Ally's Weak IPO Still Turns a Profit—for U.S. Taxpayers
byAlly Financial was the fizzled IPO a U.S. taxpayer can feel slightly good about.
The auto-loan company that was once the financing division of General Motors dipped as much as 5 percent in its stock market debut after pricing shares at $25 and raising $2.38 billion late Wednesday. The stock closed 4 percent lower, finishing at $23.98.
With the initial public offering, the Treasury sold 95 million Ally shares, and taxpayers made a $500 million profit on the $17.2 billion bailout that the lender, then known as GMAC, required during the financial crisis as a result of its mortgage portfolio. Ally had repaid $15.3 billion prior to its public offering. The bailout's "most important goal was to stabilize the financial system and prevent a second great depression, not to make a profit," the Treasury said in a statement.
GM accounted for 39 percent of Ally's auto loans and leases last year, highlighting the lack of diversity in the company's portfolio compared with the loan books of rivals. Since the 2008 financial crisis, big banks have also boosted their exposure to the auto industry. Wells Fargo and JPMorgan Chase are now the two largest players. Chrysler switched its financing business from Ally to Banco Santander early in 2013, a further blow to the recovering Detroit-based lender.
In January, meanwhile, the government sold $3 billion worth of Ally shares, reducing the public's stake in the company to 37 percent. The IPO further reduced the Treasury's position to about 17 percent. The department said it "will continue to evaluate exit strategies" for that stake.

I hope you know,
6 comments:
I also discovered your blog on Pinterest. Your swaddle dolls and the turtle are adorable. Thank you so much for sharing with us. From what I have read so far you do not come across as egotistical. You come across as very sweet, loving, and talented. I am reading this in my pajamas I have had on all day. I too wear old clothes when I clean. If someone comes over they should be coming to see you, if they want to come over and see your house they need to make an appointment. I think alot of people are relieved when they walk into a house that's not picture perfect and they friend is not made up yet. Then they know they don't have to be perfect when you come to their house.
ReplyDeleteNope not egotistical at all. I have just started a blog. I'm a stay at home mum with 2 little people (oh my, how do they make so much mess!) and I'd rather sew than clean. I also like to take pictures of stuff I make, if you'd like a look my blog is http://nellieanddot.wordpress.com/
Let me know what you think!- AnonymousNovember 5, 2012 at 1:36 AM
Goodness me Becca, you read typical of a mum your age. So much to do, not enough time to do it in. You are not alone, you're just smart enough to know yourself what the situation is, perhaps others don't make you aware of their life. Why worry? Enjoy your life and your family foremost, you don't want them to be your greatest regret when you look back at life. Do what you enjoy most, it keeps you sane and makes a better person of you.
Most of all, keep writing as you do, you're alright girl and there are lots of us who appreciate you as you are.
Don't ever be what you think other people expect you to be.
Be yourself and keep making memories. There is no one like you.
Special hugs from a friend you haven't met who would be proud of you as a daughter and/or friend.
Special hugs to one special and talented girl.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.33 / 5.00 6,295 ViewsHey Newgrounds!
Thanks for checking this out I hope you like it. It's a short about two flowers madly in love, however I personally think it's not meant to be. This flash was originally called 'Flower Power' but that name was taken. So was 'Flowers', so I decided to use the title of a poem called 'Let Our Love Die Not' by Alancia Lebogang Mogorosi (I'm not intelligent enough to know this poem I googled it...)
I'm working on two other projects:
- Rocket Crotch: Halloween Special (EDIT: I have now finished!)
- Johnny and the Portals
Trying to get them done ASAP. I'm still quite a newbie so any thoughts and comments will be mega helpful. Cheers!
With Audio
Great work Chris, even better with the music and sound effects. Although honestly, that live dub you did earlier when soud was not working was pretty fucking impressive. I mean you got the timing and everything. Anyway awsome toon man, it's a great idea and I really like your animation style, the David bit is my favorite.
that was awesome!
nice work :D
maybe you could of exported it with the sound quality a little higher but hey,
im in no position to pass judgement.
keep 'em coming chris!
cheers tim!!! looking forward to cheeseman!!
Fucking spot on man
Even though you'd told me the punchline before the delivery was ace
Only bad thing was that the music kinda ovverided the voices but hey
arghh never mind, first flashes are never 100% spot on but we learn thru advice and shizzz as you well know. next project, rocket crotch. its coming along well actually, shud be ready for halloween!
I give you the lolz
Indeed, good for a first flash! Not alot of animation but it was humorous. I loved the end. My only real beef with this is the sound. The music choice was alright, definitely added to the whole lubby-dubby scene-ness, but it was overbearing. It blared right over the voices. That's a big thing to remember for pleasing viewers : good video quality AND good sound quality. One without the other will just end in tears. Good job sir.
Looking back at it know yeah it is quite over the top. thanks for the review, i'll bere it all in mind for my other flash movies, cheers dude
Dear Chris,
You bastard,a I am wastaed onff my face and you nevera did come ouat on that friday you went meant ot be back in BASRNLEY.
Yours Truley.
My dick.
I know am a dick. I forgot myself. I love you

