Editor's note: Below is an interview with Peter Tchir, founder of TF Market Advisors. This Q&A went out to subscribers of our "10 Things You Need To Know Before The Opening Bell" newsletter on Wednesday morning. Sign up below to get the newsletter and more of these interviews in your inbox every day.
BUSINESS INSIDER: Is there a single most important market price to be watching right now in terms of gauging the prospects for the global economy?
PETER TCHIR: We are watching China closely. In particular, we are seeing signs of stress in some of the Chinese funding levels which concerns us, especially as they are experiencing their first corporate bond defaults. We don't believe in the decoupling argument.
BI: The focus this week is on the Fed. What do you think will be the next Fed story to move markets?
PT: I think we will shift from "taper" — which will continue, according to the current schedule — and start discussing timing of the first rate hike. This will destabilize equities, and we could see signs in the FOMC projections that they release.
BI: What is the scariest thing going on in ETF land?
PT: A proliferation of small ETFs. They don't have the diversification and are too specific. ETFs are best when they represent "beta," are liquid, and provide access to the market. In fixed income, products like HYG let investors trade beta. BKLN lets investors trade the loan market, which isn't really accessible in any other way. I don't like the small funds that are too specific.
BI: What is the most exciting trade out there right now, in your opinion?
PT: Sadly, the trades that I see as most exciting are AAA CLO bonds which are extremely cheap as investors lack the institutional knowledge to get comfortable with them. They offer the best risk/reward in income products and are one area I would like to see an ETF. AAA CLOs pay Libor +150 compared to 5-year investment grade floating-rate bonds which are more like LIBOR +30 (which hasn't stopped FLOT from growing to almost $US4 billion).
I am scared to say this, but I like selling credit default swaps. With Russia still an issue, I would hold off, but CDS have performed extremely well and are very liquid — at least in the CDS indices I would use. They are cleared now, which helps reduce counterparty risk, and transparency has increased since SEFs have launched. We are still double the pre-crisis spread levels, so there is room to get good income and possibly price appreciation. Stocks and bonds are back to pre-crisis levels. PIMCO uses them in at least one of their ETFs, so it is conceivable that over time we will see some CDS-based ETFs.
Finally, I am looking at China. FXI could be interesting. We aren't ready to pull the trigger, but this is getting reminiscent of Italy and Spain last summer, when the best potential returns were available before everyone else fell in love.
BI: Which developments in global financial markets, if any, would you flag as most concerning for risk appetite?
PT: The lack of volatility. Volatility is something that hedge funds need to thrive. Lack of volatility leads to leverage, which leads to problems. We are potentially sowing the seeds of our own destruction as this extended rally, with low volatility, is creating a mentality where positions get riskier and larger, and historically that ends badly. We might have a long way to go to get the leverage back to 2007 levels, but it is something we are watching closely, and even the CLOs that we like are part of that growing, and troubling trend.

Disclaimer: I'm a developer and I know very little about setting up servers, but in small shops, responsibilities tend to bleed over.
We've just got a new server to run SQL Server on, and we're trying to decide how to best allocate responsiblities for different servers. We also have a bunch of light Windows Services that currently run on the same server as SQL Server. In comparison, SQL Server works much harder than all of the Windows Services combined, so we're trying to maximize the amount of resources allocated to it.
We are considering running two virtual environments on the new server, one for SQL Server and one for the Windows Services. Does this give us any gains over just running everything on the same physical server with no virtualization? The thought is that if we can create a virtual environment with limited resources for the Windows Services, then most of the resources could be dedicated to the SQL Server environment, even when the Windows Services do have a spike in resource needs.
At this point there is no option for running them on separate physical servers.

