Envisioning Your Future: Strategic Planning for the Nonprofit Agency
Acquire the tools to conduct your own strategic planning process
Many nonprofit agencies find themselves so busy reacting to change and trying to survive that there never seems to be time left to plan ahead for a better future. The purpose of this seminar is to help break that cycle. It encourages agencies to get off the treadmill of day-to-day activities, deadlines and responsibilities, and to take a look at the bigger picture: Where are we now? Where do we want to be? How do we get there? How do we measure our results?
This one-day seminar presents a strategic planning process through which any agency, regardless of size and resources, can develop a picture of what it would like to become and begin organizing to achieve this vision
Date: TBA
Seminar Content:
- An overview of strategic planning and how it can help nonprofit agencies do a better job of managing change and planning for the future.
- A comprehensive planning process for different agency settings that is "user friendly" for agencies that do not have the luxury of spending months and months on planning.
- Participation in "hands on" sessions; apply the principles you learned in the design and development of your own agency's strategic plan.
Fee Information: $195 per participant (Fee includes light breakfast, lunch and seminar materials)
Faculty: TBA
Location: TBA
Full refunds will be given when cancellations are made at least five working days before the first class session. A $50 cancellation fee will be deducted from refunds when notification occurs fewer than five working days before class begins. No refunds will be made after the first session has begun.

The latest and greatest on CNN iReport, brought to you by Team iReport.
Comment of the day: "Puh-leese. "Social Network" is one of the most over-hyped movies ever!" -- Seraphim Models
Spacey says "TSN" should have won
After this year's Oscars wrapped, Kevin Spacey, executive producer of "The Social Network," said the film would now enter the "pantheon" of movies never to win the top prize. Time, a CNN partner, included the movie in its list of top-10 all-time Oscar snubs. But what did readers think?
Lord Langley said, "'The Social Network' works only as a social and cultural record not as an entertaining movie that stands alone. 'The King's Speech' is slightly more entertaining, better acting but a weak best film. My choice is 'Toy Story 3' which will stand the test of time. Shoulda won!" Taylor T said, "Obviously people have different opinions of every movie. I was bored in the 'Social Network.' Overall it was good, but take away the soundtrack and I feel like you lose the drama."
Readers who thought the movie was snubbed included Will H., who said, "'The King's Speech' is a great movie. Wonderful performances, builds nicely, classical structure. But the best film of the year was probably 'The Social Network' -- gripping, timely, directed with style, with an amazing script that renders a complicated series of events in a compelling, very human way. Fincher is a cold fish but I was sorry to see him lose Sunday night." And Michael Locher said, "'The Social Network,' in my opinion, was indeed the superior film. 'The King's Speech' was elegant and well-crafted, but it was also a conservative film with none of 'Social's' daring, complexity, and innovation. It's easily the trickiest, most sly and most contemporary study of modern life and work the Oscars have considered in years."
Other readers pointed out other snubs: DRFII said, "How can you omit the 'Out of Africa' win over 'The Color Purple' in 1985? This is certainly more egregious than 'The Social Network's' loss." Mw Joiner said, "The only Academy Award ceremony where I recall a movie being snubbed is when 'Forrest Gump' beat out 'Pulp Fiction.' " Rob Darden said, "One of the biggest Oscar snubs of all time was the total ignoring of Malcolm X for any awards. This was one of Denzel's finest performances, which was not even recognized in any category." And Kim S. Marshall said, "OMG. I STILL remember the pure SHOCK that 'Shakespeare in Love' could win over a profoundly moving, educational, realistic and historical movie like SAVING PRIVATE RYAN."
As protests continue in Wisconsin, some political experts wonder if Gov. Scott Walker, in a battle with public employee unions over the right to collective bargaining, has overreached in his attempts to shore up the state's budget shortfall.
CNN.com readers' opinions on the matter varied greatly, but many attempted to clarify the growing controversy.
Among readers who stood behind the protests, Flocktrie said, "Speaking of things states can't afford, Gov. Scott has proposed over $140 Million in tax cuts. If there's really a budget problem, why is he reducing incoming revenues? Oh, that's right. We must give welfare to the rich via tax cuts." Anotheralt said, "This concept of workers and employers contributing to retirement is ridiculous, in this instance. Contractually, it's literally ONLY the employees who are contributing to their retirement. Walker's rhetoric is pathetic." 2tired2care said, "They agreed to cuts in pay and benefits that would help cover the budget shortfall but that's still not enough for Walker."
And other commenters supported the governor. Snakebite201 said, "If you look at states with the most debt imbalance you will find the states that are not right to work. You may say that people in right-to-work states make less money. Well they do, but the cost of living is way lower. alboze said, "I was shocked to hear how much money these unions grab from the workers and they have no choice, it is deducted at gross with or without their agreement! No wonder the unions are fighting back so hard, its money for doing nothing. They might have to go out and get a job themselves."
An Atlanta woman recently received a $3,000 water bill, and Atlanta water officials received more than 22,000 calls in January about problems with their water bills. Water bill spikes were also reported in Ohio, Massachusetts, North Carolina and Florida, and many CNN.com readers shared their concerns.
pauld79 said, "I have lived in the city of Atlanta for seven years. Last month we received a bill for $1700 for an unoccupied condo that my wife and I used to own. We have been disputing this charge for a few weeks, but the 3rd party biller will not budge." cbmary said, "Maybe these folks should check into what has been happening in Brockton, Massachusetts for months." lkcolb said, "Why doesn't CNN look into the privatization of water in America? The bigger issue is who owns the water in Atlanta? And who owns water in other major cities in the U.S? It may surprise CNN."
But Sammie1eye88 said, "The water department in the community where I live installed an automatic meter reading system 5+ years ago; we never had any problems like this. And doonerist said, "I have a wealthy relative who likens her water bills to paying for Perrier. She complains bitterly about the injustice, but has almost an acre of manicured lawn and another couple acres of landscaped garden—and a 60k gallon pool."

On the story about weight. Every person can do something about this. After a lifetime of fighting a weight problem, I found the answer thru Weight Watchers. If you work it, it works well. I'm down 42 pounds and dropping weight every week.
About "the social network" v "the king's speech," I think the best film won. "The king's speech" was about 2 men overcoming barriers (speech impediment and social class) through friendship. "The social network" was about an intellectual elite screwing his best friend in order to become even more elite. Both are great films with great acting, great music and great atmosphere, but only one transcends entertainment to become an inspiration.
I walked out of the king's speech feeling uplifted. I walked out of the social network feeling entertained.
I uplift ''the social network'' movie because nowadays the social network site is one of the essential things in our daily life to be updated with family, friends and even for news. May be its quit not good for someone due to various reason.