Industrial Production and Capacity Utilization - G.17
G.17 Data Download Formats
The Federal Reserve provides the data from the G.17 release in multiple ways:
- Data Download Program (DDP)
- Text Files
- Related Data
- Manufacturing Investment and Capital
- International Data Submissions
Data Download Program (DDP)
The Data Download Program allows you to retrieve data related to selected Federal Reserve Boad statistical releases, including the G.17. You may build your own custom data package or select a preformatted package. The Data Download Program allows for charting of selected data as well as downloading data in serveral different formats (i.e. Excel, CSV, XML (SDMX)).
Text Data Files
The files containing data from 1986 to present are updated each month as part of the G.17 release process.
The historical data, grouped by the table in which they appear in the G.17 release, are available in text files.
The format for each line in the files consists of an industry code,
a year, and 12 months of data (to four decimal places) when available. The data have
various start dates; the earliest is 1919.
Documentation for importing data into Microsoft Excel.
The data and the documentation files are available through the following links. (Tables 4 and 5 are indexes of series found in tables 1 and 2. Data and documentation for table 10 are available through the links for tables 1 and 2. Tables 11, 12, 13, and 14 of the release report a limited range of historical data for major aggregates found in other tables. These tables are, therefore, not reported here.)
- Tables 1, 2 and 10: Industrial Production: Market and Industry Groups (including IP series from tables 1, 2, and tables 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, and 1E of the G.17 Supplement; also includes gross-value-weighted industrial production for stage-of-process groups found in table 10)
- Table 3: Motor Vehicle Assemblies
- Table 6: Diffusion Indexes of Industrial Production
- Tables 7 and 8: Capacity Utilization and Industrial Capacity: Manufacturing, Mining, and Utilities (includes series from tables 7, 8, and tables 2, 3 of the G.17 Supplement)
- Table 9: Industrial Production: Gross Value of Products
- All Tables: Tables 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9
- Relative Importance Weights for Seasonally Adjusted IP.
- Discontinued Data: Electric Power Use: Manufacturing and Mining
Related Data
A separate set of data and documentation show the seasonally adjusted aggregate initial estimate of the Industrial Production index as it was originally published and subsequently revised during the normal four-month estimation period as was the practice up through March 2008.
The Federal Reserve also publishes some industrial data that are not part of the G.17 release:
- March 17, 2017: Seasonal factors for auto and truck production were revised back to January 1996 and extended through June 2018 on March 17, 2017. The revised factors for September 2016 through February 2017 were used in the G.17 release published on March 17, 2017, and the revised factors for earlier months will be incorporated into the production estimates at the time of the annual revision on March 31, 2017. The revised seasonal factors are based on production data through January 2017. The revised factors also correct an error in the number of holidays for January 2017, which had previously been understated. The seasonal factors will be revised again in March 2018. A comma-delimited text file containing these seasonal factors is available for download.
- October 28, 2016: The Federal Reserve released updated communications equipment price indexes. Comma-delimited text files containing quarterly and annual data are available for download
- August 2, 2016: The Federal Reserve released updated seasonal factors for auto and truck sales. A comma-delimited text file containing these seasonal factors is available for download.
- August 2, 2016: The Federal Reserve released updated annual information on the real capital stock and real investment for detailed industries within the manufacturing sector based on a variety of data sources. These data by industry and broad asset class are provided to the National Bureau of Economic Research-Center for Economic Studies (NBER-CES) Manufacturing Industry Database.
- April 15, 2016: An annual price index for computer storage equipment for the period 2002 through 2015 is now available. The index provides an estimate of year-to-year price changes for computer storage equipment assuming that the quality of the device is unchanged. Data from IDC, a company specializing in information technology industries, were used to construct a matched-model quarterly price index, which was then converted to an annual index. This annual price index was incorporated into the industrial production indexes for computer storage equipment at the time of the annual revision to the G.17 statistical release on industrial production and capacity utilization that was published on April 1, 2016. A comma-delimited text file containing annual data is available for download. More details are available here.
- December 16, 2015: The Federal Reserve released updated microprocessor price index with new data for 2012 and 2013. This price index was previously issued in 2013 with data for 2007 through 2011. The updated price index was incorporated into the industrial production index for semiconductors and related electronic components published on July 21, 2015, as a part of the annual revision to the G.17 statistical release on industrial production and capacity utilization. A comma-delimited text file containing annual data is available for download.
- July 21, 2015: The Federal Reserve Board issued its annual revision to the index of industrial production (IP) and the related measures of capacity utilization on July 21, 2015. The classification system for the industry groups was advanced to the 2012 version of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), and the comparison base year was advanced to 2012. See this notice for more details on the industry code changes.
- June 26, 2013: Industrial Production Seasonal Adjustment Procedures. A file with detailed information on the procedures used to seasonally adjust the Industrial Production Indexes is now available for download.

- Investment Capital (CSV)
- Investment Capital (Excel)
- FEDS Notes: Annual Data on Investment and Capital Stocks
- Capital Stock Estimates for Manufacturing Industries: Methods and Data (112 KB PDF)

G.17 data are provided to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) as part of their Special Data Dissemination Standard Plus (SDDS+) program:
G.17 data are provided to the United Nations (UN) as part of their industrial statistics program. Unlike the G17, which is NAICS-based, the UN data are based on the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC), Rev. 4:
Historical release dates are also available.
Discontinued Data: Electric Power Use: Manufacturing and Mining. The Federal Reserve discontinued its survey of industrial electric power use with the publication on December 15, 2005, of data for October 2005.

quote:Originally posted by SandyThe difference in price between new replacement and finished repair of possibly questionable quality compared to the construction & heat resistance of the Centek may only a couple hundred $ or so. That must seem like a lot right now, but if a repair fails from any combination of stress, substantial heat and vibration, it can allow both CO and a lot of water in the boat in short time. (My blue 5.7L engines spec RW pumps flow at 5 gal in 15 sec at 4000 RPM I believe, and most of my exhaust hose and mufflers are below waterline.) If the waterlift did not look at all damaged (with internal inspection, just the hose , I'd probably reuse it, But as is in the pics , personally I believe I'd replace for peace of mind. With apologies to your wallet, another thing you understandably may not want to hear is, the pricier blue silicone exhaust hose is supposedly much more resistant to heat and burn-thru, which may give you enough time to be aware of the flow problem and avoid a hole in your inside maybe under-water-line exhaust .http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4LENP_en___US479&q=blue+silicone+exhaust+hose

