The unit investment trust has quietly blossomed into the dominant investing vehicle for Build America Bonds — the taxable municipal debt created under last year's stimulus legislation.
Four companies — chief among them Invesco Van Kampen — have launched more than 110 BAB UITs with roughly $3.3 billion in total assets.
Without getting much press, BAB UITs are now considerably bigger than BAB-devoted mutual funds, closed-end funds, and exchange-traded funds combined.
Market participants say UITs are suitable for the type of investing people use BABs for: passive, long-duration exposure.
"Investors are looking for an investment vehicle that can provide consistent income," said Craig Falduto, head of unit investment trust research at Van Kampen. "It's a very consistent income stream."
The typical UIT fee structure involves a fairly heavy upfront payment followed by low annual costs until liquidation. Because BAB trusts tend to be long term, an investor enjoys lower overall costs with the UIT structure than with something like mutual or closed-end funds, which entail higher annual expenses.
"Usually, the longer the trust the better the argument gets with the UIT," said Richard Stewart, senior vice president of unit investment trusts at Advisors Asset Management — the first company to launch a BAB UIT. "It gives you a lower average annual expense. You're spreading it over more years."
A UIT is sort of like a passively managed mutual fund that never reinvests principal payments.
A UIT manager populates a trust with municipal bonds and sells ownership in the form of "units" investors can redeem for cash any time, based on their share of the quoted value of the bonds in the trust. The trust pays monthly dividends.
When the bonds in the trust mature, the UIT returns the cash to shareholders instead of reinvesting it. When the last bond in the trust has matured, the UIT is liquidated. A UIT has a defined termination date: whenever its longest-term bond matures.
That makes owning a UIT comparable to owning a diversified basket of idle municipal bonds, as opposed to paying a mutual fund manager to reshuffle holdings and try to beat the market.
"Given that we're a passive, buy-and-hold structure, that monthly check doesn't vary," said Falduto, head of UIT research at Van Kampen.
The UIT is a minor player on the tax-exempt stage. At the end of 2009, UITs held $9.9 billion in tax-exempt debt, according to the Investment Company Institute — about one-third of 1% of the $2.8 trillion municipal bond market.
The Vanguard Limited-Term Tax-Exempt Mutual Fund alone is bigger than the entire tax-exempt UIT space.
The market for BABs is a different story.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in February 2009 authorized municipalities to forsake the customary tax exemption on their debt and instead float taxable bonds featuring a federal subsidy equal to 35% of their interest costs.
The taxable Build America Bonds have introduced municipal debt to new investors and new markets, ones in which the UIT is playing a bigger role.
The BAB UITs' roughly $3.3 billion in assets represent 2.6% of the $127.86 billion of BABs that have been issued since the inception of the program last year.
BAB UITs' assets easily eclipse the roughly $1.6 billion in BAB-devoted closed-end funds, $550 million in exchange-traded funds, and $60 million in mutual funds.
Steve Baffico, senior managing director at Claymore Securities, said one of the reasons BAB UITs have proliferated is that they are easier for the sell-side to create.
A manager can launch a UIT in as little as 10 days, Baffico said, whereas a closed-end fund or mutual fund has to go through a filing period that can take months.
"It's a very low barrier-to-entry way to provide yield, diversification, total return, and institutional price execution in a packaged product," Baffico said.
The first BAB UIT came to market in May 2010, when Advisors Asset Management launched the $5.8 million Build America Bond Portfolio Series 1.
Coming only a few weeks after state and local governments began selling BABs, the trust bought some of the first to hit the market, including $1.3 million of New Jersey State Turnpike Authority revenue bonds maturing in 2040, which infamously priced at 365 basis points over Treasuries.
AAM has launched 21 BAB UITs with about $200 million in assets.
Next came Van Kampen, with the $34.3 million Build America Bonds Income Trust in July. It has quickly defined itself as the undisputed king of BAB UITs by launching 65 trusts with $2.6 billion in assets.
First Trust joined the market in November, selling the $21.4 million Build America Bonds 1 UIT. The company has introduced 24 BAB UITs with about $500 million in assets.
The latest to join the game is Claymore Securities, which launched its first BAB UIT in July and now has three, with more than $50 million in combined assets.

The mother of two young girls who died in a house fire while she was out playing pool with her boyfriend was sentenced to eight years in prison today, officials said.
Erika Ramirez, of the 7200 block of South Troy St., pleaded guilty to two counts of child endangerment and was promptly sentenced by Circuit Court Judge Marcus Salone, said Andy Conklin, a spokesman for the Cook County state's attorney's office.
Ramirez has been at the Cook County Jail since her arrest a day after the Dec. 22, 2008 fire that killed her daughters, Carla Gonzalez, 9, and Perla, 6. The fire also injured the woman's two other children, Esmerelda Gonzalez, 7, and Victor Ramirez, 11 who were rescued by police.

