After reading a review done by my good friend and colleague Wilfred Reinke (aka the Oshawa Ogre) on this sauce, I knew I had to give it a shot for a couple of reasons. First off, Dimples BBQ Sauce is a North Carolina product, and I'm always game for trying local products. Second, if it gets a great review from the Oshawa Ogre, then I'm more eager to try it!
A few weeks ago, Dimples BBQ Sauce ran a contest on Facebook giving away a bottle of sauce. While I did not win the contest, Rich from Dimples was gracious enough to send me a bottle to review. I finally got a chance to try it out tonight.
A little bit on Dimples — the sauce is the brain child of Rich Campana of Raleigh, NC. Like all good sauces, Dimples got its start from hearing people say over and over that they should sell the sauce.
Naked Observations
The sauce has a nice, smooth texture. There's not much in the way of spices or pepper flakes visibly present in the sauce. Thickness is good… not too thin, but not so thick that it's hard to pour out of the bottle.
So like I do with all sauces, I take a taste. WOW! This sauce has a great flavor! It's a great sweet and smoky sauce. Not a lot of heat on this sauce. All in all, my taste buds were jumping for joy, and I was looking forward to how it'd work on some meat.
To the Meat of the Matter
My wife pulled out some leftover pulled pork out of the freezer from a cook I did a couple of weekends ago. So it was time for some pulled pork sandwiches!
The sauce blended very very well with the pork! The flavors complemented the pork in a beautiful blend of BBQ harmony. I could use this sauce with just about everything — especially a nice rack of ribs!!
This is a sauce that I wholeheartedly recommend with no reservations whatsoever! Rich, if you're reading this… I can't wait for you to get your product into the Charlotte market!

SN 2010 NFL Comeback Player of the Year: Michael Vick
Former NFL coach Tony Dungy identifies three keys to Michael Vick's turnaround:
1. A change in lifestyle. I've been awfully proud of him off the field. That's probably been the biggest thing that he's done. All the things that he talked about doing when he signed with Philadelphia—doing things in the community, being a good parent, being a good teammate—that's what he has really set out to do.
2. Quality coaching. In talking to him, the biggest impact on the field, why he has improved so much, is being around Andy Reid and Marty Mornhinweg. He credits those two guys with really showing him the quarterback position, the way they want it done.
3. Improved work ethic. He has paid attention. He has worked hard, and he has become a very, very good pocket quarterback. He has meshed with the explosive guys they have. He has had a great year.

Heather B. Armstrong, aka Dooce — whom people persist in calling a "Mommy Blogger" even though she's so much more — was on Nightline last night, talking about her blog and her family. I particularly related to the sweet relationship between Heather and her husband, Jon, whom she calls a "hot geek." Jon talks about how when Heather first started the blog, he used to be really uncomfortable about her discussing their life. "I'm a more private person than Heather," Jon explains. But they clearly worked through it with grace, and now the blog is so successful that Jon works for Dooce. "I get to sleep with the boss legally!" Jon exclaims. Clip above.

Rox enjoy All-Star experiences despite loss
Cuddyer draws walk, Tulo makes nice defensive play for NL squad
NEW YORK -- The Rockies boasted three members of the National League's starting lineup for the first time in franchise history, but were unable to contribute a hit to the attack in a 3-0 loss to the American League in Tuesday night's All-Star Game at Citi Field.
Serving as the designated hitter, Michael Cuddyer wrapped up his night 0-for-1 with a walk, while left fielder Carlos Gonzalez and shortstop Troy Tulowitzki finished hitless in two at-bats.
Cuddyer said that the trip was worth it, however, just to be present for Mariano Rivera's final All-Star appearance. The Yankees closer entered in the eighth inning and recorded three outs before Joe Nathan set down the NL in the ninth for the save in the AL's first victory since 2009.
"It's exciting. It's what you dream of as a little kid," Cuddyer said. "Obviously, I wish we would've won, but to be at the All-Star Game, Mariano's last All-Star Game, to be able to experience that was special. He's the greatest of all time.
"Anytime you're in the midst of history like that, you've got to appreciate it. Even if it is a competition, you appreciate what he's done for this game, for this profession, the way he's carried himself and handled himself and the way he's dominated."
Gonzalez struck out swinging at a slider from White Sox left-hander Chris Sale in the second inning and grounded out to second base facing the Rays' Matt Moore in the fifth. His second All-Star appearance ended when was replaced in left field by the Phillies' Domonic Brown for the sixth inning.
"Every year is different. It never gets old," Gonzalez said. "This is only my second one, but it seems like every time just gets better and better. Being next to all these guys makes it a lot better, too.
"I'm really thankful for [the fans] because that's the only reason that I'm here today. I just try to enjoy when I play baseball. I just go out and compete every night. Those are the people who made me an All-Star."
Tulowitzki also struck out swinging at a Sale slider in the third inning and popped out to second base against Moore in the fifth. A three-time All-Star, Tulowitzki was replaced by the Brewers' Jean Segura at shortstop in the sixth inning.
"You just want to score," Tulowitzki said. "These pitchers are so tough, you feel like if you get on the board, you like your chances. But they got on the board before us."
Cuddyer, who hit 15 homers in Monday's Chevrolet Home Run Derby, worked a sixth-inning walk off A's closer Grant Balfour. A two-time All-Star, Cuddyer also grounded out softly back to the mound facing Sale in the third inning.
"Now, I'm 0-for-2 with a walk in my career in the All-Star Game, but it doesn't take away from the fact that I played in the All-Star Game," Cuddyer said.
Tulowitzki had some struggles in the field during the night, but was able to aid the NL team with his glove as he teamed with the Reds' Brandon Phillips to contribute some slick defense up the middle.
Tulowitzki made a nice play and feed to Phillips on a Mike Trout grounder in the fifth, as Phillips barehanded the ball while forcing out J.J. Hardy at second base before firing on to first to nail the speedy Trout.
"It was cool. Obviously being on the losing side stinks at any time, but being in the All-Star Game, I had a great time," Tulowitzki said. "I got to meet some great people and get a chance to play among the best players in the game."
Tulowitzki and Gonzalez were the first Rockies elected by fans since first baseman Todd Helton made the last of his three consecutive fan-voted starts in 2003. Cuddyer was selected via the player ballot.

