Tasty, hearty and rather conventional.
Like the lemon meringue pies and shrimp cocktails it features throughout, Brit comedy-drama "Toast" is tasty, hearty and rather conventional. Helmed by TV director SJ Clarkson ("House," "Heroes"), this '60s-set, made-for-TV pic charts a boy's coming of age — and coming out — through a culinary sentimental education, and features a deliciously comic turn from Helena Bonham Carter as a semi-evil stepmother. "Toast" reaped high ratings when it aired locally, boosted partly by its association with nationally treasured food writer Nigel Slater, author of the source material. Offshore, it could have niche appeal theatrically if cooked right.
Nine-year-old Nigel (Oscar Kennedy) somehow just knows there must be more to life and lunchtime than the canned food and powdered desserts prepared by his fragile mother (Victoria Hamilton). The shelves are hardly overflowing with choices at the local grocery store in Wolverhampton, the small city in the British Midlands where they live, but Mother won't even try fresh cheese. Nigel's dad (Ken Stott), the choleric manager of a factory, is angered and annoyed with his son's fussiness about food. When his mother dies of unspecified causes (an effective, melancholy stretch), Nigel and his father live off toast, but there's little emotional nourishment in the household. Dad hires a cleaner, Joan Potter (Bonham Carter), a slatternly working-class woman whose sensual nature comes through in her short dresses and incredible gift for cookery. Nigel's dad and Joan start an affair, and eventually marry, much to snobbish little Nigel's disgust. It's not just that Joan could never replace his mother, or that she's a bit of a sharp-tongued bitch; the script (by Lee Hall, "Billy Elliot") makes it clear he dislikes her mainly because she's so "common," which rather daringly risks losing the viewer's sympathy. Years pass, and when Nigel is 16 (now played by Freddie Highmore), he opts to take home economics at school. Soon, he and Joan are competing for his father's approval by seeing who can make the best desserts, a kind of hand-to-whisk combat that plays too much like a screenwriter's contrivance. Likewise, closure is achieved a little too neatly with Nigel learning to accept his gay sexuality on practically the same day things come to a head at home, sending him off on a journey that will result in his future fame. (The real Slater plays the chef who gives Nigel his first break.) On paper, it all looks like a tidy happy ending, but there's something about fictional Nigel's hatred of his stepmother that leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Helmer Clarkson attempts to bustle auds away from the script's potential problems by keeping the tone largely light and cheery, with an assist from comic montages (nicely spliced by editor Liana Del Giudice) and glossy lensing (courtesy of Balazs Bolygo). Perfs teeter just on the edge of caricature, but the ever-reliable Stott and Bonham Carter are pros enough to reign in it in just enough to make the characters likable. Period details are spot-on, as to be expected from topnotch BBC productions, though the syrupy, trite score strikes an off note. Food styling, credited to Katharine Tidy, is relentlessly luscious.Toast

As fall semesters wind down at the country's colleges and universities, students will be pulling all-night study sessions to prepare for final exams. Ironically, the loss of sleep during these all-nighters could actually work against them performing well, says a Harris Health System sleep specialist.
Dr. Philip Alapat, medical director, Harris Health Sleep Disorders Center, and assistant professor, Baylor College of Medicine, recommends students instead study throughout the semester, set up study sessions in the evening (the optimal time of alertness and concentration) and get at least 8 hours of sleep the night before exams.
"Memory recall and ability to maintain concentration are much improved when an individual is rested," he says. "By preparing early and being able to better recall what you have studied, your ability to perform well on exams is increased."
As head of the Harris Health Sleep Disorders Center, a nationally certified facility by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, Alapat and his staff perform about 1,200 sleep studies a year to evaluate patients for a variety of sleep disorders, including apnea, insomnia, restless legs syndrome, narcolepsy and chronic fatigue syndrome.
College-aged students ideally should get 8-9 hours of sleep a night. Truth is, most students generally get much less.
"Any prolonged sleep deprivation will affect your mood, energy level and ability to focus, concentrate and learn, which directly affects your academic performance," Alapat adds.
Throw in the occasional all-nighter, consumption of caffeinated beverages like coffee, tea or energy drinks, and students are at risk for developing insomnia, as well as increased risks for alcohol abuse and motor vehicle accidents.
"A lot of college students graduate high school and leave the protective family environment where they have curfews or set bed times," Alapat says. "In college, they don't have these guidelines for sleep and recognize that they can stay up late. This likely contributes to the sleep deprivation seen commonly in college students."
Alapat's recommendations:• Get 8-9 hours of sleep nightly (especially before final exams)• Try to study during periods of optimal brain function (usually around 6-8 p.m.) • Avoid studying in early afternoons, usually the time of least alertness• Don't overuse caffeinated drinks (caffeine remains in one's system for 6-8 hours)• Recognize that chronic sleep deprivation may contribute to development of long-term diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease
If suffering from bouts of chronic sleep deprivation or nightly insomnia that lasts for more than a few weeks, Alapat suggests consulting a sleep specialist.

