Now the difference between the Psychopath and a rational or sane person is that the Psychopath acts out of emotional morbidity. I created Shared State Theory of Communication in part because I was observing two things, the fact that I was aware of the fact that I was changing states, emotional states and the way I was in relationship with people, the world, facts, and events. While every time I would communicate that I had changed states I noticed that almost everybody else would change the way they were in relationship with me and the relationship either without knowing, or without communicating that something had changed.
Whereas I was able to be self aware, self conscious, and self controlled, these appeared to be intelligences that others did not possess in the same proportions or at all. I was constantly the victim of this unconscious changing of states, some of the time it was strategic, subversive, or passive aggressive. I was the first to get screwed. Instead of being considered a virtue, people seemed to consider being self aware a form of sorcery of which they were suspicious. Baba Muktananda had always mentioned how he studied people that were successful and people that failed. I found this interesting as well, how over and over again I was the first person to get sold down the river, not because I was wrong, or bad at my job, but because people feared my knowledge, insight, and ability. They didn't want to compete with me on a level playing field because they were afraid of how they would look in comparison to me, and they would have been right, given a chance I would have made them look like they were moving backwards in time. This is also a clue to why we as a country and a world are in the state of affairs that we are in. No money in the economy, cleptocracy in the banks and stockmarket, propaganda in the media, puppets in the government.
Knowing that I was in an emotionally morbid state I wouldn't make decisions or act. Psychopaths on the other hand only act on their issues, and out of emotionally morbid states. They don't take responsibility for their issues or their emotions, as far as they are concerned, everybody else is responsible for their emotions and their emotions are responsible for their behavior. So a psychopath will throw an histrionic fit, and it is your fault, because you attacked them by existing and them being aware of your existence.
Histrionic psychopaths keep their pain fresh, like an open wound, and they use it as a source of power, they are consciously looking for things to get offended by and they think they win be getting offended. Then when they have an opportunity they loose their venom on somebody that they are projecting their damage onto.
We now know that Anger comes from feelings of frustration, according to my SSTOC people are always communicating whatever state they are in, even if they are concealing that state, they are probably still leaking that state. A person that feels thwarted will communicate thwartedness, unjustly thwarting others that don't deserve it. In an environment in which people are not educated knowing psychology, America, and not encouraged to be mentally healthy, what we see now is a creeping normalcy. People are acquisitively mimetic, and they copy behaviors they see. Monkey see monkey do, ad nauseum. I refer to it as the tragedy of the commons in regard to strategic behavior.
The problem with modern psychology is that it is normative, which means that it compares the individual to the normal person in society which presupposes that the society itself isn't batshit insane. Which as it happens right now, is the case. This also means that people that are quite rational will be singled out, and considered insane, because the crazy society has to be protected from the sane individuals that every day see the decay of the form of the good.
As part of my theory of rational relationship, a person should communicate in a timely manner if their behavior has been modified from what is rational or expected or necessary so that the other person can respond or change their mind or plan. This maximizes the value in a rational relationship. If you don't communicate correctly, you do not think correctly and you do not act correctly which means the end result will be bad. All force is a subtle form of rape.
Some of you know my theory on how philosophy and religion came to the west from India through Greece and for those of you this word will be meaningful.
auspicious (adj.) 1590s, "of good omen" (implied in auspiciously), from Latin auspicium "divination by observing the flight of birds," from auspex (genitive auspicis) + -ous. Related:Auspiciously; auspiciousness.
From auspice + -ious, from Latin auspicium ("augury"), from Latin auspex ("augur"), possibly via French.
- Of good omen; indicating future success.
- Conducive to success.
- This is an auspicious day.
- Marked by success; prosperous.
Ask yourself these questions: What stimulated my need recognition? What are my intentions? What is my motivation? What is my desire? What is my end game? What is my desired result?
Things end as they begin, and nothing ends well that is motivated by negative emotions.

text: I am looking at and researching a new CNC router. As a journeyman mold maker I know the components of what I use at work, a Mikino VMC. Which like most big mills runs on servo drives and ball screws. When I started researching CNC routers I became aware of the other choices available. First the stepper motors that can replace the servo's and 2nd the rack transmission systems that are used instead of the ballscrews. I am looking for any knowledge and advice about these 2 subjects. So far I think I would rather go with the stepper motors. They seem to be very close in accuracy and require less maintenance. So the cost of upgrading to servos doesn't seem worth it. Am I missing anything major on this topic? I am certain I want to go with ballscrew and square guide rails on the Z axis and was fairly certain I would go with that same setup on the XandY axis. Then I read in a few places that when going with a large router spindle (larger then 2.2KW) that a rack and gear system is required/strongly suggested on the XandY travel. How true is this? How much loss of accuracy is there by not using the ballscrew? Is the extra power worth the loss of accuracy? Thank you to anyone who can give me any advice on these topics. Please don't hesitate to add in any other information you feel is critical when choosing a CNC router.

Canterbury Woods Retirement Community
Retirement Community selects ADVIDIA cameras and Video Insight VMS system to provide coverage across its 62-acre facility
Nestled in the heart of Williamsville, NY, just outside of Buffalo, there's a private and peaceful retirement community situated on 62 picturesque acres called Canterbury Woods. The Continuing Care Retirement Community boasts a gorgeous landscape with nature trails that wind through the ample grounds of perfectly manicured gardens and around the peaceful pond for its retired residents and their visiting family members. On its grounds, Canterbury Woods has 203 apartments and 40 independent-living patio homes along with several accommodations such as a fitness center with an indoor pool and spa, wellness center and health clinic, game and recreation rooms, a library and more.
One of the top priorities for Canterbury Woods property management is to maintain the safety and security of their residents and visitors not only in their main facility, but throughout the grounds. With several acres to survey, Canterbury Woods needed to invest in new hardware and upgrade the current analog cameras and security system.
- Not enough cameras to cover entire facility
- Unreliable analog video
- Significant investment required to upgrade to an enterprise video management system
Property management could not properly maintain awareness across the expansive grounds with only 16 cameras at building entrances. To ensure the safety of the residents and staff members, Canterbury Woods needed to expand its infrastructure and update the current analog system to IP, as well as replace legacy DVRs with an enterprise video management system that could be centralized. In addition to a centralized deployment, the facility director wanted to leverage mobile devices and enable security personnel and senior officials to cover a larger area of the facility and respond to incidents faster.
- LINSTAR Security System Integrator
- ADVIDIA Cameras and Encoders
- Video Insight Video Management System (VMS)
- Affordable IP Cameras with VMS Included
- Quick to setup and deploy
- Feature–rich VMS
- Minimal Training
- iOS/Android Mobile App & Web Client
- (16) analog cameras
- (76) ADVIDIA A-44-IR dome cameras
- (19) ADVIDIA A-34 dome cameras
- (11) ADVIDIA B-5360 360-degree dome cameras
- (8) ADVIDIA A-54-OD ADVIDIA pole-mounted wireless cameras with UPS battery back-up
- (4 )12TB NVR servers
- (1) 16TB NVR server
"Providing coverage to such a large community was no easy task. We knew that the success of this project depended on two key components:
- Finding a local integrator that would help us identify problem areas and implement an efficient plan, handle installation, and provide recommendations.
- Selecting a video management solution that was easy-to-manage, scalable and cost-effective," said David O'Brien, Facilities Director for Canterbury Woods.
LINSTAR security integrator recommended Video Insight and ADVIDIA cameras. They would handle the installation as well as the support and maintenance of Canterbury Woods' new security system.
