Over the last 3 to 4 years, the Industry has seen explosive growth in this business fueled by increased interest in FX as an asset class and the soaring number of new hedge funds. Entering the FXPB space may be a valuable way for banks to leverage existing infrastructure and investment. Primary clients: Hedge funds Commodity trading advisors (CTA's) Traditional asset managers & regional banks How it works: Clients trade with an executing brokers, who then "give-up" their trades to the FXPB for trade processing. The FXPB acts as a central counterparty to the clients' transactions: Holding any collateral required for trading Extending credit lines Becoming the central back office for the client 2 FX Prime Brokerage Model Client Execution + PB instructions Trades with a number Executing broker of bank counterparties Client may out- source PB confirms block trade Trade given operational up to PB functions with Broker Prime Broker Operations confirms allocations with Client and/or middle office Service Provider provider Manages the operational support for the client FX Prime Broker 3 Value Proposition Client Access to multi-dealer pricing and liquidity Realize operational efficiencies, STP and reduction in capital expenditures Collateral requirements aggregated with the FXPB Trade allocation, confirmation and settlement consolidated with FXPB Consolidate and customize reporting through the FXPB.

Executing off market trades 6 Risks & Challenges for the Client Risk Challenge Confidentiality Reliance on PB to implement proper "Chinese walls" segregating the Risk clients portfolio from the PB's franchise business Concentration Clients put "all their eggs in one basket" Risk If the credit worthiness of the PB deteriorates or the relationship terminates, the client may be faced with credit, liquidity and/or operational risks. Operational Reconciliation of portfolio with FXPB Risk Trade rejection by the FXPB Monitoring of post execution events (exercises, barriers..) Market Risk Failure to notify FXPB of trades in timely fashion Reliance on the FXPB to properly match trades and highlight discrepancies Managing basis risk introduced by putting on and taking off option, derivative and ndf positions with multiple brokers 7 Industry Initiatives Market participants, central banks and industry organizations have come together to address some of the broader systemic risks emerging in the FXPB business. Current Initiatives: The FXJSC Prime Brokerage/E-Commerce Sub Group is conducting an analysis of the development and risks associated with FXPB with the goal of making recommendations of guidelines to be included in the NIPS Code. The NY Fed FX Operations Managers Prime Brokerage Sub Group is reviewing the operational issues and risks associated with the FXPB business NY Foreign Exchange Committee (FXC) / Financial Markets Legal Group (FMLG): The FXC published a standard Give-Up Agreement The FMLG is undertaking a review, in consultation with the U.S. Department of Treasury, of the KYC responsibilities foreign exchange executing brokers have under the U.S. Patriot Act Participating dealers must continue to work together to create automated solutions for the notification process.

I've been a bit shabby with the travel podcasts of late, and there have been three new podcasts uploaded to the site since my last podcast blog. Apologies.
The first one was recorded in South Africa's most famous city and is called "Cape Town - Ask the locals". In it I hit the streets to ask passer-bys what their favourite bars, restaurants and neighbourhoods are.
The second was recorded in Spain last week and is called "Barcelona - Highlights of the city" and is an interview about just that - the city's highlights.
Last but not least is a podcast just uploaded earlier this afternoon called "Johannesburg - At the Apartheid Museum". I recorded it in 'Joburg' last February in one of the world's most fascinating museums.
Hope you enjoy them and if none of them tickle your fancy, we've got over 70 more travel podcasts to choose from.
In our hostelworld.com travel blog we bring you all the latest company news and information on new additions to the site including podcasts, videos and more. You'll also get inside information on a variety of destinations across the globe as they're visited by our travel editor and writers.

The Minnesota Wild have locked up the goalie position for at least the next few seasons. The team announced Tuesday that they have re-signed goalie Josh Harding to a three-year contract. The Minneapolis Star Tribune reported that the contract is worth 5.7 million. Harding, 28, has spent six seasons with Minnesota, but has never played in more than 34 games in a single season. His career high for games played came last season, but Harding still missed time with an injury. Harding missed all of the 2010-11 season after tearing his ACL and MCL in a preseason game. Appearing in 117 games in six seasons, Harding has compiled a 41-51-8 record with a 2.65 goals against average and a .916 save percentage. With starting net minder Niklas Backstrom entering the final year of his contract, Harding elected to stay in Minnesota, rather than chase a starting role elsewhere. The Wild have multiple talented young goalie prospects, but none are likely ready to compete fulltime in the NHL jus...

