Dear Team Jefferies,
Once again, each of you stepped up to help make a big difference in the lives of good people in their time of need. In this case, it was our neighbors and friends who were harmed by the massive Hurricane Sandy. You did not have to give personally. You did not have to devote a day asking for help from our clients. You didn't have to put others ahead of yourself—none of this is in any of your official job descriptions. We would like to thank each one of you for once again showing why our firm is so special. It is our honor to be working alongside each of you every day. Let's finish the next few weeks as strong as possible.

I love this Tibetan Style Pendant that's on sale now at Panda Hall. It's a flat round gear charm, antique silver in color, cool for steampunk jewelry making. It's safe; free of lead and nickel. It is 38mm in diameter.
One hundred of these will cost me only $33? I haven't tried buying from the Panda Hall site before but it looks like a great place to buy neat trinkets and make your own jewelry for sale in bulk.

Does your canine companion leave excessive amounts of fur all over the house? While shedding is simply a natural part of life for most dogs, too much can be a problem! Here, your Colorado Springs, CO veterinarian tells you what to do.
Help With Grooming
You'll be surprised at the difference that daily brushing can make when it comes to shedding. Not only does brushing your animal friend help trap loose and dead fur in the brush itself, preventing it from winding up on your carpets and floors, it spreads essential skin oils through the coat. This moisturizes the fur naturally to cut back on shedding at the get-go.
Diet Change
If your dog doesn't receive the proper nutrients from food, his skin health will suffer and shedding may increase. Ask your veterinarian if your pooch's current diet is up to par—if it's not, it might be time for a change.
See Your Veterinarian
If you still can't seem to get your dog's excessive shedding under control, make an appointment to have your dog examined at the vet's office. Medical issues could be to blame!
For more information on your dog's grooming needs, call your veterinarians Colorado Springs, CO.

One of the most diverse and specialized branches of the Conservation Department, the GIS staff manages our large geodatabases and uses that information to create and update maps. GIS is a tool that combines spatial information with attribute data. At Philmont, we use our GIS program to create the sectional, overall and campsite maps. Mapping is just the tip of the iceberg, however. The number of public and private entities using GIS for natural resource management is growing rapidly, and the possibilities are almost endless. Each summer the GIS staff takes on new and exciting projects.
Some of their recent work includes mapping of backcountry inner-camp social trail network. These trails could lead to severe erosion problems in the future if not taken care of and by mapping their locations it allows us to see where there is trouble and work to stop it quickly. The GIS staff has also been working on an update of the 2009 Forestry Map and working on mapping the new Heck Tract, which we were just recently given permission to use. Every year, the GIS staff develops a Bear Sighting map, which maps out all bear and mountain lion sightings over the course of one summer. One of their most involved analytical projects is the Philmont Reservoir volume study. Because it was constructed over 40 years ago, the reservoir's volume has decreased due to siltation and sedimentation, which was transported to the reservoir through the North Fork Uracca watershed. The Maintenance Department came to us at the Conservation Department to see if the GIS staff would be able to help them get an approximate current volume for the reservoir that they may compare to its original volume. After a summer of gathering data and calculation it appeared that the reservoir has lost over 10 acre-feet over the last 40-or-so years.
The GIS staff also works closely with the ROCS and TCT instructors to provide GIS lessons to Roving Outdoor Conservation Crews and Trail Crew Trek participants. These lessons cover topics relating GIS to environmental science, such forest fire prediction, monitoring of invasive species, and hydrological modeling, as well as non-environmental science-related applications.
Philmont Scout Ranch, the Boy Scouts of America's premier High Adventure™ base, challenges Scouts and Venturers with more than 214 square miles of rugged northern New Mexico wilderness. Backpacking treks, horseback cavalcades, and training and service programs offer young people many ways to experience this legendary country.

