In high school, on the way home from a quiz bowl tournament, one of the girls on the team was reading a copy of Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles. Since I'm a bibliophile and always looking for something new to read, I asked her what the book was about. She described the general plot and I immediately decided I was not interested in the story. It sounded terribly dark and depressing (it is), and I just wasn't into that stuff back in high school. Well, I just finished watching Roman Polanski's 1979 film adaptation of the story, Tess, and I now regret my decision not to read the book, and I'll be seeking out a copy of it as soon as I can.
Tess is the story of the titular young woman, Tess Durberfield (Nastassja Kinski). Tess's family discovers that they are direct descendants of an old and lorded house, the D'Urbervilles, despite the fact that they, themselves, are nothing more than poor peasants. Her parents decide to offer Tess up to live with relations that are wealthy in the hopes that the money will eventually make its way down to them. Things go south for Tess when her cousin Alec (Leigh Lawson) tries to seduce and then rapes her. She becomes with child and flees. The child dies soon after birth, and Tess runs off to a new community where she meets Angel (Peter Firth), a minister's son that steals her heart. Because Tess's life is horrible, things go downhill when Angel discovers about her past.
This film is beautifully directed and shot. It won an Oscar for Best Cinematography in 1979, and although I probably think Woody Allen's Manhattan deserves that award, I don't have a problem with it winning. I've only seen two other Roman Polanski films, Chinatown and Rosemary's Baby, and while it isn't the all time classic that Chinatown is, it's definitely better than Rosemary's Baby. For a film that was nearly three hours in length, Polanski edited it in a way that managed to maintain my attention, for the most part. Maybe some scenes could have made it on the cutting room floor, but it was still masterfully done. There were a ton of great shots in the film that really turned the images on the screen into something more artful than the plot or acting happening (not that those were deficient).
The performances from the three leads were sublime. Nastassja Kinski's transformation from a weak and terrified girl to a strong and willful woman is just a sight to behold. She manages vulnerability, intensity, and intelligence better than many actresses can do either. She's also a knock-out to boot. Leigh Lawson is incredibly creepy as her cousin Alec, but he plays him with the kind of sleazy charm that the role requires as well. Peter Firth (I wonder if he's related to Colin) is also fantastic as Angel. He plays him so nicely and sweetly that his turn into a bit of a dick near the end of the film's second act still comes as a bit of a shock.
My feelings for this film are complicated to describe. I don't really think it's entertaining in the slightest. It's tragic in the way that a great Shakespeare play is. I would almost describe it as the anti-Jane Austen. It's nearly three hours of tragic romance, proto-feminism, and an examination of the silliness of Victorian class systems. So, while I don't think the movie is entertaining, I damn well believe that it's true art. It's complex and the material requires that you engage with the moral ambiguity in a serious and intelligent way. I want to read the book really bad as well as watch the film adaptation of Jude, the Obscure with Kate Winslet and Christopher Eccleston.
If you can handle three hour long high brow think pieces, this is an easy sell. If you're a fan of feminist literature and film, once again, it's an easy sell. I didn't think my dad would enjoy it all, but he came in about an hour in and seemed to enjoy the film. So maybe it's appeal is broader than I'm giving it credit for. I have a bit of an elitist and condescending tendency to think that any movie that has my brain in analytic mode the entire time isn't going to be enjoyed by other people, but I'm sort of an asshole that way. My next movie for this blog is the original film version of Gypsy, the one with Natalie Wood one not the Bette Midler version. I really doubt it will tickle my brain as much as this movie so hopefully my brain will be able to relax.
Final Score: A-

What to regret in your 20s, nothing
March 5, 2015
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Being in your 20s is hard. Your 20s is the decade of change, huge life decisions, and you have to accomplish all of this with limited time, money, and sleep.
You might feel like you are being pulled in a million different directions, and your teachers, parents and peers are all watching you very closely.
Blink-182 even has a whole song dedicated to everyone hating you when you're in your early 20s and there is even a so-called "Curse of being 23" in which you are pretty much a man-child stuck between college life and the real world.
But our forefathers did it, our elders did it, I mean even Britney Spears got through her 20s.
So how do you tackle these years and come out on top?
I interviewed a dozen people whom have "been there, done that" and shared their wisdom of the pursuit of happiness.
"The things I regret in my 20s are not things like missing class every once and awhile when I was up at Bakersfield College in 1963," said former BC nursing graduate Peggy Wendig.
"I am not telling you that skipping classes is a good thing, but I certainly don't regret it. I would beat myself up about it then, but now I look back and feel silly I was so worried about it," Wendig continued.
Others agreed that traveling and getting out of their comfort zone should have been a priority when they had the chance.
"The things I regret are not trying to find more things I was good at. I was scared to go out and do things because I wanted to stay in my comfort zone," Jillian Miller, 32, said.
"I wish I could have went and traveled with my girlfriends when we had the chance," Miller continued.
Miller's friend, Karen Mortez, agreed with her and added, "Yeah I agree. But oddly enough I regret not having kids earlier because I was so focused on getting a career, I didn't travel or have kids till I turned 34."
Life is meant to be what you want it to be whether that means having kids at a younger age or traveling the world. But some, such as Gregory Western, 64, just regret taking things so serious all the time.
"I wish I would have bucked up and kissed the cheerleaders, gone to those bonfires , and realized it's a good thing to not be serious all the time. I know all of this now, but I realized it in my 30s, which is too late to kiss cheerleaders, trust me," Western said.
Some others have no regrets at all and that's just the point Sherry Young, 45, wants to reiterate to Bakersfield's youth.
"I don't regret the little things that got to me when I was younger, I really wish I didn't care what people thought of me when I was 20-something, but I don't regret that I did. I wish other kids knew that. Don't spend so much time caring what people think of you and what you do. I am who I am today because of what I did in my 20s, and I am very happy," Young said.
Ed Lyndon, 52, agrees with that type of thinking, "I don't regret anything I did back then and that's the beauty of being so young. I made a lot of mistakes, but I made sure I fixed them. Just be a good person and a good member of society and you'll be alright."
It seems like the golden rules of your 20s include: Travel as much as possible, don't beat yourself up over little things, do what makes you happy, and overall – just don't regret anything, and learn from everything.