I don't like eating in restaurants and never have, and if someone is trying to thank me, that's the last thing they should do. I declined and explained why.
I was told by someone else that this was unkind of me. This has happened before, and I find myself at a loss as to what to do.
Should I accept a thank-you that is uncomfortable for me, or should I continue to explain that a nice note in the mail would be perfectly acceptable? A box of chocolates is always nice, too.
And if they gave you chocolates, how could they be assured that you wouldn't give them a lecture on why you don't like eating chocolates and never have?
You don't have to accept the restaurant invitation. You may politely decline. But, Miss Manners begs of you, spare the group your reasoning — or helpful suggestions of what they could give you instead.Friend is moving
DEAR MISS MANNERS: What is the protocol when you receive a formal notice of someone buying and living in a new home?
You are supposed to check your contacts list, get out your address book and change the address you have for that person. Miss Manners can relieve you of the fear that you are obliged to help furnish that residence.Inappropriate gifts
DEAR MISS MANNERS: I have small children who are frequently given gifts from family members, some of which we don't feel appropriate for a child (toy weapons or revealing clothing for little girls, for example).
The givers fall into two categories: those who give the items because they say they know we will not purchase them for our children, and those who simply don't have the same point of view as we do about parenting.
At the moment it is possible for us to write a thank-you note stating that we are so touched that the person loves our children and has thought of them, and then put the gift away. However, this will get more difficult as the children get older and become aware of us withholding these gifts.
I wouldn't think of trying to tell people they should buy the children specific things, as of course gifts should never be expected, but I am at a loss of what to do. I worry that someday they will find out that we take the gifts away and be hurt.
Once your children have reached the age of awareness, you can't reasonably take away presents that they were witness to being given. It is, however, well within your parental rights to mandate where and how the undesirables may be worn or played with (i.e., only behind closed doors).
Even if you could police your friends, monitor the exchange or remove the presents entirely, Miss Manners warns you against it. If your children really want them, they will find a way to procure the coveted objects eventually anyway. Wouldn't you rather they do it under your guidance and jurisdiction?