Children's Temperament and Sleep Behaviors May Be Signs That They Will Become Bullies
Bullying, which is defined as repetitive, negative actions that are used to deliberately hurt weaker individuals, is a growing problem for many children worldwide (Austin & Joseph, 1996; Olweus, 1993). Recently, researchers have begun to ask whether certain risk factors in childhood are related to bullying behaviors. One possible risk factor that researchers have begun to examine more closely is temperament.
What is Temperament?
Temperament can be defined as differences between children with regard to levels of emotionality, adaptability, and activity level (Goldsmith & Harman, 1994). One type of temperament that has been found to be related to aggression in past studies is difficult temperament (Rubin et al., 1998). Difficult temperament can be defined as having high levels of negative emotionality (mood) and not adapting well to new or stressful situations. Less research, however, has looked at how different temperamental traits, such as difficultness and activity level, relate specifically to bullying as opposed to general aggression. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate:
- How temperament measured in early childhood and adolescence is related to observations of relational and physical bullying in preschoolers
- How temperament measured in early childhood and adolescence is related to reports by adolescents of their own physical and relational bullying.
Results of Our Study on Temperament
The findings from this study showed that early temperament was related to bullying behaviors that children showed during play when they were five years old.
- Temperament also was related to bullying behaviors that were reported by the same children when they were adolescents.
- Specifically, children who had high levels of negative mood, activity, and inflexibility at age five showed more relational bullying, such as blackmailing, verbal aggression, and teasing, when they played with an unfamiliar peer when they were five years old.
Adolescents who reported lower levels of activity during the day and higher levels of activity during the night were more likely to have exhibited physical bullying when they were five years old.
- They also were more likely to report higher levels of both relational and physical bullying in adolescence.
- This suggests that there may be a direct link between sleep patterns and bullying behaviors. It is possible that adolescents who do not sleep well at night are more likely to be under-active during the day, and this dysregulation may increase the likelihood of engaging in negative behaviors such as bullying.
- It also is possible that early preschool bullying behaviors may indicate problems that will manifest as later sleep problems in adolescence.
Pay Attention to Childhood Temperament
These findings suggest that it is important to examine temperamental traits, such as difficultness and activity level, when examining the childhood factors that are predictive of bullying behaviors in early childhood and in adolescence. More specifically, these results may help inform prevention and intervention programs because researchers and educators may be able to focus specific interventions on children who are at the greatest risk temperamentally for engaging in bullying activities. Thus, by being able to identify the factors that are associated with later bullying, prevention and intervention programs can be developed and differentiated for children who are at both higher and lower risk for bullying other children.
Pay Attention to Kids' Sleep Behaviors
In addition, it may be important to pay attention to sleep behaviors of children and adolescents. Although this study could not prove that sleep problems caused bullying, it did show that the two behaviors are related to each other. It may be useful for parents to encourage their children to keep regular sleep hours, especially on school nights. However, it also is possible that children with behaviors such as aggression and bullying may simply be unable to fall asleep at night, and parental persuasion may not be helpful. The reasons why sleep problems and bullying are related require further research for a more complete understanding of this relationship.

Baptist Christian Ethicist Glen Stassen died today after a battle with cancer. We only spoke once. The conversation occurred after I sent him the following email on September 5, 2009:
Dr. Stassen,
My name is Jeff Hood and I am a ThM student at The Candler School of Theology at Emory University studying Christian interaction with social movements. I am currently enrolled in a doctoral seminar entitled 20th Century Christian Social Ethic with Dr. Elizabeth Bounds. I am contacting you based on her advice. I am a recent graduate (Dec. 2008) of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY. I had a very difficult time at the school and have had tremendous faith issues ever since. I have been through a number of personal tragedies and have struggled with the question of suffering in the face of a loving God. I became a pariah at Southern due to my questions and my disagreements. I have yet to find a faith home since leaving Southern. I am very confused and could use some advice on how to proceed forward processing my experiences. I was told a little about your background and have always respected Fuller so I decided to take Dr. Bounds advice to contact you. She seems to have much respect for you and your scholarship. I would be very grateful for the chance to speak with you on the phone about your experiences and how you moved forward following life at Southern. Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you. -Jeff Hood
Dr. Stassen graciously replied with his home phone number and talked to me on the phone for over an hour. When told of my interest in social ethics and activism, Dr. Stassen encouraged me to see myself as part of a long lineage of progressive Southern Baptist ethicists and activists. I remember this being the first time I ever heard the names of Henlee Barnette or David Gushee. Whether he intended to or not, Dr. Stassen bequeathed me a legacy and one of the reasons I still call myself a Southern Baptist to this day is because of him. A few months ago, I accepted the Fort Worth PFLAG Equality Award for LGBT Activism as a Southern Baptist minister and activist. Thank you Dr. Stassen.