The Christian community. In the Graeco‐Roman world of the 1st cent., there were many religious guilds and societies, but the Christians took over the word ecclesia from the LXX, where it denotes the assembly of the people of Israel; but unlike the word synagogue, also used in the LXX, ecclesia was not a peculiarly Jewish word: it was the ordinary word in classical Greek for a gathering of the people at the call of a herald, and is indeed used in Acts 19: 32 of a secular assembly. It was thus a fitting noun to apply to a society which included many Gentiles. But 'Church' is never used as today for a building, or for an independent group. The unity of the Church was maintained by the exchange of letters (Col. 4: 16) and visits from local churches (Heb. 13: 23–4).
Unlike Jews who had their national history and unique social life, Christians were distinguished only by their distinct religious beliefs and customs. The Church comprised former Jews and many 'god‐fearing' former adherents of the synagogues, but increasingly it also comprised Gentiles of miscellaneous backgrounds who nevertheless shared a community life which in some aspects resembled that of pagan clubs.
In Acts the word is sometimes used in the singular of a local Christian community but in 9: 31, it refers to the whole Church so far as it had then extended. In Acts 20: 28 Paul charges the elders of Ephesus 'to shepherd the Church of God that he obtained with the blood of his own Son', which must surely mean a body wider than the community at Ephesus: it points to the universal Church, as in 1 Cor. 16: 19, where the local Church which meets in a house seems to be regarded as one unit in a greater whole. In 1 Cor. 12: 28 Paul refers to those whom God has appointed in the Church—surely the universal Church—'apostles, prophets, etc.' So too Eph. 1: 22.
The universal Church is also mentioned under different names: 'the Israel of God' (Gal. 6: 16), 'the true people of the circumcision' (Phil. 3: 3, NJB), asserting the claim that the Church was both the continuation and consummation of the chosen people of the OT. The fullest description of the ecclesia in the NT is provided in 1 Pet. 2: 9—'a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's own people'. In John's gospel the disciples are one with Jesus, as he is one with the Father (10: 30; 17: 11) and they are the object of his love, especially those who were not already Jesus' contemporaries (20: 29); but it was not long before elders grieved for the deserters and apostasies (1 John 2: 19).
The English word 'Church' is therefore a very satisfactory rendering of ecclesia. The word, like the Scottish kirk and German Kirche (which Martin Luther detested and used mostly to denote the heathen shrines of the OT), is from the Greek kuriakos, 'belonging to the Lord'. Possibly the word Kirche was brought by traders up the Danube and down the Rhine. Wyclif was responsible for the word 'Church', and though Tyndale and Cranmer substituted 'congregation', this was changed back to 'Church' in AV, possibly because of Tyndale's absurd version of Acts 8: 1: 'There was a great persecution against the congregation which was at Jerusalem and they were all scattered', where ecclesia must refer not only to the body of Christians gathered as a congregation, but also to a corporate body, whether assembled or not.
The southern European nations derive their words (église etc.) directly from the Greek (and Latin) ecclesia.
Whether Jesus intended this Church continues to be debated. If he expected the world to end quite soon could he possibly have contemplated anything so long‐term as founding a Church? It is true that a small Aramaic‐speaking group based in rural Galilee became even within the NT era Greek‐speaking and urban and dispersed, slightly embarrassed about its apocalyptic origins and now gazing into an indefinite future, nevertheless there are indications in the synoptic gospels that the transition was not unprepared. Cf. Mark 13: 10. Mark ends his apocalyptic chapter (13: 32) with a warning to any Christians who supposed the end to be near; not even Jesus knows when the end will come. There is indeed to be a future judgement, but Jesus says that God's saving power is to be experienced in the present (Luke 11: 20); the kingdom is within the disciples' grasp (Luke 17: 20–21); it is present when evil is met with love and mercy rather than with hate and violence, and it is to be present above all in Jesus' suffering and death. Jesus has necessarily employed the concepts that were available to him, and then given them new content. The Reign of God, he said, is breaking into human affairs, but there will be an interval before the Reign is wholly and unconditionally present. It is in this interim period that the Church must work, and Jesus made provision for a community of disciples. The term 'Son of Man', derived from Dan. 7, where he represents 'the saints' (AV), involved the notion of community; but it is not possible to assign the foundation of the Church to a particular day or hour, such as after Peter's confession. Rather, the Church was created by the totality of the life and death and resurrection of Jesus. The words of Jesus reported in Matt. 16: 18 and 18: 17 are the only instances in the gospels of the word ecclesia, and are unlikely to be authentic words of Jesus, since the kind of authority there promised to Peter (16: 18) was never in fact enjoyed by him, so far as the NT evidence suggests. In Matt. 18: 17 it is the local Church community that is referred to—so that at the time of the composition of Matthew the Church was seen as a universal body with local manifestations.
Admission to the Church was by baptism, but the ideals of holiness were far from being achieved. Although membership of the Church was open to all, Jews and Gentiles, slaves and free, rich and poor, men and women, in practice social differentiations sometimes persisted (1 Cor. 11: 21), as did typically Greek fondness for lawsuits (1 Cor. 6: 1–11). False teachings and unseemly behaviour crept in (1 John 4: 1–6; 1 Tim. 4: 1–5) but nevertheless the quality of corporate Christian life did attract converts, and it seems that outsiders might be present at worship (1 Cor. 14: 16), which would consist of prophecies and teaching, singing and readings from the OT, and Eucharistic celebrations on the first day of the week (1 Cor. 16: 2). At some meetings, Paul had asked for a collection to be taken to assist Christians in Jerusalem who were destitute in a time of famine as a result of disposing of all their capital (Acts 4: 34), and it proved a godsend to Paul as a means of holding together the Gentiles of his Churches and the Jewish Christians ('the saints') in Jerusalem (2 Cor. 9: 1–5), as well as being a way of putting pressure on the latter to overcome their reservations about his Gentile mission.
The subsequent expansion of the Church and its growth exceeding that of its religious competitors was partly due to its being a transnational group. Moreover, it offered, unlike others, a recognized status for women and organized care for the sick.

