How the Credit CARD Act Will Affect Types of Credit Cards
Changes abound for rewards, low interest and student cards.
By Allie Johnson - CreditCards.com
Thursday, April 1, 2010
How will the CARD act affect you? That depends in part on which type of credit card you've got in your wallet. The combined impact of the economic downturn and the restrictions placed on credit card companies by the Credit CARD Act mean card issuers will be changing how they do business in ways that will affect every credit card -- but the impact will vary depending on the type.
"I think we'll see a reverting back to the model of the 1980s -- annual fees and higher interest rates," says Dennis Moroney, research director for TowerGroup, a financial services industry research and consulting firm. "But in those days, everything was pretty plain vanilla -- there will be much more creativity now." One by one for each of 10 types of cards, here's how experts see the CARD Act's impact:
"Bad Credit" Credit Cards
The CARD Act's crackdown on extremely high fees will severely curtail the ability of issuers to offer so-called "fee harvesting" credit cards -- cards with hefty upfront fees and extremely low credit limits -- geared toward people with bad credit, experts say.
"I think the more reputable issuers, if they were issuing these cards in the past, are going to be much more reluctant to do so now," Moroney says. Issuers that do market cards geared toward consumers in the subprime market will have to strike a balance between charging enough to cover the increased risk and following the new law, according to Ken Paterson, vice president, research operations/director credit advisory service for Mercator Advisory Group, a consumer payments industry research and consulting firm. One immediate impact was the introduction of high-rate cards to replace high-fee cards: One card issuer, First Premier, experimented with. To date, no one has followed its lead.
"One of the silver linings of the CARD Act is that it has built in more protections against some of the more egregious pricing that sometimes creeps into that market," Paterson says. In the future, Moroney predicts customers with shaky credit will gravitate toward prepaid cards and secured cards.
Balance Transfer Cards
For most consumers, being able to get a balance transfer card that offers a 0 percent, 1 percent or 2 percent interest rate on a transferred balance for much more than a year will become a thing of the past.
"Teaser rates aren't going to go away, but they're probably not going to be as lucrative for the consumer as they were -- you're going to see a higher rate and a shorter introductory term," says Jerry Straessle, president and CEO of JLS Associates, a consulting firm specializing in the credit and debit card industry. Even before the act's passage, card issuers were retreating from one-year introductory periods and toward the minimum of six months mandated by the CARD Act. Expect introductory rates of 7 percent to 9 percent or higher, Straessle predicts.
"The CARD Act is going to have upward pressure on rates simply because the ability to adjust rates on outstanding balances is severely limited now," Straessle says. Issuers "can't do anything about accounts that have protected balances, so they will book new accounts at higher rates of interest to make up for lost revenue from penalty fees and penalty interest."
However, there will always be issuers bucking the latest trend that make it worth shopping around. Citi, for example, just extended one of its 0 percent balance transfer card offers from a maximum of 12 months to a maxiumum of 15 months.
Business Cards
None of the provisions in the CARD Act apply to business credit cards. "So far, small business cards are unaffected by the Act -- only consumer cards were included," says Mercator's Paterson. "But it wouldn't surprise me if some of the improved disclosure that was legislated on the consumer side eventually found its way to the small business side too."
Though business owners should keep personal and business expenses separate, Paterson says the increased protections on the consumer side might push very small business owners away from business cards. "I haven't seen data evidence of this, but a one or two-person business -- a freelance programmer, artist or Web designer -- might say, 'My personal card works just fine for business purposes. I don't need a small business product.'"
Debit Cards
Debit cards have never been all that profitable for banks, but new rules on overdraft charges mean banks will make even less. Starting in July 2010, new customers will not be allowed to overdraft using their debit cards unless they opt in ahead of time. Overdraft fee income had been a big profit center for banks.
To help make up the lost revenue, many banks may start charging annual fees for debit cards, probably in the $20 to $30 range, Moroney says. Or, banks might charge for other services, such as financial planning or linking accounts to help customers avoid the embarrassment of having their card declined at a store, Robertson says.
Banks probably will get innovative; for example, providing more rewards debit cards and more hybrid credit/debit cards, as well as cards geared toward students who now cannot get credit cards because of the new law, experts say. Also, banks will reinforce responsible management of personal finances -- maybe with more programs similar to Bank of America's BAC Keep the Change, in which the bank automatically rounds up each check card purchase to the nearest dollar and transfers the difference to the cardholder's savings account. "We'll see more products that tap into consumer appeal," Moroney says.
Gas Cards
The CARD Act will indirectly influence the most popular type of gas card -- the co-branded card, which typically is issued by a bank in partnership with an oil company, and offers perks and rewards to the customer, experts say.
"If there's a revolving feature, it's going to be more expensive," Straessle says, noting that there has been a lot of talk in the industry about controlling costs by paring down rewards. "If you get 5 cents in fuel credits per gallon of gas now, you can probably expect in the future it's going to be a lesser amount -- maybe a penny or two pennies less," Straessle says.
Low Interest Cards
In the near future, interest rates on fixed rate low interest cards, as well as cards with low introductory rates, likely will go up several points, and issuers will be even more selective about who gets these cards, experts say.
"Low interest is a lot less desirable for most card companies because they don't have the ability to change rates as readily as they did in the past" because of the CARD Act, says Beth Robertson, director of payments research for consulting firm Javelin Strategy & Research. "So low interest cards will be more for very valuable and very creditworthy transactors -- people who carry high balances, pay regularly, have good credit scores and have a high volume of transactions, probably more than $1,000 a month. Often someone in that category is someone who travels a lot on business and is purchasing airfare, hotel rooms and meals out, but it could also be someone who is especially wealthy and is spending money on higher-ticket items."
Prepaid and Gift Cards
The Credit CARD Act imposes pre-purchase disclosure of certain fees, such as inactivity fees, associated with prepaid cards -- and mandates that the cards not expire before five years. The new rules for prepaid cards -- including gift certificates, reloadable prepaid cards and gift cards -- go into effect Aug. 22, 2010.
"In the past, some expired after a year -- if you still had money on it, you lost it," Straessle says. He predicts that, to make up for this lost revenue, issuers will start charging a higher upfront fee to get a prepaid card and also a higher fee to reload the card -- as high as the market will bear. "It will depend what they think they can do competitively," he says. "It's the logical place for additional revenue to happen because there are not many revenue sources in a prepaid cards program."
Reward Cards
Rewards card issuers already have started to move away from a mass-market mentality in which the goal is to create buzz around a rewards program and get as many people as possible to apply, according to John Bartold, vice president, Loyalty Solutions for Epsilon, a marketing services firm. "Issuers already have tightened up requirements for who gets into a loyalty or rewards program," Bartold says. "The recession and the indirect impact of the CARD Act are making issuers look at these things a little differently and a little more smartly."
Credit card companies have reams of data on their customers and probably will start using that data they've collected to target their customers in a more relevant way, Bartold says. "It's not going to happen right away, but I think we're going to start seeing cards more focused for certain types of lifestyles -- where consumers can find a card that matches them rather than a generic spend-a-dollar, get-a-point," Bartold says.
Card issuers might do that by creating a general program customers can tailor to their own preferences -- similar to the Discover CardBuilder approach -- or by creating a card targeted toward a specific group of consumers such as sports fans, eco-conscious consumers or music lovers. "For example, with music and entertainment, you could have a site where customers could download music, you could have a newsletter that reviews artists by genres, you could look at sponsoring a concert," Bartold says.
Student Cards
The days of the big credit card issuers setting up tables on college campuses and offering free pizza to entice throngs of students to sign up for easy credit are over. The CARD Act prohibits that type of marketing and requires anyone under 21 to prove a source of income or have a parent co-sign to get a card.
"We probably will see fewer student cards out there because the CARD Act restricts a lot of it," says Greg Meyer, community relations manager for Meriwest Credit Union in San Jose, Calif., who predicts more issuers will offer debit and prepaid cards geared toward teens and young adults.
New student cards probably will have higher interest rates and lower credit limits and will be treated more as a vehicle for building financial responsibility, according to TowerGroup's Moroney. "They might offer little things that will reinforce responsible behavior," he says. "'You paid your bill on time this month, Bob or Sally -- let us treat you to half off your next latte at Starbucks.' Or, it could be a discount on textbooks. To a college kid, that's a big deal. They could send the merchant promotions directly to a PDA with a bar code and the student could spend it immediately."

