New York State Deficit May Widen by 22% as Bonuses Set to Fall
New York state's deficit may be 22 percent wider than estimated by the Budget Division because tax revenue, including from Wall Street bonuses, may be less than expected.
The division has forecast a 13 percent increase in taxable cash bonus payments to $39.7 billion, according to Erik Kriss, a spokesman. By contrast, Options Group, an industry consultant, estimates the annual payments will drop from a year earlier. Capital gains revenue also may fall short of estimates.
"The next administration will have to contend with a snowballing budget deficit that's growing fast and picking up speed," Dennis Tompkins, a spokesman for state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli, said Dec. 10 by e-mail. "Next year's deficit could total $11 billion or more."
Last week, Morgan Stanley told bankers and traders to expect 10 percent to 30 percent smaller payouts than for 2009, according to two people briefed on the matter. The compensation pool for bankers and traders at JPMorgan Chase & Co. fell 10 percent in this year's first nine months, while at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. the amount available was 18 percent lower, according to company reports last month.
At least $1 billion of the fiscal 2012 gap is a carryover from the current year's imbalance, Tompkins said. "Nothing has been done to address that deficit and it doesn't appear that the Legislature is going to take any action," he said.
Report in January
Tompkins declined to comment on Wall Street pay beyond what DiNapoli said last month. The comptroller plans to issue a report in January on securities-industry compensation, he said.
The decline in bonuses "is going to be street-wide," said Michael Karp, the chief executive officer of Options Group, a New York-based recruiting and compensation-consulting firm. His company estimates overall pay for investment-banking and trading employees at Wall Street firms will be down 22 percent to 28 percent from 2009.
The projected decline may occur as Wall Street's largest banks seek to cut costs and boost stock prices, even as they are set to close the second-biggest year for revenue, trailing only 2009, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The five largest U.S. firms by investment-banking and trading revenue are Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, Citigroup Inc., Morgan Stanley and Bank of America Corp., which owns Merrill Lynch.
Hard to Estimate
"I like bonuses," Robert Megna, the state budget director, said last month at an Albany hearing on next year's spending plan. He said it's difficult to estimate revenue at the end of the year because neither the amount of bonus payments nor capital gains is known. Both are subject to state income taxes at rates of as much as 8.97 percent.
Wall Street companies and workers accounted for about 15 percent of the state's tax revenue in the 2010 fiscal year, which ended March 31, down from 20 percent in years before the financial crisis, according to DiNapoli.
The state estimates the growth in bonuses will produce $400 million in income-tax revenue, Kriss said. He didn't immediately respond to messages left after normal business hours seeking comment about bonuses and the deficit.
Governor-elect Andrew Cuomo is required to present the Legislature with a balanced budget by Feb. 1, a month after taking office. The spending plan must cope with the loss of $5.4 billion of temporary economic-stimulus aid from federal sources, as well as a chronic imbalance between revenue and spending. Tax receipts are projected to grow 6.7 percent next year, or about half the rate of spending under current mandates.
Projected Spending
After deferred spending in past years, school aid would increase $2.9 billion, or 14.6 percent, next year, according to budget documents. Spending on Medicaid, the health-care program for the indigent, would rise $5.7 billion, or 48 percent, according to projections for operating expenses.
The state also may collect less than forecast in capital- gains taxes, DiNapoli has said in a report.
"There will be additional risks" to the state revenue forecast if Congress extends the current 15 percent U.S. capital-gains rate, he said. Congress is debating a plan to prevent taxes from rising next year. Current law calls for the federal levy to jump to 20 percent on Jan. 1.
New York has estimated $200 million to $225 million in additional revenue from investors accelerating sales to take advantage of this year's federal capital-gains rate, according to Kriss. The Budget Division has projected a surge in capital gains, to $57.7 billion in 2010 from $36.4 billion in 2009.
Extension Proposal
If lawmakers in Washington pass an extension of unemployment benefits and a 2 percentage-point cut in employees' Social Security taxes, also in the plan now being debated, state revenue may increase because of increased retail sales, taxed at 4 percent, and from faster economic growth.
The tax accord may raise the nation's gross domestic product next year by as much as half a percentage point to about 3.1 percent, said Michael Feroli, chief U.S. economist at JPMorgan in New York. Tom Porcelli, a senior economist at RBC Capital Markets Corp. in New York, is increasing his growth forecast for 2011 by one point, also to 3.1 percent, because of the proposed tax bill.

Currently, I am planning my wedding for next year in September. I really wanted to use the colors blue, green and still choosing between a yellor or a cream. My wedding will be in fall, but I think these colors are too summer. Any idea of changing shades to make it more fallish?

Have you considered going for a navy blue and a green? Navy blue is more fitting for the season. Or perhaps instead of yellow you could use a antique gold.