How to Crochet a Scarf Using Single Crochet
If you need to make a scarf and you're just a beginner, here's a really fun, easy way to do it!
1Start by making a chain approx. 3 feet (0.9 m) long. (approx. 120 stitches). If you want a longer scarf, add more chain stitches until you reach your desired length. Turn and single crochet in the second stitch from the hook.
2Single crochet (sc) and continue to sc to the end of the chain. Chain 1 and turn.
3Repeat step 2 until you have reached the desired width of your scarf. Finish off.
4Add tassels to your scarf.
- Take a piece of yarn approx. 12 inches (30.5 cm) long and fold in half.
- Weave the yarn piece into the end stitches of the scarf by taking the hook and pushing it through the stitch. Then loop the yarn piece onto the hook and pull the hook through the stitch with the looped yarn piece on the hook.
- Once the yarn piece is pulled through the stitch, remove the hook and pull the ends of the yarn piece through the loop on the other side and pull tight to create the tassel. Continue in this manner until all end stitches have a tassel.
- Trim the tassels so that they are even. Repeat step 4 on the other end of the scarf.
Community Q&A
QuestionHow do I add the tassels?There are several ways to make and add tassels or fringe. See Step 4 above as well as the articles How to Make Tassels and Add Fringe to a Crochet or Knit Project.
QuestionWhat do I do when the scarf is getting wide in the middle?wikiHow ContributorCommunity AnswerOn the next line, lessen the amount of string you use - but don`t do this too much, as it`ll scrunch up the scarf.
QuestionHow do I get a knot out of my wool?You can leave it if it's small enough, or cut the knot out and continue as if you were changing colors or adding on another skein of yarn to your project.
QuestionHow long does this take?wikiHow ContributorCommunity AnswerIt depends on your skill level, as well as the length of the scarf, hook/yarn width, and patience (if you're a beginner).
QuestionHow do I "turn and single crochet in the second stitch from the hook"?wikiHow ContributorCommunity AnswerWell, you have to find the farthest 2 loops in the corner first. Then, after finding these, you insert the hook through (not completely) and from there you pull out some extra string. After pulling the extra string out, you move onto the next 2 loops. It`s pretty complicated to explain in words. You might want to ask someone to show you in person, or view instructional crocheting videos on YouTube.
QuestionWhat size crochet hook for a scarf? A G?wikiHow ContributorCommunity AnswerThe hook you use for a scarf most likely doesn't matter. Use whatever hook you feel most comfortable with; just make sure it doesn't get too big. If this means G for you, then sure, use a G.

- Do your best and don't rush. You're not in a fastest-crochet contest.
- Don't spend too long on steps 2 and 3. Only do it until your scarf is the way you want it.
- If you can, you might want to loop long strings through holes on the short ends for some scarf-like effects. If you're not classic like that you can make little stars, hearts, circles, triangles, squares, or any other shape you want out of colored pipe cleaners, and loop those through the loops on the ends.
- Don't spend too long doing this. Don't forget about other things too.
- If you don't want a 4–5 foot (1.2–1.5 m) scarf, make it 2-3 or 3-4 feet.
Things You'll Need
- Crochet hook that is a good width for your yarn, otherwise an inexpensive, nice crochet hook that is at the store.
- Yarn that is your favorite color, or if you are doing this to sell, then lots of yarn in lots of different colors. If you are just giving them out, then ask what color the person/people want(s) and use that color.
- You should keep a tape measure handy for measuring. If you are selling, make two to five of each color, one or more of the 2-5 being 2–3 feet (0.6–0.9 m), one or more being 3-4, and one or more being 4-5.
- Once again, if you are selling, you will probably want a box, bin, basket, or other large container for all the scarves. Please note that if you're making lots to sell, don't expect to be able to make 30 scarves in 5 days.

