I have to migrate off social media
First, let me say that social media has been an central part of my recovery process; Ive dumped thousands of pages of information and feelings on those sites and now that Ive been on social media groups; its like having my own personal psych groups to report into every time I step into my apartment; I get on a *mod edit* group and start writing comments; its like being part of a real community. So; social media has had its part in my recovery. However, no free speech anymore; its turning into a strange form of communist conservative. Im still on the sites; I still use it for groups; And that hopefully will last, But the rest of the purpose of social media is now suspect; I see nothing but the collection of names for a money machine and censorship.
Dam feminists; bizarre. and the Mods on these groups; no better; ridiculous....
SJW's are now taking what Ive written on my social media channel and reprinting it in social media groups I and asking women if I should be in their groups because the stuff I write might appear like Im demeaning women. Well,, thats not the right words; more covert but plain. Reposting stuff Ive written to shame me to all people on the group. Why are the mods allowing this in the first place in a group; they are corrupt; all those rules; ridiculous. specific Social media sites have been taken over as a feminist headquarters.
Im smart enough not to respond; Ive had experience with this as is. I don't think anyones going to dump me from a group because of what I wrote on my own page/channel; but these days; you never know. Its attacks; their taking stuff off my page; its a *mod edit* issue. *mod edit* is about gathering people to make money from them; its trying to sell things to advertisers and gather information about people to make money; The feminist thing is a fronting. In the end its all about money and nothing more; but *mod edit* is dying as I can see it; for my intended purposes. Unethical behavior in every direction.
Ive written 10,000 things about women; the post they found was lite compared to stuff Ive written in the past. Im an American and I wont stand for this 2 faced nonsense in my country. Im outspoken about everything. But these social media sites are not America; and I mean that; they are on the internet; They are not a country.
My post was about loosing weight. I have to loose weight and get in shape if I want to date someone; this is biological; I don't have to explain it to anyone or a bunch of women; this is nothing new to have to get into shape if one is going to date; its common knowledge and common sense; its about attracting the opposite sex. Im a man; I wont work to be over weight... I have to loose thirty pounds; My issues are with food. Women dont notice me when Im extremely over weight; so I must loose weight and get thin.
I have food issues; I have to stop eating the amount of food I eat and the type of food must be changed and no snacking between meals. Simply changing my diet; allot of my weight will leave. I mountain bike all the time; so that only helps the situation of loosing weight. I can loose all the weight exercising; wont do any good; its a food issue.
Social media;
Ive already migrated to other similar sites.. Im basically done with social media ; but not yet.
I still like the groups on social media; the *mod edit* groups; the anxiety based groups; but Ive been kicked off several; either from over writing on them; triggering the bots on those sites or thinking Im advertising on sites; and of course; Im not advertising at all; but its gotten me kicked off. On the other sites; its about free writing styles; free speech.
Its not free speech on social media anymore; its not been free for a long while. At some point everything I write on my social midia page will be censored. Its not free speech on those sites and worse; someone else can set me up on those sites and get me kicked off; its happened a few times; and its happening now. The mods aught to know better; but no one said they were decent people; their not; its all fake; a ######6 joke; nothing is honest; its all communism or socialism.
Anyway; Ive got the universe on my side so Im not worried about it; Im just fascinated and curious as I watch how Im assaulted on social media; and many more complain about the same thing and are migrating to new social media sites.
IF you put a pic of something offensive to the social media group; I get a strike and knocked off for a few days. I dont agree that its offensive; its the truth; and the only people that dont like the truth are currupt liars.
Ill keep working with the universe and being out spoken words of truth until they shut down my page...
I have sites to dump my feelings; the universe is in control of all things; so; Ive dumped enough stuff on my social media page and social media groups; it doesn't matter if Im never on those things again; I got all my feelings out about the subjects I needed to get out; I dont like it tho. Nothing is ethical. No free speech; means head hunters can find something on your page and use it against you on the whole site; its like communism. And in the end; its all about making money for those who own those top sites; and thats all this is about...
When I see a post about someone complaining about dating; and bringing up size. Im like; " are you kidding"; the first thing that most go if I want to date is weight; Ive got to get thin and in shape or at least thin; my regular weight. I cant be carrying 50 pounds of flab and expect all the girls to jump me. It dont work that way; and everyone knows this; its biology. If I leave my opinion; " why dont you loose weight" Im suspended; some feminist comes on my page drags the stuff back to the group Im in; or if I leave a comment in the group; 400 women attack me which makes no sense; Im trying to help the poster; Im trying to get a real world concept shoved down their throat; " you dont get nothing unless work your ass off". Dating is not easy; non of it; Lots more required besides just loosing weight. But loosing weight is a must; its a must for me.... And the truth is good enough; its scary when censorship is used.
Back to social media;
The point is; they start looking to tare you down on specific social media; they come after you; thats whats happening to me; Im being hunted... because of what I wrote on my page. And on a few other sites; the comments I left. Its not free speech; not because of the feminist but because of the mods and who's in charge of social media. Its not free speech.... Its starting to look like a add machine on social media; an advertising machine. Get the names and numbers of the people from the social media information and send it to other sites and sell the names.
So; Im slowly migrating.
Social media is not what it used to be. At some point I hope to leave them behind; stay on specific new social media sites and other copy sites.. Ive already joined several other sites...
Social media is nice for groups; But Im running out of groups because I cant speak freely. That wont stop me; Im under orders from the universe; and the universe creates the world I need to survive in; so; for now; Ive got groups; the problem is the value of these specific social media groups; the mods on the groups are no better then the filth causing my problems on my page; in fact; they may be the same people. When I got in trouble on sites; it was me chasing the bad people who started the problems in the first place; I ended up leaving controversy posts on the group; talking about what was happening; and bam; I was stopped; I got suspended. So; Im at least a basic learner. Im learning; stop responding. The other day; a had my stuff taken from my social media page and dragged to one of my posts; Relational aggression attack by the SJW's. I work with the universe; and the answer is; dont respond; do nothing. How can the mods attack me I never responded to anything. But at some point they will or they can.
The key is to keep going; the universe has supplied this social media place for me to dump my stuff and get better; and its worked; Ive noticed an interesting situation; no matter where I go; I win; Im always winning; no one is dumping me first; or cutting me off; its always to late; the SJW's are always to late; everyone is to late that wants to dump me from a site; I always get all the stuff out and grow beyond the group or site before Im dumped; aways. This is the universe making things happen in my favor. Its been this way for awhile; it appears to be. They cant catch me because the universe is in charge. Still; it can get stressful.

Frozen Egg
Name: unnamed
Species: Phaeophyte Dragon Turtle
Birthday: Friday, February 10, 2012
Owner: WolfeDente
This egg is perfectly round, and a fin has emerged from it.