Transformers were cool back when you were between the ages of 5 and 11...a live action movie? Terrible idea to anyone who isnt one of those creepy 35 year old fan boys...
trucks and cars that turn into robots...ok for a saturday morning cartoon but a BIG waste of money to make a live action movie out of.

The things are getting bit serious with Tuesday Australia v Australia match turning out as clash for securing Ashes berths in Australia team for some of the fringe players.
Selectors have almost shortlisted bulk of the expected 16-man for the Ashes Tour of England but there are still several key berths up for grabs.
Justin Langer speaking to reporters said that 'three to four' positions will command his attention and that of selection panel chair Trevor Hohns throughout the four-day game between 12-man teams coached by Brad Haddin and Graeme Hick at Southampton's Ageas Bowl.
"I think there is a couple of bowling positions up for grabs, probably a couple of batting positions," Langer told reporters as the teammates turned rivals completed their final pre-game training session.
"There will be a lot of discussion about whether we have an extra spinner, a lot of discussion about whether we have an extra wicketkeeper.It won't necessarily be a straight shootout, but there will certainly be good opportunities for guys," he said.
While planning to cover all contingencies and conditions with a finite list of personnel is always fraught, the selection process for the upcoming five-Test campaign against England (starting August 1) is made more complex for a couple of reasons.

Join the Atlas Fun
The BC Breeding Bird Atlas project was launched this year to document the distribution and abundance of our breeding birds over the next five years. My role is to coordinate this project for our partners. So far, over 800 people have provided nearly 28,000 records for about 280 species of birds. BC has about 317 breeding bird species. You do not need to be an expert bird watcher to participate – if you can identify some birds, then you can join in. Go to the atlas web site at http://www.birdatlas.bc.ca to find out more. There you can register to participate, read stories from birders, and find all the online tools to enter your bird records. The birders have told me that the project gives their birding a purpose and many can hardly wait until next spring.

Sun Pharma's Dilip Shanghvi loses over 60% wealth in four years
Sun Pharma extends fall despite clarification on corporate governance issue
Sun Pharma plunges to six-year low on buzz of fresh whistleblower complaint
Sun Pharma says need more clarity from Sebi about whistle-blower complaint
Meet Sudhir Valia, Sun Pharma's director, one of India's prolific investors
Seeking to ease investor concerns, embattled drug major Sun Pharmaceutical Industries on Tuesday announced plans to unwind loans of Rs 2,238 crore given to a Dubai-based company, Atlas Global Trading FZC, and transfer the distribution of the domestic formulation business to a subsidiary from a separate entity.
Sun Pharma said the company's consolidated balance sheet had receivables of Rs 2,238 crore from a non-related party. "This liability was in respect of Atlas assuming the damages on account of Protonix patent litigation settlement entered by Sun Pharma, which was disclosed in Sun Pharma's annual report for fiscal year 2014," it said in a statement.
Last month, when investors had asked Sun Pharma Managing Director Dilip Shanghvi about the loan in a conference call, he said it was given to a "non-related" party, but did not give details.
Responding to Business Standard queries, Sun Pharma clarified Atlas Global or any of its subsidiary was not a related party at any point in time.
ALSO READ: Sun Pharma takes steps to ease governance concerns; shares rally over 6%
The Sun Pharma stock has lost about 30 per cent, or Rs 42,700 crore, of its value since September as investors are worried about the company's corporate governance standards. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) has also received two whistle-blower letters in this regard. The company has denied any wrongdoing and written to Sebi to investigate the share fall in the recent days. On Tuesday, the stock closed at Rs 418 a share, up 5 per cent.
In Tuesday's statement, the company gave further details about the Atlas transaction and said its Halol facility in Gujarat had been impacted by US FDA issues since September 2014, which were finally resolved in June 2018.
Due to supply constraints arising as a result, Sun Pharma was not able to adhere to the agreed supply schedule with Atlas Global. "Sun Pharma, in FY18, funded Atlas towards non-fulfilment of its supply obligations till the time such obligations are fulfilled in accordance with the agreement. The said funding was included in the loans and advances schedule of Sun Pharma's FY18 consolidated balance sheet," the pharma major said.
The parties to the supply contract have now agreed, Sun Pharma said, that Atlas would assign its rights and obligations arising from this contract, to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sun Pharma. This assignment will ensure that the loans and advances given to Atlas will, therefore, be settled. "On conclusion of this transaction, in the consolidated balance sheet, this loan and the obligation will cease to exist as it gets squared up. This transaction is expected to be concluded in FY19," the statement said.
Interestingly, in a note to its clients in October 2014, Credit Suisse had said Sun Pharma signed a deal with a third party where Sun would get $400 million in consideration for agreeing to sell pharmaceutical products at a negotiated discounted price. It made a provision of $438.5 million towards estimated expected liability on account of such discount on future sales. Credit Suisse further said Atlas Global was a group company of SuGandh Group of Dubai. "Another company from SuGandh Group, SuGandh Management Consultancy, was a related party of Sun (an enterprise under significant influence of key management personnel or their relatives) till 28 February 2013," Credit Suisse had said. On a four-year compounded annual growth rate basis, the $38.5 million cost of discount comes to 2.3 per cent. This is similar to the interest cost for Sun Pharma for a foreign loan, the global brokerage said. "Atlas Global Trading FZC is one of the leading basmati rice processing and marketing companies. It is an integrated player, undertaking activities right from procuring paddy to drying, de-husking, milling and polishing, colour sorting, grading, inspection, packing, branding, distribution and retailing," Credit Suisse further described Atlas quoting SuGandh Group's website. An email sent to SuGandh on Tuesday did not elicit any response.