Words and Violence Fourth Edition- Bullying the Planet
Introduction to the Fouth Edition:
Because we are in a time of transition and the issues facing humankind and all of this planet's bio-diverse kin are urgent, we didn't just extend the work of "Words and Violence" to the big picture; we extended it to the biggest—as we addressed bullying the planet. There are innumerable ways we bully Planet Earth and only one way to save and steward her—to not just a state of survival but to "thrival." That way is active compassion.
The ways we bully the Earth are countless:
•Irresponsible environmental stewardship •Exploitation of the Indigenous • Mismanagement of land, oceans, water, air •The greed of earth's resources that belong to all, not to those who wish to conscript them as commodities and commerce •The skewed and exploited economy
• Climate change •Artificial agriculture and food production •Political indifference or the abuse of influence •The treatment of animals •Land grabs and mismanagement •The collective psychic disconnection and denial •The moral vacuum in business and commerce •Racism •Double standards •The rising phenomenon of a spiritual vacuum •The abuse of authority and power •The trampling of human and civil rights •Slavery •Conflict •Gentrification •Terrorism • Genocide •War...
It's the frantic, irresponsible and runaway "colonization" of our planet and it resources that have led us to this detour from enlightenment in human evolution and to the path of possible extinction. Urgent and drastic change must be implemented if we are to save our planet and turn our course away from destruction. There is one thing we can do that will turn this capricious runaway destruction around: employ and deploy compassion.
The way we reverse the damage and institute the responsible stewardship of Earth, her life and her myriad species including humans, is through compassion. From now on, we must act from and with compassion.
Who Will Save Us Now?
Earth to Crew: "You are cordially Invited…"
By Barbara Kaufmann
I used to love Star Trek. It was pure magic. Then came Star Trek the Next Generation Series and its sequels, there was Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Avatar. The science fiction born of the human mind took us into deep space, propelled us at warp speed, examined the "dark side," found us heroes, brought us champions of humanity, showed us the power of true community and gave us magic—all bubbling up from the well of human imagination.
Imagination is the birthplace of reality. To create something, you must first imagine it. Everything that exists was once an idea in somebody's mind. Before a wheel was a wheel, it was one neuron triggering a million more neurons firing in some outlander part of the human brain. Tiny ideas hatched and incubated have made medicines that save lives, machines that fly to the moon, explored the human genome, harnessed ions to heal burns, flung voices and pictures through the air and brought the entire world to a tiny device on our lap or in our hand. Humanity follows micro ideas drafted for macro evolution.
The micro dimension always has its macro counterpart. One grain of sand multiplied makes a beach just as one drop of water becomes an ocean. Echoed in many sacred texts in metaphor and allegory, this idea translates: "as above; so below." It's the mirror effect—what is seen here has a reflection there. The mirror principle works also in the making of worlds. There is a correlation between who we are being, what we are doing and—how the world is.
"Down here" standing in my singular footprints upon the earth, I have an impact on our ecosystem we dub "the world." We together, are inventing the world every day. The world's reality is the vectoring of all human endeavor from the time our species first appeared on the planet. Every action I take impacts my world – both micro and macro just as it did my ancestors and their ancestors. And yours.
In our demanding and challenging lives, we can sometimes forget our connection to the macro, or we ignore the macro entirely and even deny our part in its construction. We impact our ecosystem—the totality of our surroundings—with every thought we think, every decision we make, every action we take. With every alive breath, we are leaving a footprint, a legacy, an imprint on our world. That legacy doesn't just live here and now and contribute to the present state of affairs, it lingers long after we're gone.
So is our state of affairs hopeless? Not as long as there are humans willing to access their creativity and inner brilliance. We have created this world and we can create another. What kind of world do you want to create? Our footprints and legacies and imprints create that world—the one we inhabit and live with. It's not just the land mass, it's the collective of humanity's mind that creates the invisible but prevailing "weather" that our minds, vectored, have spilled into our atmosphere—where we all must live and breathe daily. It's custom. It's what we do and what we will tolerate—or not. It's the choices we make—or not. It's the "stuff" that humanity "agrees with" because it is the result of what humanity tolerates and produces—or not.
Humanity must stop agreeing with violence. In the past, it certainly has accepted war. Humanity has tolerated greed and exploitation and something relatively new on the scene—terrorism. Those are not necessary ingredients for the building of nations, cultures and a world. If we agree on something, we can create it. If we eschew something collectively, we can create it out of existence. Some ancient cultures unearthed by archeologists show no evidence of violence or war; instead there is abundant evidence of community and cooperation.
Unfortunately we have a history of learning more from fear than from love. We have lived with half a heart. If we engage the other half, there will be no place for fear and no for creating artificial differences, dividing lines, separation, and making some humans "other" or enemies, and for banishing undesirables, gentrification, genocide, racism, war…
Perhaps giving an immature species a planet to play with before they were ready to be responsible for it and each other, was not very wise. As a logical outgrowth of all our previous immature and unwise customs, we've even invented a way to destroy ourselves.
Have we grown up? Are we aware of the sobering consequences of our neglect, and indifference and do we understand that we create our reality by the vectoring of each of our contributions? Do we understand that "we the people" determine what we will "agree with:" tolerate, produce, invent, disseminate, foster, foment, ignore, deny, and tightly hang on to? That vectoring so far has gotten us to a dangerous place. Rather than abdicate our responsibility and stewardship, we must each step up to share our voice and action to create the reality we want. We are the ones who must lgive voice and action to the will of the collective. We are, after all, the world.
Science tells us we have a deadline: we have about 2 years to save ourselves. The paid climate deniers, profiteers and exploiters, those who hide their real agenda of profit over people even at the expense of the planet, will remain in their self-centered infancy and arrogance. They are gripped by a disease of greed and entitlement. They will continue to claim that entitlement because they're conditioned to believe that their fortunes will buy them whatever they want. They can't connect the dots that would clearly illustrate that if humanity is extinct, there will be no one to sell to or profit from.
This madness and infectious disease is not sane, and it will continue to live in those infected until the very last tree is cut down, the last drop of water gone. The native peoples and elders have called this afflicition "Wetiko" or "Windigo." We can't cure it; the disease is in the mind of the greedy, is not rational and has taken up residence there. The only chance for Mother Earth is for the collective to work around those infected and call for reform.
If we looked at the ingredients we have stirred into this "recipe" of life on the planet we'd see that the stew we are in, is toxic. We're stewing in something that doesn't support life and diminishes the quality of existence. Some of our human family are sick; some are starving; some are arguing with others over turf that they staked out and claim to own. Who owns the earth? Who can own the earth? Who gives the authority for that? Divvying up parcels of land and establishing borders is manmade and artificial. When you look at this island from space, do you see dividing lines?
It's our worldview that established a culture of "colonization." That was before NASA left the Earth and brought back photographs that glimpsed the truth: this is a finite, fragile world we share. The worldview of the past is no longer relevant and the old ways don't work anymore because it simply doesn't reflect the truth anymore. It still lingers, however, as the reality soup we are all immersed in at the moment, and we are close to drowning in our own concoction. We can stir in new ingredients and sweeten the pot so we can all live here in harmony. We create the world by what we are willing to support. Time to employ compassion in all our affairs? Compassion for self, for others and for the planet? Is it the antidote? Shall we experiment?
We must employ something other than what we have been doing if we want alternate results. As we live out our short lives on this tiny ball of dirt out on the arm of a single galaxy in a sea of galaxies floating in the vast and frightening-black-endless-nothingness-of-space, it might be wise to understand that if we humans mess up this unique little island, there is nowhere else to go. There is no twin planet to move to. There is no backup system, no emergency life support. Our endless "colonizing" of Earth, has led us to the edge. Beyond that fragile, precious thin edge of earth… awaits the cold sure grip of… death.
Earth, it turns out after all, is not really a big place. It is impossible to do something here on this side of the world that doesn't impact somebody there, on the other side. This planet, our Earth, if compared to an apple with its core, body and skin—has a viable atmosphere that is only the thickness of that apple's skin. Peel away that skin and life ends.
To make the soup we're in nourishing, we must move from an ego-centric species to an eco-centric one and begin cultivating those other innate but latently engaged characteristics that are also hard-wired into humanity—compassion, kindness, empathy, gratitude, reverence, a sense of common good and community. Those ingredients make for a healthier soup of existence.
We alone decide the ingredients. We can pretend we don't see the effects of a toxic ecosystem of insanity, separation, conflict and violence. What if we stirred in unity, solidarity, love, compassion and sacred activism for our sake and the sake of our companions. We can act from the understanding that we are all partners on this unique island— a very unusual ball of dirt hanging out in space in a galaxy far, far away… from everywhere.
Our planet truly is on a Star Trek and we are the passengers. There is no next stop where we can get off. So, if we want to save us and create a healthy, sustainable and life-supporting and human-nurturing ecosystem, we must "go to warp speed, Number One" insert your name here,] and "make it so."
Earth Crew- will you engage?
Will you? Will you engage with us? This fourth edition of Words and Violence is an Open Edition that takes on not just the bigger issues of bullying—but the biggest picture: Bullying the Planet.
We need your involvement. Bullying is epidemic not just in our society, but on our planet. It comes from greed based on fear and scarcity. Not the most attractive attribute of human nature, the greed born of that fear has caused damage that we are being warned, is close to beyond repair. But before we collapse in resignation, we must understand that yes, we live in urgent times with emergent issues, and we "get" on some level that the old ways don't work any longer while the new ways are not yet established.
So who shall we look to for solutions? Our leaders? The politicians? Corporations? Businesses? Governments? Who saved us when we were children? Mom and Dad? Aunt Sally? Grandpa? They can't save us now. We are grownups and we've made a mess. A big mess. Who will arrive to save us now? Superman? Are we waiting for The X Men?
Stop waiting; we are them.
Didn't Mom always say clean up after yourself? There is no time left to stall. We can't move to a new home. There is no new home. We are here. We are not children anymore. The superheroes are us. Time to grow up, clean our mess, share our toys and make friends.
That other half of the heart—the one that holds generosity and courage knows the value of unity, solidarity, community, shared responsibility, cooperation, collaboration and stewardship. The heart feels the truth of engaging compassion for self, others and the Earth. Compassionate action cures the illness.
"We are the ones we have been waiting for."
This Fourth Edition of Words and Violence is an open edition which means that we will build it together. We build it to educate ourselves, others and to create change.
In a new world, a new time, a pivotal evolutionary moment of transition is upon us that can prove transformative. Since we share this work, we invite you to send us materials: case studies, articles you find, essays you write, photos, videos, films, music, poetry, rap, hip hop, photo and film essays and resources that we all may share to turn things around. We invite your ideas and submissions. We especially invite our youth to use the arts and pop culture to create message.
What if you acknowleded this earthship as yours and you acknowledged you're place as one of the crew? What if you made it your personal responsibility to build this new stewardship with its new reality? What if you came along and recruited your companions? We could build this new reality together. Want to take us to warp drive, faithful Earth crew?
Steady... and "Engage!"