This is a completely private suite - a full floor - with its own bedroom, bathroom, living space, shared laundry room, and basic kitchen amenities (refrigerator and sink). It was so relaxing to come home to this quiet, tidy, beautiful place in a really amazing historical home. The neighborhood is quiet and charming, very close to OTR and downtown neighborhoods, and very pleasant for a walk. I loved it here. Would absolutely stay again!
ZoeJuly 2016When I first read the reviews on The VanGordon house, I thought at least some of them had to be faked. How could a house this nice, with such an exemplary level of hospitality that one would expect from an actual bnb in the English countryside, be this cheap to rent? As soon as I set foot in the house, I realized it wasn't too good to be true. Every review, every star given to the VanGordon house was hard earned by the hosts through painstaking attention to deal to make anyone feel completely at home in their lovely house. I stayed there from 10/31-11/1 and they left me a bowl of Halloween candy to enjoy (in addition to a large supply of snacks), how thoughtful is that?!?!? Although I didn't interact with the hosts more than a few times because I was busy, I had the feeling that I could have easily enjoyed their company for my entire stay had I the time to do so. Incredibly nice neighborhood, incredibly nice house, and an incredibly nice experience in Cincinnati!
PatrickNovember 2016Super quiant and charming suite. Huge space with all the little amenaties that make you feel at home and for an incrediable vaule!
ToddAugust 2016We absolutely loved our stay here! It was such a cute and cozy place! It is centrally located and we had such easy access to everything we need. Travis was very thoughtful and helpful with everything! We hope to stay here again the next time we come to Cincinnati!
JessicaNovember 2016This place was wonderful. These hosts have an exceptional attention to detail-- every amenity you could need/want. It was a short stay, so we didn't have much time to interact with our hosts, but I'm sure they're lovely. I love the history and architecture in Cincy, and this location puts you in the heart of it all while still feeling very homey. I would recommend this place and stay again!
DanielleDecember 2016Travis was an excellent host. From setting up confirmation prior to arrival until checkout he was easily accessible and able to answer all questions. The location was excellent only a few minutes away from OTR and Great American Ballpark. I can say nothing but good things from my visit!
DarrenSeptember 2016Beautiful loft in a quiet residential area. Great hosts, but plenty of privacy (private entrance in separated floor of house.) Very large space, and super convenient for getting downtown!

I went all alone to Cincinnati to attend to a Maroon Five concert. Moreover than this I wasn't expecting anything else, but because of Joshua I had a great experience in Cincinnati. He was really caring about all things that I would need, related to being comfortable in the house as enjoying my time in Cincinnati. Joshua is super easy going, talkable and fun. Never forget that experience.
lucianaMarch 2017Joshua is a great host. His place is very centrally located to everything in Cincinnati. It is less than a mile to the convention center and a lot of downtown sites. It was a quick Uber drive over to Paul Brown stadium also. The guest room is private and has its own bathroom with your own door to come in and out. The value for this place is amazing compared to the cost of a downtown hotel.
NickNovember 2016Josh is an awesome host. Super nice, professional, and in my opinion has the best place I have stayed at in Cincinnati. Looking forward to staying here again later in the month.
KyleMarch 2017Josh was a great host and incredibly accommodating. He always made sure that I had everything that I needed and had great communication throughout the process.
JohnNovember 2016Everything about the stay went smoothly and would definitely stay again.
DaveFebruary 2017I stayed for 4 nights, and it was a truly great experience for me to stay in Joshua's house. Joshua was the best of the best host whom I have ever met. (he even invited me to his basket ball game with his friends). Above all, his house was extremely clean, cozy, and even fancy. I could use my own restroom in my room during the stay. Everything including the communication with the host, the location of the house (within 5-10 mins distance to Downtown on foot), the character of the host was great and perfect for me. I strongly recommend all the people to stay in Joshua's house if you have a chance to stay in Cincinnati. Thank you. Have a great day!
WonyongMarch 2017Great location, especially for the price. Joshua was quick to respond to any issue and very friendly (although our schedules didn't allow us to actually meet). The bathroom could have been a bit cleaner and the mirror was in the process of being replaced, but based on the price, this wasn't a huge issue. A friendly warning to light sleepers: it is an end unit beside a fairly busy street and sidewalk and the garage is on the other side of the guest bedroom wall. Just a heads up for my fellow light-sleepers and/or people on weird schedules.
CharlesJanuary 2017I had a good stay at Joshua's home. The bedroom was a good size and I had my own bathroom, which was a nice touch. Had full access to the kitchen upstairs and Josh let me use some fridge space since I was there for two weeks. Joshua was very personable and friendly and answered any questions I had. Great experience!

This was a great value! The apartment was very spacious and clean and Samantha was extremely helpful. If you are looking to stay in Cincinnati, look no more. This deal can't be beat.
Kristen January 2017Great price for a great location! The apartment was within a 5-10 minute drive of several restaurants and other fun places. Very spacious and had tons of kitchen supplies if you'd like to cook during your stay. We loved it!
StephanieFebruary 2017Sam went out of her way to make me feel welcome. She let me know the day ahead that I could arrive a little early than the listed check-in. There was coffee, coffee filters, sugar, creamer, oatmeal and granola bars available for me. There were travel toiletries available (and the towels were really soft and plentiful). She had a printed guide of places in the neighborhood. On my last day, she gave me a ride to the airport, at 7:00 a.m. in the morning. The place was much bigger than I thought from the photos. It felt palatial compared to a hotel room.
HarmonyNovember 2016This charming old house with very high ceilings was well furnished and fun. This is a good value but not a place if you're looking for a place to look like a new hotel room! Steam punk funky and fun! I enjoyed it and Samantha was a great and accessible host who was able to accommodate me with my fussy requests! Go for it!
AlbinJanuary 2017My boyfriend and I rented this unit for one month during a medical school rotation and we were very satisfied with our stay. Samantha was a wonderful host! She was very friendly, easy to communicate with, and was always receptive to any questions or needs that we had. The apartment was spotless when we arrived and was complete with kitchen and bathroom necessities, and some additional perks including guidebooks, cookbooks, and complimentary snacks. This location is great for anyone looking to rent near the U-Cincinnati undergrad campus or the UC/Children's Medical Centers.
ToryOctober 2016Our experience was good. Spacious one bed room apartment with good amount of privacy. Check in and out was smooth. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend and maybe return to next time we are around Cincinnati.
ShawnSeptember 2016This is a great little place for two people! We were able to walk to Rhinegeist Brewery and take a $5 Uber to downtown. Samantha was very hospitable and left a nice detailed note on things to do around the neighborhood. This place is a great value for the area!
AdrienneJanuary 2017This was a wonderful place to stay! Highly recommended! It was within walking distance from a lovely little park that overlooks the city, and plenty of great restaurants are within walking distance or the Over the Rhine area was a $5 Uber/Lyft ride. Sam was extremely accommodating and hospitable. I brought my dog with me, and she was willing to let him out and play while I was stuck in conferences all day. He loved the enclosed space and playing with their dog! It made my first trip with the dog worry- free and enjoyable. Sam was always available by text for anything at all- questions, recommendations, etc. The space was very clean, amenities were provided and I found exactly as described- full kitchen and bath, bed couch, TV. Also provided were several maps- one booklet made by Sam with all of her recommendations I found particularly helpful. Where else could you get all of this for the price?