Winnipeg is a city of 691,800 people nestled in the Southern portion of Manitoba, Canada. It is the capital of this central providence and the 8th largest metropolis in the country. On the map, Winnipeg is about 90 miles north of the U.S. border and 650 miles NW of Minneapolis, Minnesota. According to the tourism industry, Winnipeg calls itself a "little big city" and the "cultural cradle of Canada."
Within all its hustle and bustle, Winnipeg is home to a group of people who call themselves the WinniPagans. It's a catchy term; the origins of which are unknown. However, it is used endearingly to refer to a small, tightly-knit community of approximately 600 Pagans who live in and around Winnipeg. In 2012, these WinniPagans became the subject of a short documentary that was written, produced and directed by one of their own, Dodie Graham McKay.
Dodie, a native of Winnipeg, is an indie filmmaker who found a love of filmmaking through unexpected circumstance. In 2005, after returning from living in England, Dodie needed a job – any job. With a friend's help, she was hired as a production coordinator in a local documentary film office. From there she learned filmmaking skills which eventually led to her co-directing the documentary-short, "West Central: A View From Here" with her husband, Jeff McKay.
"WinniPagans" is Dodie's first solo "flight." She recalls:
My high school English teacher used to say "Write about something you love". When I wanted to make my first film I had to think about what I love that would be the subject for my project. My pagan community was the first and foremost thing I could think of.
The 25-minute documentary explores this thriving Pagan community that resides in Canada's cultural cradle. Dodie remarks:
"I really felt quite strongly that this community was due for some sort of document to mark the progress we have made. Many of the folks in the film have been active since our community went public in the mid to late 1980s and I wanted to capture some of these stories before they are forgotten."
In late 2011 Dodie took her idea to MTS, a local telecom company that finances and airs indie films about Manitoba that are produced by local filmmakers. As explained by Craig Lawrence of MTS' communication department:
MTS TV (Manitoba Telecom Service) supports community producers through Local Expression funding as a condition of our license as a broadcast distribution undertaking (BDU) in Canada… "Stories from Home" programming is quite varied and often represents a personal connection between the filmmaker and the subject, resulting in programming that – like The WinniPagans – can offer glimpses into different ways of life.
Because of her experience, Dodie had a golden opportunity to pitch "WinniPagans" to Cam Bennett, executive director of "Stories from Home." He readily accepted the project and production began on January 21, 2012.
The film's small budget consisted of a crew of four with other on-and-off camera volunteers from within the Pagan community. Production lasted through April 29th with three months of post-production. In September of 2012, Dodie delivered the final edited product to MTS. She recalls:
"I was so excited that MTS liked the show and accepted it as it was. They even gave us some cash to rent the local art house cinema for a premiere screening. The executive producer, Cam Bennett, asked me if there was a special Pagan holiday coming up. At that point Samhain was the next big date so he offered to make that the broadcast premiere."
On Monday October 29th, the film premiered at the Cinematheque Art House. Before the actual screening, musician Glen Hoban performed and Kate Bitney read from her book of poetry entitled "Firewalk." Then, Cam Bennett stood up to offer some words about the film and to introduce Dodie.
"I was a bundle of nerves the night of the premiere. Just before the doors opened I went to the bathroom to splash some water on my face and then the magnitude of what I had done hit me full force – who did I think I was making a film about my own community? I live here and these are my own people, the people I care about, my friends and fellow pagans. My heart was in my mouth as I went out to make my speech and introduce the film, I was so nervous! As the film was playing I sat in the back of the cinema and listened to the 80 or so viewers as they laughed at the funny parts and clapped when they saw familiar faces, it was great! Nobody chucked rotten fruit or stormed out! The response was terrific. Folks seem to be appreciating the spirit of the thing and enjoy the way we are portrayed."
After the screening, many of the viewers thanked Cam Bennett for his support and in doing so caught him completely off-guard. Like so many Pagan communities, the WinniPagans rarely have the opportunity to see themselves, or any Pagan, visually portrayed without sensationalized imagery or stereotypes. Even when such a documentary is made, it is rarely funded and openly supported by a mainstream corporation. Cam Bennett didn't expect the profound level of appreciation that he and MTS would receive.
Since November 3, 2012, "WinniPagans" has been airing on the MTS' "Stories from Home" series. The film has also been screened in Southern Ontario and in Montreal. Dodie's visual story documenting the lives of "her people" has now touched Pagans across Canada's wide expanse. She said, "It was exciting to see that you didn't have to be from Winnipeg to really get something out of the story."
Why has the story been warmly received? She attributes its success to some of the intangibles inherent in film production. When a Pagan filmmaker creates a film about his or her own Pagan community, the main production elements (visuals, narrative emphasis and pacing) will be different than when a non-Pagan (or Hollywood) produces the same film. The goal is different. The perspective is different. The entire feeling left in the viewers lap will, as a result, be different.
Dodie made a film about what she sees everyday; not what people want to see. The film is a slice of life documentary – a true "reality show," if you will. In this way, it provides a unique opportunity for Pagan viewers to hypothetically cross the threshold of the silver screen and be themselves. And, it offers the world a chance to see real Witches – minus the glamour of a Hollywood back lot.
What's next for Dodie? She is currently working on her second film for MTS about a long-time local social activist. After that, she hopes to expand the "WinniPagan" project into a longer piece about Canadian Pagans, in general. She has already been offered support from a number of Pagan communities across the country.
Want to see the film? At this time, "WinniPagans" is only available to MTS' customers through the on-demand service. However, she will be holding screenings at Paganicon in Minneapolis in March and at Gaia Gathering in Gatineau Quebec in May. Not attending either event? Dodie will be selling the film online starting in April. All profits from the sale will be donated to a scholarship fund that offsets travel expenses to Gaia Gathering. To keep up with Dodie and the film's happenings, you can follow the "WinniPagans" FaceBook fan page.
NOTE: I was not able to view the film in its entirety before this post. Due to an unexpected blizzard in Winnipeg, mail has been delayed. However, after I receive a copy, I will post a complete film review and update.