Construction is slated to begin this month on a new $1.8 million Optimist Park clubhouse in Miami Lakes.
The state-of-the-art clubhouse will replace the original, which was left unrepairable by Hurricane Wilma in 2005.
Plans for the 5,000-square-foot multipurpose facility include many necessary improvements from the 37-year-old clubhouse demolished last September.
"The clubhouse will be a modern building, providing much needed additional indoor multipurpose recreational space and a concession area," said Tony Lopez, director of community and leisure services. "Also, it will provide needed additional parking for the park."
The facility will also include a Miami Lakes Sports Hall of Fame to celebrate local professional athletes. This addition was proposed by Vice Mayor Manny Cid and funded through a private donation.
Town officials anticipate the clubhouse will be completed by summer 2015.
"This our first step into the planned future of the park," Lopez said.

Woman minister gets wolf whistles in French parliamentJuly 21st, 2012 - 7:16 pm ICT by IANS
London, July 21 (IANS) A 37-year-old woman minister, who wore a knee-length floral summery dress and high heels to parliament, faced a barrage of wolf-whistles from male MPs when she stood up to give a speech.
Housing Minister Cecile Duflot also faced yells of "Phwoarr" Friday as she tried to make a speech to the National Assembly in Paris, The Sun reported Saturday.
She began, "Ladies and gentlemen… obviously, more gentlemen than ladies", but her words were drowned out.
After the howling, the minister said: "I have worked in the building trade and I have never seen anything like that. This tells you something about our MPs. I just think of their wives."
Duflot was a former town planner who once wore jeans to a cabinet meeting.
Members of the Union for a Popular Movement, the party of former president Nicolas Sarkozy, were widely blamed for the abuse, The Sun said.
A video of the incident caused an outrage, with many people saying it highlighted the shortcomings of the political class.
MP Patrick Balkany, a close friend of Sarkozy, said Duflot put on the knee-length dress "so we wouldn't listen to what she was saying".
Women's Rights Minister Najat Vallaud-Belkacem said: "Sexism has no frontiers. We should set a better example."

What I saw was belly dancers, bats and bongs.
What I felt was a sense of fear imposed through a carefully orchestrated musical score, CSI-style taglines at the bottom of the screen and a dramatic baritone announcer.
What I heard was a cocktail of scare tactics and exuberant patriotism as the importance of each drug hit was underscored by a reminder that narcotics money funded terrorists who were out to destroy our country.
What I did not get from ABC's new series "Homeland Security," however, was the truth.

Join Forces to Bring Independent Hotels Revenue Growth Through Greater Online Presence

The Worldhotels guest demands a truly authentic experience; each of their independent hotels reflect the local character of the surrounding area, with white-glove attention and impeccable accommodations at each location.

"At our size, we need to carefully consider how we grow our portfolio. Our development strategy has to reflect our focus on quality over quantity."
Worldhotels has welcomed 10 new hotels to its global portfolio so far in 2015, including three in North America, four properties in Europe and three hotels in Asia. More hotels will be joining the Worldhotels organization in the coming months. To become a member of the Worldhotels portfolio, each hotel must meet the group's high standards for quality, and also must fit the strategic objectives of Worldhotels.
Worldhotels' unique business model offers independent hotels and local hotel groups the exposure and strength of an international brand, but gives each of them the freedom to run their operations as they'd prefer.
Added Tom Griffiths, Executive Vice President Worldhotels, "We are pleased to bring an eCommerce solution to our member properties.