I stayed with Eric and Mindy for a couple of weeks. They are the nicest people I could have had the luck to stay. Their home is very beautiful, better than the pictures for sure. I liked how quiet and open was the home daily dynamic. It was perfect for what I needed (I had very long days of work and study) The ability to have my car parked with me inside the garage was a very special plus. You can walk anywhere from here and have traffic opposite when you go out of the city. I don't know much about home design or style but the house is just so new, nice and exquisite.
NicolasMay 2016Had an excellent stay with Eric and Mindy. Both were kind, generous, and helpful. Their home is beautiful, clean, and welcoming in a fun neighborhood to explore. Their recommendations were excellent and I was deeply appreciative of how relaxed they made us feel as we stayed. Highly recommend.
AdamSeptember 2016Eric&Mindy are so nice!The room was comfortable and independent bathroom, in a quiet and convenient community, there are also a lot of restaurants delicious ice cream shop. The landlord and his wife are very friendly, can use the kitchen, and share the food in the refrigerator to us, I first came to Cincinnati, they gave me a map of Cincinnati, and to help me a lot! If you go to Cincinnati, their home is the best choice!
hejunFebruary 2016Perfect hosts! Everything was super easy and communicated prior to arrival. Accommodations were comfortable and spacious. Hosts had great recommendations and tour guides - we did the Underground tour which was spectacular. Amazing location, walking distance to everything.
AngelaNovember 2016We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Eric and Mindy's place. They were such kind hosts, and their place is beautiful. It's also in a great location for walking to all the shops/restaurants in the OTR area. Would highly recommend staying here. Thanks to you both!
EllenApril 2016The listing looked exactly how it was described. The host were very welcoming and hospitable. We would love to stay with them again if we visit Cincy in the future. Very happy with this reservation.
LalahFebruary 2016We highly recommend this location in Over the Rhine. The home is spotless, the hosts, Eric and Mindy are very approachable and welcoming. We are frequent visitors to Cincinnati and will definitely stay here again.
JoyAugust 2016Eric and Mindy are amazing hosts and you can't stay anywhere else better when it comes to OTR!!! Our private space was large, very clean and comfortable. The icing on the cake was our own parking space. Saved us a lot of time and hassle. Already looking forward to our next visit!

Everything worked out great. Access to place was a breeze and Edward was a great host. All fell into place effortlessly.
JasonMay 2016Edward was right there for us whenever we had a question! Welcomed us with treats in the kitchen and candy in the candy bowl. Everything was communicated very well and his condo was very clean and comfortable to stay in. Beats a hotel room hands down anytime. He also gave us so great recommendations on places to eat which were great! Would defiantly go back in a heartbeat!
AmyDecember 2016Edward's place is fantastic! The condo is in one of my favorite Cincinnati neighborhoods, situated right next to Eden Park with easy access to downtown and OTR. The apartment is beautifully decorated, comfortable, welcoming, and even nicer than depicted in the photos. Edward was very accommodating of my schedule and needs as I was arriving after a long drive with an uncertain arrival time. The place was spotless and ready for me when I finally arrived, and check in was a breeze. I can't say enough good things about this place. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone. Five stars!
EricaSeptember 2016Edward was the perfect host. This was our family's first time visiting Cincinnati and, prior to our arrival, he suggested a few different activities he thought our boys would enjoy. On the day of our stay he also provided us with directions and instructions that made getting into the condo incredibly easy. The place itself was clean, spacious, modern and perfect for our family. He even left us coffee, juice and bagels for breakfast in the morning. Thank you again Edward for making our stay in Cincinnati wonderful.
TheresaJune 2016Our host provided "over and above" everything we needed to be pleased and comfortable! This is a real "jewel" in the crown of Cincinnati, right next to the beautiful Eden Park. Our host provided breakfast amenities, and all the things we needed to enjoy our stay. Our host was always available by phone if we needed anything.The condo was neat, clean, and beautifully decorated. I would recommend this spacious condo to anyone traveling to Cincinnati, and think it would be an added high-light of your trip. There was nothing better than coming back to this lovely, and welcoming condo after a day of touring in Cincinnati!
GrettaMay 2016Great communication and responsiveness from host. Great location that is clean and has comfortable furnishings. Would stay there again.
JasonJuly 2016For our family of four, this was by far the best Airbnb experience we have ever had! The loft was beautifully renovated and the host provided some extra amenities to make the stay perfect. If the weather permits, don't miss the opportunity to go on the rooftop deck for a gorgeous view of the city!
MeganJune 2016We stayed at this condo for 2 weeks with our 3 month old baby. The condo is exactly as described and very spacious. We had plenty of room for all our baby things. The secured parking was very helpful and nice. Ed was very quick to respond and made our first Airbnb experience a good one. We would stay here again when visiting Cincinnati.

Parking is next store for a small fee or you can park on the street. Close to OTR. Walking distance and near the street car. Deff would stay again!