Video: First Golden Ray Section Lifted and Removed
Salvors finished cutting and lifting the first section of the capsized car carrier Golden Ray on Sunday, and the section was carried by barge to a local site for further sea fastening before transport to Louisiana for recycling.Delays during the first round of cutting operations, including those caused by a passing tropical storm and equipment issues, are among a string of setbacks to impact one of America's most complex salvage projects. But the response team hopes that lessons learned along the way will help to streamline the work ahead. "This is our first major milestone in the removal operation.
Interview: John Batten, CEO, Twin Disc
How have major events such as the U.S./China trade war, oil price fall and COVID-19 impacted Twin Disc's commercial marine business to date, and what adjustments have you made in response?These are the three things that I've been highlighting in employee communications and with investors over the last few months. For us, COVID was just the third punch after the other two. China is typically our second largest market after the U.S., and we lost lots of orders to our competitors as the trade war started to affect us. It's rebounding a little, but it definitely impacted our sales into China. The Russia/OPEC oil price war didn't help either.
Oldendorff Names First of Four Hantong Newbuilds

I don't typically care for films that begin with a political agenda, only to fill in the story later (see "Lions for Lambs," "John Q." or even "Avatar" as examples).
When I go to the movies, I prefer to watch fascinating stories told in the visual medium, where, like any good art, the inherent truths seep through and resonate deeper than my gag reflex. But when a movie is trying so hard to shove its message down my throat, it rarely gets any deeper.
Which makes my review of "Snitch" conflicted.
Advertisement - story continues below
On one hand, this movie clearly has a political agenda – to portray as unjust and corrupted the mandatory minimum sentence laws for drug traffickers. The characters are cast as victims to these pitiless laws, and at least three times during the movie I felt the story was interrupted so the actors could bring us a public service announcement about these allegedly heinous laws.
On the other hand, when the PSAs were over, the stuff in between made for a pretty good movie, and one rife with parallels to deeper truths of self-sacrificial love and the fatherhood of God.
TRENDING: Appeals court to review Trump's Pennsylvania case
Perhaps because I have no particularly strong feelings or close relation to the laws in question, I was able to set aside the agenda and actually enjoy "Snitch" for the story.
And don't let the muscle-bound tough guy on the poster fool you – this is not an action flick; it's a story, and one told with heart.
Advertisement - story continues below
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson stars in an unusual role for him – a father whose son has been unjustly imprisoned for drug crimes and who determines to risk his life to help the Drug Enforcement Agency in order to secure a deal that reduces his son's sentence. He gets mixed up in a strange and seedier world than he's accustomed to, crawling with deception, cartels and death. Yet "Snitch" is not about drug wars so much as it is about a father who will go to any length to save his children.
The supporting cast in the film is fairly strong, particularly Susan Sarandon and John Bernthal, who surround Johnson's storyline with compelling performances of their own.
And for most of the film, Johnson does an excellent job in his role. His natural charisma and surprising acting skills carry him well through the scenes where he's front and center; and when pressed into the film's more action moments, he's an action star.
Unfortunately, whenever he's on screen with a costar to carry on a conversation, Johnson becomes clumsy and wooden. He just doesn't do dialogue well and looks amateurish, particularly when contending with a force like Sarandon.
Yet all these caveats aside, and fully recognizing this film has a political agenda (I confess, I'm not sure how I feel about the mandatory minimum sentence laws), there's plenty to like about this positive, redemptive tale of a broken father going to great lengths to restore his relationship with his son.
Advertisement - story continues below
There's also plenty of moments that parallel the truths of Scripture that could serve as moments to illustrate the love of God and the sacrifice of Christ.
For example, when Johnson's character promises his son that he'll rescue him from prison, the son asks, understandably, "How?"
"You just gotta trust me," the father replies. "I love you."
It's only a few words, but in it resonates the cry of our heavenly Father, "You just gotta trust me. I love you."
Advertisement - story continues below
I couldn't help but enjoy the parallel in another scene when a DEA officer explains that to free his son, the father will have to risk his life. The officer explains that drug cartels often ask people to carry "backpacks" of money over the border, then kill their "mules" on the other side. To earn the DEA chief's favor and secure his child's pardon, the father may never come back from Mexico.
"This is one serious backpack you're about to carry," the agent warns him.
I couldn't help but wonder if a similar thought when through Jesus' mind when contemplating the cross He would bear across His shoulders, the death He would face, to secure our pardon.
"That is one serious backpack you're about to carry," He may have said to Himself.
A surprisingly solid and positive story in the midst of Hollywood's slow season, when Tinsel Town typically dumps forgettable films on the market, "Snitch" is a movie worth remembering … at least when you visit the rental store.
Content advisory:
- "Snitch" is rated PG-13, with roughly 45 obscenities and profanities.
- The movie's only sexuality is a shirtless man and a pair of kisses between husband and wife. There's also a brief comment from a politician that to curry favor with liberal constituents she should attend "a gay wedding."
- The film does contain some violence and plenty of gun-brandishing. Johnson's character gets caught in a drug cartel shoot-out, another character storms a drug house and kills several people and there's a lengthy car-chase scene involving guns, crashes and the like. A bit of blood and a few wounds are seen.
- The film has no significant religious or occult content save for a cross worn around a woman's neck and perhaps a particular tattoo.

I'm pleased to report that our menagerie (my hubby and I included) have arrived, safe and sound in North Carolina! Thankfully, our trip was mostly uneventful. We had only one hiccup along the way and that occurred in our very own driveway in California. We had packed the bed of the pickup truck with oodles of stuff including a wooden table. With the very first turn out of our driveway, the gooseneck of the horse trailer pushed the corner of that table right through the rear window of our pick up truck. The result was an explosive noise and flying glass. Fortunately, no one was injured, but I've never witnessed two dogs fly from the back seat of a vehicle into the front so quickly! We cleaned up the shattered glass, used cardboard and "gorilla tape" to replace the missing window, took a really deep breath, and headed east. The remainder of the trip was smooth sailing.
Our overnights were spent in Bakersfield, California (where our younger dog Quinn was rescued from a "kill shelter"), Flagstaff, Arizona (a gorgeous place), Tucumcari, New Mexico (I love the way the name of this town rolls off my tongue, but never have our dog's feet encountered such nasty stickers), Cromwell, Oklahoma (this year a tornado, an earthquake, and a severe drought have ravaged the area), and Jackson, Tennessee where we truly felt like we were in the "east" for the first time.
We encountered fabulous people at every overnight stop along the way. All had fascinating stories to share about their lives and why they ended up where they have. The common thread for all of our hosts was a profound love for animals as evidenced by properties filled with horses, dogs, cats, sheep, goats, cattle, and donkeys. Michelle, our host in Cromwell, Oklahoma has several adorable rescue dogs desperately in need of homes. If you live anywhere near Cromwell and are ready to add a new member to your own menagerie, please let me know and I will put you in touch with Michelle. By the way, she also has a rescue horse she is hoping to rehome.
We arrived at our North Carolina home in lovely 70-degree weather and some remaining fall color. Some of the leaves are such brilliant shades of red and orange, that trees appear as if they are on fire. After six days on the road, we all thoroughly enjoyed stretching our legs. My husband's horse galloped around his new pasture (I am currently horseless, but hopefully not for too much longer), our kitty enjoyed inspecting her new surroundings, and my husband, the dogs, and I took a long hike through a six inch carpet of crisp leaves. The dogs must have run a good five miles on our one-mile hike. It feels great for all of us to be in our new home and we are looking forward to celebrating Thanksgiving here.
Have you ever moved cross-country with animals in tow? If so, would you ever consider doing it again?
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones,

