text: Milk Rout Ending on Worst N.Z. Drought in 30 Years April 2, 2013 05:34 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Bloomberg Email Milk futures are poised to end their longest slump since 2008 as New Zealand's reduced milk output forces China and other buyers to import more from the U.S. Milk futures are poised to end their longest slump since 2008 in Chicago as drought reduces production in New Zealand, the largest exporter, forcing China and other buyers to import more from the U.S. Overseas shipments may rise 5 percent this year from an all-time high in 2012, the Arlington, Virginia-based U.S. Dairy Export Council predicts. Futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange will jump as much as 18 percent to $20.50 per 100 pounds by year-end, the highest since December, according to the median of 10 analyst estimates in a Bloomberg survey. As global demand for imports expands, output is dropping among all the top exporters except Brazil and the U.S., Rabobank estimates. The worst drought in three decades already drove milk-powder prices to a record in New Zealand, where production may be 20 percent lower than a year earlier for another six months, the bank says. Dairy costs tracked by the United Nations reached a 13-month high in February, even as its index of 55 foods retreated to an eight-month low. "If New Zealand doesn't have product, and they're the largest exporter to Asia, they're going to have to buy it from us," said Shawn Hackett, the president of Boynton Beach, Florida-based Hackett Financial Advisers Inc., predicting prices as high as $25 by the end of the year. "It's setting up for a very, very tight exportable supply situation." New Zealand's Drought Class III milk, used to make cheese, rose 1.8 percent to $17.29 since Feb. 28, after dropping four straight months. The Standard & Poor's GSCI Agriculture Index of eight commodities slid 2.2 percent this month, as the MSCI All-Country World Index of equities gained 1.4 percent. Treasuries returned 0.2 percent, a Bank of America Corp. index shows. New Zealand declared a drought across all of North Island, which accounts for 61 percent of the nation's output, on March 15. The dryness may cost the economy NZ$2 billion ($1.7 billion), the government estimates. Whole-milk powder at the GlobalDairyTrade auction in New Zealand rose to a record $5,313 a metric ton on March 19, according to Auckland-based Fonterra Cooperative Group Ltd., the world's largest dairy exporter. The price is used as a global benchmark. Milk collection will finish "in line" with last season, Fonterra said March 27, lowering its previous forecast for a 1 percent gain. China will import 12 percent more whole-milk powder and 18 percent more skimmed-milk powder this year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates. While New Zealand was expected to be the main beneficiary of that growth, the U.S. has a "strong foothold" in Asia, the USDA said in a December report. The last time a drought threatened to cut supplies from New Zealand and Australia in 2007, Chicago futures reached a record $22.45. Next Season The impact on New Zealand's output this year may be less than forecast because the dry spell came late in the season, said Dermot Carey, a senior vice president at the ingredients division of Darigold Inc., a Seattle-based farmer-owned dairy processor. To have a bigger impact, the drought would need to last into the next season, he said. That would mean extending through June. Slowing economic growth also may limit demand for milk. The International Monetary Fund said Feb. 28 that government spending cuts will curb expansion in the U.S., where data from Dairy Management Inc. and Symphony IRI Group show retail sales of milk fell almost 3 percent in the latest 52-week period. Dairy Management Chief Executive Officer Tom Gallagher said sales to some retailers are down 8 percent to 10 percent. Rising exports and prices are an incentive for U.S. farmers to boost production, said Chip Whalen, a vice president at Chicago-based Commodity & Ingredient Hedging LLC, which advises clients including dairy producers on managing margins. Younger Herds Domestic output will rise 0.8 percent to 201.9 billion pounds this year, with each cow producing 21,960 pounds, or 1.2 percent more, the USDA estimates. Technology and breeding have boosted the number of female calves, and farmers maintain young herds by slaughtering older cows when their output drops. The U.S. dairy industry sold more than 13 percent of its milk-solid production last year to overseas buyers, from 3.7 percent in 1996, according to the export council. U.S. dairy exports reached a record $5.21 billion in 2012. "Without that export market we'd be swimming in milk," said Ed Schoen, 67, who keeps 180 cows on his farm near Phelps, New York. "We've got about 13, 14 pounds out of every 100 pounds of our milk going overseas. That's one out of every seven tractor trailers that we see going to down the road. Without that, our market would be pretty soft for milk." Export Council Mexico, China, Canada, Japan and South Korea increased purchases from the U.S. last year. The value of U.S. shipments to China, the biggest buyer of whole-milk powder, may more than double by 2017, according to the export council. Last year's U.S. drought, the worst since the 1930s, spurred a reduction in the number of milk cows as feed costs surged. The herd will shrink 0.4 percent this year to 9.195 million head, according to the USDA. While corn prices are 13 percent below the all-time high of $8.49 a bushel in August, some dairies are still losing money, according to Rabobank. U.S. consumers may pay as much as 4.5 percent more for dairy products this year, compared with an average of as much as 4 percent across all food groups, according to the USDA. Darden Restaurants Inc., the operator of the Red Lobster, Olive Garden and LongHorn Steakhouse chains, expects dairy costs to be higher in its fiscal year that starts May 27. Prices are rising because of insufficient U.S. milk production and export demand, Jim Lawrence, the chief supply-chain officer for the Orlando, Florida-based company, said during an analyst and investor meeting Feb. 26. U.S. Plants Dairy prices aren't coming down significantly any time soon, Paul Smucker Wagstaff, the president of U.S. retail consumer foods at Orville, Ohio-based J.M. Smucker Co., said during an earnings conference call Feb. 15. Darigold, the Seattle milk processor, expects exports to rise 5 percent this year, driven by demand from Asia, according to Carey. The company produces more than 8.5 billion pounds of raw milk a year at its 10 U.S. plants, he said. The company's exports last year represented 23 percent of all U.S. American- style cheese exports and 24 percent of U.S. milk-powder shipments, the senior vice president said. Chinese imports of whole-milk powder will reach 410,000 tons this year, compared with 11,000 tons two decades ago, the USDA estimates. Global purchases will be 837,000 tons in 2013, from 569,000 tons in 1993. "You're seeing demand growth exceed supplies available year over year," said Derik Robinson, the chief financial officer of High Desert Milk in Burley, Idaho, which exports about 30 million pounds of milk powder a year. "Milk is becoming an important source of protein in the diets of a lot of different countries." Back to news

LOS ANGELES — He was Donald Tokowitz. She was Maria Vanessa Perez. Now they are Donald Sterling and V. Stiviano — embroiled in a saga that has led to the Los Angeles Clippers owner banned for life from the NBA — and they changed their names for different reasons, according to court records obtained by USA TODAY Sports.