Jean-JacquesNovember 2016Can I stop a moment and just tell you how amazing this experience was. The day before the listing I got call from Tiffany confirming my time and arrival which I was impressed that she took the time out to call because this is rare. On arrival I was blown away with how beautiful this building, the artwork, the bedrooms were. I sat down and visited with a few people from other countries, it felt like an upscale group hotel and all the people were so nice. At about 8 oclock dinner was served and Tiffany went out of here way to make sure that every person there was happy with their meal. The meal was amazing! You got better service here than any restaurant you will probably go to. It made you feel like you were part of one big family. I recommend her place its well worth it you will NOT find a better deal and a better experience on Airbnb in Cincinnati. World class experience.....
JasonJanuary 2017Staying at Tiffany's is the greatest experience and value on Airbnb . Her home makes you feel like you are staying in a mansion , she offers cooked meals , access to a entertainment room with a fridge full of food and more. It actually makes me feel guilty for only being charged around $30 . Thank you Tiffany for setting the bar for all of Airbnb!!

Tim is an amazing host and has the perfect airbnb set up in Cincinatti. The accommodations are updated, clean and in the heart of the town. Tim communicates extremely well is very accommodating and provides a level of comfort that made me feel at home. Thank you Tim. I hope to be back
ClaytonFebruary 2017Timothy had an awesome apartment. Located just above a bar with great beer prices. Not to mention a complimentary free beer voucher! Very resourceful and an abundance of food. If I am ever coming back out to Cincinnati for whatever reason, Timothy's place is the way to go!
GregFebruary 2017Tim'a place is fantastic! It's perfectly located, an amazing apartment and Tim is a great host. Yes it's over a bar, yes you hear some music and chattting, but it was never anything that was overly loud! A great place to stay with a very charming and welcoming host! I look forward to booking again if I am ever back in Cininnati!
PatrickMarch 2017Probably the cleanest property I've stayed in with AirBNB. Great food is all around. The craft beer joint at the corner was great as well. I brought my sound machine and the music wasn't an issue for me.
LewisFebruary 2017Tim's place is located in the middle of some of Cincinnati's most popular bars and dining venues. For the price, it is easily the best valued place in Cincinnati. It's perfect for staying the weekend by yourself or with your partner! His place is extremely clean and has all the basic necessities for a short getaway. You get a spacious bedroom and private bathroom as well as access to a full kitchen. The only slight downside is that the apartment is right on top of a bar. It can get loud at night, but earplugs can easily take care of that problem. There are plenty of affordable parking options nearby! Overall, I would strongly recommend visitors to spend the duration of their Cincinnati stay with Tim. I hope that his place available for my next trip out.
ColinFebruary 2017The apartment is nice and perfectly located. You can hear the music from the bar downstair but not enough to refrain me from sleeping. Communicating with Tim was easy. I easily recommend.

Lance Armstrong is, and always will be, `Dope'
The calendar says 2012, but with all of this Performance Enhancing Drug and "Doping" talk over the last two weeks, I swear it feels like 2010 … or 2008 … or even 2006.
Haven't we been here before? I know I am not the only one sick of this stuff.
Last week San Francisco Giants outfielder Melky Cabrera received a 50-game suspension after testing positive this season for high levels of testosterone. Two days ago, Oakland Athletics pitcher Bartolo Colon was hit with the same suspension for the same type of violation.
And on Thursday, news came out that Olympic Champion and Cycling Legend Lance Armstrong essentially gave up his fight against allegations that he "doped" during his career. Armstrong maintains that he has been clean, but says the fight is taking a toll on his life and he doesn't care what people say.
My stance?
I'm not sure I can say it more simply than this:
My stance on this issue of performance enhancing drugs or related activities has been the same since Day One.
Athletes didn't physically hurt anyone other than themselves.
I still enjoyed their performances in the moment.
I'll still remember their performances even if their names are stricken from record books or appear with an asterisk.
My personal views are mine. That's how I process all of this information and cope with the way this dope stuff has affected the way we view sports.
I understand and respect the opinions that are in contrast of mine. I get that people are outraged, that athletes themselves are upset, especially those who did it "the right way."
But sports have changed. Period.
It's no longer one person against another in a pure battle of strength or wits.
People don't compete simply for the love of their sport.
I choose to enjoy the performances for what they are in the moment. Sure, I'd like to compare the stars of this generation with those from the past, but that can't be done accurately in any sport for various reasons. The sooner we come to terms with this, the quicker we can stop focusing on the negative aspects and just enjoy these sports as forms of entertainment.
Want good, clean sporting competition? Watch Little League Baseball.
Oh, wait…

Honestly watching this parody video through was pretty much the best 4 minutes of my day today.
Honestly watching this parody video through was pretty much the best 4 minutes of my day today.
Rapper Young Thug wanted a lot of cool things in his video: Girls in bikinis, little kids smashing a cop car with Super Soakers, Power Wheels, and, of course, the man himself eating Cheetos. The one thing, apparently, he didn't want was to show up.
The new Young Thug video explains what happened one fateful when Ryan Staake, the co-director of Young Thug's video for "Wyclef Jean," realized his co-director, Young Thug, wasn't going to show up for the shoot. Despite being told that the rapper was on his way, Staake powered through, shooting the girls riding the Power Wheels, Young Thug's own son destroying a cop car in front of real cops, and two girls, one Kielbasa. He also intercuts the video with audio clips of Young Thug describing what he wanted in the video. It's amazing.
Now, it's worth noting that this might eb all part of the video conception. It was, afterall, released by Young Thug. But fake or not, it's a really cool idea for a music video that doesn't make the performer look too great.
Just think of what could've been:
via Young Thug
Instead of sending out the boring, old, "Welcome Back" newsletter, Mr. Reed, a first year teacher from Chicago, wrote a rap song for his 4th grade students, and recorded a music video to go along with it! The song and video emphasize the reality that hard work is a must, but that school and learning can certainly be fun!