Fans of Alison Day's work are ready to embark on the incredible journey of young Sam, in a train on his epic adventure. Written, illustrated and designed by Alison, this 88-page storybook will engage readers and provide a great story for children of all ages around the world to enjoy. There will be 43 full colour illustrations, of which 33 are reproductions of her classic pâpiermaché–mosaic artworks.
However, the story goes beyond simply being an exciting children's book. There is an underlying theme that is very close to Alison Day's heart and it is a message the world needs to hear, which is to: recycle, reuse and reinvent. She hopes this will encourage more people to opt to live a more eco-friendly lifestyle.
Funds received from the campaign will cover expenses to make the book a reality and pay for shipping costs. "Sam and the Adventure" will be available on softcover, hardcover, and softcover deluxe. There will also be a colouring book that adults can use to bond with their kids and enhance a child's creativity. Printing will be done by an online POD (Paid on Demand) service.
To make a contribution, visit the Kickstarter campaign or click here. Backers can choose from many attractive rewards as a "thank you" for their support.
Please keep in mind this is an "all-or-nothing" deal, which means if the campaign does not meet the fund goal then the project will not receive any financial support. So know that any amount donated matters! Help make "Sam and the Adventure" possible by sharing this on Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks.

Disclaimer: the organizations' social media approaches in this blog post were independently reviewed by roundCorner. roundCorner does not claim to have a relationship with these organizations.
According to Time Magazine, more than 3 billion people in the world have access to the Internet, with 278 million users located in the United States. Two thirds of these users use social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat and others (business2community.com) every day. But these users don't just consist of millennials or those keeping up with family members. Many are organizations that use social media to interact with their audience in a casual way, including nonprofits.
Studies show that organizations that use social media for six hours or more each week gain 52% more leads compared to those that don't (hootsuite.com). But social media does even more than that. For nonprofit organizations, social media provides enhanced visibility, helping them to drive their mission forward.
Let's take a look at 4 nonprofits that use social media in innovative ways to take their success to the next level.
Art Sphere: Leveraging Their Partner Community
With a solid list of partners, Art Sphere leverages their relationships to draw attention on social media. The organization diligently tags partners, including Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie and community partners in their posts. Consequently, they've gained a greater reach, making constituents aware of the companies that support them. Art Sphere provide the inner-city youth of Philadelphia with access to art and creativity.
Facebook. Twitter. Website.
The National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA): Capitalizing the Hashtag
NEDA heavily uses hashtag, which is a trending tag that links the post to a specific subject. They allocate unique hashtags to every event, walk or initiative, for example #WhyINEDAWalk or #NEDAConference2016. The team also encourages participants and constituents to use these in their social media posts. This results in greater reach for NEDA and its mission.
Facebook. Website.
The Wendy Walk: Sharing Personal Stories
The Wendy Walk takes a unique approach to social media. In addition to sharing the Wendy Walk event and articles about Sarcoma, a rare form of cancer, they also share personal stories of survival, loss and milestones of patients and their families. This social media approach educates the constituent and provides them with well-rounded information about the organization and the impact of this rare disease.
Facebook. Website.
The Ronald McDonald House Charities: Imagery and Quotes
Finally, The Ronald McDonald House Charities takes a subtle, yet powerful approach to what they share on social media. Much like the Wendy Walk, The Ronald McDonald House Charities uses story telling to attract the constituent. However, instead of sharing the story in a post, they use powerful images and engaging quotes to entice constituents to click. Their social media messages are conveyed in a way that triggers curiosity. Therefore, readers have the desire to discover the meaning behind the image and quote.

Washington, DC – U.S. Representative Mike Doyle (D-PA) today introduced bipartisan legislation that directs federal agencies to encourage open public access to federally funded scientific research.
"Americans have the right to see the results of research funded with taxpayer dollars," Congressman Doyle said in introducing the Federal Research Public Access Act. "Yet such research too often gets locked away behind a pay-wall, forcing those who want to learn from it to pay expensive subscription fees for access."
"The Federal Research Public Access Act will encourage broader collaboration among scholars in the scientific community by permitting widespread dissemination of research findings. Promoting greater collaboration will inevitably lead to more innovative research outcomes and more effective solutions in the fields of biomedicine, energy, education, and health care."
The Federal Research Public Access Act would require federal agencies with an extramural research budget of $100 million or more to make federally-funded research available for free online access by the general public, no later than six months after publication in a peer-reviewed journal.