Dragon turtles are giant creatures, prone to violent behaviors. Scholars believe their ferocious temperaments are due to their strength and energy, since dragon turtles are bursting with power. This power is not so much a blessing as a curse, leaving them constantly in motion and on edge. It is best not to startle a dragon turtle, and to slowly back away from any wild one. When roused, their anger is terrible to witness, and if they cannot release their energy, the dragon turtle will have to swim until exhausted. This constant need for movement is directly linked with their magical powers. Dragon turtles possess the unique and promising ability to change both waves and sun rays into magical energy. Not only does this make it so that dragon turtles hardly need to sleep, but it also allows them to swim rapidly and live most of the year without eating. Dragon turtles take advantage of this by finding desolate areas in which to live, where food is hard to come by. These companions may chose to live elsewhere if they had the choice, but they must live mostly solitary lives. This is because any group of dragon turtles will soon be at each others throats, and only many deaths would halt the violence. It is not surprising that dragon turtles make difficult companions, and are becoming more and more rare with each passing year. Still, those who have become enamored with these aquatic creatures have spent much time helping train new hatchlings, teaching them to be more peaceful. This group is also inspired by the dragon turtles strange and useful magic, and a few magi have tried to replicate it. So far, a new spell has created hot water throughout the year, without the need of warming it with fire. What other discoveries will be found are not known, but are eagerly anticipated.

Raspberry Pi 基金会已经任命 Farnell、RS Components 和 (最近) Egoman Technology Corp[1] 作为其授权的制造商合作伙伴和分销商。
截至2012年7月16日,Premier Farnell 和 RS Components 均已撤销了"每人限购一台"的限制。无论消费者还是商家现在均可大量购买 Raspberry Pi。
Raspberry Pi 的分销商们将会竭尽全力将其运往世界各地(但会受原产国出口法律和当地进口法律的限制)。
派睿电子 (Farnell) 也被拒绝直接销售给某些欧盟的消费者。据我所知,他们并没有给出详细原因。
购买 Raspberry Pi 主要有三种选择:直接从分销商处购买、从分销商的附属公司或子公司处购买以及从第三方经销商处购买。哪个选项对于您而言更合适,是根据您所处的地理位置、您购买的数量和订单紧迫性决定的。
所有分销商处的新订单将会发 512MB 第二版的 Raspberry Pi。然而,一些第三方分销商可能仍旧有老款型号的库存。
派睿电子 (Farnell)
http://www.farnell.com/ 派睿电子 (Farnell) 是两家主要分销商之一。截至2012年11月21日,他们主要欧洲业务部已将其标记为脱销,且标记为需要3个星期才能交付。根据论坛的情况来看,派睿电子经常提前发货。
对于欧洲客户来说,需要选择是"个人购买"还是"业务采购"。如果客户选择了业务采购,则会跳转到派睿电子 (Farnell) 的常规网站订购。如果客户选择了个人购买,则会转到一个专门用于销售 Raspberry Pi 及其相关产品的网站,但该网站并不显示库存状态。派睿电子 (Farnell) 的网站声明,若消费者没有之前申请的账户是无法使用业务采购选项的。但并没有明确说明是否对所有国家都是如此。对于某些国家的消费者将被引导到第三方经销商。Raspberry Pi 的库存编码是 2191863。

Licensed Manufacture
The foundation has chosen to license manufacture of the Raspberry Pi, which should provide several advantages including:
- The involvement of RS Components and Premier Farnell means that build volume can be increased much, much faster than would have been possible otherwise. Due to costs and working capital, the foundation would have been limited to batches of only 10k Raspberry Pi's; the Raspberry Pi will now be being built to match demand.
- Both Premier Farnell and RS Components have worldwide distribution networks, so wherever you are in the world, you will be able to buy from a local distributor. It's a much better way for you to buy than getting them all shipped from the Foundation in the UK.
- Both RS Components and Premier Farnell will be taking preorders, something which the foundation would otherwise be unable to do.
- The foundation will still receive a percentage from the sale of every Raspberry Pi sold, which will be put straight back into the charity.
- Primarily, by removing the focus on dealing with manufacture, distribution and sales, this frees up the limited resources of the foundation to focus on the original aims and goals of the project.
Additional detail is available in the video interview between Eben Upton and SlashDot here (2012-02-28).
Unfortunately the switch to licensed manufacture has also resulted in a marked reduction in transparency of the process as Farnell and RS consider detailed information of what is going on to be confidential.
What You Get In The Box
1. Pre-Assembled Raspberry Pi board
2. A sheet containing a combination of regulatory information and some very brief instructions.
1. The board will be supplied assembled (since most of the components are not suitable for home builds, including the BGA[2]package mounted SoC[3] and PoP[4] memory). 2. The board has the GPIO header pins for the primary GPIO header (but not the secondary GPIO header added on the revision 2 boards) populated. The SoC JTAG may or may not be present depending on when the board was manufactured and at which factory but aren't really of use to end users anyway due to the lack of Broadcom documentation. The LAN JTAG header does not seem to be present on any boards. 3. All other connectors will be assembled in place.
To use the Raspberry Pi, a user will typically require some accessories. All of the Raspberry Pi vendors listed above sell some accessories, but the exact range varies. Accessories you should consider include.
- USB Power Supply (UK/EU/US Compatible; 5V, 700mA-1500mA(1.5A))[5]
- SD card. Most distributors are selling pre-prepared SD cards which are usually 4 GB. Software is available to prepare your own SD cards.
- There is a wide choice of cases, most distributors will have some but shopping around for one you like is suggested.
- There are a variety of AddOn/Expansion Boards now available, see that page for more details.
See Typical Hardware You Will Need for details about other items you may require.
The price is $35USD before shipping, duty, and tax, about $60 after.
Although the foundation is UK based, the guide price of the units are in USD since the Raspberry Pi components are sourced in USD$.
The price is $25USD (~£16GBP) for model A, and $35USD (~£23GBP) for model B.
Items will be subject to local tax (that is, UK will have 20% VAT added) and shipping cost is not included.
See the following update on RS Components and Farnell global pricing (2012-03-13).
Clones & Copies
The foundation plans to release all the required schematics and plans to reproduce the Raspberry Pi hardware, so clones and copies will be welcome.
However, since the unit is built around the Broadcom SoC, the interested party will require suitable sized orders to obtain them. The foundation were fortunate enough to be supported in this aspect by Broadcom to enable the project to be feasible.
Historic information
- The foundation have built an initial run of 10,000 Model-B units.
- Due to extreme demand, the units were NOT sold directly from the shop (see #Licensed Manufacture below).
- You may buy a Raspberry Pi from Farnell or from RS Components
- A limit of one unit per person was applied for the first batch and some time afterwards
* There were reports that several people ordered multiple units at launch, however it appears that Farnell removed any excess items when they reviewed and confirmed the order for shipping dates. This has also appears to apply for the pre-orders they have taken. Many customers also ordered from both Farnell and RS.
1st Batch Order FAQ
NOTE: While every attempt has been made to provide accurate information, this FAQ is not official and is based on what information is available at the time of writing.
Press Releases
Post-Launch FAQ by Farnell, see their attached docx file for details.
RS Components:
Post-Launch statement by RS Components
Raspberry Pi, Your Questions Answered by RS Components
- Q - Couldn't this have been handled better, I couldn't get on the site to order and they sold too quickly?
- Both distributors were indeed unprepared for the volume of traffic the launch generated (they were warned by the foundation before hand).
- Chances are if the foundation had gone with their original plan of selling through their own shop, the situation would have been far worse, with no option of pre-order either.
- The distributors only have 5,000 units each to sell, reports have estimated the registered interest/pre-orders totalling over 2 million (no official figures available yet). Even if it is half of that, it means the number of available units was less than 1% of the demand.
- Q - If interest was obviously so high, why only build 10,000 units?
- There is a big risk involved with building a large batch of units and selling them, and 10,000 units would take well over $250,000 in capital investment. For a very small charity, that is a massive task in itself. Much of that funding came from the Foundation Trustees' own personal investment.