"Phantom Passport" by Nathan Spoor
Photos by G. Art by Nathan Spoor.
"Phantom Passport" by Nathan Spoor is now showing at the Bold Hype Gallery in New York. The Los Angeles based artist has created worlds that you don't need a passport to enter. However, I should warn you that once your mind takes a trip to the places Spoor has created, you're not going to want to come back. There's so much going on in every painting and when you see the vivid colors and detail in person, you'll be wowed. You never know what to expect in each painting as you'll find elements of both joy and sorrow in his works. One thing can be expected though – you'll be able to stare at each painting for a long time and still discover new elements in them.
Also on display is an exhibit of sculptures called "New Dimensions," featuring art from Colin Christian, Chet Zar, Martin Wittfooth, Chris Ryniak, Brian Despain, Jason Freeny, Andrew Bell, Doctor A, Jason Limon, Amanda Spayd, Nicole Gastonguay, Douglas Hoffman and Debra Broz.
"Phantom Passport" by Nathan Spoor and "New Dimensions" by Various Artists are now showing at the Bold Hype Gallery (located at 547 West 27th Street, 5th Floor) in New York through June 3, 2011.
I attended the opening night reception for "Phantom Passport," and I had the opportunity to speak with Nathan Spoor about his wonderful art. Naturally the first thing I had to ask was, "where do you begin?" Without revealing his trade secrets, Nathan Spoor gave me a look almost as colorful and mysterious as his paintings! See a photo from the moment after that conversation below.
Thanks Nathan for being so cool and for making such great art!
Gail said,
I loved his paintings so much, plus he is super HOT!

Where do the world's talents immigrate to?
"We're the nation that just had six of our scientists and researchers win Nobel Prizes—and every one of them was an immigrant," U.S. President Barack Obama recently said after the Nobel Prize winners were announced.
The Internet was abuzz about it, and how could it not be?
The announcement couldn't come at a better time. Not only are US Nobel laureates immigrants, but also the country has been identified as one of four where the world's high-skilled immigrants are increasingly living, according to a new World Bank research article. The other three countries are the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.

As LED lighting becomes more affordable and accesible, consumers are beginning to see the financial and environmental benefits to converting to this exciting new technology — and are putting money on it. This renovation to energy-efficient LEDs is responsible for the anticipated growth of the LED market — expected to double by 2014.
LED Table lamps and LED Desk lamps are an ideal way to begin the process of converting to LEDs. Lightology offers a vast array of award-winning, classic and modern table lamps that fit perfectly with other contemporary lighting or design styles.
Koncept offers an array of extremely popular LED desk lamps, like the I-Bar Mini and the Z-Bar, that fold away or extend for high-power LED brightness with four-step dimming. The Equo desk lamp recently earned a 'Best in Class' award from Next Generation Luminaires, an LED competition sponsored by the Department of Energy. It earned this recognition for its touch-sensitive control strip, great value (only $225) and cool design.
One of the most popular debuts in LED lighting this year was the Kelvin LED from Flos. Designed by Antonio Citterio, the fixture has an on/off touch sensor, 365° adjustable arm and 355° adjustable head. It consumes a mere 8 watts and is made entirely of recycled materials. Its soft, warm white light, has, until recently, been difficult to achieve with LED light sources.
The Link Table Lamp from Pablo adds a bit of whimsy and fun — coming in a variety of hues like green, orange, white, silver, grey and black and match with the coordinating Link Clamp-On, Link Wall Mount and Link Floor Lamp versions.
Some iconic fixtures, like Tolomeo from Artemide and Berenice from Luce Plan are now available in LED for a contemporary lighting touch that will never go out of style.