Softbank Hawks: March 2, 2010
by Gen on Mar.02, 2010 @ 1:32 pm, under NPB, Spring Camp
=== 3/3/2010 12:53am JST
...Nobuhiko Matsunaka joined the Ichi-gun team on Tuesday and worked out under a separate menu prior to the exhibition game against the Seibu Lions. He spent about 20 minutes at early BP (apparently taking some solid cuts) and also spent some time fielding grounders in the infield and shagging flies in the outfield.
...Yuki Shimooki attended his graduation ceremony at Kosei Gakuin High School on Monday.
=== 3/2/2010 1:32pm JST
...Tokyo MX (Tokyo Metropolitan TV) will be covering 45 Softbank Hawks games this years. On Monday, they announced that they hired Mikiko Nagotomo to call the play-by-play. It seems the Tokyo MX feels a female personality in the booth will help attract more viewers. The last time a female personality called a game was back Yumiko Udo did it for NHK in 2006.
Last season, Nagatomo provided coverage of the Hawks as a reporter. She is currently scheduled to call about 30 games this year.
...Takahiro Mahara threw about 60 pitches in the bullpen on his day off on Monday. Mahara is currently scheduled to pitch on Wednesday against the Seibu Lions.
...Shingo Tatsumi will be making a start against the Seibu Lions (exhibition game) on Wednesday. He held a bullpen session on Monday and threw about 80 pitches. Tatsumi has two new pitches in his arsenal: a change and a shuto.
...Yoshiaki Fujioka will be making a start against the Rakuten Eagles (exhibition game) on Thursday. He threw 80 pitches in a bullpen session on Monday.
...Nobuhiko Matsunaka could play in a game as early as the 6th (vs the Yomiuri Giants). Koji Akiyama has given Matsunaka until 3/10 to play in an exhibition game. If he doesn't play in a game by then, he won't be guaranteed a spot on the opening day roster.
...It seems the Hawks' original plan for using Nobuhiro Matsuda in the outfield is making a comeback. During Fall camp, there was talk of moving Matsuda to the outfield. That plan was later rejected during a meeting of coaches in January. Now it seems the idea is back on the table.
...Sadaharu Oh told reporters on Monday that he's planning on sending a number of people, including scouting advisor Shigeru Ishiwata, to Arizona and Florida at some point during the month. The plan is for them to spend about 2 weeks opening up lines of communication with various MLB clubs. They'll also spend some time working on building up a list of possible candidates that might become available once the major league rosters are set.

Dubuque police undergo underwater investigation training
ZWINGLE, Iowa (AP) — Several Dubuque police officers found themselves in an unusual environment at the bottom of a quarry pond.
The police department's nine-member dive team was undergoing its monthly training exercises, The Dubuque Telegraph Herald reported . Training is held monthly so divers can keep their skills sharp.
The team had four newer members recently receive their advanced open-water certifications. Training began with technique practice, where members practiced following commands given over a radio.
"We're starting with basics, and then we'll get into search patterns," said Lt. Dave Haupert, a member of the team.
The department received a grant about three years ago to purchase dive equipment to begin building the specialty team, said Dubuque Police Chief Mark Dalsing.
"We had individuals that had dive skills," Dalsing said. "But it was really limited, and we recognized we needed to increase our capacity."
The city's location on the Mississippi River means investigators must sometimes go underwater to salvage evidence.
"We know for a fact that evidence is thrown into the river," Haupert said. "So if we are doing an investigation and somebody said, 'I threw the gun in the river,' we can go try to recover that evidence, which can be crucial to a case."
The department plans to pursue additional training for tasks such as first aid and diving in icy water, Haupert said.
Dalsing said he's looking into forming a multi-agency dive team with the Dubuque Fire and Dubuque County Sheriff's departments.

I was very glad to meet you and Gabrielle. And absolutely frankly can say that among all NZ companies that I dealt with, your service was the best.
Please allow me 1-2 days to give you the answers, since the range is broad and we have to choose the best.
"Salmanazar was THE first appointment we booked for ProWein 2017 in our search for a New Zealand producer. I had been in touch with Gabrielle and several members of the staff leading up to the show so they knew exactly what we were looking for. Our appointment was on time and extremely efficient. Not only did we taste and lock in our primary brand, but found another brand that we couldn't pass up as well! We look forward to meeting with them again this year to recap our business and see what's new."
Dear Gabrielle,
It's pleasure to work with professionals. Very impressive portfolio and business attitude!
Trade shows are by far the best possible venue, or opportunity for us to meet, talk and taste wines with our existing suppliers and, of course, always scouting for new interesting wines and suppliers under "the same roof" during a couple of days. So efficient, so convenient. Having somebody like Salmanazar there is like having a fair within a fair. You bring along with you a whole set of interesting winemakers and wines from New Zealand that we would probably otherwise never even know about. I am sure this is a two way street and that the winemakers who come with you to the fairs benefit from being there with you. They would probably not meet half as many potential customers without Salmanazar.
First of all I wanna thank u for warm and professional reception at Salmanazar`s stand at the fair ,where we tasted very good wines .
Dear Sirs,
I would like to thank you for very nice meeting during last ProWein. It was great to finally see you, taste your wines and in consequence modify our order.
We cannot wait to get it J
Vedrana, please keep us informed about the shipping and send us pro-forma.
With our best regards
While I love personally visiting estates for many reasons I have always found trade shows to be far more efficient. Specifically you can meet and visit far more wineries in one day. Time is a valuable commodity that you can't get back, consequently backing trade shows is far more efficient
Dear Sir/Madam
It was pleasure the meeting you at Prowein 2017/Messe, I was so greatfull tasting your amazing wines.
We are London base beer/wine/spirits importer and distr. Company , focusing on ON-TRADE business, we have over 400 hundred restaurants customers around the UK and we are working to expend our portfolio with new and old world wines.
Dear Vedrana
I hope you also arrived at home well.
It was nice to meet you in person at the exhibition PROWEIN 2017. I have to admit, that going to the fair was a very good idea, because I could get to know Your company.
I have to say, that we import wines to Poland and I am interested in marketing Your wines, which – in my opinion – are very tasty. We would like to become Your official representative, distributor in Poland.
We ask you to send samples of wines that you would like to offer for the Polish market and a commercial offer. You can find my company address in my sign (below email).
In conclusion we count on fruitful cooperation with Your company.
I am looking forward to Your response and I await Your kind comments.
Best regards.