- Thankfully, the massive bonus of licensing out manufacture, is that the build rate is no longer limited by the foundation's own funding, which means there will be many more units available much sooner.
- Q - I've been unable to register an account with the distributor, as I am not a company?
- There have been several reported problems with individuals placing orders (that is, not having company accounts or details).
- Both distributors "should" take orders from individuals. However, it appears each of the different localised sites may have different requirements so this will be investigated to ensure that this is corrected if needed.
- Often, many of the company related fields on application are optional. If in doubt, contact their sales team for help.
- Q - Worldwide launch? It was not available here!
- The distributors decided to make the units only available from selected locations. It appears the foundation were not made aware of this beforehand.
- Considering the small number of available units, it would have been unlikely to have improved the situation.
- Worldwide availability will be monitored, it is expected that they will be made available as soon as possible.
- Q - The price for the Raspberry Pi from Farnell versus the price from RS Components is different, why?
- Please see the following page for details about RS Components and Farnell global pricing (2012-03-13).
- Q - I've only been able to register my interest, what now?
- Be patient, both distributors have said they will contact people when they have more details (alternatively keep an eye on their sites for news).
- RS Components, in particular have only taken people's details, and according to the above press-release will wait until they receive their allocated 5,000 units.
- Q - I registered on the Raspberry Pi Site's Mailing List, but I didn't get an email

The Boston Red Sox signed left-handed pitcher Craig Breslow on Thursday.
The Boston Red Sox signed left-handed pitcher Craig Breslow on Thursday.
Breslow, who had been eligible for salary arbitration, agreed to a two-year contract, with a club option for 2015.
In 63 combined appearances between Arizona and Boston last season, Breslow, 32, went 3-0 with a 2.70 ERA. He was acquired by the Red Sox on July 31 from the Diamondbacks in exchange for pitcher Matt Albers and outfielder Scott Podsednik.
Breslow, a native of New Haven, Conn., and a Yale graduate, has made 60 or more appearances in each of the last four seasons for a total of 282. That ranks fourth among all major league relievers since 2009.
Originally selected by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 26th round of the 2002 June draft, Breslow has a 15-17 record with a 3.00 ERA in 358 career games. In Boston, he is 1-2 with a 3.09 ERA in 36 appearances.

ANNUAL MANUAL: Culture- Movies
The best of the rest of 2007
They're already showing trailers for next summer's movies, even if they haven't been filmed yet. Is it any wonder that by the time a picture opens you sometimes think you've already seen it?
My contribution to that situation is my annual list of the films I'm most looking forward to in the rest of this year. Except for a handful I've already seen, I'm not saying you should necessarily be looking forward to them, but something about them has piqued my interest.
Last year's list included a lot of films that proved to be Oscar contenders and/or my personal favorites, but I totally missed Pan's Labyrinth and The Last King of Scotland and thought Idlewild sounded more interesting than Dreamgirls and The Prestige better than The Illusionist. And who didn't think All the King's Men, The Fountain, and The Good German would be winners and Snakes on a Plane would be fun? In other words, it's still a crapshoot, but I'll see them all (usually without paying) so you won't have to.
Because I cheat, the list winds up as a compromise (about 35) between the "Top Ten" I'm assigned to write and what my OCD tells me to write: a comprehensive listing of every film scheduled for release before year-end that might possibly be worth seeing.
The national release dates, subject to change, are in parentheses; but most of these are platform releases that won't reach Charlottesville until later– perhaps next year, if ever.
1. National Comedy Day – Unless schedules change, two of the year's funniest movies will open August 17. You can choose between the subtle British humor of Death at a Funeral, directed by Frank Oz (Bowfinger, Housesitter), and the raunchy American wackiness of Superbad, from some of the Knocked Up people, in which two graduating seniors have one wild night.
2. The Return of Nicole Kidman – Nicole Kidman was Hollywood's highest-paid actress for five minutes, until she turned 40 and Reese Witherspoon passed her; but the former Mrs. Cruise cranked out three movies during those five minutes, and we'll see them in the next few months. The Invasion (Aug. 17) pairs her with Craig, Daniel Craig in what sounds like a sci-fi variation on The Others. The Golden Compass (Dec. 7) will show whether Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials novels will give New Line a trilogy to match The Lord of the Rings. The more modest Margot at the Wedding (Oct. 19) pits Kidman against sister Jennifer Jason Leigh in a dysfunctional family dramedy by Noah Baumbach (The Squid and the Whale).
3. History Repeats Itself – At least in the case of The Golden Age (Oct. 12), which reunites Cate Blanchett and Geoffrey Rush under Shekhar Kapur's direction in a rare arthouse sequel that continues the story of Queen Elizabeth I as portrayed in Elizabeth. Clive Owen joins the cast as Sir Walter Raleigh. The Other Boleyn Girl (Dec. 21) speculates about the sister (Scarlett Johansson) who didn't marry King Henry VIII (Eric Bana). Natalie Portman plays the one who did. Peter Morgan (The Queen) wrote the screenplay.
4. Two for Clooney's Goonies – Though not as hot as two years ago, George Clooney has two chances to redeem himself for The Good German and Ocean's Thirteen. Leatherheads (Dec. 7), which he also directed, is a romantic comedy with Renée Zellweger set in the early days of football and co-starring John Krasinski (TV's The Office). The more promising-looking Michael Clayton (Oct. 5) is a legal thriller about a whistle-blower. Think Erin Brockovich meets The Insider.
5. J'acCusack – Warm from 1408, John Cusack tries to turn up the heat with two movies that cast him as a caring father. In the Sundance hit Grace Is Gone (Oct. 12), he takes his two daughters on a road trip after his soldier wife dies in Iraq. In Martian Child (Oct. 26) Cusack's adopted son has psychological problems... unless he really is from Mars. Sister Joan Cusack appears with John in that one, and in War, Inc., an action comedy that may also open this year.
6. Afghan with the Wind – Various aspects of war in the Middle East are dramatized in five films that sound promising: Lions for Lambs (Nov. 9) with Robert Redford directing himself, Meryl Streep, and Tom Cruise, in a drama about an investigation into soldiers injured behind enemy lines; In the Valley of Elah (Sept. 21) has Tommy Lee Jones trying to find out why his son went AWOL after returning from Iraq; Charlie Wilson's War (Dec. 25), directed by Mike Nichols and co-starring Julia Roberts, finds Tom Hanks playing a Texas congressman who helped finance the Afghans' fight against the Soviets; The Kingdom (Sept. 28) is an action thriller with Jamie Foxx and Chris Cooper investigating a bombing in the Middle East; and The Kite Runner (Nov. 2), directed by Marc Forster (Monster's Ball, Stranger Than Fiction), has an Afghan who grew up in America returning home to help an old friend.
7. Music Music Musicals – Johnny Depp stars as the Demon Barber of Fleet Street in Tim Burton's version of the Stephen Sondheim musical Sweeney Todd (Dec. 21; wide release Jan. 11), with Helena Bonham Carter as the woman who bakes his victims into pies. In I'm Not There (Sept. 21) Todd Haynes (Far From Heaven, Velvet Goldmine) has more actors (Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Marcus Carl Franklin, Richard Gere, Heath Ledger, Ben Whishaw) playing Bob Dylan than played James Bond in the original Casino Royale. Beatles songs are the inspiration (the main characters are Jude and Lucy) for imaginative Julie Taymor's (Frida) '60s-set musical romance, Across the Universe (Sept. 28).
