(This post is part of our series on tracking hedge fund portfolios. If you're unfamiliar with tracking investments they disclose via SEC filings, check out our series preface on hedge fund 13F filings.)
Next up is value investor David Einhorn and his hedge fund Greenlight Capital. As we learned in Einhorn's recent investor letter, Greenlight Capital has returned 22% annualized since inception, a truly solid track record. Greenlight's emphasis is typically on spin-offs, mergers, and other value unlocking events. For 2009, Greenlight's various hedge funds were up 36.9%, 33.7%, and 30.6% as mentioned in our 2009 hedge fund performance numbers post.
The positions listed below were Greenlight's long equity, note, and options holdings as of December 31st, 2009 as filed with the SEC. Note that we are only covering the major portfolio maneuvers. All holdings are common stock unless otherwise denoted.
Brand New Positions
Boston Scientific (BSX ~ we already knew about this position from Einhorn's letter)
CIT Group (CIT)
Ralcorp Holdings (RAH)
Becton Dickinson (BDX)
Energy Partners (EPL ~ this one was a very small position)
Increased Positions
Foster Wheeler (FWLT): Increased by 92.9%
Pfizer (PFE): Increased by 23.5%
URS Corp (URS): Increased by 4.81%
Automatic Data Processing (ADP): Increased by 3.2%
Reduced Positions
Barrick Gold (ABX): Reduced by 94.7%
Huntsman (HUN): Reduced by 89.66%
Sinclair Broadcast (SBGI): Reduced by 80.7%
Teradata (TDC): Reduced by 66.2%
Patterson UTI (PTEN): Reduced by 62.3%
MEMC Electronics (WFR): Reduced by 60%
Nike (NKE): Reduced by 53.9%
Endurance Specialty Holdings (ENH): Reduced by 29%
BJ Services (BJS): Reduced by 26.7%
Ticketmaster (TKTM): Reduced by 25.9%
Removed Positions (Sold out completely):
EchoStar (SATS)
Danaos (DAC)
Teekay (TK)
Anixter (AXE)
Belden (BDC)
Crosstex Energy (XTXI)
Novatel Wireless (NVTL)
Duke Realty (DRE)
Smithfield Foods (SFD)
Aircastle (AYR)
Colonial Propeerties (CLP)
General Cable (BGC)
Liberty Media (LINTA)
Oshkosh (OSK)
Amkor (AMKR)
AerCap (AER)
Wyeth (WYE)
Top 15 Holdings (by percentage of assets reported on 13F filing)
- Boston Scientific (BSX): 10.54%
- Pfizer (PFE): 9.65%
- Carefusion (CFN): 7.81%
- Cardinal Health (CAH): 7.57%
- CIT Group (CIT): 6.25%
- Travelers Companies (TRV): 3.81%
- Aspen Insurance (AHL): 3.78%
- Einstein Noah Restaurants (BAGL): 3.78%
- Microsoft (MSFT): 3.71%
- Everest Re (RE): 3.01%
- HealthNet (HNT): 2.92%
- McDermott (MDR): 2.81%
- MI Developments (MIM): 2.49%
As you can see, the theme of health plays prominently in Greenlight Capital's long U.S. equity portfolio. By far the largest activity out of Einhorn's fund in the fourth quarter was its brand new position in Boston Scientific. Greenlight also shows a new stake in CIT Group, but keep in mind that this is most likely a result of the debt to equity conversion. Not to mention, we already knew of these positions since Einhorn disclosed them in his recent investor letter. However, we did not quite know the size of Greenlight's BSX stake as it is now the hedge fund's top U.S. equity long holding. Pfizer comes in a close second, a position which Greenlight again added to in the fourth quarter.
Another notable increase was that Greenlight almost doubled its stake in Foster Wheeler, though the position is still sized smaller relative to the fund's overall portfolio. On the selling side, Greenlight was out in full force as it unloaded a ton of names and heavily reduced others such as Huntsman (HUN), Teradata (TDC), and Barrick Gold (ABX). Don't forget that Einhorn also has a large physical gold position that obviously doesn't show up in these filings, so that could partially explain the sale of that last position.
Keep in mind also that Greenlight also has numerous European equity positions that don't show up in a 13F filing and we know it has a large position in Vodafone Group (VOD) and we also detailed Greenlight's new position in F&C Asset Management. Assessing its entire portfolio, Greenlight's six largest disclosed long positions are Arkema (OTCPK:ARKAY), Boston Scientific, CIT Group, Ford Motor Company (F) debt, gold, and Vodafone Group.
If you wanted to better understand how Greenlight hypothesizes and researches its investment themes, we highly recommend checking out Einhorn's book Fooling Some of the People All of the Time: A Long Short Story. Typically, Greenlight approaches things by identifying mispricings in the markets and then proceeding from there. Greenlight's performance track record speaks volumes as to its success.
Assets from the holdings reported to the SEC via 13F filing were $2.79 billion this quarter compared to $2.66 billion last quarter. Remember that these filings are not representative of the hedge fund's entire base of assets under management. Therefore, the figures above represent the percentage of its reported 13F assets, not Greenlight's entire portfolio.
We'll be tracking 40+ prominent funds in our fourth quarter 2009 hedge fund portfolio tracking series. We've already covered Seth Klarman's Baupost Group, Mohnish Pabrai's Investment Fund and Carl Icahn's hedge fund Icahn Partners so check back daily for our updates.