--Finnish Jujutsu Style - Hokutoryu:
So, not sure if this is exactly the place to post this. I thought about posting links with pictures, clips and movies about the style that I practise mainly called Hokutoryu, secondary styles that I occasionally practise are BJJ and KB but I am no expert on either, my grapling skills on the ground are at the moment better than my stand up striking which is totally BJJ's result.
From you guys, I hope input and feedback on what you think based on mys description and the movies and images.
First, some links: http://www.hokutoryu.ir/gallery.htm (this is the site of Iranian club whit extensive gallery of many training camps, No fucking idea how it has spread there as Iran and Finland are not close by any means, my gues is that there were a exchange student or refugee who trained in Finland and spread the style, I do not know how big is in there, might be one club, might be hundred???)
Movies: http://www.ju-jutsuklubi.fi/mediav.php (this is one of the very few sites where there is even small clips of the techniques, the 7# video is sparring altough by the grace of god I do not know why they have put that up, since I am a orange belt and our sparring is with more speed, contact and intention than that, IMO a bad vid to be labeled sparring...)
Here is one more link: http://www.mikkelinjujutsu.net/ at the center of the page there is a link:
Lajiesittelyn 2006 video
(28 mb)
Click on it and then save or open, it is a longer video of a demo a club in Mikkeli did.
I can dig up more videos and pictures later if people are interested.
A short analysis and history of the style (by me from various sources): Hokutoryu Ju-jutsu would more accurately be said to be Goshin Jutsu style, since it has no direct historical lineage to JJJ, it shares in great deal the history of the British Jujitsu.
The founder of Hokutoryu is Auvo Niiniketo, currently holding a 8th dan, in jujutsu which was signed by soke Richard Morris and few other hig grades (among them one Japanese but I have no idea that sensei from a classical style or just a goshin jutsu instructor who happens to be ethnic japanese). Niiniketo also holds 5th dan in kickboxing by WAKO. He is also the first man to bring Kickboxing in to Finland and in his dojo was the first KB club started, which runs even today (I train there occasionally).
Niiniketo's training started with boxing (his highest achievement was Bronze in Finnish Championships, dont remember the year, can dig up later if necessary). Later when he did not actively compete he started karate which had just came to Finland and later discovered jujitsu when he was on a training trip to boxing club in Stockholm, Sweden.
After many different contacts and routes he finally started to study and grade under Richard Clarke and Robert Morris of WJJF.
The solution to start his own style was after decades of doing British jujitsu. He noticed that his experience in boxing, later kickboxing had made training in Finland a bit different in many parts, to this added also the isolation from the main jujitsu circle in Britain (he was after all training most of the time in Finland altough they extensively traveled in Europe in training camps and seminars, nowdays that pays of as many foreign instructors come to Finland to give instruction on Hokutoryu camps).
Nowdays Hokutoryu has spread to almost everywhere in Finland and to many neighbour countries. It's standards are tried to kept high by national camps, where you have to go to grade and by long times between grades, (from 8 months in the lower kyu grades up to a year, the time between brown and black is not defined but always over a year, most people spend more than one year on each kyu grade).
The grading system is same as in judo (white, yellow, orange, green, blue, brown, black) and in green and onwards full-contact fighting with hokutoryu rules (explained later) is mandatory. The intensity and lenght of time and numbers of opponents increases in each grading.
Hokutoryu rules are following: full-contact, bare knucke. Now gear expect mouthpiece and a jockstrap (???). Strikes to the head, back of the head and to the spine are illegall. Other wise all strikes, kicks and knees (also to the head and low kicks) are allowed, all throws, locks and submissions, striking is allowed on the ground (but not to the head).
General training is done in partner training, some practise of kicks and punches are done in formations (as in karate) but to my understanding this is reserved only for the very beginning. Partner training consists of techniques, usually block+strike+throw+submission/lock. Other than that training is mostly either "jujutsu randori" or sparring.
The jujutsu randori means training where one person is attacked by one or more assailants with different attacks and he must respond to them with anything that comes to mind, bonus points if it works but in essence as long as you start punching the other guy back it is sufficient. This trainings intensity increases when you go up the levels but stills remains pretty compliant in my eyes.
Sparring consists of many different types (can vary somewhat from club to club). Generally it is stand up, throwing and ground or all (hokutoryu rules but ofcourse not fullcontact in the training all the time). Before green it is without punches to the face but from green onwards you must own and bring boxing gloves to the training. My sparring has been without gloves as I am a orange belt but with contact (depends on the opponent, often we are told to do light sparring).
Good things: Clear, IMO working techniques (I actually did this tyle a short while when I was 14 and used few of the techniques in scuffle at school without thinking, result of the strict drilling I gues), strict dicipline (can be minus too I gues), notion that physique matters (I have not ever walked out of training without pouring of sweat, altough that can say more about me than the training, also, I have never seen out of shape high kyu grade or BB). Many guards, police officers train in the style, so lot of the practitioners have evalute their learning on the field, however many have jumped to MMA, BJJ or Krav Maga also. Military also has their own version of the style and it is practised in many closed clubs on garrisons - I do not know how many there are. One of the early students of Niiniketo was a navy officer, now 6th dan who has apparently greatly affected to the style with his training partner Risto Väntär, also a 6th dan in Hokutoryu jujutsu and 1th dan kickboxing under WAKO.
Bad things: As said, strict dicipline, not everybody likes it and there are some people in other arts (I have mostly talked to karate and taekwondo people, who have a noted tendency to dislike Hokutoryu), some dislike it also greatly because it is called ju-jutsu without the direct historical lineage.
In my eyes, the greatest minus is the amount of time put into the alive training. As I also train in BJJ I have noted how sparring is the key element to increase you skills and abilities. However, I must conclude that I am only and orange belt and I assume and believe - and hope - that the amount alive training (and its intesity) increases in advanced training (greenbelts and up). In every training however, once I got my orange, we have so sparring either stand up or ground but usually both. However, after this there is push ups and sit ups etc, this time could be put to sparring IMO and have peoples fitness grow and upheld trough that.
If any questions arose, please do ask. I will answer as best as I can but my knowledge base and lack of experience means that I am no expert on the subject. In my opinion, a great style but should move more into the MMA grounds... If you disagree, please say so and explain, what is it that you disagree with (and I actually hope you do disagree can give insights and angles that I have missed or simply ignored... everybody wants to think their own style is good).
Anyways, thanx in advance.