Beautiful Women (Sathyan Ramesh, Germany). 87 minutes. Subtitled. May 28, 9:45 pm. Isabel Bader. Rating: NNN Rating: NNN
A slice of German cheese served up with a little corn. Five women meet at an audition for a role in a sleazy made-for-TV movie but decide to party all day instead. They hole up in a resort hotel that's officially closed but opened up to them by the female music duo there to rehearse. Much consumption of alcohol and many personal revelations ensue.
The cheese comes via the cabaret songs the girls are rehearsing, which act as a soundtrack for the film. The corn comes from the unlikely friendships - and some sex - that develop overnight. Look for a terrific scene where the quintet - now hammered - demonstrate on each other their experiences of their first het kiss, which gets two of them going.... You get the picture. A small guilty pleasure.

These tomatoes were not homegrown.
Two suspected drug smugglers were arrested after investigators searched a U-Haul in the parking lot of a New Jersey hotel and found boxes filled with tomatoes — and nearly 18 pounds of heroin, authorities said Thursday.
Operating on a tip May 1, New York Drug Enforcement Task Force investigators followed Abel Abad and David Collazo to a Best Western in Fort Lee, where the men left the U-Haul and drove off to Manhattan in a Dodge Caliber. They had a cardboard box with them, according to authorities.
Most Read
Agents stopped the car along the West Side Highway near W. 158th St. and found a plastic bag in the box that allegedly contained more than 4 pounds of heroin.
After Abad and Collazo were arrested, investigators returned to Fort Lee with a state police canine unit and recovered boxed raw tomatoes from the U-Haul. The boxes had false bottoms, and a further search revealed nearly 18 pounds of what is believed to be heroin.
Agents learned that the load of narcotics had been packed into the tomato boxes in Chicago and then made its way East.
Heroin and cocaine were also seized in a Chicago bust.
The federal Drug Enforcement Agency estimated the street value of the 22-plus pounds of heroin recovered in Manhattan and Fort Lee, N.J., to be more than $3 million.

David Cronenberg's work, particularly in the latter part of his career, often harshly critiques the toxicity that pervades the world around him. His divisive 2012 film Cosmopolis, an adaptation of the Don DeLillo novella, was a searing attack on the financial structures which led to the collapse so much and hardship. It will be no surprise if audiences and critics are similarly divided in their response to Cronenberg's latest film Maps to the Stars, which opened the Canberra International Film Festival last week with its Australian premiere.
Maps to the Stars examines a range of characters who have been chewed up and spat out by the Hollywood system. Ageing actresses, wide-eyed celebrity-culture obsessives, struggling actors, high-powered therapists, pushy showbiz mums and obnoxious child megastars all populate this most glamorous of places. Eventually the paths of all these characters crash into one another, sending wreckage flying.
This is Hollywood as a mythical rather than physical landscape. This space of wannabes, chasing their dreams and over-rich tabloid kids crashing cars drunk. But it also hones in on the hard luck stories that the tabloids and paparazzi rarely glimpse. The pain of someone who has made it and then lost it (a theme also explored in the CIFF 2014 standout The Congress), conveyed through the exceptional performance of Julianne Moore. The palatial houses where deals are made or begged for, and where loneliness reigns. Not content to simply show the unbridled lust for power that festers here, Cronenberg uses a number of incestuous relationships, presumably to call to mind the incestuous nature of 'playing the game' in Hollywood. Maps to the Stars makes its points about the nature of Hollywood and the vacuousness of much that occurs there plainly. Essentially that many people there are shallow or do terrible things to others. However it does not present these ideas in a particularly subtle or nuanced way, nor does it add anything particularly new to them.
Mention of an ageing starlet character conjures up numerous interpretations and expectations. With her supreme performance, Julianne Moore inhabits, elevates and breaks down all of those, at least when she does not seem constrained by the film's weak script. Wasikowska, in a tough role, exudes an energy that makes you wonder exactly what drives the motivations that lie beneath. Are they dangerous, naive or are they borne out of the physical damage on her body. Indeed everyone in the ensemble cast is good - John Cusack and Robert Pattinson are classy performers, and it shows here. Even a lesser name such as Evan Bird, playing a cocky child star, is excellent, making you want to slap him the throughout the entire film.
Maps to the Stars never progresses smoothly; it's stilted, in both dialogue and narrative. Some dialogue, which is intended as heightened Hollywood speak, feels like a surface trimming, failing to advance the themes that the main plot points serve up. With no single character journey under focus, the film also lacks a core narrative thrust. Much of what is occurring is at least partially shielded by the incomprehensibility that pervades much of the film. Occasionally that gives it a nice mysterious charm, but more often than not it just frustrates. There is a thriller aspect tacked on to the film, but it never manages to take hold.
It's a Cronenberg film, so there is much to be engaged with and provoked by in Maps to the Stars. Unfortunately there is little subtlety in how that is achieved and a sheen of incomprehensibility makes this a hard film to like.