Sterling did it at the age of 25, and cited the difficulty his friends had pronouncing Tokowitz and the belief he would benefit financially from the name Sterling as reasons for the name change, according to the petition filed with the state superior court Dec. 9, 1959.
STERLING: Banned from NBA for life
His wife, Rochelle, was part of the petition that states the couple believed changing their last name from Tokowitz to Sterling "would be a great advantage to them in avoiding confusion among their friends and of pecuniary benefit to them regarding matters of business.''
The court petition was granted.
MORE: Sterling could use divorce to avoid Clippers sale
V. Stiviano petitioned to have her name changed in 2010 because she hadn't "yet been fully accepted because of my race" among considerations. She described herself as of "mixed" race on the audiotaped conversation with Sterling during which he made racist comments that led to his being banned from the NBA.
MORE: V. Stiviano attended same H.S. as Donald, Rochelle Sterling
Criminal history is reviewed as part of name-change petitions, and at the time Stiviano's petition had been filed, she had been arrested three times on the following charges:
— Petty theft on Oct. 18, 2002. She was sentenced to 12 months probation and given a $150 fine or five days in jail.
— Petty theft on Jan. 29, 2004. She was sentenced to two years probation and one day in jail.
— Possession of a controlled substance. Information about the disposition of the case could not be obtained.
Nine months after the drug charges, her name-change petition was granted.

The Browns set their 75-man roster on Tuesday, but it didn't take long for them to shuffle it up.
The Browns announced Wednesday that they have claimed linebacker Eric Martin off of waivers from the Saints. They waived cornerback Trevin Wade to make room for Martin on the roster.
Martin signed with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Nebraska and drew some good early notices in Saints camp. His play in the preseason wasn't as impressive, however, and the Saints cut ties with him despite being very thin at linebacker. The Browns saw something they liked, though, and Martin is expected to be available for Thursday's preseason finale against the Bears.
Wade was a seventh-round pick last year and he had 17 tackles in 13 games with the team last season. The arrival of Leon McFadden in the draft and Christopher Owens in free agency pushed Wade down the depth chart and a shoulder injury helped seal his fate in Cleveland.

Extensive smoke and water damage in the prayer room at the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo. Fire damage inside the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo. The fire was started in the second-floor prayer room of the center when the room was doused with gasoline and set ablaze. A recently installed sprinkler system upgrade inside the center kicked in, preventing additional fire damage, but with the system and water from fire crews, damage to the center is significant.

Randolph Linn was "no better than the terrorists or extremists" that he said he was fighting against when he drove from his Indiana home to the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo and set fire to the place of worship, a federal judge said Wednesday.
"When you went through that door, you did not attack extremists or terrorists. Instead, you attacked the place where families come to pray," Judge Jack Zouhary said. " … Ironically, it's your own violence that was sinful and evil."
Linn, 52, of St. Joe, Ind., pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to one count each of intentionally defacing, damaging, and destroying religious property; using a fire to commit a felony; and using and carrying a firearm to commit a crime of violence. As part of a binding plea agreement accepted in court, he will be ordered to serve 20 years in prison when sentenced April 16 and will be required to pay restitution to the mosque.
Linn admitted he set fire to the rug in the prayer room at the mosque on Sept. 30 after walking through the building with a gun to check for people in each room. He said he was motivated to drive the nearly two hours from his Indiana home to the Perrysburg mosque "to get some payback" for Americans who had been killed.
When questioned by Judge Zouhary, Linn acknowledged he personally did not know anyone of the Islamic faith but said he believed what he saw of extremists on news programs.
"I know they don't believe in Jesus Christ as the Savior," he told the judge.
"There are others who don't believe in Jesus Christ," Judge Zouhary responded.
