Slovenia's Benchmark Bond Yield Rises on Europe, Homes Woes
Slovenia's benchmark bond yield rose above 6 percent for the first time since February as the debt crisis in Europe deepens and its largest bank needs more cash than previously announced.
The bond maturing in 2021 extended losses for the second day, with the yield reaching 6.0047 percent at 4:40 p.m. in Ljubljana, according to mid-pricing data compiled by Bloomberg. The yield dropped below 6 percent in February after the European Central Bank offered lenders in Europe cheap loans.
"It looks like the rise in bond yields is due to both international and domestic factors," said William Jackson, an emerging-markets economist at Capital Economics in London. "There is general investor risk aversion due to events in the euro zone and it seems the Slovenian authorities have revised up the recapitalization requirement for Nova Ljubljanska Banka d.d., which has probably put the spotlight on domestic problems as well."
Slovenian banks, including Nova Ljubljanska Banka, are relying on financing from the ECB as record losses and uncertainty in the European banking industry limits access to wholesale funding.
High Yields
"Yields on Slovenian bonds are pretty high," Marko Kranjec, governor of the country's central bank told a business forum in Ljubljana today. "But more of an issue is access to funding. Access to funding could be a big problem for the Slovenian bank industry."
Lenders took out 2 billion euros ($2.53 billion) of ECB loans, the Slovenian central bank said June 14, while NLB borrowed 1.2 billion euros, according to its acting Chief Executive Officer Bozo Jasovic.
The debt crisis in Europe is deepening as the second vote in Greece failed to improve investors' risk appetite and borrowing costs in Spain and Italy continued to climb.
Nova Ljubljanska, in which the government holds an indirect majority, needs 500 million euros in capital by the end of the month, and even more to continue to lend to companies to support economic growth, Finance Minister Janez Sustersic told the same business forum attended by Kranjec.

Nice place, everything easy (Keys pick-up/drop off) perfect location.
Thanks Richard for being so available!
Great location, nice apartment
Lovely flat, great location!
The apartment was super nice, just like the picture. Richard was a great host and let us leave the luggage in the apartment before the official check in. The city was really beatiful and the apartment location is perfect for an unforgettable Lisbon experience.
Lovely, cosy flat in the heart of Lisboa. (View to the water inclusive)
Perfect to stay with two people for longer, with 3 (witch we where) fine for a couple of days!
We got he key by a lovely old woman from the neighborhood, it worked out fine!
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Great apartment in a great area, full of Lisbon life! Lovely park close with a great view, Barro Alto just a small walk away. The apartment had everything you need and even though it was top floor still had plenty of space. No problems at all and Richard was very communicative and welcoming too.
I was staying in this flat with 3 friends for 5 nights and it was great, perfectly situated so everything was really close and there are lot of nice bars around but in the street itself it is really quiet. We only saw Richard the first day but that was because we organized ourselves, if we had needed anything we could have contacted him, he was very nice and helpful.
It was the great pleasure to be in this bright and comfortable apartment.
We have arrived very late but Richard has organised everything perfectly.

Digestive Disorders Health Center
Upper Gastrointestinal Endoscopy
How It Is Done continued...
During the test, you may get a pain medicine and a sedative through an intravenous (IV) line in your arm or hand. These medicines reduce pain and will make you feel relaxed and drowsy during the test. You may not remember much about the actual test.
You will be asked to lie on your left side with your head bent slightly forward. A mouth guard may be placed in your mouth to protect your teeth from the endoscope (scope). Then the lubricated tip of the scope will be guided into your mouth. Your doctor may gently press your tongue out of the way. You may be asked to swallow to help move the tube along. The scope is no thicker than many foods you swallow. It will not cause problems with breathing.
After the scope is in your esophagus, your head will be tilted upright. This makes it easier for the scope to slide down your esophagus. During the procedure, try not to swallow unless you are asked to. Someone may remove the saliva from your mouth with a suction device. Or you can allow the saliva to drain from the side of your mouth.
Your doctor will look through an eyepiece or watch a screen while he or she slowly moves the endoscope. The doctor will check the walls of your esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Air or water may be injected through the scope to help clear a path for the scope or to clear its lens. Suction may be applied to remove air or secretions.
A camera attached to the scope takes pictures. The doctor may also insert tiny tools such as forceps, clips, and swabs through the scope to collect tissue samples (biopsy), remove growths, or stop bleeding.
To make it easier for your doctor to see different parts of your upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract, someone may change your position or apply gentle pressure to your belly. After the exam is done, the scope is slowly withdrawn.
After the test
The test usually takes 30 to 45 minutes. But it may take longer, depending upon what is found and what is done during the test.