The Los Angeles football rivalry may color a lot of perceptions, but it didn't affect Jim Mora's opinion of USC coach Ed Oregeron.
"I don't know if I'm allowed to tell you this, but I'm going to tell you this," the UCLA coach said. "I voted him for Pac-12 Coach of the Year last night. That's what kind of job I think he's done."
Mora most likely isn't alone. The Trojans have reeled off six consecutive conference wins since firing Lane Kiffin in late September, with Orgeron instilling some swagger back into a moribund squad. The 52-year-old, promoted from defensive line coach to interim coach, has lifted his team to second place in the Pac-12 South.
Most of the changes haven't been schematic. USC's offensive playbook has expanded, and Mora has noticed the defense using four down linemen more often. The key has been the injection of enthusiasm and confidence. Athletic director Pat Haden likely has his eyes set on bigger names, but Orgeron has at least forced himself into the conversation and earned the loyalties of numerous players and fans.
"He gave them a real spark," Mora said. "He really did. Coach O, I think everybody who knows him knows he's got an infectious personality. You see it in the way his team plays."
Orgeron wasn't the only beneficiary leading up to Saturday's 5 p.m. kickoff at the Coliseum. Mora also talked up star receiver Marqise Lee, whom he compared to eight-time Pro Bowler Marvin Harrison. The defending Biletnikoff Award winner has been limited by a knee injury most of the season and missed three games since the end of September. Lee totaled 1,721 yards and 14 touchdowns in 2012 but is down to 604 yards and two scores this season.
"You can tell he's not 100 percent healthy, but that doesn't mean a lot when it comes to Marqise Lee," said Mora, who praised the player's ability to gut through pain. "Last year, I thought he was the best in the country, and I have no reason to say he's not this year."
He also said despite his high opinion of Lee, they have seen each other only a couple of times over the past year.
"He probably thinks I'm a stalker," Mora joked.
Up in the air
UCLA quarterback Brett Hundley and offensive lineman Xavier Su'a-Filo remain undecided about declaring for the 2014 NFL draft.
Hundley and his father denied a report last month linking him to Jay Z's Roc Nation sports agency. The redshirt sophomore's stock has fallen a bit as he nears the end of an uneven season, but he still has the tools to become a high selection.
"I guess after the SC game, it'll be ears up," he said. "Either after the SC game or after the bowl game, we'll be able to make that decision."
Su'a-Filo is a junior this season but could have declared a year ago because he already was three years removed from high school. The top guard prospect took a two-year Mormon mission after playing as a true freshman in 2009.
Spilled ink
Early this week, UCLA boarded up the statue of John Wooden in front of Pauley Pavilion and the bronze bear on Bruin Walk — lest any students from across town get any ideas.
Campus newstands were not similarly protected, since papers still need to be distributed. On Tuesday morning, however, several issues of The Daily Bruin were replaced by copies of The Daily Trojan.

Q. Is Thanksgiving considered a religious holiday, or can public schools clearly study the connection between Pilgrims and their desire to worship God?
A. Thanksgiving is a holiday we are allowed to cover fully. As early as kindergarten, we begin teaching the students about Pilgrims and Native Americans, and how and why the first Thanksgiving occurred. We tell them about the Pilgrims' plight to move to a land where they could worship their own God and not be forced to follow a specific religion. This is part of our history, and children enjoy learning about this holiday. We often throw in some turkeys, lots of writing on what we are thankful for, and even host a feast or two. Schools cover more than you might think, and while we must be mindful of people with different religions and traditions around particular holidays, this holiday brings all people together in our country and our classrooms.
Q. Do you think teachers should be required to post homework online by second or at least third grade?
A. I do not think posting homework is difficult and I think many teachers have computers today, but I do not think posting homework online should be required. If teachers post homework online, parents are able to check on their children to make sure they are writing homework down correctly and completing all assignments, but there is a down side to this step. The child should learn, as early as second and third grade, how to write homework assignments correctly and get his or her own materials. If they forget something, or worse if they lie and say they do not have homework when they do, the teacher should have a system for notifying the family that the child is not handling the responsibility of homework properly. If, however, a parent comes along every night and finds the assignments for the child rather than have the child become responsible themselves, that could become a problem. As an upper grade teacher, I posted the homework online, but I required my students to write assignments before lunch and they were not allowed to go to lunch until homework was copied properly, so they generally wrote the homework down pretty well. Kids must be responsible for their own assignments and for getting them done.
Q. What was the TV, computer guideline you gave again? I couldn't find the paper I saved for my grandson and they are visiting with their three children. I wanted to show them how much less they should watch than I know they will.
A. I think children should not watch TV or do computers or video games at all before the age of 2. From the age of 2 to 5, kids should not watch more than 30 minutes a day of TV or computers or video games (not 30 minutes at each, but 30 minutes total). Kids from 5 to 10 years old, should still be limited to no more than 1 hour on the computer or TV. I would imagine my guidelines are different than many other families, especially since I read that the average child spends 4 to 6 hours on digital entertainment which includes TV, video games, or computers. That number is so sad to me. If a child goes to school until 3, comes home and watches even 5 hours of "digital entertainment," that brings you to 8 p.m. There is no time in there for dinner or homework and certainly no time for reading or developing an active imagination and that is why kids that have this schedule are not the most successful in school. Children need about 10 to 11 hours of sleep a night as well, so the time after 8 p.m. should be spent getting ready for bed.