"They're not going around killing us," Linn said.
Authorities said Linn drove his vehicle containing several firearms and three gas containers into Ohio.
He stopped at a gas station in Ridgeville Corners to fill the containers and then continued on to the mosque on Schneider Road. Once there, Linn walked around the building in an attempt to gain entry.
He found a door open and, with a gun in his hand, entered the building and checked all the rooms, Assistant U.S. Attorney Ava Dusten said in court.
After walking through the building, Linn went to his vehicle to retrieve a gas can and returned to the prayer room, where he poured gasoline on the rug.
"He then set fire to the prayer rug," Ms. Dusten said.
Linn said he had consumed 45 beers over a period of six or seven hours before he "jumped up" and drove to Ohio. He told the judge that he "definitely did not think about it."
Ms. Dusten countered that about two weeks prior to the incident, Linn had, in a conversation with his 20-year-old son, threatened to burn the mosque.
She added that when he was arrested on Oct. 2, in Fort Wayne, Ind., Linn told the arresting officer, "[expletive] those Muslims," and that "They would kill us if they got the chance."
Eight members of the Islamic Center appeared in court Wednesday to watch the proceedings. Mahjabeen Islam, president of the center, said the charges and resulting sentence "send a very loud message to future criminals … that our society will not tolerate hate and violence."
Dr. Islam said that the community has opened its hearts to those who lost their place of worship and that they continue to meet and pray. The school has also been relocated.
She said that it was "heart-wrenching" to hear Linn speak, especially about his views on the Islamic faith.
"His hate was palpable," she said. "He pleaded guilty but he didn't seem contrite."
Dr. Islam said that most of the 60,000-square-foot building was damaged by either water or smoke. Repairs are to be completed March 31, she said.
In the upcoming months, a full restitution amount will be determined.

After a long holdout, Buffalo Bills safety Jairus Byrd signed a one-year franchise tender Tuesday. The team announced the signing in a press release after practice was over.
After a long holdout, Buffalo Bills safety Jairus Byrd signed a one-year franchise tender Tuesday. The team announced the signing in a press release after practice was over.
The Bills designated Byrd as their franchise player on March 1, and the two parties failed to negotiate a long-term contract extension by the July 15 deadline.
The two-time Pro Bowler started every game for Buffalo in 2012 and finished with 76 tackles and five interceptions.
Bradham faces charges: The Bills could be without one of their starting linebackers to start the 2013 season. Nigel Bradham was charged with unlawful possession of marijuana after a traffic stop in Tonawanda on Saturday.
The player was stopped at about 2 a.m. after an officer smelled marijuana, town of Tonawanda Police Lt. Nicholas Bado said. Bradham allegedly turned over a bag containing a small amount of the drug. There was no indication he had been using it while driving, Bado said.
"It's just a legal issue, I made a mistake, that was it," Bradham said.
Buffalo General Manager Doug Whaley said the team is waiting for the National Football League to make a ruling on the incident since it's a violation of the personal conduct rule
"Obviously its very disappointing," Bills coach Doug Marrone said. "We take those type of things very seriously. ... We do so much with our players about being a pro, what the NFL shield means, obviously what it means to be a Bill and we expect our players to make good choices in their life and obviously Nigel is disappointed in his choices."
Gilmore's toe OK: Cornerback Stephon Gilmore left practice to have trainers examine a toe on his right foot. He watched the remainder of the session from the sideline, and Marrone didn't anticipate the injury being a problem going forward.
Dareus gets pick six: Defensive lineman Marcell Dareus intercepted a tipped ball during team work and ran it back for a touchdown. Marrone gave him a hard time about the return.
"I said, 'What are the odds of you going right back in there and playing the next play? Do I need to get you a trainer?'" the coach said. "He said, 'I'm ready to go, but I just scored a touchdown. Don't they have to kick off?'"
Ross leaves to welcome baby: Marrone allowed defensive lineman Jay Ross to leave training camp because his wife was expecting to have a baby.
Buffalo also waived guard Keith Williams. He was designated as waived/injured.

Genetic testing has been unable to link the 1959 Walker family murders in Osprey to a similar Kansas murder spree from 'In Cold Blood' fame
A resolution in the 53-year-old murder of an Osprey family appears increasingly unlikely, following continuing delays and ambiguous results from DNA tests on the remains of two notorious killers depicted in the book and movie "In Cold Blood."
It has been six months since authorities exhumed the bodies of the pair, Perry Smith and Dick Hickock, from the Kansas cemetery where they had been buried since their 1965 execution for the murder of the Clutter family.
The Clutters were killed a month before the Walkers, including Christine, 24, Cliff, 25, and their children, Jimmie, 3, and Debbie, who was almost 2, when they were killed in their home.
Despite the growing angst of family members and local law enforcement, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation reports that the DNA tests on a potential match between the Kansas killers and evidence from the Osprey crime scene in 1959 is "inconclusive."
Last month, the KBI said the DNA test results would be ready in eight to 10 days. At the time, Deputy KBI Director Kyle Smith said if results were inconclusive, the tests would be run again.
"At some point, you just have to call it," he said in April. He would not say with more certainty what the results were likely to reveal.