How accurate is a borrowing calculator?
Online borrowing calculators like Aussie's Borrowing Calculator only provide an estimate of how much you may be able to borrow, based on a simple set of figures. Speaking with a broker or lender will help you determine how much you can borrow from a specific lender.
The best idea, however, is to get a fully personalised borrowing figure that takes into consideration your detailed financial situation and home loan needs. At Aussie we can find an amount and a loan that we're sure will be right for you

A new addition to the shelves upon shelves of cookbooks in American bookstores is a handsome volume of mostly Polish recipes called At Hanka's Table, by Hanka Sawka and her daughter Hanna Maria Sawka. But this is much more than a cookbook.
It is also an account of the Sawka family's odyssey from the repressive communist Poland of the 1970s to the peaceful haven of New York state's Catskill Mountains. The authors talk about their book, and their life in America, in this edition of New American Voices.
At the heart of the Sawka family's saga is its pater familias, artist Jan Sawka. As a young, independent-minded painter in communist Poland in the early 1970s, he was limited by the regime to creating poster art. But as his posters gained popularity, not only in Poland but abroad as well, and as he turned into a cult figure for Poland's vibrant counter-culture, he became and unwelcome thorn in the regime's side. So in 1976 Jan Sawka, his wife Hanka and their 9-month old daughter Hanna were given one week to pack up and leave the country. "My husband was really very dangerous for the communists because his attitude and art, which was absolutely free, was not an example of what they wanted," Hanka Sawka recalls. "They were afraid to jail him or kill him because of bad propaganda for them, so they decided if they will throw us out of Poland, he will simply disappear in the West."
The family spent two years in Paris. Jan Sawka painted feverishly and organized several well-received exhibitions of his art. But money was scarce, so Hanka Sawka learned to create what she calls "super-minimalistic" dishes out of almost nothing to feed her family. In the process, she also learned the basics of French cooking. When it became apparent that Paris was not the place for Jan Sawka to develop his career, the family applied for and were granted visas to the United States as political refugees.
They arrived in New York with fifty-two dollars to their name. Hanka Sawka says on the plane to America she cried the entire time. "It was very difficult, because I was really scared when I closed the house in France. You know, when you're left totally alone without a base of family or your friends, and you're traveling basically you don't know where..." she says. "When we were going to America the communists were creating an absolutely awful image, especially of America, so I was suddenly thinking, 'My God, how will it be over there? How will we start our life again over there?"
Hanka Sawka quickly learned that her fears were unfounded. "When we came here it was so incredible, because so many people started to help us," she says, adding, "of course my husband already had a reputation when he came here because his posters were all over the world. There was this incredible welcome of American artists, who started to help my husband. So in three weeks he started to illustrate the New York Times op-ed page, then in half a year he had a gallery and started to build his career to be a painter."
For many years, the Sawkas lived in a little apartment on Manhattan's east side, not far from the United Nations headquarters. While Jan was building an increasingly successful career as a many-faceted artist, Hanka was raising their daughter and entertaining their many friends. "In our home it was basically business, because he was working at home all his life," Hanka Sawka explains. "We had no money to invite people for lunches or dinners in Manhattan, so I decided okay, I have to start to cook and do it at home. So for twenty dollars I was making these huge parties, basically, with three meals for six-eight people. And this is how I started to master my culinary talent."
Eventually the family moved to an old farmhouse in the picturesque Catskill Mountains north of New York City. Hanka Sawka continued hosting friends in her art-filled home and honing her culinary skills. The culmination of this is the cookbook-autobiography, At Hanka's Table. It features some French recipes, some from other countries Hanka visited in her extensive travels abroad with her husband, as well as many traditional Polish recipes simplified for the time-pressed modern American cook.
The book was a family undertaking: Jan Sawka provided the imaginative, colorful illustrations, and daughter Hanna, a film director, helped her mother tell their story. "My job as co-author was to bring my mother's voice and her way of thinking across as well as possible to the American reader," she explains. "This was a challenge, because first of all I grew up being very aware of Polish history. I grew up being aware that life under communism was very difficult and unusual, so when we were writing the book I had to put myself in the place of an American reader and think what questions would arise in the reader's mind, kind of what gaps we'd have to fill that someone without this background would have."
Hanna Sawka says that collaborating with her mother on the book and doing research for it strengthened her connection with her Polish heritage. "My mother always did her best to raise me to be proud of where I came from, to be aware, so I would just be a stronger person with an identity that I understood," she recalled. "It definitely was a big confrontation with a lot of things, writing this book, but a very healthy one, because I just learned a lot more about my background, about where the family is originally from - which makes life in a way richer, when you're aware of history, when you're aware of things that happened in the past."
Now Hanka and Hanna Sawka are working on their next project: turning the book into a television show that will feature not only cooking and recipes, but also tips on living.

CL V2.0 coming in May, with advanced control and expandability
Mar, 2014
March 12, 2014, Shizuoka, Japan – Yamaha's CL series, the new industry standard, gains even more power and versatility in V2.0.
Based on the concept that "the standards stay, but innovation never ends," the CL series digital mixing consoles have become industry standards. They offer groundbreaking refinements to highly regarded Yamaha operability while delivering outstanding sound quality throughout, including state-of-the-art Premium Rack processing. User Defined Knobs take control convenience to a new level, while Dante audio networking and live recording with Nuendo Live software define a new era of digital console capability.
Version 1.5 was released last March with Scene Preview plus discovery and patching for NEXO NXAMP Powered Digital TDcontrollers. Then in July, Version 1.6 introduced discovery and patching for Shure ULX-D Digital Wireless Systems. Version 1.7 was released in December, with new features that enhanced the console's suitability for complex applications such as festivals.
In addition to refinements that improve operation in live sound applications, Version 2.0 includes mix-minus capability for the broadcast market, broadening the range of applications where CL series performance can be advantageous. Another addition is discovery and head amp control for the simultaneously released compact QL consoles that inherit CL series features and performance. A QL console can function as both monitor mixer and I/O rack, for example, while a front-of-house CL console can remotely control the head amp gain of the QL console's I/O.
The CL V2.0 update will be available for download from the Yamaha Pro Audio website as of May 2014, and it will be free of charge.
Some of the new features provided with CL V2.0 are listed below:
New features with Version 2.0
DCA Roll-Out
Channels assigned to DCA groups can be instantly called up to the console faders for enhanced operational flexibility. While operating the DCA faders in the Centralogic section, DCA Roll-Out can be used to call channels assigned to a specified DCA group up to the fader bank to the left of the Centralogic section, or conversely, the left fader bank can be used for DCA fader control while DCA Roll-Out brings the DCA channels up to the Centralogic section.
Output DCA
The Stereo/Mono bus masters, Mix bus masters, and Matrix bus masters can be assigned to DCA groups. This means that in addition to conventional input channel grouping, DCA groups can be used for output master control as well. The extra control flexibility provided by this new feature can significantly improve overall workflow.
Mix Minus
Mix Minus, an important feature in broadcast applications, is now provided. With one simple operation the signal from a specified channel can be removed from a specified bus. This can be used to remove a reporter's location feed from a mix, for example.
Read Only Scene Memory
It is now possible to create read-only scene memories. The ability to specify read-only scenes provides extra data security by ensuring that those scenes will not be overwritten even when a console file is loaded.
Daisy Chain Insert
Two devices can now be inserted into one channel or bus for enhanced processing freedom. This makes it possible to create process chains such as a Portico 5033 equalizer followed by an Open Deck simulation, or an MY8-LAKE (Mesa EQ) processor followed by a Portico 5043 compressor/limiter, for example.
GR Meter Option on Channel Name Display
It is now possible to show the Dynamics 1 and Dynamics 2 gain reduction meters in the channel name display. This makes gain reduction status visible even when the Overview or Selected Channel display is not showing. Channel encoder value or gain reduction display can be selected via the preferences.
AG to DG Link Option for Gain Compensation
Analog gain control can be linked to digital gain within the console when Gain Compensation is engaged. Local analog gain adjustments made with the Link function enabled affect console gain in the conventional way, while the Gain Compensation function maintains constant gain levels at other consoles so unexpected gain changes won't disrupt the program.
Chihaya "Chick" Hirai, Yamaha Pro Audio PA department manager comments: "CL V2.0 not only adds new features that are also included in the simultaneously released QL series consoles, but it also adds support for the broadcast market with Mix Minus functionality that is particularly important for relay broadcasts. With this update the CL series offers added operational convenience for broadcast applications, while also gaining significant system expansion capability through functional integration with the new QL series consoles. We will also be adding built-in Dugan automatic mixing as introduced in the QL series, plus additional support for broadcast applications to the CL series. Yamaha will continue to keep a close eye on the market in order to provide features and performance that will be of maximum value to our customers."