Julia Keys followed the line taken by the former presenter yesterday by saying that his off-air exchanges with Andy Gray were lighthearted and typical studio banter.
Speaking outside the couple's home in Chobham, Surrey, Julia Keys added that the scandal should not end the former Sky Sports presenter's career even though he resigned last night with his reputation ruined.
"It's really sad," she said. "They [Keys and Gray] contributed so much, putting Sky on the map. Whether you like them personally or not, professionally there's very few who would knock them.
"I feel the wrong two guys were given the red card. It doesn't quite make sense in a way and it's questionable the way it has been handled. I think Sky was offside in the way it handled it.
"It's very sad after the career Richard has had that it has come to this but I do not see it as being the end of it."
A humiliating week for Keys and Gray began when an exchange was leaked in which they made fun of Sian Massey, an assistant referee at Molineux on Saturday, and criticised Wendy Toms, another official. They also made snide remarks about Karren Brady, the West Ham United vice-chairman.
The situation worsened when two clips of the men making sexist comments were posted on YouTube and led to Gray's sacking on Tuesday.
Julia Keys, however, saw little wrong in their exchanges, though she may regret her turn of phrase: "With men there are little bits of you that never grow up. It's banter from the boys.
She added: "What other people do not understand is the dynamics that go on in the studio. He [Keys] is very aware of the tensions and it not being as relaxed as it would be unless there were playful shenanigans."
Keys had worked on Sky Sports' football coverage since the start of the Premier League in 1992. Barney Francis, the television company's managing director, said: "It is disappointing that Richard's career at Sky should end in these circumstances.
"However, Richard recognises that his comments at the weekend were unacceptable and we note that he has made a full and public apology. We thank him for his time in helping make Sky Sports the success it is today."

John Krasinski and Emily Blunt Have A Pre-Valentine's Day Date At 'The Wolfman' Premiere
The couple headed back to the scene of their first date at Emily's big premiere in Hollywood!
Looking effortlessly stylish and oh-so-much in love, John Krasinski joined fiancee Emily Blunt Feb. 9 to support her at the premiere of her new movie, The Wolfman, at the Arclight Theaters in Hollywood — the very theater where they stepped out and showed us those first little sparks on a date night back in 2008.
An intensely private couple, John, 29, and Emily, 26, have been engaged since August 2009, and rarely make public appearances. Plus, with her international movie shoots and his series regular role on NBC's comedy, The Office, the two hardly ever have time to steal a night on the town. How nice it must have been to have a little date night right in time for Valentine's Day!
We have to admit, we saw the magic when John and Emily first stepped out as a couple at the Arclight Dec.15 2008…and we're so happy to see they're doing so well more than a year later.
Are you planning to step out somewhere familiar with your special someone this weekend?

Though I do not promise anything, I still try to provide solutions for each and every problem. In this post is given a Yantra to remove job obstacles and give peace of mind. These are 4 separate Yantras; but as the procedure, purpose and end result is exactly the same, I am combining them together.
The Yantra is to be prepared on a white piece of paper or a Bhojpatra.
The ink to be used is Ashtagandha.
The writing instrument is a pointed stick of the Guava Tree.
The Yantra can be prepared by inserting any one of these 4 letters – न. त. माँ and स. in the 9 squares of the Yantra.
Then once the Yantra is prepared it must be worshiped with offerings of Dhoop- Deep and Scented Flowers. Then some sweet Mithai should be offered to the Yantra as Prasad. The Prasad can after sometime be eaten.
|Yantras to remove obstacles in job
Then the Yantra should be folded and inserted in a Silver Locket and tied on the forearm of the right hand.