Unser Aufenthalt bei Angela und ihrer Familie war wirklich sehr angenehm. Alles war sehr gepflegt und auch die Lage der Unterkunft hat uns mehr als überzeugt!
Wir haben sehr hilfsbereite und freundliche Gastgeber vorgefunden und können einen Besuch in Ottawa - vor allem im Winter (!) - nur empfehlen.
Thank you Angela for the great days in beautiful Ottawa. Hope we'll meet again :)
Angela is very friendly and warm-hearted as well as her whole familiy which made our stay in the Glebe House a really fun one. We borrowed the bikes and went to explore Downtown Ottawa which is really lovely. The house is very spacious but cosy and there also is the possibility of parking a car.
It was a very lovely stay of my 16 years-old daughter and me in Ottawa and we regret that we couldn't stay longer. It'a a very big and comfortable house with a nice garden, the room was also lovely and clean, but the most importing were the very kind hosts. Using the bicycles, we felt like at home, happy to get a lot of good tips to discover the lovely capital from Canada. Thanks a lo, we can recommend it to any curious person who likes to travel and don't like te feel so anonym like in a motel or a hotel.

Hi. I've found a few posts here in the forum for listing the most popular (by hits, or hits+comments+etc), and a few plugins too, but all of them are about only showing a list of the titles of the most popular posts in different ways. I want the same thing, but with excerpts!.
The one I currently like the most is Alex King's Popularity Contest, which doesn't support the excerpt-thing either. Any ideas? Anyone know of a plugin or a way to somehow hack any available plugin to do what I want?
Thanks, Jacob

Tissue Viability Guidelines improve quality, patient safety and reduce costs
Written by Judy Elliott October 08, 2009 Hits: 4410
|0.0 (0)
Area Classification
Acute / Hospital Care
Briefly describe what it is
Safe, effective wound prevention and management is not only fundamental to high quality patient care but is inextricably linked to a number of health outcomes. East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust implemented revised tissue viability guidelines and wound dressings/skin care formulary. This was undertaken in conjunction with a multidisciplinary education programme. A wound audit (excluding acute surgical wounds) was undertaken at the bedside in February 2008 prior to the intervention and one year later in February 2009. These results were compared to assess the subsequent impact of the changes.
Were there any key things that you had to do to make it happen?
A range of measures were undertaken focused on collaborative working, education and practice development. A tissue viability multidisciplinary foundation course was regularly presented from 2006. Project work reviewed evidence, products and submitted proposal for local approval. The project was launched Trust wide to link clinicians April 2009.
Describe (and provide evidence) of the impact on quality of care
Significant improvements were observed in best practice and patient experience. In 2008 42% of patients were considered to be receiving most appropriate wound care. This had improved to 65.7% in 2009, an increase of 23.7%. Prevalence of wound infection had reduced from 18% in 2008 to under 9% in 2009.
Describe (and provide evidence) of the impact on patient (or staff) experience
Staff are demonstrating improved confidence and empowerment in their decision making regarding wound management. The tissue viability course is popular and often oversubscribed. There is improved communication with all staff groups throughout the Trust and staff appear enthusiastic at taking best practice recommendations forward in their clinical areas.
Describe (and provide evidence) of the impact on reducing cost
In 2008, data analysis associated wound infection with longer length of hospital stay and a mean increased cost of £3,916.94 per patient. Using this calculation, in 2009, the reduced wound infection prevalence provides a cost saving of £58,754.10.

German, U.K., Swedish Left Calls for G20 Deal, Handelsblatt Says
German, U.K. and Swedish Socialist and Labour Party leaders called on the Group of 20, meeting in Cannes, to come up with a global plan for growth and stronger political leadership during the debt crisis, Handelsblatt reported in its online edition.
Sigmar Gabriel, the chairman of Germany's Social Democratic Party; Ed Miliband, the leader of the U.K.'s Labour Party, and Hakan Juholt, the chairman of the Swedish Social Democratic Party, suggested a "new deal" for economic growth, according to the newspaper.
They also said G20 leaders should commit to the introduction of a financial transactions tax for all major financial centers and an agreement to separate consumer and investment banking, Handelsblatt reported.

Joe's Jeans
Monet Mazur in Double Denim
Monet Mazur was snapped while she was out running some errands in West Hollywood, California. She picked up a package from Zappos and also browsed through the new fashion magazines at a local newsstand.
Monet wore a double denim outfit which consisted of a medium blue denim shirt with a pair of black skinny Joe's Jeans, black flats and a fluffy vest. So many celebs are being spotted in Joe's Jeans recently. Have any of you tried out their 55 colours yet? I think they have some amazing shades in their collection! Buy Joe's Jeans online here.