Falmouth, the Cape's second-largest town, was settled in 1660. Much of Falmouth today is suburban, with a mix of old and new developments and a large year-round population. Many residents commute to other towns on the Cape, to southeastern Massachusetts, and even to Boston. The town has a quaint village center, with a typically old New England village green and a shop-lined Main Street. South of town center, Falmouth faces Nantucket Sound and has several often-crowded beaches popular with families. To the east, the Falmouth Heights neighborhood mixes inns, B&Bs, and private homes, nestled close together on residential streets leading to the sea. Bustling Grand Avenue, the main drag in Falmouth Heights, hugs the shore and the beach.
The village of Woods Hole, part of Falmouth, is home to several major scientific institutions, and is a departure point for ferries to Martha's Vineyard.

A 20" skirt is used when the mattress is at its highest setting and the child is newborn. As the child grows and you start to lower the mattress, the 20" skirt becomes too long and the 14" skirt is used. Some choose to purchase both the 20" and 14" skirt, but others decide to purchase only the 14" skirt and deal with a little shortness in the beginning.

NICE consults on draft recommendations for the pharmacological management of epilepsy
NICE is updating the pharmacological aspects of its clinical guideline on the management of epilepsy in adults and children in primary and secondary care. As part of this process, draft recommendations have been published on the NICE website today (5 August) for public consultation.
Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder characterised by recurring seizures. The condition is estimated to affect between 260,000 and 416,000 people in England and Wales. Two thirds of people with active epilepsy can effectively control their seizures with a class of medication known as anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs).
NICE is updating its pharmacological recommendations as there has been an increase in available AEDs since the original guideline was published in 2004.
Dr Fergus Macbeth, Director of the Centre for Clinical Practice at NICE said: "While epilepsy is a lifelong condition, most people are able to control their seizures effectively with medication and live a normal life. However, it can take some time to find the right type of anti-epileptic drug and dose suited to the individual, before a satisfactory outcome can be achieved.
"Since we published our original clinical guideline six years ago, the number of anti-epileptic drugs available in the UK has risen, which means healthcare professionals may not know whether these newer drugs bring any additional clinical benefits for their price, compared to what is already available.
"We are updating our clinical guideline on the diagnosis and management of this condition so that healthcare professionals can be sure that they are prescribing the most clinically and cost effective treatments and that they are doing so in the correct order. We welcome feedback from all third parties during this consultation period so that our final guideline can be of the greatest benefit to patients."
Any organisations wishing to submit comments on the draft guideline are invited to do so via the NICE website by 30 September 2010.
NICE then hopes to publish its final recommendations in March 2011.

One of the greatest frustrations for those living or working in the suburbs is the commute.
For some people it can add up to two hours a day, each way.
Studies indicate in the next three decades this problem could reach a tipping point.
FOX 32's Craig Wall reports on the issue of suburban survival, and how it depends on smarter approaches to transit.
For suburbs, this type of development, and solutions like the Shuttle Bug, can provide multiple benefits, including reducing the number of vehicles on roadways and with it pollution.
Also, it also makes good sense for employers and employees.
During rush hour, traffic on the expressways around Chicago often moves at a snail's pace due to heavy congestion.
A situation that poses a growing problem for suburbs that are trying to keep or attract young professionals.
"The total commute was usually around an hour and a half to two hours, depending on the traffic. But at the time I was also driving an SUV and the gas costs was really ridiculous," Commuter Michael Ou said.
Michael Ou currently does the reverse commute to Deerfield, but it still takes an hour and a half.
A recent transit study found that because of increasing congestion many of Deerfield's young professionals will choose to live and work closer to Chicago by 2040.
To help with commuting concerns, about 40 major employers around the Deerfield area provide a shuttle service to help employees avoid driving on busy arterials, like Lake-Cook Road, and instead take public transportation to work.
"The number one thing that it does, it allows them to attract and retain quality employees, employers are looking for quality employees, but many of the millennials live in the city, they have good job skills, but many of the jobs are out here in many cases," Executive Director of Transportation Management Association of Lake Cook, Bill Baltutis, said.
Chad Gates is among the many reverse commuters who rides the shuttle every day.
When asked if he would take the job without the shuttle service, Gates said,"I wouldn't have done this job, no, definitely not. I'd probably still be looking for something in the city, this made it super convenient."
Other suburban communities are looking for ways to reduce congestion and improve people's ability to get to and from work through a concept called Transit Oriented Development.
"It's not all about transit, it's about how we develop the rest of the region, what decisions do we make today about where to build the next housing, what decisions do we make about where to bring businesses," CEO of Center for Neighborhood Technology, Kathryn Tholin, said.
In Orland Park, a new apartment and shopping complex right next to the Metra station is a prime example of how suburbs are coordinating development and public transit.
"I actually came from downtown, I used to walk, and now I take the train and it's just really convenient," Commuter Sheri Fassl said. "Being able to get back down there without a car, at that point, was very important to me and if I would have moved somewhere else it would not have been as easy or possible at all"

