	The Agonist: Economy Grows at 4.4 Percent Rate in First Quarter
		Although consumers and the federal government did their part to support the economy in the first quarter, the better reading on GDP for the period in large part reflected stronger investment by businesses to build up inventories, a good sign that companies are more confident about the economy's prospects.
		Although that was lower than the 2 percent pace first estimated, it still represented a pickup from the 1.2 percent growth rate in the previous quarter.
		While that was less brisk than first estimated and down from a 14.9 percent growth rate in the fourth quarter, it still represented a sizable advance.

		Businesses cut spending on equipment and software in the first quarter at an annual rate of 6.3 percent, a deeper reduction than previously estimated and a reversal from the fourth quarter's 6.2 percent growth rate.

	First Order Rate Law
		These are characterized by the property that their rate is proportional to the amount of reactant.
		A common way for a chemist to discover that a reaction follows first order kinetics is to plot the measured concentration versus the time on a semi-log plot.
		Reaction rate constants are usually temperature dependent; the rate of a reaction usually increases as the temperature rises.

		At the end of one half-life, 50% of the original atoms or molecules remain; at the end of two half-lives, 25% remain; at the end of three half-lives, 12.5% remain.

	Chemical Sciences: First-Order Rate Laws
		The first-order rate law is one of the most common forms of the rate law.
		The rate of change of concentration of M, the derivative of this curve, also decreases exponentially as shown.
		This occurs because the rate of change is calculated over an interval, so its value is assigned to the center of the interval (mean value) rather than to either end of the interval.

	Banks Could Be First Rate Casualty
		Financials and long-term interest rates often rise in anticipation of economic recovery, but some financial stocks may have reached the end of their rally, Merrill's note suggests.

		The theory is widely followed among investors in financial stocks, which are generally viewed as interest plays and often move inversely to the direction of rates.

	Should the FEC Regulate Political Blogging? \| Personal Democracy Forum
		So I expect that the FEC will propose only modest regulation, mostly to insure that, as under current law, campaigns and committees fully disclose amounts spent on political advertising to appear on websites.

		Hollywood is running scared these days, terrified of a growing grass-roots demand for censorship, sensitive to the charges that it deliberately markets violent junk to kids, and suddenly trying to enforce the old MPAA rating system in a kind of panic.
		And Paramount is said to be particularly scared of its "Along Came a Spider," which centers on the kidnapping of a preteen girl by a psycho.
		A sequel to 1997's "Kiss the Girls," but based on the first book in James Patterson's Alex Cross series, it again stars Morgan Freeman as a psychologist-detective playing a cat-and-mouse game with a enigmatic, challenging kidnapper (Michael Wincott).