Hello and welcome to the new and improved newLEGACYinc website. The website has been redesigned and will probably be seeing some more use in the future as we are making some changes on our streaming platform that should benefit you guys. For the past two years we have been streaming exclusively to Hitbox.tv, however this is changing as we are now going to be streaming simultaneously to Hitbox.tv, Twitch.tv and Beam.pro, and all these streams can be located on the streams page on the website here so you don't need to remember the link to all these streams (while we'll probably be linking to our streams page on the website, it's a good idea to follow the channel on the different platforms in case the site goes down. Twitch/Hitbox/Beam). There are several reasons for this change but the main reasons is so that people have more choices on where to watch the stream from, so if you're having trouble on one site you have the ability to try watching it from another platform and see if that works better for you.
On another note to go alongside this, our annual Fighting Back 24-Hour Marathon Stream will be happening on August 19th.If you're unfamiliar with Fighting Back, it is a wrestling event created by independent wrestlers, promoters, volunteers and fans in order to raise awareness and funds for the Canadian Cancer Society, and to celebrate the memory of Francois "Phrank" Morin. More information about the event and the organisation can be found on their website found here. Last year we were able to raise $10,375.12 for them thanks to you lovely peoples. As usual the cast will be manned by the crew here at nL and if we're as lucky as we were last year we'll have some guests (THE BIG DOG LOVES IT!). We'll probably release more details on the event as we get closer to it, but hopefully you guys will be able to join us.
To end this I'd just like to thank all of you guys for sticking with us for so long on behalf of the rest of the nL crew and hope you continue to hang out with us on streams and watching our future content!

For over 80 years, Serta has been developing mattresses highly recognized for providing superb comfort, support, and reliability.
Serta's original pioneers consisted of individual mattress manufacturers that assembled in 1931 to discuss the ways in which national brands affected their personal companies. Envisioning the impact they could have as a unit by sharing information, manufacturing practices, and advertising, the founders eventually joined forces under the national licensee company Serta.
As an industry leader, Serta has demonstrated their dedication to improving mattress and sleep quality with revolutionary innovations. Serta introduced the industry's first ever-tuftless innerspring mattress, which served as the prototype for modern day mattresses and influenced mattress manufacturing. Serta's founders named the new mattress the Perfect Sleeper. The Perfect Sleeper retained its shape, consisted of pre-compressed fibers, and omitted the need for uncomfortable buttons that risked sleep disturbance. Serta's ongoing dedication to excel in mattress ingenuity is also represented by Pillow Soft mattress, a winning design that challenged the common medical belief emphasizing the need for hard mattresses for proper skeletal alignment. Serta successfully designed a Perfect Sleeper mattress that provided structurally correct inner support without compromising comfort. Serta is invested in producing quality products that range from the foundation to the exterior. Serta's main types of mattresses include natural talaylay, innerspring, and infused foam mattress. The company produces a variety of brand products that suit an array of preferences and needs such as iComfort, iSeries, and Perfect Day.
A leader in innovation, Serta continues to offer superior quality and reasonable prices. AZ Mattress Outlet in Phoenix is proud to offer competitive prices on all of our Serta mattresses.

M.I.A wants to leak her album
- Bang Showbiz
- 10 May 2016
M.I.A has expressed her desire to leak her new LP after she claimed she wouldn't know when it would be released due to visa issues
M.I.A is tempted to leak her new album online.
The 'Paper Planes' hitmaker previously revealed she doesn't know whether or not the record, which was called 'Matahdatah', will ever be released in the US by her label Interscope because she doesn't have a visa to enter America any more.
And now M.I.A has told fans she's tempted to unofficially release her new collection of songs.
According to Pitchfork, she has also decided to change the name of the eagerly-anticipated LP, which was to be called 'Matahdatah'.
During a Periscope session, she said: "I would love to leak it.
"I wake up every day and think I'm gonna leak it."
However, M.I.A - whose real name is Mathangi 'Maya' Arulpragasam - is wary of irrecoverably damaging her relationship with her record label as she hopes when the album does come out it will be a success.
She said: "I can always do that for the rest of my life. If I carry on making music, then I would do that, but I also want to find an album where I can actually make my label work for me."
Last week, the 40-year-old rapper-and-singer stated the LP will be her "last" album because of her visa situation.
Taking to her Twitter account, she wrote: "I am handing my last LP in to my American label this week. It'll be up to them if its released. I don't have visa 4 states to promote or spk (sic)"
Despite previously being based in New York City for a couple of years, the London-born songwriter - whose parents are Sri Lankan - has US visa problems because of her politically charged lyrics and her dad's alleged links to the Tamil Tigers militant group.
M.I.A was previously engaged to American Benjamin Bronfman - the son of Warner Music CEO Edgar Bronfman Jr - and their seven-year-old son Ikhyd was born in Los Angeles.
She previously released two singles from the forthcoming album, 'Borders' and 'Rewear It'.
The eagerly-anticipated record will be a follow-up to 2013's 'Matangi'.