We have been offering accommodation to guests since 1986 – a lifetime – and the hardest lesson we have had to learn is that it is simply not possible to please everyone all the time, or indeed have a fully functioning Dannah Farm perfect at all times on every occasion. Most of our wonderful guests know this and generously forgive our lapses! We really, genuinely, do try our very best to please and hopefully are able to give our guests a wonderful stay with memories to cherish.
Reviews are both terrific and terrifying at the same time! It's a heart stopping moment when we see a new review has been published – did they like us – were we helpful/friendly/in the middle of a domestic???? Then - having made the decision to put reviews on our own website – should we just put on the good ones – include the not so good – banish the awful?? The decision is taken – we will go for "the good, the bad and the ugly" and let our guests – past, present and future decide for themselves!!!!
We have decided not to reply to individual reviews, believing it could be perceived as confrontational, of course we read them all, and really do welcome your thoughts, taking notice of all the points you raise – good and bad! (For some of the issues which raise their head from time to time, e.g., charges for corkage an explanation can be found on our FAQ's page).
And finally, a heartfelt thank you to those who take the time and trouble to tell us what a lovely time they had, along with a genuine apology to those for whom the experience was not all they would have hoped for.
|Oct 02 2012
|What our guests have to say >>
The farm house looks nothing from the outside but the rooms are very homely, money has been spent on the bathrooms and fittings , but if you pay nearly £200.00 a night you need the ambience to justify this price.The breakfast as you would expect is excellent but i am afraid that we will not visit again.

General Description:
Major Findings:
• Most (74%) of the visitors wanted to know what the image is of. To a lesser degree, visitors were also interested in how the subject fits into the larger world, in the imaging technology that was used, and in the characteristics, or traits, of the sample (e.g. is it metallic?).
• Without any additional image information, visitors reported recognizing familiar objects in the image (63% of the visitors), and to a lesser extent talked about the shapes and patterns, the colors, and the instruments they think were used to create the image. We speculate that this tendency to look for the familiar may lead to misinterpretations particularly when a nanoscale sample superficially resembles a more familiar macroscale object.
• Most visitors (72%) guessed that the subject of the STM, AFM or SEM was in the micro or smaller scale. However, visitors were more likely to think that the quantum corral (the STM image) is on the macroscale as compared to the other images.
• Visitors used a number of clues to (mis)inform their size estimates of the subjects in these scientific images. Visitors based their guesses on: the accompanying size and scale information, the apparent similarity to a more familiar object, the possible instruments used to capture the image, and the shape and patterns they see.
• More (73%) visitors readily interpreted magnification (e.g. 20,000x) than size units such as nm (34%) or μm (10%).
• False color was assigned different meanings, the most common (34%) being temperature, even though color was never intended to denote temperature in any of the images.
• Most (73%) visitors reported never having seen images similar to the ones we showed them in this study, further underscoring the need for interpretative supports.

PORTLAND – For 13 years, Longfellow Books in Monument Square has been fiercely loyal to Maine's community of readers and writers.
Chris Bowe, co-owner of Longfellow Books in Portland, says that each of the 30,000 books in the store will have to be looked at to see which have suffered water damage after a pipe burst in the bookstore over the weekend.

On Monday, that community began plotting ways to return the favor.
Maine writers offered help, support and sympathy to the independent bookstore, where as many as half of the 30,000 titles were damaged when this weekend's blizzard pushed in a second-story window and caused pipes to freeze and burst overhead.
"More than any other bookstore, they are involved in our lives," said Sibyl Masquilier, a writer from Cape Elizabeth. "They know the authors, they know their families, they know where they live and how they live. They take such an interest in our community. This is our chance for our community to reciprocate."
Since Saturday's flood, Joshua Bodwell, executive director of the Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance, has fielded dozens of emails, phone calls and Facebook queries from alliance members across Maine.
"Everybody is asking what they can do," he said. "At this point, I think the best thing to do to help is to do what your instinct tells you to do: Go there and buy books."
Loyalty is an important commodity for independent booksellers. As readers download more books and use the national retail giants to buy online, Longfellow Books maintains its niche by responding to readers and writers and putting community first, said Oren Teicher, chief executive officer of the New York-based American Booksellers Association.
"The folks at Longfellow Books are working really hard. They have to, in order to be able to hang in there," Teicher said. "They have to be real smart entrepreneurs and they have to be highly visible in their community, and Longfellow is, on both counts."
He said independent booksellers fight the misperception that they are losing an economic battle against giant retailers. Nationally, independent booksellers reported an 8 percent increase in sales last year compared with 2011, and Teicher said membership in the American Booksellers Association is growing.
"A store like Longfellow is aggressively involved in the community," he said. "It offers a lot of events and a high level of customer service. Mostly, they know a lot about books. That's what distinguishes them."
And that's why so many people have rallied around the store in the past 48 hours, Bodwell said. He noted that Longfellow hosts readings by local authors regularly, and promotes local titles with window displays and publicity events.
The store is active in the Buy Local campaign and responds to the community by paying attention to what people want to read and are willing to buy. In return, consumers offer their loyalty, he said.
"They are the complete personification of the importance of independent bookstores," Bodwell said, comparing Longfellow Books to a public library. "If you want a book, that's the place to go to get it."
Chris Bowe, a co-owner of the bookstore, renewed his pledge Monday to reopen in time for a community fundraiser Thursday night.
Bowe, who vows to go unshaven until the store reopens, said his staff of 10 will work full shifts Tuesday, removing damaged books from the shelves.
Many of the waterlogged books are beyond saving, but a large portion sustained only minor damage. Books that can be saved but not sold likely will be donated to libraries or other reading outlets, Bowe said. He has talked to his insurance company and is waiting to learn the best way to proceed.
Few writers have benefited more from Longfellow's community-first approach than Cynthia Thayer of Gouldsboro.
Thayer, author of "Strong for Potatoes," "A Certain Slant of Light" and "A Brief Lunacy," faced a personal crisis when she and her husband, a farmer, lost a barn and hundreds of livestock in a fire in May.