Did you try|netset,"... Pw=123"+chr%(34)+"abc...."?Instead of % thr dollar sign (currently with my mobile)
@00WReX @remaxPlease try this one:http://www.spinpoint.org/cpc/m4diag.zipIt will take a bit longer than before.Afterwards there should be a report.txt in the root of microSDPlease let me know the results.Also it should bring your romboard/mass storage back alive.Thank you.
Just to let you know that i had exaclty the same problem as @00WReX & @remax Apllying this fixed it Thanks @Duke for the great support
v1.0.9 final i think, but not sure.Please find attached the report.txt if it could help.
Hi AllCould somebody post the Rom list that you use on your Machine and the ? Slot ? Position using the M4 and X-Mem Please.Thanks Ray
well appers delete las character of ssid dont affect to my mobile he connet same wtf.Duke, can you help me?. My (512k) cartridges not appear to work with m4. I not sure if is my fault. Or simply a time problem with c4cpc.C4cpc take little time load the cartridge.I observed boot with m4 cpc only show vertical bars.But when booting without sd card inserted in m4 it boot.
How are these roms mapped in C4CPC, I mean what physical ROM positions do they occupy?And what is your setting of M4 board (romboard start position, M4 rom position, Lowerrom position) ?- M4 will issue ROMDIS, which C4CPC obeys (afair. gerald said that), so it may be disabling some of your roms if there is overlaps.
Cartridge roms are from &80-&9F(31 roms).My settings are default you send me. m4 rom is set to rom 6 as default, i try in rom 7 and effect is the same. I not have put lower rom substitute with m4.My cartridges not works as you put normal rom in the cpc. I simply rehuse the |game alternatives and made it jump to the requerired rom/direction.So the os not know the roms are there until they was called manually.Amsdos have little modification of remap burning rubber jumps, but nothing more. The only conflict i can think is you scanned the roms in area &80-&9f and crash in someway. The roms are adapted and not are suitable to be detected in normal way.In the other version with parados is the same.In theory when you disable amdos rom or parados, It can't be called because depend of burning rubber command, but thats all.I mean i simply exchange |spiel for |hxc and then jump to &88 rom for example.
I made now an experimet duke.I put in c4cpc the compilation game cartridge of 512kThen i boot it with m4 attached.The result is equal to my cartridge, With m4 with sd card it show the vertical bars, and without the sd card the cartridge works perfect.!There is no other roms attached, only the plus with m4 and c4cpcI have a power supply with 5A in 5v line son not problem to this.I go to test another cartridge sizes.desactivate rom in web browser not make diference.
Ok, I don't have a C4CPC so can't test, but I seem to remember someone in this thread had it working just fine with C4CPC after I issued the ROMDIS signal, unfortunately it's too much to scroll through, but maybe someone else can jump in with their experinces here.
When a CPR is greater than 180kB, it's loading is done in two step. The 1st step is loading the ROM with the boot loader, which is what you see when you start without SD.Then the bootloader ask the C4CPC to load the cartridge.The only pupose of this is to have a visual feedback when loading big cartridge.Now if you have a lower ROM enabled, the bootloader will be prevented from executing, and therefore the CPR will not be loaded.
@Duke : just a short and general question. A 5V power supply attached on the M4 doesn't feed a MX4 board, doesn't it?
I think i have try delete It today, But i try tomorrow.
These veritical bars are a side effect of the method used to make the CPC wait for the C4CPC to initialise.Basically, the Z80 will only read RST0 from the cartridge port until the cartridge is loaded. This continuously push 0x0001 to RAM. The bar you see are all these 0x0001.If you see these bar :- that mean that the Z80 tried to run from the cartridge- it did it for quite some cycle (long enough to fill the 64k of RAM with 0x0001)- the C4CPC is never ready / has never loaded a file (bootloader or CPR)- OR the z80 is now executing some code which is not located in cartridge slot.

Equity futures are flat to down slightly this morning after being up most of the evening:
The dollar is up, oil and gold are flat, and bonds are higher.
It's a very light week for economic releases, this morning mortgage applications where released and it just irks me to no end that they now only report weekly percentage changes – worthless, but it is what they've made it, so here's Econoday's spin:
Homeowners are rushing to lock in rock-bottom loan rates. Mortgage applications jumped sharply in the Oct. 2 week, up 13.2 percent for purchases and up 18.2 percent for refinancing. The average rate for 30-year mortgages fell for a third straight week, down 5 basis points to 4.89 percent. The bulk of demand is centered in refinancing which is making up two thirds of all applications. Refinancing will help make household debt manageable and help limit foreclosures. Heavy refinancing is also a factor behind the steep contraction underway in consumer credit, a report that excludes debt secured by real estate. Consumer credit data will be posted at 3:00 p.m. ET.
Thirteen to twenty percent swings from one week to the next? Riiiiight. That's almost believable and meaningful – not! This type of reporting is designed to obscure, plain and simple.
As they said, consumer credit comes out at 3 Eastern, the same time that Alcoa kicks of the 3rd quarter earnings season. Current price to earnings are at all time historic highs, meaning that vastly improved earnings are priced into the market. At some point people will remember what historic means and how historic norms became that way. For now, however, the historic disconnect continues.
Yesterday's rise seems to confirm that the final wave up of B up has begun. It can take awhile to play out, McHugh's next turn date isn't until November 4th, and that coincides with a Bradley turn date on November the 9th. Still a month away, it is possible that it takes that long to complete, but again, the 5th wave can be very unpredictable as they can truncate or extend.
At yesterday's close, the 60 minute stochastic was overbought as was the 10 minute. The 30 minute is nearly overbought so there should be at least a pause or a pullback somewhere in here soon. The daily stochastics are close to issuing a new buy signal. 1,061 is still the overhead pivot with support at 1,041 and then 1,018.
We're still inside of the rising wedges, playing pinball between pivot points for now. Earnings will likely provide a direction from here. Of course we know that the financials are going to trump up their own earnings by marking their toxic waste to unrealistic extremes, thus granting themselves greater and greater bonuses for the job well manipulated and politicians well paid off. Meanwhile the real economy suffers while these otherwise bankrupt institutions play games with everybody's futures. And there's the Fed and Treasury with yet another $100 billion plus in auctions to feed it all, complicit in every way.