For years LINSTAR has successfully completed projects in New York state and surrounding areas and has used Video Insight to provide an end-to-end enterprise solution to its clients.
"We recommended Video Insight and ADVIDIA because it met all the requirements of the project. Combining ADVIDIA cameras and Video Insight provided Canterbury Woods with an enterprise security system that was cost effective, easy-to-use, and scalable," said Molly Schrock, LINSTAR Senior Account Manager.
"We choose ADVIDIA security cameras because it represented a significant savings to Canterbury Woods. Going with ADVIDIA cameras meant that the customer did not need to worry about the purchase of VMS licenses for the new IP cameras, but could take advantage of the enterprise features that SOLUTION provided (video wall, mobile apps for Apple/Android, and health monitor). In addition to the cameras, ADVIDIA encoders provided similar value and an easy path to connect the existing analog camera to a network in order to be managed by the Video Insight VMS," said Schrock.
Canterbury Woods has made an aggressive commitment and effort to ensure video coverage across its entire facility by providing over 100 additional security cameras and upgrading to Video Insight enterprise video management system. The next phase of the Canterbury Woods Community project will include 60+ ADVIDIA cameras increasing the coverage to over 170 cameras.

Identification of visual stress which causes reading problems
Introducing Lucid ViSS
What is visual stress?
Visual stress (sometimes called 'Meares-Irlen Syndrome' or 'Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome') is the experience of unpleasant visual symptoms when reading, especially for prolonged periods. Symptoms include illusions of shape, movement and colour in the text, distortions of the print, loss of print clarity, and general visual irritation. Visual stress can also cause sore eyes, headaches, frequent loss of place when reading, and impaired comprehension. Research has shown that 15 – 20% of people suffer visual stress to some extent, and they also tend to be hypersensitive to fluorescent lighting and flicker on computer monitors. Visual stress is not the same as dyslexia. Some people with dyslexia may suffer from visual stress and some may not. But dyslexia does seem to make the symptoms of visual stress much worse so it is especially important that those with diagnosed dyslexia are screened for visual stress.
Speedy and easy to use
Easy but comprehensive reporting
The ViSS reports module shows the extent to which the person's performance was disrupted by visually stressful stimuli. A graphical scale of susceptibility to visual stress – from 'low' to 'extremely high' – makes it easy to interpret the results. A full statistical analysis is also shown. The implications of the different categories are explained in the Administrator's Manual that accompanies the program, which also gives advice on the next steps to take. Comments may be included on the print-out of results, thus providing a complete record of the screening on one convenient A4 page. Professionals who require a more detailed breakdown of results will not be disappointed. A full individual item analysis can be accessed, making ViSS a very suitable tool for research.

Washington, DC - Today, Director John Berry of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management and U.S. Chief Performance Officer Jeffrey Zients announced a major overhaul of the Federal hiring process, detailing crucial reforms ordered by President Obama. Speaking at OPM headquarters alongside Department of Labor Secretary Hilda Solis and Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan, Berry detailed President Obama's initiative to bring a 21st Century approach to the Federal hiring system. The announcement was made before an audience including high-ranking officials from the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, and Veterans Affairs, as well as Federal employees and private sector human resource experts. This announcement came shortly after President Obama issued a memorandum to Federal agencies directing them to overhaul their hiring procedures within 180 days.
"Federal workers fill crucial roles that defend Americans from terrorism, infectious diseases, food-borne pathogens, forest fires and countless other threats. We can't afford delays in filling these jobs, nor can we rely on a system that causes qualified candidates to give up in frustration. President Obama and I believe that we must cut the red tape clogging the Federal hiring process in order to bring aboard outstanding applicants quickly," OPM Director John Berry said at the announcement event. "President Obama has undertaken a series of reforms today that aren't so much steps, as leaps forward. I understand the frustration of every applicant who previously has had to wade through the arcane Federal hiring process. If qualified applicants want to serve our country through the Federal service, then our application process should facilitate that. These reforms are concrete, broad, and will help us do just that. They honor core merit system principles and the sacrifice of the men and women serving our country by preserving their veteran's preference. And, these reforms will save the American taxpayer money and free up scarce resources that will allow Federal agencies to better serve our nation."
"The best talent doesn't wait around for 140 days - they find another job," said Chief Performance Officer Jeff Zients. "We need to streamline our hiring process to make it more competitive and candidate-friendly. Across twenty years in the private sector, I've seen that the best performing organizations focus on people as their most important tool for improving performance. It is time for the federal government to start doing the same."
"These steps taken by President Obama align the Federal workforce with the best practices of the private sector in terms of recruiting and hiring talent," said Department of Labor Secretary Hilda Solis. "These reforms are straightforward and simplify the process for job applicants seeking to serve their country."
"We should be encouraging the best candidates to enter Federal service, rather than dissuading them through an outdated, lengthy process that leaves both applicants and hiring managers frustrated," said Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan. "The President's reforms give me the tools I need to reduce the red tape in our Department. The ability to process and assess applicants more efficiently saves the American taxpayer money."
At the announcement event, Director Berry outlined steps that President Obama has taken to reform the Federal hiring and recruitment process.
In his Memorandum, President Obama directed Federal agencies to:
Additionally, the President directed OPM to:
The U.S. Office of Personnel Management is also launching a web site that will continue to guide Federal agencies and hiring managers through this change at: http://www.opm.gov/hiringreform/ .
For complete details on hiring reform - including additional measures taken by President Obama and the Office of Personnel Management, a Video News Release and webcast of the entire press conference, please visit http://www.opm.gov/.
OPM leads and serves the Federal Government in enterprise human resources management by delivering policies and services to achieve a trusted, effective civilian workforce. By Empowering Excellence in Government through Great People, we provide leadership and support to U.S. agencies on issues including human resources policy and oversight, background investigations, federal employee benefits, retirement services, guidance on labor-management relations, and programs to improve workforce performance.

Autumn Pastels (part 1)
I love the media of pastel – for the rich color and soft shapes that can be depicted. Autumn is a great time to be inspired by the natural landscape, to find images particularly suited to pastels:
Those people familiar with my work probably correctly guessed that the images above are not pastel works but rather are abstract photos that I took and created, with the intent of using them as reference images for future pastel paintings.
Night Train (a Series)
This painting series was a bit unique for me. It had a common theme in terms of the subject matter – all of the images were drawn from what I saw (and captured with photos) during the night while on a train between Edmonton and Vancouver in November of 2007. What was unique for me was the use of oil pastel on a number of the works, and oil paint on a couple of larger ones.
Progress Report – a Street Scene in pastel
On August 14th I got back to work on my recent large pastel piece. By the end of the session this is how it looked:
At this stage I used some pan pastel on the red regions. I liked the intensity and warmth of the Permanent Red. It was my first time trying these pan pastels and I like them but it was a little different using the sponge applicator to apply the pigment. It will take awhile before I am comfortable with working with these but I saw no reason that I won't be able to use them and various stick pastels together on one piece.
I was torn (as I often seem to be on my work), with how abstract to make the piece. I initially was inspired to do this piece by a photo I had created that eliminated most of the detail and left just a pattern of color regions. However as I worked on this piece on Saturday I found myself adding little bits of detail to make things more recognizable. So, although I had signed this piece and called it done, upon further reflection I've decided that I want to do a bit more work on it (still undecided on which way on the abstraction continuum I will go).