So far today I have avoided this story, because it didn't seem to have much to do with the hot stove. It was revealed today that Cardinals third baseman Troy Glaus had shoulder surgery that may keep him out until mid-April. John Mozeliak has plenty of internal third base candidates, but he did say, "We may also look at external options."

Let's face it: Breakups are about as much fun as food poisoning and they can cause even the most cool, collected chick to curl into a fetal position on the floor for days. If you've recently gone from coupledom to splitsville, read on. Cosmo sat down with Greg Behrendt (He's Just Not That into You) and his coauthor wife, Amiira Ruotola-Behrendt, to discuss their latest bestseller, It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken: The Smart Girl's Breakup Buddy.
Here, we grilled the love gurus on the whole getting-over-him business and how to come out with your sanity and dignity intact.
In your book, you suggest having no contact with your ex for 60 days and enlisting a pal to make sure you don't drink 'n dial after a breakup. But is it really so bad to call him on day 58, just to see how he's doing?
Put that phone down and don't backtrack! You've had 58 days of being strong and independent the mess is behind you. Ask yourself: Is it really worth going back? In your gut, you'll know the answer. Make it your mission to give yourself a purpose other than pining for your ex. See a movie, read a book, take a walk (not down his block!) whatever takes your mind off of him.
How do you know that your first post-breakup relationship isn't just a rebound?
The fact is, it probably is a rebound relationship. But there's nothing wrong with that. Just be candid with the guy. When you say to Mr. Rebound, "I'm totally getting over this breakup right now, and this is your lucky day because I just want to have fun," he'll probably be psyched. How great to get to be the "have-fun-guy" instead of the dude you're trying to pick out china patterns with. For some men, that's like winning the lottery!
What if you broke up with someone, but realize maybe you were perfect together after all. Should you call him and try to get back together?
If you find yourself feeling that way, it's probably a case of what we call "dumper's remorse." Starting over can be tough, so often we end up second-guessing decisions and rewriting the relationship. We forget the reason we broke up. Avoid contact and wait for your common sense to return.

A Documentary History of Reconstruction
John David Smith - Author
This anthology of primary documents traces Reconstruction in the aftermath of the Civil War, chronicling the way Americans—Northern, Southern, black, and white—responded to the changes unleashed by the surrender at Appomattox and the end of slavery.
Showcasing an impressive collection of original documents, including government publications, newspaper articles, speeches, pamphlets, and personal letters, this book captures the voices of a broad range of Americans, including Civil War veterans, former slaveholders, Northerners living in the South, and African-American men and women who lived through one of the most trying, complex, and misunderstood periods of American history.

Sorry, missed the whole taking their citizenship before they secede part....that's just stupid and won't happen.
It's been a long day.

Hmmm... the way I read the exec order... it was simple: If you sign a petition, you loose your citizenship... And after all, it IS an exec order... supposedly those are above the law.
So if one is gonna take the worst possible interpretation... then anyone who signs a petition is screwed. OTOH: the politics of that move would be drawing a line in the sand which would be severely tested by many a TRUE American. I seriously doubt even the 'super-majority' in California could stand up to that test.
Student is probably right... both sides of this discussion are really just smoke: That is; No state will succeed, and the current administration will not do anything punitive to the folks who try.
Now OTOH: If a state were to secceed forcefully... well that might be a different story. Lets cross that bridge when we get close enough to see it.
Now for GA's opinion: The SOUTH SHALL RISE AGAIN... <grin>
And with that little tidbit of folklore... it is time for some sleep. There is this thing called work, and there is some to do the rest of this week...

Quality work at a fair price with excellent customer service.
So if I sign the petition I get a free trip out of the country? Where do I sign.?
Executive Orders are not above the law, the Executive Order is a means by which the President can "get things done" without going through the hassle of consulting Congress. Whatever the EO is, it can be challenged in court
One thing we should keep in mind: A state legislature needs to approve any Secession from the Union.
"Arguing with liberals...it's like playing chess with a pigeon; no matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, crap on the board and strut around like it's victorious." -- Anonymous
The petition to strip someone of citizenship is stupid and would be ignored as it should. In terms of a state actually leaving the U.S., well that is more a pipe dream than anything else. With us and Quebec wanting to leave every once in a while, I can say one thing.
You think divorce can be messy? Hah!