The agency now has no timetable for when testing will be finished, but Smith said more testing would be done. "The analysis is not completed," Smith told The Associated Press. "We are still trying."
Attempts to reach Smith for comment in Kansas were unsuccessful.
Smith said the KBI would eventually turn over results of the DNA tests to Florida officials, who will announce any links between the cases.
Sarasota County cold- case detectives sought the exhumation after going over the case for years.
Shortly after the Clutter slayings, Smith and Hickock fled Kansas and spent some time in Florida, leading to speculation that they might have had a role in the murders of the Walkers, who grew up in the small town of Arcadia in DeSoto County.
Family members, who have lived for years with no answers in the case, are tired of waiting.
"It's just more frustration," said Pat Myers of Lake Placid, the half-brother of Christine, who was raped, beaten and shot to death.
Christine's husband and two children were also shot. The youngest child was drowned in a bathtub.
Christine was a popular high school majorette, and Cliff, who participated in the town's rodeo, worked as a ranch hand.
Family members had hoped DNA results would bring answers, but the protracted wait makes that seem less likely.
"Every time we talk to the Sheriff's Office, it's next week, next week, next week," Myers said Wednesday.
Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Wendy Rose said officials, too, are awaiting the results.
"It's science, and there's no timeframe on science," she said.
However, Rose said she has yet to hear an explanation from Kansas authorities about why they recently predicted a more rapid conclusion.
"They can't explain to me why they said that," she said.
Wendi Cascarella, Christine Walker's niece, said the DNA results are irrelevant to her.
"I know in my heart they did it," she said, referring to Smith and Hickock. "I don't think there's anything to convince me otherwise unless there's new evidence."
Cascarella said her generation should be the last to worry about what happened.
"Hopefully, it stops now," she said.
Associated Press
TOPEKA, Kan. -- DNA testing so far has been inconclusive on whether two men executed in Kansas for the 1959 killings that inspired the book "In Cold Blood" can also be linked to the unsolved murders of a Florida family weeks later, a senior investigator said Wednesday.
Kansas Bureau of Investigation Deputy Director Kyle Smith said the agency will continue testing material collected from the remains of convicted murderers Richard Hickock and Perry Smith. Investigators believe the men fled to Florida after killing the Clutter family in a gruesome case later documented by Truman Capote in his genre-forming classic.
"The analysis is not completed," Kyle Smith told The Associated Press. "We are still trying."
The KBI initially projected it would have definitive results from the DNA early this month, but the agency now has no timetable for when the testing will be complete.
"Justice never rests," Smith said.
Hickock and Perry Smith were hanged in 1965 in Kansas for the killings of Herb Clutter, his wife and two of their children in the family's farmhouse outside the southwest Kansas town of Holcomb.
The hunt for the killers mesmerized the nation and drew journalists from across the U.S. to the small farming town. Capote's book takes readers through the killings, Hickock's and Perry Smith's trial and their execution. It is celebrated because it reads like a novel; scholars have long debated its accuracy.
Attention quickly turned to Hickock and Perry Smith when, only weeks after the Kansas killings, a Florida family was murdered. Cliff Walker and his wife, Christine, along with their two small children, were killed in their home in Osprey, Fla., south of Sarasota. The case was never solved.
Investigators believed that Hickock and Smith fled to Florida after killing the Clutter family, then traveled to Las Vegas where they were captured. They were cleared of the Walker murders by a lie detector test — but in 1987, a polygraph expert declared that such tests were worthless in the 1960s. Christine Walker also had been raped, so Florida authorities sought a comparison to a DNA profile from semen on her clothing to the DNA profiles taken from the remains of Hickock and Smith.
The convicted murderers were buried in a cemetery in Lansing, near the state prison in Kansas where they were hanged. Kansas officials had their remains exhumed in December so state investigators could collect bone fragments for DNA samples.
Kyle Smith said the KBI will eventually turn over results of the DNA tests to Florida officials who will announce any links between the cases.
"In Cold Blood" alludes to the Walker killings in a short passage; Capote incorrectly states that the murders occurred near Tallahassee, Fla., about five hours north of the actual scene. He also relates a conversation between Hickock and Smith on a beach in Miami, and has Smith speculating that "a lunatic" copied the Kansas killings. The book says that in reply, Hickock "shrugged and grinned and trotted down to the ocean's edge."
Authorities in Florida have said Hickock and Smith were spotted at least a dozen times from Tallahassee to Miami, and in between. On the day of the Walker murders, authorities have said, Hickock and Smith bought items at a Sarasota department store.
The Sarasota County Sheriff's detective who began re-investigating the Walker deaths in 2007 said the Walkers had been considering buying a 1956 Chevy Bel Air, the kind of car Hickock and Smith were driving through Florida.