Chuck Norris isn't 'sweet' on sugar substitutes
Delivers Part 3 on secret ingredients snuck into your food
Chuck, I've really enjoyed your series on sugars. So hit me with it: Anything wrong with sugar substitutes? Any one better than the others? –"Substituting" in Sugar Land, Texas
In Part 1, I began to explain the pros and cons of sugars and the effects of too little or too much glucose in the body. I then proceeded to define some of the most common sugars you'll find hiding in foods and drinks, starting with table sugar, "natural" sugars (raw, brown, etc.) and evaporated cane juice.
In Part 2, I discussed fructose and high-fructose corn syrup, which are pervading the market and processed foods on nearly every shelf in the grocery. (Even some of the "natural sweeteners" below, such as agave nectar, are nothing more than lots of fructose – up to 97 percent! Agave nectar is to fructose as evaporated cane juice is to sucrose.)
If you missed either part, you can find Part 1 here and Part 2 here. This week, I will discuss the sugar substitutes and artificial sweeteners.
The Food and Drug Administration has approved six, calorie-free sweeteners that are much sweeter than sugar: sucralose (Splenda), neotame, saccharin (SugarTwin, Sweet'N Low), acesulfame potassium (Sunett, Sweet One), aspartame (Equal, NutraSweet) and stevia.
To be precise, artificial sweeteners are just one type of sugar substitute. The Mayo Clinic classifies the others as sugar alcohols (polyols, such as mannitol, sorbitol, lactitol, maltitol and xylitol), novel sweeteners (such as stevia extracts, tagatose and trehalose) and natural sweeteners (such as agave nectar, date sugar, fruit juice concentrate, honey, maple syrup and molasses).
But be careful when reading articles, as authors erroneously lump all sugar substitutes into the category of artificial sweeteners, but they are not all created equal, either.
All of these often are marketed as "sugar-free," "diet" and even "natural" and are found in a variety of food and beverages, such as soft drinks, ice cream, yogurt, chewing gum, canned foods, baked goods, jelly, candy and fruit juice.
The American Heart Association and American Diabetes Association have given token blessing to the use of artificial sweeteners, but only because of the epidemic problems added sugars are causing, from obesity to heart disease.
The Mayo Clinic explained that most sugar substitutes are harmless in small amounts: "According to the National Cancer Institute and other health agencies, there's no sound scientific evidence that any of the artificial sweeteners approved for use in the U.S. cause cancer or other serious health problems. And numerous research studies confirm that artificial sweeteners are generally safe in limited quantities, even for pregnant women."
Kimber Stanhope, a nutritional biologist at the University of California, Davis, succinctly put it, "Short-term data (suggest) they're safer than table sugar" because they won't cause spikes in blood sugar or weight gain.
Stanhope added, "I use them because I can't afford the extra calories."
Though having no or few calories and fewer glucose and fructose molecules sounds like a step in the right direction, Holly Strawbridge, executive editor of the Harvard Heart Letter and co-author of a Cleveland Clinic book on coronary artery disease, wrote, "There's more to the artificial sweetener story than their effect on weight."
First, the health dilemma lies in the fact that we don't know what consuming large amounts of artificial sweeteners over a long period of time might do.
For example, now that fructose has permeated the food and beverage market, a few decades down the road, we may discover far greater negative effects that these synthetic sugar substitutes have.
Secondly, Strawbridge pointed to the work of Dr. David Ludwig, an obesity and weight-loss specialist at Harvard-affiliated Boston Children's Hospital. Ludwig warned that people can be easily tempted to use artificial sweeteners to justify eating other bad foods. The AHA and ADA concur.
"I'm drinking diet soda, so it's OK to have cake," Ludwig said as an example.
Dr. Anthony Komaroff, M.D., editor-in-chief of Harvard Health Publications, explained, "The calories removed from the diet by the sugar-for-sweetener swap may sneak back in, in the form of refined carbohydrates and low-quality fats."
In addition, Dr. Mark Hyman, author of "The UltraMind Solution," explained that sugar alcohols, which are carbohydrates that occur naturally in certain fruits and vegetables but also can be manufactured, "can cause significant gas and bloating."
Thirdly, Strawbridge added, "In the Multiethnic Study of Atherosclerosis, daily consumption of diet drinks was associated with a 36 percent greater risk for metabolic syndrome and a 67 percent increased risk for type 2 diabetes."
According to Strawbridge, because artificial sweeteners are far more potent than table sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, overstimulation of sugar receptors could desensitize your ability to taste naturally sweet foods, such as fruit, and make them "less appealing and unsweet foods, such as vegetables, downright unpalatable." Hence, you opt to consume artificially colored, nonnutritive synthetic foods in lieu of more natural nutritional foods.
Also, citing the San Antonio Heart Study – in which participants who drank more than 21 diet drinks per week were twice as likely to become overweight or obese as people who didn't drink diet soda – Strawbridge noted that artificial sweeteners may trick us from associating sweetness with caloric intake. So in the end, we actually crave more sweets, eat calories we wouldn't have eaten and end up gaining weight after all. Health and neuroscience research from Yale University supports the same conclusions.
Lastly, artificial sweeteners may be as addictive as natural forms of sugar for the very reason that they are much sweeter. In studies examining the behavior of rats that were exposed to cocaine, when given a choice between intravenous cocaine and oral saccharin, most chose saccharin.
Next week, I will discuss which sugar substitute that my wife, Gena, and I prefer, as well as give you 10 tips for overcoming your sugar cravings and reducing their tyranny over your life and diet.