Beyonce in Joe's Jeans
Beyonce was caught leaving her office in New York City. She wore a pair of Joe's Skinny Jeans in Jet Black. These seem to be her new favorite black jeans. I like that Beyonce is representing Joe's. They rarely get any sightings. I think they have some great styles and washes. It's good to see them out more.
I like that Beyonce does not compromise her style during her pregnancy. She still gives it to us when she is caught out. I have yet to see her looking slumpy. One thing that I am surprised about not seeing her in are a pair of leather pants.There are still a few months left. Maybe she will pull those out to be her last look before giving birth? You can click here to purchase these jeans at Joe'sJeans for $158.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Joe's Jeans
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was spotted at Heathrow Airport arriving back in London from Los Angeles. She wore a pair of Joe's Skinny jeans in Jet Black. If you cover her head in this photo she can really pass off as Kate Moss. The all black and the Rag & Bone ankle boots just screams Kate.
It has been going around that Rosie will not be walking the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show This year. I wonder if this is true? She is one of the main angels. This will probably be the first time when an angel is not walking due to a pregnancy and we all know they all had children the past couple of years. Are you guys saddened about, what her fellow angels call "The Bomb," not walking this year?

Amanda Seyfried in Joe's Jeans
Amanda Seyfried looks stunning at the photo call for her upcoming film, In Time. Amanda wore a pair of Joe's Jeans skinny jeans in firey red, which is part of the Fifty Five colors collection by the brand. I love that the collection has so many different colors and shades, most of them are more unique than the shades offered by other brands.
Have you seen previews for Amanda's newest film, In Time? I think she and co-star, Justin Timberlake, make a good onscreen couple and it seems like quite a different role for Justin.

FanDuel MLB Plays for Friday, April 18
It's Friday, meaning the MLB is out in full force with a great evening slate of 14 games, starting at 7:05 ET. Don't get me wrong, MLB day games during the week are fun and all, but it really makes for better daily fantasy contests when all/most of the games are played at night. Not only are the prize pools usually bigger, but there is less overlap in choosing the same players as well. What I'm saying is, "get in while the getting is good"…and you can take that advice by checking out the following guaranteed FanDuel tournaments for tonight:
- DFBC Qualifier – 1st place = DFBC Finals Ticket + Trip to Las Vegas — $10 entry
- MLB Monster — $125,000 prize pool — $20,000 1st place – $200 entry
- MLB Strikeout — $60,000 prize pool — $8,000 1st place — $25 entry
- MLB Line Drive – $15,0000 prize pool — $2,000 1st place — $10 entry
- KOTD Satellites for every entry level: $2, $5, $10, $25, $50
The ensuing picks should help you construct a winning lineup for this evening. I wrote up some of my favorite players from each position, along with a few "quick hitters" that didn't quite make my top plays list, but I still thought they were worth a mention. Enjoy, and best of luck in all your fantasy baseball contests!
Sonny Gray (OAK) $8,000: Gray has been fantastic in his first three starts of the 2014 campaign, and tonight he gets a home matchup against the strikeout-happy Astros. After starting the season surprisingly strong, the Houston bats have regressed back to a level similar to last year's league-worst club. They have scored two runs or less in majority of their games, leading to a dead last ranking in runs scored and batting average (.188). Needless to say, this is a great spot for Gray to keep his hotstreak alive.
Jason Vargas (KC) $5,500: I'm not sure which is more surprising, the fact that Vargas has a 1.64 ERA in three starts, or Minnesota's offensive surge to begin the season, ranking them second overall in total runs scored. Something's gotta give on Friday night, as Vargas will try to slow down a Twins team averaging 6 runs per game in their past two series. I really like Vargas' chances tonight, as he pitched a solid game against Minnesota last week (7 IP, 2 ER, 4 K). Run support may be a bit of an issue, but the Royals are favored to win this evening, which helps alleviate some concerns on that front.
Evan Gattis (ATL) $3,400: Gattis has been absolutely raking it in lately, going 9/13 with 3 HR and 5 RBI in his last three games. After receiving the day off last night, Gattis will be in a great spot to keep the momentum going against the left-hander Jonathan Niese, which sets up as a nice R/L matchup for him to exploit.
Prince Fielder (TEX) $3,900: Fielder finally belted his first homerun of the season last series vs Seattle, and he's in a position to get another one against Chicago's shaky right-hander, Felipe Paulino. Paulino has gotten hit extremely hard in three starts this year, and he may have a tough time "righting the ship" against a dangerous Rangers lineup featuring Fielder in the cleanup spot.
Quick Hitter — Ryan Howard (PHI) $3,400: Great power, facing a right-handed pitcher, at Colorado's Coors Field…another 1B with substantial HR potential tonight.
Chase Utley (PHI) $4,400: If you are in a position to spend at second base, Utley is your guy today. He's playing in the projected highest scoring game of the day in Colorado's hitter-friendly environment. It is tempting to take multiple Philly bats tonight, but Utley is probably the most reliable of the bunch.
Quick Hitter – Scooter Gennett (MIL) $2,500: If you find Utley's cost prohibitive, Gennett is a cheap "platoon" guy who will likely give you positive numbers for this minimal price.
David Wright (NYM) $3,600: The "price is Wright" for David, as he started to finally gain some momentum in his last series at Arizona. He has a nice matchup against the often generous pitching of Aaron Harang, who Wright has abused throughout his career.
Xander Bogaerts (BOS) $2,900: He's swinging a hot stick right now, and his price tag has yet to account for his latest surge. With Bogaerts you get a little bit of everything: potential for contact, stolen bases, and runs within a high-octane Boston offense.
Carlos Gonzalez (COL) $4,700: Home matchup, in Coors field, vs a subpar right-handed pitcher…sign me up! CarGo is an extremely enticing premium outfield option tonight, and if you are spending at the position, I think he's the first name you need to consider. The only downside is Philadelphia pitcher, Pettibone, has the tendency to induce ground-balls and line-drives, which may limit some power potential. Regardless, the Rockies should hit him hard tonight with CarGo as the leading candidate to inflict the most damage.
Matt Kemp (LAD) $4,100: This is a terrific matchup for the Dodgers' right-handed bats (including Puig, Ramirez, Uribe) with the handedness advantage over Arizona's shaky pitcher, Wade Miley. Kemp is my favorite pick to seize this opportunity, as he is the healthiest of the Dodger sluggers and swinging the bat relatively well at the moment.
Charlie Blackmon (COL) $3,500: As I mentioned in the CarGo write-up, I'm expecting the Rockies to jump all over Pettibone tonight, making Blackmon a solid mid-range pick as Colorado's leadoff man. Blackmon flies under the radar in the fantasy baseball world, as he's a "platoon" guy who generally only plays when a righty is on the mound. However, it's hard to ignore his hot start to the season (.411 avg), and the matchup potential suggest another solid line this evening.
Quick Hitter — Mitch Moreland (TEX) $2,400: Take what I said about Prince Fielder and apply it to Moreland, who offers plenty of power upside for this minimal price.