I heard there is a serious petition to have NYC become the 51st State, that would be awesome.
I liked Rochester when I went to visit on my Harris Corp interview a few years ago. I wish I would have taken the job, and I made a mistake not to move there.
Only 2 things maybe not so good:
1. The brutal 10% state income tax in addition to high sales tax
2. cold in the winter
With the division of people in this country increasing all the time, I see nothing wrong with states seceding from a communist future to preserve our constitutional rights.
All the liberals can live under dictators in their states.
The moderates can have their soil as well.
And patriots can live in their states under morality and true constitutional law.
So lets divide this country up! ...we can still be neighbors if that makes you happy.

the taxes are a huge problem. Rochester also has the highest rate of students that DO NOT graduate. We have one of the highest property taxes in the country. We have one of the highest poverty rates in NY. AND we get Lake effect snow.
70 years ago this was the place to be, HQ for Eastman Kodak, Xerox, Bausch & Lomb, Delco and Rochester Products to (they made an awesome 4 bbl carburetor for GM)
Small business is being hammered by regulations on a daily basis. Workmans Comp ins. is the highest in the country. Dept of Labor will come right out and tell you, "as a small business owner you have no rights, if a former employee files a complaint, just pay it or we'll tie you up in court for so long you'll go bankrupt" (thats actually what a DOL guy told my wife)
But the place has come unglued. It's decaying faster than most want to believe.
You made the right choice NOT to move here <sad to say>
Looky here!
Isn't it great we have such a uniting president.
It seems more nad more states are getting on the bandwagon. If you go back and look at the electoral map most of the states that want out are red states in the middle of the country. If they all left it split the blue states. Pretty hard to hold a country together when they are physically divided, unlike the red states in the center of the country that would be all together. Also back to the map in several of the swing states that went blue it was only the large cities that swung the vote the majority of the state geographicly was red so it wouldn't take much to bring them along. That doesn't leave alot left for Bronco to run does it.
Look at who feeds those blue states. IMO, the doers could starve the takers and have a coastal cleansing of America. No more honey for the takers and no more blues for the givers.

Walking the halls at FOSDEM 2007
On February 24 and 25, around 4,000 geeks gathered in Brussels, Belgium, for the Free and Open source Software Developers European Meeting (FOSDEM).
The FOSDEM conference has a unique position in the European FLOSS world. Geeks from across Europe – and further away – gather for a few days of talking, working on free software technologies, and having a good time (quite often fueled by the beer). FOSDEM is different from most other conferences. You will not find "booths with suits," commercial talks, or business lounges. You will find a few buildings full of bright people, a great conference program, and a good opportunity to talk to others who are interested in free software. The conference is free; thus, your only expenses are for travel, lodging, and food. This formula clearly works because the number of visitors has increased steadily since the first FOSDEM (then OSDEM) in 2001.

Good product with one small disappointment
I like Bosca wallets and this product is no exception. So far this case appears well constructed and should function just fine. After putting in some cards, I did noticed a small bulge when closed. Ended up being a tag that I had to cut out. I do have to say that I was disappointed to see the tag read 'made in China'.
December 17, 2013
Excellent quality
I actually purchased this as a gift but my ordering experience was superb; I ordered the case on Monday morning and received it on Tuesday afternoon. I have carried and used Bosca products for many years. They only get more beautiful as they age.

Perfection in aesthetics and function.
I use this card case for my everyday wallet. It's a perfect size for the pocket, is lightweight, refined, and attractive. It replaces a similar model which I wore out after many years. The transaction was easy, delivery fast, and the product even nicer than my old one. A good value and a fully satisfying acquisition. A classic indeed.

Great Calling Card Case!
I had originally wanted a case with just one space for cards to float more freely. While it's still true this would give me more space, I love how securely and pristinely this case maintains my cards. The divisions offer an opportunity to divide my cards and those I receive from other people. Perhaps best, it is beautiful and it matches all my other Old Leather Classic items. The only thing I wish for is a little leather bag (a purse but acceptable for a man) that I could collect my Old Leather Classic wallet, key book, change purse, money clip, and card case in.

California Governor Frank P. Merriman will be in attendance at the Governor's party to be held at Bucks Lake Lodge Friday night. The CNPA consists of 414 newspapers throughout California.
It is fun again at Paxton Lodge with dancing under the stars at the new dance pavilion--$1.00 a couple. Have dinner the French way by chef Marcel DeBolan. So tasty, so liberal, so cheap. Come for food, fun and refinement.
Sheriff W. C. Abernethy retained his position defeating E.L. Spellmeyer 2510 to 1682 votes. Robin Jeskey, incumbent supervisor, out polled three other contestants but will face Joe Crivello in a run off election in November. Gordon Purdy, incumbent supervisor, defeated Gus Anderson.
California Governor George Deukmajian gave Plumas County $75,000 in Rural Renaissance funds to foster economic development and business growth among California rural areas. The Chamber of Commerces of Chester, Indian Valley and Quincy each received $3,000. The Eastern Plumas Chamber of Commerce had not applied for the funds. More than half of the monies, a total of $45,500 will go to the Plumas Corporation. Other monies went to the Plumas County Chamber of Commerce--$12,000, $5,000 to the Regional Council of Rural Counties and $3,500 to the Plumas County Community Development Commission.