On the 14th, I also got most of the design laid out on a larger canvas for an oil painting. I have chosen to use a fairly large canvas (24 by 30 inches ; 61×81 cm). I had covered the canvas with a light orangy-red tone and then sketched in my design with charcoal. I also shade in regions of the canvas to get a rudimentary value map.
Pastel Work-In-Progress (part 2)
My second session on this street scene in pastel has involved blending in the previously applied pastel to hide all of the white spots in my panel. I have done this using by fingertips which has been okay on the relatively smooth surface of these panels. On a sanded paper, such as Wallis, my fingers would be raw. This part of the process was fun, like finger painting (but not too messy).
The blending process has dulled the colors and softened all of the edges. My next step will be to take a second look at the colors and make adjustments in value and temperature. My final step will be to go back in and re-establish any harder edges and highlights that I want.
Pastel Work-in-Progress (Street Scene
Today I've started a large (24×28 in, 61 x71 cm) pastel painting of a street scene in my neighborhood. I was inspired by an iPhone photo I had taken and pushed the color saturation. I am very excited by the start. My challenge will be to maintain the freshness as I continue working in it.
iPhoneography Inspired Abstract Paintings (Exploration – part 3)
Here is the third piece that I worked through to explore the process of using my abstracted iPhone images as references for pastel paintings.
I considered this exploration, proof of concept to be successful enough that I am going to proceed to develop a series based on this theme and approach. I do hope and expect that my pastel technique will improve as I do more of these pieces.
I see now that the pastel pieces in these posts look considerably more washed out than they are in real life. I would say they are in fact closer to the enhanced photos than they are to the original photos.
I would certainly appreciate any feedback you have on these pieces
iPhoneography Inspired Abstract Paintings (Exploration – part 2)
Here is another example, where I take an iPhone photo, abstract it and then use it as the basis for an abstract pastel painting:
iPhoneography Inspired Abstract Paintings (Exploration – part 1)
Today (2010 August 2) I am starting a new series of abstract pastel paintings based on images I created with my iPhone. By taking photos of some very simple subjects and then using the apps (particularly Photo Shop Mobile) to adjust the exposure, contrast, saturation as well as some cropping and rotating I have come up with some images that really appealed to me. I wanted to take these larger but I just don't think the resolution of the camera would allow for an enlargement of reasonable quality. I therefore have begun to explore the idea of using the photos as starting points for some colorful abstract paintings and I'm thinking pastels will give me the color saturation most similar to what appeals to me in the processed photos.
I'm sharing here my first experiments. I have taken three photos and created little (30 by 30 cm, or 1 foot square) works on hardboard prepared with gesso and Golden Acrylic Ground for Pastels. My vision is to produce the series at a size of 60 by 60 cm and maybe even try a few at double those dimensions.
For each of these works I will show the original unprocessed iPhone photo, then the processed photo and finally the pastel work. My intent is not to make an exact copy of the photo image but to capture the essence of it
As it has been a while since I've worked with pastels I am not feeling as comfortable with the media as I would like to be but I'm sure I will improve as I work on this series.

Your story in this week's issue, "Dido's Lament," involves a chance encounter between two people who were once married but haven't seen each other in years. As always, you're so good at capturing character through small cultural signifiers—the fact that Lynette wears a bright-pink coat from a second-hand shop and is embarrassed by a department-store shopping bag, for instance. How much do you think can be conveyed through this kind of detail?
Almost everything. I suppose that's the whole premise of a certain kind of fiction, really, of realist fiction—that we can get at the general through the particular. It's the human skill we deploy—like Sherlock Holmes!—every time we meet someone: reading all sorts of detail, clothes and looks and expression and response, even without being wholly aware that we're doing it. In ordinary human contact, we construct from those particulars the story of a life—necessarily incomplete, but full of rich suggestion. People are always interpreting one another. We never get our readings completely right (and, of course, that's another element in this story, the inability of these two to read each other fully). But without that work of guessing and interpretation we would be wholly alone; we couldn't begin to know one another. It would be dreadful to be entirely unreadable. (No one knows this better than a writer.)
This is where writing is a bit like anthropology, I suppose—using all the cultural layering of detail and nuance and perception to construct a world of significance. When I'm writing a story, its world is thin, unsatisfactory, untrue, until I start to find my way to those details, those "small cultural signifiers." As these accumulate on the page, the life in the piece thickens, the details breed, and the story begins to stir.
Lynette and Toby seem so fundamentally different that it's difficult to imagine a time when they "belonged to each other." What was it that drew them together?
It's easy to imagine what drew him to her. She's beautiful, talented, rare. She must have seemed unattainable to shy Toby—and, ultimately, she was unattainable. I hope I've made that likelihood easy to imagine, in the story. I've given Lynette a lot of memories: how he used to watch her eyes to see what she thought of everything. No doubt her working-class and mixed-race background, her bad brothers, were exotic and romantic for him, too. Perhaps it's harder to imagine the other way? But think what Toby might have had for a young Lynette, with her precarious confidence, the audacity of her bet on herself and her talent. He'd have seemed adept in that world of élite culture she aspired to. Also, he'd have offered his enormous belief in her, his devotion to her. She wanted to be taken care of—and she hated being taken care of. That's a fairly familiar contradiction for women. All these years later, she still half-yearns for the security and solidity that now seem to be embodied in his comfortable home, his steadiness, his kindness, that warm stove. But she also knows, or believes she knows (in the last line of the story), that she needs to be free of being cared for, that it only exasperates and constrains her.
You mention in passing that Lynette's grandfather was from Sierra Leone. Her father was a bus driver and her mother a nurse, while Toby's parents were bohemian artists who chose to live in a dilapidated farmhouse. Should the characters' backgrounds tell us something about the distinctions between them?
Toby would have belonged in a world that valued the kind of art Lynette wanted to make, as a singer of baroque opera. No doubt his family home in the country was a new world to her when she first went there. No doubt his artist-parents were a revelation. Just as Lynette's family would have been a revelation to Toby. It's that anthropology thing again—reading each other's signs. They would both have fallen in love with what they didn't recognize, the mystery of the other's otherness. My hunch is that Lynette fell in love with Toby's whole family, and mistook that at first for being in love with him. (Alice Munro writes wonderfully, over and over, about girls doing exactly that.)
For most of the story we experience events through Lynette's eyes. At almost the very end, you briefly switch to Toby's perspective, and we suddenly see things quite differently. Did you know from the start that you'd make that leap?
I knew I was going to have this switch of perspectives from the very beginning—it's in my earliest notes for the story. It's one of the things I can't usually resist doing in writing, taking advantage of fiction's capacity to do what in reality we can't do, which is be inside two minds at once—or more than two. It's such a rich resource of irony and complication, opening up the story, making it social. It isn't unreal, to be able to do this. In reality, in any scene between people, there are at least two consciousnesses at play, obviously. But each of us is stuck inside one of them. In fiction, the writer is making everything up—there's no reason not to allow yourself to slip in and out of any of the characters who seem available to imagination, if you want to. Chekhov does it even within the same paragraph sometimes in his stories.
The story without Toby's view would have felt incomplete to me somehow, like one hand clapping. We're so hungry to know whether he is as safe now, as recovered from the wound of their parting, as he appears. Lynette is trying to guess; we're allowed to know. Fiction can offer a complete reading: that's part of its mystery. Whereas in life we're always struggling to transcend what's partial.