Original thread
To help distinguish them grammatically, I'm assuming that pirates A, C and E are male but pirates B and D are female.
For a given pirate p, I'll use the phrase `scenario p' to describe what would happen if, in the final voting, pirate p (and therefore also all pirates of higher rank) were killed. So for example scenario C is what the final outcome would be if the proposals of pirates A, B and C were all rejected. It is clear that this scenario only depends on the proposals of the lower ranked pirates (in this case D and E). Furthermore, in deciding what his proposal should be, pirate C only needs to take into account scenario C, rather than details of exactly what pirates D and E proposed. Then scenario B is completely determined by C's proposal and scenario C in the following way: if at least half the pirates are better off according to C's proposal than scenario C then scenario B will just be C's proposal, otherwise scenario B will be the same as scenario C.
Now let's consider what pirate A should do. He wishes to survive, and so must ensure that at least two other pirates are better off according to his proposal than according to scenario A. Subject to this, he wishes to get as much gold as possible. So he should pick two of the pirates who are worst off according to scenario A and offer each of them one more coin than in scenario A, taking the rest for himself. He can always do this, since the gold obtained by the two worst off pirates according to scenario A can total at most 500 coins, so he has to pay out at most 502 coins.
On the basis of this, we can see that pirate A's proposal will always be accepted, and we know exactly how his proposal is determined by scenario A. Let's now turn our attention to pirate B. She is confident that she will survive, since she knows that pirate A's proposal will be accepted. So she just wants to maximise how much gold she gets. She can do this by using her proposal to tailor scenario A in such a way that pirate A will offer her as much gold as possible. This means that she would like to be one of the two pirates who are worst off in scenario A, or to put it another way she would like there to be at least two other pirates who do at least as well as her according to scenario A.
Ideally, she should hope that in scenario A she will get exactly 332 coins, whilst 2 other pirates get at least 333. That way, pirate A will offer her 333 coins in his proposal (if she gets 333 coins in scenario A then there will be at most one other pirate who is strictly better off than her in that scenario and so she gets at best a 1 in 2 chance of being offered money in pirate A's proposal). To achieve this, she certainly needs to survive in scenario A and so she must make a proposal which will be accepted. She can certainly do this with a proposal of the kind stated above: since there are only 1000 coins, there is some pirate who gets at most 333 coins in scenario B, and so pirate B could, for example offer that pirate and some other unfortunate pirate each 334 coins and herself 332 coins.
In summary, pirate B will choose at random amongst proposals satisfying the following conditions:
- she gets 332 coins
- 2 other pirates (who I'll call the unlucky pirates) each get at least 333 coins
- at least one pirate other than her is better off than in scenario B
I'll call the other pirate, the one to whom pirate B offers less than 300 coins, the lucky pirate.
Then pirate A will propose to give pirate B 333 coins and the lucky pirate one more coin than in B's proposal and to keep the remaining gold for himself. Pirates A and B and the lucky pirate will vote in favour of this proposal and it will be accepted.
In light of all this, what sort of proposal should pirate C make? Obviously, he would like to end up as the lucky pirate. But he cannot guarantee this, because it is possible that he will end up being the `some other unfortunate pirate' from a couple of paragraphs ago. So the best he can do is to maximise the chances that he will be the lucky pirate.
Let's analyse this more carefully. We know that there are no more than 6 possible proposals in which he is the lucky pirate, corresponding to the 6 ways of distributing the extra 1000 - 332 - 2*333 = 2 coins amongst 3 pirates. In three of these he is offered nothing, and so ends up with just a single coin in the final distribution. In two of them he is offered one coin and so ends up with two, and in one of them he is offered 2 coins and so ends up with 3. On the other hand, whatever scenario B might be, there are always at least 6 possible proposals for pirate B in which pirate C is not the lucky pirate. If some pirate gets at most 332 coins in scenario B then this is clear, and it can also be checked that there are at least 8 such proposals when two of the pirates get 333 coins and the other one gets 334 in scenario B. So the expected takings of pirate B are at most (3*1 + 2*2 + 1*3)/(6 + 6) = 5/6 of a coin.
In order to maximise his takings, he must keep the number of possible proposals for pirate B in which he is not the lucky pirate down to 6. That is, he should aim to make scenario B such that he and at least one other pirate (who I'll call the successful pirate) each get at least 335 coins and the remaining pirate gets at least 2 coins. He can always achieve this by, for example, offering 335 coins to himself, 663 coins to whichever of pirates D and E gets least in scenario C, and the other 2 coins to the remaining pirate.
After he has made a proposal of this kind, it is equally likely that he or the successful pirate will become the lucky pirate when pirate B comes to make her proposal. The other pirate has no chance of becoming the lucky pirate. So it is imperative to pirate D that she should become the successful pirate. She can guarantee this by proposing to give at least 663 coins to pirate E and to take the rest herself.
We now have a complete understanding of what will happen. Pirate E will propose to take all the gold. Then pirate D will choose a random number from 663 to 1000 and propose to give that many coins to pirate E, taking the rest herself. Pirate C will then pick a random proposal in which he and pirate D each get at least 335 coins and pirate E gets at least 2, and will make that proposal. Pirate B will choose pirate C or pirate D at random to be the lucky pirate, then pick a random proposal in which she gets exactly 332 coins and each of the unlucky pirates gets at least 333. Finally, pirate A will propose to give pirate B 333 coins and the lucky pirate one more coin than in B's proposal and to take the rest for himself, and this proposal will be accepted.
So each of the distributions 664:333:3:0:0 and 664:333:0:3:0 has a 1 in 12 chance of occurring (here the amounts given to the pirates are listed in order of decreasing seniority from A to E). The distributions 665:333:2:0:0 and 665:333:0:2:0 each have a 1 in 6 chance of occurring and the distributions 666:333:1:0:0 and 666:333:0:1:0 each have a 1 in 4 chance of occurring. The expected takings of the pirates are, in order from A to E, 665 and a third, 333, 5/6, 5/6 and 0.