Most Helpful
Another fabulous recipe, Sue! These went together so quickly! About 10 minutes to peel and slice the potatoes. I did add extra cayenne and cumin (personal preference). The hint of cinnamon really gave the fries great flavor! I didn't turn them in the oven (too lazy ;)), and it didn't seem to make too much of a difference. Thanks for an easy, delicious side, Sue! I love your recipes!
Delicious and different. We like really spicy food, so next time I will double the cayenne..or maybe even double the amounts of spices to the potatoes. I cut the potato's into french fries and baked as suggested. They smelled heavenly when baking. Thanks for a easy, delicious dish.
These were great! I also doubled the spices/oil mix since when I threw everything together in the plastic bag it hardly seemed like enough to completely coat the potatoes. I also sliced the potatoes into fries, and served them alongside chickpea shwarma sandwiches.

Our Show
New Mix: Low, The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart, More
If you're a band that's still making music after decades in obscurity, it helps to have a sense of humor about it. All Songs Considered kicks off this week with music from Five Eight, a rock quartet that sprouted from the same fertile Athens, Ga., ground as R.E.M. and Pylon (the band has toured with both) and became hometown heroes — but never managed to break through on a national level. Self-described as "The Greatest Band That Never Was," Five Eight has a new album called Your God Is Dead to Me Now, whose cover art features the image of a cold, dead fish. Subtle.
Also on the show this week: Paul Simon and Low come back strong after years without a peep from either, The Pains of Being Pure at Heart beats the sophomore slump by switching from '80s jangle to '90s fuzz, and Of Montreal gets reliably weirder and grander on a new EP. Plus: a bittersweet salute to LCD Soundsystem, who capped off a decade of infectious dance-punk with a marathon farewell concert this weekend.
The new albums from Paul Simon and Low are currently streaming in their entirety on NPR.org. Head to our First Listen page to hear them, along with other new releases from Panda Bear, Alison Krauss and more.

Lost River Cave is preparing to improve the Trailhead Parking Facility.
The work will be a little easier thanks to an 18,500 grant provided by Governor Ernie Fletcher's Office for Local Development, or GOLD.
Secretary LaJuana Wilcher, of the Environmental and Public Protection Cabinet, was on hand to present the check.
GOLD commissioners hope the improved parking facility will make the park more accessible for visitors and continue to spur tourism in the area.

Measurements of the gain of the P(20), 10.6 μ, transition of CO2have been made in a flowing He, N2, CO2amplifier. Both small-signal and saturated gain conditions were investigated as a function of radial position. At low discharge currents, the radial small-signal gain profile followed a J0Bessel function distribution as predicted from the electron density distribution, while at higher currents, the gain was nearly constant across the tube diameter. Further increases in the current produced a lower gain on the tube axis than near the tube wall. This spatial behavior of the small-signal gain with discharge current can be understood following the theoretical models of Gordietz et al. or more recently of Wiegand et al. The theory indicates the small-signal gain behavior is largely explained by the increase of axial gas temperature with discharge current. Gain measurements at signal levels high enough to cause gain saturation indicate the gain is harder to saturate on the tube axis than near the tube wall. An analysis of the experimental data shows that the gain-saturation parameter increases with current density.