Yesterday saw Google's entry into the Browser wars. Launched initially for Windows, later releases will include Mac and Linux/Unix-based software.
The SEO industry in particular has been abuzz with the launch, with many taking special time out of their day to test the new tool (Ref: Twitter – you know who you are).
However, what is the big deal?
I will be honest, my first impressions were somewhat underwhelming. However, first impressions aren't always the best, and there is no doubt that if we lift up the bonnet of Chrome there is certainly something very powerful waiting.
One of the biggest features is the new Chrome URL bar. Unlike traditional browsers, which merely use this space purely for the URL, the Google Chrome interface combines the traditional URL features, with search suggestions (termed the OmniBox).
This, in my opinion, is one of the better features of the new browser, as there is no doubt many people do type terms into the URL bar, and such a feature merely serves to hone and refine such activity.
The other clever bit here is that this feature is intuitive and develops with your search and browsing behaviour (where other search activity exists ie Amazon, Ebay etc).
I understand that no data is currently being directly collated by Google, however there is no doubt that this, along with a number of other plugins and enhancements, is in the pipeline. It is only a matter of time before such activity is undertaken, particularly with reference to the enhancement of personalised search.
In my opinion, the browser offers huge potential to Google. Various social media mechanisms are going to play an important part in the future of Chrome – just look at iGoogle and the variety of plugins, widgets and gadgets currently integrated there.
Surely this is something that has been considered in the development of the browser, and much like Google itself, I can't help thinking that Open Source has to play an important part in the future evolution of Chrome.
Another dark horse has to be Youtube. Google still hasn't worked out a way to significantly monetise the service, and it is the integration with Web 2/3.0 that will be at the forefront of Chrome moving forward.
To conclude, there is no doubt that Chrome is an early stage product. But given the fact it is Google's, it stands a better chance than most of succeeding in an increasingly competitive landscape.
The thought does linger at the back of one's mind – is it just the first stage in a much bigger plan?

Anything else is just fluff.
With all the "web 2.0" apps we have kicking about, javascript can be dog slow...in chrome its fast and reliable.
Try Gmail in IE, Firefox etc. Then try it in chrome. If your worried about Gmail being coded for Chrome, try Hotmail Live.
I agree that the javaScript performance is what sets it apart, although it has a few other nice touches too.
For example, its incognito mode appears to be designed to take the wind out of Microsoft's sails, as that was one of the touted features of the upcoming IE 8.
Also, it offers better thread isolation, so one tab freezing won't crash the whole browser, is entirely open source and poses one big question:
Will Google continue to plug FireFox now that Chrome has been launched?
I'm guessing that they won't, which must be a blow to Firefox's future distribution, even if their PR department claims otherwise.
Firefox is safe for a while, as Crome doesn't as yet have a single plugin, one of the biggest advantages of Firefox being the dozens of handy plugins, but then, with SEO already revolving around Google, how long will it be before there's tons for Chrome too?

Released: 2008
Directed by: Uli Edel
Original title: Der Baader Meinhof Komplex
The Red Army Faction (RAF) is a part of German history about which I know very little, so I was keen to watch this film, particularly as it features some excellent German actors, including Martina Gedeck, Moritz Bleibtreu and Johanna Wokalek.
The film opens with a terrifying depiction of a protest against a visit by a Middle Eastern official, which quickly escalates into violence, police brutality and a fatal shooting. Meanwhile, Rudi Dutschke of the German student movement is shot on the street. Having fled her cheating husband, left-wing journalist Ulrike Meinhof (Gedeck) soon comes into contact with Andreas Baader and Gudrun Ensslin (Bleibtreu and Wokalek). Initially aiming to fight for a fairer society, they begin to rob banks, blow up buildings and shoot police officers. The film follows them from the initial formation of the movement through the height of their activities to their imprisonment and trial. While they sit in prison, the myth that has built up around them attracts a younger generation who move further and further away from the group's initial objectives.
Obviously the film contains quite a bit of violence, including plenty at the hands of the police, who don't come off particularly well either. While the focus is on the RAF, there are occasional flashes of the effects their actions had on members of the public who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. One of the best things about the film is undoubtedly Martina Gedeck, who evolves from an intellectual with a family to a violent radical and eventually suffers under the pressure of imprisonment. Johanna Wokalek also gives a fantastic, fiery performance.
Obviously this is a simplified version of what happened and there probably isn't anything new here for people who remember the era. Equally, there is a danger of glamourizing events for younger people who weren't alive at the time. The other problem with fitting so many years into just over two hours is that it can be difficult to retain an overview, particularly towards the end of the film when new members keep appearing. Aside from a few key members, most of the RAF members depicted are barely even named. In a way, this reflects the gradual change in the group's structure and methods, but some viewers could find their attention waning as they try to figure out who's who.

The Apiary is a single block that can house bees, in addition Apiary's are a "Key Factor" in the creation of new trees.
Item SlotsEdit
The slots in red are for bees, a Princess in the top slot and a Drone in the bottom. When a Princess and Drone are placed in these slots they will breed, consuming the Drone and converting the Princess to a Queen. The slots in green are for Frames. Frames increase the productivity of bees. The slots in blue are where the bees products are deposited. This is also where the new Princess and Drones will be deposited when the Queen dies.
The Apiary recipe as shown by Not Enough Items. Made with planks and slabs, the item in the center is an Impregnated Casing. An Impregnated Casing must be created in a Carpenter , using eight logs and 250 mB of Seed Oil.

how to reduce dandruff.any treatment or good medicines?
A: dandruff is a common problem and needs to be tackled at the earliest. If not, it will lead to falling hair and balding and skin problems.