(Reuters) - The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority will appeal a ruling that allowed Charles Schwab Corp to require customers to waive their right to participate in class-action suits, a spokeswoman said on Tuesday.
"We are in the process of filing an appeal," a FINRA spokeswoman told Reuters in an emailed statement. The decision comes after a hearing panel decision last Thursday that upheld Schwab's late 2011 move to require clients to waive their class-action rights. Schwab's action violates FINRA's rules, but the rules themselves violate the National Arbitration Act, the panel found.

Five Four Club Subscription Review & Coupon – November 2014
Five Four Club is a monthly men's clothing subscription service. You take a brief survey when you sign up (sizes and style preferences), and then each month they send you on average 2-3 new clothing pieces or accessories.
My husband has been subscribing for over a year now and in general is very happy with the quality of the clothing and the value. (We've found the sizing to be similar to American Eagle's sizing if that helps!)
My Subscription Addiction pays for this subscription. (Check out the review process post to learn more about how we review boxes).
The Subscription Box: Five Four Club
The Cost: $60 a month (includes free shipping)
COUPON: Use coupon code MSA15BONUS to get a free bonus item with your first month plus $15 off!
The Products: The Products: Men's Clothing customized to your profile valued at over $100
Ships to: US and Canada ($25 surcharge for Canadian orders)
Check out all of my Five Four Club reviews and the Men's Subscription Box Directory!
Blue Plaid Scarf – Value $25
(100% Viscose)
This scarf has a nice silky feel, and I'm totally keeping for myself! (My husband doesn't really wear scarves anyway).
Broadway Jacket – Value $98
This is a lightweight jacket with a lining. The material feels a little athletic-wear inspired, which I think is a good contrast to the style. And the only part that really matters – my husband likes it!
Verdict: This is one of our better Five Four Club months! My husband really likes the jacket and I know he'll wear it a lot, and I get something too! (Which is important because I am in such desperate need of scarves!) Also – I think we'd definitely pay $60 for both of these items, so the value works for me. (Five Four makes their own clothing, so I take their suggested retail values with a grain of salt. But according to their retail values this month's shipment is worth $123.)
What do you think of Five Four Club?

Building up a portfolio of stable and high dividend paying stocks is one of the easiest and sure-fire ways to create a steady stream of truly passive income. Literally – you don't have to do anything to earn the money except own the stock! How simple is that?
But before you can own them, you have to learn how to invest in dividend stocks if you want to take advantage of the rewards they bring. Just like any type of security, there are good and bad dividend stocks to purchase. In this post, we'll talk about some of the ways to screen them and select the best ones for your passive income portfolio.
What is a Dividend Stock?
The first step in learning how to get into dividend stocks is first understanding what they are.
A dividend stock is a type of common stock that periodically pays its shareholders (i.e. you) a small payment; usually every quarter (3 months). These quarterly payments are exactly how you can make some extra money right away from owning these stocks.
Where does the money for these dividend payments come from? Generally it comes from the profits that the company has generated. Think of it as a way for the company to reward its shareholders for investing and believing in the company.
This will be a very important detail to remember as you're doing your research because you will come across many companies that seem to offer high dividend payments despite making little or even no profits. If that's the case, it could be a red-flag warning that the company is having financial trouble and trying to inflate its dividend yield in an attempt to attract new shareholders. While there might be some possible short-term gain to be had, use caution with these types of companies. A company that doesn't make profits won't be able to sustain very high (or any) dividend payments for very long.
Researching Dividend Stocks:
There are many different ways to research dividend paying stocks before you invest in them. For example, a quick Google search will quickly put you into contact with a number of blogs and websites ran by dividend stock enthusiasts.
Personally I like to invest in relatively safe and stable companies. So the first two places I look are at the stocks that compromise the major indices: The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average. You can easily punch in the ticker symbol into your favorite stock screener website and get all the details you'll ever need about the company and its finances. My favorite ones to use are CNN Money and Yahoo Finance.
Things you'll want to look for to see if the stock is a good opportunity or not:
- Dividend yield – This metric is a comparison of the dividend payment divided by the price of the stock. Stocks with yields between 3 and 5% are considered pretty high (but not too high that you should be concerned).
- Dividend payout ratio – The dividend payout ratio is a metric is a comparison of the amount of dividends per share against earnings per share. For example, a ratio of 100% would indicate that the company is turning all of its profits into dividend payments. That type of scenario would be in instable and couldn't continue for very long. Generally stocks in the 30 to 70% range are normal. However this will vary depending on the type of industry the stock is in.
- PE Ratio (Price to Earnings ratio) – The PE Ratio is a classic stock metric that compares the market price against earnings. Generally stocks with lower PE Ratios are thought to be bargain opportunities. I bring it up here because even though a stock may seem like a good opportunity to make some dividend income, it might fundamentally be a poor investment choice. Therefore price should be considered.
There are many other metrics you could consider. Every stock enthusiast in the world has their own opinions about what other metrics you should watch out for.
A quick shortcut I like to use to keep my risk modest is to select good blue chip dividend stocks from two famous groups called the Dogs of the Dow and The Dividend Aristocrats.
The Dogs of the Dow are the top 10 stocks among the 30 stocks in the Dow Industrial Average with the highest dividend yields. People like to invest in this group because a high dividend yield indicates the price is likely below market average and a good opportunity.
The Dividend Aristocrats are a group of companies that have not decreased their dividend payouts in over 25 years; despite any financial hardships or market conditions (like bull markets or recessions). Imagine that – steady and increasing dividend payments for over 25 years despite the market price of the stock itself!
Purchasing Your Dividend Stocks:
Once you've got your list of purchases together, the last step to investing in dividend stocks is by far the easiest one: Go to your favorite discount, online broker (I use Fidelity), setup and fund your account, and then start making your purchases!
That's really all there is to it. A lot of people think that buying stocks is more complicated than that – as if you have to make several trades per day or time the market. But truthfully it is a much simpler process than that. Just make sure your funds are ready to go and then make your purchase.
Once I purchase my dividend stocks, I like to give them at least a year before I make any changes to the portfolio. This is mostly due to tax reasons. In the U.S., if you hold a stock for less than a year, then it counts as a short-term capital gain and will be taxed at a higher rate. By waiting over a year to sell the stock (if I choose to do so), the stock then becomes a long-term capital gain and gets taxed at a lower rate and can be calculated using a taxcaster's tool.
As time goes on and you begin to receive dividend payments, the money will passively collect in your core brokerage account. You can decide if you'd like to withdraw these dividend payments or use them to make future stock purchases.
One cool thing most online brokers will let you do with your dividend income payments is to setup a DRIP (dividend reinvestment plan). What this does is automatically take your dividend payments and use them to purchase more shares of the same stock. The advantage is that you can usually do this at no cost and you can purchase fractions of shares instead of whole ones. If you don't need the money right away, it's a pretty great way to build your portfolio up even faster!