the cqstjjf a train i at the time when the first open couvt of law was established in russia a lady dressed with tbe utmost elegance was walking on tlie moscow promenade lean ing upon her husband's arm and letting the long train of her rich dress sweep the dust and dirt of the street a young officer coming hastily from a side street was so careless as to catch one of his spurs in the lady's train and in an instant a great piece was torn out of the costly but frail material of the dress i wg a thousand pardons ma dame said the officer with a polite bow ; and then was about passing on when he was detained by the lady's husband you have insulted my wife nothing was further from my intention : sir your wife's long dress is to blame for i the accident wliich i sincerely regret j and i beg you once more to receive my | apologies for any carelessness on my part • thereupon he attempted to hasten on yon shall not escape so said the lady with her head thrown back in a spirited way to-day is the first time i have worn tiiis dress and it cost two bundled i rubies which you must make good my dear madame i beg you not to de ' tain me i am obliged to go on duty at once as to the two hundred rubies i really can not help the length of your : dress yet i beg your pardon for not bav . iug been more cautious you shall not stir sir that you are | obliged to go on duty is nothing to us | my wife is right ; tbe dress must be made i good the officer's lace grew pale you force me to break through the i rules of tlie service and i shall receive | punishment pay t two hundred rubies and you i aie free the quickly changing color in tbe young man's face betrayed how inwardly dis ! tin bed be was but stepping close up to them both he said with apparent sclf conimand : you will renounce your claim when i tell you that i am a — a — poor man who litis nothing to live on but his officer's pay and the amount of that pay hardly reach es tlie sum of two hundred rubies in a whole year i can therefore make no amends for the misfortune except by again lj«*.sj.^ci 11 t your pardon i)h ! anybody could say all tliat ; but we'll see if its true ; we'll find out if you have nothing but your pay i declare my self not satisfied with your excuses and i demand my money persisted tbe lady iti the hard voice of a thoroughly uufeel wolllmll that is true — you are right the bus added dutifully supporting ber by good luck we bave the open court now just in session go with us before the judge and he will decide the matter all further protestation on the officer's part that he was poor that he was expect ed on duty and so forth did not help matters hit of respect for bis uniform and to avoid an open sceneo he had to go with them to the court room where the gallery was densely packed with a crowd of people alter waiting some time the lady had leave to make her complaint what have you t;i answer to this com plaint ?' said the judge turning to the officer who seemed embarrassed and half in despair on the whole very little as the late ness of the hour and being required on duty compelled me to hurry i did not notice the lady's train which wa6 drag ging on the ground i caught one of my spurs in it and had the misfortune to tear the dress madame would not receive my excuses but perhaps now she might find herself more disposed to forgiveness when i again declare so help me god tliat i committed this awkward blunder without any mischievous intention and i earn estly beg that she will pardon me a murmur ran through the gallery evidently from the people taking sides with hedefendant,and against long trains in general and the lady in particular the judge called to order and asked : are you satisfied with the defendant explanation ?' not at all satisfied i demand two hundred rubies in payment for my torn dress defendant will you pay this sum v i would have paid it long before this had i been in a position to do so i'n fortunately i am poor my pay as an officer is till i have to live on you hear complainant that the de fendant is not able to pay the sum you demand of him do you still wish the complaint to stand v an unbroken stillness reigned through out the hall and the young officer's breath could be heard coming hard i wish it to stand the law shall give me my rights there ran through the rows of people a murmur of indignation that sounded like a rushing of water consider complainant the consequen ces of your demand the defendant can i be punished only through being deprived of his personal liberty and by that you could obtain no satisfaction whilo to the defendant it might prove the greatest in jury to his rank and position asau officer and especially as he is an officer who is poor and dependent upon hi pay do you still insist upon your complaint ?' i still insist upon it the course the affair was taking seem ed to have become painful to tlie lady's ! husband he spoke with his wife urgent ly but it could be seen by tbe way she held up her head and tbe energy with | which she shook it quite uselessly the judge was just going on further consider i ations of the case when a loud voice was heard from the audience : i i will place the two hundred rubies at the service of the defendant there followed a silence during which a gentleman forced his way through the i crowd and placed himself by the young officer's side sir i am the prince w , and beg you will oblige me by accepting the loan ' of the two hundred rubies in question prince i am not worthy of your kind : ness for i don't know if i sliall ever be able to pay the loan answered the young man in a voice tremulous with emotion take the money at all _ rents i can i wait until you arc able to return it thereupon the prince held out two notes of a hundred rubies each and coining close up to him whispered a few words very softly there was a sudden lighting up of i the officer's face he immediately took the two notes and turning toward the lady banded them to her with a polite bow i hope madame that you are satisfied with a malicious smile she reached out her band for the money yes ; now i am satisfied with a scornful glance over the crowd of spectators slu prepared to leave the court-room on her husband's arm stop madame said the officer who bad suddenly become like another man with a firm and confident manner what do you want v the look that tho young woman cast upon bim was as insulting as possible i want my dress he answered with a slight but still perfectly polite bow give me your address and i will send it to you oh no my dear madame i am in the habit of taking my purchases with me at i once favor ine with the dress imme diately a shout of approbation came from tlie gallery *( irder !' cried the judge what an insane demand !' said the lady's husband my wife can not undress here.1 1 have nothing to do with you sir in this matter but only with the complainant