It's no secret, but I'm not a basketball fan. I'm not sure what it is, maybe it's the constant back and forthing, I'm not sure ... Come to think of it, that's probably the same reason why I don't like tennis ... either way, it's still a huge sport, especially in the Far East and the North America, which is no surprise why there are 3 basketball titles a year. Up for review this time, the second one. Does it slam dunk or is it out of bounds? (lame link in, I know, but did I tell you how much I hated basketball?).

failure to thrive; slowed development; unexplained fevers; and progressive muscle weakness, hearing loss and vision loss. People affected by the late-onset forms may not develop symptoms until later in childhood, early adolescence or even into adulthood. Signs and symptoms of these forms are extremely variable but may include muscle weakness and rigidity; walking difficulties; vision loss; intellectual regression; and/or seizures. Krabbe disease is caused by changes (mutations) in the GALC gene and is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Treatment is generally based on the signs and symptoms present in each person; however, preliminary studies suggest that it may be beneficial to use hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (i.e. umbilical cord blood stem cells) as a treatment for patients in the early stages of infantile Krabbe disease and older people with mild symptoms.[1][2][3]Krabbe disease is an inherited condition that affects the nervous system. The signs and symptoms of the condition and the disease severity differ by type. Babies affected by early-onset (infantile) Krabbe disease, the most common and severe form of the condition, typically develop features in the first six months of life. Symptoms of infantile Krabbe disease may include irritability;

I'm in the process off migrating a legacy application that has been running under Windows XP to Windows 7. This app pulls updates and setup installers for child components. These are run under the user's non-admin account. This of course works fine in XP but without admin rights in Windows 7 the app cannot run the installers (unfortunately this architecture is a requirement for the immediate term).
My question is how can I allow the users to run the installers? As this is a corporate environment giving these users admin rights is out of the question. They are however a very specific set of custom applications so a broad allow any installer is not needed (and probably wouldn't be allowed). It's my understanding that I can allow rights for specific directories and/or applications but I've had trouble finding out exactly how to do this. Another option I've been looking at is changing the code to run the setup under elevated permissions but that would require me to have login credentials stored somewhere for the admin account. I've been leaning to the first but would appreciate any thoughts on the matter someone might have.

Next tie 2016
Latvia stay in Zone Group II for a second consecutive year in 2016.
Last tie 17-19 July 2015
Latvia claimed a 3-2 victory over Madagascar to retain their Group II status. The scores were tied after the first day of play, before Mikelis Libietis and Martins Podzus comfortably won the doubles rubber in straight sets to put the hosts ahead. The fourth rubber turned into a dramatic affair and Podzus recovered from being two sets to one down, to thrillingly win in five and secure Latvia's survival.
Latvia's best Davis Cup performances have been reaching Europe/Africa Zone Group I, which it achieved in 2008, 2010 and 2014. Until 1992, Latvian players represented USSR.

"First in, last out ... Last in, first out"
I learned a while back how the expression "first in, last out and last in, first out" describes how the loss of memory works in patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
I never knew how this occurred, just that it did occur with persons suffering from Alzheimer's disease and other dementias.
By Carole B. Larkin
Alzheimer's Reading Room
After attending a lecture given by one of Dallas' most knowledgeable geriatric psychiatrists and I finally found out -- How and Why.
It turns out we form memories in a two step process.
The first step is done by the hippocampus portion of the brain.
When we experience something or learn something the hippocampus takes it in and registers it. Then the hippocampus sends it to other portions of the brain to be stored.
We retrieve the memory from the other portions of the brain when we remember something.