A: dandruff is a condition of the scalp in which the skin on the scalp begins to flake. Itching and scaling can also occur and the flakes can be either dry or greasy. dandruff occurs when the process of shedding old skin cells takes place faster than normal. Usually as new skin cells grow, the old cells are pushed to the surface of the scalp from where they are shed. In some individuals this process occurs much faster, thereby causing an excessive shedding of dead skin cells. dandruff can develop due to various reasons such as hormonal fluctuations, poor dietary habits, excessive use of hair cosmetics, infrequent washing of the hair, stress and...

how to treat dry and flaky scalp? I''m not sure if it''s due to poor blood circulation but the flakes are very big and it is itchy. Please help!
A: First and foremost it is of prime importance to find out the exact cause for the your dry and flaky scalp because after the cause is identified then the correct treatment can be followed to rectify the situation to prevent further harm. Dry flaky scalps could be mainly due to climatic conditions. Depending on the kind of climate present in the place you are living, your skin can get affected and so does your scalp. Hot and dry climates can make your scalp lose its inherent moisture and go completely dry. This can lead to dry skin flakes peeling off from the crown of your head and hairline.

how to Cure/Prevent ''Cradle Cap''
A: Cradle cap is a condition in infants and babies in which the scalp has red and sometimes scaly patches. Cradle cap can be likened to dandruff for babies. The scalps sebaceous glands are basically working on overdrive, and produce too much oil. Cradle cap is not usually a serious condition, and is not really uncomfortable for your baby. Parents might be alarmed with the appearance of red patches and scaling on their babys scalp, though. Fortunately, cradle cap can usually be treated with frequent shampooing. A mild baby shampoo will usually do. You will usually have to wait for your babys sebaceous glands to normalize in their oil production.

how to keep a lovely hydrated coat in the winter?
A: I would not use Perfect Coat. It has way too many chemicals. My dog broke out in hives after using that stuff and her coat was dry and brittle like straw... and that was from their "hypoallergenic" shampoo. I use Earthbath Oatmeal and Aloe mostly, but anything from the Earthbath line is good, no harsh chemicals that dry the skin and coat. If you want something specifically for dark coats, I''m sure there are better products out there than Perfect Coat. Try putting a humidifier close to their dog beds. We don''t have a humidifier but we hang wet towels in our bedroom during the winter to put moisture in the air, and this has helped our skin and the dogs'' coats tremendously. You...

Ahhhhhh! Can I just scream out how much I love Morgan and Shelby?! They are from Orange County and were looking for a Las Vegas engagement photographer. They had a cool concept to do their photos out here since Shelby actually proposed to Morgan here in Vegas, at a beautiful 30th birthday party that he threw for her with their closest friends. We had an absolute blast together at their engagement session together! We hit up some cool vintage Vegas locations, like The Neon Museum and Fremont Street.
With all of the correspondence I had with Morgan for the engagement session, they decided they wanted to have me come out to Orange County (the Laguna Hills area) to photograph their wedding as well! I am sooooooo happy they did! Their wedding was so amazing, the details were incredible, and I felt as though I were in Photographer Heaven! Oh, and the weather out there is a nice 20 degrees cooler, so that helps a lot too!! 🙂 If you're from Vegas, you already know what I'm talking about, LOL.
So, I decided to do two separate postings of their wedding, since there just happens to be tons of great stuff that I can't make up my mind on what to post! This posting will cover the first half of the day (bride getting ready, bridal party shots, ceremony and newlywed romantic shots.)
Morgan and Shelby's ceremony definitely goes down in my book of top wedding ceremonies of ALL TIME. It had the right amount of humor, heart-tugging emotional moments, seriousness, education, and a great deal of warmth and sunshine (in a metaphorical type of sense). The officiant, Pastor Todd, did a wonderful job, and I heard he had a few secret admirers following the ceremony as well! LOL. Sorry ladies, he's taken – married for 24 years with 3 kids. 🙂
I'd like to extend a BIG thank you to all of the guests and family of Morgan and Shelby as well – they were all such easy-going people! Extremely warm-hearted people!
Let me also give a HUGE shout out to the event coordinator at the Arroyo Trabuco Golf Club, where the couple's lovely wedding took place. I don't think I've met a nicer, more hospitable coordinator. Allison was sweet, down to earth, and went out of her way to make sure that not only the guests were well taken care of, but that me and all of the participating vendors were given extra special care. She brought me out cold water, gave me a tour of the property, and was always checking in with me to make sure I had everything I needed. WOW! I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator than her. She made me feel so welcome and cherished. 🙂 So, Allison, if you are reading this, my hat goes off to you – you are amazing, my dear!!
Morgan's reaction when she first saw the reception room was absolutely killer. The smile on her face wrapped around her face probably about three times! 🙂Here is the lovely Miss Allison, who is the event coordinator extraordinaire at the Arroyo Trabuco.

I love a good read. I don't have tons of quiet time to complete a book, so the author better grab me quick or I'm outta there. All the Places to Go by John Ortberg is perfect for the reader who loves truth bombs coupled with humor and legit real life application.
This book also totally freed me from the heavy burden that God is only behind ONE door.
I used to carry the burden of not wanting to disobey God. It was like there were only two doors: Obeying God's will & and Disobeying God's will.
AHHHHH! The stress that comes with not knowing God's will!! This will totally calm you down and gift you with the freedom to love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, strength, and love your neighbor as yourself.
All the Places to Go is excellent source wisdom for those seeking a life following Christ.
Below are my Top Quotes from All the Places to Go
"No project is so great that it doesn't need God. No project is so small that is doesn't interest God."
"If we do not learn to find God in our small worlds, we will never find God at all."
"Spiritual maturity is being able to face troubles without being troubled."
"Sometimes going through an open door just means not being a jerk. If the door is not marked glamorous, just settle for obedient."
"The standard position for being truly problem free is dead."
"Sometimes, it's what you do after the door is open that makes all the difference."
"If I stew over what might have been, I rob myself of energy and spirit to see all the small doors God sets before me each day."
"If 'having a peace about it' we're the ultimate criterion for going through open doors, nobody in the Bible have done anything God asked."
"We don't follow clarity. We follow God!"
"An open door is an opportunity provided by God, to act with and for God."
"The doors through which a soul can leave fear into courage, leave hatred and enter forgiveness, leave ignorance and enter into learning."
"The primary will for your life is not the achievements you accrue; it's the person you become."
"Feeling ready is highly overrated. God is looking for obedience.What the world needs is not simply isolated outward deeds, but transformed character from within. That's what Jesus wants to release into the world."
I would recommend this book to anyone who is constantly wondering if they are pleasing God with their choices as well as people who paralyzed from making decisions based on fear of disobeying God.
Is this you? Visit my What to Read page and get your copy today!
Dear Heavenly Father,
I pray that every eye who reads this comes to know you and your will for their life. I pray you continue to draw them closer to you as they learn to love with their whole heart, soul, mind, and strength. Give us wisdom and the courage to make decisions that honor you and help us to love our neighbor.
In Jesus name,