TEMPE, Ariz. — Mike Trout isn't comfortable discussing the contract extension talks between him and the Angels.
"It's interesting what people are saying about it," Trout said Wednesday at the Angels' spring training complex. "Other than that I don't want to comment on it."
For the Angels, that might be for the better.
What people are saying — including some baseball executives — is that there is no direct comparison to be made between Trout and any other player eligible for a contract extension at this stage of his career and at his age. A short list of comparable 22-year-old players includes names like Ted Williams and Mickey Mantle.
The largest contract extension in baseball history belongs to Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto. His deal, signed in April 2012, is worth $225 million over 10 years.
But Votto was 28 years old when he signed that contract, about seven months away from free agency. Most of all, he isn't Mike Trout. By the numbers, no other current player can compare.
It must be tempting for a 22-year-old to contemplate the potential to become baseball's highest-paid player. Maybe Trout's greatest challenge is to let others — especially his agent, Craig Landis — do the contemplating for him.
"Social media has put a lot of young powerful players probably out there maybe more than they're comfortable with, or more than it has in any time in history," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "That's something you have to deal with. Mike, he won't let it be a distraction.
"I think that he understands he's a premier player and there's a lot of interest in what he does both on and off the field, whether it's endorsements or whether someone's tweeting he had ice cream … that comes with the territory now in his group. He's very level-headed. I don't think he's going to have any problem separating a lot of that."
Maybe the greater challenge lies with the Angels.
A year ago, Trout's camp was so miffed by his assigned salary of $510,000, Landis issued a statement saying it "falls well short of a 'fair' contract and I have voiced this to the Angels throughout the process." The Angels disagreed.
Against that backdrop, there's a renewed effort to make Trout as comfortable as possible this year.
He will begin the season as the Angels' everyday center fielder, with Josh Hamilton penciled in for left field and Kole Calhoun in right. Last year Trout never seemed totally comfortable in left field — particularly at the wall, where he made spectacular catches seem routine during his first two seasons in center.
"Playing (center field) your whole life, you want to stay home," he said. "It's like taking you out of your home."
Scioscia said Trout never came to the manager's office to request a move back to center. Nor did Hamilton request a move from right to left, where he thinks he'll be better served this year.
Trout moved anyway when opening-day center fielder Peter Bourjos missed more than 100 games due to injuries last season. Bourjos was traded to St. Louis in November and Raul Ibanez was signed, in part, to back up Hamilton in left.
Trout is prone to giving short answers; sometimes that makes it difficult to discern how genuine his answer is. That was the case Wednesday when he was asked if Anaheim feels like home.
"Yeah, I love playing there," Trout said. "Fans are great. Can't complain about the weather. Last year I think we got rained out one time in BP in the last 15 years."
Trout left no ambiguity about how important it is for him to play on a winning team long-term.
"It is important," he said. "You play the game to win. I think the group of guys that we have this year, like I said, we've got to get hot early. Whatever it takes, if it's playing full nine-inning games in spring to start earlier, that's what we've got to do. It's going to be a challenge for us this year."
The Angels have missed the playoffs four consecutive seasons. For Anaheim to feel like home — the kind of place Trout can see himself playing another eight or 10 years — maybe missing the playoffs again isn't an option.
Scioscia said Albert Pujols isn't ready to play first base every day in spring training, though he expects Pujols to be the team's everyday first baseman once the regular season begins. Pujols didn't play after July 26 last year because of a torn plantar fascia in his left foot.

Construction teams often face challenges during two phases of a construction project — start-up and completion — according to a survey from FMI Corp., a Raleigh, N.C.-based management consulting firm, and the Construction Management Association of America (CMAA), a McLean, Va.-based construction industry association. FMI and CMAA surveyed more than 100 owners in both the public and private sectors, and the majority identified incomplete drawings and poor planning as the primary culprits for cost overruns. About 80% of the respondents reported that the quality of design documents has declined to the point that subcontractors are completing the design through shop drawings.
More than half of the respondents expect the construction manager to lead a project from the beginning to the end by managing the design, funding, scheduling, and construction. Oftentimes, however, construction managers don't get involved early enough in the construction project, and as a result, the project owners have insufficient time and funding to devote to the pre-design stage.

From Our Kitchen to Yours!
Eating well is as much a part of promoting good health as running or walking, so we want to give you something healthy to do between workouts. You can read more about our guidelines for a healthy diet in either the Chi Running book or the Chi Walking book.
We recommend using fresh organic ingredients whenever they're available. It might cost a bit more now, but the lack of chemical sprays and fertilizers in your system will pay off in the "long run."
Most of our recipes are meals in themselves. We usually serve just one, rich, healthy course for each meal. This makes prep and clean-up a lot simpler and helps you regulate your caloric intake.
Calculating Quantities
You'll find our way of calculating ingredient amounts a little different. We begin by calculating the total cups of food needed for the meal by adding up the total amount of cups eaten by each meal guest. For most of our meals eat about a 2 cups/adult if it is going to be the main course for the meal. Maybe 1 cup/person if it's a side dish. In our diet plan we eat two hearty meals a day (breakfast and dinner) with a light snack in the afternoon.
We have found that when we cook using this total cup method, we don't overeat or have many leftovers.

One of the musical highlights of 2004 for me was seeing Leon Russell perform at the Dakota Jazz Club and Restaurant in Minneapolis. I wrote about the show in "Stranger in a strange land." Included in Leon's set was his beautiful love song "A song for you." Ray Charles performed a magnificent cover of the song on 1993's "My World."
One of the musical highlights of 2005 for me has been the chance to offer our readers free downloads of the songs of Bruce Thiessen, a/k/a Dr. BLT. Bruce's site is here. This week Bruce wrote on a couple of occasions with offers for Power Line readers:
To honor all of the soldiers in Iraq, who bravely sacrificed and gave their all for the sake of liberty in 2005, and to commemorate a year that ended with some very good news out of Iraq, Im offering this song as a free download to all visitors to your site: "My Six-string Weapon of Mass Construction"
Words and music by Dr. BLT © 2005
Yesterday Bruce wrote with one more to help see the new year in with a bang:
I should really give you guys a break, after all, it is the holidays, but, for what its worth, heres my latest, just in time for the New Year: "Right-wing Resolution"
Words and music by Dr. BLT © 2005
And then one more:
It's a right-wing rockabilly remix of a song that I released a few months back that got liberals mocking in droves, so I thought if the liberals hated it, the song may be one of my better ones. I could be wrong.
It's my right-wing New Year's advice to all of those young liberals out there spreading STDs around like they were going out of style. It features a whole verse dedicated to the Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinski matter, and it features myself on vocals doing my George Bush (41) imitation. And I don't even have to try. My voice just comes out like that on certain songs. HAPPY NEW YEAR, and thanks for all your support!