Depending on the acoustical circumstances, Jones sings into a Neumann KMS 104 cardioid or a KMS 105 super-cardioid. Both microphones deliver the signature Neumann studio sound with the robust handling required for a live performance. "Above all else, the most critical sound reinforcement tool that we bring with us to every date is Norah's Neumann vocal microphone," said Dicus. "She's been using some variant of a Neumann microphone or a Neumann capsule with a Sennheiser RF transmitter for almost all of her touring career. On those rare occasions where we're asked to use something else, we miss the studio-quality high-end and lifelike sibilance that we get 'out of the box' with the KMS 104/105."
Sennheiser e 935 wired vocal microphones provide pick-up for all backing vocals, and Sennheiser's classic MD 421 delivers robust electric bass. Dicus' drum sound relies on a collection of Sennheiser evolution 900 Series microphones. He explained, "A Norah Jones show requires consistent tone quality. Transparency is very important because we cannot hide behind loud guitars or screaming fans. Every nuance of each musician's performance is equally important to both the music and the sound reinforcement. With a typically busy tour day and many issues competing for our attention, we rely heavily on the performance of our tools. Neumann and Sennheiser consistently deliver."
Several of Jones' musicians use Sennheiser wireless personal monitors for hassle-free performance. Monitor engineer Russ Wilson remarked, "Sennheiser belt-packs are ideal for performance because of their size and weight. Their small form factor and light weight allow easy integration into any wardrobe choices, plus Sennheiser wireless monitoring has always been ideal for Norah and her band, both in terms of tone and reliability. And Sennheiser's support staff have been extremely helpful around the world in maintaining consistent RF performance."
After a winter respite, Jones and her band will kick off a 36-city tour in early March.

Doctor bitch is shaping up to be a pretty evil monster.
Deb needs to die.
Without spoilers (if you can help it) how did this one stack up? Another good one for the season? Move the story? Oh shite moments? Meh?
In the end, I think it's going to become apparent to Dexter that he was never what they told him he was. Not sure if the doc did it to him on purpose (to see if she could create serial killers) or accidentally. Like the way he jettisoned the whole "dark passenger" bit a season or so ago, he's going to have to come to grips with the fact that they turned him into a serial killer. When he does, he'll do the noble thing and take his own life...after offing the doc of course.
Doctor bitch is shaping up to be a pretty evil monster.
I have found this season mediocre, especially coming off last season. If this is the final season they need to get this shite going. I have a hard time believing he would be opening up to this Dr as well.
Also, wtf with not even showing Dex kill that dude? They are skimping on what we've all come to love about the show

I need help to set up a reverse proxy server that can proxy on port 80 a custom application on localhost port 9090. Even though I have added an external application to the virtual host, nothing is happening, so it's clear I am missing at least a step. Is there any full documentation about setting up a reverse proxy server on LiteSpeed, with instructions regarding rewrite, external apps, etc.? Thanks,
Here is the document: http://www.litespeedtech.com/how-tos.html#qa_sproxy How to set up LiteSpeed Web Server as a reverse proxy server? LiteSpeed Web Server can be used as a transparent reverse proxy server running in front of any web server or application server that supports HTTP protocol, to help improve the scalability, performance and security of the whole system. Please set up in the WebAdmin console according to the following steps: Define an External Application with Type Web Server. Set Address to the IP address and port used by the backend web server. Two choices: Define a Proxy Context with Web Server set to the External Application just defined. Define a Script Handler with Type Web Server, and Handler Name set to the External Application just defined. If customer application is setup as name based vhost(need host header matches with server name), proxy request "Host" header needs to be modified in rewrite rule. Here is how: say web site domain name is "www.example.com", it proxy request to backend, backend is defined as a web server with name "node1", it requires domain name to be "node1.example.com", the rewrite rule (web admin console->Configuration->Virtual Hosts->www.example.com->Rewrite) should be ^/(.*)$ http://node1/$1 [P,E=Proxy-Host:node1.example.com]
Thank you! I found a third solution that I will document a bit later. But now I have an additional issue. Is it possible to get the proxy password protected? I tried to emulate the password protection found in the example but that doesn't work since it wants the proxied app to be password protected.

The sales numbers for Fallout: New Vegas have arrived, and you can almost see the smiles on the faces at Bethesda as they have confirmed that they have shipped over 5 million units. The news is even more surprising, considering that the game has been criticized for the number of bugs the title had at release.
Bethesda claims that an upcoming patch will address the bug issues and fix the majority of the issues that players are complaining about. It is unknown when the patch will arrive for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC versions of the title.
We do know, however, that sales don't seem to be slowing down; and Bethesda is confirming that retailers are already ordering more copies to keep it in stock over the holiday season.