Research tells us that the hippocampus is one of the earliest portions of the brain damaged by Alzheimer's disease. I could never figure out why the doctors made such a big deal of that, but now I know.
When the hippocampus is damaged or dying it never registers the event or the knowledge. It's doesn't recognize the event, and acts the same as if the event never happened. It never sends the message to the other parts of the brain to store the event.
You can't retrieve what was never stored can you?
Before the hippocampus is damaged it can register events and send them to storage, so those events are there to be retrieved.
Ever wonder why mom has no idea that she had breakfast, but knows the color of the dress she wore at Easter 40 years ago? Because the old memory was stored, while the newest memory is no longer stored because the hippocampus is no longer doing its job.
It actually makes sense that mom repeats herself over and over, because her brain never registered the fact that she already asked the question or told the story before.
Biologically, the brain cannot do its job because the hippocampus is damaged.
You cannot teach mom to not repeat herself because the hippocampus cannot register the teaching or send it to the storage units of the brain -- this is caused by damage to the hippocampus.
Do yourself a favor -- think about this when an Alzheimer's patient keeps asking the same question over and over, or engages in behaviors like insisting you did not call this morning.
Recognizing why this is happening might help you overcome feelings of anger and frustration.

The Otay Mesa Community Plan update was unanimously approved Tuesday by the San Diego City Council, with District 2 vacant after Kevin Faulconer's transition to mayor, and District 4's Myrtle Cole absent.
Councilmember David Alvarez made a motion to approve the plan as presented, save for changing the land use designation of the Torrey Pines Bank site to heavy commercial use to address traffic and transit concerns.
The plan, 13 years in the making, focuses on increased industrial and residential uses. It calls for two new village centers, adding over 10,000 residential units, transit centers and consequential mixed-use retail, and creates two new land-use zones: international business and trade, and heavy industrial.
Theresa Millette, senior planner in the Planning and Neighborhood Restoration Department working on the plan, said the change in land use is 4 percent of the area's 9,300 total acres, most of which are undeveloped.
As for funding, Frank January of the Facilitates Financing Department said the plan requires $1 billion in infrastructure investment, with most of it for transportation projects, parks, police, fire and library needs. Facilities Benefit Assessment and Development Impact Fees will cover $669 million of the total.
One of the sticking points surrounded the proposed Southbound Truck Route Project, which representatives from adjacent properties said would cause at least one business to close.
San Diego Planning Director Bill Fulton stressed that the council wasn't voting on any specific plan, and city planning officials will continue to work with residents and business owners to finalize a route to and from the border causing the least disruption possible.
"We're not asking you to vote on a specific design of the truck route anymore than voting on the design of a certain housing division or industrial park," Fulton said. "What is before you is a plan, the design of that is moving forward separately. We're willing to work with landowners and business owners to figure out how to minimize the impact and look at all alternatives."

Opening Cross: In Sandy's Wake, Charity Is an Investment in the Future
This week, Inside Market Data travels to Hong Kong -- a city well-versed in handling typhoons and tropical storms -- for the Asia-Pacific Financial Information Conference with industry association FISD. But in the wake of Hurricane Sandy's destructive assault on the US East Coast -- much less used to dealing with the aftermath of such storms -- we appeal to those readers fortunate enough to have resources to share with those who don't; to those who have room, to take others in; to those who have time, to volunteer; and to those who can afford it, to give generously at redcross.org, by phone at 1-800-RED-CROSS or by texting REDCROSS to 90999.
The sight of parts of Manhattan—the island at the center of the world—still without power, water, or heat as the temperatures drop; contaminated water for those that have it in some counties; homes in New Jersey swept away by Sandy's fury; and a rising death toll daily must impress on us all how fortunate we are that these circumstances only arise after catastrophes, rather than being a way of life. Every topic covered by this publication is predicated on a certain level of market sophistication and reliability—power, infrastructure, skills, availability of technology—that depends on New York and its surrounding area not being subject to the same challenges as third-world countries.
For an industry used to moving markets in microseconds, it must have been especially frustrating to watch last week's slow approach of Hurricane Sandy, knowing that there was no way to prevent it, and the only actions possible—moving people and property as far out of Sandy's path as possible—would be a painfully slow process, inevitably resulting in a tragic human and financial cost. So is there a way we can apply the speed and sophistication of technology used in financial markets to events such as Sandy?
Market structure expert Patrick L Young, who last week joined the board of datacenter operator Data City Exchange, offers an interesting conundrum on weather phenomena: "The trouble with weather forecasting is that it's right too often for us to ignore it, and wrong too often for us to rely on it." In the case of large storms like Sandy, the existence of the storm isn't in doubt: where opinions may differ would be around the potential path and impact—for which models already exist (and reliably predicted Sandy's direction, based on interaction with other weather fronts, as well as the resulting storm surges of water).
Imagine being able to determine the potential impact to such a degree that evacuations could begin earlier and could be prioritized more effectively, aid could be sent sooner—or applying the same data and models already used to predict supply and demand in securities to retail purchases so suppliers could divert inventory ranging from wood and nails to dry goods and water from warehouses to stores closest to areas about to be hit. Sure, retailers already do this to a degree—but now it's time to take this to the next degree. Also, imagine applying the finance industry's stress-testing experience to testing building designs against likely storm types. Big Data is a big deal right now, and the financial markets attract some of the smartest people in the world, so let's harness that. Will it cost money? Of course, but firms and vendors will surely want to build these models anyway, for their potential value to commodities traders or insurers. And the benefits could far outweigh the cost. Imagine being able to stay open while your rivals were unprepared for water damage; imagine your staff being able to make it to work without interruption; imagine saving not just profits but lives.
To encourage innovation that benefits not just the financial industry but also a much broader community, we'll introduce a new award next year—let's tentatively call it "The Above and Beyond Award"—to recognize those who use their expertise to make a real difference on people's lives, not just their bottom line.
But until then, there's a different bottom line that desperately needs support: Firms' downtown offices may need refurbishment, but many in New York and New Jersey need much more right now. So now that the work to reopen the exchange floors is complete, please give generously so the task of rebuilding floors, walls and roofs can begin.