if someone of them were caught, like they would admit they are from the military. not credibile.
If selected for publication, it will appear as soon as possible on Haaretz.com.
Syrian rebels have released a video showing who they said were Iranian mercenaries and Revolutionary Guard officials that were kidnapped by opposition forces on Saturday.
On Saturday, Iranian state news agency IRNA quoted an unnamed official in Iran's embassy in Damascus as saying that 48 pilgrims were seized by "armed groups" on the Damascus airport road as they returned from a religious shrine.
Later in the day, however, Iran's semi-official Fars news agency cited a Syrian official as saying that the attack was conducted by soldiers from the Free Syrian Army (FSA), the main armed opposition group working to depose Syrian President Bashar Assad.
On Sunday, the FSA released a video allegedly displaying those kidnapped, taking responsibility for the operation.
However, FSA officials speaking in the video denied Iranian claims that those taken were pilgrims, saying that they were in fact mercenaries who had patrolled the area, and who included offers in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
The Syria rebels also said that they would not negotiate the return of the Iranian captives until Iran admits its involvement in the Syrian crisis and pledges to halt aid to Assad's regime.

After you and Louis had left Harry's flat, he (Harry) and Eleanor quickly got dressed, cutting off what they were doing.
"I knew this would happen!" Eleanor said, running a hand through her messy hair.
"Then why did you agree to it?!" Harry asked frantically, rethinking the entire reason he wanted to hook up with Eleanor.
"I don't know!" She cried, searching for her shoes. Harry sighed,
"Where are you going, El?"
"Home. I need to talk to Louis." She responded, pulling on one of her shoes.
"Don't. They need time to be angry with us. We have to let them have some space for a while. They made it clear that they didn't really want to be with us anymore…" Harry mumbles, stepping over to her. She pulled her hands up to her face to hide it as she cried. Harry slowly pulled her into a hug and mumbled multiple times that things would be okay, and they would be, just not for Elounor or (your ship with Hary).
Back at Louis' flat, you and he were sleeping on the sofa. He rolled over and felt his hand touch something, so he opened his eyes and saw you laying at the opposite end of the couch. He smiled lightly to himself and got up, leaving the room. He came back a few moments later with a blanket and saw that you were awake.
"Lou, I thought you had left for a second there…" You mumble sleepily.
"I wouldn't leave my flat with you here all alone! You need me to keep you company," He chuckles, "I was just getting a blanket. You looked kind of cold." You nod and lay back down. He starts to put the blanket over you, but you stop him.
"I can't sleep unless I have something to cuddle with," You admit quietly. He smiles and lays down next to you, pulling the blanket over the both of you.
"I guess I'll have to do for now," He whispers, kissing your cheek afterwards. "Get some sleep, (y/n)."
"Goodnight, Louis."
"Goodnight, love." He kisses your cheek again softly and you close your eyes. He does the same and you soon fall asleep, cuddled together on the sofa.
Over the next week, (y/n) and Louis were inseparable. They did everything together, went everywhere together, all of that. Two weeks after the two couples broke up, Louis asked out (y/n) and she said yes, having developed a large crush on the boy who was there for her when she cried about her now ex-boyfriend.
Eleanor and Harry kept hooking up occasionally, but it stopped by the time Louis and (y/n) got together. Eleanor stopped talking to all of the guys and basically fell out of the fandom

Some time ago our servers started to complain that their virus definitions were out of date. I tried to start the admin console, and failed repeatedly. Eventually I placed a call to RM and their engineer (who I've dealt with before many times, and who I trust) spent a long time trying to work out why it had stopped working. It appeared to have been uninstalled, I was told, partially, at least. I therefore need to reinstall, perhaps after running Symantec's agressive strip-off-all-the-old-crap application. I was also informed that we did not licence SEP through RM, but directly with Symantec.
Being advised to reinstall the console is all well and good, but for a few things:
- I can't find an install source
- I can't find a licence
- I don't know our customer or support id
I don't even know which version of SEP we're running (unless someone knows how to get the clients to tell me). EDIT - found it - it's 11.0. I'm sure that button only took me to a web page last time I clicked it!
We must still be licensed as the clients are receiving updates, and i recently had a missed call from Symantec wanting me to renew (but leaving no contact information).
Any suggestions at all short of starting from scratch?
Last edited by birchanger; 16th April 2013 at 05:56 PM.
To my mind, Symantec always send licence information via email. This happened with us even when we purchased Symantec via RM. I would check all email accounts that may possibly have received it for the info. That will get you to symantec file connect where you can download installers, etc.