Trying to make sense out of the idea that $100\%$ continuous decay is $\frac{1}{e}$, I thought about this:
You can express $1+\frac{1}{x}$ as $\frac{x+1}{x}$, such that $\big(1+\frac{1}{x}\big)^x = \big(\frac{x+1}{x}\big)^x$
And you can express $1-\frac{1}{x}$ as $\frac{x-1}{x}$, such that $\big(1-\frac{1}{x}\big)^x = \big(\frac{x-1}{x}\big)^x =\frac{1}{\big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)^x}$
Now $\big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)^x$ and $\big(\frac{x+1}{x}\big)^x$ look very similar, and I can imagine (and see on Mathematica) that $\lim_{x \to \infty} \big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)^x$ also approaches $e$.
However I'm clueless about limit proofs, how do you prove that?
EDIT: Just had a last second insight. Can you say that $$\lim_{x \to \infty} \big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)^x = \lim_{x \to \infty} \big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)^{x-1} \cdot \lim_{x \to \infty} \big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)$$ $$= \lim_{x \to \infty} \big(\frac{x}{x-1}\big)^{x-1} \cdot 1$$ $$=\lim_{x \to \infty} \big(\frac{x+1}{x}\big)^x = e ?$$
(not sure about that last limit transition...I mean I'm pretty sure it's true, just not sure how to write it; I would appreciate feedback on that, thank you)

#BreakingNews: Heads Roll At Starfm
Multi-media organisation ZimPapers, the owners of StarFm and Herald amongst its other publications, has sent packing its radio top management, TechnoMag has learnt.
When we reached out to the Zimpapers Public Relations and Corporate Affairs Manager, Beatrice Tonhodzayi for comment, she professed ignorance of such developments stating that no one in the Executive or management has been fired.
However when we reached out to the StarFm Deputy Manager Piwayi Nzuda, he confirmed to us that he had willfully parted ways with the stable to pursue other interests.
It is alleged that Mr Nzuda was undergoing some internal disciplinary process, and however chose to cut it off by calling it quits.
We are still awaiting a confirmation from Beatrice whether or not there are any senior managers affected by such a move.
More details to follow

"Love is patient, love is kind … it is not rude, it is not self-seeking … Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices in the truth" (1 Cor. 13:4-6). Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
Forgiveness for injustice does not mean support for injustice. Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
"Love is the most durable power in the world. This creative force, so beautifully exemplified in the life of our Christ, is the most potent instrument available in mankind's quest for peace and security." (King, Jr.) Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
"Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things" (Philippians 4:8). Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
God saves humanity through humanity. Time to get to work! Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
"My patriotism is not an exclusive thing. It is all embracing and I should reject that patriotism which sought to mount upon the distress of the exploitation of other nationalities. The conception of my patriotism is nothing if is not always, in every case, without exception, consistent with the broadest good of humanity at large." (Gandhi) Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
So, what's this about? My plan is to begin my daily postings on my Facebook Page with a positive, hopeful, constructive affirmation of love and justice, followed by: Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
During the campaign a number of GOP politicians, analysts, and advisors pledged "Never Trump." They were willing to suspend partisan politics for this election cycle because they were convinced that Donald Trump was morally unfit to hold the highest office in our land.
Well, that hasn't changed. He is the President Elect, but he is still morally unfit and his policies of injustice threaten to hurt minorities and undocumented persons. I am compelled by my discipleship to Jesus to oppose injustice and to stand with and for those who are victims of injustice.
I said this to my Facebook friends: I will be opposing Trump-ism for the next four years. So, if that is more than you can handle, please feel free to unfriend me. I understand. I promise I will not take any personal offense. And I welcome all comments as long as you are nice. If not, then I will have to unfriend you. Let me clarify something here. I oppose Trump-ism because I am advocating love of neighbor as oneself. That means standing with and for those Mr. Trump's unjust policies will marginalize and hurt. I am not opposing Trump-ism because I hate Mr.Trump. Jesus commands me to love Mr. Trump. I am opposing Trumpism because my first priority as a disciple of Jesus is to love my neighbor. Grace and peace.
I know I will not love Mr. Trump and those who will carry out his policies as well as I could or should, and I know I will struggle with this from day to day, but I am constrained to do my best. If Mr. Trump ever has a genuine conversion to love of neighbor then I will respond accordingly. Until then or until he is voted out of office, I will be proclaiming "Let love reign! Never Trump-ism" quite regularly on my Facebook Page. It's the one little thing I can do daily to affirm love and inclusion over hate and exclusion, which many Americans voted for when they voted for Trump. It's one little act of protest and affirmation of love and justice I can do daily. And it reminds me to never be complacent.
Trump-ism represents some of the worst of the isms that would diminish our lives and our society: sexism, racism, egotism, narcissism, and nationalism. So, Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
Why not join me? Maybe we could start a movement.
The powers that be crucified Jesus.
But God raised him from the dead.
Love will have the final word.
Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!
(If you want to read my daily "Let love reign! Never Trump-ism!" simply friend me on Facebook).