Two Toes of King Psamtik I Statue Excavated in Cairo
Egypt's Ministry of Antiquities
Date: 25-09-2017
Source: Egypt Independent
The Egyptian-German archaeological mission operating in Matariya area discovered on Sunday two toes belonging to the statue of King Psamtik I, which was excavated in March, sources with the Antiquities Ministry told Al-Masry Al-Youm on Monday. The statue was mistaken for King Ramses II in March before the Antiquities Ministry announced it belonged to Psamtik I. The mission also found the statue's pedestal made of limestone and bearing a hieroglyphic inscription, the sources added, pointing out that the pedestal was partially damaged by groundwater. The mission is keeping quiet on this discovery, hoping to find more remains of the statue, because finding the toes and the pedestal confirmed the possibility of finding the rest of the statue in the same place, according to the sources. The discovered parts so far represent 40 percent of the huge statue, said the sources. The excavated parts were transferred to the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square and will be transferred later to the Grand Egyptian Museum, said Antiquities Minister Khaled al-Anany. The statue belongs to King Psamtik I, and not Ramses II, Anany said, adding that Psamtik I belonged to the 26th Dynasty, and ruled Egypt for 54 years. Parts of the eight-meter statue were found submerged in groundwater in the Matariya area in Ain Shams district at the location where King Ramses II is believed to have built his Temple, in a city called Oun in Ancient Egypt. The discovery included parts from two statues of two kings, one of who is King Psamtik I. Anany said in March the discovery was one of the most important ones made in recent archaeological digs, as it demonstrates the greatness of the temple in ancient times in terms of the magnitude of the building and the statues that were adorned by fine, precise patterns and inscriptions.