--So, no opinions about how the style looks like and what think of the pics and few vids? Too bad, I was hoping that some could - with a more experienced eye - point out where they tought there were room to improve the most.

--Okay, general comments about WJJF jujutsu in my (limited) experience of it. It's a relatively modern jujutsu form. The technique base appears to be mostly judo style throws and locks, with karate strikes added in. Someone else may know a detailed derivation of it, but from what I have seen, most of it looks like an attempt to 'reverse engineer' koryu jujutsu by adding the strikes back in to judo technique.
That's not a terrible thing. Judo technique is good.
However, the use of karate-style strikes within judo technique is of debateable merit, when compared to classical koryu striking (atemi). Karate striking of this sort usually involves 'bigger' motions than that of classical jujutsu, with chambered striking positions, etc.
This reflects a different emphasis. In most karate styles, the strikes are intended to be 'finisher' techniques in their own right. In contrast, the smaller, smoother strikes of classical jujutsu tend to be designed to fit into the 'flow' of a technique and to aid in disrupting the opponent's body structure, balance and ability to resist the lock or throw which is the real finisher.
In these video clips, the larger strikes are used within the jujutsu techniques, and appear to sit uncomfortably there. I'd venture to say that in most cases the 'defender' only really has time to pull off the whole technique sequence because the 'attacker' is completely passive after the initial attack.
More detailed comments on individual clips:
1: The dropping elbow strike causes a 'gap' in time between the attacker falling and the defender covering and applying the submission. Is the strike necessary, given that the defender has just been thrown? Would it not be more efficient to make sure the attacker is pinned before striking/submitting him?
2:'Staccato' technique, with clear pauses in between sections of action. Sometimes this is done deliberately to try to make things easier for students to pick up on, but it's not a good habit if you want to learn to fight.
3: Again, 'big' strikes, while the attacker just stands there. The theory may be that the first strike will stun him, but it's probably not safe to rely on that. The pose at the end looks like a karate back stance, rather than anything jujutsu related.
4: On the initial block, this may not be a good angle to move at: it brings the defender in range of the attacker's other hand, and opens the defender up to a groin kick. He may be defending/covering the hand though, it's not clear due to the camera angle. On the whole, though, this isn't where I'd choose to move, personally.
5: Why dump him on his head after he's already been choked out (symbolised by the 'tap') The arm lock at the end is dubious - looks like the attacker could squirm out of it without too much difficulty if he was resisting.
6: There's a pause between 1st and 2nd kick - the attacker is unlikely just to stand there. There's a longer pause after the 2nd kick, while the defender prepares himself for the throw. Considering that this is a demo and the partner is compliant, it's odd that this is the best that the defender can do.
I realise that all that is likely to sound quite nit-picky, and the videos are not all bad. At least the motions look practiced and confident. There are certainly worse things out there than WJJF jujutsu.
The other really big thing I didn't emphasise so far is the degree of compliance. If the schools are training with lots of sparring, the problems I'm picking up on here probably disappear in that context. However, if the sparring is limited in quantity or quality, there are probably better places to spend your time learning.
Of course, these are just my opinions/observations (and I'm far from the best qualified to judge stuff) but I hope you find them helpful.

--That's cool. Perhaps you can come back and let us know how it goes when you've done enough to get a flavour of it.
A word of advice, though: if the training is largely through compliant partner drills, don't be fooled by that. Keep asking yourself: can I really pull this technique off against a resisting opponent, who is actually trying to hurt me? If you lose sight of that, it's really easy to end up quite deluded about your ability to defend yourself.

When I trained Hokuto-ryu, MMA was not around, but knockdown tournaments were. Also, after orange belt, you could take kickboxing lessons for free, and local judokas helped in our throwing training.

I may be thinking of another group but isn't Hokuto-Ryu and ALLIANCE BJJ school as well?
I remember a Finnish team at both CBJJ European Championships tournaments I went to. They had both Alliance and Hokuto Ryu patches on their gi.______

"Run for Cover(age): Emerging Trends in Advertising Injury and IP Litigation," DRI's The Voice August 10, 2016
"Courts have become stricter in interpreting advertising injury clauses, coming down almost uniformly on the side of the carriers. Now, denial of coverage for infringement actions will be routinely upheld, especially when no allegations exist that the mark in question has literally been used in 'advertising,'" writes Jason L. Ederer, an associate in Goldberg Segalla's Intellectual Property and Global Insurance Services Practice Groups.
In this article, Jason examines the courts' evolving application of advertising injury provisions in general liability policies. In the past, courts have ruled that under such provisions, insurance companies have a broad duty to defend insured parties in trademark infringement actions, Jason writes.
But the courts' view on this issue has altered over the past few years, and in a recent case, the Second Circuit upheld the denial of coverage for injuries relating to the use of a counterfeit brand label, ruling that liability in the underlying action was based on "the sale — not the advertising — of counterfeit products."
"So what now? In determining the existence of coverage, it seems that an insurance company need only look at the face of the pleading to see if there is any allegation that the infringement occurred in advertising," Jason writes. "While this may be good for the insurance companies, it certainly undermines the purpose of advertising injury coverage."

A twist on the unisex trend--brainstorm!
I'm looking for girls' names that have boy-ish nicknames, or boy names that are more girl-ish. For example,
Alexandra "Alex"
Josephine "Jo"
Charlotte "Charlie"
I know there are many boys' names that have "gone to the girls" (Kelly, Shannon, etc.) that may be ready to be reclaimed, and I'm interested in hearing those. I'm also interested in finding any boys names that are solidly boy, but can be shortened to a more girly nickname, or any variation on this theme. I think this is more of a challenge than the girls!Last edited by capturedcastle; February 7th, 2014 at 02:05 AM.