There's an element of symmetry, too. It would have been unbalanced, somehow, for us to have felt the wound in Lynette and not known that it was still throbbing there in Toby, too, buried deep, the way he buries that telltale carrier bag, the trace she leaves behind. The story is all about the wound of this divorce—even if in the end the divorce is also conceded to have been inevitable, necessary. The painful experience can't simply be eradicated, even if they've both recovered, in their daily lives. They will forget this evening's encounter, too; they will carry on and be O.K. Lynette's sprained ankle will heal. Nonetheless, the wound of the divorce is real.
I think that it's possible sometimes, or for some people, to leave damage behind, to forget it, shuck it off. This must depend, hugely, on the sensibility of the individuals. Other sensibilities, with more resilience and capacity for forgetting, might not have been imprinted with the same pain that both my characters seem to be marked by here. But I'm interested in them precisely because that pain has stayed with them.
For a lot of the evening—and most of their marriage—these two have experienced an uneven distribution of power and control. That tension drives them, and the story. Do you, as the author, feel more sympathy for one than the other? Is one happier than the other?
That's a difficult question to answer. I don't think I do feel more sympathy for one than the other. It's obvious that Toby is nicer. But then, Lynette can't help being what she is, she can't help seeing what she sees, she can't put her exasperation and her imperiousness away at will, or stop feeling them. She can't put away her awareness of that imbalance of power between them. Actually, an imbalance of power in a relationship may deliver more satisfaction for the powerless one than for the power-holder. At least for as long as he was married to Lynette, Toby felt he knew what his life was for. Whereas it wasn't really good for Lynette, was it, to see Toby constantly searching her face to find out what she liked, what she thought? (A century's worth of fiction has been dedicated to sympathizing with women in their impulse to be free of that kind of scrupulous attentiveness, that smothering devotion.)
But, in a way, what a shame that they couldn't make it work. In another life, they might have. I didn't mean the reader to feel that the marriage was impossible. The story doesn't come down on the side of the divorce, or against it. It happened, that's all.
One of the questions that your portrait of Lynette raises is whether clinging to the idea of one's freedom or one's anti-materialistic artistic integrity into one's late thirties is valid—or whether it becomes self-indulgent. What do you make of Lynette's decisions in life? Were they worth what they've cost her?
I almost don't know how to answer that. It's the impossible question, isn't it? And partly it's sheer bad luck—the bad luck that her voice wasn't a little bit better, that her career hasn't taken off. If Lynette had become a significant singer, with a career around the world, we probably wouldn't ask the same question about the sacrifices. I've always been very moved by that agonizing possibility, that you might dedicate yourself to an ideal of art, and imaginatively make it the center of all value in your life—and then turn out not to be good enough. I'm so sympathetic to that sick dismay Lynette feels when Toby asks about her music, and her impulse to conceal her failure from him—although she's not deceiving herself one iota. There's an awful flat self-knowledge in her, a cruel estimate of her own moderate talent.
Perhaps it's that flatness in her own estimate, that flatness of her inner language, dismissing her own work, that makes me think she isn't self-indulgent. Also, nobody else is suffering for her lack of stability and prosperity. There's no man being asked to foot the bill, no children to suffer from her inattention or her selfishness.
But how wonderful it must be to sing Dido's lament. To be good enough to do that. Perhaps that alone is worth anything. Perhaps she needed to be "free"—whatever freedom is—in order to be able to do just that. She may have chosen music, at first, as her way of becoming different, of appropriating cultural capital, leaving the world of her family behind. But no doubt the music itself now has a fundamental role in her life. She loves it. It feeds her, feeds the way she understands everything. So she hums Dido's exquisite lament to herself, and it is oddly able to express what she feels—even though there's a gap of centuries between the lament and her own losses, and a revolution in women's freedom not to love, not to be defined by being loved. She isn't in Dido's classic situation, quite the opposite—and yet Dido's lament still fits. That's such an interesting truth.
Do Lynette and Toby have any doppelgängers in real life?
No, they don't. I don't know where they came from. I think the story began because I was thinking about divorce, a particular real-life divorce in the family—asking the unfathomable question "Is it worth it?" How can you accurately calculate the sum of happiness, the cost of leaving or of staying together? (In some cases, of course, the question isn't at all unfathomable—a marriage can be rotten.) I sometimes think of divorce less as a deliberate choice than as an accident that happens. But that's dangerous thinking. You can end up thinking that marriage, too, is an accident that happens.

It is with this backdrop, that we can proceed with our story about the F.C.C.C.
J.P. Morgan, who along with the Rockefellers were Rothschild agents27 to carrry out the Rothschilds' designs, put up money to bring together Christians in an ecumenical unity. It was this ecumenical movement that C.T. Russell advertised with praises in his WT Magazine, yet never joined.28
J.P. Morgan was trying to give a little nudge to the activities of the Masons, who through the Unitarian and Universalist churches had been trying to create an ecumenical movement.29
The Unitarian church has had strong Masonic (and to a lesser degree Skull and Bones Order) leadership and money. It was a radical departure from orthodox Christianity, deriving its religious philosophy from the German Idealism of the Mason Kant, of Hegel, and English Romanticism. It was transcendental and pantheistic. Transcendentalism helped create the abolition movement, socialism, and eventually the social gospel.
Their idea was to recreate the sucess of the Masonic Lodge on a much greater scale. Benevolence was the key. The sucess of Masonry to bring divergent religious elements together and to calm the Christian scruples was through Benevolence. It was seen as a tried and tested method to mold the Christian elements into a One-World-Religion. Masons, Socialists, and Unitarians (who were possibly also Masons) were quietly placed into the leadership of the Christian ecumenical councils where they proceeded to slowlv and skillfully redefine the Christian gospel. The Christian gospel came to be defined as a social gospel based on the goodness of man without mention of Christ's act of atonement and mankind's sin. While thinking they were rediscovering a lost Christian teaching—benevolence, the major denominations were slowly being recreated into Masonic institutions. Institutions that engaged in benevolence, believed in Magic, and were tolerant of everything.
The Federal Council of Christ, the World Council of Churches, and the National Council of Churches have given religious sanctum to their programs by carefully couching their programs with veiled language that sounds Christian to the naive. They have used every trick in the book.
Transcendentalism working on the New England mind resulted in the Presbyterian split between the Old and New Schools in 1837. A great retreat from Calvinism toward Arminian theology took place in all denominations, especially in New England's Congregationalism. Instead of talking about God's election of man, the Christians began emphasing only man's election of God.
In discussing the origins of the F.C.C.C., C. Gregg Singer states, "Involving :he denial of man's total depravity, the departure from Calvinism brought with it an optimistic view of human nature. This optimism promoted not only the belief that man must and can cooperate with God in the achievement of his eternal redemption, but also its corollary that man in the same manner can achieve a millenial existence on earth. This fondness for millennialism brought with it an addiction to reform, which swept the nation in the three decades before 1860. Arminians, Unitarians, and devotees of the cults joined hands in the quest for Utopia under the banners of millennialism."30
The Christians were now adopting two ideas of Masonry—the revolution back to a Golden Age found in Eastern Mythology and the idea of using benevolence to hide their lack of interest in faith in the personal God of the Bible.