Portland police have arrested an 18-year-old in connection with the fatal shooting Tuesday of his roommate in their East Portland home.
Andrew G. Perez is being held on accusations of criminally negligent homicide. Police say Perez accidentally shot Chance D. Caron, 18, in a home on the 11700 block of East Burnside.
The cause of death appears to be a single gunshot wound.
The victim was apparently shot before 2:30 p.m., when police responded to a report of a shooting from a neighbor.
The house, a one-story home that's painted white with red trim, is close to Ventura Park Elementary School at the corner of 117th and Burnside.

For a while now, DVD players — and to some extent Blu-ray players — have been losing prevalence. Apple began removing optical drives from its laptops years ago, and today even gaming PCs rely more on digital downloads than on optical media. Rather than recycle those DVD drives, a researcher at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm has turned a commercial DVD drive into a laser scanning microscope. This microscope can image cells, as well as analyze blood, making it a cheap way to test for illness.
The researcher, Aman Russom, and his team, say that the DVD drive can analyze DNA and RNA, as well as proteins and whole cells at a quick pace. This means it can complete an HIV test in a matter of minutes. The team calls the device a Lab-on-DVD, and through the use of a regular DVD player, it can image cells with a one-micrometer resolution — making it fairly precise.
Flow cytometry, a standard practice in HIV testing, involves the counting and organization of cells. Though standard practice, a flow cytometry machine is still quite expensive — sometimes reaching $30,000. This means that developing countries or underfunded practices may not be able to afford one. However, a cheap DVD player is eminently more affordable, and the Lab-on-DVD is estimated to cost as low as $200. Due to the nature of the device, it would also be more portable than a standard flow cytometry machine, as well as easier to use.
Perhaps best of all, though, is that the Lab-on-DVD works so quickly that it can provide a patient with a result right then and there, without requiring the patient to go home and suffer through an anxiety-inducing waiting period.
We're not professional biochemists over here at Geek, but we do see the similarity between a machine that uses a laser to image cells, and a machine that uses a laser to image data. For patients of underfunded hospitals or living in developing countries, it's a boon that Russom and his team not only saw the similarities, but were able to do something about it. It's certainly a better use for a DVD player than having it sitting in the basement next to your old HDDs that have been replaced by speedy SSDs.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A New York City firefighter recently honored for saving the life of a seven-year-old boy was killed while battling a blaze at a high-rise apartment building, fire department officials said Sunday.
Gordon Matthew Ambelas, 40, a 14-year veteran of the New York City Fire Department, was among more than 100 firefighters that responded to the fast-moving blaze at the Brooklyn building late on Saturday, officials said.
Ambelas was searching the 19th floor for trapped residents when he was overcome by flames and smoke, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio said in a late night press conference.
"We've lost a real hero tonight and our hearts are heavy," de Blasio said. "Unfortunately tonight one of New York's bravest has paid the ultimate price and we all mourn his loss."
Four other people were injured in the blaze, fire officials said.
Ambelas, a married father of two children, was honored in June for helping to save the life of a seven-year-old Brooklyn boy whose head and arm became stuck in a rolling gate, pulling the child 15 feet off the ground.
The last New York City firefighter to die in the line of duty was in 2012, according to fire officials.

Analytic Geometry Analytic geometry was brought fourth by the famous French mathematician Rene' Descartes in 1637. Descartes did not start his studying and working with geometry until after he had retired out of the army and settled down. If not for Descartes great discovery then Sir Isaac Newton might not have ever invented the concept of calculus. Descartes concept let to calculus and Newton and G.W. Leibniz would not be know as well as they are today if it were not for the famous mathematician Rene' Descartes. Analytic geometry is a, "branch of geometry in which points are represented with respect to a coordinate system, such as Cartesian coordinates, and in which the approach to geometric problems is primarily algebraic." (Analytic Geometry) Analytic geometry is used to find distances, slopes, midpoints, and many many other things using special equations and formulas to determine what a person is looking for. Analytic geometry concentrates very much on algebra, generally, it is taught to students in algebra classes and becomes very helpful when being used in geometry. It is not very often when geometry is taught not using the algebra to solve the problems, unless proving statements, analytic geometry is used most often when speaking of geometry, it is the guidelines of geometry. It is a set way to find out answers to problems. There are many simple formulas to analytic geometry, but some of them get very complex and difficult. Analytic geometry is not only used in math, it is very common to see it being used in any kind of science, logic, and any other mathematical subjects. There are formulas in this form of mathematics in which the volume of a gas is measured, and other formulas along those lines (Encyclopedia.com). Some formulas and equations of analytic geometry are: The midpoint formula- (change in...