Big Bear Lake, CA — At this week's meeting of the City Council of Big Bear Lake, the full Council supported a ballot measure for the November 2 election that would allow Big Bear Lake voters to determine whether they are in favor of a city charter amendment to extend Department of Water and Power Board requirements to all DWP customers, Valley-wide.
Council, at their meeting on March 8, also lent their support to a ballot initiative proposed by the League of California Cities Mountain Desert Division, billed as the Local Taxpayers, Public Safety and Transportation Protection Act. The state budget presentation by Nancy Cisneros of the League of California Cities reiterated that in fiscal year 2009/2010, the state borrowed $2 billion in property taxes from local governments, resulting in a trickle down effect for Inland Empire communities, some of which have been forced to close libraries, while also making cuts to fire and law enforcement agencies, and delays in road and infrastructure projects, just to name a few. Her presentation was essentially a request for Big Bear Lake's endorsement of the ballot initiative which, Cisneros said, "would protect local tax dollars by keeping them local." Mayor Pro Tem Bill Jahn, who serves as the League's Vice Chair of the Mountain Desert Division says that there are about 10 reform initiatives proposed for the Statewide General Election but, he added, "This particular initiative aims at the heart of the problem." Mayor Liz Harris expressed her support, noting that the state's "raid on cities and education is really criminal."
In other news from Council this week, the unanimously adopted Consent Calendar included approval for construction of a fishing pier for Boulder Bay Park, and an expenditure of $31,000 for surveying and engineering work for the Knickerbocker Street improvement project; this project at the east of the Village will include street widening, sidewalks and parking stalls.
During Public Comment, Jennie Boyington, on behalf of "we, the bingo players of Big Bear Lake and Big Bear City" asked that the City might consider extending bingo payouts up to $500 as allowed by California state law; at present, Big Bear Lake, home to bingo at the Big Bear Senior Center and the Elks Club, only allows for payouts up to $250. City Manager Jeff Mathieu said that city staff would continue to look into the matter.
Mayor Harris adjourned the March 8 Council meeting in memory of local historian Tim Sweet, who had passed earlier that day.

Practically everyone's watched a bouncing ball as it jumped horizontally across the floor before inevitably coming to a rolling stop. But what happens when you give that ball the chance to fly high above the tallest buildings, past the blue skies, and into space and beyond? Skybound gives you the opportunity to investigate the air up there in a fun and challenging way.
Ever wondered what the most stressful job in the world feels like? ATC 4.0 introduces iPhone gamers to the world of Air Traffic Control. The role of a enroute air traffic controller consists of sitting in dark radar rooms monitoring the flow of traffic, they issue instructions to follow headings, warn pilots of conflicting traffic, and clear aircraft for arrivals and departures. At times, it may feel like a video game….or does it?
Football doesn't only happen to be the biggest sport the world over, it happens to be the 3rd largest religion and 2nd most powerful political movement that unites millions of people fans around this globe. However, it has not really made a big impact on the iPhone, yet. Shane McCafferty is hoping to change than and has brought the Premier League to our hands and what more would we really want?
I downloaded all four of the originally released teams: Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester Utd and Arsenal but spent meaningful time only with Liverpool.
If you're the type of gamer that just wants to jump into a game with no need for instruction, if you like no-strategy gameplay, if you like mindless button-mashing, if you like games that go on and on with no change and no real reward… Boy, do I have a game for you!
Okay admit it, you like cute things. Things that make you laugh or smile. Babies, puppies, kitties – anything else? Okay, anything else cute that we can chat about on an iPhone review site? Something online? Something you can play with? Getting any ideas? Okay, in the App Store? How about Monsters? No no, not the cable company, the game.
Yeah, Monsters, brainchild of Samuel Vermette crept into the store 16 February to less fanfare than it deserves. Why? Well in the same timeframe, it has competed with many many applications including the Top App of the World; the App Store is a vicious place to do business.
Sometimes photographs need a little more panache, style or dramatic emphasis but it's not always convenient (or enjoyable) to transfer photos to a home computer for post-processing.
ColorSplash, the aptly named photographic manipulation app, gives you a bit of that Photoshop-like power in the palm of your hand. Specifically, it allows you to select the features of your images that will stand out in full color while the rest is converted to grayscale (black & white). While this single ability may sound simple, its results are anything but. Before we delve into the intricacies of the app, you need to see what I'm going on about.
Monster make Earphones!
Known the world over for car audio cables, Monster are now gunning for the growing portaphile audience who demand their mobile audio to be pristine.

Don't be upset that the picture above isn't of Mariah Carey. Some guys (or girls) relate the word "fantasy" with visions of scantily clad vixens, but when I think of the word, it's usually "I wonder how I'm doing in my Fantasy (insert sport here) Pool!!!" Having Sportacular helps me answer that question right away. Whether you're a fantasy sports junkie, or just a sports junkie in general, Sportacular keeps you connected with all the sporting info you need while on the go.
From the days long gone, when Tom Cruise felt the need for speed, got involved in some risky business, and was counted among a few good men comes the racer based off the movie Days of Thunder. Despite the source material, which does not need to be seen to understand the story or mechanics of the game, Days of Thunder (the App) stands strong as the first stock car racer the AppStore has to offer.
When I was first introduced to Yard Sale Hidden Treasures, I had no idea what it was all about; all I know was that it had very good reviews on iTunes as well as on other websites. Given those, I had high expectations.

An award-winning regional history museum founded in 1957, EHM is a department of the City of Elmhurst and is supported by the Elmhurst Heritage Foundation (a 501c3 non-profit organization). The Elmhurst History Museum is located in the historically significant home known as the Glos Mansion, the former home of Elmhurst's first village president, Henry L. Glos, and his wife, Lucy. EHM also operates the Churchville Schoolhouse, a National Register of Historic Places site located in Bensenville, IL owned by the City of Elmhurst, where schoolchildren and adults are immersed in a living history experience with a 1900s schoolmarm.
Located in downtown Elmhurst just east of York Street on the south side of the Metra tracks, a short walk from the Elmhurst Metra Station.