Armory opens early for homeless
About 100 homeless men and women took advantage of the early opening of the National Guard Armory on Brookhurst Road.
The armory, which typically opens to the homeless in early December, was able to open Nov. 13 because the cities of Fullerton and Anaheim each provided an extra $40,000.
The county provides most of the funding to run the shelter, which is operated by nonprofit Mercy House.
Nearly 100 individuals slept at the shelter both Saturday and Sunday nights, said Marie Avena, director of the Coast to Coast Foundation, who volunteered over the weekend. The armory can accommodate 200.
Volunteers set up mats for sleeping, serve food and provide toiletries.
The armory opens at 6 p.m. nightly. It usually closes in March, when the weather warms up.
A free shuttle is picking up shelter clients at 5 p.m. at North La Palma Park Way and Harbor Boulevard in Anaheim.
On nights when the shelter is not open to the homeless, shelter clients will be taken to alternate sites.
For information, go to mercyhouse.net.

Seeds of Hope: How one American woman is helping Africa help itself
Duarte was elected zone leader. His son, Castro, 18, volunteered to help teach other villagers how to read and write. His wife became the community health liaison. She attended workshops where she acquired basic medical knowledge. When villagers are sick, she coordinates a community effort to get people to the hospital.
"Before, she was just a woman and he was just a boy," Duarte said. "But now they have something to share with their community."
This morning finds Duarte hard at work smashing rocks with a hammer. He'll mix the rocks with the cement to make a floor for his latrine. He shows off his little home with pride. He's completed his Care for Life goals, but he isn't done with goal making. Since then, he's built a cooking hut and installed electricity in his home.
At first, Duarte said, he worked because he wanted to earn rewards from Care for Life. In the end, he worked because he realized his life was better.
"Other organizations come to give goods," Duarte said. "Care for Life comes to give work. For that, I am grateful."
Duarte has a lot of theories about why he and his neighbors didn't do these things before. "We were poor." "We didn't believe in ourselves." "We were lazy." "We didn't know we should."
"I did not know what it was to make a goal," said Joao Alexandre Salva, a 51-year-old villager. "When you are so poor, I think you stop believing that things can be different. It made me feel powerful as a father to make these decisions for the good of my family."
Care for Life took away their excuses, gave them education and a reason to try, Duarte said. And before long, the community began to change. There's now a lively market at the center of the village — small businesses increased by 26 percent. The path in front of Duarte's house, once unusable because people relieved themselves anywhere and everywhere, is now clean and bright. The percentage of people using latrines increased from less than 40 percent to close to 90. The trash heaps that used to dominate public walkways are gone. Ninety-seven percent of villagers now burn or bury their garbage.
As the community cleaned up, so did the villagers' health.
Duarte remembers a time when there were two funerals a day in his village. In his own home, malaria was a monthly visitor. He lost two sisters to cholera. They didn't know all the simple things they could do to prevent cholera and malaria like using latrines and clean water, he said. "We didn't know how to save our children."
Today, it's been nearly six months since Duarte has taken a child to the hospital. It turned out to be a false alarm. To his relief, the little 9-year-old didn't have malaria after all.
"I will probably never stop worrying," he said.
Hope on the horizon
In Mozambique, death still confronts Cindy Packard at every turn. The man the nonprofit employs to guard their offices in Beira lost his entire family. At church, she asks friends how they've been doing. They reply with stories of disease and loss. But, slowly, one person at a time, things are changing. The death rate in Care for Life villages has improved by an average of 77 percent.
Some might say Care for Life saved Chiverano. Duarte would not.
"Care for life taught us how," he said. "We did the work ourselves."
And that's exactly how Packard wants it.