Mummysmilk.com is the official distributor of the Mooncup in Singapore.
The Mooncup is produced to ISO 13485:2003: a regulated quality management system specifically requiring that the services provided by an organisation "consistently meets customer and regulatory requirements aplicable to medical devices and related services".
Do you find sanitary napkins very uncomfortable to use?
Been using tampons but are afraid of Toxic Shock Syndrome? Don't like the idea of loading the world's sewage systems and landfills with disposables and paper? But simply don't know what else to do about your menstrual needs? Then it's time you heard about the Mooncup.
What is the Mooncup?
The Mooncup is a bell-shaped menstrual cup about two inches long and made from soft silicone rubber. It is made in the UK and worn internally. It forms a seal with your vaginal walls, allowing your menstrual fluid to pass into the Mooncup without leakage or odour.
Best of all, when you wear it, you can't feel it!
Why is it better?
The Mooncup contains no bleaches, deodorisers or absorbency gels. It does not interfere with your healthy vaginal environment, nor has it been associated with toxic shock syndrome. (See bottom of page for more on TSS.)
The smooth surface of the Mooncup allows the mucus membranes of your vaginal wall to continue their essential cleansing and protective functions. It does not absorb your body's natural defence mechanisms and will not deposit fibres in your vaginal wall.
For your safety, the Mooncup is made from a special medical grade non-allergic silicone - the kind heart valves and catheters are made of -- and will not cause irritation. It is suitable for women who have an allergy to rubber products.
The Mooncup is reusable, so you don't need to carry bulky spares around. With proper care your Mooncup will last for at least ten years -- imagine the towels and tampons that you will be disposing of in landfill sites during that time, not to mention the burden on your wallet!
How do I use it?
To put it simply, in just three steps: Wash, relax, insert.
Correctly inserted, the Mooncup is so comfortable that you will forget it exists. It may take a little practice at first, as you need to find the angle and position that is right for you.
Once you have perfected it you will be amazed at how simple the Mooncup is to use. You will need to empty, rinse or wipe and reinsert your Mooncup every 4 to 8 hours depending on your flow. The fluid remains inside the cup, and the process is not messy or uncomfortable.
The Mooncup can safely be used overnight and is great for all sports, swimming and traveling.
How do I clean it?
To clean your Mooncup during your period, wash with water, or mild, non-perfumed soap. Rinse thoroughly after using soap.
To clean your Mooncup after your period, boil it immersed in water for about 5 mins OR use sterilising fluid (the kind commonly used to sterilise baby bottles).
The hymen is a thin membrane which partially covers the opening to the vagina. By the time you started menstruating, your hymen may have stretched or torn through activities such as horse riding or other sports. You may or may not have noticed this happening. If your hymen is intact and you have strong personal or cultural feelings about keeping it intact, we would not advise that you use any internal sanitary protection as, although you can use a Mooncup with an intact hymen, inserting it will stretch or tear it. If you have any questions, or would like to discuss this further please email Mooncup Advice.
Many women are successfully using a Mooncup alongside an IUD/IUS. However, there have been some instances where an IUD/IUS has become dislodged when using the devices together, possibly due to anatomical factors (e.g. a low cervix), usage issues (e.g. wearing the Mooncup too high) or simply that the IUD/IUS has been naturally rejected by the body; one in twenty IUD/IUS will be expelled, most commonly, in the first 3 months after the IUD/IUS has been inserted. IUD/IUS expulsions happen most frequently during menstruation.
If you are considering using the Mooncup alongside an IUD/IUS you may wish to discuss this with your doctor/nurse/gynaecologist first. If you have decided to use both devices together, please contact us for more information.
Which size is right for me?
Still not convinced?
Initially you may find the idea of the Mooncup unattractive and scary. Perhaps it is messy, uncomfortable or unhygienic? This is a consistent first reaction to the menstrual cup, and one well worth reconsidering.
Most of us have grown up in an era, which offered no alternative to disposable feminine hygiene products, and this fact has contributed to the way in which we think about our periods and menstruation. However, the benefits of using the Mooncup and the rave reviews of users in the UK have prompted Mummysmilk to bring it in.
Still not sure? Click on TESTIMONIALS to read about other women's experiences with the Mooncup!
At the same time, Mooncup Ltd. has set up a comprehensive advice service which you can contact if you have any other queries about any aspects of Mooncup use. If you are unhappy with your Mooncup in any way, you can also contact them at email@example.com.
If you're in Singapore and need immediate help with your Mooncup, call 81212840.
What is Toxic Shock Syndrome?
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a type of blood poisoning that will make you feel severely ill very quickly. TSS is caused by the common bacteria Staphylococcus aureus which normally live harmlessly on the skin and in the nose, armpit, groin or vagina of one in every three people.
Anyone can get TSS although it is very rare. Half of reported cases in the UK were from women who used tampons. About 2 or 3 people die of TSS in the UK each year. Younger people are more susceptible to TSS than older people, as they would have built up more antibodies to fight it.
The symptoms are like a severe flu - dizziness, fever, vomiting, muscle aches, and confusion. It is VERY important that you go straight to a doctor if you suspect you are suffering from TSS.
Research suggests that for cases that occur in women using tampons, tampon absorbency is a factor.
If you have more questions or need help with folding and inserting your Mooncup, pls check out our Mooncup Resource pages.
The Mooncup is not returnable or exchangeable for hygiene purposes. If you are having problems with your Mooncup, please contact us.