A 29-year-old amateur ghost hunter chasing a ghost train was killed by a real train near Statesville, North Carolina. It was in the same spot exactly 119 years after the fatal accident he was hoping would produce the ghoulish locomotive.
Christopher Kaiser died on the scene of what was one of the worst train accidents in North Carolina history when, on August 27th, 1891 a passenger train jumped the tracks and plunged through a bridge.
Early this morning, at the same spot, Kaiser and a group of ghost hunters were walking the train trestle where the incident occurred when a real train made up of three locomotives rounded a bend. The group started to run for safety but Kaiser didn't make it. Two other ghost chasers were killed. (Hat tip to Worthless_Cos)

An API design is actually a programming question, but it can't be answered like "replace
= by
== on line 10". Moreover, the asking person has some idea how it should look like and has to start with presenting the idea, otherwise the answers would explore many different directions and not fit together. Starting with such a presentation makes the question appear like no question at all, so it collects closing votes.
Maybe it's just a matter of how the question should be formulated? But I've read the FAQ and have no idea how to make it better. I'm curios if you can advice me.
Maybe is SO not the right place for such questions? If so, I'd see it as a needless constraint.
To be more concrete, this is the question, which lead me to this one.
Please, spare me comments about whining. I'm old enough not to whine because of some critiques. I'm just asking how to solve a problem of mine.

As pointed by Warren Buffett, the percentage of total market cap (TMC) relative to the US GNP is "probably the best single measure of where valuations stand at any given moment."
Over the long term, the returns from stock market are determined by these factors:
1. Interest rate
Interest rates "act on financial valuations the way gravity acts on matter: The higher the rate, the greater the downward pull. That's because the rates of return that investors need from any kind of investment are directly tied to the risk-free rate that they can earn from government securities. So if the government rate rises, the prices of all other investments must adjust downward, to a level that brings their expected rates of return into line. Conversely, if government interest rates fall, the move pushes the prices of all other investments upward."—Warren Buffett
2. Long Term Growth of Corporate Profitability
Over the long term, corporate profitability reverts to its long term-trend, which is around 6%. During recessions, corporate profit margins shrink, and during economic growth periods, corporate profit margins expand. However, long-term growth of corporate profitability is close to long-term economic growth. The size of the US economy is measured by Gross National Product (GNP). Although GNP is different from GDP (gross domestic product), the two numbers have always been within 1% of each other. For the purpose of calculation, GDP is used here. The U.S. GDP since 1970 is represented by the green line in the first of the three charts to the right.
3. Market Valuations
Over the long run, stock market valuation reverts to its mean. A higher current valuation certainly correlates with lower long-term returns in the future. On the other hand, a lower current valuation level correlates with a higher long-term return. The total market valuation is measured by the ratio of total market cap (TMC) to GNP -- the equation representing Warren Buffett's "best single measure". This ratio since 1970 is shown in the second chart to the right. Gurufocus.com calculates and updates this ratio daily. As of 11/24/2020, this ratio is 179.1%.
We can see that, during the past five decades, the TMC/GNP ratio has varied within a very wide range. The lowest point was about 32.7% in the previous deep recession in July 1982, while the highest point was about 179.1% in November 2020. The market went from Significantly undervalued in July 1982 to Significantly overvalued in November 2020.
Based on these historical valuations, we have divided market valuation into five zones:
|Ratio = Total Market Cap / GDP
|Ratio ≤ 73%
|Significantly Undervalued
|73% < Ratio ≤ 93%
|Modestly Undervalued
|93% < Ratio ≤ 114%
|Fair Valued
|114% < Ratio ≤ 135%
|Modestly Overvalued
|Ratio > 135%
|Significantly Overvalued
|Where are we today (2020-11-24)?
|Ratio = 179.1%, Significantly Overvalued
A quick refresher (Thanks to Greenbacked): GDP is "the total market value of goods and services produced within the borders of a country." GNP is "is the total market value of goods and services produced by the residents of a country, even if they're living abroad. So if a U.S. resident earns money from an investment overseas, that value would be included in GNP (but not GDP)." While the distinction between the two is important because American firms are increasing the amount of business they do internationally, the actual difference between GNP and GDP is minimal as this chart from the St Louis Fed demonstrates:
GDP in Q4 2012 stood at $15,851.2 billion. GNP at Q3 2012 (the last data point available) stood at $16,054.2 billion. For our present purposes, one substitutes equally as well for the other.
Although the value of a business does not change overnight, its stock price often does. The market valuation is usually measured by the well-known ratios such as P/E, P/S, P/B etc. These ratios can be applied to individual businesses, as well as the overall market. The ratio Warren Buffett uses for market valuation, TMC/GNP, is equivalent to the P/S ratio of the economy.
Putting all the three factors together, the return of an investment can be estimated by the following formula:
Investment Return (%) = Dividend Yield (%)+ Business Growth (%)+ Change of Valuation (%)
The first two items of the equation are straightforward. The third item can be calculated if we know the beginning and the ending market ratios of the time period (T) considered. If we assumed the beginning ratio is Rb, and the ending ratio is Re, then the contribution in the change of the valuation can be calculated from this:
The investment return is thus equal to:
Investment Return (%) = Dividend Yield (%) + Business Growth(%) + (Re/Rb)(1/T)-1
This equation is actually very close to what Dr. John Hussman uses to calculate market valuations. From this equation we can calculate the likely returns an investment in the stock market will generate over a given time period. In the calculation, the time period we used was 8 years, which is about the length of a full economic cycle. The calculated results are shown in the final chart to the right. The green line indicates the expected return if the market trends towards being undervalued (TMC/GNP=0.7 * recent 20-year average) over the next 8 years from current levels, the red line indicates the return if the market trends towards being overvalued (TMC/GNP=1.3 * recent 20-year average) over the next 8 years. The blue line indicates the return if the market trends towards being fair-valued (TMC/GNP=recent 20-year average) over the next 8 years.
The thick bright yellow line in the bottom right chart is the actual annualized return of the stock market over 8 years. We use "Wilshire 5000 Full Cap Price Index" to do the actual return calculation. We can see the calculations largely predicted the trend in the returns of the stock market. The swing of the market's returns is related to the change in interest rates.
It has been unfortunate for investors who entered the market after the late 1990s. Since that time, the market has nearly always been overvalued, only dropping to fairly valued since the declines that began in 2008. Since Oct. 2008, for the first time in 15 years, the market has been positioned for meaningful positive returns.
As of 11/24/2020, the stock market is likely to return -2.1% a year in the next 8 years.
Based on these factors, Warren Buffett has made a few market calls in the past. In Nov. 1999, when the Dow was at 11,000, and just a few months before the burst of dotcom bubble, the stock market had gained 13% a year from 1981-1998. Warren Buffett said in a speech to friends and business leaders, "I'd like to argue that we can't come even remotely close to that 12.9... If you strip out the inflation component from this nominal return (which you would need to do however inflation fluctuates), that's 4% in real terms. And if 4% is wrong, I believe that the percentage is just as likely to be less as more."
Two years after the Nov. 1999 article, when the Dow was down to 9,000, Mr. Buffett said, "I would expect now to see long-term returns run somewhat higher, in the neighborhood of 7% after costs."
"Nine years have passed since the publication of the article of November 22, 1999, and it has been a wild and painful ride for most investors; the Dow climbed as high as 14,000 in October 2007 and retreated painfully back to 8,000 today."