We had such a delightful stay at the Crystal Palace with Innkeepers Steve and Stacie - Crystal Palace is a hidden gem in the charming town of Bristol. We will definitely be back.

Stephen & Stacie Ayotte were fantastic, friendly, welcoming hosts. We stayed for 2 nights with the romantic package and I believe it was extremely under priced. What a beautiful B&B for an amazing deal. You can NOT beat the service and kindness you'll receive here. Would definitely recommend the Crystal Palace and hope to return there ASAP.
5 su gennaio 21, 2013
Very nice B&B. It was very clean and the innkeepers were very nice. If you want a big breakfast this is the place for you! Delicious and creative meals were served with nice conversation thrown in. If you love dogs, they will call them in so you can spend some time with them. If you are not a dog lover, they are so well behaved they will stay out of the way. I would stay here again, and the town and location was very nice.

We stayed recently at the Crystal Palace for our Wedding Anniversary. Even though we arrived far later than expected, (due to unexpected circumstances) Stacie greeted us at the door and welcomed us warmly. She could see we were tired so she took us right up to our room, after explaining a few things about breakfast etc. Our room was cozy and decorated in the victorian style. It felt like we had stepped back in time! We were very comfortable. The next morning was one of the best highlights of our day. Stacie's dining room is THE place to eat breakfast in Northern VT! A gourmet 3 course breakfast is served with all of the Victorian era trappings from lace, to crystal, to sterling serving pieces. Her Eggs Benedict were to die for! Stacie's breakfasts are true works of art for the eyes as well as the palate. It was nice chatting with her in the mornings while she served our scrumptious breakfasts, and it is obvious that she wants you to feel well cared for and every details is well taken care of. We will definitely go back again!

We went for the romantic package weekend and we were blown away at the attention and service our hosts gave us. We felt truly welcome. The breakfasts were nothing short of a gourmet restaurant. I would recommend this B&B (and I will!) to all my friends! As Arnold Schwarzenegger said in "The Terminator"....'I'll be back" ~ Ray & Pat

If you want something special, this place has it all. Beauty, superior attention to detail, warm hosts, and 5-star food. A must stay if you're in Vermont! Highly recommend!

A fantastic place to get away. Our love -- caution was complete with romantic details and we enjoyed our stay immensely!

Sometimes you see a picture on a website that looks amazing and beautiful, but then you see it in person and it looks nothing like the picture you saw on the website! Well, fortunately, that was NOT the case regarding this B&B. The pics of the building look GREAT on the site, but in person, it looked even BETTER! Me and my wife stayed in the Bristol Suite and fell in love with everything about it. The room was spacious; the bed was comfy; and the claw tub was huge! In addition to a great room, we received AWESOME service from Stephen and Stacie (and their two gorgeous dogs). Stephen and Stacie were very friendly and welcoming, and were great in educating us about the building, town, and surrounding attractions. In addition, they made GREAT BREAKFASTS! On top of all of that, the rates were VERY reasonable! During our next visit to Vermont, we will DEFINITELY be checking in at the Crystal Palace again! Thanks so much!! , Your new friends, Brian and Michelle (Orlando, FL)

Very well maintained historic house with lots of cool old stuff in it. Steve and Stacie are very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful hosts. Breakfasts were perhaps the best breakfasts I have ever eaten anywhere; 3 courses, delicious, classy, and with generous portions. Great hiking opportunities nearby. Highly recommended.

My husband and I wanted to take a spur-of-the-moment mini vacation to Vermont and so I hunted the internet for a last minute place. We lucked out and I not only found Crystal Palace but they even had a special rate, probably because it was off season. This b & b is lovely and is full of wonderful Victorian decor. Our hosts couldn't have been nicer. For dinner the night we arrived they directed us to a popular restaurant in town that we could walk to, and it was very nice. The next morning we had what I think is the best b & b breakfast we've ever had. It was perfectly prepared and served. Our room (suite) was Victorian, roomy and spotless. We'd definitely stay there again.

Charm, spacious and comfortable. A great spot to stay for Middlebury and Burlington adventures

The Crystal Palace Victorian B&B is beautiful!!! It was our favorite B&B on our New England Fall trip. The bedrooms are spacious & decorated beautifully with antiques. (The whole house is beautifully decorated with antiques.) Little extras like having magazines in the bedrooms to look at. Water bottles provided for you in the bedrooms. Sherry for an evening nightcap. An added plus was the water pressure in our claw foot bath/shower, it was amazing. The bars of soap even had the B&B's logo. The best part of this B&B are the innkeepers Stephen & Stacie. They are so very warm & friendly. They make you feel right at home. Stephen even made reservations for us for dinner at the Bobcat Restaurant without a hestitation. Stacie's breakfast was fabulous. If you are in the area, I would definitely recommend Crystal Palace Victorian B&B.

Everything about our stay was delightful. Our hosts were friendly and welcoming, the room and bath beautifully decorated and confortable. The breakfast was well presented, more than ample (we didn't need lunch)and delicious.