Who says people on the left (outside of Jon Stewart) don't have a sense of humor? Or at least of dry satire?
What else to make of this piece by Matthew Lynch at the Puffington Host on "Why Obama Is One of the Best Presidents Ever." Given its appearance on the PuffHo I was nearly taken in by it ingenious irony, but I am not that easily fooled. I mean Lynch's 12 reasons have some really funny dry humor:
Sure, he has committed his share of blunders and tripped over his own words from time to time. But, there isn't a president in American history who didn't flub up big time at some point during his administration. While I acknowledge he has made a number of mistakes in recent years, I stand firm in my conviction that Barack Obama is one of the greatest presidents America has ever seen. I believe history will prove this, and with time, he will be remembered in the annals of history as a revered revolutionary.
Here are 12 reasons why Obama is one of the best presidents ever:
- He is for The People. [My comment: Good to see "People" capitalized. That's high up there in the leftist copy-edit style manual.]
- He is for civil rights. [Just not equal rights.]
- He is for one race—the human race.
- He is for a healthcare system that brings hope and healing to the hurting. [Okay so the material is starting to get a little thin, and the laughs a little more shallow. . .]
- He is for the middle class. [Now that is clever.]
- He is for peace. [I hear Obama has some fancy prize to prove it, though it may be hidden behind a drone-strike manual on his shelf.]
It goes on like this for six more reasons, all with additional commentary that I've omitted here.
Not to be outdone, Matthew Waldman at the American Prospect (shouldn't it really be called the Post-American Prospect?) has an article with the headline "The Media Need To Do More to Help People Navigate Obamacare." Because, you know, the media hasn't done enough to help out Obama over the years. They owe him, by golly.
As I say, this is a nice attempt at humor, but I don't think either of these guys ought to try out at the Improv.

Everyone knows what the San Diego Comic Con is. If you don't, you probably don't know that Chris Brown's still a dick and E.T. went home years ago.
If you AREN'T going to Comic Con, none of this really matters right now anyway because it's been sold out since like, a year before the Space Shuttle retired and whole world suddenly cared about Instagram and Bigfoot hunting.
But if you ARE going, and you aren't too exhausted from seeing Harry Potter for the 4th time or hungover from your Uncharted 3 Beta tournament, please come by my ZEROFRIENDS BOOTH (#5502) and witness all of the BRAND NEW & EXCLUSIVE artifacts of awesome that we are unveiling onto your faces (pending the correct exchange of moneys of course:).

See above, we are actually located in the FRONT RIGHT CORNER of the convention center, in row 500/400!! If you get lost, refer to that awesomely clear (with cool font) map above.

"The Tourist Shirt" is dope. The end.

It went so well last year that we are doing it again! We are selling a HUGE PILE of "OOPS" Giclee prints! These prints did not meet up to our general quality standards in one way or another, whether it was slight color differences, or a bent corner, or something. They are all stamped with a nice "OOPS" stamp to assure that they are not a part of the general limited run, but aside from that, once framed, they should be just as awesome, if you like mistakes that is!
"OOPS!" Prints range from $5.00 to $15.00. We will be putting out at random about 20-30 oops prints each morning to give everyone a fair chance, as there are certainly some gems in there.
Zerofriends is proud to team up with Gallery 1988 to both sell their new amazing art book "CRAZY 4 CULT" as well as host a few signings with some of the artists (in addition to me) featured in the book. So check out the schedule above and come by, pick up the book, and get it signed by artists Luke Chueh, Scott C, Eric Tan, myself, NC Winters & MORE! Hardcover book, $35.00.
AND AS A ZEROFRIENDS EXCLUSIVE BONUS FOR COMIC CON ONLY, Each day the first 25 people to purchase the "CRAZY 4 CULT" Art Book will receive this signed mini-print designed by me for the CRAZY 4 CULT 5 art show!

Now, in our first official branch-collaboration, Zerofriends is proud to announce and release our "CRITICAL HIT" line, a brand new Zerofriends-line of clothes and prints from the one and only SKINNER!!!

These fabulous birch-wood limited screenprints will be released at the Hi-Fructose Magazine booth # 4939 alongside some other amazing wood prints. I will be on hand to sign these, as well as anything else you may have on THURSDAY, JULY 21 at 2PM at the Hi Fructose Booth!
I teamed up with The Witness (Tyke) and Toynami to release a special design from their "CANMAN" Series of collectible toys. Tyke has been one of my favorite graffiti writers since the early 90's so it was awesome to team up with him on a project as cool as this. You can pick one of these quality cans up at the Toynami Booth #3229!
And for REALS lastly, we have been sitting on this for a few weeks and I am excited to finally share this with you.

