Low Popahirum, Louisiana Edition (5-12-14)

"From the earliest days of his presidency, Barack Obama has shown a particular animus against Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal, and has repeatedly held Louisiana citizens hostage to that animus. The latest outrage came via a May 2 letter from the national Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) disapproving Jindal's brilliant semi-privatization of state hospitals that, in less than a year, already has resulted in better patient services across the board – thus putting at risk hundreds of millions of dollars in ordinary federal reimbursement for indigent care." – Quin Hillyer/National Review
"The state Board of Elementary and Secondary Education has called a last-minute meeting for Monday to consider amending its proposed $3.6 billion funding formula for public schools. The Senate Education Committee rejected the plan May 1 due to a provision that could automatically increase the elementary/secondary budget down the road." – NOLA.com
"The weekend was bloody in New Orleans. Police say that from Friday through Sunday, at least 12 people were shot. One of the victims was a pregnant woman who was shot in Algiers late Sunday. According to the police, around 10:50 p.m., the woman was shot in the neck, chest and back in the 11000 block of Patterson Road. She was taken to the hospital." – WWL-TV
"Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) is in the reelection race of her life, but two early polls in the past month disagree sharply on how much danger she's in. A closer look reveals why." – Washington Post
"Gov. Bobby Jindal covered everything from his Catholic conversion as a teenager to high-profile battles over birth control and same-sex marriage in a commencement speech he gave Saturday (May 10) at Liberty University, the conservative Christian college founded by the late televangelist Jerry Falwell in Lynchburg, Virginia." – NOLA.com
"An execution that went horribly wrong in Oklahoma will keep condemned killer Christopher Sepulvado alive through the football season in Louisiana. It even could have larger implications as state officials struggle to fix a broken death penalty process." – Baton Rouge Advocate
"Louisiana's first lady Supriya Jindal and Korie Robertson of 'Duck Dynasty' rappelled down a 24-story building in Baton Rouge on Friday — all in the name of adoption." – Washington Times
"LSU 'won' the NFL draft with a national high of nine draftees, led by receiver Odell Beckham Jr., the 12th pick overall, according to The Wall Street Journal." – Baton Rouge Advocate
"Now is the perfect time for those not registered to vote to do so. The Louisiana Secretary of State's Office has a weeklong of events planned in an effort to get residents registered." – WAFB
"Lawmakers want more study about creating a statewide elevator and escalator inspection system for Louisiana." – Shreveport Times

'WeCrashed' Lands Not With a Bang But a Whimper (Recap)
Sydney Grullon-Matos
Jared Leto as Alex Neumann and Kyle Marvin as Miguel McKelvey. (COURTESY: AppleTV+)
WeCrashed is the dramatization of the Wondery podcast by the same name, following the rise and fall of WeWork founder Adam Neumann (Jared Leto) and wife Rebekah (nee. Paltrow – yes, she is related to that Paltrow) Neumann (Anne Hathaway). The first three episodes of the series establish how WeWork came to be through flashbacks that give viewers insight into Neumann's desperation to become someone in a country to which he's foreign to through his various failed entrepreneurial pursuits. From onesies with knee pads to a collapsible high heel – because "comfort shouldn't be sacrificed for fashion" (a solid point) – we're shown how well Adam can deliver an elevator pitch for his ideas and still be unable to find financial backing for them. And with no actual business experience, it's Adam's charisma that finally lands him investors willing to funnel money into his endeavor.
Leto's performance as Adam is transformative for the method actor; he's almost unrecognizable in the role. We see how easily he can manipulate people into doing what he wants by selling them his vision of the future and how grand it will be when his company truly does finally take off. Through Adam's salesmanship, WeCrashed begins to establish itself as what it's sold as: a love story.
Anne Hathaway as Rebekah Neumann with Leto as Adam. (COURTESY: AppleTV+)
Much of the series' screen time is dedicated to the relationship between Adam and Rebekah, with WeWork's rise to the top of the office space real estate game serving as its backdrop. Hathaway's performance does most of the heavy lifting, and, with a tonal voice shift that could rival Amanda Seyfriend's in The Dropout, Hathaway may very well be the show's real star. At first, you wonder how someone as put together as yogini-in-training Rebekah could fall for a man as disheveled as Adam, who is so broke when they first meet that he's charging for a rooftop BYOB party to cover rent for his first office space. However, by the middle of episode one, Rebekah is the inspiration behind Adam's idea to pursue a communal office space as an actual business venture. When his venture takes off, Rebekah can pursue her dream of being an actress – just like her cousin, Gwenyth Paltrow. It proves a pipe dream, and one of the most rawest scenes of the series thus far is Rebekah's stairwell breakdown after her disastrous performance as Masha in The Seagull, when it dawns on her that she's not meant to be an actress.
In fact, most of the series' dramatic scenes pertain to Rebekah's backstory, delivered through a series of flashbacks in episode three, and most notably in regard to her relationships with the men in her family. WeCrashed's flashbacks make clear that she's a daddy's girl; her father, Bob Paltrow (Peter Jacobson), was always ready to give her whatever she wanted in life; and the death of her older brother, Keith, had the biggest influence on who Rebekah would become
WhileWeCrashed is an interesting watch, the imbalance between the time dedicated to the two main characters' backstories is disorienting, to say the least. Adam's failed business attempts get too much attention, at the expense of how his journey of wanting to start a business in New York came to be. There's still plenty of room for that to change, though, with five episodes left to go in this eight-part miniseries.