Web Applications and Databases
First and foremost, code G specializes in developing custom content management systems (CMS), web applications and database-driven websites. If you want to use more than one computer to do anything, then web applications are the only way to go. Accessing data from multiple locations, including working from home or on the road, without the cost and headache of having to manage a large networking solution, is essential. Built into the Internet is your cost-effective (FREE) solution to your networking needs. We can turn any computer connected to the Internet into a workstation for your company or an access point for your customers. What could be simpler?
A custom CMS is specifically tailored to the needs of your company. Unlike standard content management systems, e.g., Wordpress and Joomla, a custom CMS goes way beyond just the display of text for a specific page. Data can be displayed based on business rules that YOU define. For example, links, images and text can be displayed by date, user's location, time of year, product availabitlity, etc. Ordering systems can be built that work far better than a standard e-commerce site. Custom client portals allow your customers to view information that you want them to specifically see - and no one else will know.A web application uses your favorite web browser to access your data. Databases can process all of your data and make it dynamically available to you in real time. Whether you need an on-line catalog, e-commerce site, inventory management, portfolio and search engine, or just an on-line newsletter, code G has the expertise to quickly develop your project and meet all of your needs.
Other Services
More and more, software provides us with the tools to get things done in today's hectic world. However, many repetitive functions just aren't handled by available software because the task is too specific to your business / needs. code G can write scripts or mini-applications to handle those situations. You'll be surprised what we can do!

Dahlman Rose upgrades outlook for offshore drillers
Dahlman Rose is upgrading its outlook for offshore drilling stocks based on expected increased E&P spending.
"The combination of reduced OPEC production and decreased drilling activity has led to a much stronger oil price environment than we had anticipated and, in our view," says the firm," underscores the long-term trend of substantially more difficult drilling programs requiring higher oil prices. Offshore drilling demand has been under pressure this year, particularly for non-deepwater assets; however we are seeing signs of a reversal later this year. Several smaller E&Ps have announced increased capex spending plans in recent weeks which we point to as a strong signal that others will follow. Typically smaller E&Ps adjust spending first, followed by the larger companies."
While utilization remains an issue across the jack-up segment, with currently just 76% of the worldwide fleet employed, Dahlman Rose expects increased E&P demand later this year to support dayrates and higher utilization levels. It is raising its 2010 premium jack-up forecast to $120,000/day from $100,000/day. "There still remains just over 100 jack-ups available for new contract through the end of the year and the current pace of new fixtures implies global utilization will fall to below 70% by year-end," says the firm. "While this may still be the case we expect dayrates to hold firmer than historical norms due to increased stacking of rigs as well as higher oil prices."
Deepwater dayrates are expected to hold steady in the coming years. "We had previously cautioned that deepwater demand can remain strong but that lower oil prices would eventually lead to lower dayrates,"comments Dahlman Rose. "However with oil showing signs of a much higher support level than in past cycles we believe dayrates can hold steady at over $500,000/day versus our prior expectation of falling to $400,000/day once more rigs became available for contract after 2010."
Dahlman Rose sees jack-ups as currently having the most upside based on an increase in spending. "As expected the jack-up segment has been hit hard the most with dayrates and utilization levels substantially underperforming deepwater assets. Also public jack-up equities have traded at big discounts to NAV this year while deepwater players have held mostly to premiums. With smaller E&P spending on the rise, we expect jack-up equities to outperform. We believe Ensco (ESV) is best-positioned for such a rebound.
On a fully-invested enterprise value basis, offshore drilling stocks are trading at just 6-6.5x 2010-2012 EBITDA. "We believe this represents attractive entry points for the offshore drilling stocks even after the strong run several have had in recent weeks."
Dahlman Rose has made the following changes to its ratings:

Don't open your mouth and run it, I have people in my family who have actually fought and given their lives against a US-supported invasion of Iran by Iraq. You like to pretend you all fight for freedom and that you are all tough soldiers, but has your nation been forced to teach students in elementary and high schools how to operate a weapon because an invasion and death was that imminent? How about trying to sleep through bombs being dropped around them? Have you pulled the corpses of two of your REAL brothers(none of that military brainwash bull#) from the rubble of your missile stricken shop? People that are close to me have, and I respect them a HELL OF A LOT more than some ignorant mercenary pretending he's tough shooting folks from helicopters, planes and whatnot - then to come back with PTSD and beating his wife, pissing his pants at night having nightmares of "insurgents". Grow up.