Since the event of the terrorist attacks in New York on September 11, 2001, the issue of terrorism has received a considerable amount of media attention. The recent bombings of Bali and Jakarta caused this media focus to be further intensified allowing much discussion and debate between commentators such as Andrew Bolt, presenting their view on possible motives for such terrorist attacks. 'The Blast of Truth', appearing in The Herald Sun on Thursday 7th August, 2003, advocates his blatant opinion on this issue with a contention that terrorism is not a war against "Australia or wicked America", but rather against freedom. Bolt employs various persuasive techniques with the intention to sway the reader whilst clearly revealing his prominent stance on the fight for freedom as he puts it. Throughout the article, the author adopts the use of colloquial language and begins his discussion with a sarcastic tone. This language is designed to generate a particular level of interest and creates an informal atmosphere. As the discussion progresses, Bolt reveals a much more authoritative and arrogant tone as he recounts his experience visiting Bali himself. With the mention of this background, he instils a sense of credibility into his arguments. Without this, the reader would not have an adequate amount of information, due to the lack of use of statistics, expert opinion or facts. One of the most apparent persuasive devices Bolt exercised in the article was his use of emotive terms. On several occasions, it is evident that strong words were deliberately used in order to evoke strong emotional responses from the reader. "…as pieces of dead Indonesians are picked off the pavement…" The disturbing and graphic words the author uses to portray his point of view enables the audience to paint a vivid picture of the scene he envisions in their minds. The...

Analytical Essay on 'Race Relations' In the poem, 'Race Relations' by Jean Burgess the main theme is the discrimination against the little black girl, we know this because the two little girls were playing together in their own little world doing no harm until the white girls' mother started cursing her daughter for interacting with a black girl even though they were doing nothing wrong This was conveyed to us because before the mother realised her daughter was playing with a black girl she was calmer. A main idea portrayed in this poem is the parents' influence on the little girl, as she did not see anything wrong with playing with the black girl and would not have seen anything wrong with it if her mother had not yelled at her for doing it. We know this as the Jean Burgess writes about the little white girl leaving as 'Dragging her feet Mary moved slowly, moved towards her mother' so we realise Mary doesn't want to leave because she is dragging her feet and also being forced to leave by her mother. Another main idea is the whites showing prejudice towards the little black girl as she has not shown an act in which the white parents could form this prejudice against her. Evidence of this prejudice against the black girl is 'How he'll scold you, and serve you right, who have no proper pride.' This shows us that the mother is marginalizing the little black girl as she has judged her by thinking she has no right to play with her daughter. The children were very happy playing together, we know this because when they were playing together they did not notice anything too busy building their sandcastles evidence of this is the whole first and second paragraphs, 'They played behind the garden wall,...

Analytical Essay In the poem "Ode on a Grecian Urn" by John Keats, the speaker struggles with the trials and tribulations of life compared to immortality. He then speaks to the Grecian Urn in attempt to engage with the static immobility of the sculpture. He questions the urn, but gets no response from it. The speaker ultimately has to decide the answers to his own questions, leaving the poem with a higher level of understanding about life. This was a poem from the Romantic Period and that made it easier to take a more "imaginative" standpoint, because during this period the authors focused on feelings, the imagination, and the value of what is supposed to be done to what can be done. It is important to look at the feelings of this particular poem, and it deals with the mysterious works of life in general, and reality versus a so-called "dream world." The author creates this dream world through the speaker's own imagination. The theme of this poem portrays Keats's attempt to connect with the stand still time of sculpture, the Grecian urn. It has been passed down through countless centuries to the time of the speaker's viewing, and this urn exists outside of time in the human sense—it does not age, or die, and it can grasp no such concepts. During the speaker's meditation, this creates an Smith 2 intriguing paradox for the human figures carved into the side of the urn. They are free from time, but are simultaneously frozen in time. This is illustrated by the lines "Fair youth, beneath the trees, thou canst not leave Thy song, nor ever can the trees be bare" (v. 15 &16). The people on the urn do not have to confront aging and death, but they cannot experience anything because they are frozen. Even...

Tom Sawyer- An Analytical Essay There is much debate these days on whether the boyhood masterpiece, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, should be allowed in libraries, and whether it is appropriate for modern audiences to read. Although the language that Twain uses in his novel is politically incorrect, this book is still acceptable for modern audiences to read, and this is largely because if Mark Twain did not use this language, the portrayal of late nineteenth century rural life would not have been as vivid and true as it is. In this book, racial slurs, such as nigger, and Injun', are used quite often, and the people who use the word are very nonchalant about it. Also, many people find it unacceptable for modern audiences to read this book because it contains objectionable material, such as smoking, beatings, and running away. For example, when Tom covers for Becky when she rips the schoolmasters anatomy book, Tom receives many "floggings." Inspired by the splendor of his own act, he took without an outcry the most merciless flaying that even Mr. Dobbins had ever administered…1 This quote makes the situation seem like it is an admirable thing to be beaten, and that it is all right for the schoolmaster to beat Thomas Sawyer. We must remember that Mark Twain's genre was regionalism. When he wrote, he took extreme caution to stay true to the area, culture, customs, and dialect, including vocabulary, and ideas on how children should be raised. Instead, this quote is a good learning topic for children. It is a good example of how schooling has changed, and how children were punished in the nineteenth century. Also, it provides a good comparison for audiences to use to compare and contrast on how the way children are punished in the classroom and out has developed over...

By the end of 1914 the war entered a stalemate. Both sides became mired in two main, stationary fronts—the western front, primarily in northeastern France, and the eastern front, mainly in western Russia. At the fronts, the troops fought each other from numerous parallel lines of interconnected trenches. Each side laid siege to the other's system of trenches and endeavored to break through their lines. The frustration between the world powers is reflected in Junger's personal account of the war. The Storm of Steel provides a prolific account of a soldier's life. This account gives the feeling of detachment. Something needed to survive the war experience. "It has always been my ideal in war to eliminate all feelings…" Throughout the novel Junger describes the scenery. His emotions and psychological state can be determined through the method of description. Feelings and emotions are left out. One time in the novel he discusses a sensation that stayed with him throughout the war. "It was a weird sensation to look into those dead and questioning eyes. It gave me a shudder that all through the war I never quite lost." The dead and questioning eyes seem to mirror the overall feeling of those young men participating in the war. All seemed to question what they were seeing. The horrors and atrocities appeared to be superhuman. The questions led to the feeling of being dead. Ernst never glorified war. He treated it with an inhuman fashion. At times I felt detached from the book and the experience. Then I realized that the detachment I was feeling was the detachment the soldiers were feeling. Junger stated that he "made up his mind to omit all comments from this book…" This shows that he made up his mind to omit all emotion from the war. One would...