8. Austentatious – Jane Austen's life inspires her own work in Becoming Jane (Aug. 10), with Anne Hathaway as the young author-to-be who falls in love with James McAvoy. Her work inspires contemporary California women, who find their lives imitating her art, in The Jane Austen Book Club (Sept. 21).
9. New Films from Old Favorite Directors – Ever versatile, the Coen Brothers and Ang Lee explore new territory. Fresh off Brokeback Mountain, Lee examines Shanghai during the 1940s in Lust, Caution (Sept. 28), an intimate drama about a romance with political ramifications. The Coens tackle Cormac McCarthy's novel, No Country for Old Men (Nov. 21), with Josh Brolin making off with money in the aftermath of a drug deal gone bad and finding himself pursued by sheriff Tommy Lee Jones and bad guy Javier Bardem.
10. Three R's: Reservation Road (Oct. 19), a suburban drama directed by Terry George (Hotel Rwanda), with Mark Ruffalo as the man who accidentally killed Joaquin Phoenix' son; Rendition (Oct. 19) stars Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal in Gavin Hood's (Tsotsi) thriller about the secret interrogation of a suspected terrorist; and on the much lighter side, Rocket Science (Aug. 24) is a wonderfully offbeat comedy about a stutterer who's seduced into joining the high school debating team.
If I could write about 18 instead of ten I'd include:
Two mockumentaries on the way: Finishing the Game (Oct. 5) is said to return Justin Lin to the level of his debut film, Better Luck Tomorrow, with this speculation on how Game of Death was finished after star Bruce Lee died early in the filming. Walk Hard (Dec. 14) – even the title's funny – stars John C. Reilly as a musical legend of decades past, a contemporary of Elvis (Jack White).
Love in the Time of Cholera (Nov. 16), from Gabriel García Márquez's novel, is the story of a man who waits more than 50 years for the woman he loves to become a widow and give him a second chance. Well, he doesn't wait alone all that time– he is Latin.
Feast of Love (Sept. 14), an ensemble drama directed by Robert Benton (Kramer vs. Kramer), about the romantic entanglements of a group of friends in Oregon, stars Morgan Freeman, Selma Blair, Radha Mitchell, and Greg Kinnear.
The Eleventh Hour (Aug. 17), a sequel of sorts to An Inconvenient Truth, with Leonardo DiCaprio, who is prettier than Al Gore, narrating as well as being one of the writers and producers. It's said to focus on things we can do to restore the planet's ecosystems. (#1 – Don't vote Republican)
The Brave One (Sept. 14) – Jodie Foster had enough of the courtroom in The Accused. This time when she's attacked she goes out for vigilante vengeance. Neil Jordan (The End of the Affair, The Crying Game) directs. Terrence Howard and Naveen Andrews co-star.
American Gangster (Nov. 2) – Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe star in Ridley Scott's drama about drugs smuggled into Harlem in the 1970s in the caskets of American soldiers.
Youth Without Youth (Dec. 14) – Based on a novella by Romania's Mircea Eliade, this drama stars Tim Roth as a fugitive professor in Europe in the 1930s. It's Francis Ford Coppola's first film in a decade, so we'll give it a shot, even though the director says it explores themes of "time, consciousness, and the dream-like basis of reality."
One I won't mention is The Signal (Sept. 7) because I appear in it for about ten seconds and that would be a conflict of interest, even though I've seen it and it's quite good (except when it slows down near the end) for a low-budget horror movie, with some solid laughs and scares. Of course, now I've mentioned it, but don't say I've ever skirted disclosure!
Regal Downtown- On the Downtown Mall, across from the Hook's offices (titles usually visible from our webcam!). Presents blockbusters and artier fare on its six screens. Times: 979-7669. Office: 979-7857. Fandango.com.
Carmike 6- By Albemarle Square, the theater boasts six screens and it's the only theater with a matinee every day of the week, every day of the year. Times: 973-4294. Office: 973-5972. Carmike.com.
Regal Cinema 4- Behind K-Mart. This is where most of the blockbusters come. Four stalls in the ladies' room, so expect a wait. Times: 980-3333. Office: 978-1607. Fandango.com.
Vinegar Hill- Downtown Charlottesville's original art-house theater is still the best for independent and foreign films. Times: 977-4911. Office: 977-8468. Vinegarhilltheater.com.
UVA is blessed with two film groups, both based in Newcomb Hall:
Cinemateque- Snooty French name, but shows closer-to-mainstream films: 924-7314
OffScreen- Blander name of the two, but actually screens the more adventurous independent, foreign, and classic stuff. 243-8741
If you wanna neck to celluloid, you have to drive pretty far, as Charlottesville lost its drive-in (where the Hydraulic Road Kroger now stands) in the '70s.
Fork Union Drive-In: Go retro on Route 612 South, about 40 minutes away. 842-3624
Hull's Drive In: Old-fashioned fun about an hour west in Lexington, 540-463-2621, hullsdrivein.com

Big movies shot in Central Virginia
The 2007 summer comedy Evan Almighty might be the most recent occasion when Hollywood has come knocking on our door, but it's hardly the first. Check out all the cinematic history (some parts of it more forgettable than others) that dots our landscape.
Virginia - (1941) - Starring Fred MacMurray, best known as the dad in My Three Sons, this melodrama was set at Monticola, a Howardsville-area mansion. Here, we find a southern belle who must choose between impoverished southerner Stonewall Elliot (MacMurray) and– egads– a Yankee industrialist.
Giant - (1956) - Texas rancher Rock Hudson visits a Maryland farm to buy a horse. What he finds is the owner's daughter, the lovely Elizabeth Taylor. It happened at Belmont, a cushy Keswick-area farm that plays a bit part in what would turn out to be the final film in the short career of James Dean.
The Four Seasons - (1981) - Alan Alda and Carol Burnett headline this "romantic" comedy with extensive shooting at Pantops, which was owned at the time by the Worrell publishing family. It's now home to the Kluge-Ruhe Museum of Aboriginal Art. Nominated for four Golden Globes.
Mutants in Paradise (1984) - This film seems to have started and ended the career of its writer/director Scott Apostoulo. "This film makes Attack of the Killer Tomatoes look like Citizen Kane," writes one IMDB reviewer. It does, however, feature the film debut of boxing's former Lightweight Champion of the World Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini.
Morgan Stewart's Coming Home - (1987) - This dull (directed by Alan Smithee) knock-off of Ferris Bueller's Day Off takes place in Washington, D.C. but is actually filmed in Charlottesville. Whatever it lacks in artistic quality, it may be worth finding in the bargain bin because it probably shows more local scenes and extras than all the other pictures on this list.
Toy Soldiers - (1991) - Albemarle County's own Miller School plays "The Regis School," an academy of misfits and rebels shunned from America's elite prep schools who put their bad behavior to use when terrorists take the school hostage. Cinema's two greatest drill seargents Louis Gossett, Jr. (An Officer and a Gentleman) and R. Lee Ermey (Full Metal Jacket) share screen time with the boy who would be Sam in Lord of the Rings, Sean Astin.