Barack Obama Does Not Know Who Snooki Is
The president taped his 'View' appearance Wednesday.
Apparently the president has forgotten about the existence of the Jersey Shore star since name-checking her during the White House Correspondents' Dinner back in May. During his taping of The View Wednesday, Obama was asked about Snooki, who is basically BFFs with the president's 2008 competitor John McCain. Obama's response? "I'm sorry, I don't know who that is." Poor Snooki's having a rough week, huh? [NYDN]

92 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - November/December 2010
($40) Full, slightly hazy red. Sexy, soil-driven aromas of raspberry, smoked meat, crushed stone, licorice and brown spices; way beyond mere fruit. Then sappy, savory and complex in the mouth, with real calcaire energy to the tactile, palate-dusting flavors of red berries, spices and earth. Finishes very long and saline, with suave tannins building with air. A fascinating mostly pinot noir wine, and a convincing example of this limestone-rich site. This appears to be built for long life in bottle. (Incidentally, the Burlenberg and the cuvees that follow are Deiss's now-famous vins du terroir-his field blends of two or more varieties that are designated only by their premier cru or grand cru site rather than labeled by variety. Tasting these wines poses a real intellectual challenge for all but Alsace specialists and insiders who are intimately familiar with the distinctive soil character of Alsace's top sites, and do not need the crutch of the variety on the front label to assess the wine in the bottle. Thus far, very few growers have followed Deiss's example of bottling multiple crus, though some are experimenting with issuing a single wine or two simply by site name.)

Orszag Weighing Obama's Appeal to Stay On as Budget Director
White House Budget Director Peter Orszag was poised to become the first member of Barack Obama's Cabinet to leave, as early as this summer. Then came an appeal from the president insisting that he reconsider.
Orszag will make his decision soon, according to a person familiar with the matter, Bloomberg Businessweek will report in its April 26 issue. The 41-year-old budget director had been signaling to White House officials that he didn't plan to remain for the next budget cycle, the person said.
While it is common for budget directors to begin to exit after about 18 months, Orszag's departure would come just as Obama has begun to focus on deficit reduction.
A former director of the Congressional Budget Office, Orszag has worked to advance two of Obama's top legislative priorities: the $862 billion stimulus measure passed last February and the $940 billion health-care overhaul. As director of the Office of Management and Budget, he has prepared both of Obama's spending blueprints, projecting a deficit of $1.6 trillion this year.
When colleagues and individuals outside the administration ask how long he'll stay, Orszag responds that previous OMB directors' tenures have typically been about a year and a half.
"The job is very interesting because it touches all aspects of the government, but it can also be grueling," said Franklin Raines, who was President Bill Clinton's OMB director for 20 months and later served as Fannie Mae's CEO. "The OMB director often stands in opposition to White House staff, Cabinet members, and senior members of Congress on a wide variety of issues. It can be draining to be the voice of responsibility all the time."
Obama Adamant
Still, Obama was adamant that Orszag stay, the person said. Orszag associates, who only a few weeks ago thought his leaving this year was a certainty, now say they wouldn't be surprised if he stays for another year.
The post requires Senate confirmation. If Orszag were to leave this summer it would allow time to seat a successor by early September, when preparations usually begin for the next budget.
"Ideally, you have your budget director in place no later than Aug. 1," said Keith Hennessey, who headed former President George W. Bush's National Economic Council. "The question is, how long is it going to take to get your nominee confirmed?"
Leading Contenders
Among the leading contenders to succeed Orszag are Robert Greenstein, executive director of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities; Robert Reischauer, president of the Urban Institute and a former CBO director; and Gene Sperling, a Treasury Department adviser who's also under consideration for the vacant OMB deputy job, an administration official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. All three have advocated for fiscal restraint.
An Orszag exit soon would follow recent tradition, with three of Clinton's four OMB directors leaving within that period. Former President George W. Bush's first two OMB directors held the post for over two years while his last each left before the 18-month mark.
"OMB always faces the greatest burnout," said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a former CBO director under Bush.

I was extremely satisfied with the parts I ordered from PartsGeek, all the items ordered were an exact fit for the parts I was trying to replace. I had checked with several local auto parts businesses and none had the part and stated the parts could be ordered and would required several days for delivery. I received the parts from partsgeek within the same time and all the parts were well below the cost from auto parts stores. I saved in excess of $75.00 by using PartsGeek. Also their web site is user friendly and one of the best when comparing the parts to pictures in making sure what is being ordered matches the item needed. I have informed my co-workers and neighbors about partsgeek.com and plan to use this web/internet service when ordering future parts.
My part arrived very fast and as promised. The part installed with no problems. I was not able to find a Subaru cabin air filter in the aftermarket anywhere else. Parts Geek saved me about 40 bu...