Here is another comparison with Audi coming out on top over BMW but it is from Car and Driver yet again. Previously, Car and Driver picked the Audi S6 over the new F10 M5 and even the E55 AMG despite a huge gap in horsepower. Well, this time the cars are more evenly matched but Audi still triumphs. Why? Well, there are several good reasons including the fact that the Gran Coupe is simply silly expensive even when equipped with the 6 cylinder.
Car and Driver says the Gran Coupe is just too expensive for what it is. It is beautiful inside and out but it can not back those looks up either. So we have an expensive and under-performing car that is more about style than substance. Isn't that what Audi used to be?
The 640i price came out to a whopping $105,695. Wow. Over $100k for a base model? The A7 starts $16,000 LESS to begin with. Even with options it came out to $67,170. That's a difference just shy of $40,000. This isn't a joke.
So how much better does the BMW perform for that huge price difference? Well, that's the problem, it doesn't perform better. The Audi at 4178 pounds with a supercharged 3.0 liter V6 outpaced the 640i considerably with a 13.7@103 in the 1/4 mile. The Gran Coupe did a 14.1@98 or in other words got spanked. The extra 5 horsepower the Gran Coupe has on paper sure did not show up on the drag strip. The BMW is heavier but only 115 pounds heavier and is not routing its power to all four wheels. The Audi motor is more impressive.
So acceleration is in the Audi's favor but what about handling? Close between the two with the Audi just edging the skidpad .90g to .89g and the BMW just edging the slalom 44.3 to 44.0. Basically a wash.
Car and Driver simply feels the A7 is the better car. It offers more leg room, more trunk space, better feedback, and better driving dynamics. My how things have changed.
Car and Driver summed it up well:
In the end, it wasnt even close. An A7 with many of the BMWs gizmos can still approach 85 large, but the 640i wouldve needed a standard flux capacitor to stage a comeback. The A7 isnt perfect, but it does more with less, winning most of our subjective categories despite its lower price. It may not weaken the knees like the Gran Coupe, but its still exceedingly pretty. And it doesnt exact as dear a toll for its beauty.
BMW simply isn't what it used to be or perhaps Audi is way better than it used to be. The truth is likely a bit of both.

Well done Audi! Congrats!
Hopefully BMW will rethink its price philosophy before it's too late.
Something is very wrong when a car needs $30k (or 30%!!!!) in options!
This reminds me of a 120d someone pictured while visiting the BMW Welt in Munich, displaying a whopping 60.000 EUR pricetag. Hell, that's even more than a 1M! For a base engine 1series??

"So we have an expensive and under-performing car that is more about style than substance. Isn't that what Audi used to be?"
Ouch baby, very ouch!
True though...
I don't get when Audi got better at building drivers cars for less money than BMW. Now the BMW is the pretty one with the nice interior that is way too expensive for what it is.
singletrack - 08-22-2012, 02:21 PM
I just haven't driven enough of the brand new cars from either side to form a solid opinion. The car rags in this country are hard to trust for me as well.

Fortunately, very few people who experience low back pain will require a surgery to obtain relief from their discomfort. But if conservative treatments haven't resolved your pain within six months and your doctor has determined that your disk joint is the source of your chronic pain, you might be a candidate for disk replacement surgery.
Spinal fusion — the most common type of back surgery for painful joints — involves fusing two or more vertebrae together. Disk replacement surgery is a newer procedure that replaces the problem disk joint with an artificial one made of metal and plastic.
In general, it appears that spinal fusion and disk replacement procedures are equally effective. But in some cases, intensive rehabilitation programs appear to work just as well as either type of surgery — at a lower cost and with fewer complications.

I made a serendipitous discovery the other day, a discovery that countless bakers have made throughout time eternal. On a quest to make chocolate chip cookies it was discovered by my young charges that no chocolate chips remained in the cupboard. Instead, we found a bag of Hershey bars. So, we chopped them up into large chip-sized pieces and used them instead.
You know what happens when you use chunks of chocolate bars instead of chocolate chips in cookies?
First, they're bigger, so you get these pockets of chocolate explosions when you eat the cookies. Second, the edges melt into the cookie dough, permeating more of the cookie with chocolatey-ness. Chocolate chips are formulated to hold their shape while baking (less cocoa butter); chocolate bars are made to melt the moment they enter your mouth.
We used milk chocolate bars for this recipe because that's what we had. While milk chocolate was a favorite when I was a kid, it is less so now. I usually prefer the darkest chocolate available.
However, in this recipe, the milk chocolate chunks work great. They give a warm creaminess to the cookie that wouldn't be there if you used semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate. That said, use whatever chocolate you like.
We also brown the butter in the first step of the recipe. Browned butter adds a wonderful nutty aroma to the dough. It's an added step, but one well worth doing.
From the recipe archive. First posted 2013.
Browned Butter Chocolate Chunk Cookies Recipe
PrintWe brown the butter first in this recipe because browned butter adds wonderful flavor to the dough. If you are short on time or don't want to bother, you can skip browning the butter, just start with room temperature butter.
- 1 cup (2 sticks, 8 ounces, 225 g) unsalted butter
- 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 9 ounces of milk chocolate (or semi-sweet or dark if you prefer) bars, roughly chopped into chunks, about 2 cups
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
1 First brown the butter. Melt the butter in a medium sized, thick-bottomed, stainless steel saucepan (use stainless steel so you can tell when the butter has browned) on medium heat.
Continue to cook while the butter goes through various stages of bubbling up and releasing its moisture. Whisk frequently over several minutes.
When you start to smell the nutty aroma of the butter browning, and you can whisk aside some of the foam to see small browned bits at the bottom of the pan, remove from heat and pour off into a bowl. Do not dawdle at this point as it is easy for the butter to go from browned to burnt.
2 Place the flour, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon in a bowl and vigorously whisk together.
3 Preheat oven to 350°F. Pour browned butter into the bowl of a stand-up mixer (if you don't have a mixer, you can just beat by hand). Add the sugars and beat until smooth. Add the eggs, beating after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and beat for 3 more minutes.
4 Stir the flour mixture into the butter sugar mixture a third at a time. Stir in the chocolate chunks and the nuts (if using). Up to this point you can make ahead a day or two and store the cookie dough in the refrigerator until ready to cook.
5 Line cookie sheets with Silpat or parchment paper (or just lightly butter rimmed cookie sheets. Spoon out heaping tablespoon hunks of batter onto the cookie sheets, separated by at least 2 inches, allowing room for the cookies to spread as they cook. You may need to work in batches.
6 Cook at 350°F for about 12 minutes, the edges of the cookies should be just a little browned. Remove from the oven, let cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes. Then remove the cookies to cool completely on a rack.