Building championship cultures - one team at a time.
We have a long history working in professional and amateur sports, with athletes, teams and coaches. In fact, we were founded in athletics.
In the late 1960s, the first recipients of the nascent Pacific Institute education were Lou Tice's high school football team members. After their parents and Lou saw the changes in the children, Lou was compelled to prepare the education for broader use. With a football team that went from the bottom to the top of the league, during one season, there was reason to believe that this effect would not only work in schools but would be valuable in the corporate world as well. The Pacific Institute® was birthed.
The Pacific Institute's education is built upon the research from cognitive science and social learning theory. It employs results from such luminaries as Dr. Albert Bandura of Stanford University, Dr. Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania, and Dr. Gary Latham of the University of Toronto. Our mindset education takes the complex research results and makes them easy to understand and easy to implement – personally, professionally and organizationally.
Nick Saban was hired by the University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team in 2007, and was pummeled by a 7-6 record that same season. Coach Saban brought in The Pacific Institute and put his players through the PX2® program during training camp in 2008. It didn't take long for the Crimson Tide to become the number one ranked team in the country, leading to an eventual 12-2 record.
The Pacific Institute returned in 2009 to induct incoming freshmen and provide a refresher course for returners, which led to the BCS National Championship in 2010, and Alabama's first Heisman Trophy winner, Mark Ingram. Saban was named "The Most Powerful Coach in Sports," and featured on the front cover of Forbes Magazine in 2008.
Because of the immense success the Institute has had with the University of Alabama's football team, TPI has been asked to implement their curriculum with Alabama's basketball team, as well as football squads from Oklahoma and Arizona State.

Q: Lifetime of variable in a match pattern Trying to compile the following code:
#[derive(Show)]
pub enum E1 {
    A,
    B,
}
#[derive(Show)]
pub enum E2 {
    X(E1),
    Y(i32),
}

impl std::fmt::String for E1 {
    fn fmt(&self, f: &mut std::fmt::Formatter) -> std::fmt::Result {
        std::fmt::Show::fmt(self, f)
    }
}

impl std::fmt::String for E2 {
    fn fmt(&self, f: &mut std::fmt::Formatter) -> std::fmt::Result {
        std::fmt::Show::fmt(self, f)
    }
}

impl std::error::Error for E2 {
    fn description(&self) -> &'static str {
        match *self {
            E2::X(x) => {
                let d: &'static str = x.description();
                d
            },
            E2::Y(_) => "Unknown error",
        }
    }
}

impl std::error::Error for E1 {
    fn description(&self) -> &'static str {
        match *self {
            E1::A => "Error A",
            E1::B => "Error B",
        }
    }
}

fn main() { }

yields an error:
a.rs:17:39: 17:40 error: `x` does not live long enough
a.rs:17                 let d: &'static str = x.description();
                                              ^
note: reference must be valid for the static lifetime...
a.rs:15:9: 21:10 note: ...but borrowed value is only valid for the match at 15:8
a.rs:15         match *self {
a.rs:16             E2::X(x) => {
a.rs:17                 let d: &'static str = x.description();
a.rs:18                 d
a.rs:19             },
a.rs:20             E2::Y(_) => "Unknown error"
        ...
a.rs:15:15: 15:20 error: cannot move out of borrowed content
a.rs:15         match *self {
                      ^~~~~
a.rs:16:19: 16:20 note: attempting to move value to here
a.rs:16             E2::X(x) => {
                          ^
a.rs:16:19: 16:20 help: to prevent the move, use `ref x` or `ref mut x` to capture value by reference