The Chicken Coop is a building available on FarmVille. A farmer may put up to 100 chickens in a chicken coop so that they may be harvested all at once (similar to a Dairy Farm).
During 2010, there was a glitch that allowed players to have more then 1 chicken coop on each farm. Later, Zynga removed all those secondary chicken coops and left only 1 coop per farm. On August 31st, 2012 they changed it so that players could to have up to 2 chicken coops per farm.
Storage Edit
If a farmer clicks Look Inside on a chicken coop, they will be shown information about the animals inside including: what type of animal and how many, the type and cost of the eggs produced, and when they can be harvested.
Animals Edit
- Main article: Chicken Coop Table
Certain animals can be stored and harvested when placed in the Chicken Coop. When harvested, these animals produce mystery eggs.
If a farmer does not own a certain kind of animal that can be stored in the Chicken Coop, the box will appear gray, as for the Gold and Black chickens shown below:
Mystery Eggs Edit
- Main article: Mystery Egg
Mystery Eggs were introduced with the Chicken Coop. A farmer can get a Mystery Egg when harvesting his Chicken Coop, or when feeding a neighbor's Chicken Coop. When he/she does, the Mystery Egg will be placed in the Gift Box, and the farmer has the option to share a Mystery Egg with their neighbors. Each type of mystery egg has a maximum number of neighbors that can take it from the feed. If all mystery eggs are not claimed within 24 hours the feed will expire.
Harvesting Edit
There is a chance of obtaining a Mystery Egg with each harvest of the coop. The color of the Mystery Egg that may be produced is determined by colors of the chickens in the coop; having more of a particular chicken in the coop will result in a higher chance of finding that chicken's egg. If a Mystery Egg is not found while harvesting from the Chicken Coop, the user receives a bonus from 2 to 5 times the value of the eggs harvested directly from the chickens.
The feature of feeding your neighbor's chicken coops was introduced on 6 January 2010.
Expansion Edit
A Chicken Coop initially can hold up to 20 Chickens.
|Normal Coop
|20 Chickens
|5,000 coins
|Big Coop
|40 Chickens
|Barn Raising
|Huge Coop
|60 Chickens
|Barn Raising
|Giant Coop
|80 Chickens
|Barn Raising
|Super Coop
|100 Chickens
|Barn Raising
A farmer can expand the Chicken Coop either by paying 1 cash per person required, or asking neighbors for help. If the farmer chooses "Ask for Help", he has 3 days to get 10 neighbors have to click on the Newsfeed. A neighbor can only help 1 time per day. The farmer can see how many (but not which) neighbors helped. Farmers can cancel or pay to complete the expansion at any time.
Trivia Edit
- Chicken Coops could once be sent by a farmer as a gift to their neighbors. A farmer may only own one Chicken Coop at any one time, meaning that if a farmer who already owned a Chicken Coop received a chicken instead. Due to a glitch in the system, it was possible to obtain more than one chicken coop at a time. This has since been fixed.
- The January 15, 2010 episode of the FarmVille Podcast had a brief mention of "very cool changes to the Chicken Coop" coming soon, but did not elaborate on what these changes will be. On February 19, 2010 then Chicken Coops became extendable first to 40, then to 60 chickens.
- A Chicken Coop can be sold for 650 coins for the first time, but any subsequent sales will only earn the farmer 270 coins (in which 20 coins is the price for one chicken included inside).
- In terms of coins the Chicken Coop can be the most productive unit in the game at the moment. A Huge Chicken Coop with 100 Golden Chicken regularly produces 6400 coins per day or 427 coins per day per square. As noted above, if no Mystery Egg is found then a bonus is given instead. Assuming a Mystery Egg finding chance of 50% and always getting a bonus of 2 times the regular price this still sums up to 853 coins per day per square. The second most productive unit is the Belted Cow (any of them), producing 750 coins per day per square, but, unlike the Chicken Coop, is not limited in number (and comes with a high price). Not yet mentioned were the crafting cottages, which can produce an immense amount of money, but only if you have a huge amount of neighbors.
- For a period of time, when you visited your neighbor to feed their chicken, the game would zoom on the Chicken Coop so that it would be right in the center of the screen. As of August 6th, 2010, the auto-find (zoom) in feature is working.

Loops | FABERDOM1 | Released: 30/06/09
'Here at last is a haven for adventurous long-form music writing of every sort: ruminations, rhapsodies, reported investigations and critical essays, pieces that range across time and the genrescape, and that focus intently on individual artists, songs, tiny moments of epiphany'
Simon Reynolds
July 2009 brings the launch of landmark collaboration between two of the great Independents - Domino and Faber. Combining a deep passion and knowledge of pop music, pop culture and literature, Loops is an astonishing new journal dedicated to engaging, intelligent and diverse writing about music.
Publishing twice-yearly, Loops offers a landscape for today's exceptional writers, musicians and artists to engage with subjects, individuals and issues that colour all corners of the pop music world. Free from the shackles of release schedules, Loops will provide a space for artists to publish tour diaries, non sequiturs and think-pieces, an opportunity for writers to stretch out and go off-map to share their thoughts and ideas, and a canvas for artists and photographers to exhibit beautiful, unusual and diverse works.
Issue 1 of this unique, collectible journal contains contributions as diverse as a previously unpublished feature by Nick Kent on Nick Drake from 1978, a piece by James Yorkston about his influences called Perfect Button Drumming, an essay on Spacemen 3 by Richard Milward and an extract from Nick Cave's new novel The Death Of Bunny Munro (full contents overleaf).
Such material is backed by high spec production and design values, and showcased within lush, desirable packaging with each issue of the journal bearing a unique, specially commissioned cover, and the bespoke 'Braid' typeface of the Loops logo.
Loops events are planned throughout 2009, from The Great Escape to Camp Bestival to Rough Trade– hosting a series of unique panels and performances from Loops contributors, Domino artists and Faber authors. Loops will also have a home on the web, bolstered by the strong online presence of both Domino and Faber, with a designated website packed with extra material. www.loopsjournal.com
Loops is edited by Lee Brackstone and Richard King. Lee Brackstone is Publishing Director at Faber and Faber for pop culture titles and fiction. The Faber pop culture list has published such influential works as Jon Savage's England's Dreaming, Simon Reynolds's Rip It Up and Start Again and Greil Marcus's Lipstick Traces. Richard King has worked at Domino, the UK's leading independent music label for 15 years. In that time he has seen the label release records by Arctic Monkeys, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Franz Ferdinand, Pavement, Sebadoh and Robert Wyatt and build an incredible history and reputation.