Count out Sunday as your day to check out the library.
Starting Jan. 4, all branches of the Brooklyn Public Library (BPL), including the Central Library at Grand Army Plaza, will be closing operation on Sundays.
Officials from BPL released a statement shortly before Christmas explaining that they made the decision to terminate Sunday service in order to save money after actual and proposed reductions in city and state funding to the library system. Sunday service will be eliminated at Central Library and at neighborhood branches in Borough Park, Flatbush, Kensington, McKinley Park and Midwood (other neighborhood branches were already closed on Sundays).
"Eliminating Sunday service is not a decision that we made lightly, but cutting back these hours will immediately save BPL money and allow us to still maintain six-day service at every library in Brooklyn," said BPL Executive Director Dionne Mack-Harvin. "We will do everything we can in this economy to keep our doors open to the public, especially as more and more Brooklynites are turning to their neighborhood libraries to find jobs, learn computer skills, borrow books and DVDs, and attend our free programs."
According to a spokesperson with BPL, librarians and other library staff would not be losing their jobs as the system scales back on its weekend service. The spokesperson did not grant this newspaper permission to speak with librarians at the branches closing on Sundays and librarians who were approached referred all press inquires to BPL's marketing and communications division.
Marketing and Communications Associate Malika L. Granville said that the library would be saving about $800,000 by not operating on Sundays.
"Sunday is the most expensive day we operate our branches because we pay people overtime," Granville said. "We are doing this in an effort to cut costs while saving jobs and providing service for the other six days."
Not all branches in the BPL system are affected by the announcement, as many are already closed during Sundays, though hours for some branches have increased or decreased over the past year depending on budgetary concerns and staffing availability. Programs that have been scheduled on Sundays into 2009 at branches with existing Sunday service would be moved to another day, though Granville said that there were a limited number of programs scheduled on Sunday.
Brooklyn Public Library staff have received some resistance from community members regarding the closures, particularly from residents in significantly Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods such as Borough Park and Midwood. Assemblyman Dov Hikind questioned the library's decision and urged the Brooklyn Public Library to close branches in those neighborhoods on Saturdays instead.
"Once upon a time, the customer was always right," Hikind said. "Today, the customer is apparently just plain irrelevant. No one disagrees that difficult choices have to be made in light of the current economic situation, but significant agency operating decisions need to be made in concert with the needs of the patrons."
Granville said her office has heard from residents of a number of communities affected by the closings, and that library officials had received responses from the Orthodox community.
"As of right now, we are not sure of what we will do, but if we do, we will definitely notify the community," said Granville.
The Brooklyn Public Library, the fifth largest library system in the United States, is an independent library system that serves 2.5 million residents of Brooklyn.

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Phase II study with diabetic neuropathy candidate SB-509 failed to meet primary and secondary endpoints.[© Argus - Fotolia.com]
Shares in Sangamo BioSciences plummeted over 30% yesterday on the news that the firm was shelving further development of its lead candidate, SB-509 for diabetic neuropathy, due to poor Phase IIb study results. SB-509 comprises a plasmid encoding zing finger DNA-binding protein (ZFP) transcription factor (TF), designed to upregulate endogenous VEGF-A expression.
Sangamo's stock price dropped as low as $3.25 in early morning trading yesterday after closing Friday at $4.35. It finally closed Monday at $3.02, a 30.57% drop in value.
The placebo-controlled trial in 170 subjects evaluated the effects of SB-509 on nerve conduction velocity in the sural nerve as the primary endpoint along with neurological impairment score in the lower limb (secondary endpoint) and other exploratory endpoints including lower extremity neurological sensory examination (LENSE), quality of life assessments, and intraepidermal nerve fiber density (IENFD).
The trial failed to meet its primary endpoint at 180 days and also missed its secondary endpoint and IENFD endpoints, although, the drug did provide clinically relevant improvements in the mean total LENSE score.
"Based on these results, we will discontinue further development of SB-509 and will focus our attention and resources on our pipeline of ZFP therapeutics for HIV and monogenic diseases," notes Edward Lanphier, Sangamo president and CEO.
The firm's SB-728 program is a ZFP-nuclease-based approach to modifying the gene encoding CCR5, the major HIV co-receptor. Lead candidate, an autologous ZFN-CCR5-modified T-cell product (SB-728-T), is being evaluated in a Phase I/II and two Phase I trials in subjects with HIV and AIDS. Positive data from Phase I studies evaluating the therapeutic candidate in HIV patients receiving HAART therapy were presented in September. Additionally, an SB-728 hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) product is in preclinical development.