                          ^
error: aborting due to 2 previous errors

Changing the match pattern to E2::X(ref x) produces a perhaps more detailed error but leaves me just as confused:
a.rs:16:19: 16:24 error: cannot infer an appropriate lifetime for pattern due to conflicting requirements
a.rs:16             E2::X(ref x) => {
                          ^~~~~
a.rs:17:39: 17:40 note: first, the lifetime cannot outlive the expression at 17:38...
a.rs:17                 let d: &'static str = x.description();
                                              ^
a.rs:17:39: 17:40 note: ...so that pointer is not dereferenced outside its lifetime
a.rs:17                 let d: &'static str = x.description();
                                              ^
a.rs:15:9: 21:10 note: but, the lifetime must be valid for the match at 15:8...
a.rs:15         match *self {
a.rs:16             E2::X(ref x) => {
a.rs:17                 let d: &'static str = x.description();
a.rs:18                 d
a.rs:19             },
a.rs:20             E2::Y(_) => "Unknown error"
        ...
a.rs:16:19: 16:24 note: ...so that variable is valid at time of its declaration
a.rs:16             E2::X(ref x) => {
                          ^~~~~
error: aborting due to previous error

The way I see it, x only has to live until x.description() returns, but the compiler seems to thing it needs to outlive the whole match block. Why? Why does it also insist on treating x as a reference when copying would probably be more logical?

A: As for x versus ref x, x won't work because you have only a reference to self and so cannot move the E1 value out of it—all you can do is take a reference to it.
But now the more important thing: you've got your definition of the description method incorrect, and the Rust compiler isn't warning you about that but is rather making life unpleasant for you.
This is the actual definition of the description method:
fn description(&self) -> &str;

Note carefully: &str, not &'static str. The compiler should have objected to the 'static in the signature, but alas, it did not. (This is the subject of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/21508, filed on account of this question.) Normally having specified a greater lifetime will be just fine, for it will just shrink it down to size, but in some situations it won't do what you thought it would—specifically, it has changed E1's description method to return a &str with its own lifetime, but in the E2 definition it is still wanting to return &'static str. Of course, the x reference is not 'static, so it fails to do it. Confusing, huh? Don't worry, it's mostly not your fault!
To fix this, remove all occurrences of 'static, to match the trait definition. Then because x is inside self the lifetimes will line up appropriately.

I've got some OEM ATA/66 cables on my IBM Deskstar 76GXP connected to a VST UltraTek/66 card. Do I need to get Granite Digital cables? Is there any performance improvement?
in situations where cabling is subpar, you can improve performance between 2-3MB/sec.
in some cases, it may be the only way to get things to work correctly.
we use them here exclusively because we routinely overengineer for performance and for reliability.
Yay another 2-3MB/sec for me!

Home Video Hovel- Girlfriend, by David Bax
by · Published August 6, 2012 · Updated August 6, 2012
More often than not, when one finds oneself pondering, upon having viewed a film, what its maker was trying to say, it's because something enigmatic has taken place. There has perhaps been some use of symbolism or metaphor that has left the auteur's intention intriguingly unclear. Watching Justin Lerner's Girlfriend, however, you may wind up asking the question not out of intellectual curiosity but out of bewilderment. Just what was he thinking, anyway?
Lerner, who also wrote the screenplay, tells the story of Evan (Evan Sneider), a man in his late teens or early twenties who has Down's Syndrome and lives with his single mother (Amanda Plummer) in an unspecified small town. He works alongside his mom waiting and busing tables at the local diner. He spends his free time hanging around a young woman with whom he went to high school named Candy (Shannon Woodward) and her young son, Simon (Nate Krawshuk). Evan obviously has feelings for Candy but she's still hung up on her ex-boyfriend and Simon's father, a hard-drinking, loose cannon type played by Twilight's Jackson Rathbone.
The actors whose names are listed above as well as numerous others are the film's strongest element. Lerner displays a clear aptitude for eliciting performances that are not only solid but that fit the tone and mood he's created for his film. While the supporting cast is more experienced, the brunt of the burden falls on the shoulders of Sneider, who carries it well.
Evan the actor, like Evan the character, has Down's Syndrome. The movie is shamelessly exploitative of that fact. It's not that Lerner exploits Sneider himself; at least not in any way that is visible on the screen. It's that he exploits the viewer's sympathies for him. Other characters aren't really mean to Evan. There isn't any name-calling to be found. But Lerner repeatedly dwells on the dissonance between Evan's simple desire to be a part of the adult world and the refusal of others to accept him on those terms. It's quite sad but it isn't put to any use beyond its dolefulness. Instead of gaining an understanding of Evan's inner life, we simply get melodrama and not very good melodrama at that.
What's most reproachable is that Lerner doesn't seem to want us to view Evan any differently than the other characters do. Late in the film, there is a collection of scenes in which Candy is afraid that something may have happened to her son. At this point, you may realize that this cheap ploy of endangering an innocent is merely another variation of what we've been witnessing the whole film in regards to Evan.
There is one scene that breaks the pattern. After having been somewhat cruelly, if inadvertently, allowed to believe that he has grown closer to Candy, Evan sees that she has once again returned to Rathbone's Russ. Evan takes out his rage on the diner and his boss there, who has done nothing to deserve it. It's a frightening display, well-acted by Sneider, and it's the only time the character is allowed to be flawed, even dangerous. For once, he's not being patronized.
Lerner's handle on atmosphere – thick without ever being oppressive – as well as the skilled contributions of editor Jeff Castelluccio keep things from being purely distasteful. Lerner also possesses a sharp eye for location. What he lacks, however, is any clear motive for making Girlfriend beyond tawdry and manipulative sentimentality.

SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: ALEJANDRA O'LEARY - EVEREST
SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: MILES DAVIS - THE COMPLETE BIRTH OF THE COOL
SPILL ALBUM REVIEW: PICAPICA – TOGETHER & APART
PicaPica
Together & Apart
Have you ever wondered what Steeleye Span would have sounded like had Brian Eno produced them? Well, wonder no more. PicaPica's new album, Together & Apart will answer that question for you.
Together & Apart, their debut, is a stellar album full of space and layers. There is a lot going on in the grooves of this album, and it is brilliant. The band blends their influences (The Beatles, folk, prog rock) into their own sound. Bands attempt this for years, PicaPica nail it on their first try.
Hailing from Scotland, the four-piece band is made up of Josienne Clarke (vocals), Samantha Whates (vocals), Adam Beattie (guitar, keyboards), and Sonny Johns (bass). Johns also produced the album. Together they make a glorious sound that crosses genres easily and yet they have their own distinct sound. Initially, you might think this is a straightforward album, but it is not. There is so much more, much like The Roches at their peak, being produced by Robert Fripp.
The vocals and instrumentation blend to form wave after wave of beauty and intense emotion. This is an album about love, loss, self-doubt, life, and surviving disappointment. They also come up with some fine lyrics that take some unexpected turns. Listen to the brilliant "Cast In Stone" with the clever line, "You didn't break me/I've never been strong". Not what one expects but it completely works. Then "Sucker Punch", a hard-hitting, angry, yet desperate song, that is lyrically and musically strong while maintaining a great deal of gentleness. "What can I ever do to be brave not weak". A brutally honest lyric. "What did I ever do to be ignored by you?" they ask, set to sparse guitar. When the band kicks in, it does feel like a musical "Sucker Punch".
Together & Apart ends as strongly as it begins with the beautiful "Stones", that sums up the album beautifully and, quite frankly, leaves you wanting more. It comes to a logical and musical conclusion. In the end you have just listened to a cohesive, well-produced album. The instrumentation and vocals are flawless.
PicaPica is the Latin term for a magpie, symbolizing that this band is not afraid to admit they borrow from other artists, much like a magpie borrows from others to create a nest, something new. PicaPica have created something new, while having both feet firmly planted in the past and their musical roots.

I've been on a bit of a blogging hiatus after being home for the holidays, but I am officially back!
This past week and a half has really been amazing. I was able to stay at my parent's house. I love sleeping in my old bed, hanging out with my family and seeing my dog.
Most of the Christmas cookies were already made when I got home so Matt and I made a batch of Gingerbread Men on our own and they came out really good despite the fact that I accidentally spilled more flour in them than the recipe required.
I also got to make delicious tamales with my family.
This is one of my favorite holiday traditions my mom brought with her from Costa Rica. Making tamales is a lot of work. Unfortunately my mom burned her hand on the stove Christmas night so I ended up doing a lot of the tamale preparation for the first time. I cooked the pork and kneaded the masa together. My brother Christian was also home from his college in California, so we worked together to make the tamales.
I was also able to see some of my best friends from college.
We got together at my friend Sara's house and she put together a nice spread of appetizers and we brought some wine. It was great to see everyone. Since I've been in school in Boston it's been a lot harder to see my friends so I love when we are able to get together. We all caught up and talked about all the new things going on in our lives. It's also great to hear that my friends are all doing so well for themselves. I'm really proud of all of them.
Friday night Matt's parents put together a masquerade party.
It was fun to dress up and wear masks for the night. That dress should look familiar, I liked it so much after featuring it in my post that I bought it. It was my first masquerade party and it was nice to see that so many people dressed up.
For New Year's Eve I went out with Matt and some of his friends.
Last year we stayed in for New Year's Eve so it was nice to get out and celebrate with friends.
I also got in five runs outdoors, it was nice to be able to still stay active with all the festivities. Today I was back to my regular eating and exercise schedule, which was nice. I got in a 4.5 mile run on the treadmill at a steady pace and it felt good.
After that whirlwind of a holiday, I'm back in Boston and back to work. Since I've been able to settle down I started really thinking of some resolutions and goals I want to set for myself for 2012.
In 2011 I really started to speak out more at work in regards to my ideas and issues I have noticed. People always see me as the nice guy, which I'm ok with, but sometimes people take that as weakness. I've had to become more assertive so people don't try to walk all over me. I think assertiveness is necessary to not only create boundaries, but to also get your thoughts and feelings out. I want to be assertive not just at work, but with all my personal interactions. This is something I'm constantly working on and is a a resolution I am renewing this year.
I'm ok at saving, but I would like to get better at it. I want to be more aware of my spending habits, so I can enjoy the things I really love and cut out the frivolous things. I'm also realizing that I'm getting older and there are things that I will start to want/ need in the not-so-distant future, like a car and a home, so I have decided to put more money into savings this year.
Come this spring I would like to run about one road race a month. I know this won't always be possible, but this is something I do really enjoy so I would like to be able to take part in more road races this year. I'm also considering some longer races. I still don't see a marathon in the cards for me, but instead of completely ignoring the idea of possibly doing a half marathon I might actually consider doing one this year… we'll see.
These are my resolutions for the new year, what are yours?