i be so good madame as to give me the dress immediately i am in a great hur ry ; my affairs are urgent and i cau uot wait a moment longer the pleasure of the audience at the ex pense of the lady increased with every wind until it was hard to enforce any approach to quiet so that either party could be heard uo not jest any more about iti i will hurry and send you the dress as soon as possible i am not jesting i demand from the representative of the law my own prop erty—that dress said the officer raising his voice the judge thus appealed to decided promptly • the officer is right madame you are obliged to hand him over the dress on the spot i can't undress myself here before all these people and go home without any dress on said the young woman with anger and with tears you should have thought of that soon er now you have no time to lose eith er give up the dress of your own accord — ' a nod that could not be misinterpreted brought to the lady's side two officers ol justice who seemed about to take upon themselves the office of my lady's maid take your money back and leave me my dress oh no madame that dress is now worth more than two hundred rubies to uie how much do you ask for it v two thousand rubies said the officer firmly i will pay the sum the weeping lady's husband responded promptly i have here five bundled rubies give me pen and paper and i will write an order upon my banker for the remaining fifteen bun die n after he had written the

speaker i shall vote against con curring in this decision of tbe commission because it was not reached and rendered on that lofty plan of equity and candor upon which the country expected the tribunal to act when it was created when this great plan for settling the pending dispute as to the presidency was devised and adopted this house and the country and the world expected that the question would be con sidered and decided upon the broadest principles of truth and right and not up on legal quibbles 1 am proud of the position of my party in this crisis we go before the electoral commission nnd say if we have the presidency upon the merits of the case give it to us but not otherwise the other party go tliere and say in substance through their coun sel no matter how fraudulent no mat ter how false if there is any legal tech nicality upon which you can give us the presidency then we want the presidency adjudged to us without inquiring as to what was the true voice of the people the world will take notice of tlie differ ence in the moral attitude of these two parties in this great controversy one asks that it lie decided upon the very right and truth of the matter * the other says jive us success by any dodge necessary to win a great man once said that he would rather be right than be president i would rather see my party do right than win the presidency if the victory should finally be awarded to our adversaries by the system of special pleading together with the refusal to look at the bottom facts which h-t led to this decision iu tho florida case i say take the presidency and welcome we scorn to have on it snch terras the man who sliall consent to receive that exalted office under such a decision and the members of the com mission who shall give tliat decision upon such principles will write themselves down in history m deeply disgraced that the hand of resurrection can-never reach them to restore them again to the respect of mankind and the party which accepts victory by such means will find its cup of fancied triumph contains only the bitter ness and poison of ultimate ruin and eternal dishonor sir this crisis will always be distin guished by some extraordinary feature the first is unparalled villainy of tbe con spiracy that brought the country into difficulty ; the next is the sublime spirit of moderation conservatism and magnanim ity by whicli a peaceable way was devised i to get tbe country out of the difficulty ; aud i did trust that tli is spirit would be responded to and further illustrated by tbe commission itself showing tha it could meet this issue on the high patriotic basis of equity and impartially i trust that they will yet do it i have not yet lost hope in the success which our good cause deserves nor have i yet withdrawn all faith in the commissioners under the great responsibility wliich rests upon them and with tin eyes of the world and of posterity looking at them i shall not be lieve until it is done that they will finally decide this case upon the narrow anil technical grounds upon which they seem as yet to be standing i hope the voice of ibis house to-day emphatically pronouncing its non-concur rence in their judgment on the florida case may be heard and received by tbem as an earnest call to the commission for tbe sake id liberty and country to rise to the grandeur of the occasion and decide the presidency so that the conscience of the country and mankind will be satified with the decision to do this they must look at everything wliich history will look at in making up its final verdict on this case and on the actors in this great crisis let them inquire into the facts let them search for truth as for hid treas ure let them expose fraud and annual every result founded on fraud thus on ly can they satisfy public opinion preserve the good mime of our institutions and give genuine contentment to the country btwmsnmmmmssmswsnmmwkmsmsnmasmsmsssmssa*msusmssmams*a opening

Good morning.
The specter of the Fed tapping the brakes on liquidity sent shivers into the markets yesterday.
The S&P endured its biggest hit so far this year, the fear gauge spiked 19% and gold gagged on its "death cross." And here we are, a day later, still wading through tightening fears, left to pick up the pieces and try to read into what's next. Deep breath. Serenity now.
The market needed to take a break. Gather itself for a continued push higher. Merely a healthy detour on a long road to profits. A few unsettling words from the Fed is but a temporary blip. Right? Well, the bulls, for the most part, remain unfettered, except for one little thing. Stocks look like they're going to get chewed up again today.
It wasn't too long ago — like, uh, yesterday — that we told you all about how we're seeing a situation that's a "nirvana" for stocks.
And it may well be, but the bears have a spring in their step. It could be now or never for a swift correction, if our "call of the day" has it pegged right. Strong results on the earnings front or some upbeat economic news might be the only things standing in the way of another dreary session for equity markets, though it's too late for Asia.
Key market gauges: Gold /quotes/zigman/8702781 GCJ3 continues its precipitous tumble, drifting further and further away from the key $1,600-an-ounce level amid what one HSBC analyst is calling "heavy macro-hedge-fund liquidation."