UPDATE Ding ding ding! Happily, we have a 100th donor, and this fundraiser actually met its goal -- and in the summer, too: A low-traffic time. Thank you all. (I apologize that in the midst of this I bought the paint you enabled me to buy and began to paint some interiors, making for lighter posts than usual in the midst of a fundraiser, which isn't exactly Marketing 101, but needs must when the devil drives!) I'm going to leave this post sticky still for a two reasons: First, some of you may only now be returning from your trips to the Riviera or Himalayan expeditions, and so have not had the opportunity to contribute; second, I have an approach that I hope will avoid this stressful and risky bi-annual event and create some excellent and above all hopeful content as well, by rebooting Campaign Countdown with some improvements, but I can't write it up until I have the painting under control. So thank you all again, very much: Corrente is not a hobby for me, and your help is the only thing that keeps it (and me) going.
73 84 87 91 94 95 96 97 98 99 donors is good! Who wants to be the 100th? I suppose I should offer an incentive of some sort, but I'm no marketer. (Then again, the 1st donor puts te fundraiser over the top as much as the 100th.) Readers, thoughts?
73 84 87 91 94 95 96 97 98 donors is good. 100 would be even better. Only two more -- will you be one of them? Then I can take this post down and write up some other thoughts I've had about keeping Corrente afloat...
73 84 87 91 94 95 96 97 donors is good. 100 would be even better. Just this evening!
73 84 87 91 94 95 96 donors is good. 100 would be even better. So near and yet so far!
73 84 87 91 94 95 donors is good. 100 would be even better. Partly to unsticky this post; partly to achieve a goal; and partly to pay the bills! Thanks to all who have contributed so far, which makes Corrente possible, but if each of our 40,000 unique visitors a month gave one (1) dollar... We'd be funding original reporting!
73 84 87 91 94 donors is good. 100 would be even better. C'mon guys, you want to drag the Overton Window left, or not? After which exhortation, I will post again lightly today -- I have to do the prep work to put the paint -- which I couldn't have gotten without your help! -- on the walls!
73 84 87 91 donors is good. 100 would be even better. Corrente (read below) has had an amazing run going back 8 years (!!!) to July 2005 (and two years before that at Blogger). Since I have my head down over the keyboard most of the time, I sometimes forget to look back at the broad sweep of all the amazing writing that's been done. Corrente is a truly independent voice. But only you, readers, keep it alive!
73 84 87 donors is good. 100 would be even better. C'mon. Pravda on the Potomac and Izvestia on the Hudson both have pay walls. Their reporters come in to their cubes and collect paychecks. They don't even have to pay for their server! And this tiny little blog scooped them on how credit reporting agencies are going to be checking your income for ObamaCare eligibility. David and Goliath, mkay? But David needs a rock, and not a pebble. Your donations are that rock.
UPDATE OK, just let me crass and triumphalist, here. Read the UPDATE at this post. I totally p0wned both the Times and Ezra Klein on a huge ObamaCare story. So send me money, and I can keep doing that!!!!!! [lambert blushes modestly.]
73 84 87 donors is good. But 100 would be even better. After all, if every unique visitor to this site paid one (1) dollar a month, I'd be soaking in it! And I'd really like to get down to Goal #8 -- "pay other bills" -- like cross off the medical center test when I discovered I didn't have melanoma, for example.
UPDATE So far,
27 31 45 73 84 87 donations (and Correntians, do feel free to leave comments....). Thank you! Your donations have taken me through goal #1 (goals) of paying the server forward a bit, and through #2 of buying paint and plaster, and into goal #3, a new set of progressive trifocals. (Yes, fancy glasses so I can bend my head down to the screen and work, and then lift my head to spot the woodchuck when I hear rustling in the grass).
Corrente is not part of any political tribe or faction. That makes us unusually dependent on contributions from individual readers. Won't you help? Because if you like the work we do, that's what it takes! Your help! The contribution buttons -- PayPal or WePay -- are at your left.
The suggested amount is $25, which isn't much for a full year of Corrente, eh? But if you can only donate less, that's OK; we know many readers are squeezed, and worse. But if you can donate something more substantial, we'll definitely accept that!
[10:56AM I pause here to note that this post is shorter than it should be right now, because the entire areahad a power failure that started before I was even awake, including the university (!!), to which I fled, and the power only now came up!]
[12:01PM Not only, I keep revising it!]
Some background, for anybody who came in late: Corrente started in 2003 on Blogger, and moved to this location in 2005. That means Corrente has a tremendous back catalog. We have major collections on:
Corrente has also been involved in major campaigns for:
And we do all this in addition to regular daily posts on the news of the day, as well as posts on Common Household Remedies, gardening, and whatever else it pleases people to write.
So if I had to shut down the server, that would be quite a loss! 36,347 posts (SELECT COUNT( * ) FROM node) through the Bush and now the Obama administrations....
Corrente's philosophy is that you can post whatever you want, as long as it's well-written. Every post is front-paged. There is no thumbs-up/thumbs-down mechanism, as at Daily Kos, because I hate the game-playing there. People can show up here and say what they can't say elsewhere, or find their voice if they don't have one, or simply say what is in their hearts.
So I like to think of Corrente as a writer's blog. That's why PA_lady, out of the blue, appeared with a series on fracking; that's why MsExPat appeared, out of the blue, to report on Thailand, from the ground; that's why the Plantidotians contributed so many lovely images; that's why danps contributes music every Saturday and Sunday mornings... Seriously, what other blog lets you create your own site logo?
Corrente is one of the few independent**** political blogs left standing (unlike Violet's Place or The General, for example; gone in the last year). That's because full-time blogging -- that's my job, it's what I do -- is incredibly hard work and the rewards, though great, are not financial.
So I'm almost always in dire straits; not as dire as some -- I have an online voice and, as readers know, a "This Really Old House" that I can rent some rooms in -- but plenty dire. For example, with your help, this summer I would like to:
Nothing dramatic or luxurious!
NOTE * Where I encountered Naked Capitalism, and the financial blogosphere, which I had hitherto not known about.
NOTE ** Well before fracking was on the radar screen at the major blogs.
NOTE *** The Obama-supporting career "progressive" blogs not only supported what became ObamaCare, they imposed a news blackout on single payer events, and censored and banned single payer advocates.
NOTE **** By "independent," I mean not funded in any way by the nomenklatura of the legacy parties. I also mean that Corrente really does try to encourage critical thinking. This is a tough crowd if you're a tribalist or a partisan.
NOTE ***** If I can't paint and replace the house soon, I can't show it fall tenants in August. That would be bad.
NOTE ****** The friggin' pests could damage the foundations!
be back on Wed. with a little $$ that's when the SS check arrives.
I want to say thank you to everyone who has donated in the past and everyone who is donating to this drive.
Corrente is the only group blog I know of where everyone one is a front pager. So I get to see contributions from Ohio, danps, libby liberal, hipparchia, and so many others. It gives exposure to great bloggers who otherwise would have a much tinier audience.
It also takes on issues based on merit and not pragmatism. So we saw through the Public Option Zombie Sparkle Pony as a roach motel that it was and remains.
And Corrente was the first non-economics blog to propagate Modern Monetary Theory, thanks to letsgetitdone and others.
Corrente has followed the solidarity movement from Spain, to Greece, to Egypt, to Wisconsin, to the Ohio repeal fight, to Occupy, Corrente has followed the struggle.
Corrente plays a unique role in American political blogosphere. I know that many Corrente readers are on a very tight budget. For those it is enough to read Corrente and share links with family and friends. But among our readers there must be some in a position to make a monthly commitment. This is an investment in the future of our country. It is an investment to maintaining an open dialog and give a voice to those who otherwise would be locked out. Please give generously if you are in a position to do so.
For his extraordinary efforts finding the weeds, Lambert has won a Hori-Hori tool! Send me a PM with the mailing information. My favorite hardware store in Seattle has them in stock.
On Sunaday, I viewed at Youtube: "PSYWAR - The Real Battlefield is the Mind Part 1" , for which the Link is (hopefully) to be found here . One learns that Public Relations is a $200 billion a year industry in the USA. So, I'm considering making a small contribution to Corrente's Summer Fundraiser.
On the topic of financial backers, yes it matters. Generally speaking, I'd suggest the "agenda" or "menu" of a publication aligns with the agenda/menu of its financial backers. Too much "Yes Sir!", fawning and or "Echo Chamber" can lead to a less vigorous debate. But too many "agents provocateurs", spammers and disinformationists or "hired commenters" is a greater evil, IMHO. Alfa.
The weekend went well, but today is going a lot less well. I'm not yet in a position to pay all the bills. My cunning plan to blog and grow rich has not worked out!
I can't have a bank account. When I try to, they seize all the money I put in, over old medical bills about epileptic seizures.
But be it by money order or whatever, I will, by god, contribute to corrente.
If you feel that you must, do so. But again, there are Correntians (maybe more here than other places) who really are not in a position to give. They shouldn't! I don't want that kind of money! (That said, if every unique site visitor paid one dollar a month, there'd be no problem funding Corrente at all.)
How about if somebody takes over athena1's donation? Or matches it? Readers?
No worries.
All right I received my entitlement check today and sent my $25.00 so please send something I don't want the woodchucks to win or people not know how they're getting screwed by 0bummercareless.
On another thought what happened to gardening?
We shall fight on gardens, planting grounds, in fields, in paths and on the beds. We shall never surrender! The woodchucks will never win!
* * *
But it's not an "entitlement." It's social insurance. "Entitlement" is a neo-liberal construct designed to divide recipients into the deserving and the undeserving.
But it's not an "entitlement." It's social insurance
LOL yes I know but that all we ever hear isn't.
Mine is the one ending with .13. Salud.
Thank you!
I was a little thin at the time of the last fund raiser and I never did deliver on the $50 I committed to. So this time I did that and threw in $25 more. Hope it helps. Little by little you'll get there, since anyone with half a brain knows Correntewire is essential to the blogosphere.
Or, to be fair, exactly half a brain.....
* * *
I don't want anybody who's thin to donate to Corrente instead of paying the gas company or a doctor's bill.
By the time token, your donations -- there is no foundation or party money funding Corrente, which is why we can say the things we do -- help me pay my gas bill (and the doctor's bill) and if I can't keep doing that, there is no Corrente.
Done :) Aww hell, I disagree with you more than agree, but would hate for the hamster to die or starve.....;)
And at least we're not shy about explaining where we stand!
:D The disagreements are more in form than content :D But in my defense I am only a prude on blogs.
99 & 1/2 just won't do!

