIC. I just don't see a scenario where the FDIC defaults, but the dollar and treasuries are intact.
If you don't have it and you can't borrow and you have to pay it then you print it and what's it worth then?
Why not?
Who are going to borrow from? The Fed with printed money?
Fact is...I think there's plenty of politicians and others...that would like nothing more than a "re-set" of everything. Of course..only if they are in charge of the "re-set".
Individuals, companies, or foreign governments.
We have borrowed money since 1835.
The treasury holds debt auctions where it sells bonds, bills and notes.
Demand for US treasuries is strong right now as they are seen as a safe haven to investors.
Time to go feed the flying unicorns now.
The well isn't bottomless that is Obamathink.
Take a look here:
What is your point?
As a percentage of GDP our public debt is lower than many industrial nations.
The UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Canada and Japan all have a higher debt-to-GDP ratio.
Must be nice living in the land of money trees. Your answer to a problem is to borrow more money when we can't payoff what we owe now. Keep borrowing and see where that gets us.
But I think you can't grasp the point, you must live in the land of money trees and flying magic unicorns.

I had an early appointment today and woke up to 34F. Now, I live in Phoenix Arizona. Also called, "The Valley Of The Sun". To say the least, I was ill prepared and in need of some cold weather gear. This was my fast solution.
Using some thin rubber gloves I had, I covered them with cotton gloves to insulate the rubber. It worked quite well for cold wind and no moisture. This would be useless if water where involved. Oh look the Rosemary is flowering. Its soooo cold!

Key factors in the surge in oil production:
Producers have a newfound ability to squeeze oil out of rock once thought too difficult and expensive to tap. Drillers can drill horizontally into long, thin seams of shale and other rocks that hold oil.
A long period of high oil prices has given drillers the cash and the motivation to spend the large sums required to develop new techniques and search new places for oil.
Production in the Gulf of Mexico, which slowed after BP's 2010 well disaster and oil spill, has begun to climb again. Huge recent finds there are expected to help growth continue.
A natural-gas glut forced drillers to dramatically slow natural-gas exploration about a year ago. Drillers suddenly had plenty of equipment and workers to shift to oil.

Angry Birds On Thin Ice pictures and hands-onPocket-lint
Angry Birds On Thin Ice is a new board game of the popular mobile game that you've no doubt have installed on your phone.
Not being able to resist an afternoon skipping work, we quickly got to play, erhem, we mean work testing it to see whether you should bother.
Created by Mattel, the idea is that you take turns to build structures for the pigs based on the diagrams on the cards and then knock them down again.
The first one to get to 1000 points wins the game, and players can opt to go easy and take their time by choosing easy to build and easy to destroy levels (100 points), or go for the glory with more challenging builds (300 points).
In the box you get a number of well made pieces to build the pigs' bases; three pigs, two construction hats for said pigs, the red and yellow bird and pretend planks of wood and glass. There is also a catapult, of course.
In play, and as you can imagine, things move a lot slower than in the mobile phone game version, although it is great fun building the structures only to know they will be smashed down 10 seconds later.
Designed for kids 5+, we haven't been able to get our little ones away from it.
If you want the full the fun of Angry Birds, but don't like the idea of letting your kids play constantly on your phone or iPad, this will certainly suffice. However at £20 you might struggle to justify it.
At internetmatters.org parents can find all the advice they will need to keep their children safe online. Designed specifically for parents, the site offers a wealth of up-to-date, unbiased information and advice about how to deal with online safety. Parents can learn about the latest issues and technologies, get great tips on how to talk about online safety with their children and get the best advice on dealing with issues and taking action.

Summary: Troy locksmith service provider Folkstone Locksmith Service shares some information on various locks that are available nowadays.
Troy, MI – Locksmith service in Troy, Folkstone Locksmith Service (http://TroyMILocksmithService.blogspot.com) thinks that these days most of the people are familiar with only one lock, which is usually used for the security for every home or any other property.

This Troy locksmith shares some details about several kinds of locks. The locks are divided into two basic categories: mechanical and electromechanical.
Mechanical: No external electricity is required to operate mechanical locks. A device inside the lock is the only factor responsible for locking and unlocking of the device. Such locks can be opened only with the use of a key that matches that particular device. Without the secondary item a person will not be able to open the lock and access whatever is behind it.
Electromechanical: Electromechanical locks require electricity in order to operate and protect the premise. An appropriate key is still a must to gain access, but the process of unlocking the device itself is electronic.
According to the locksmith service in Troy (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CBtdC_1IcM), most of the modern commercial building and houses have electromechanical locks as they provide more sophisticated protection. They are way more flexible for the business need. Another advantage of these type of locks is that they can be monitored.
The locksmith service in Troy hopes that the basic understanding of the various types of locks will help home and commercial property owners make smarter choices when choosing their locks.
About Troy Locksmith Service: Folkstone Locksmith Service is a locksmith service company in Troy. The company likes to help people in need of help, especially with emergency services. The company realizes that security is important, but that same security can be really stressful when it prevents the rightful owner from proper entry.