Even though Halloween and the dreaded Frankenstorm draw near, nothing is scared people more than what might result from the presidential election. Of course, one fear is irrationally based, that an American of color will be re-elected to the highest political office in the country, seems to be more troubling to people than a rationally based fear that a rich white man whose policy ideas are very similar to W. Bush and would sink us further down into decline seems to balance out the fear department very well these days. Then, the undecided voters who will be hopefully making up their minds come Election Day. Since Ohio is a swing state, the candidates keep coming back to pitch, as Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan did in Akron's neighboring city of Canton the other day.
Many see the presidential election as two candidates looking for power, and that is true. One seeks to maintain, but another seeks to preserve. To quote Spiderman, "with great power, comes great responsibility." A lot of questions on our mind these days is, who best is responsible for that power? Will they do good in their position? What drives them to this work, and what will they accomplish with it? Let's look at an interesting story about power in the 1933 film ' The Invisible Man'.
Starring Claude Rains, Gloria Stuart, Henry Travers, and Una O'Connor, the film is about a scientist, Dr. Jack Griffin(Rains)who discovers a formula to make people invisible. In his experiment, he did not find a reasonable antidote for restoring visibility, and hides his physically invisible self behind bandages and dark goggles and secludes himself in a small-town inn to find an antidote. This upsets the landlord's wife who he won't allow to clean a mess he made, and when the landlord comes up, he knocks the landlord down, and when the police and suspicious townspeople come to confront him, he reveals his true identity and escapes. At the same time, Dr. Cranley( Travers) is worried about his disappeared colleague, as is his assistant, Dr. Kemp (William Harrigan) and his daughter, Flora (Stuart). While searching through his empty laboratory for clues, Cranley and Kemp find that he used monocane in his formula, which is known to drive dogs mad. Upon his escape from the inn, Griffin finds Kemp and makes him become his visible partner in a plot to take over the world, one murder at a time. Kemp follows orders, and distracts while Griffin comes back to the inn to retrieve a notebook and kills a doubtful cop. Kemp is able to call Cranley and the police, and Flora pleads to go with her father to find him. When Flora and Jack reunite, he relaxes a little and she pleads for him to get help, but Griffin refuses as means to seek power. Upon recognizing Kemp's hand in this, he promises to kill Kemp, and goes on a murderous rampage, knocking people off cliffs and causing hundreds to die in a train accident. What will come of this quest for power? Watch the film and find out.
Dr. Jack Griffin is a character that, when discovering and given power, lets it go to his head and destroys society around him as means to hang onto it, which is very irresponsible. Who amongst the candidates would be like him? One candidate has his wife worried about the state of his mental health. Think about it.

Can the US avoid creating the next bubble?
The issue is hardly academic. The United States has experienced a series of bubbles -- dot-com, commodity, private equity and housing -- and each one has been more devastating than the last, resulting in economic dislocation, devastating increases in unemployment, a disproportionate number of bankruptcies and foreclosures and, with the bursting of the last one, a debilitating credit crunch.
U.S. leads the league in bubbles
The United States is the reigning bubble champion and one economist says we may have used up our allotment. "The United States cannot afford any more bubbles, particularly on the heels of the devastation caused by the bursting of the leveraging bubble," economist Richard Felson tells DailyFinance. "Bubbles create economic distortions, result in the incorrect deployment of resources and represent pseudo wealth. They are everything you would not want to see take place in a modern economy."
DailyFinance's Peter Cohan has written extensively and incisively on bubbles in the modern era, and Cohan lays much of the blame at the feet of the U.S. economy's over-reliance on debt -- which he argues has driven up prices, most noticeably in the housing sector. It's a theory Felson agrees with.
"There is no question that as financing becomes more available for an asset, upward pressure is placed on the price of that asset. It's classic supply and demand economics," Felson says. "Amortized over 30 years, an asset becomes affordable to more people, increasing demand for that product, which pushes up its price. It's happened in cars, even in leveraged buyouts, and we know what it did to the housing market."
What really caused the housing bubble?
However, while cheap, easy credit is responsible for the bulk of housing's boom and bust, Felson says the solution is not as simple as raising mortgage loan approval requirements. First, he says, unless the U.S. bans mortgages outright, "mortgage lending will eventually revert to the mean." Second, even in constrained markets, home buyers and others will seek credit from alternate sources. The key then, in Felson's interpretation, to is not restricting lending, but eliminating the reason people sought so many problematic loans in the first place.
"Much of the housing asset bubble-and-bust was driven by refinancings and by home equity lines of credit. Which begs the obvious question, 'Why were people doing these things in the first place?' " Felson says. "Why would so many homeowners succumb to using their home as a sort of bank ATM or piggy bank?"
Felson argues the reason is due to more than just clever marketing by banks or an American public addicted to consumption. The main reason Americans over-borrowed is wage stagnation, he says.
"We know that several job segments, including many blue-collar positions, experienced wage stagnation during the past decade. If median wages had increased at normal, historical rates, would many of these Americans even have considered refinancing or taking out a home equity loan? Probably not," Felson says. "But the reality of the past decade has been that, for many job segments, wages were flat, or negative after adjusting for inflation, and it was that income shortfall that prompted many to succumb to counterproductive refinancings and home equity lines of credit."
The key then to the United States avoiding the next bubble, Felson says, is wage gains driven by strong job growth. This will not be an easy task, he adds. The United States must identify multiple engines of growth -- literally create new horizons of discovery, accomplishment and wealth. This will most certainly involve technology and other growth-oriented sectors, as well as involve transforming existing ways of doing business in the energy and health care fields. Education investment and government support will be critical, Felson says, which is why he generally supports the Obama Administration's 10-year proposed budget.
If the United States does the above, it will have a balanced economy capable of sustainable growth in the 21st century -- one that creates sufficient jobs and where median incomes rise across society, Felson says. He adds that the United States should have as its goal 250,000 new jobs per month at the start of the next economic expansion, and 200,000 new jobs per month as the expansion matures, after the third year.
Fiscal Policy Analysis: The view from here thoroughly supports economist Felson's job growth goals. Getting both private investment and public policy aligned for the mission will be a Herculean task, but the economy must be restructured: Some manufacturing jobs will return, but many won't, which is why the U.S. must identify and create new sectors of growth in energy and renewable energy, health care and of course technology. (Further, no legitimate source of jobs can be ignored. One example: tourism. Almost 82 million people visited France in 2007, a very profitable revenue stream for the nation. About 56 million visited the U.S. during the same year.) Another key is innovation: The U.S. must corner the market in doing things better, whether it's the best windmill, solar panel or most-reliable electric or hydrogen-fuel-cell car.
If all of the above become key features of the U.S. economy in the decade ahead, we will meet Felson's job growth requirements and build a stronger, prosperous economy, with rising corporate earnings and median incomes.