Railroad construction between Charlotte and Raleigh is a model example of how federal funding can be used for rail projects, transportation officials said Thursday.
In his visit to a Harrisburg construction site, Federal Railroad Administrator Joseph Szabo praised North Carolina's railroad development and advocated for more consistent federal railway financing. The Harrisburg project – which involves eliminating roadway intersections with the tracks – is part of the state's $520 million Piedmont Improvement Project, meant to enhance rail travel between Charlotte and Raleigh. It's set for completion in 2017.
"The work that North Carolina's doing here exemplifies why we need to be doing more across the country to improve the safety, reliability and efficiency of our rail system," Szabo said.
The Piedmont Improvement Project is funded entirely by federal stimulus money.
The work in Harrisburg includes building a new bridge between N.C. 49 and Stallings Road in order to carry traffic over North Carolina Railroad tracks, eliminating two intersections with the tracks. Removing intersections is one of several aspects of the Piedmont Improvement Project, in addition to adding parallel tracks for freight trains and renovating stations, among other changes.
Ultimately, the project will allow Amtrak to add two additional daily round trips between Charlotte and Raleigh. Eventually, the route should have the capacity for high-speed trains going 90 mph, though that could be years away.
The upgrades to the route come in a time of growth for North Carolina's railroads, NCDOT Rail Division Director Paul Worley said. Ridership on the Charlotte-Raleigh route has grown by nearly 240 percent since 2007, and the route ranked first in growth among all Amtrak lines in 2012.
"Gains like this don't happen by chance," Worley said. "It takes a concerted effort and ongoing investment."
The Piedmont Improvement Project is a priority for the department, he said, with a "real sense of urgency" around the work. All construction is currently on schedule.
Szabo noted that federal funding for railroads is doled out "sporadically and erratically." In order for initiatives such as the Piedmont Improvement Project to be consistently successful across the nation, new financing practices are needed, he said.
A bill to provide long-term, steady funding for railroads was presented to Congress earlier this year.
"At a time when our travel habits are changing ... this bill for the first time ever would provide rail projects with predictable dedicated funding just like we have for every other transportation mode," Szabo said.