Uganda Mum Living in 'Extreme Poverty' in Scotland is Found Dead Next to Her Malnourished Baby Boy
in African Women, Shocking, World Buzz
A Ugandan mum living in extreme poverty in Scotland has been found dead next to her malnourished baby in a Glasgow flat.
Mercy Baguma, a refugee from Uganda, was found dead by police on Saturday, August 22 after friends raised the alarm when she had not been seen or heard from since Tuesday, August 18.
According to GlasgowLive, the baby boy was rushed to the hospital for treatment but was released yesterday with the child's father now caring for him in a different city.
The report said Mercy lost her job after her limited leave to remain in the UK had expired and was no longer allowed to work. She had to to rely on friends and charities to survive.
Speaking on the sad occurrence, Robina Qureshi, the Director of Positive Action in Housing said: "This is the third tragedy to affect the city's refugee population in as many months.
"Mercy contacted our charity on August 11 and said she was not getting any financial support yet had made an application to MigrantHelp.
"Had she lived she would have been a high priority for a crisis payment from our Emergency Relief Fund like hundreds of others left functionally destitute by the asylum system.
"The question remains, why are mothers and babies being left to go hungry in this city, why is it being left to charities and volunteers to pick up the pieces?
"Does society have anything to say about that other than call them a drain on society?
"The fact is there is no safety net if you're a refugee or migrant.
"You are left destitute and without resources. And you're left silenced by far right rhetoric for being forced to ask for help.
"Would this mother be alive if she was not forced out of her job by this cruel system that stops you from working and paying your way because a piece of paper says your leave to remain has expired?
"I'm sure Mercy's son will want to ask this and other questions once he is old enough."
A friend of Mercy has set up a GoFundMe appeal to raise funds for her infant son and to cover the costs of her funeral.
She described Mercy as an amazing "mother, sister and best friend" who "always put her family first."

Everton move for M'Baye Niang may not be imminent after all
French striker seems to actually be on holiday, contrary to yesterday's Echo reports.

If it seemed that Everton potentially signing three players in the span of 24-48 hours was too good to be true, well, it may have been.
The Liverpool Echo relayed yesterday that both Davy Klaassen and AC Milan forward M'Baye Niang were at USM Finch Farm, but as it turns out, it looks like only the Dutchman was in town.
Niang posted the following on his Instagram account today, which in rough terms, indicates he's away on vacation, because Liverpool looks nothing like the scene depicted below.
Niang, who was reported to be in England for medicals with Everton, posted this on his Instagram story: "Everton is like this? " pic.twitter.com/RyGqA0ylxc
— TheMilanBible (@TheMilanBible) June 16, 2017
Niang's post makes sense when viewed through the perspective of CalcioMercato's report that the player wanted to take time to ponder Everton's interest.
At this point, it's fairly clear that Steve Walsh and company have made AC Milan a firm offer for Niang. Given the Frenchman had no interest in remaining with Watford, it could be that he prefers his future to lie away from England.
"But even if Watford have an option to purchase that the management wants to activate, I do not see myself staying there. And that is only for personal reasons.
"I have given myself time to reflect, I weighed up the pros and cons and despite the great opportunity offered by Watford, I do not think my future lies there.
"I ask them to be understanding and accept my decision, which is irrevocable because I will not change my mind."
M'baye Niang via ESPNFC
In truth, Niang could be saving Everton from themselves. The club have already confirmed two excellent signings in Klaassen and Jordan Pickford, but the AC Milan striker has a cluttered past, and is yet to truly make good on his potential.
If Niang does turn down the Blues, it may be an opportunity for Walsh and Koeman to switch focus to Carlos Bacca, a forward with a better resume and one who is likely more capable of leading the line full-time.
Either way, Everton look set to sign two goal-scorers this offseason. One is likely to be Sandro Ramirez, but who the other is at this point is now anyone's guess.