Deemed as one of Shakespeare's most tragic plays, 'MacBeth' ventures deep within the dark side of human nature. What makes Shakespeare's plays successful is that the themes behind them are still relevant in today's society. Two directors, Polanski and Freestone, have tried to recapture the story of MacBeth through the use of film. A comparison between the two separate versions can be found in scenes such the 'killing of King Duncan' scene. While Polanski has decided to truly reflect human nature, Freestone wanted to recapture the general storyline without too much manipulation of the text, but creative visuals. This comparison reflects the director's interpretation of the play, and their view behind the theme of the play. A more political approach was used in Polanski's version of the play. This is highlighted by King Duncan's crown, which he wore in his sleep. When MacBeth first struck Duncan, a cut away of the crown falling to the ground was used. Not until the death of Duncan did the crown stop spinning. This symbolises the political decline of King Duncan, and the royal beginning for MacBeth. The impression of MacBeth's motives in Polanski's version is that he was only killing Duncan for Political reasons. Polanski has deliberately intended this to add an 'only business' attitude to the scene, maintaining realism and human nature. Freestone intentions to recreate the general storyline were clear as he uses religion as opposed to politics. As religion was a big part of society back then, he shows Lady MacBeth wearing a cross, and more importantly, gives King Duncan a God like appearance. It is extremely obvious that Polanski's film contains more gore than freestones film. When Polanski's MacBeth is striking Duncan with the dagger, the penetration of the dagger into Duncan's body is not discrete. More bloody violence is further...

Andrew Brown Politics and Government 101 Analytical essay "The Bill That Wasn't: The Failure of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2001" "Passing campaign finance reform will help restore public confidence in our government and boost our nation's disturbingly low rate of voter turnout in national elections," says Jim Jeffords, a Democrat from Vermont. Jeffords along with many other Republicans believes that some sort of campaign finance reform will help, but will the current proposal pass? To be able to be put into use and have the United States electoral process benefit, the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2001 must first be passed, and that just may prove to be a task that is too much for the bill to handle. There are many steps that the bill must take and encounter many groups. The aspects that will have a role in the final fate of the Act are Congress, party organization, interest groups, and unorganized interests. Due to irreconcilable differences in Congress, and various other problems within the parties, and with other interests, no part of the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2001 will actually become a law. Most of the members of Congress do believe that some sort of reform is needed. The actual reform is a debatable subject. Democrats feel that some things need to happen and Republicans believe in other changes. One might ask why reform is needed for campaign finance, that question is easily answered. The nation has many perceived and arguably true ideas of problems dealing with campaign finance. One such problem is corruption. The idea of vote buying, and other such corruptions are popular ideas among voters and politicians. Another perceived problem is that money runs the entire electoral process, you have to have money to win an election, and you have to have money even to run....

Jacksonian democracy was created during antebellum America. The Jackson democrats attempted to aggrandize the puissance of lower classes poor while decreasing the influence of the rich and potent. Economically, they benefited from governing during a time of paramount advances in transportation, which boosted commerce and helped the common man. Politically, they invested power into an overwhelmingly powerful executive branch. The Jacksonian democrats portrayed themselves as saviors of the common people and ruled via a powerful executive who attempted to destroy aristocracy in America. However, they were atypically wealthy, supported equality between white men only, enacted calamitous economic policies, and disregarded the capability of the federal government. Further, they did not introduce democracy in America, rather merely used it and benefited from it. During the first half of the 19th century numerous advancements expedited the growth of the United States. A market revolution occurred as a yeoman and artisan economy was replaced by cash-crop agriculture and capitalist manufacturing. Despite the prosperity, a split was emerging between the industrializing, urban north, agrarian, rural South, and the expanding West. The Jacksonians passed the Tariff of 1828, which opened opportunity for western agriculture and New England manufacturing, but was detrimental to the South. Andrew Jackson and Jacksonian democrats believed that the US bank placed too much control into the hands of a wealthy few (Doc B). Due to this fact, Jackson vetoed the bank's recharter in 1832. In attempt to benefit the lower, working classes, he placed the federal money in "pet" state banks. This attempt destabilized the national currency, decreased specie in markets, and displayed favoritism in Jacksonian policies. Like most Jacksonian economic policies it failed, and the reduction in specie spread inflation of which the Treasury Act of 1840 could not stop. Jacksonians tried to assist whites through economic policies but failed. Foreign observers...

Rafa Benitez today insisted his relationship with the Chelsea dressing room is "fantastic" - but admitted that "frustrations" were aired during a training ground set-to.
The interim Blues boss claimed the "exchange of opinions", led by skipper John Terry, in the wake of the damaging defeat by Manchester City was nothing unusual.
Benitez said: "It was a normal meeting between players and technical staff, as after every game.
"You can see it all around the world, after every game, you exchange your opinions. It was normal. Nothing else.
"We had a meeting on the pitch with my players and my technical staff. It's part of our business.
"After a defeat especially, disappointment is normal. But it was a normal meeting.
"My relationship with the players is fantastic. I don't have any problem. We are training really well. I've said before: the atmosphere is really good inside.
"They're a good group of players, working hard and keen to learn. They were disappointed like me with the defeat, but that's it."
Terry's absence from the Blues team - he has started just four of the 12 games since returning from his knee injury - has been an added source of anger among Blues fans.
Since the start of the year, Chelsea have dropped 13 points out of 24 and won just six of 15 games in all competitions.
An FA Cup exit at Middlesbrough tomorrow would increase the pressure and Benitez added: "I can understand the frustration of John Terry.
"He is an important player for us who's trying to help and push because he wants to win, but he has been injured for 16 weeks and has had problems with his knee.
"John has missed some training sessions, even had to have special treatment before Brentford. He had a specific plan we prepared for him and he couldn't manage because of the intensity of the sessions.
"So we are managing him. If he had more full training sessions, it'd be easier. He had a setback, but he's training now and could finish the training session today, so he could play."
With Gary Cahill (virus) and Cesar Azpilicueta (leg) ruled out, Terry seems certain to return to the back line at the Riverside Stadium, partnering David Luiz.
But despite dropping to fourth after Spurs' win at West Ham, Benitez was adamant Chelsea will not put all their eggs in the basket of a chase for a Champions League slot.
"Our aim is the top three, that's really important for us," he said. "But, being a top side, we have to try and win every game.
"Chelsea are the team that has played more games than any other side in Europe. It's not ideal but we have to carry on and manage the squad as well as we can."
Provisional squad: Cech, Turnbull, Hilario, Ivanovic, Ferreira, Cole, Bertrand, Luiz, Terry, Ake, Oscar, Mata, Moses, Mikel, Lampard, Ramires, Hazard, Marin, Benayoun, Torres, Ba.