Prior to the Confederate State's of America's defeat, the Unitarians and their International Banker friends had several plans for the South.(See chap. 2.4) The defeat of the South opened up several opportunities. The congressional Plan of Reconstruction of the South was to be precurser of what they intended later for the whole U.S.31 Masons in the South with connections to the big Bankers advised Southernors that they needed the big Financiers and their technology.32 The International Bankers bought up land in the South from destitute Southerners.33 Religious reformers and experimentors went to work.34 In much of this they seem to have failed.35 The contested election of 1876 broke the strength of the radicals, and they abandoned the conservative backward South to try their experiments and crusades in the North.36
The Masonic elements found a new tool to break conservative Christianity, Darwinism. Although Darwin was not a Mason, his grandfather who was influential in his life and his close friends were.37 And it was Masons that initially promoted the idea of Darwinism. At last here was a "scientific" justification to support the Hindu belief in evolution. Some transcendentalists, who had looked to Eastern religious thought, had already adopted evolution, before Darwin. But it had been a mystical notion, now evolution had the blessings of the scientific community. Darwin's ideas weren't issued forth into a vacuum like a microbe suspended in outer space, but rather into a culture medium full of nutrients to promote it. Darwinism multiplied like bacteria.
Devote Christians responded by retreating to dogmatism in the Bible, rather than scientific investigation. They might have realized God gave them a brain for a reason. There is nothing wrong in using science to testify to the validity of the scriptures. Christians seem to rationalize their lazy mental attitudes and willingness to scientifically investigate by saying that this would be showing a lack of faith in the Scriptures. On the contrary, it shows one believes the facts will vindicate scriptures. It took the Christian community, years to catch up to the Evolution Theory. And they still haven't taken the initiative away from the Evolutionists (due to the unequalities of the playing field.) Now, science has itself discarded what Darwin postulated, and the modern evolutionary theory is nothing like its predesesor. Further, Creation Scientists can now out-debate the Evolutionists with hard data.38 Men like Stephen Hawkings have shaken the scientific community.39 The evolutionists are saved now by the Power which controls the vast media, and the public's lack of critical thinking.
Union Seminary in New York which was controlled by the Order produced a Dr. Charles A. Briggs who stated very clearly that the Christian adherence to elaborate creeds such as the Westminster Confession and the Lutheran Augsburg Confession were sinful because they seperated Christians.40 Advocates of the social gospel and theological liberals followed up Briggs suggestions.
An examination of early Christian ecumenical groups of an evangelical nature shows the hand of Masonry quietly at work. The Young Men's Christian Association (1851)41 has been basically a Masonic run operation. Early attempts at unity for social reform, such as the Women's Christian Temperance Union (1874) and the Anti-Saloon League(1893) had leadership that was connected to various tenticles of the World Power.42 According to Elias B. Sanford, who was the honorary Sec. of the FCCC from its beginning, these types of preliminary groups were used as a base. Sanford describes in his book Origin and History of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America the five steps they initiated to work these various preliminary unity groups into the FCCC. These were:
1. A series of conferences looking to the formation of local and state federations. A great deal of effort was spent to give the impression that this work was the result of local and popular pressure for a new type of ecclessiastical cooperation.
2. A conference which met in Philadelphia early in 1901 for the purpose of creating a FCCC.
3. A second annual conference which met in Washington, D.C. which took the fourth step which was to create a committee on correspondence.
4. This committee with Dr. Sanford as its Secretary travelled extensively all over the nation to seminaries and local federations drumming up support for step 5.
5. The Inter-Church Conference on Federation in New York in late 1905. This conference proposed the formation of a federal council to meet in 1908. The groundwork to create a constitution called the Plan of Federation was also laid.
Their 5 step plan was a well thought out, systematic formula.
When the Federal Council of Churches was officially launched the criteria for a group to be accepted was merely that it receive a two-thirds vote of acceptance. There were no creedal stipulations. The seeds to destroy the evangelical Christianity of its constituency had been planted from the start.
Methodist Episcopal Bishop E.R. Hendrix (who this author has reason to suspect was a Mason) was made the FCCC's first president. A Committee on the Church and Modern Industry came up slyly with what became known as the Social Creed for the FCCC. It wasn't until much later that the churches discovered that the Social Creed (with 9 articles) was originally written for the Methodist Federation for Social Service.43 Without realizing it, the 33 denominations that had joined were being quietly led down the Social gospel path, a path of salvation based on socialistic optimism in the nature of man. A salvation not from sin, but from sin's effects. Because the surface problems were played with, the root problems continued unabated.
In the early years, the FCCC spoke loud rhetoric in favor of pacifism, but when war broke out, it urged its denominations to fight a holy war to end all wars.44 The Mennonite General Conference (the only Anabaptist group involved with the FCCC) withdrew in 1917 over this hypocracy.
In the early years, the FCCC made statements that the new social order was the hope of humanity. They called this new social order what Christ called the Kingdom of God. "We conceive it to be the duty of the Church to point out wherein human life, as it is presently organized, falls far short of this ideal and fails to apply these principles and what changes need to be made."45
The Southern Presbyterian church protested the FCCC's theology in the early years. It wasn't interested in building a socialist Utopia. But it didn't leave.
How close were the original FCCC leaders to the One-World-Power? Even from the beginning of the FCCC in 1908, some of the FCCC leaders were talking about the creation of a League of Nations. Understand that the League of Nations was one of the reasons why the Power wanted W.W. I. That these men were promoting the idea of a League of Nations long before W.W. I ought to raise eyebrows. They threw their ecclesiastic support behind Wilson's proposal for a League of Nations. The failure of the United States Congress to allow the U.S. to join the League shows that even the Power can miscalculate. It seems that every step of the way, the FCCC was the erand boy for the Power bringing us their socialistic New World Order.
Some denominational leaders in order to quiet opposition from their conservative members claimed that they were having a moderating effect on the FCCC. However, there is no evidence to show that the FCCC leaders paid any serious attention to its critics. Why should it? It had a secret agenda and secret backers that could produce serious support. Bear in mind, there were even FCCCer's writing books like Christian Principles Essential to a New World Order by W.H.P. Faunce in 1919.
Evangelicals were setting aside their beliefs in conversion and regeneration, for the Social program of the FCCC. In return, the FCCC gave them rhetoric, like this Federal Council Bulletin
"Within the Federal Council there is full freedom for those who are now joined in common tasks to hold varying views as to the ultimate form in which the spirit of Christian unity may express itself. Some there are whose eyes are fixed upon the coming of a complete organic union in which the many groups while preserving their own distinct methods of worship and work and their own special emphasis and point of view shall be organized in a single comprehensive church. Others simply want friendly cooperation. Both groups can meet in hearty accord in the Federal Council."46 COMMENTS
My comments on this are as follows. For Christians there is but one freedom, the freedom to do what is right. There is no freedom in being unequally yoked with those who don't want to do what is right. Today, good men are afraid to be good. Many Christians today are afraid to stand up for what is right. Toleration has been drummed into their heads. But what is tolerated is sin. People today do not realize that the people who are preaching liberation and freedom, are the ones who enslave men to drugs, bad habits, hatreds, and other evils. The socialist New Order that the FCCC leaders talked about wasn't "full freedom." When men don't want to confront the issue of sin, and the FCCC didn't, then in the long run they will settle for slavery to sin. FCCC'S THEOLOGICAL ORIGINS
Singer states, "There can be no doubt that the theology of the Council was liberal, with Unitarianism and higher criticism its chief characteristics. Its leadership was hostile to evangelical Christianity..."47
Chapter 2.3 presented how Unitarianism was essentially a Masonic religion with ties to the Order (One possible llluminati Power group.) FCCC LEADERSHIP
Who was this leadership which was hostile to evangelical Christianity?