5 'Drunken Psycho' Stocks to Buy
If you can look past the eye-popping description, Warren Buffett's assessment actually underscores a savvy investor mind-set
January 8, 2015	 By James Brumley, InvestorPlace Feature Writer	Jan 8, 2015, 2:35 pm EST	 January 8, 2015
The Oracle of Omaha has spoken, and he didn't pull any punches when he described Mr. Market as a "drunken psycho."
While it's a humorous characterization, the world's best-known investor wasn't joking when he uttered those words last month while chatting with Quicken Loans Chairman Dan Gilbert and President Jay Farner. His full take on how the market works was:
"This imaginary person out there — Mr. Market — he's kind of a drunken psycho. Some days he gets very enthused, some days he gets very depressed. And when he get really enthused, you sell to him and if he gets depressed you buy from him."
While not as eloquent as his usual adage "be greedy when others are fearful, and be fearful when others are greedy," both descriptions of the market's reality are on target.
Expert Picks: The 10 Best Stocks for 2015
More important to investors, it's a reality that's inescapable — Mr. Market really is a lunatic on occasion. That's not a reason to steer clear of stocks altogether, however. In fact, the market's wild antics occasionally create opportunities.
With that in mind, here are five "drunken psycho" stocks to buy explicitly because their selloffs were needlessly overdone by an overly volatile market.
Drunken Psycho Stocks to Buy: Trinity Industries Inc (TRN)
Railroad car manufacturer Trinity Industries Inc (TRN) fared well enough after crude oil started to tumble in June, but by October when it became clear that crude wasn't going to turn around anytime soon, TRN stock started to pay the price.
The core of the concern was twofold. As oil prices fell, coal demand slumped. But as oil prices fell, domestic production of oil itself was also threatened. That threat is still on the horizon — and has even been put into motion on some fronts — though it's looking like the rail industry is going to end up just fine.
As evidence to that end, competing rail car-maker and refurbisher Greenbrier Companies Inc (GBX) recently reported much-better-than-expected Q1 results. Odds are good Trinity Industries also is going to post similarly impressive numbers later this month.
After falling a hefty 48% since peaking in September, the potential for a major rebound means TRN stock deserves a spot on this list of stocks to buy in early 2015.
Drunken Psycho Stocks to Buy: First Solar, Inc. (FSLR)
Solar stocks also have fallen sharply with the implosion of crude oil prices. Shares of First Solar, Inc. (FSLR), for example, are down more than 40% since September because traders were convinced that cheap oil — and by extension, cheaper natural gas — would put new solar panel installation projects on hold.
Now it's becoming clear this might not be the case … at least not to the extent presumed.
As SolarCity (SCTY) CEO Lyndon Rive explained:
"I think people put energy in one big bucket, and oil, of course, falls into the energy bucket. But you have to look at how electricity is generated. In the U.S., almost no oil is used to create electricity."
As for First Solar, there's yet another reason besides its needless selloff that it's one of a few drunken psycho stocks to buy at this time: Analysts (still) love it, and are saying so publicly.
Standpoint Research upgraded FSLR stock to a "buy" earlier in the week, and even though Baird lowered its price target on First Solar, its new price target of $62 is still 47% higher than the current price of $42.
Drunken Psycho Stocks to Buy: Caterpillar Inc. (CAT)
Add Caterpillar Inc. (CAT) to your list of drunken psycho stocks to buy too.
Like most other industrial names that have been selling off of late, CAT stock is off 20% since July thanks to crude oil's tumble. In fact, the stock was recently downgraded from "neutral" to "underweight" by JPMorgan specifically because of its exposure to the oil and gas industry. Some suggest as much as 15% of its revenue is driven by the oil industry. The strong U.S. dollar isn't helping overseas sales, either.
So what, pray tell, makes Caterpillar such a hot buy here?
Contrarianism. Things (mostly perception) couldn't plausibly get much worse for CAT stock than they are right now, and as Warren Buffett also explained in his drunken psycho spiel, when Mr. Market is depressed, you buy from him.
Drunken Psycho Stocks to Buy: International Business Machines Corp. (IBM)
Just so there's no confusion, International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) has plenty of real — not just perceived — problems, not the least of which is that it's still waist-deep in a software, hardware and services paradigm.
It's a problem, as the world is moving away from those ideas and moving increasingly toward public clouds and self-service, which necessitates a more robust cybersecurity effort — things IBM isn't known for in the least. The fact that International Business Machines has seen revenue dwindle on a year-over-year basis for 10 straight quarters now underscores the idea that it's increasingly irrelevant.
On the flip side, it's not as if these problems are insurmountable, even though the market has priced IBM stock as if they are. All told, IBM shares have lost 20% of their value since April, as any lingering optimism was wiped away by the last couple quarters' disappointing results. The end result is a stock trading at a trailing price-to-earnings ratio of 9.4 that erroneously underestimates the brewing turnaround effort that's finally getting traction.
Drunken Psycho Stocks to Buy: Mattel, Inc. (MAT)
After falling 34% in 2014, Mattel, Inc. (MAT) can be named as one of the market's most underappreciated and underestimated stocks to buy in 2015.
Though it took a little too long to start shaking things up when the toymaker started to struggle in early 2014, in December, Mattel finally admitted to itself it needs fixing. The first step was putting new employee guidelines in place that should not only cull the amount of time wasted in meeting, but also make fun toys rather than corporate management a priority again.
Although it still could take a while for the overhaul to get traction, waiting until the turnaround is clearly, decisively working would be too late to step into MAT stock.
As of this writing, James Brumley did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