True Colors - (1991) - John Cusack and James Spader play two UVA Law students who pour booze on themselves at Macadoo's and go dancing at Trax. Even the Hook (which didn't exist then) has a tangential role. Our delivery driver lent his yellow Volvo to a scene filmed outside Trax.
A Kiss Before Dying - (1991) - Matt Dillon, Sean Young, and an ordinary house near the Korner restaurant served as key elements in this critically panned psycho killer story.
Sommersby - (1993) - They poured dirt on the streets of Lexington for this post-Bellum drama starring Richard Gere and Jodie Foster.
Major Payne - (1995) - After a critically acclaimed performance in Toy Soldiers, Miller School gets cast again, this time as the home of a JROTC program under the direction of hard-boiled Marine Benson Payne (Damon Wayans). Live grenades plus cute kids equals hilarity!
Hush - (1998) - The working title was Kilronan, the screen name given to Rocklands, the Orange County spread then operating as an inn (now a private residence). This dud of a film stars an up-and-coming actress named Gwyneth Paltrow playing daughter to abusive mom played by former local Jessica Lange.
Mickey - (2004) - Written and financed by John Grisham and partially shot at his Cove Creek Park baseball complex in Covesville, this boy-and-his-dad baseball picture was directed by another prominent Albemarlean: Hugh Wilson, the creator of WKRP in Cincinnati. Alas, despite starring Harry Connick Jr. and opening in about a dozen southern cities, it went quietly to DVD shelves.
War of the Worlds - (2005) - Supposedly set in New England, but they can't fool us. The spotlight shines once again on Lexington in one of this Tom Cruise blockbuster's most dramatic scenes.
Evan Almighty - (2007) - Directed by UVA alum Tom Shadyac, this sequel to the Jim Carrey vehicle Bruce Almighty reprises Steve Carell's role as a weatherman who gets the call from God (Morgan Freeman) to build an ark. Shooting in Crozet's Old Trail neighborhood wrapped in June 2006, and included a menagerie of animals, a 200-foot-long ark, and plenty of locals appearing as extras. That its nationwide reception was tepid didn't dim the enthusiasm of locals.

Limited Edition Photographic Print
Sidewalk Surfer Pit Stop, Huntington Beach, 1975 (from the series 'Locals Only')
Limited Edition
This print is a limited edition in three different sizes.
About the Artist
Hugh Holland, a self-taught artist, began experimenting with photography in the late 1960's but didn't discover his definitive subject until his move to Los Angeles from his native Oklahoma. His colour images are exceptional in their on-going contemporary feel. Shot with a special colour film and often taken during late afternoon, everything is bathed by the soft illumination of the low-lying sun. Special attention is paid to line and form, transforming the snap shot images to appear like carefully composed film stills.
These seminal images document the classic era of the early skateboard scene in California in the early 1970's, with many of the images featuring the now legendary names of the sport, such as Jay Adams and Stacy Peralta. Holland began documenting the burgeoning phenomenon in 1975 after becoming instantly captivated through a chance encounter with a group of skateboarding kids whilst driving up Laurel Canyon Boulevard.
Fervent enthusiasm for the energy of the counterculture quickly certified Holland's acceptance within the community. Every spare moment was spent capturing the everyday social interactions of groups, such as the notorious Z-boys from Santa Monica and Venice and the skaters of Kenter Canyon, Paul Revere and Brentwood.

Artificial leather DA264
Original artificial leather is characterised by:
• above-average grammage,
• fading resistance,
• abrasion resistance,
• excellent elasticity ,
• ease of cleaning,
• multiplicity of usage,
• increased efficiency of the material- at least 140cm wide
The usage of original automotive fabrics gives you certanity of its quality. Remember! Materials produced for
automotive industry must pass very strict, specialistic tests in terms of abrasion resistance (think, how many times
do you sit on the drivers seat), temperature resistance, flame retardancy etc.
Lower the prices. Using artificial leather on a chosen elements of the upholstery you can significantly reduce the
expences. Most manufacturers, even the ones of expensive brands offer its clients the so-called half-leather package
(vinyl on the seat sides and cloth on the middle sections)
This product is recomended for manufacturing and reparation of automotive upholstery, specifically for:
• Dashboards (cockpit)
• Upholstery hard elements
• Central consoles
• Gear shift boot covers
• Handbrake boot covers
• Headliner
• Seats, seat sides, middle sections, backs, rears, headrests
• Trim panels
• Car seats covers, both universal and custom-made
• Internal partition compartments
• Armrests
• Trim decor in minivans
• The interior of the vehicles in the public sector
• The cabins of heavy duty vehicles like diggers, bulldozers, tractors etc.
Automotive fabrics can also be used in furniture upholstery:
• the durability of the textiles outstands the standards of the materials used in mass-production
• fading resistance gives a long-lasting satisfaction with the product
• the uniqueness of the pattern, contributes to the design, you will not find it in any traditional furniture shop
in cheap letherette it is the backing material that determinates the durability of the fabric, the amount
of the actual cover material is so thin that it cracks easily- you will not find it here
Artificial leather is great to be used in areas exposed to intensive use:
• wallcovering – huge ease in keeping the area cleen
• covering the sheating of seats, benches furnitures exposed to a high use,
• covering the surfaces exposed to mosture
Automotive vinyls are produces in two options. The one designated to be used on sofas and seats are laminated
with PUR foam (the backing of the material is made of foam), sometimes with scrim to provide additional support.
The backing made of felt is less common.
Vinyls designetaed for dashboards (cockpits ) have no foam backing but only technical fabric directly
on the reverse side of the material.
A special grade represent perforated vinyls, dedicated for headlining and middle parts of seats.
Price for 1 linear meter
If you want to give greater softeness to the upholstered elements with this material just ask for a laminated option
If the material does not come in a version with PUR foam, please write to us we will help you choose the correct
If you need a perforated option simply write to us and we will send you an offer on perforated version.
If you have any doubts regarding the usage, colour, or any characteristics of the product please do not
hesitate to contact us.
We make every effort to ensure that descriptions and pictures give the most adequate and realistic characterisctics
of the product. If you need any additional information or want to check the material please ask for a sample
or order one of our sample books.
Packaging details:
We are shipping the materials in rolls of up to 30 kg of weight. The measurement of the parcel is important as well.

Store fabrics on the cardboard rolls, preferably on hangers to prevent deformation.
Please note!!!
Colour in the picture may be slightly different from the colour of the material. It depends on the settings of your
graphics card and monitor. Differences in colour are easy to be seen by watching the same image
simultaneously on different monitores.
No customer reviews for the moment.

WHAT IS A QUANTUM? (Dec, 1930)
By PAUL R. HEYL, Ph.D. Physicist United States Bureau of Standards, Author of "The New Frontier of Physics", Contributing Editor Scientific American
"Do you remember," said the visitor, "when I came here some time ago, asking you to tell me what an atom was?"
"Yes," said the scientist, "and I could not do it."
"Perhaps you did better than you thought. Now I have another question to ask you."
"I hope it is something easier this time."
"Well, it isn't about Einstein. I only want to know what the quantum theory is all about. What is a quantum, anyway?"
"You do not seem to be getting any more moderate in your demands," said the scientist. "How much do you know about it, to begin with?"
"Very little. All I have gathered is that a quantum has something to do with energy, and that it is considered a very important thing nowadays."