(Silver Spring, Md.) - GOLD RUSH, Discovery Channel's highest-rated series, returns for a third season on Friday, October 26th. After two years of equipment breakdowns, infighting and battling Mother Nature, this season one crew finally strikes it rich.
At 7:30PM E/P, the 90 minute special GOLD RUSH: DO OR DIE reveals what the crews did last winter to prepare for their most important season yet: teenager Parker Schnabel looks to redeem himself and prove to his grandfather John he has what it takes to turn a profit at Big Nugget Mine, "Dakota Fred" Hurt gets to finally see what's at the bottom of the infamous glory hole and Todd Hoffman strategizes about how to achieve the monstrous 1,000 ounce goal he set for himself and his crew at the end of last season.
At 9PM E/P, the episode "Million Dollar Season" kicks off the third season of GOLD RUSH. One of the mining teams hits paydirt... but which one? Parker Schnabel has a new crew, new land and a newly rebuilt wash plant on his side. After months and months of digging, Dakota Fred finally hit bedrock and started to see the best gold yet just as winter set in last year - and has high hopes that this will finally be the season he walks away a millionaire. And in his quest to find 1,000 ounces of gold this season, Todd Hoffman doublesdown with two claims and twice the crew and equipment. But is that enough to get him to his goal of finding ten times more than he did last year?
Premieres Friday, October 26th at 7:30PM E/P
(90 minute special)
The off-season is where miners say they make all their money - it's all about preparation for the coming season. And miner Todd Hoffman has his hands full. He claims he'll find 1,000 ounces of gold - worth about $1.6 million - in this, his third mining season. That's ten times more than what he and his crew produced last year: 93.5 ounces worth about $150,000. But Hoffman dreams big and there's no stopping him from trying to pull this off. Though if he fails, he says this will be his last season.
To even come close to this seemingly impossible goal, Todd has to make some drastic changes from last season. He needs to double down on his crew, equipment, wash plants and yes,even his claims. But that takes some serious money and he needs to secure an investor to fund this supersized operation. To add to his challenges, Todd's right hand man Dave Turin is fed up with his mining tactics and will only return to the Klondike with the Hoffman crew if he is allowed to run the second claim his own way, splitting the original mining team in two.
"Million Dollar Season"
Premieres Friday, October 26th at 9PM E/P
It took two years to get here, but this season, four competing gold mining crews have made it to the big leagues.
After finding just 35 ounces of gold last year, worth about $56,000, 18-year-old Parker Schnabel has to prove to his grandfather,John Schnabel, that he's got what it takes to be a real Alaskan gold miner. He hires a new crew, mines new land and rebuilds his aging wash plant from the ground up. And it pays off. In one week Parker gets more gold out of Big Nugget than all of last season. But can he keep up the momentum and turn a profit for the mine - and his grandpa?
Across the creek from Parker is the Porcupine Creek mine, run by "Dakota Fred" Hurt and his son Dustin. And their plans are just as big. They pulled in 80.4 ounces last year, worth about $128,000, but that just whet their appetite. The weather turned last season just as they hit bedrock at the bottom of the glory hole - a spot thought to contain millions of dollars worth of gold. With a female miner joining the Dakota Boys this season, they excavate a 90-foot crater and deal with the effects of the worst winter in 50 years to get to the gold.
In their quest to find 1,000 ounces of gold this season, more than ten times the amount they found last season, the Hoffmans double down with two claims, two wash plants, twice the crew and twice the equipment. And at his insistence, Dave Turin leads the second mine, forcing the Hoffman crew to pick sides. Half of the original crew chooses to mine with Dave and the strategy pays off. Between the two mines they break all previous gold counts - but the pressure to get to 1,000 ounces drives a wedge between the crews and it's a battle between Team Todd and Team Turin for who can produce the most gold.
Season two of GOLD RUSH, premiering in October 2011, was watched by an average of 4.58 million people each week (Live+SD) and was the #1 program in ALL of television (no exclusions) for 13 straight weeks among men 18-49 (delivery). The February 24, 2012 season finale, "Judgement Day," earned a 3.53 HH / 2.64 P25-54 AA%, delivering an average of 5.06 million viewers (P2+). In total, GOLD RUSH was watched by 57.7 million people (P2+) during the second season.
GOLD RUSH is produced for Discovery Channel by Raw Television, where Dimitri Doganis and Sam Maynard are executive producers and James Bates is showrunner. For Discovery Channel, Christo Doyle is executive producer.