CSOR Supports Licensing Reform
A thoughtful approach...
Better serving the public interest.
What regulations affect your job? Find out here!
Your Job, and How It's Regulated
Our mission is to provide information to citizens, policy makers, and other researchers about the extent, scope, and effects of occupational regulation.
Use our Find Occupations page to select your State, Industry, and Occupation. It's that easy to learn what regulations and certifications affect your career field.
Established in 2016, The Knee Center for the Study of Occupational Regulation (CSOR) is an academic research center within the Shields School of Business at Saint Francis University. Located on the 3rd floor of the newly renovated Schwab Hall, the center offers student fellows the opportunity to conduct, analyze, and present research that goes toward developing a national database of occupational regulation, focusing first on healthcare occupations.
Licensing Basics
Is it time for occupational licensing reform? In the 1950s, about 5% of all occupations required some sort of licensing or certification. Today, almost 1/4 of U.S. jobs require a license!
Common sense tells us that jobs ranging from electricians and surgeons to architects and engineers should require some form of validation. The potential harm to be caused by an unqualified practitioner could be severe.
Unfortunately, in today's environment licensing and other onerous regulations may apply to dance instructors and hair braiders, manicurists and interior designers. Being required to get a license to become a travel guide, for example, boggles the imagination.
Even in cases where most would agree certification is a good idea, the requirements of licensing are often both burdensome and aimed at protecting the market share of licensees, rather than addressing public health and safety concerns.
The uncontrolled growth of occupational regulations only harms consumers by increasing costs and workers by limiting employment options.
Medical licensing laws, often enacted with the goal of improving healthcare for Americans, may contribute to increased costs and limited service options.
At CSOR, our goal is to research and catalog occupational regulations that affect the healthcare industry, but more importantly to understand the impact of these regulations on the costs and effectiveness of treatment. We believe that research can contribute to a regulatory environment with more healthcare choices, increased patient satisfaction, and better health outcomes.
From broadening the scope of practice for chiropractors to licensing pharmacists to prescribe certain medications, new views on occupational regulation hold the promise for a more vibrant and effective American healthcare system.
Find Your Occupation
Estimates indicate that at least 1,100 occupations require a license in at least one state. That's over one thousand careers that cannot be entered into without government permission.
At CSOR, our goal is to research and catalog occupational regulations that effect business, but more importantly to understand the impact of these regulations on safety, consumer costs, and the availability of services. We believe that research can contribute to a regulatory environment with strong job growth, less burdensome compliance, and more consumer choice.
From florists and taxidermists to plumbers and electricians, finding the regulations associated with your chosen field is easy at CSOR.
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, as many as 100 million U.S. citizens have a criminal record.
Those who are friends, family, or neighbors of these individuals are well aware of the unique set of challenges that previously convicted persons face when seeking employment.
At CSOR, we recognize that returning to the work force is critical so that individuals with criminal records can rehabilitate themselves. Unfortunately, occupational licensing laws may forbid them from doing so. This is why we are a member of the Justice for Work Coalition.
In the 2017 Fall Semester, CSOR will focus its research on the criminal justice aspect of occupational regulations and licensure.
Visit the Justice for Work Coalition
At CSOR, a big part of our commitment is to understand the effect that occupational regulation has on members and veterans of our armed forces.
Did you know that our military veterans, after serving their country, often move to civilian life with less of a chance of getting a job than the average American. One reason is unaddressed mental health issues a veteran may have after combat.
Additionally, studies show that veterans are less likely to highlight their individual skills, something employers may be looking for, and focus on their group participation and successes.
A priority at CSOR is to seek a better understanding of the challenges veterans face as they return to civilian life.