TUPELO – The 2010 Tupelo Elvis Presley Festival is expected to make between $80,000 and $90,000, according to festival organizers.
At Tuesday's board meeting of the Downtown Tupelo Main Street Association, treasurer John Avila said the numbers aren't completely finalized but net profit is expected to come in around $88,000 to $89,000.
Avila also was this year's co-chair of the festival, which was June 4-6.
Debbie Brangenberg, executive director of Main Street, said the profit would be in the mid- to high $80,000s, depending on the amounts of outstanding bills.
Avila said the numbers are a tad below last year's figures, but he attributed the difference to a 22 percent increase in expenses this year.
"Overall, we feel it was a pretty successful festival," Avila said.
The profit continues a positive streak for the festival. In 2009, the festival, which is produced by the Main Street Association, made about $93,000, even though Main Street estimated it would break even.
The 2008 festival made $80,000.
The earnings came after an aggressive effort from the organizers to cut costs and make the festival pay for itself. In 2007, the festival lost about $46,000 and Main Street had to wipe out its rainy-day fund.
Now, the rainy-day fund has $50,000 – fulfilling one of the conditions from the Tupelo Convention and Visitors Bureau to continue its $50,000 sponsorship of the event.

Attack of the Zebra Mussel
Does mussel fouling affect mooring chain strength?
For 20-plus years, I have removed my mooring buoy from the water at the end of the sailing season on Lake Champlain. This year, however, I was surprised to find that my mooring chain was totally covered by zebra mussels. The 3/8-inch chain was about 3 inches thick with mussels when I hauled it up! Do the zebra mussels affect the chain strength or its life expectancy?

For nearly 20 years the Vans Warped Tour has been making the summer a little more enjoyable with mosh pits and multiple stages of music.
But what started as a punk rock summer camp has branched out to a variety of genres of music and a seemingly endless list of artists, including coveted spots for local musicians.
The tour kicks off this weekend and for the first time will have two dates at the Pomona Fairplex, set for Thursday, June 20 and Friday, June 21.
If youâre headed to the shows, which will feature Black Veil Brides, Reel Big Fish and Motion City Soundtrack, among others, here are some Inland Empire artists to support.
Rancho Cucamongaâs punk-inspired Assuming We Survive has been tapped to play Pomonaâs Warped Tour dates for two years in a row. The band will be on the Ernie Ball Stage between noon and 2 p.m. on Friday, June 21.
The band has a new EP, âGet Busy Livingâ for the summer that has some notable guest starsâ"Dan Arnold from A Static Lullaby and Tyson Stevens from Scary Kids Scaring Kids.
Visit www.assumingwesurvive.com for more on the band.
While the Vans Warped Tour is known for its punk-influenced bands, the Chase Walker Band, has more in common with Stevie Ray Vaughan than Joe Strummer.
Led by 14-year-old guitar phenom Chase Walker, who is from Riverside, the blues-based band is getting a lot of attention and has been playing around the country.
Weâre talking B.B. King level talent from Walker. Even at his young age, he is clearly a guitar hero.
The Chase Walker Band will play the tour on Thursday, June 20.