Consider some of the following— (these Masonic memberships are from reliable sources such as the Masonic reference 10.000 Famous Freemasons): S. Parkes Cadman- Freemason, served as the President of the FCCC, and also, though he was a socialist and unevangelical, was put on the FCCC's radio broadcast as their evangelistic program during the early years.
Dr. Earnest H. Cherrington-Freemason, served as Vice Pres. of the FCCC
Henry St. George Tucker-Freemason, Pres. of the FCCC during the 40s. He emphasied in the Federal Council Bulletins that "Doubt is cast on the sincerity of Christians" because of the racial problems of America. Did he ever preach any thing about the sincerity of the Masonic Lodge being in question due to their racism? Never to my knowledge. The racial issue and the civil rights movement that the FCCC started was another front for the FCCC to distract and manipulate Christians with. Because of the issue the FCCC built a legal staff for the first time.
Bishop G. Bromley Oxnam- (33 Freemason, and a One-World-Stater), President of the American FCCC and later President of the WCC.
Ivan Lee Holt-(33 Freemason), another President of the FCCC.
Masons played secondary roles also such as: Joseph C. Hazen (32 )-commentator of FCCC Levi Gilbert- delegate to the FCCC
When the Mason Pres. Roosevelt needed support to push his New Deal (New Order) legislation through to move this nation away from our traditional freedom toward their socialist New Order, guess who was there to give him full support? The FCCC radically promoted the New Deal legislation of Roosevelt.48 Although technically the FCCC didn't speak for all the denominations that were joined to it, it pretended to, while simultaneously denying to its constituency that it was actually doing what it did.
At this time, people began to be concerned that the FCCC was working for the communists. There were very few people aware then that this whole thing was much greater.
The FCCC advocated "collectism" and "economic reconstruction," during the 1930s, in items like their 1937 report on The Church and the Social Order.
Subsequently, the FcCc published in their Biennial Report, 1943, p. 18 such verbage, " The chief contribution of the Church, especially of the clergy and all who have a teaching function within the Church, is to keep alive the vision in men's minds of the true order of life as God intended it to be, an order in which the whole process of production has as it primary purpose the meeting of human needs instead of having the meeting of those needs the by-product of the pursuit of profit..an order in which the resources of the earth, land and water are controlled for the benefit of the total community with whatever forms of ownership in each case are conducive to such control..." (Bold added)
John Foster Dulles, a active participant of the New World Order,48a briefed the FCCC on the United Nations charter after the 1945 San Francisco Conf.49 and the FCCC adopted a resolution in support of it. "The churches of Christ in America have long held that the nations can better serve God's purpose for the world as they are brought into organic relationship with one another for the commonwealth."50 (THEY HAVE?) They soon gave their total support for UNESCO as an indispensable step. The prime movers in the creation and leadership of UNESCO were Masons. The constitution of UNESCO was written by S&B Order member Achibald MacLeisch. UNESCO immediately went into action to promote Hinduism and the New Age throughout the World.51 It also became another conduit for instructions to religious leaders throughout the world from a secret Masonic Council of 13.52 The list of non-governmental organizations that were in a consultive and associated relationship to UNESCO (Report of the Director-General, 1991 for the time period 1988-1989) shows the following organizations both associated with and advising UNESCO, the International Council of B'nai B'rith, Ecumenical Institute for the Development of People, International Association for Religious Freedom, Catholic International Education Office, International Young Christian Workers and a host of other Jewish, Catholic, and Hindu organizations.
But the FCCC wasn't big and powerful enough to carry out the function the Power had for it. Even in 1933 comments in the Christian Century had been made, "The Federal Council has exhausted its present commission. New conditions require that it be recommissioned with a new charter...to be set free from inertia..."53
In 1942, they began to create the NCC. On Nov. 29, 1950 the National Council of Churches was created. Notice the name of Christ was dropped in the change from the FCCC. Again one notes men like William C. Martin (32 Freemason) was made Pres. of the National Council of Churches, and Hugh I. Evans (33 )- U.S. rep. World Council of Churches.
32 degree Freemason J. Edgar Hoover also watched over the FCCC for the Power. He had his FBI agents within the Federal Council of Churches of Christ leadership.54 When it is mentioned that FBI agents are infiltrated into the FCCC, the reader should remember that the FBI agency has been filled with Masons like Ass. Dir. of FBI Hugh H. Clegg and Ass. Dir. of FBI Clyde A. Tolson.
When examining the CIA, Intelligence Agencies, The World Council of Churches, the Federal Council of Churches of Christ (later transformed into the National Council of Churches) the detective is not going to understand the evidence until he grasps that these agencies were designed ultimately with the objective to bring in a New World Order.
Were this book on the entire New World Order Conspiracy not just the religious side, a seperate chapter would be required for the intelligence agencies. I have chosen to include them in with this chapter on the Councils which they have infiltrated.
Ex-CIA agents Marchetti and Marks disillusioned with the corruption and immoral activities of the CIA have stated in their book that the CIA ("the company") "penetrates and manipulates private institutions, and creates its own organizations (called "proprietaries") when neccessary.55
One of the best kept secrets of intelligence agencies is their infiltration of religious organizations.
Agee, another disillusioned CIA agent, who was with the company for twelve years, says that the CIA was an evil force and that it serves the interests of rich and powerful men, rather than countries.56
However, there are hints of their penetration, if the researcher looks closely. Two examples will be given. JOHN FOSTER DULLES & THE WCC
In the mid 1930s, the Soviets and British were working to encourage Hitler to become aggressive. The British were promoting the belief that they would not declare war on Hitler.57
On Jan. 4, 1933, at Cologne in the home of Baron Kurt von Schroder Adolf Hitler and the Dulles brothers met. The Dulles brothers, Alien and John Foster Dulles were sent over as legal representatives of Kuhn, Loeb Co.58
Kuhn, Loeb Co. had given large short term credits to Germany and wanted a guarantee of repayment. They also wanted to assure Hitler that they would guarantee him the funds neccessary to install him as Chancellor of Germany.59 Later Allen would become head of the European branch of American Intelligence (OSS) and his brother John Foster would become Secretary of the Federal Churches of Christ. John Foster would serve on various FCCC activities, including being the Chairman of the Commission on a Just and Durable Peace. The FCCC Commission on a Just and Durable Peace basically adopted a statement that claimed the Christian churches wanted certain things to be done in the Post-World War II world. By coincidence, their program matched what the New Order and the United Nations was planning to do at the time. By coincidence, Masons in the leadership of the Church of England praised the Commission on a Just and Durable Peace. Also by coincidence, Catholic and Jewish clergy came together and gave their blessing to the Commission's work too.
In 1942, John Foster Dulles apparently adopted plans to use Catholic and Protestant churches and the World Council of Churches for the OSS (which was the forerunner of the CIA) for his own purposes. The OSS analyst who presented him with plans for such an operation, impressed him and was sent to the Berne, Switz. team.60
Controlling and infiltrating the World Council of Churches could not have been very difficult considering the high ratio of high ranking Freemasons on that make up the World Council when it meets. For instance from the U.S. the United States has sent Jesse M. Bador( Mason, General Secretary and President in 1930), Perry E. Gresham (delegate 1949-52, KT & 32 ). Australia sent as the president of the Austrailian Council to the World Council of Churches the Freemason George C. Barber.
It's interesting to note that after the decision was made to use the World Council of Churches by American Intelligence, G. Bromley Oxram, 32 degree & KT, (33 in 1949), was given the position of President of the American Fed. Council of Churches of Christ (served 1944-46) as a stepping stone to becoming the first American president of the World Council of Churches. He remained the president of the World Council of Churches from 1948 to 1954.