The emergence of such amulets, talismans connected with the beginning of widespread use of light carts with nomadic Scythians in the IV. BC They are becoming a normal burial in the nobility. Consequently, the wagon was a social symbol, a symbol of belonging to the order of the Scythian nobility. The wagons have played a role in the Scythian cult, due to the significance of the horse in the religious beliefs of the Scythians. The basis of these views were solar cult rituals associated with representations of the sacred chariot of the sun. The wheels also put in front of the dromos. Amulets - metal model spoked wheels were bronze, lead, tin sometimes gold. They were the emblems of the sun and served as amulets, protecting the peace of the dead. Amulet - symbolized a chariot wheel, in which the deceased together with the solar deity of light traveling to the country. Scythians - ekzoetnonim ancient Greek origin, is applied to the peoples in antiquity and the Middle Ages, as in Eastern Europe and in Asia. The ancient Greeks called the country where lived the Scythians - Scythia (ancient Greek. Σκυθική, Gr. Σκυθία, lat. Scythia). Early information about the Scythians is known from the writings of ancient authors (Herodotus, et al.) And the archaeological excavations carried out in the territories of the Lower Danube to Tuva. Scythian languages presumably belong to the Eastern Iranian sub-group of the Iranian languages. Later, since the era of the Great Migration, the ethnonym "Scythians" is used in Byzantine chronicles names for the various peoples who inhabited the territory of Great Scythia Scythia Minor and European Sarmatia Best Set of lot Welcome!!!

Didace Namujimbo,
34, a reporter for the United Nations-sponsored broadcasting network Radio
Okapi, in the volatile eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, was shot by
unknown gunmen at close range on Friday evening. Namujimbo was the second Radio
Okapi journalist assassinated in the border town of
With the exception of a mobile phone, personal valuables--including US$50 in his wallet--were not taken, according to his brother Déo Namujimbo, who is the local vice-president of the Congolese National Press Union. Neighbors allegedly heard a heated exchange between the journalist and the alleged gunmen shortly before the shooting, according to news reports. CPJ is investigating to determine whether he was killed because of his journalism.
No arrests have been made, but Radio Okapi quoted Bukavu public prosecutor Jacques Melimeli as saying that a forensic investigation was under way. The journalist was hit with a single bullet in the neck, he said.
"We condemn the heinous murder of another colleague at Radio
Okapi, Didace Namujimbo, and send our condolences to his family and
colleagues," said Tom Rhodes, CPJ's
Namujimbo was a Radio Okapi reporter since February 2006, according to Florien Barbey, bureau chief of the Bukavu station. Although Namujimbo had not reported any threats during his employment there, Barbey said that Okapi would now ask staffers to begin "systematically" reporting any dangers. U.N. vehicles escort Radio Okapi journalists to and from work.
Namujimbo was the second Radio Okapi journalist recently murdered under murky circumstances. In June 2007, Serge Maheshe was killed in Bukavu. In May, a Bukavu military tribunal sentenced three civilians to death for that murder, but local and international legal experts denounced irregularities in the proceedings. It was not confirmed that Maheshe was killed because of his work.
Namujimbo is the fifth Congolese journalist murdered since 2005, according to CPJ research. Three others, Patrick Kikuku Wilungula, Franck Ngyke Kangundu, and Bapuwa Mwamba have been murdered in unclear circumstances, according to CPJ research. There have been no arrests in Wilungula's murder and investigations into the deaths of Kanugundu and Mwamba did not establish a clear motive for the crimes.

Greeting to All,
I am James E Toler Jr. as a young boy I was told of the family, how we once lived in a Castle in Ireland and came to America, the family had farms and slaves. I was told how my Great Grandfather moved from Virginia to Oklahoma with Maguires and and settled the family farm.
My father was able to see California when the family had to moved because of a great drought in the heartland of America, and he fell in love with the sea.
That is where I was raised, as the son of a Boat Builder.
I joined the US Army and was a Rescue Pilot among other occupations during my 29 year tenure. I now write music.
I look forward to some day soon seeing Ireland and meeting more of the clan.

I spent most of last week trying to not catch whatever it is that Dean has. We both got flu shots, so I was surprised that he was so sick, but this is supposedly the worst cold and flu season in the last ten years, so go figure. Poppy went to her first training class with other dogs, and I thought she acted like a freaking rock star. At the class. The rest of the week, at home, not so much. At least she behaved herself in public. Sigh.

Hmmm ... I pinged my contact within Penguin and was told they were working on it. This said, I seem to remember that beowulf.org was Scyld property before the acquisition by Penguin. Looking at the whois output somewhat confirms ownership. If this is the case, "we" can't move it "elsewhere" without the owners (Penguin's) permission. I think that part of why its fallen by the wayside at Penguin is due to Don taking up residence at Nvidia, and no one either stepping up to it or being assigned to it. All of this said, if a reasonable proposal is made to Penguin about helping to run/administer it, I think they might be willing to consider it. If, on the other hand, it is approached in a somewhat more brusque manner, I wouldn't hold a refusal to consider proposals against them. So far, we, Chris Samuel, Doug Eadline, Jon A, and a few others have indicated a willingness to help. I can't say I like mailman very much (set many up, royal PIA to deal with IMO), but Chris Samuel has good mailman-foo. Might make sense to enable admin by Chris and a small group of mailman-gurus. I've got (whether I like it or not) web-foo ... and mail server foo ... and would be happy to help there. Doug/Jon/... have foo of all sorts, and would certainly help out. If we needed distributed carbon-bots for moderation, this is doable (Chris might be able to comment on this). We would (my company) be happy to setup/donate a small server with storage to run this if Penguin wants to get completely out. We could host it as well at our site. Could also run it on EC2, though I can tell you that this is not nearly as cheap as Amazon might wish you to think. The cost benefit doesn't really work so well for this ... Lots of possibilities. Seems to me though, that one of the natural leaders of this would be Doug Eadline. Don't know where ClusterMonkey sits, but that is a well run site.