Senate backtracks, Oduah to brief committee
The Senate on Thursday backtracked on their earlier decision to have the embattled Minister of Aviation, Ms Stella Oduah, appear before the its plenary.
She is now to appear before the Senate Committee on Aviation.
Oduah had been summoned to appear before the Senate Plenary yesterday, but has been directed to brief the committee on the state of the aviation sector.
Senate Leader, Senator Victor Ndoma-Egba, said on Thursday that decision to rescind the summons on the minister was arrived at during an executive session.
Upon resumption of plenary, the Senate Leader, Senator Victor Ndoma-Egba (Cross River Central), had moved a motion that since they had agreed at an executive session that Oduah should appear before the Committee on Aviation, he is moving a motion that it should be so done. The Senate then, accordingly, resolved to rescind its earlier resolution that she should appear at the plenary. Consequently, there wasn't any objection from any of the senators when the Senate President, David Mark, asked for comment from the legislators.
Although the reason given by the Senate leader for her referral to the aviation committee was that it was decided at last Thursday's executive session, this contradicted the reason given by Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu last Thursday for Oduah's non-appearance last week as scheduled.
He had said her appearance was deferred because of Mark's request that she should hold on until his return from the United Arab Emirate (UAE) where he had gone to lead the federal government delegation to the final of the U-17 World Cup, won by Nigeria.
Incidentally, it was the same Ndoma-Egba who had on October 8 moved the motion that led to the summoning of the minister.
The minister's summon, along with her chief executive officers, was sequel to the adoption of Ndoma-Egba's motion entitled: 'Crash of the Associated Airlines Airplane.'
Rising under section 67 of the 1999 constitution, Ndoma-Egba noted that the sheer number of accidents in the country is deserving of declaring a state of emergency in the aviation sector and that the time has come for the senate to summon the minister and her chief executive officers to appear before the senate to give account of her ministry.
Chairman of the Senate Aviation Committee, Hope Uzodinma, told journalists after the plenary that his committee would do justice to all the issues it is required to raise .
Reacting to the allegation that the leadership of the senate was under pressure by the presidency to give the minister a soft landing, Uzodinma said, 'I don't know where you heard that, but what I have just said is in order and that is the rules and that is what we are doing.'