Steve & Stacey do a wonderful job. The house is effectively a Victoriana museum and the food and considerate service are great. I wish I'd met Caesar the dog before we were leaving; I'd have loved taking him for a walk. Hope to be back with my wife before too much longer. She'll freak over the decor. Absolutely the best B&B I've ever used.

I needed a place to stay for one night while my daughter visited Middlebury College. The charming town of Bristol was only a 15 minute drive from Middlebury, through beautiful farmlands and rolling hills. The Crystal Palace was a perfect place to stay and the innkeepers were gracious and accommodating without being "overly friendly". Breakfast was amazing, fresh fruit, a big pot of hot coffee, and eggs benedict with just-cut herbs from the garden and home grown tomatoes! Thanks, I'll be back for another visit...
3,6 su settembre 08, 2011
Stayed here for 2 nights. Very comfortable, very conveniently located close to downtown and major freeways. Nice house, good linens , clean etc, just what I expected for the $ I paid (not cheap). Excellent hot breakfast on one day; next day had to leave early and skipped breakfast which is served ONLY at 8.30 am. That's my only feedback; most people need to leave for a workday or to get somewhere by 8 or 8.30 and there's no time for the very nice 3 course breakfast served here. So may I suggest a more continental style breakfast, with coffee, juice, fruit, some pastries, maybe boiled eggs/meat so that guests can have a breakfast at 7.30 or 8 if they so wish?
Risposta del proprietario
As listed on our webpage our rates vary from $110 to $135 per night. We are aware of our B&B competitors in Bristol and our rates are among the lowest. In addition none of the other B&B's offer the amount of food, 3 course full hot breakfast, that we serve to our guests. We feel we are an excellent value. During the checkin process it is our policy to ask all of our guests if breakfast at 8:30 is acceptable. In addition we ask if there are any dietary concerns. We work with all guests who tell us they can not make the 8:30 breakfast time. If we can not reach an agreement on the time breakfast can be served then we discount the stay. As hosts we are up in the morning between 5 and 5:30 every day preparing for our guest to have a wonderful experience at breakfast. On that morning the coffee was ready by 6:30, fruit and juice was on the table by 7:30 and we were prepared to make the rest of the breakfast at 8:30 when the guest came down stairs and announced that they had to leave immediately. They did eat the fruit, drink the juice and had a cup of coffee to go. Had we known we could have made this guests stay even more pleasant by preparing breakfast sooner. Nothing was said to us ahead of time about needing or wanting breakfast any sooner then the 8:30 that we had agreed to on the first day. We understand that things can happen and to provide for that we have a table in the hallway of the main guests rooms with a note pad on it. Many of our guests will leave us a note about a change in plans. Since we have to walk by that table on our way to the kitchen we see them and act accordingly.

The house is stunning ! Lots of historical tidbits and beautiful victorian decor. The town is picture perfect Vermont. The Crystal Place is a great location to experience the smaller rural towns, or big city life in Burlington. Steve and Stacie are wonderful hosts, and the 3 course breakfast is icing on the cake!

WebISO Authentication in the SCS Web EnvironmentWebISO is a mechanism to provide authentication for web-based services. It allows you to use your SCS or Andrew Kerberos userid and password to verify your identity for web services such as webmail or LDAP lookup. When you first connect to a web service that uses WebISO authentication, you will be presented with a login screen. Once you enter your credentials, you will then be directed to the web service.
In addition, WebISO provides the convenience that your identity information is remembered so that you do not need to re-enter it to access other WebISO services (until you close your browser).
There are two different WebISO services that you will encounter in the SCS web environment: one run by CMU Computing Services and one run by SCS Computing Facilities. These are used by different web services, look somewhat different, and require somewhat different credentials. These two WebISO services are described next.
SCS Computing Facilities WebISOThe WebISO service (maintained by SCS Computing Facilities) is used primarily by the SCS Webmail server. When you connect to a web service protected by the SCS WebISO service, you will see the following login page:
The page clearly identifies itself as being from the SCS WebISO server, and has prompts for your User ID, Password and a selection for either your regular login instance password or /mail instance password.
If you are accessing SCS Webmail from an untrusted host (a Web kiosk, a cluster machine, or other public host, for example), it is highly recommended that you use your Kerberos /mail instance to log in to WebISO. Select the /mail radio button in the Instance field of the WebISO login page and type your /mail instance password into the Password field.
If you are accessing SCS Webmail from a trusted host (your desktop workstation, for example) you may log into WebISO with your standard Kerberos username and password.
Andrew (Computing Services) WebISO ServerThe Andrew WebISO service (maintained by Computing Services) is used by many other SCS services (Corvid LDAP lookup, Kerberos Instance management) and CMU/Andrew services (Oracle, MyAndrew, Andrew Webmail, etc).
The page shows the Carnegie Mellon title, identifying itself as being the Andrew WebISO service. You can also see the prompts for User ID, Password and a drop-down field for the authentication realm.
Since the Andrew WebISO service is used by many different organizations, you must be careful to use the correct authentication information. If, for example, you are connecting to the CMU Oracle service, it will require you to use your Andrew User ID and password. In this case, you should leave the "ANDREW.CMU.EDU" realm selected when you enter your User ID and password information.
If, on the other hand, you are connecting to a SCS service, such as the Mailman mailing list administrative page, the Corvid lookup page, or another SCS service, you should select "CS.CMU.EDU" from the realm dropdown box, and use your SCS User ID and password information.
Common ProblemsIf you have logged in through the Andrew WebISO service using one set of credentials (your Andrew User ID, for example) and try using another web service that needs a different set of credentials, your access may be denied or fail silently.
As an example, say that you need to access the campus Oracle web pages. This access requires your Andrew credentials, which you provide and then have access to the web service.
Later in the day, you decide to access the SCS Corvid Attributes Lookup web page. This page normally requires your SCS login credentials, but since you are already WebISO authenticated, you are not prompted to log in. Instead, when you try to use the web service to access your Corvid attributes, either the search fails, or you cannot access functions to change your attributes.
In this case, you must completely exit your web browser to clear all of your WebISO cached credentials. Then, when you try to access the SCS web service, you will be prompted to enter your identification and it will proceed correctly to the web service.