"Then so far you have nothing to unlearn," said the scientist. "We may as well start at the beginning. The quantum theory is a good illustration of the fact that history is prone to repeat itself as well in scientific thought as elsewhere."
"How is that?" asked the*visitor. "Is not science always progressive?"
"Yes, certainly; but some parts of it progress faster than others, principally because they had an earlier start. Our ideas regarding energy, for example, have recently undergone a change similar to that suffered by our concept of matter a great many years ago."
"In what way?"
MATTER has been studied by man for thousands of years. It was at first supposed to be continuous in its structure, as indeed it appears to be; but our present idea is that it is really discontinuous in its structure, built up of atoms and molecules and actually consisting principally of empty interspaces. This concept grew up gradually, but we may perhaps take the work of Dalton at the opening of the 19th Century as marking a time when the atomic theory was rather generally accepted." "Yes," said the visitor. "I have heard him called the father of the atomic theory."
"Still," continued the scientist, "there were men of scientific standing all through the 19th Century who clung to the older continuous theory. The last great disbeliever in atoms, Ernst Mach, died as lately as 1916."
"You surprise me!" said the visitor. "I did not know that the past projected so far into the present."
"Such are the facts of the case," replied the scientist. "This last opponent of the atomic theory lived to see the doctrine against which he so hopelessly fought conquer not only the domain of matter but also that of energy."
"Are there then atoms of energy?"
"Something very like it; only we call them quanta. Energy is a comparatively new concept, dating back only to the middle of the 19th Century. When it first took shape it was regarded as continuous."
"Of course," said the visitor. "I have always understood it that way. The continuous stream of light and heat from the sun illustrates that."
"How do you know that the stream of light from the sun is continuous?"
"Why," said the visitor, "there are no dark spaces perceptible—but then," he added with a smile, "I suppose the same might be said of matter."
"Exactly. The cases are parallel. For good reasons we believe in the existence of atoms, though no one has ever seen them; and also for sufficient reasons we have come to recognize the discontinuous nature of energy. History is repeating itself in scientific thought."
"So that is what the quantum theory is all about!" said the visitor. "But how did this change in our ideas of energy come to pass?"
"Very much as the atomic theory of matter came to supersede the continuous theory. One was found to fit the facts of experiment better than the other. The historical parallel is perfect."
"This is getting interesting," said the visitor. "Tell me how it happened."
"IT began over 30 years ago, shortly after the discovery of the X rays. It was soon found that air or any other gas exposed to the passage of X rays became electrically conducting. Bring a charged electroscope near an X-ray tube in action, and the divergent gold leaves will collapse at once; the charge leaks away through the air, which under normal conditions is one of the best of insulators. It was found that this conducting property of the air was caused by the fact that some of its atoms were split up by the X rays into two parts, bearing opposite electrical charges, though the original atom was electrically neutral. This is called ionization of the gas. And the surprising thing was that so few of the atoms were ionized. Although the gas was swept through and through by successive waves of X rays, only about one atom in a million million was thus broken up." "I should say," said the visitor, "that that net must have had a lot of big holes in it."
"Exactly," said the scientist, smiling. "Put into scientific language, that was just what J. J. Thomson thought about it. He was forced to the conclusion that the advancing wave of X rays was not uniform, but of a beady or lumpy structure, the energy of the wave being concentrated mostly in spots and spread
out thinly elsewhere. His explanation was that only these intense spots of energy were equal to the task of splitting up an atom, and from the fact that so few atoms were ionized he reasoned that the wave front must be made up principally of thin places."
"A perfectly natural conclusion," said the visitor. "But where do the atoms of energy come in—and the empty spaces between them? This thick-and-thin structure is just as continuous as if it were uniform."
"True enough," answered the scientist. "The quantum theory carries things to the limit of supposing all the energy to be concentrated in the spots with the interspaces empty. This extreme the X-ray evidence that I have mentioned did not require, and it is a principle of scien-tific thought that we are never to assume more than is necessary to explain the facts. It required evidence of another sort to force us farther. This next step is due to Planck, who in 1900 suggested the modern form of the quantum theory."
"On X-ray evidence?"
"No; the evidence was of a different nature. It had to do with light. Theory and experiment had, in a certain field, failed to agree. Planck brought them into agreement by supposing energy to be atomic in its structure."
"Was the discrepancy between theory and experiment so serious as to require this radical step?"
"IT would have been serious, no matter what its magnitude, provided that it was great enough to be sure of; but judge for yourself. What happens when a piece of iron is heated?" "It becomes red hot." "And then—?"
"Yellow, and finally white hot." "But suppose I should tell you that it should not act that way; that on theoretical grounds it ought to show a blue color from the start, no matter how hot it was?"*J "I should consider that a very serious discordance. Was it really as bad as that?"
"Yes, the classical theory insisted on predict all the keys of an organ in succession, beginning at the lowest. To the lowest frequencies would be added successively those higher in the scale, until at last the whole range (or spectrum) would be present. But the classical theory demanded that the high frequencies should appear from the start, and always be more intense than the lower ones."
"And Planck's theory straightened out this discrepancy?"
"Perfectly. On the quantum theory we suppose that energy is made up of atoms or quanta. Less than one quantum can not be absorbed or emitted by a body, and all emission or absorption must be in multiples of this fundamental quantum."
The visitor looked blank.
"It is something like our money system," continued the scientist. "The smallest amount we can pay anybody is one cent, and any amount that changes hands must be a multiple of one cent. Now suppose your income was small, say one cent per hour, and that your creditors were pressing you. All you could do would be to pay out one cent now and then. This corresponds to the case of iron slightly heated. The influx of heat is not rapid, and the iron can emit only quanta of low frequencies—coins of low value. If your income was more rapid you might be able to pay out nickels or even dimes occasionally along with the cents. So as the iron is more intensely heated it is able to emit quanta of higher frequencies along with the lower ones."
"Is there only one fundamental quantum?"
"No, matters are more complicated than that. It is like having several different kinds of currency circulating together; English, French, German, as well as our own. The smallest coins of each kind would be different in value, and not exact multiples of each other; and we would have a series of multiples •' of each kind in circulation together. There may be many quanta of different frequencies, and a radiating body may emit multiples of any of them."
"But nothing but exact multiples? No fractional quantities?"
"Apparently not."
"Why is that?"
"We do not know."
THE visitor was silent for some moments. Then he said:
"The only reason why I can not pay out or receive anything but exact multiples of one cent is because the mint in this country does not coin anything else. It is not a limitation on my part. In England I would not find the slightest difficulty in paying out multiples of a half penny, although that is not exactly equal to one cent."
The scientist nodded approvingly.
"I agree with you. This curious restriction to multiples of a quantum in exchanges of energy may be a limitation arising from Something in the structure of the molecule, or it may be that Nature's mint coins nothing but "even multiples of a quantum. I am inclined to the latter view. The fact that a molecule can actually emit almost any quantity of energy that can be imagined, provided that there is a fundamental quantum of which it is a multiple, suggests that the limitation is not in the molecule."
The visitor smiled.
"I have read that Sir John Herschel once compared atoms to manufactured articles, because of their close similarity. Now it seems that we must think of energy likewise. Nature coins quanta and multiples of quanta, and it is against the law to clip or debase the coinage."
"Yes," said the scientist. "A quantum seems to be indivisible."
"Just as it used to be thought the atom was."
"Your point is well taken," answered the scientist. "But up to the present we have no experimental evidence requiring us to assume the contrary."