Wayland to offer three graduate degrees online
PLAINVIEW – Wayland Baptist University will begin offering its first completely online degrees in the next term after gaining approval from its accrediting agency.
Earlier this month, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools approved the proposal that Wayland offer three master's degrees from the university in the areas of human resource management, public administration and Christian ministry, all completely available through the Internet.
The Master of Christian Ministry and the Master of Public Administration degrees will be offered online beginning in the November winter term in conjunction with the Virtual Campus, which operates on a quarterly term schedule. The 11-week terms will feature several courses applicable toward the degrees. The Master of Arts in Management degree with the specialization in Human Resources Management will be offered in the spring term, also following the Virtual Campus schedule.
Wayland has been offering individual classes online since 1998 but has never offered a full degree. What started as a way to supplement materials for business courses evolved into courses being offered online. According to Dr. David Howle, director of the Virtual Campus for the past three years, the move to an online degree is a natural progression.
"There's been a growth in administrative understanding of the potential for this, and that has spurred (online degrees) to happen sooner. Folks are opening up to the idea that this can be done with integrity and students can have the same Wayland experience," Howle said, adding, "Our fall term had the largest enrollment we've ever had with more than 1,800 enrollments or 1,200 students. The winter term will have 110 sections available."
Dr. Bobby Hall, provost and vice president for academic services and graduate studies, said the fully online offerings represent several years of work by many members of Wayland's faculty and administrators.
"The combined efforts of many members of the Wayland community have made this possible," said Hall. "Dr. Howle has done a masterful job in leading the Virtual Campus to this achievement. Division chairpersons Dr. Otto B. Schacht, Dr. Estelle Owens, Dr. Paul Sadler and his predecessor, Dr. Fred Meeks, worked diligently with their faculty to design an outstanding educational experience. Members of the Virtual Campus Task Force and the directors and employees in almost every Wayland staff office are also to be commended for their contributions. Obviously, we are excited about Wayland's future."
Hall was positive about the extended reach that online degrees would allow Wayland to have, both to areas without Christian education readily accessible and to current student populations who need the schedule flexibility that online coursework provides.
"Such programs make it possible for previously unreached students around the world to benefit from a Wayland education. We will also be better able to serve many existing students, particularly military students facing deployment or relocation," Hall said. "While traditional face-to-face courses will always lie at the focal point of higher education, the growth of online education nationally makes it apparent that the university poised for future success will also have a robust online component. We intend to implement additional online degree programs in the future."
The MPA, approved just this past summer, will be formatted in order to allow individuals to complete the 37-hour degree in as little as two years. The degree is aimed at those seeking careers or advancement in justice administration or government administration, and two tracks are offered depending on the student's focus. The degree focuses on both justice administration issues and business and ethics coursework to give students a well-rounded foundation in the fields of justice or government.
The degree meets a need for the region as more jobs in justice administration fields and in government come available and more current employees seek to advance into administrative roles. The online format makes the degree easier to work around a full-time job, regardless of the shift worked.
The MCM degree has been offered for several years as a practical Biblical study degree for those entering or currently in ministry. The degree has been offered in Plainview and on several other Wayland campuses and many courses will still be available in the traditional classroom setting on those campuses.
"We are excited about making our degree more accessible to people around the world," said Dr. Paul Sadler, chair of the Division of Religion and Philosophy. "It's a way for us to offer help to those in outlying areas not just in their educational goals, but also in ministering to them and encouraging them through those courses."
The MAM will be offered online through a cohort program in the Division of Business, offered solely through the Plainview campus. Currently only the specialization in Human Resource Management will be available online. The MAM – HRM will be advertised on military installations that do not currently have a Wayland presence.
"We are striving to attract students that have not previously had a relationship with Wayland Baptist University. Our intent is to 'Light the Way' in places untraveled by WBU," said Schacht, business division chair. The program, he added, was designed not to compete with any of the existing programs in place.
Admissions requirements for the online degrees are consistent with current graduate admissions, including an admissions application, transcripts from previously attended universities showing receipt of the bachelor's degree and any required graduate entrance exam scores.
For more information on the online degrees, contact the office of graduate services and records at (806) 291-3414, Schacht at 291-1022, Sadler at 291-1163 or Owens at 291-1171.