white_dune is a graphical VRML97/X3DV editor, simple NURBS/Superformula 3D modeller, animation tool, and VRML97/X3DV commandline compiler in development. VRML97 (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is the ISO standard for displaying 3D data over the Web via browser plugins ("HTML for realtime 3D"). X3DV is the direct successor of VRML97. VRML97 and X3DV have support for animation, real-time interaction, and multimedia (images, movies, and sounds). white_dune can read, create, and display VRML97/X3DV files and let the user change the scenegraph/fields. It also has support for stereoscopic view via "quadbuffer"-capable stereo visuals, and support for 3D input devices like a joystick, spaceball, or magnetic tracker.
cygbuild is a porting tool for making Cygwin net releases. It helps Cygwin source and binary package maintainers to configure, build, strip, produce diffs, and generate Cygwin specific files. To put it simply, it converts any freely available program or package into a complete Cygwin net release distribution.
bmake is a program designed to simplify the maintenance of other programs. Its input is a list of specifications as to the files upon which programs and other files depend. If no -f makefile makefile option is given, bmake will try to open 'makefile' and then 'Makefile' in order to find the specifications.
OMake is a build system and scripting language with a similar style and syntax to GNU make but with many additional features, including support for large projects spanning multiple directories, default configuration files simplifying the standard compilation tasks, fast, reliable, automated, scriptable dependency analysis using MD5 digests, built-in support for defining and running autoconfiguration tests, portability, and built-in functions that provide the most common features of programs like grep, sed, and awk. It also provides active filesystem monitoring that restarts builds automatically when source files are modified. A companion command interpreter that can be used interactively is included.
KJam is a very fast build tool. It is a make replacement, and uses a syntax similar to Jam, but is much more powerful than the original. It has built-in dependency scanning, per-target viewpathing, C-like control flow, and a built-in sh-like shell. It is optimized for multi-processor machines. It can accelerate software builds by launching build actions on a distributed peer to peer network of build servers. It is designed to support large projects with thousands of targets, or projects requiring building on many target architectures.
The d command runs a command in the background and redirects its output to a file. The output file is annotated with start and end time, the actual command used, cwd, host, etc. You can ask the d command to extract the last command from the output file and run it again, you can ask it to append to the file or not, and other goodies. It comes with handy little programs to look at the output, tail it, etc. It is sort of trivial, but has been streamlined over many years.
GODI provides an advanced programming environment for the Objective Caml (O'Caml) language. From INRIA (who created O'Caml) you can get the O'Caml compiler and runtime system, but this is usually not enough to develop applications. You also need libraries, and there are many developers providing them. But it is a lot of work to build and install them. GODI is a system that simplifies this task: It is a framework that automatically builds the O'Caml core system, and additionally installs a growing number of pre-packaged libraries. For a number of reasons, GODI is a source-code based system, and there are no precompiled libraries, but it makes it very simple for everybody to compile them.
Gnasher alleviates developers from having to execute maven builds with the "-o" option (offline) to avoid accessing external repositories' metadata files. The SHA1 hash files and the missing pom metadata files for dependencies are created if they are missing. The next time the build is run, external repositories are not accessed and the build runs faster.
Oink is a collaboration of backends for the Elsa C and C++ frontend. It aims to be industrial-strength for immediate utility in finding bugs, extensible for ease in adding backends, and composable for ease in combining existing ones. It computes expression-level and type-level data flow, and statement-level intra-procedural control flow (by delegating to Elsa).

"The primary purpose of the Digest of Education Statistics is to provide a compilation of statistical information covering the broad field of American education from prekindergarten through graduate school. The Digest includes a selection of data from many sources, both government and private, and draws especially on the results of surveys and activities carried out by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES). To qualify for inclusion in the Digest, material must be nationwide in scope and of current interest and value. The publication contains information on a variety of subjects in the field of education statistics, including the number of schools and colleges, teachers, enrollments, and graduates, in addition to educational attainment, finances, federal funds for education, libraries, and international education. Supplemental information on population trends, attitudes on education, education characteristics of the labor force, government finances, and economic trends provides background for evaluating education data." from publisher's web site