Had the reader imagined that the Christian Churches of the World have been represented and headed by a 33 degree Freemason? Also in 1948 at the World Council of Churches in Holland the U.S. was represented by 33 Mason Hugh I. Evans. The American delegate in 1949 was 32 & KT Mason Perry E. Gresham. He was also a delegate to the World Council of Churches conventions in 1950,51, and 52, and participated in the founding assembly in 1949.

The Economy
After another fortnight of solid economic data, the U.S. economy is showing signs of improvement that even the bears shouldn't be able to ignore.
For starters, new claims for unemployment fell almost 8% in the week ending Nov. 20, hitting the lowest level since mid-July of 2008. Continuing claims also fell by more than 3% in the most recent week data is available for them (ending Nov. 13), hitting their lowest level since November of 2008, according to the Labor Department.
As a reminder of how far we've come, new claims are 15% lower than they were a year ago; continuing claims are 24% lower.
With fewer Americans out of work, spending is on the rise. Retail sales rose 1.2% in October, according to the Census Bureau, reaching their highest level since August 2008. It was the fourth straight monthly increase.
The latest revisions to the third-quarter GDP report also showed a U.S. consumer who is more willing to spend than many had thought. Real consumer spending jumped by 2.8%, the fastest pace in almost four years. Overall, GDP growth was revised upward for the quarter, to a respectable 2.5%.
The latest industrial production report also showed positive signs. While overall production was level in October, according to the Federal Reserve, the decline was largely due to unseasonably warm weather, which reduced demand for heating and impacted output in the utility sector. Manufacturing production actually rose by 0.5%, while business equipment output rose 1.1%.
There are still plenty of issues that remain. The housing market's status and future are very uncertain. Existing-home sales fell 2.2% in October, and a couple issues -- including foreclosure stoppage in certain states and inflated year-ago comparisons that involve periods in which buyers were rushing to meet tax credit deadlines -- continue to make is hard to tell exactly what to make of the housing market.
The U.S.'s huge deficit spending and debt burden also continue to be a source of concern. But for now, while the Fed's latest quantitative easing program has upped inflation fears, the dollar has actually been showing some signs of strength, gaining against the Euro, Yen, Canadian dollar, and Pound in the past couple weeks.
Corporate America, meanwhile, continues to make big strides. In October, 196 companies increased profit expectations above analysts' estimates vs. 130 that decreased expectations. That's the widest gap since Bloomberg started tracking the figures in 1999.
Overall, the generally positive economic news in the U.S. was countered by fear of the Irish debt crisis, and concerns that China is going to take steps to curb its dramatic growth so its economy doesn't overheat. Overall for the fortnight, the S&P 500 returned -1.7%, while the Hot List returned -2.2%. For the year, the portfolio is up 9.7% vs. 7.5% for the S&P. Since its inception in July 2003, the Hot List is far outpacing the index, having gained 164.5% vs. the S&P's 19.8% gain.
Looking Past the Fear
Back in late summer, most "experts" were saying that the economic recovery was in serious jeopardy, and that the market was headed for trouble. We'd had our stimulus sugar high, they said; now it was fading fast.
Since then, retail sales have increased in each of the past three months, rising a total of nearly 3% and reaching post-financial-crisis levels. The manufacturing sector has also continued its expansion, stretching its streak to 15 straight months of growth. The service sector has kept expanding, pushing its streak to 10 straight months. New claims for unemployment have fallen by 19.2% since mid-August, and continuing claims are down more than 11% since early July. And, the market has bounced back, with the S&P 500 up more than 10% since Sept. 1, and the Nasdaq Composite posting gains in the 15% range.
But despite significant improvement from the economy -- including improvement in two areas expected to be its downfall (unemployment and consumer spending) -- the overall mood about the economy and stock market is one of pessimism.
All you need to do is read the papers to see how much fear is out there. Just last week, an article from Reuters said that "what's clear is that whatever love affair many Americans may have had with stocks is over, at least for the moment". It featured interviews with several individual investors who said they'd had enough of the stock market, after dealing with two crashes in the past decade.
And the numbers continue to bear out the notion that individual investors are sour on stocks -- particularly U.S. stocks. According to the Investment Company Institute, since the end of September, investors have pulled close to $14 billion out of U.S. equity mutual funds. They've been much less pessimistic on non-U.S. equities, putting more than $11 billion into foreign equity mutual funds in the same period. But that's still a net negative flow into equity funds -- in a period in which investors were pumping more than $28 billion into bond mutual funds, according to ICI.
I think they're making a mistake. With so many expecting so little from the economy -- even as we continue to see significant signs of continued recovery -- valuations are quite attractive. Stocks are trading for about 12 times 2011 projected earnings, according to recent Thomson Reuters data, and many individual companies' shares are even more attractive. Of the 10 stocks in the Hot List, only two have trailing 12-month price/earnings ratio greater than 11 -- despite the fact that they've been producing exceptional growth, and the fact that only two have debt that is more than 23% of their equity.
In a climate in which pessimism continues to reign, good stock-pickers should be particularly rewarded. Signs of strong growth will likely be prized even more than usual, with companies that show an ability to grow sales and profits likely to capture the attention of investors.
The Hot List picked up a quintet of such stocks in today's rebalancing. Several have managed to post very strong growth in a very tough environment over the past couple years. Millicom Cellular, which provides phone service to underserved parts of the world, grew sales by almost 30% and earnings per share by about 17% in 2008, when many firms were struggling to survive. It then went on to increase both sales and EPS in 2009, and it's on pace to do so again this year.
Another newcomer, Aeropostale, grew EPS by 28% and sales by 19% in 2008, a terrible year for most retailers. Then last year, it upped EPS by more than 50% while growing sales by close to 20%. This year it's been more of the same.
lululemon athletica, which sells specialized athletic apparel, largely for yoga, dance, and running, has also excelled. The firm increased sales by more than 30% in 2008 and close to 30% in 2009, while upping EPS from $0.46 to $0.82 over that two-year period. This year, sales and EPS have continued to skyrocket.
Fidelity fund manager Anthony Bolton, whose exceptional long-term track record as a fund manager makes him something of a British Peter Lynch, recently said that he thinks the bull market has entered a second phase. In the first phase, "junk"-type stocks that were hit hardest during the financial crisis fared best. Now, Bolton says, we're in a phase in which investors, clamoring for growth, will focus on companies that can deliver it. The theory makes sense (in fact, it's typical of post-recession rebounds), and the Hot List is focusing on just those sort of companies. The portfolio's ten holdings sport long-term growth rates as high as 150%, and no lower than 18% -- and those growth rates have been compiled over a period that included the worst recession in decades, and the supposedly "tepid" recovery that has followed
Just as importantly, these stocks are selling at attractive valuations -- in many cases, extremely attractive valuations. Despite its rapid growth, for example, Millicom's shares trade for only about six times trailing 12-month earnings. Aeropostale's shares trade for just 11 times trailing 12-month earnings, despite the fact the firm has proven it can produce excellent growth in even the darkest of times.
Keying on stocks like these have helped the Hot List stay ahead of the broader market this year, building on its exceptional long-term track record even while many investors continue to wait on the sidelines. They won't stay there forever, especially with bonds so pricey and yields so low. And as more and more return to stocks, the portfolio should benefit even more.