On the equity front, there's no bounce in the making at this point, either. Futures on the Dow /quotes/zigman/9049316 YMH3 and the S&P /quotes/zigman/8751039 ESH3 are setting up for a dismal opening, while Europe /quotes/zigman/2380150 XX:SXXP is awash in red ink in the wake of a PMI report that's signalling a steeper downturn. In Italy, the FTSE MIB /quotes/zigman/1482176 XX:FTSEMIB , despite AC Milan's big victory over FC Barcelona last night, is getting hammered ahead of this weekend's election. Check out Indications.
It wasn't any prettier in Asia /quotes/zigman/6959860 XX:ADOW , where the Shanghai index /quotes/zigman/1859015 CN:000001 was absolutely crushed, down 3%. Read: Asia Markets.
The economy: It's a busy day for data. The Labor Department reported that consumer prices were flat in January, while jobless claims climbed by 20,000 to 362,000, a level that suggests slow but steady improvement in the U.S. labor market. Economists were looking for a rise to 351,000. Later, a preliminary gauge of manufacturing activity followed by three other potentially market moving indicators. Read more about what's on tap, economy-wise.
Earnings: Results from Wal-Mart /quotes/zigman/245476 /quotes/nls/wmt WMT , American International Group /quotes/zigman/557836 /quotes/nls/aig AIG and Hewlett-Packard /quotes/zigman/229301 /quotes/nls/hpq HPQ will be closely eyed throughout the day. Read: Hewlett-Packard earnings are expected to slide.
Wal-Mart's report hit early. The retailing behemoth posted earnings of $1.67 a share to easily beat targets. Revenue rose 3.9% to $127.1 billion. Investors, however, are shying away from the stock a bit after a disappointing outlook.
AIG is worth paying particularly close attention to because, as Zero Hedge points out, it has replaced Apple as "the stock that has suckered in the most hedge fund capital, and where any future growth will depend solely on pulling incremental dumb money in." Apple is now third on the list, also behind Google /quotes/zigman/93888 /quotes/nls/goog GOOG . AIG is in the rise phase right now, just like Apple was. "The fall always follows," Zero Hedge writes.
The buzz: David Einhorn is holding a conference call later today in which he'll chat about his proxy battle with Apple /quotes/zigman/68270 /quotes/nls/aapl AAPL . That's more than enough to keep the company on the radar. "I like that what we are offering is a win-win for everyone," the hedge fund manager told AllThingsD in a midnight chat. "There has been a lot of conflict around why Apple is holding so much cash for a long, long time."
For all the damage control Tesla /quotes/zigman/118681 /quotes/nls/tsla TSLA successfully waged in the wake of the damning, but questionable, New York Times report, it's the earnings, or lack thereof, that's wreaking havoc on the stock in the premarket. The electric car maker posted a wider loss that took the shine off its surging revenue. And the stock is off more than 6% in the wee hours. Check out our live blog.
Other top-trending tickers on StockTwits include Lululemon /quotes/zigman/39660 /quotes/nls/lulu LULU , Priceline /quotes/zigman/90481 /quotes/nls/pcln PCLN , and MasterCard /quotes/zigman/390906 /quotes/nls/ma MA .
The chart of the day: If you're looking for a bounce in the price of gold, consider extending your time line. March, as the chart below shows, is typically a tough month for the precious metal. In the face of "death cross" chatter, gold notched its fifth straight day of losses Wednesday and is weakening even further today. "While I remain a long-term bull on gold prices, I have also come to the realization that gold prices may be locked in a corrective cycle for quite some time," a technical analyst told the Wall Street Journal's MarketBeat blog.
The call of the day: "It's now or never for that long-anticipated equity correction," according to the Global Macro Monitor blog. The post lays out six catalysts that could lead to a sell off, including tightening in China, weakness in housing stocks, sequestration, a nervous Fed, rising gas prices, and just a general sense of overbought equities. But it's not as dire as some, like Paul Farrell, might be calling for. "We expect the correction to be relatively shallow, less than 5%, as many buyers seem to be waiting in the wings ready to pounce," the author wrote.
Random reads: A mob of French Nazis attack Tottenham fans in Lyon. "It's a pretty scary thing when you're confronted by people doing Nazi salutes." Things I learn from the news: Tottenham has a strong Jewish following.
Behold, the all-new PlayStation 4. OK, Sony /quotes/zigman/197524 /quotes/nls/sne SNE didn't actually SHOW us the console, but it spent two hours talking about.
The latest, and weirdest, twist in the whoops-I-accidentally-shot-my-girlfriend-four-times-through-a-door case: The police officer leading the investigation is himself facing criminal charges. Of attempted murder.
'We've got a high-profile shooting case which requires careful handling"no worries, I'll put my worst man on it' #PPDBlue

Oh no. Billy Corgan, the brilliant musician who brought us Siamese Dream, has "fully transitioned from melancholia to infinite sadness." This is hard to watch.
"We're all trapped, left with, at best, the hope that our elites might experience some kind of moral transformation." Hard to imagine that the book is as good as Michael Lewis's review of it. Great read for an ex-pat in London.

Every week I spend some time thumbing through old issues of America. A total of 198 volumes, from 1909 to the present, occupy nearly two full stacks in our editorial office. I am looking for a selection for the feature on our Web site called In These Pages. Every week we post articles from our archives on topics addres-sed in that week's print edition. (Have a look at americamagazine.org/pages.)