Skip to comments.[Catholic Caucus] Wednesday in Holy Week: Spy Wednesday (Gueranger)
Posted on 03/27/2018 9:07:31 PM PDT by CMRosary
THE CHIEF PRIESTS and the Ancients of the people are met today, in one of the rooms adjoining the Temple, for the purpose of deliberating on the best means of putting Jesus to death. Several plans are discussed. Would it be prudent to lay hands upon him at this season of the Feast of the Pasch, when the City is filled with strangers who have received a favorable impression of Jesus from the solemn ovation given to him three days back? Then, too, are there not a great number of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, who took part in that triumph, and whose enthusiastic admiration of Jesus might excite them to rise up in his defense? These consideration persuade them not to have recourse to any violent measure, at least for the present, as a sedition among the people might be the consequence, and its promoters, even were they to escape being ill-treated by the people, would be brought before the tribunal of the Roman Governor, Pontius Pilate. They therefore come to the resolution of letting the Feast pass quietly over, before apprehending Jesus.
But these blood-thirsty men are making all these calculations as though they were the masters. They are, if they will, shrewd assassins, who put off their murder to a more convenient day: but the Divine decrees—which, from all eternity, have prepared a Sacrifice for the world's salvation—have fixed this very year's Pasch as the day of the Sacrifice, and tomorrow evening, the holy City will re-echo with the trumpets which proclaim the opening of the Feast. The figurative Lamb is now to make way for the true one; the Pasch of this year will substitute the reality for the type; and Jesus' Blood, shed by the hands of wicked priests, is soon to flow simultaneously with that of victims which have only been hitherto acceptable to God, because they prefigured the Sacrifice of Calvary. The Jewish priesthood is about to be its own executioner, by immolating Him whose Blood is to abrogate the Ancient Alliance, and perpetuate the New one.
But how are Jesus' enemies to get possession of their divine Victim, so as to avoid a disturbance in the City? There is only one plan that could succeed, and they have not thought of it: it is treachery. Just at the close of their deliberations, they are told that one of Jesus' Disciples seeks admission. They admit him, and he says to them: What will you give me, and I will deliver him unto you? They are delighted at this proposition: and yet, how is it that they, doctors of the law, forget that this infamous bargain between themselves and Judas has all been foretold by David in the 108th Psalm? They know the Scriptures from beginning to end—how comes it that they forget the words of the Prophet, who even mentions the sum of thirty pieces of silver. Judas asks them what they will give him; and they give him thirty pieces of silver! All is arranged: tomorrow, Jesus will be in Jerusalem, eating the Pasch with his Disciples. In the evening, he will go, as usual, to the Garden on Mount Olivet. But how shall they, who are sent to seize him, be able to distinguish him from his Disciples? Judas will lead the way; he will show them which is Jesus, by going up and kissing him!
Such is the impious scheme devised on this day within the precincts of the Temple of Jerusalem. to testify her detestation at it, and to make atonement to the Son of God for the outrage thus offered him, the Holy Church, from the earliest ages, consecrated the Wednesday of every week to penance. In our own times, the Fast of Lent begins on a Wednesday; and when the Church ordained that we should commence each of the four Seasons of the year with Fasting, Wednesday was chosen to be one of the three days thus consecrated to bodily mortification.
On this day, in the Roman Church, was held the sixth Scrutiny, for the admission of Catechumens to Baptism. Those upon whom there had been previous doubts were now added to the number of the chosen ones, if they were found worthy. There were two Lessons read in the Mass, as on the day of the great Scrutiny, the Wednesday of the fourth Week of Lent. As usual, the Catechumens left the Church after the Gospel; but as soon as the Holy Sacrifice was over, they were brought back by the Door-Keeper, and one of the Priests addressed them in these words: "On Saturday next, the Eve of Easter, at such an hour, you will assemble in the Lateran Basilica, for the seventh Scrutiny; you will then recite the Symbol, which you must have learned; and lastly, you will receive, by God's help, the sacred laver of regeneration. Prepare yourselves, zealously and humbly, by persevering fasts and prayers, in order that, having been buried, by this holy Baptism, together with Jesus Christ, you may rise again with him, unto life everlasting. Amen."
At Rome, the Station for today is in the Basilica of Saint Mary Major. Let us compassionate with our Holy Mother, whose Heart is filled with poignant grief at the foresight of the Sacrifice, which is preparing.
MASS.—The Church commences her chants with one to the glory of the Holy Name of Jesus, outraged as it is, on this day, by them that plot his Death. This Name, which was given him by heaven, and signifies that he is our Savior, is now being blasphemed by his enemies: in a few hours, their crime will bring its full meaning before us, for his Death will have worked the Salvation of the world.
In the first Collect, the Church acknowledges to God that her children have sinned against him: but she reminds him of the Passion, endured for their sakes, by his Only Begotten Son, and this revives her hope.
How terrible is this our Defender, who tramples his enemies beneath his feet, as they that tread in the wine-press; so that their blood is sprinkled upon his garments! But is not this the fittest time for us to proclaim his power, now that he is being treated with ignominy, and sold to his enemies by one of his Disciples? These humiliations will soon pass away; he will rise in glory, and his might will be shown by the chastisements, wherewith he will crush them that now persecute him. Jerusalem will stone them that shall preach in his name; she will be a cruel step-mother to those true Israelites who, docile to the teaching of the Prophets, have recognized Jesus as the promised Messias. The Synagogue will seek to stifle the Church in her infancy; but no sooner shall the Church, shaking the dust from her feet, turn from Jerusalem to the Gentiles, than the vengeance of Christ will fall on the City, which bought, betrayed, and crucified him. Her citizens will have to pay dearly for these crimes. We learn from the Jewish historian Josephus (who was an eyewitness to the siege) that the fire which was raging in one of the streets, was quenched by the torrents of their blood. Thus were fulfilled the threats pronounced by our Lord against this faithless City, as he sat on Mount Olivet, the day after his triumphant Entry.
And yet the destruction of Jerusalem was but a faint image of the terrible destruction which is to befall the world at the last day. Jesus, who is now despised and insulted by sinners, will then appear on the clouds of heaven, and reparation will be made for all these outrages. Now he suffers himself to be betrayed, scoffed at, and spit upon; but when the day of vengeance is come, happy they that have served him and have compassionated with him in his humiliations and sufferings! Wo to them that have treated him with contempt! Wo to them who, not content with their own refusing to bear his yoke, have led others to rebel against him! For he is King; he came into this world that he might reign over it; and they that despise his Mercy, shall not escape his Justice.
The Gradual, which immediately follows upon this sublime passage from Isaias, is a prayer addressed by Jesus to his Eternal Father: the words are taken from one of the Psalms.
In the second Collect, the Church again reminds our Heavenly Father of the Death which his Divine Son deigned to suffer, in order to set us free from the yoke of Satan; she prays that we may have a share in the glorious Resurrection of this our Redeemer.
For the other Collects, see the Mass for Monday in Holy Week.
Again it is Isaias that instructs us, not indeed upon the triumph which our Emmanuel is to win over his enemies, but upon the sufferings of the Man of Sorrows. So explicit is his description of our Lord's Passion that the holy Fathers have called him the fifth Evangelist. What could be more sublimely plaintive than the language here used by the son of Amos? And we, after hearing both the Old and New Testament upon the sufferings which Jesus went through for our sins—how shall we sufficiently love this dear Redeemer, who bore our infirmities and carried our Sorrows, so as to look as a leper, and as one struck by God, and afflicted?
We are healed by his bruises! O heavenly Physician, that takes upon himself the sufferings of them he comes to cure! But not only was he bruised for our sins; he was also slaughtered as a lamb: and this not merely as a Victim submitting to the inflexible justice of his Father who hath laid upon him the iniquity of us all, but (as the Prophet here assures us) because it was his own will. His love for us, as well as his submission to his Father, led him to the great Sacrifice. Observe too how he refuses to defend himself before Pilate, who could so easily deliver him from his enemies: He shall be dumb as a lamb before his shearers, and he shall not open his mouth. Let us love and adore this divine Silence, which works our Salvation. Let us not pass over an iota of the devotedness which Jesus shows us—a devotedness which never could have existed, save in the Heart of a God. Oh! how much he has loved us—his children, the purchase of his Blood, his Seed, as the Prophet here calls us. O Holy Church! thou long-lived Seed of Jesus, that laid down his life!—thou art dear to him, for he bought thee at a great price. Faithful Souls! give him love for love! sinners! be converted to this your Savior; his Blood will restore you to life, for if we have all gone astray like sheep, remember what is added: The Lord hath laid upon him the iniquity of us all. There is no sinner, however great may be his crimes; there is no heretic, or infidel, who has not his share in this precious Blood, whose infinite merit is such that it could redeem a million worlds, more guilty even than our own.
The Tract, which follows this Lesson, is taken from the 101st Psalm, in which the Royal Prophet expresses the sufferings of body and mind endured by Jesus, in his human Nature.
The Church then gives us the history of the Passion according to St. Luke. This Evangelist mentions several details not given by Saints Matthew and Mark, which will assist us to a fuller understanding of the divine mystery of the Sufferings and Sacrifice of the Man-God.
Here, a pause is made, as on Palm Sunday. All kneel down, and if such be the custom of the place, they prostrate and kiss the ground.
Here, the Deacon offers the Incense to the Priest, that he may bless it; and, having himself received a blessing, he concludes the history of the Passion, observing the ceremonies used for singing the Gospel at High Mass.
The words of the Offertory are those of Jesus, suppliantly beseeching his Eternal Father not to turn his face from his own Son, who is a prey to every suffering, both of body and mind.
In the Secret, the Church prays that we may have a tender devotion for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in which the Passion of our Savior is daily commemorated.
For the other Secrets, see the Mass for Monday in Holy Week.
The Church takes her Communion-Anthem from the same Psalm, which supplied her with the Tract and Offertory, namely the 101st.
The Death of Jesus should be to us an unceasing motive for confidence in the divine mercy. This confidence is one of the first conditions of our salvation. The Church asks it for us in the Postcommunion.
For the other Postcommunions, see the Mass for Monday in Holy Week.
As an appropriate exercise for the close of this day, we offer our readers the following stanzas from a Hymn of the Greek Liturgy: they allude to the mysteries we have been explaining.
We subjoin the following beautiful Preface from the Ambrosian Missal: it expresses, in a most touching manner, the sentiments which a Christian should have within him on this vigil of our Lord's Supper.