"Well," said the visitor, "to return to my original question, what is a quantum? If we magnified a light wave sufficiently what would we see?"
"It is no more possible to magnify a light wave sufficiently to perceive its structure than to magnify matter enough to see the molecules; but if we could sufficiently enlarge an advancing front of a light wave it would probably appear as a lot of bright specks on a dark background."
"That rather suggests Newton's corpuscular theory of light."
"Quite so, except for the important difference that each quantum is vibrating with a certain definite frequency."
"And what is it that vibrates? What is a quantum?"
"Nobody knows. Some have thought it to be a little train of waves, something like a dart; others have pointed
out that it is more probably a three-dimensional affair. We have no more idea of what a quantum is than we have of the nature of an atom; and, as you know, our concept of an atom is a good deal like a moving picture."
"Three dimensional?" said the visitor. "How big is a quantum?"
"That question has been asked by others. The answer seems to depend on the direction by which we approach the question. For instance, a quantum of light must enter the eye as a whole to excite vision. Less than a quantum will not do. And yet, from astronomical considerations, a quantum of starlight must have about the dimensions of a barrel."
"And all that has to get into the pupil of the eye? That is something like packing the genie into a bottle."
"We frequently encounter contradictions of this sort in the early stages of scientific thinking about any subject. It indicates usually that our ideas are as yet incomplete and fragmentary. We must attain a broader and more general concept, of which these contradictory pictures may be seen to be special cases."
"The philosophers of old," remarked the visitor, "used to say that Nature makes no jumps; but what with atoms and quanta it begins to look as if discontinuity was the first law of Nature."
"There is a curious consequence of this discontinuity," said the scientist, "which probably you have not heard of. Suppose that you took a pocket full of pennies and went to visit an orphan asylum, and on your arrival found that there were more children than pennies. Even allowing only one cent to each child some would have to go without. But perhaps you see what I am coming to," said the scientist, breaking off as the visitor began to smile.
"Not exactly," said the visitor. "But I can see that for 'children' we must read 'molecules' and for 'pennies', 'quanta of energy.'"
EXACTLY," said the scientist. "We have a pretty good idea of the energy value of a quantum just as we have of the size and mass of a molecule, though we can not tell just what either looks like. And it works out in this way: the total heat energy in a body may consist of fewer quanta than the number of its molecules. This is possibly the case in red hot iron. It is a curious thought that in such a body there may be molecules here and there as devoid of energy as if the whole body were at absolute zero."
"Poverty and riches rub elbows among molecules as with men," said the visitor. "Very human little fellows, these."
"Perhaps," said the scientist, "the molecules of which we are made up might view the matter oppositely, and with more reason."

Do we have a FAILURE to stem the contagion? That is the question this morning following Irelands' "bailout." Spreads on Irish bonds are UP this morning, not down. Spreads on Portuguese debt is blowing wide this morning, rising more than 40 basis points as the next victim of "rescue" is attacked. You know that Spain and Italy are right behind.
Below is this morning's reaction in the dollar (left), and euro (right). Not the results they want from a huge bailout:
At what point does the union simply collapse? How many billions in rescue funds can be generated before they finally admit that the entire region is broke and that the Euro has failed? IT HAS FAILED. The terms of the Union have already been broken, and I fail to see how it can survive in its present state as the crush of debt to come gets bigger and bigger very fast. Spain and Italy are many times larger than Greece and Ireland, the end of pretend is near.
And this so called Irish bailout is not even close to being a done deal itself – only broad strokes and agreement to leave their corporate tax rate alone, but no details regarding amounts or timing have been reached other than the government will have to inject an immediate $6 billion into their banks! Why immediate if their banks are all okay? Oh yeah, and Ireland "asked" for it… I must have read that a hundred times, what bull. Part of this deal is that supposedly the Irish banks will be restructured to be made smaller, with some parts sold off overseas… what they didn't say is if the "bad bank" idea being floated over the weekend is a part of that restructuring. If so, that is nothing but the shell game whereby they dump bad investments into a shell corporation to be bankrupted later leaving that group of investors high and dry. They should be high and dry, but so too should the banks, their good assets should be sold to make good on their bad – that's the rule of law, the shell game is ILLEGAL yet governments are doing it anyway (including ours).
And there is more and more resistance to this from factions within Ireland (appropriately so). And not just within Ireland, there are people inside of Germany threatening to sue over what has become the "Bailout Union (BU)." All of these bailouts are outside of the EU charter and are not supposed to be happening. In effect all of Europe is being placed on the hook to bailout European banks (boy, do we know what that feels like). But in Europe the countries are supposed to be sovereign, and being in perpetual and insurmountable debt is certainly not living free, it is living as a slave to the banks who are their masters.
But the people of the world continue to let the bankers control them. It starts out so subtly that we don't even realize its happening. For example, just last week I received a statement in the mail from USAA who insures my property… in it was a notice that USAA is using personal credit information to set insurance rates! They show a full page table describing why certain negative credit events correlate to higher insurance risks, and thus higher premiums.
Now think about this for awhile… it may seem somewhat appropriate on the surface, especially to good actors like me who have low rates, but I have two big issues with this: One is that it works against the poor to keep them poor; and two, which is far more important, is that it conditions the population to CONFORM to the BANK'S RULES. This credit reporting system now affects every aspect of our lives, where we live, where we can work, and how much we pay for other things besides just DEBT. CONFORM OR ELSE. But in this case CONFORMING means you better not cross your corporate BOSS, and you better not disagree with anyone who can affect your credit rating or you will pay and pay and pay. Thus you have very LIMITED RECOURSE, but the corporations have nearly instant and unlimited recourse. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.
Because resistance is futile, I would argue that resistance is MANDATORY.
Here's Pat Rabbitte demonstrating the first steps of what I mean… where are the politicians in this country who have spines?
Sorry to break the news to you, but the people of the world are at WAR. The war is the people versus the central banks. Unfortunately we don't yet collectively recognize the real enemy, but that recognition is developing. Also unfortunate is that the banks feed the corporations and in turn the politicians - as a result you get self-explanatory charts like this one that Jesse provided this weekend:
Markets? What a joke. With politicians on that side of the equation, is there any wonder that there are no adults to police the markets? Insider trading, dark pools, HFT machines, bailouts, POMOS, oh my. None of it is real, none of it serves the purpose for which they were created. FRAUD is rampant, it is no place for your money, not until the rule of law is enforced and is restored. That likely won't happen until we change WHO controls the production of our money. Under the current system the private central banks produce and control all the money and they ARE THE "FED" – the same banks own and control the media and the military industrial complex. They own the exchanges, and thus they can see your bids and your stops before they are even executed. They have built high speed networks to arbitrage in milliseconds any move you make. They are the markets and they are profiting simply by stealing from you, and through the use of accounting and control FRAUD.
Here's the ironic part… despite creating money (as debt) and owning all of the above, they are INSOLVENT. And that simply goes to show you how crooked the mobsters are – and that anyone in America should respect or bow to a puppet like the "Fed" is beyond me. Don't fight the "Fed" - my ass. That very statement gives them power that does not belong to them.
As far as economic reports this holiday shortened week, the main event is tomorrow with the 2nd report of 3rd quarter GDP. The first whack claimed (falsely) that the economy is growing at a 2% pace, and now the consensus is looking for that to be revised higher to 2.4%! Existing Home Sales is also reported tomorrow.