Cahill's late goal sees N.Y. down L.A.
Harrison, NJ – Red Bull New York left it late against the Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday as Tim Cahill scored at the death in a 1-0 victory at Red Bull Arena.
Both sides traded scoring chances throughout the match, but the final blow was dealt by the home side as Cahill nodded home a free kick in the first minute of stoppage time to help New York (7-4-3) maintain its first place position in the Eastern Conference with 24 points.
Los Angeles (5-4-2) has lost three of its last four league matches to remain stuck on 17 points for the season.
The Red Bulls had the first great chance of the match when Fabian Espindola chipped a shot over the on-rushing Carlo Cudicini in the 28th minute. The shot trickled slowly toward goal but A.J. DeLaGarza tracked back to clear the ball off the line.
Los Angeles came within inches of breaking the deadlock just before halftime when Robbie Keane's superb free kick forced an even better save out of Luis Robles, who pushed the effort over the crossbar by the skin of his fingertips.
There was more good play to come from Robles as the Red Bulls 'keeper produced a string of fine saves in the second half to keep the visitors off the board.
The clean sheet proved to be vital as the Red Bulls nicked a late goal to steal all three points. Juninho delivered an perfect free kick into the penalty area that rooted Cudicini to his line and Cahill took advantage, sending his glancing header into the back of the net from inside the six-yard box.
It was Cahill's fourth goal of the season, all of which have come in the club's last five games. The Australian has been a key figure during New York's six-game unbeaten run, a streak that it will hope to extend in its next outing against the Columbus Crew on May 26.
The Galaxy will attempt to get back on the right track when they host Seattle Sounders FC at The Home Depot Center next Sunday.

Avoid that at all costs. Stop it first on a personal level, and you will have contributed to world sanity as well as your own."
We believe Donald Trump said it best.
L.D. "Doug" Chapman, age 83 of Carrollton, died Sunday, April 6, 2008, at his residence in Carrollton. He was the son of the late Wilbert and Lillian Roberts Chapman, graduate of Campbellsburg High School, attended the University of Kentucky, a U.S. Army Air Corps veteran serving in both WWII and the Korean War achieving the rank of Master Sergeant.
We are standing at a crossroad in history. This has been and will be a record-breaking presidential election, in more ways than one. And for the first time in a long time, Kentucky voters will play a crucial role in selecting the presidential nominees. The Republican presidential primary has already been decided and they have quite a formidable candidate in Senator John McCain. But it's the Democratic race that still has many people on the edge.
For the third year in a row, Henry County residents will have the opportunity to visit their very own Community Health Fair. On Saturday April 19 from 9 am to 12 pm the Eminence Community Center will host a health fair for the residents of Henry County. Henry County Public Schools and Eminence Independent Schools including FRYSC, YSC and School Health Services in collaboration with the Henry County Health Department have organized a health event for the entire family.
We would like to thank each and everyone who attended, worked, or contributed in any way to the Marilyn Moore Benefit held on March 21. The benefit was a huge success. Once again, the people of this county opened their arms and hearts and proved why this is the best county in the world to live in.
On a beautiful spring morning as I was traveling down Bullitt Hill Road on my way to work, I was enjoying the bright green of the new landscape. Then, something caught my eye on the side of the road. Not wild flowers nor dogwood blossoms nor redbud sprigs, but a fresh, garish orange and white McDonalds bag! A few rolls of the wheels on the opposite side was a red Miller carton (empty for certain). Bright colors, but ugly trash!
It's time for the Eminence City Council to remove the rose-colored glasses and take a hard look at the feasibility of re-opening the city's pool.
Officials initially believed the pool repairs could run the city as little as $12,000. That belief was hopelessly naive.
As the pool committee and council looked a little deeper at cost estimates for the pool's repair, the price tag rose from $15,000-$30,000 to more than $150,000.
The citizen's group "Making Waves" has gone beyond "waves" and "frog pond" to tsunami and "the Eminence Money Pit."
I wanted my senior project to mean something. I wanted it to somehow help the community, but I also wanted it to be different. I knew I wanted two things to come out of my project. That was to raise money for juvenile diabetes and to have the Kentucky State University Phi Beta Sigma to perform at our school. I also wanted to feed the volunteers that helped me with my project. I mailed out letters to the surrounding businesses asking for donations for a silent auction or to help feed the volunteers. I made flyers and put them up at different locations.
Since April is recognized as Donate Life Month both nationally and here in Kentucky, I feel that this is a good time to thank the many Henry Countians who have supported organ and tissue donation at our drivers license counter by donating $1 in support of our Kentucky Circuit Court Clerks Trust for Life and by placing their name on the new Kentucky Organ Donor Registry.
There is a law of human nature that says at least ten percent of the people in churches, families, clubs, or at work are always "negative" about plans, projects or ideas.
They are the people who say, "Yeah, he can walk on water but that's because he can't swim."
Resistance, rumor and ridicule are what they practice.
But no project or plan, even if it's a positive plan for the children of our community, can be successful if we become distracted by the ten percent.
The first sentence in last week's Henry County Local concerning the judgment rendered against Bill Covington implies that he stole from Farmers Deposit Bank. I think most readers will interpret this to mean that he stole money for personal gain, for the benefit of his family or close friends. It is an extremely misleading statement. None, I repeat, none of the charges brought against Bill Covington charges him with the taking of or the manipulation of funds to benefit himself, family or close personal friends.
On March 18, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments for District of Columbia v. Heller, a case which questions whether the District of Columbia's gun ban violates the Second Amendment. This is the first Second Amendment case taken up by the Supreme Court since 1939. As you may know, the rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment have been severely limited in the nation's capital for the last thirty-two years.
This is a community rich in people - and those people have rich stories to tell. Unraveling those stories is at the root of journalism. Sometimes those stories can be provoked by asking the right questions: the whos, whats, wheres, whens and whys. Other times it requires tips from community sources. In some cases, it requires deeper probing.
While reporters have long been the "watchdogs" of public accountability, few likely know that most of the information journalists rely on to develop stories is readily accessible to them - as long as you know where to look.
I am a vet. technician that has been in the business for 18 years. I feel that pit bull terriers are being targeted. Terriers in general are a breed that need a special kind of owner, someone who will have the upper hand. They can be strong willed, hard headed and will try to be number one in the family pack.
I am writing in support of Alexandra Guidry's proposal published in last week's Local. She gave me hope for the younger generation when she advocated for door-to door recycling. I appreciated her idea very much, though I suspect we are a long way from having our recyclables picked up at our doors.
The pool is going to be a great thing for the kids. Hopefully all Eminence kids will be able to enjoy the pool and concession stands this summer. The Eminence City Council and Mayor will probably make the decision as to how much the admission fee will be and the rules of the season passes.
Last week when I read the article entitled "Council Awards Pool Bid," I was shocked! The article mentioned that the meeting was at times contentious. If I read it correctly, it appears that at one or two times during the meeting, people were close to "blows and subject to verbal abuse." This is sad because instead of bringing the community closer together, "the pool" seems to have divided the citizens of Eminence.