As the magazine's online editor, it might seem odd for me to engage in such a backward-looking pursuit. But I relish it. If you're looking for an introduction to the last 100 years of American Catholic history, there are few better places to start. The America archives are a rich resource for all the editors here, and you can often spot one of them perched at a desk in our editorial offices, poring over page after page of yellowing paper.
Sadly this is not an activity that most readers of America are able to enjoy. Sure, some of our loyal readers keep old issues for decades, stacking them in closets or garages. But only a few places—mostly libraries—are home to a full set, and that number is dwindling.
It is no great secret that libraries are slowly discarding their print collections in favor of digital reproductions. A few years ago, in the early days of the Web, we received a few calls from librarians who wondered whether we would like their old volumes of America, since they no longer had use for them. The problem is that digital versions are available for only a relatively few recent years of most print magazines—in the case of America, back to about 1988. That leaves the first 80 years of America's analysis and commentary no longer available in many libraries.
Thus was born the America archives project. Over the past year, we have been cobbling together a full set of volumes for digital scanning. We are grateful to those who have contributed to our collection, in particular the Graymoor Spiritual Life Center in New York and the Jesuit Center in Wernersville, Pa. Thanks to them, and the roomy interior of my dad's old Mercury station wagon, we now have almost an entire set.
Our project is an ambitious one: to scan and index every article, editorial and book review that has appeared in these pages since April 1909. By our rough estimate, that amounts to over 150,000 pages of material. To scan articles, the bindings of each volume must be removed, making them practically unusable after they are scanned. The magazine owns only two full sets of bound issues, which is why we solicited volumes from our readers and friends.
To help us with this project, we have engaged the services of a company that already distributes the last 20 years of America in digitized form to university libraries and other educational institutions. Over the next year or two, they will scan every article in our archives into viewable pages, using the industry-standard portable document format (PDF). They will also be preparing abstracts for each article, a crucial part of the process to facilitate the search for content.
This is an expensive project, but one that we believe will provide a great resource to researchers everywhere, as well as to America readers. To help recoup the considerable cost, we plan to sell individual articles on our Web site for a nominal fee. We will also be applying for grants and seeking the financial assistance of our generous supporters. The highlight of this enterprise is that students and researchers will be able to search our archives through university libraries at no cost using the digital distribution service mentioned above.
As the country's oldest Catholic weekly magazine, America has always been an invaluable tool for researchers. If you want to know how the church grappled with a particular religious or political issue, chances are you will find an answer in our pages. For this, our centennial year, my colleague James T. Keane, S.J., has been editing a selection of our "greatest hits" for reproduction in the print magazine. So far we have highlighted articles by Hilaire Belloc and John Courtney Murray, S.J.; pieces by John F. Kennedy and others are still to come.
Yet these articles provide only a hint of the range of analysis and nuance that have been the hallmark of this magazine for so many years. Want to read the editors on Joe McCarthy, Richard McCormack, S.J., on Humanae Vitae or Andrew Greeley on Bruce Springsteen? For now, you're welcome to visit our offices and peruse our collection. In the not too distant future, we hope, you won't have to travel so far.

Here's an interesting article on conservatives for Obama from the Daily Beast today. Money quote:
Wick Allison, former publisher of National Review under William F. Buckley and current publisher of The American Conservative, also reaffirms his Obama decision, albeit in anguished lukewarm tones. "I will probably vote for Obama, unless I have aGary Johnson–inspiration in the voting booth. (My vote in Texas is wasted anyway.)," Allison wrote in an email. "Romney is the opposite of conservative, with a plan that is fiscally reckless and a foreign policy that is unnecessarily militant. Obama has done about the best that could have been done, considering the united GOP opposition in Congress. My questions about Obamacare and my disappointment that we are not already out of Afghanistan are not enough to make me embrace a candidacy that even George W. Bush would have been repelled by—and, having had time to reflect on his own record, perhaps is."

Kenny Chesney Makes Reaching No. 1 a 'Reality' With Latest Single
Kenny Chesney returns to the top of the country singles charts this week with his latest hit, 'Reality.' The tune marks Chesney's 23rd career chart-topper and the fourth from his current album, 'Hemingway's Whiskey.' Previous No. 1 hits from that album include 'The Boys of Fall,' 'Somewhere With You' and 'Live a Little.'
'Reality' is a song Chesney co-wrote with hit songwriter Brett James on the same writing trip that the two hashed out another No. 1 song for the singer, titled 'Out Last Night.' The concept for 'Reality' was an idea that Chesney had tucked away for some time, and things fell into place when he and James began writing that particular day.
"In Kenny's perspective, he sees that every night at his shows … people come to his shows to escape reality," James recently told Taste of Country. "We wrote this song on Kenny's deck looking at the ocean at his island house. We were really trying to put ourselves in situation and find the escape in life. That's where this song started."
Coming up on the No. 1 position behind Chesney are hits from Dierks Bentley ('Home'), Jake Owen ('Alone With You'), Taylor Swift ('Ours') and George Strait ('Love's Gonna Make it Alright'). Chesney announced last week that he has a new album in the works, which is slated for a June 2012 release.