shaneltd brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 129 Designs von 19 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
We need to see another design for our logo. See http://pentagram.com/en/portfolio/m…-index.php for inspiraiton
Try just playing with the letters K and F, Maybe you can have arrows on each part of the F pointing forward. You can even try putting shoes on the bootom of each line of the k.
My partners are concerned that a soccer kick will not work with the longevity and the mission of our organization. Try just the letters Kicking it Forward. Start off small and grow bigger. Our gift starts off small and grows to build communities
We would like to see a logo that effectively expresses our organization's mission to improve the health and educational opportunities of impoverished children around the globe through giving them shoes. The logo should also express or resemble the importance of community engagement, collaboration, and support which will be vital to acheiving our mission. A unity, connectednes, or togetherness motiff or theme may aid the expression of community, but please be creative.
So for theme to be incorporated in the logo:
1.) Shoes
2.) Globe
3.) children
4.) Community
5.) improving health & educational opportunities & quality of life for impoverished children
Kicking it Forward
About us - Kicking it Forward collects and ships shoes to children in impoverished communities so that they can attend distant schools, play sports, and improve their health and quality of life. Kicking it Forward achieves its objectives by building collaborative partnerships with youth sports organizations, community groups, and schools that have access to the used shoes and volunteers eager to make a difference
Try just black and white, No other color or maybe 1 other color. the logo needs to be simple and clear and needs to look good in black and white
- Nothing chessy, No hearts, rainbows, or happy faces
- Nothing complicated
- Nothing stock / print shop

Scene 3 Aliya Vinay Opening Conversation
Shot Description:
Closeup of a touch-pad with a digital pen in Aida's hand
Vinay edges closer to her and kisses her forehead.
So sound is perceived at a speed that even the flapping of a fly's wing is audible. For at that time, time can actually be slowing down. He plays with her fingers. VINAY Do you know what'd happen if two people living together were to share two different concepts of time? ALIYA Umm, like a sphere stuck on a plane land, right? (chuckles) Struggling to make everyone understand what "up" means. VINAY Do you know I read somewhere that the male silk worm can smell a single molecule of pheromone. If I had an olfaction as developed, I wouldn't be able to stand your smell... ALIYA You wouldn't be able to stand your own smell with your frequency of showers per month. VINAY No but think of it alright. Even subtle differences like, would I think differently if I had smaller nostrils? Or would I have seen the world differently if I was taller or shorter? ALIYA Or would the world have been a different place if Gandhi was taller or Hitler was shorter? VINAY You know they have actually found a way to prove that reality exists when nobody is looking. ALIYA Well I think it exists and I am never looking. VINAY Bull shit! You're always looking. computer feedback 8-8-9-2-1-1-0-1-0-1-1-0-6-6-6-7-5-8-4-7-6-2-3-2-1-4-8-8-9-1-1-0... The pointer settles on a man's face - he is leaning out of an auto-rickshaw. aliya (O.S.) Is this the coughing man? VINAY (O.S.) Mm hmm. The pointer hovers over a panel in the software, searching for the right option. computer feedback Erase - Gradient - Colour - History - Audio. Pick-pick. Wand. Brush tool... Brush tool... She paints a semi - transparent layer of red over a part of the picture's left side, so that all she covers is a part of the cobbled street. VINAY (O.S.) Are you going to do anything about it? aliya (O.S.) Yeah. She cycles through the menu bar. computer feedback File... edit... image... Mode... adjustment... Duplicate... adjustments... Auto... adjust... Auto levels... auto contra... Brightness. VINAY (O.S.) What are you doing? She adjusts the brightness through a slider. CoMPUTER FEEDBACK Negative eight. Vinay (O.S.) Hmm... that looks nice. Vinay and Aliya are revealed with their backs to the camera at a partially left profile. Aliya is fair and medium built with wavy shoulder length hair. Vinay is darker, sports an unkempt stubble and has an unruly head of hair that is slightly shorter than his girlfriend's. They sit at a large table upon which a printer, a set of speakers and assorted stationery are visible. He has his arm casually draped over her shoulder. She lightly clasps his hand in response. aliya But which one do you like better ? This one or... ComPUTER FEEDBACK Edit... Undo. AlIYA ...this one? VINAY Show me again. ComPUTER FEEDBACK Edit... Redo. ViNAY Hmm... that looks better. Do you want the background so dark? aliya Yeah. Aliya processes a print of the photograph through an etching machine. She traces the texture and lines of the resulting etch with her finger - it's friction producing a crisp sand-papered sound.

ViewItem&item=360198390884&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123 The problem is no manufacturer lists these boards and which PSU fits on it and what cpu's is unclear. that's not a good way to build a cluster huh? well suppose there is a psu that works, then that's ideal to build a cluster with. those barcelona cores do like $40 - $90 a piece on ebay now. So most expensive part of the machine is the DDR2- ECC-reg ram. Some 'cheap offers' on ebay regrettably are not ecc-reg despite what the description. For the coming time of course pricewise nothing beats 16 core AMD's. Those cpu's way faster than i had thought. Intel is too expensive second hand simply and always will be, as they are very good in marketing their hardware as being fast, despite that already for like half a decade they have no good 4 socket platform getting sold (if we forget about Dunnington - that thing is too expensive anyway still so let's forget about Dunnington). intel and amd seem to have canned all type of new cpu's. i read now nehalem-ex is just 6 cores, no longer 8 and 2.26Ghz, so that's not so interesting as IPC wise for well written software you can mathematical prove that AMD is nearly same speed. If intel has that problem i suppose amd won't have a 12 core version of their chip any soon, besides those are like $2k a piece the highend versions. Too much. At least for my software the barcelona's are way faster than i had thought. DDR3 is a lot faster latency of course than DDR2, but the total cpu speed is what counts in first place and the price you can get it for. Considering testreports of those 8 core cpu's i guess we won't see them soon. What was it 700mm^2? They can't produce those in times like this i guess. Too expensive, no company wants to buy that. So hence my quest for cheap alternatives :) sorry for off-topic posting. guess though more of you are looking for cheap clusters. Seems NASA has to size down also nowadays, so no more intel hardware for it in future either i bet. Vincent