I...want... to be wrong.
Hi all,I'm looking for a prayer book in English that is available in (or at least from) the UK. If someone could recommend one that has a decent selection of prayers including preparation for confession (very important) that would be great. Most of the prayer books I currently have are in Romanian and I can speak the language and understand it so I'm happy using them but the longer prayers take me an age to read. I have one English prayer book at present, the one by Archimandrite Ephrem Lash which seems to be the most widely available one over here, but I really don't like the modern English language - I've spent more than half my life in an area where people still say thee and thou in everyday speech, and I certainly expect it at least in a religious setting. I'd also like it to be small enough to carry around with me if at all possible.If anyone could point me at a book that meets my criteria and preferably also where I can buy it from I'd be very grateful indeed.ThanksJames
Thank God he said I was a politician because Aristotle defined the human person as 'animal politicus.' So at least I am a human person.

Hi Tatu / Mukul, Thanks for your responses. 1/. We are trying to compile in the linux environment and check out the timings. I will post the details after we try this out. 2/. Tatu - we are giving sufficient time for JVM to warm-up. First we run a load test with 1 user for 15 minutes. After this test, we ran with 3 users for 1/2 hour. The times I mentioned below are average time taken for around 1500 transactions.

Maintaining security continues to be one of the biggest issue affecting customers today. Although we have improved our process for releasing updates in a timely manner, we have not had a good track record of keeping our update deployment tools in sync with our security updates. Well this has come to an end this month.
Last week Microsoft released 12 security bulletins touching many different products and platforms, with 3 of the vulnerabilities not detected by MBSA. Previously, all we could offer our SMS customers was additional guidance from the update management solution accelerator, using process to remedy a technology limitation. This month however, the SMS team has stepped up to deliver a new enterprise scanner that scans for these vulnerabilities at the SAME TIME we released the bulletins, allowing our customers to immediately and easily secure their environment.
Although update management conversations with customers are often difficult and uncomfortable, they are a harsh reality of the industry as a whole. SMS has constantly been dragged into competitive battles with pure update management solutions because our customers don't believe that SMS can detect and deploy all security updates from Microsoft. With the SMS teams commitment demonstrated, we can now firmly tell customers that SMS is THE enterprise update management tool for Microsoft.

30The Rolling Stones - 'Sway'
"There is something dramatic about Mick Taylor's guitar solo. The way he plays it with a magnificent presence of measured, confident, authoritative youth but with a militaristic manner, which lends an extraordinary gravity to the song. I see the band through the song as a gang of mathematicians huddled round a problem, all with solemn faces, each fearlessly throwing forth their own take on where the solution may lie. This guitar solo always resonated with me because it carried the passion so profoundly it inspired me to play the guitar."
29Van Halen - 'Eruption'
Often stuck in the Top Ten in these polls, we've shifted it down a peg or two because let's face it, it's a bit crass, really. However, if it's unrelenting, shameless, show-off frantic fingerwork you're after, this is the one. 100 seconds of axe worship and little else. Originally played by Eddie Van Halen on his own creation, the Frankenstat.
28The Strokes - 'Last Nite'
"This made learning the guitar fun again when I was 11. Everyone can sing it still today. It's not complicated for the sake of being complicated."
27George Harrison feat. Eric Clapton - 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps'
Proving that a great guitar solo doesn't always need to rely on the number of notes you can cram into a bar, this Eric Clapton contribution to a Beatles track that Harrison initially wasn't happy with is a masterpiece of understated fretwork. It really does speak for itself, this one.
26Lynyrd Skynyrd - 'Free Bird'
The first rule of guitar solo lists is that 'Free Bird' must make an appearance. For us, it's midway through the 50. You wait four or five minutes for the shredding to commence and then it's one long multi guitar freestyle that goes on for five, ten or fifteen minutes depending on the version. Rednecks and mostly dead they may be, but Skynyrd knew their way round a solo.
25Led Zeppelin - 'Since I've Been Loving You'
"Jimmy Page really shows himself in this song. The subtleties at the start are replaced with ferocious runs towards the end. The dog's bollocks of solos."
24Thin Lizzy - 'The Boys Are Back In Town'
A classic riff doesn't just stand alone. It needs a great song, vocal and a massive solo to support it. Well 'TBABIT' had two. The 'twin guitar solo' from Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson pushes the track over the top, making it an axe classic.
23The Strokes - 'Reptilia'
Nick Valensi's guitar solo here is a thing of spidery beauty, climbing over the formidable combo of Fab Moretti's drums and Nikolai Fraiture's bass with mammoth new wave power. Perhaps the most 'Strokesian' track they ever recorded.
22Guns N' Roses - 'November Rain'
"This was a tough one, but I'm going to have to pick 'November Rain' by Guns N' Roses, which features one of the first guitar solos I ever tried to learn. We have history together so it hits me a different way than most, still, until this day."
21Radiohead - 'Just'
"The Greenwood. Like being smashed in the face with a bucket of rabid razor blade wielding ejaculating crabs."