Scored Twice In 2-1 Win Over Columbia
NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Brad Rose, who scored both Yale goals in a 2-1 victory over Columbia on Saturday, was named the Ivy League Player of the Week. Rose, a junior from Toronto, Ontario, now leads the Bulldogs with six goals and 16 points.
James Prince scored for Columbia at 20:25, but Rose answered with a pair of goals in a 3 minute, 22 second stretch late in the first half. The first came when he headed in a Jon Carlos cross at 31:55 and the second was on a hard shot from 15 yards out at 35:17.
Rose is the second Yale player to be honored this year. Scott Armbrust was named the Rookie of the Week on Sept. 21.
Yale (5-7-3, 2-3 Ivy) hosts Brown on Saturday at 4:30 p.m. at Reese Stadium.

"With this collection," she said, "I wanted to put the room on the woman, rather than the woman in the room." Without a doubt, Katrantzou's vision came alive on the runway showcasing her collection. The idea based behind the collection was to create architectural pieces in three dimensional art, making the pieces not only desirable, but a sort of story within an item as well. Style.com mentions two examples: one was a dress whose top half featured a swimming pool in an L.A. house above a view of the city from the balcony of that house. The other used a view of a dining room table as a skirt with a perspective of the room it stood in rising up the bodice.
It was not only these breath-taking pictures that made Katrantzou's collection come alive, but the fabrics she used, as well. Window frames were created, surrounded by bits of fluttering chiffon that stood for lifelike curtains. She even added lampshades with real, dangling crystals. Chandeliers and wall decor worn as oversized necklaces completed the look, along with shoes in dashing colors that brought out hues in Katrantzou's designs. The overall effect was just lovely; it captured the extraordinarily real look of an architectural masterpiece with all the every-day wearability of an item of clothing.
Mary Katrantzou shines a light on the way fashion should always be portayed: as an art. She brings back the idea that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and something as simple as hard work and determination can create something reminiscent of magic. I will be anxiously awaiting Katrantzou's future collections, but until then, I'm sure her Spring 2011 collection will give me plenty to reflect on!