'X Factor' Results: Who Had to Beat It on Michael Jackson Week?
One would think that a Michael Jackson-themed week would be a slam dunk for The X Factor, with such a wide availability of already proven hits. Instead, what viewers got was a mixed bag of performances resulting from lack of confidence, overconfidence for some and just plain bad renditions for others. In many ways, The X Factor's inability to live up to the King of Pop is a tribute in itself. But in a double elimination week, the last thing you want to do is fail to sell the audience on your performance.
PHOTOS: 'X Factor' Behind the Scenes: The Top 11 Work Out the Week's Performances
The people moving on to the final five in the order host Steve Jones calls them are:
Chris Rene -- America apparently appreciated his Fugees-style take on "I'll Be There." The song has been performed by much more talented singers than Chris, but they did a good job of highlighting what he calls his "ringing" or rapping-singing.
Melanie Amaro -- She can sing the phonebook, yada, yada. But, I would have liked to hear her sing something other than Jackson's "Earth Song," which hardly fulfilled on the promise of her take no prisoners dominatrix-like costume from the performance.
Rachel Crow -- I still really like her, though she had a tough night of it. It was obvious that she wasn't in love with the song choice. Judge Simon Cowell has been a bit off for a while when it comes to song choice, and his girls have been riding on their popularity. But how long can that last?
Josh Krajcik -- He has been the most consistent performer this season. But his song from last night legitimately made him nervous, which made for an uncharacteristically safe performance.
PHOTOS: Get to Know 'X Factor's' Top 17 Finalists
At this point, it's time to find out who which two performers are leaving and who will join the top 5. In the case of these double eliminations, the singer with the least amount of votes goes straight home. And that person is...
Astro -- The young M.C., who has garnered both good and bad attention for his very cocky personality, should get some props for getting this far in a singing competition. Last night's performance was definitely at the high level in which we're used to from the performer. But, the rap remake of "Black or White" may have robbed some of the Michael magic from the song.
That leaves two artists to fight it out for the last position in the Top 5: Marcus Canty and Drew Ryniewicz.
Marcus may have traded voice proficiency for a fast-paced, highly choreographed performance that included a back flip. But this is a singing competition, and America may have wanted his voice more on point. Meanwhile, Drew has suffered under Simon's recent bout with bad song choices and his insistence that she make every performance a ballad. And Thursday's "tribute" to Jackson in which she never stood up from her chair may have irked some fans who couldn't imagine him ever staying put like that during an entire performance.
Both have to perform a survival song in order to win the judges' safe votes. An emotional Drew does Roxette's "Listen to Your Heart." And Marcus goes with Gladys Knight and the Pips' "Neither One of Us." Hands down, Drew sang her survival song better than Marcus. But there are other things at play here between the judges.
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Inside Simon Cowell's 'X Factor' Trailer
With the fate of the two singers in their hands, the judges' vote for whom they're sending home:
L.A. Reid -- Drew
Simon Cowell -- Marcus
Nicole Scherzinger -- Drew
Paula Abdul -- Drew
And that's it -- Simon's pout in full force. Drew, whose talent had made her a front-runner in the competition early on, has to beat it alongside fellow teen Astro. Did you agree with the double elimination? Tell us in the comments section below.