Archive of the ground-breaking magazine, published 1945-1967, that created the Case Study House program.http://www.artsandarchitecture.com
The Bauhaus Archive / Museum of Design in Berlin is concerned with the research and presentation of the history and impact of the Bauhaus (1919-1933), the most important school of architecture, design, and art of the 20th century.
It is the most complete existing collection focused on the history of the school and all aspects of its work and is accessible to all. The collection is housed in a building drafted by Walter Gropius, the founder of the school.
The Chicago Architects Oral History Project documents the contributions of architects to Chicago during the 20th century. Included in the collection are Skidmore, Owings & Merrill partners and associates, students and colleagues of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, members of the Chicago Seven, principals of second- and third-generation architectural and engineering firms, and architects who defy classification. The work described in these interviews ranges from suburban homes to urban skyscrapers to institutional and public buildings and beyond. Most of the oral histories also provide a perspective on American architectural education, especially the influences of the Beaux-Arts and Bauhaus curricula. In addition, many of the interviewees speak of important collaborations with internationally renowned artists and architects on projects in Chicago and throughout the world.http://www.artic.edu/aic/libraries/caohp
The Marcel Breuer papers span the years 1920 to 1986 and measure 37.6 linear feet. They consist of biographical material, correspondence, business and financial records, interviews, notes, writings, sketches, project files, exhibition files, photographs, and printed material that document Breuer's career as an architect and designer. This material reflects the prolificacy and diversity of his creations, from tubular steel chairs to private residences, college campuses, factories, department stores, and international, municipal, and corporate headquarters and complexes.http://www.aaa.si.edu/collections/marcel-breuer-papers-5596

Government Entities
Originally published in the fall of 2003, this Study by the U.S. General Services Administration focuses on the postwar architectural legacy of its building program. The study was updated and reprinted in March 2006. A PDF may be downloaded online.http://www.gsa.gov/graphics/pbs/GEMbook.pdf
Established in 1949, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) undertook more than 700 building projects across the country during its first three decades. This period of extensive federal growth coincided with the second wave of the Modern movement, with architects exploring technological advances with creativity and optimism.
GSA's most noted Modern buildings stand as striking landmarks designed by master architects. But economic goals often took precedence over architectural distinction, and the majority of 1950s, 60s, and 70s federal buildings reflect typical office design of the period.
In 2007, as part of the Historic Building Poster & Brochures Series, GSA issued a special set of posters and brochures highlighting selected federal modern-era buildings.
The Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS) and the Historic American Engineering Record (HAER) collections are among the largest and most heavily used in the Prints and Photographs Division of the Library of Congress. Since 2000, documentation from the Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS) has been added to the holdings. The collections document achievements in architecture, engineering, and design in the United States and its territories.http://www.memory.loc.gov/ammem/collections/habs_haer
From its founding in 1919 until its forcible closure by the Nazis in 1933, the multi-disciplinary design workshop known as the Bauhaus attracted an amazing roster of faculty and students - Anni and Josef Albers, Herbert Bayer, Marcel Breuer, Lyonel Feininger, Walter Gropius, Johannes Itten, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and László Moholy-Nagy. Most of these luminaries resettled in America, where they established new design schools and trained generations of students.
This documentary by Cliofilm traces the history of the Bauhaus and includes interviews with Anni Albers, Edward Larabee Barnes, James Ingo Freed, Bertrand Goldberg, Michael Graves, Helmut Jahn, Sidney Janis, Philip Johnson, Gyorgy Kepes, I.M. Pei, Stanley Tigerman, and Tom Wolfe.http://www.mindspring.com/~cliofilm/
Metropolis Magazine produced this video prior to the impending demolition of Paul Rudolph's Riverview High School. The video's focus on the design ingenuity of the Sarasota School of architects - including day-lighting, natural ventilation, sun-screens, and shade-giving plantings - emphasizes the regional sensitivity of modern architecture and the importance of its legacy.http://vimeo.com/9760064

Creating a new Graph
Custom Graphs
The world wide administrative data built into STEM is represented as a graph. It is also possible for users to create their own custom graphs using the new graph wizard. The New Graph wizard supports user creation of custom lattices based on a set of "Graph Generators". A graph generator is a pluggable component able to generate a graph (a collection of nodes and edges) either algorithmically or from an external file. Currently, we have implemented an abstract Lattice Graph Generator with a Square Lattice Implementation. A user can specify the size of the lattice as well as several options for how the nearest neighbor (Common Border) are organized. In the future we plan to also support creating a New Graph From File.A graph generator can also be used to create a collection of edges (or other graph components) that an be optionally added to another graph. To use this feature, begin by launching the new graph wizard.
Button to launch the New Graph Wizard
Creating a Square Lattice Graph
This wizard makes it possible to study the propagation of a disease model on (for example) a simple lattice instead of the more complex geographical administrative divisions.
1) Click on New Graph
2) Name your project
3) Click on TestSquareLattice
4) Specify the size of the lattice
5) Select from the options available how you want the nearest neighbor mixing edges to be organized
6) Click "Finished"
save your work at this point by hitting <ctrl>S
In the future we plan to also support creating a New Graph From File.
Creating a Graph of Migration Edges
See also Migration Edges: Given an existing graph, another graph generator allows a user to create a graph of components that may be (optionally) added to the existing graph. For example, the Migration Edge Graph Generator will create a graph of migration edges. If these are then added to a model containing the original graph, migration of a population will be enabled. Migration edges are created for a specified population and, at the current time, with a single migration rate. If no location is specified, a migration edge is created for every physically adjacent region of node within a graph. If a location is specified, migration edges are created for every physically adjacent region the selected node contains. For example, give a graph of the United States, specifying California would create migration edges for every county in California. In the future we will provide a graphical editor to allow creation of specific edges.
Migration Edge Graph Generator