A big problem with this world and what even POWERFUL elite are trying to find a way to conquer is karma and cycles.
We can't get away from it. Many people commit crimes or wrong doings against others and don't realize or want to accept that they will pay one day. Now when I say they will pay one day, maybe not them, but rather their descendents possibly.
I wonder if our Founding Fathers would have treated slaves the way they did if they considered their descendants would be the ones getting beat up in schools? Do any of you take into account that your actions may fall on your children?
I don't really lean on black slavery as much as some others because I know REAL history. I know that we Afrikans are being paid back for what WE did to the pale people from the Caucass mountains in a history that has been successfully hidden and erased.
In the same breath white people are being punished for what they did to blacks during American slavery.
Every perpetrator of violence...wants his/her victim to just forgive and forget. That's easier said than done and isn't how this plane of existance works right now. Every race is paying some other race back. Then that race is going to pay the other race back. It's a cycle that continues...
In this situation the teacher is dead wrong for sharing what that student said. She will be punished as the system see fit.

I live in one of the most racially charged cities in the U.S. This town is infested with hate, it breeds here. Everything from the middle school kids to those about to retire, the anger and segregation in this city is palpable. You can taste it.
I deal with racism every day, if it's not the people I work with, it's the people in my trade, if its not them, its on the streets. It's in the kids, parents, politicians, teachers, health care providers, insurance companies and especially city employees, mostly in Education and police forces.
"Ever since 1968 this town hasn't been the same" as quoted to me by a member of the National Guard during this time. The race card here is the only card that gets played that gets things done. Doesn't matter what the topic is as soon as the race card gets dropped there is nothing to be done, you have been effectively "Trumped".
What people call "reverse racism" I put up with every single day. It takes fortitude and stamina to not be a racist here. If you are white; this city is against you. If you are black; this city is at your beckon and call. It really is a notion of "black & white" and that my friends...is beyond sad. I hear the "N-word" all the time, used by both colors, it's a double standard, much as with a womens double standard when it comes to sex.
There have been times...hard times, when I wanted to give in, be a racist too, to yell and cuss those who have flagrantly been racist to me. Those times are a test to your civility, "the measure of a man" if you will. A defining moment in the path that you are to walk.
Why is that people like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson have any credibility in this country? They are two of the most racist, hate mongering individuals on the planet. There mission is to spew forth vile words and information, doing nothing but expanding the rift between blacks and whites. They get "ordained" so they can put "Reverend" before their name giving a sense of validity to there misguided followers and that they "speak not of falsities".
Racism is very strong where I'm from and until the people start seeing that it is a means to divide a nation, control the populace, and breed individuals that will not revolt against the government. I am afraid that the tides of hatred will forever pulse in the veins of our once great city.

Heck, it might not have even been your ancestors even, or your ancestors could have helped fight the oppression - but you will be blamed because there is a huge lack of understanding. And this lack of understanding will try to correct itself. You see that last part? That is what you are supposed to get from my post. Nothing else.

I do understand your point. However, I still don't feel guilty about the sins committed by people in the past.
You don't need to or have to. Who said you had to?
That is why I posed the question; "How does it feel to be white these days?"
Because if you don't know how it feels to be discriminated against you because of the color of your skin, you will NEVER understand how big that chip really is. And for you to turn and say; "well 'they' need to do this first" is akin to ordering people to forgive and forget...how is this possible without a mutual foundation of understanding?
I can only be responsible for my actions. When you ask the question "How does if feel to be white today?" , I have to assume that was a racist comment. Does it feel any different today to people based on the color of their skin?
Suppose that whites are discriminated against because of their skin color as I understood the premise of the discussion in this thread. It then becomes a reflective question. One person got it. That person is not you.
FYI I did quote your post. What's wrong with you?