Thailand to Avoid Currency War as Ghost of 1997 Crisis Looms
Daniel Ten Kate and Yumi TesoThailand's Finance Minister Kittiratt Na-Ranong said the central bank should avoid fighting market forces to stem currency gains, heeding a lesson from the 1997 Asian financial crisis.
"The shadow of 1997 is there," Kittiratt said in an interview in Bangkok. "I will never encourage Bank of Thailand to go and trade against the market-determined rate unless it's only part of the daily stability, the weekly stability."
The baht fell from a 17-month high this week, snapping a seven-week rally, amid speculation the central bank will intervene to halt gains. December export growth missed analysts' estimates, prompting concern that the currency's appreciation will pare shipments that account for about two-thirds of the economy.
Thailand is among emerging market nations struggling to handle increased inflows as monetary easing in the U.S., Japan and other developed economies spurs demand for higher-yielding assets. Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra raised the minimum wage throughout the country this month, putting more pressure on exporters as the government implements stimulus measures aimed at boosting purchasing power among Thailand's 67 million people.
"In the short term, if I can hope for, I would like to see a little bit weaker baht," Kittiratt said yesterday before flying to Davos, Switzerland, to attend the World Economic Forum. "For the exporters, a strong baht really pushed them into pressure. While they are adjusting themselves to higher human resources costs, a weak Thai baht may help them."
Baht Devaluation
In 1997, Thailand devalued the baht to shore up a faltering economy, abandoning its policy of pegging the currency to the U.S. dollar, a move that left a legacy debt of $35 billion from bailing out financial companies. International reserves fell by 31 percent to $27 billion in 1997, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Reserves have increased more than sixfold since then to $182 billion last month.
Lower interest rates would discourage inflows into the country, Kittiratt said, adding that the measure could be a "double-edged sword." He said the central bank should employ measures to prevent the baht from rising or falling sharply while avoiding any moves that are unsustainable.
"The impact on this would be only a very small basis point of the exchange rate," Kittiratt said, referring to central bank intervention to keep the baht stable. "There won't be any effort against trading against this rate to any significant level."
The baht advanced 2.5 percent this year versus the dollar, the most among 11 major currencies in Asia. The SET Index has increased 4.1 percent, more than benchmarks in Indonesia, Singapore and Malaysia.
Fund Inflows
Global funds purchased $3.4 billion more of Thailand's sovereign debt than they sold this month through yesterday and poured a net $461 million into local equities, Thai Bond Market Association and stock exchange data show. Thailand's 10-year government bond yield was 3.73 percent, compared with 1.85 percent for similar-maturity U.S. Treasuries and 0.73 percent in Japan.
Kittiratt's remarks "lessen the pressure on the Bank of Thailand to intervene as the government is shifting attention to domestic demand from exports," said Nalin Chutchotitham, a Bangkok-based analyst at Kasikornbank Pcl. "A stronger baht benefits domestic consumption and investment by making imports cheaper. The government is also calling for lower interest rates and a rising baht makes the case of a rate cut stronger."
Thailand's inflation accelerated to 13-month high in December as subsidies failed to counter rising prices of food and fuel. Consumer prices rose 3.63 percent from a year earlier after an increase of 2.74 percent the previous month, official data showed on Jan. 2.
'Currency Attack'
Daily minimum wages have risen as much as 89 percent after two increases in the past year. Most factories are located in an area where wages rose to 300 baht per day last April, an average increase of 38 percent, according to the industry ministry.
Investors may be trying to "play catch-up" after the baht lagged behind other currencies last year, Bank of Thailand Governor Prasarn Trairatvorakul told reporters yesterday.
"From what we see, it's not a currency attack," he said. "The flows to attack the currency will try to dictate the market and try to build up the price. From what we see now, the selling and buying sides are not much different."
Another legacy of the 1997 crisis is a lack of investment due to concerns over the country's debt levels, which has led to persistent current-account surpluses, Kittiratt said. Thailand has had a current-account deficit only once since 1997, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
'Pleasant Deficit'
Over the long term, the government plans to invest in infrastructure to increase imports and reduce pressure on the currency, Kittiratt said. He has proposed spending 2 trillion baht ($67 billion) over seven and a half years on projects such as a railroad network to accelerate investments and put the current account into a deficit.
"We might not have to suffer with a future surplus," Kittiratt said. "It will be for me a pleasant deficit because we are going to invest into those imports that would help yield a long-term return to the country."

Cassie, sometimes I think my head would explode if I couldn't complain. LOL Nice goals again. Best wishes on that!
I'm continuing my new way of eating in the way I combine and space carbs and protein. I am currently following the 21-Day Metabolism Makeover (that is used in the Food Lovers Fat Loss System) by the guidelines I could find for free online and can boast that I lost 3 1/2 lbs. in the first four days. Followers are not supposed to weigh until the 22nd day, but I peeked.
The book alone (when found sold separately from the program system) costs more than I want to pay, even for a used copy, but I found a very similar book Diet-Free for Life that was written by a man who co-authored the Food Lovers Fat Loss System and from what I saw online it's pretty much the same guidelines. So I ordered that yesterday.
So my goals this week (part my own and part the metabolism makeover) until I learn something new will be:
Calorie minimum 1200
Saturated fat limit 10% of total calories
Dietary Cholesterol limit 250mg
Net carbs after deducting fiber 25g
Fiber 25g
Protein minimum 120g
Water 64 oz.
Exercise 5 days
Age 68, 5 feet tall
Highest weight ever in the fall of 2010 246 lbs.
FitDay starting weight 1/17/2011 240 lbs.
Weight 8/14/2014 lowest in a long time 224.2
Weight 9/23/2014 doctor visit 233
Easter Challenge Goal 220 Weight 1/26/15 236.8