|The Power and Healing in Telling One's Story - Living Library Event(Unpublished)
Event Type: Special Events
Age Group(s): Adults
Date: 2/2/2019
Start Time: 11:45 AM
End Time: 12:30 PM
Dale Mary Grenfell, StorytellerLibrary: Old Town Library
Telling one's story is one of the most powerful medicines there is. Stories bridge differences, diffuse conflict, nurture trust, reduce stress and ... they heal.
Maya Angelou once said, "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." Finding and creating venues for our stories is perhaps more important at this time in our history than at any other. Social media, texts and Twitter are no match for one's own story. Stories connect us to one another. They remind us that what we have in common is so much more than how we differ.
"Stories are the glue that hold us together and right now we need a lot of 'holding together.' If I can contribute to that, I'd be thrilled."

MOUNTAINSIDE, NJ — Before Jeff Torborg caught Sandy Kaufax's perfect game while playing for the Los Angeles Dodgers, he earned the honor of All-State as a catcher at Westfield High School and an All-American catcher at Rutgers University.
Torborg, who during his 10-year-long career in baseball played for the California Angels and was part of Don Drysdale's record-setting streak of 58-2/3 innings of scoreless baseball, now has another notch to add to his belt.
On Saturday, the Union County Freeholders dedicated the Jeff Torborg Youth Baseball field at Echo Lake Park in Mountainside in his honor. In addition to growing up in Westfield, Torborg is a longtime resident of Mountainside.
"When I first was told about this amazing tribute, I was literally speechless … this is a tremendous thrill for me and for my family," said Torborg. "It is an honor to be recognized by my home county, which has been the site of events important to generations of my family."
Two youth baseball teams, municipal officials from both Mountainside and Westfield along with members of the Torborg family attended the dedication. In addition, prominent baseball professionals Willie Randolph, Al Leiter, and Mike Lowell were in attendence.
"We welcome you home today," said Freeholder Vice Chair Alexander Mirabella, who introduced Torborg and presented him with a resolution honoring him with his colleagues. "We are pleased to name this field in your honor, and our hope is to inspire future generations of our younger county residents to follow in your path."
"Jeff never forgot where he came from," said UCBA President Jim Iozzi. "You can see by the people here today how loved and liked he was throughout his time here in Union County."
"I know you are all busy -- we are so overwhelmed by the response of people," said Torborg. He acknowledged seeing people from his church, as well as folks from Rutgers, and Jay Horwitz, "the most popular public relations man ever in professional baseball with the Mets," he said. He also pointed out Mike Lowell, Willie Randolph and Al Leiter and told stories of coaching them. -- "These guys are three of our favorite people our family has ever been around in baseball. --- Beautiful human beings, these guys, and for them to come out here today -- they are busy guys."
He said Union County cares about kids. -- "I don't think we can say it enough -- Union County athletics has a legacy of helping young players, young athletes succeed. And it takes a lot of people to make it work," said Torborg.
Torborg's son Greg thanked everybody behind this honor and the guests that took the time out of their busy schedules. He shared a personal heartfelt letter from Jerry Reinsdorf, owner of the Chicago White Sox. "Your legacy in this game is well established. -- From an impressive coaching career, to over 600 wins as a major league manager -- including 94 victories and a manager of the year award with the White Sox. You have literally impacted thousands of young players making each one better. Leaving a ripple effect that touches baseball even to this day."
Torborg threw out the first pitch to his grandson, also named Jeff Torborg, after which the Clark Little League and Springfield Junior Baseball teams played an exhibition game during which they sported uniforms emblazoned with Torborg's #10 uniform number.
Mayor Shelley Brindle said it was a privilege to participate in the dedication.
"While Jeff's Major League Baseball accomplishments are well known, it is his commitment to youth sports and the impact he has had on so many young lives that will be his lasting legacy," Brindle told TAPinto Westfield. "I can think of no more fitting tribute than dedicating a field in his name, which will hopefully inspire a future Jeff Torborg that will equal his contributions on and off the field."
Throwing the pitch to his grandson while kicking off a youth exhibition game was among a long line of accomplishments in Torborg's career that did not end as a player with Major League Baseball.
Torborg later managed five Major League Baseball teams: the Cleveland Indians, White Sox, Mets, Montreal Expos and Florida Marlins. He also served as a coach for the Yankees for 10 years then became an award-winning television and radio baseball broadcaster for CBS Radio and, on TV, Fox Sports, the release noted.
The Torborg family also donated memorial bench plaques to the field and facility, which includes a plaque memorializing his accomplishments.
To obtain a permit to play at the field, which sites off of Mill Lane in Echo Lake Park in Mountainside, bordering Westfield, call the Union County Parks Department at 908-527-4900.