March Madness: St. Peter's Beats Burdock to Rich the Elite8
Rufus Elledge
PHILADELPHIA – The time has not yet come for the biggest losers in the NCAA men's tournament.
Tiny St. Peter's University is alive and advancing to the final eight, killing another basketball powerhouse in the NCAA tournament. The 15th-ranked Peacocks, 3 Burdock, stunned the target 67-64 ahead of a crowd that included several St. Peter's fans Friday night at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Jersey roared at the turnbike and approval.
Peacocks (22-11) No. 1 in the Eastern Regional Final on Sunday. Level 4 UCLA and No. 8 North Carolina are advancing to face the winner and have a chance to reach the final fourth place in New Orleans. They are number one now. 2 Kentucky, no. 3 Burdock and no. 7 have dropped Murray State and finished 8th in the top 13 or lower.
"I got a crowd playing basketball and having fun. That's all we do, "said St. Peter's coach Shaheen Holloway in a televised interview with his players.
The Peacocks caught national attention as soon as they fell to Kentucky – one of the national title favorites – advancing to the 16th round and finishing third and 15th. St. Peters is the only place in New Jersey that has advanced so far. Holloway on the 2000 Seton Hall team since the men's match as a point guard.
"We're happy but made no mistake, we're not satisfied," said guard Doug Edert, who finished with 10 points, including two clutch free throws in the final seconds. "We feel own."
The game was tight with 15 lead changes throughout and both teams had deep control of the trade in the second half. Burdock, known for his big, tall, athletic prowess, came out of St. Petersburg and out, but the Peacocks found a way to win anyway.
"They beat us like they beat the other two teams. They grinded us, "said Purdue coach Matt Painter.
St. Peter's defender Matthew Lee tied the game at 57 with 3:17 remaining, exactly one minute later when Peacock's leading scorer Daryl Banks hit a driving lap to lead III with 14 points. Teams traded baskets and free throws, but were not caught by Burdock.
The Peacocks came to Friday's game wearing T-shirts that read "More Possible".
"What are they going to say now?" Holloway said as his soldiers celebrated behind him. "Let's see later."

Kansas is the No. 1 seed to reach the 8th round only.
CHICAGO – Kansas' senior line-up was relegated to the 8th round on Friday, beating Providence 66-61 in the Midwest regional semifinals, becoming the only first-place team to advance in a week when upsets are the norm.
The Jayhawks controlled the match early on, blocking six Providence shots in the first 12 minutes and dominating the resumption of the first half. Providence, however, made its first Sweet 16 appearance in the quarter century, reaching the stabbing game again.
After trailing until the 13th, Noah Horchler quickly sank two 3-pointers in a row and pulled Fryers into a point in the second half. A few minutes later, he drove to the basket to give Providence a quick taste of lead.
But against the experienced Kansas team it proved to be not enough, even if sometimes elegant.
At the end of the first half, Jalan Wilson, a Jayhawk forward, missed two places, but each time he got his own rebound and was able to force the ball through the ring. Ochai Akbaji, the national player of the final of this year, scored only 2 of 8 field goals. But as Kansas looked tense and the fans became more aggressive, Akbaji reappeared later in the second half when Christian Brown served from behind the 3-point line to the alley-off. Akbaji cheered on the Jaihawk fans who were quiet all night at the United Center in Chicago.
Kansas, with its junior starter Redshirt Sophomore leaning on Remy Martin, a super-senior and Arizona State Transfer, he led the Jayhawks with 23 points. Brown, a junior and Wilson, a redshirt sophomore, both reached double digits in rebounds.
The Jay Hawks will enter their favorite against Iowa State or Miami on Sunday, and they are due to play each other late Friday. Iowa ranks 11th in the Midwest region and Miami ranks 10th.
But the Jayhawks' performance on Friday, following a closer-than-expected victory in the 32nd round against Creighton, left little to worry about their longevity in the latter part of the match. Kansas advanced to the 8th round for the eighth time during the tenure of coach Bill Self at Lawrence. Only one of those trips ended with a national title.

So, there it is. The Pacers traded Dale Davis, who they drafted in 1991, for a 2nd-round pick in 2019. The Pacers also turned Dale Davis' career season and only All-Star appearance into 8 more All-Star appearances (6 by O'Neal and 2 by Hibbert), a Most Improved Player award, 3 All-NBA selections, and 1 All-Defense selection. Not too bad of a return for a guy who averaged 8 points and 8 rebounds in his career. And who knows? Maybe, that 2nd-round pick in four years turns out to make some All-Star appearances of his own.