Green-light district: Summit's condos ready by January
ADDRESS: 820 E. High St., Apts. 1, 2, 5 & 11
BUILDING: 656, 537, 789 & 1,255 sq. ft.
LAND: 0.0 acres
NEIGHBORHOOD: Downtown Charlottesville
CURB APPEAL: 7 out of 10
LISTED BY: Carolyn Shears, Summit Realty 817-4040, 760-2395
Talk about the ambience of urban living. Just how cool would it be to have the glow of a traffic light reflecting into your living room every night? Okay, maybe that's not so great.
But what if you could gloat about not having to stop for it because you walk to work in downtown Charlottesville or one of the many medical offices scattered about the Martha Jefferson neighborhood?
Three of the four condominiums still for sale and nearing completion at 820 E. High St. have sumptuous window views of western sunsets, Park Street church steeples, and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Situated at tree-top level, they also overlook "Tarleton's Oak," its namesake gas station, and the traffic light at the intersection of Jefferson and East High.
This flat-topped seafoam green and ivory structure has been steadily rising over the remains of its squat brick base– formerly the Tarleton Medical Building– for more than a year. As the first project to be approved by Charlottesville's officials under the mixed-use-friendly zoning ordinance implemented last September, it offers two commercial and 14 residential units.
Fittingly enough, the builders and designers of the newly named "Eight 20 Condominiums" plan to move in downstairs. Summit Realty and Bushman Dreyfus Architects will occupy the ground floor offices, while a dedicated elevator and two secure-access staircases lead from a rear parking lot to the one- and two-bedroom apartments above.
The agents hoped to use one of the east-facing units as a model before they started actively marketing the properties in August, but since that unit (with its great sunrise views) was one of the first reserved, and 10 of the 14 were spoken for in less than three months' time, they aren't worrying about a model anymore.
Even uncompleted, the design extras in this distinctively different apartment building must be speaking for themselves. For starters, every unit is unique. Some have big balconies, some have teeny terraces. Some have doors on the bedrooms, some don't.
What? No bedroom doors? The agent explains that the architect wanted a "very urban and very open and flowing look."
The open look is enhanced in all the units by 10-foot ceilings, all white walls, and multi-positional pleated white window blinds for the many large windows. Other standard features include light blonde bamboo flooring, wiring for Internet and digital TV, sprinklers, and a single deeded parking space for each unit. (Additional spots can be leased for a monthly fee.)
Kitchen appliances are included, along with full-sized washer and dryer units. Two extra-price modifications are possible: Standard white appliances can be upgraded to stainless steel or black, and fancier kitchen countertops like granite or Corian are an option. Homeowner's Association dues will vary according to the unit size, but are expected to range between $90 and $170 monthly.
With completion of the units due any day and state approval of all condominium documents pending, the agent anticipates move-in dates in early 2005.
Of the four remaining units, there are some distinctions of note: No. 11 is the only two-bedroom unit still available, and the only one left on the uppermost third floor; it's the largest of the 14 units and correspondingly the most expensive. No.1 is the only unit without a balcony or terrace, but it's on a corner, with views to the west and north. No. 2 is the smallest of the 14, thus the least expensive. No. 5 is also a corner unit– with possibly the best view of the traffic light.
It's hard to gauge what kind of changes this neighborhood will undergo once Martha Jefferson moves to Pantops, but for now the emergency room is within walking distance, and all those ambulances are still coming and going, providing even more urban charm.

'Psych' stars Roday and Hill tease episode remake
NEW YORK -- Two reasons for the popularity of the USA series "Psych" are its inside jokes and theme storylines, like the recent 100th episode inspired by the movie "Clue" that had multiple endings.
At the network's annual upfront presentation for advertisers Thursday, James Roday said for the show's eighth season, which they're filming now, "we've still got a couple tricks up our sleeve."
He goes on to say they're planning to "do something that's never been done in the history of television."
The show's cast and crew are planning to remake a previous episode.
Roday and co-star Dule Hill said they already know which episode will get remade but they can't reveal which one. Roday does say it will be from "early" in the series.
"Because why would we remake something from season seven," joked Hill.
On "Psych," Roday plays Shawn Spencer, a consultant for the Santa Barbara Police Department who has exceptional observational skills that help him solve crimes but he pretends to be a psychic detective.
Hill plays Burton "Gus" Guster, his best friend, who is in on Shawn's secret.
"Psych" is USA Network's longest-running original series on air and the third most-popular original show behind "Burn Notice" and "Suits."

Hugo Gernsback wrote a syndicated piece in 1925 that imagined the world of 1975. It appeared in the February 8th edition of the San Antonio Light (San Antonio, TX) and has an interesting mix of hits and misses. Highlights from the article are excerpted below. You can read the piece in its entirety here.
Gernsback recognized that the future had the potential to be even more fantastic than we could imagine:
The chances are that if someone runs across this fifty years from now, he will severely condemn the writer of this for his great lack of imagination, for, no matter how wild the predictions may seem now, they will look very tame fifty years hence. If someone had tried to explain radio to you fifty years ago, or the X-ray, or radium, he would have been put down as ripe for the insane asylum, and you may rest assured that we are no different today.
On television:
Movies by radio! Why not? You will be able to have a moving picture produced in some central plant and projected in your home, on your yacht, or on your camping trip, the picture being sent by radio, and received and projected upon your screen. All this is perfectly possible.
On teleportation:
By [1975], we shall be able to send all sorts of materials by radio. If you think that it is impossible to transmit a carload of coal thousands of miles, you need only go back less than fifty years, when it would have been thought equally impossible to have the street cars of Syracuse, N.Y., run by the power generated by Niagara Falls. Today no one thinks anything of this.
On personal transportation:
Each pedestrian will roll on electric skates, such as have been constructed even today. An insulated wire running from the skate to the head or shoulder of the skater will be sufficient to take the power from the radio power line, and we shall then all be propelled electrically at a pace at least four or five times as fast as we walk today.
On buildings of the future:
All of our buildings and houses are due for a great revolution. In the Wintertime all of our buildings will be warm, and in the Summertime they will be cool. The future buildings and house will be fashioned along the principle of a thermos bottle. Each wall will be double, and the space between the walls will be filled with cork or some other poor heat conductor.
The tops of our tallest buildings will be flat and glass-covered. They will have airplane landing platforms on which all kinds of airplanes, or even the trans-Atlantic planes of the future will land.
On hanging gardens:
Our large office buildings, or, for that matter, private houses, will have real gardens with large trees on top of the roofs, as has already been tried experimentally with smaller plants in some of our large cities.
On electrified crops:
Not only that, but plant life will also be greatly stimulated as recent high frequency experiments on plants have shown. Our crops and plants will grow practically two to ten times as quickly and the crops will be more productive under this electrification. Under such stimulation it will be quite possible to raise crops at least twice or perhaps more often during the year; and the most interesting part about this is that it will cost the farmer absolutely nothing except for fertilizer. And this he requires anyway.
On moving sidewalks:
Below the elevated railway we have continuous moving platforms. There will be three such moving platforms alongside of each other. The first platform will move only a few miles per hour, the second at eight or ten miles per hour, and the third at twelve or fifteen miles per hour.
You step upon the slowest moving one from terra firma and move to the faster ones and take your seat. Then arriving at your station, you can either take the lift to the top platform or else you can get off upon the "elevated level" and take the fast train there. which stops only every thirty or forty blocks. Or, if you do not wish this, you can descent by the same elevator down to the local subway.