Today the Chicago "Fed" released its National Activity Index. In negative territory for the 5th month in a row and the three month moving average getting more negative, here's Econoday:
In October, the Chicago Fed national activity index improved to a reading of minus 0.28 from minus 0.52 in September. Three of the four broad categories of indicators that make up the index made small positive contributions, while the consumption and housing category continued to make a large negative contribution.
The index's three-month moving average, CFNAI-MA3, decreased to minus 0.46 in October from minus 0.33 in September, reaching its lowest level since November 2009. October's CFNAI-MA3 suggests that growth in national economic activity was below its historical trend for the fifth consecutive month. With regard to inflation, the amount of economic slack reflected in the CFNAI-MA3 suggests subdued inflationary pressure from economic activity over the coming year. Production-related indicators made a contribution of plus 0.08 to the index in October, up from minus 0.12 in September. Manufacturing industrial production increased 0.5 percent in October, up from a 0.1 percent gain in the previous month; and manufacturing capacity utilization increased to 72.7 percent in October from 72.3 percent in September
Just remember that anything released from the "Fed" is suspect at best, so negatively reporting on themselves should be viewed that reality is much worse. NEVER give someone the power to report on their own performance – yet another doorway to fraud that was opened by the Federal Reserve Act.
So what does the stock market do from here? I don't know for certain as we are in a transition point. If the contagion continues, then the markets are toast here and now. Many people this weekend were expecting a bounce, and many, many people are looking for a larger 5th wave higher. Will it develop? It doesn't have to! But it could.
And thus we are still in the same area, still failing to break above the 61.8% retrace mark and still failing to break over 1200 on the S&P. We'll track support and resistance levels and look for a trend to develop. The EW experts believe we're in a wave 4, it certainly is acting like it, but again, it could be that hindsight will prove that count incorrect, that's why we're watching key levels like 1129 which is still a ways down there.

Washington Nationals first baseman Adam LaRoche today was named the recipient of the 2012 National League Rawlings Gold Glove for first basemen. The defensive citation is the first of LaRoche's career.
LaRoche, who could be a free agent by week's end, posted career high offensive numbers which could have garnered him more attention overall, allowing his defensive prowess to shine for the voters — N.L. managers and coaches. It also helps that stalwarts such as Albert Pujols and Adrian Gonzalez now ply their trade in the other league.
LaRoche beat out last year's winner, Joey Votto of the Reds, and Freddie Freeman of the Braves to earn his first career Gold Glove.
The hardware should be especially rewarding to LaRoche, who came back from shoulder surgery to post his finest offensive season to go along with his normally stellar defense as the 33-year old looks to sign a long-term contract. He's sure to waive his option and test the free agent waters should he and the team fail to work out a long-term deal before he can file for free agency at the end of the week.
From the press release:
LaRoche led all National League first baggers this season in fielding percentage (.995), games started (149) and innings (1323.1). At 6.1, LaRoche also paced NL first basemen (min. 1000 innings) in Ultimate Zone Rating, a figure that blends the number of runs above or below average a fielder is in three categories: range runs, double play runs, and error runs combined. He also led the NL with 159 plays made and 38 plays made out of zone (OOZ).
LaRoche is the third Washington-based big leaguer to earn a Rawlings Gold Glove. Third baseman Ryan Zimmerman earned the Nationals first Gold Glove in 2009, while Senators catcher Earl Battey earned the first of his three career Gold Gloves in 1960, his lone season in Washington. Rawlings established the Gold Glove in 1957 to reward defensive excellence.
Beyond his Gold Glove season in the field, LaRoche enjoyed a breakout season at the plate in 2012, hitting .271 with 35 doubles, a career-high 33 home runs, 100 RBI (tied career high) and a career-best 76 runs scored in 154 games. Louisville Slugger will announce their 2012 Silver Slugger recipients Thursday at 6 p.m. (ET) on MLB Network.

Fish Vendor Cuts Off Business With Market Basket, Calls for Return of Former Management
A major local vendor says it has canceled its business with Market Basket after several issues receiving payments from the embattled grocery chain's current management.
Many vendors have struggled in light of the ongoing conflict that has slowed business to a near halt at Market Basket. But seafood vendor Boston Sword & Tuna has received payments to cover some of its losses on seafood sales during the dispute.
According to CEO Tim Malley, Boston Sword & Tuna provides Market Basket with 30,000 pounds of salmon per week, as well as upwards of 25,000 pounds of other seafood items. The company has done business with Market Basket for about 10 years, he says.
The sale and stocking at Market Basket of perishable items (including seafood) have been affected since July 18, when employee protests resulted in the slowing and stoppage of many deliveries. The effect of that action on vendors has been previously reported by The Boston Globe.
Malley says payments from Market Basket to Boston Sword & Tuna have been erratic since then, at one point falling behind by two weeks. That prompted the vendor to send a letter threatening legal action. A quick response from co-CEO Felicia Thornton followed, and attempted to reassure the vendor.
The missed payment was not the "final straw,'' according to Malley.
On Friday, Market Basket sent an overpayment of more than $400,000 to Boston Sword & Tuna. It was the receipt of that check that Malley says made him question the direction of the company's current management.
Malley told Boston.com in a statement:
There could only be two answers to these accumulating mistakes and self-destructive strategies. One was that the CEOs were way over their heads. How many mistakes like this were being made? How would the shareholders from either side of the feuding family feel knowing that mistakes of this magnitude were being made? The only other explanation seemed to be a deliberate attempt to sabotage the future of the company.
Malley says Friday's overpayment was the second such instance under co-CEOs Thornton and James Gooch, though the first time they were only overpaid by $88,000.
Malley told Boston.com that despite his recent concerns, he wanted to give current management a chance. He says the co-CEOs have been professional and respectful, but thinks they were "dealt a bad hand'' by the Market Basket board of directors. But the recent actions and the summer's worker and customer protests related to the firing of former CEO Arthur T. Demoulas have caused him and his business partner to take their business to other grocery chains.
"Going public with these facts has been a very difficult decision for us. We have enjoyed a business relationship with Market Basket, its former owners and buyers, which many in business never get to experience,'' Malley told Boston.com in his statement. "We think the time has nearly run out for saving this great institution and all those who depend on it.''
Michael Scola, Malley's partner and the president of Boston Sword & Tuna, shares the same concerns about the company's current leadership. "Their strategies are failing and only the return of the former management team would save the company,'' he said.
A Market Basket spokesperson offered the following comment in response to the decision by Boston Sword & Tuna to pull its business:
Market Basket's leadership has been working directly with Michael Scola to find a solution that works for his company, Boston Sword and Tuna. We do understand the problems that the shutdown of the warehouse and distribution system have caused Market Basket vendors, Mr. Scola and countless others who are caught in the middle of this situation.
The spokesperson released a second statement later in the day, placing the blame for vendor issues on employees who walked off the job.
When a distribution network set up over decades is shut down in one day it is naive to assume any company would not suffer. The longtime employees that ran Market Basket's buying and distribution system walked out on their jobs, their customers and their vendors on July 18. That is precisely the reason Market Basket's stores have had only limited perishable items in stock since. We do understand the problems that the shutdown of the distribution system has caused Market Basket's vendors who are caught in the middle of this situation. We have been diligently working with vendors to limit the damage the walkout has caused.