Home › Coffeeroom › Decaffeinated Coffee › Have you ever wondered…
have any of you wondered if people in the CR have friends also in the CR and they know each other's usernames but pretend they don't know each other in certain conversations??
Yep. It's true. I know two other people in the CR. One also knows who I am. I am not sure if the other one has made the connection yet, or if he would even remember me (I was at his shabbos table once about a year ago, but he is also friends with the first person so my name may have come up through him).
I also know a few people and they know me.
I know everyone besides wolfish and mod 19
This name is already taken
So who's Joseph? There are many who would like to know.
I know a bunch of other people and they all know who i am! 🙂
I've had that a bunch of times with my friend on here. We have a kind of an agreement to pretend we don't know each other. I sometimes kind of bend the rules a bit, but I really, REALLY try not to.
If you're reading this, EDITED , have a fantastic summer!
Yes, I've had friends (family) both on the CR, and off, just reading (lurking).
My husband and I both have Accounts but he rarely posts. One of my friends called me out because he knew it had to be me due to a situation I posted about my on-laws. Oops!
I have a couple of people whom I know personally here IRL, one who is a very dear friend.
WIY I can't give that info it's classified an I was sworn to secrecy

"More basses, because you are so far away."
Eugene Ormandy
"I am proud to announce that our new bass player is none other than the justly acclaimed Didz Hammond, formerly of the Cooper Temple Clause. He has never shown anything but love, compassion and talent from the off."
Carl Barat
"I'm as confident as I can be. I think it's going to happen. I think Bass Pro is committed."
Anthony Gioia
"Then we played Fresno State and had a close 4-2 with them. Stephen Bass deserves a great deal of credit for that match."
Bobby Bayliss
"I think it's ironic that first Bass' case was dismissed, then Russell's case was dismissed. This dismissal puts the period on a tragic series of events."
Brian Kreisler
"(Bass) has a deep knowledge of the industry and the business as well as a keen understanding of our customers and the demands they face every day."
Carol Bartz
"I have assigned many of my father's basses to students, without endangering their lives. Also, they do no harm to the fingers."
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach
"Historically that (bass) number is way, way down. The same with threadfin — their numbers are up, but it's still way, way down from historic levels."
Chuck Armor
"This is usually a real good spot for bass fishing."
Charlie McClain
"I finally talked my dad into buying a bass boat."

Oduro leads Crew to 4-2 win over FC DallasAP , Associated Press
Sep. 29, 2013 11:55 PM ET
FRISCO, Texas (AP) — Columbus scoring leader Dominic Oduro had a goal and an assist to lead the Crew to a 4-2 victory over FC Dallas on Sunday night. FC Dallas' Kellyn Acosta, right, takes out Columbus Crew's Dominic Oduro (11) during the first half of an MLS soccer game Sunday, Sept. 29, 2013, in Frisco, Texas. (AP Photo/LM Otero)
The Crew (12-14-5) moved into a tie with New England for sixth place, a point away from the Eastern Conference's final playoff berth with three matches remaining. "The ball's in our court, putting pressure on those teams ahead of us," interim Columbus coach Brian Bliss said. FC Dallas (10-10-10) remained eighth in the Western Conference, five points out of fifth. "I think our results are deserving (of criticism)," FC Dallas coach Schellas Hyndman said, "and not just tonight. At the end of the day, it's all about results. "Our fans have to hold us higher, as we should be holding ourselves higher." Columbus took a 2-0 lead on goals by Federico Higuain (his 11th) and Jairo Arrieta (third) within the first 17 minutes. Higuain moved in alone to maneuver FC Dallas keeper Raul Fernandez out of position. Defender George John moved in to the goal and stopped Higuain's shot, but the ball bounced off of him and into the net in the ninth minute. Oduro set up Arrieta with a crossing pass in the 17th. He put the ball on his left foot and lifted it over Fernandez and off the crossbar. The ball bounced down, then back up into the top of the net. FC Dallas came back four minutes later when Blas Perez took a long pass from Mauro Diaz. Goalkeeper Matt Lampson came out, but Perez booted the ball past him into the right corner for his 11th goal. The Crew restored their two-goal margin in the 44th minute when Oduro picked up the ball from Chad Barson near midfield, beat two defenders and moved into the penalty area to send a shot past Fernandez. Oduro's 12th goal was unassisted. "Six of (Oduro's) goals have come from the wide right midfield and six up top. That shows ourselves, the team and the league he can score from anywhere," Bliss said. FC Dallas moved within 3-2 during the 54th minute when Diaz dribbled past a defender and Lampson to chip the ball in from near the left goalpost. Columbus' Bernardo Anor put the game away with his fourth goal in the 86th minute, assisted by Ethan Finlay. "It was pretty relieving for the team," Anor said. "We were ahead just 3-2 in the second period, but that goal gave us a little more space." © The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