I attended MMI for two year, getting 11 certifications in 2 brands, Harley and Honda, and what do I have to show for it? A crummy retail job.
90% of the people I graduated with are still at *** part time jobs, and MMI is about as useful as a kick in the face at helping you find a job in the motorcycle field.
They promised a lot of things when I signed up. Great job placement, great discounts because you a student, housing assistance, financial assistance, the whole 9 yards.
What did I get? The only jobs they had were for dang near 3 dollars less a hours than I am currently making, and usually in like nowhere, Nebraska. The discount is 10%, which is hardly worth it. Housing assistance is "Here's a number for some apartments that we have never even checked out (I lived in two complexes recommended by the school. Cops there at least twice a day gunshots, even had my window busted in by a drunken brawl.) And hope you have all the money saved up to get in, because we won't help you!" Financial aid is a joke, since all I ever heard was you need a co-signer for every *** thing. And of course, after 32K in student loans, I graduated. Now they want to pay almost $400 a month to pay them back.
Hmm. Guess they didn't notice the Recession at all. I only make about a grand after taxes each month, so where is the $400 gonna come from? I tried talking to them about it, and they sent me to Sallie Mae. Tried talking to Sallie Mae about it 6 times, and they sent me to MMI.
Do yourself a favor and avoid this school. Yeah The teachers are great, and yes I learned awesome stuff. But the reality is, they just want you *** money and could care less what happens to you after you graduate.
My son went to MMI in Phoenix, and graduated with honors. He was offered jobs in two different states, and moved to NC the week after graduation.
Exciting, right?! Not. He was forced to lower his standards and morals. The service manager would make him do inscrupable things, and blame him if it didn't go right, or if the customer complained.
Forced to do things on bikes that would ensure that they were not safe, and put riders in jeapordy. Oh...he was also shown how to cover scratches with a sharpie! Thankfully, he refused to use one, and copped up to scratching a fender. He would rather they took it out of his measly pay.
He is now in school for computer engineering.
My advice? Unless you open your own shop, or work for a local shop owner, invest your money in a different school that ensures a return on your investment: computers, medical field, etc..
Do u have any pictures. Im looking 4 pics of my son
Mmi orlando has had multiple job openings for students to work at, and has placed about 85% of my graduated friends in solid jobs. You need to have the drive and the want to succeed in the field and further yourself to be able to make it in this industry.
I agree with you . I was lied to by them guaranteeing I would qualify for a grant .
I was 50yrs old in 2002 and did not want a loan. I made this clear to the recruiter I spoke to . After answering several questions I was guaranteed I would qualify for a grant.
A big fat lie . Long story short I'm still paying for a loan 13 years later.
I find it comical that all these kids are crying and complaining about how the school is just out for their money and can't find them a job and if they do get an ENTRY LEVEL position the pay sucks; Welcome to life kids. Talk to any college graduate and see how well things turned out for the majority of them.
They spent more than you and most of them are working $30k a year jobs. They also had to live in cramped quarters during school and not always in the best neighborhoods and I guarantee the school didn't give a *** whether or not they found a job.
This is reality kids, and this school is providing you with exactly what they said they would, an education. Anything else is on you so, grow up!
hahah ENTRY LEVEL is the key statement the kid clearly doesn't understand that
There's an excellent documentary on this topic that may provide you with better info. I recommend you educate yourself on the process of for-profit colleges before you start comparing them to other university systems: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/collegeinc/view/
i spent 5 yrs in the industry did every bit of training and was one harley phd training class short of being a master in parts i made 11 dollars an hour ! who says that being dedicated and having the drive will take care of your problems is a joke!
Hear is what i hear. This school suxs, not worth the money, 40,000 and cant get a job.
BIG HEADS-UP, its not the schools, it's not you . Right now America is in the middle of the biggest scam in a hundred years. Tha economy is horrible. Falsified job reports, falsified unemployment numbers.
Do you people know that ivy league college grads cant find jobs. Maybe some got a resteraunt management job at 35,000 a year to work 70 hours a week. Anybody foolish enough to still think a high dollar education will get you some fancy job is a fool. it will get you in debt for 15-20 years.
But you can bet oblama will be up on stage soon telling us 'HE" created another 400,000 jobs. Back to school, i know top rate Harley mechs. been turning wrenchs for 30 years got laid off, cant find work.
And you think their hiring people who graduated 2 weeks ago. Never going to happen !
I agree. MMI is a waste of time and money.
When I entered, I had no income or possibility of working while in AZ. My "advisor" put me in contact with a woman who rented rooms. He stated that if I was willing to work in food service there would be plenty of jobs available in the area. I was clear that I had no vehicle.
So in the end, I was miles from town with no way to get there. I was lucky to be able to carpool into class with some guys also going to school there. Walking was out of the question in that Arizona sun. The financial aid he talked about was limited.
In the end I left with over $16K in student loans and have been unable to find any work that utilized this education.
The Harley shops I have applied with, were at best, hiring only part time at $10 or less per hour. I think the Dept of Education needs to take a look at this place.
so what your saying is that you got what you went there for (quality education in motorcycles)? ....mmmmm
My husband went through MMI and graduated this year. His dream was to be a BMW master tech.
SOC nine times, perfect attendance and 4.0. He applied for master tech program and never heard anything again. He did find a good job starting at 16.50 an hour.
We also want to go back so he can teach there. Student loans are high and he didn't get further in BMW, but it was a good choice for us.
Thank you for sharing, MMI wife!
What no copy and paste standard response here Fry? How the BS story about contacting the job counselor to get help with a job?
The more I read into MMI, the less likely I am to get "raped" for $40000 thanks but no thanks. I can make $16 and hr here working in IT which I hate, but I won't be in debt up to my eyeballs because of your misleading BS sales pitch.
Ok Bigtwigs, you have *** credit you will need cosigner...DUH!!!!! Any school you go to..You will need a cosigner if you use another type of loan...No wonder you aren't getting any jobs!!!
First of all I have a real job. Most jobs now days start out at less than $10 a hour, unless you doing construction or something similar.
So keep you rude commments to yourself. And mawcorpse, i know it's a passion, I'm not a ***. The whole reson I went to MMI is so I could get paid for doing my passion. Please take you holier than thou attitude elsewhere.
Now Dianna, I have spoken with MMI, though not within the last few months.
I have pretty much all but given up on being a professional motorcycle technician, as my Harley PHD certifications are now out of date, and I cannot afford to move cross country back to Phoenix to retake the course. I am acutally going to go down to the local UTI this week, as the job placement people have offered to help me there, as MMI has done nothing for me.
What job are you working at where you make a grand a month after taxes? McDonalds? Maybe if you had a real job you could pay your bills
cry cry cry. its a passion career not a get rich fast kind.
To Shop Owner.... If you need a good tech let me know.
I am not in need of hand holding.
And have had enough of my own bikes. So I can def, push....
Please forgive the bad grammar and spelling in my complaint above. The biggest problem I have with MMI is the fact that I know I'm a competent technician.
The most experienced? No. The fastest? No.
But willing to learn. Yet some of those that I went to school with, including one guy who thought the best way to put a cylinder head on was a hammer, have jobs in the industry, and were already working at shops when they were in school.
Guys like me, who take their time and ask lots of questions, refuse to cut corners and are generally slower than everybody else, have no chance, since if you don't finish all you projects, you can fail the class, then you have to retake the class, which can cost up to $1000 out of pocket. So, they basically teach most people the fast way of doing things, not the right way.