In Mourning for Water Pressure
There was a slight hiccup when I mentioned that for a month this summer an eastern milksnake had lived under our water heater, poking his head out to wave at my husband while he sat on the toilet. Our young plumber, apparently, was deathly afraid of snakes, and decided to sit out in his truck and wait for his partner to arrive with the new water heater, rather than be anywhere near our basment, alone with an even hypothetical snake.
But the partner came and the snake did not and all was accomplished within four hours.
So we have reliable hot water and I should be happy as a clam. But I am not. No, dear reader, I am not. Because, you see, before we changed water heaters, our house had very high water pressure. Deliciously high water pressure. Our water pressure was my friend. It scrubbed dishes for me, it cleaned my hair down to the scalp, it filled the tub for children with minimal fuss and boredom for a waiting mother. I loved my water pressure. I could have bought the house just for the water pressure.
But that luscious, wonderful water pressure (110 psi) was much too high for city code, and would have invalidated the warranty on our new water heater. So the plumbers - at my request, mind you, THIS IS ALL MY OWN FAULT - installed a pressure reducing valve that brings our pressure down to code (75 psi) and preserves that precious warranty.
We have lost one third of our pressure.
It is like someone overnight picked up my house and moved it to Britain. My shower is a sad, pitiful thing. Oh, I have hot water, but what good is it when I must stand still as a stone under its weak dribble to stay warm? Where are my clouds of steam? Where is the force that detangles my hair without aid of a comb?
My kitchen faucet used to snap to attention with an audible thunk when I turned it on full blast, but now it is quiet and civilized, a demure, gentle thing. Poor faucet. I have emasculated you. You spray my dishes, but I know you're just going through the motions. There is no enthusiasm.
I am told that I will notice a difference when I get my next water bill. And I suppose our new state of European flaccidity is better for the environment. But oh, how I miss the surge and power of yesterday. Everything is changed forever.
Farewell, water pressure. I am glad I knew you.

The place we've just moved into (renting) has outrageously high water pressure. There's no such thing as a dribble!
I don't know about there, but over here (after years of drought and subsequent water restrictions - which were clearly not heeded by this places' owners) they have developed some amazingly strong shower heads that can make even the lowest water pressure seem like lots. AhHAH! This I can help with :) We had the same problem when we moved to our new house... it was awful. BUT. My brilliant husband discovered that you can buy a special shower head that increases the water somehow-- it's some kind of water conserving miracle :) It won't help with the dish washing, but it sure does make showers nice. :) It's WONDERFUL.
ReplyDeleteEvery time we've visited my parents in these past few years, John has secretly removed the water-saving washer from their shower for the duration of our stay because of their pithy water pressure.
That said, he might be able to help you out... If water pressure is more important to you than smaller water bills, that is.- Anonymous2/07/2013

Talk about bad fashion ideas and inevitably socks with sandals will come up. They conjure emails of dudes in college with hemp necklaces wearing white sports socks with Birkenstocks or, even worse, Adidas shower sandals while playing hacky-sack in the lawn.
BUT if you can get past that mental image, the world of socks and sandals is actually quite exciting. There's tons of super-cool, boldly printed socks and tights being produced these days, and if you embrace them, your wardrobe will instantly become more cheerful. Who doesn't like that?
Pick a theme:I bought these flowered Look From London socks on a whim at the American Folk Art Museum, of all places, and have found them indispensable in my wardrobe. I wear them with boots, saddle shoes and man-style oxfords, but my favorite thing to wear them with are these flower-heeled sandals.
Or not:Socks are also a great way to make your "fancier" shoes more casual. These heels are really comfortable but they are so prim and proper that they don't get much of an outing. Paired with plaid socks from Hue though, they lose their princess-ballerina aspect and are ready for a day out on the streets.So remember:1. Stay away from white socks and sporty sandals. Ask yourself, "Would my feet join a jam band?" If the answer is yes, start over and try again.
2. Matching is a cool way to go.Flowers with flowers! Polka dot explosions! Perfectly ROY G BIV combinations! If you can dream it, you can make it into a sock-and-shoe combo.3. But mismatching is awesome too.Pink socks with brown shoes, business plaids with ballerina pinks, sometimes the more ridiculous something sounds the better it looks, so just play around and see what happens!BONUS:Wearing socks with your sandals ensures that your feet won't get all grody from riding the train and walking down filthy streets or blisters from that part that rubs. PROTECT YOUR TOES!

Sharp satire or feel-good foolishness? Silly sap won out.
The number of levels on which these pros trade on their diminished reputations makes the movie an inside joke rather than a funny one. If Spade thinks otherwise, he's nucking futs.
There are laughs, to be sure, and some gleeful supporting performances, but after a promising start the movie sinks in a bog of sentiment.
Squanders endless opportunities for sharp satire, keeping to a steady course of tame, toothless comedy, and wrapping things up with the kind of vapid ending "The Brady Bunch" would be proud to call its own.

Available for iPhone and Android, it offers diners the ability to enter their credit cards once and pay with their phones whenever they get to the register. (Sweetgreen launched a nearly identical app earlier this year.)
The app also gives hungry customers the ability to search for the nearest location of the local favorite, as well as a menu and a way to track purchases. Every $100 spent earns a free birthday meal (Columbia Heights, 202-695-8100; Bethesda, 301-656-1772; Tenleytown, 202-695-8115; Merrifield, 703-988-4313; Tysons Corner, 703-288-0005).