Athlete of the Week: Josh Russell
Date: April 30, 2009
by: Jen Blanco | Associate Editor
Josh Russell has played nearly every position across the diamond, but it wasn't until partway through this season that the Lakewood Ranch High senior found a new home on the infield.
Prior to this season, Russell had spent the majority of his time playing shortstop while occasionally pitching in relief for the Mustangs. But as the season progressed, Russell's pitching continued to improve, and soon the right-hander became a permanent part of the Mustangs pitching rotation.
"This year, he's done everything we've asked him to do," coach Mike Mullen said. "We've taken him out of his everyday shortstop role, and I think that's helped him by keeping some of the pressure off his arm. He's just done an outstanding job for us."
Russell is 5-1 as a starter this season, with his most recent win coming April 21 against state-ranked and then undefeated Pendleton. He allowed just one run on six hits before turning the ball over in the seventh inning.
"It was pretty cool to beat them because they're ranked (in the state), Russell said. "In the beginning of the season, I wasn't really considered one of the coach's go-to guys, but I guess I am now."
After closing out their regular season with a 5-4 win over rival Braden River April 24, the Mustangs began their quest for a district title against Charlotte in a Class 5A-District 12 quarterfinal April 28.
The Mustangs beat the Tarpons earlier this season with Russell on the mound.
"As long I pitch well, then I shouldn't have a problem," Russell said. "I threw a complete game against them earlier this year, so I'm pretty confident going into the game."

A dialog about whether the Gods are infinite or not often begins with "Gerald Gardner wrote that the Gods of the Wica are 'little gods.'" Yes, he did, but he was not very interested in abstract theology. I don't think he was asserting that, if the Abrahamic God is infinite, then our Pagan Gods must be finite. Rather, his point was that, whereas (many) Christians believe in a God who is distant, arbitrary, angry, vengeful, and punishing, Witches believe in Gods who are nearby, kind, compassio … [Read more...]

Aporrheton5: The Laws of Magic (Revised), Part III
[Yes, this is the third and last part, for now.]9. You must not betray the secrets that cannot be told.This Law addresses the Arrheta. Insofar as Craft Laws are simply observations of how psychic reality works (and it is for that, really, that we should value them), then they are "self-enforcing" like any other statement of fact. So what this law means is:(a) Never give anyone power of life and death over you;(b) Don't violate your own sense of your self-integrity; you know what … [Read more...]
Aporrheton 5: The Laws of Magic (Revised), Part II
[This continues yesterday's blog, updating my thoughts on magic and psychic talents--since I am unfortunately thought to have some expertise about such matters. Sheesh!]3. You cannot use the arts of the Craft to win fame, fortune, power, or any other sort of material or social advantage.This is how all the psychic arts work, not just those of the Craft. Why they work thus is another question—that they do work thus is well-known. Perhaps the simplest explanation is that if your major mo … [Read more...]
Aporrheton 5: The Laws of Magic (Revised), Part I
In the early 1970s I wrote a series of "Flying Scrolls" (as they were called in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn) for internal use in the New Reformed Orthodox Order of the Golden Dawn. I chose to call them Aporrhetons, because the Greeks separated the secrets of the Eleusinian Mysteries into two classes: the Arrheta "inexpressible," which could be known only by experiencing them and which therefore needed no protection by a mere human law; and the Aporrheta, the "not to be spoken," that whi … [Read more...]
Some New Pages for the Book of Shadows
These are some pages of original materials that I wrote for the NROOGD Book of Shadows back in the early 1970s. Seems like it might be neighborly to share them. A Daily Litany for the Lady. This was written at the request of Mathonwy and Idris in May 1971, to give a couple a way to use the Craft daily, aside from working a shortened version of our basic ritual. [Notice that this litany uses the original NROOGD correspondences.]1. To be said at sunrise, or on rising in the morning. Hol … [Read more...]
A History of the Craft in America: California and Councils, VII: A Church for Witches
After the second Pagan Ecumenical Council meeting in June 1974, Gwydion and I continued to discuss the problem of how to organize a "church" for Witches, now that we had a reason not to have to include Pagans in general. In a way, it was like trying to set up an organization for anarchists—so that one could be the Anarch. There were already organizations whose members were individual Witches, but these were not meeting the need.Most Witches at that time clearly believed that one normally b … [Read more...]
A History of the Craft in America: California and Councils, VI, The Second PEC
In discussing the first Pagan Ecumenical Council meeting afterward, Gwydion, Alison, I and several others realized that we had not arrived at a specific proposal for an organizational structure because, in fact, the Pagan groups represented at the meeting did not have enough common ground to define any goals or structures. The PEC had focused on Pagan religions, excluding the magical lodges, political associations, and metaphysical churches, yet we still differed on what we did, how we worked, … [Read more...]

A History of the Craft in America: California and Councils, Part V, 1974-1975
Here begins what will become Volume IB or II of the finished book. As I mentioned, many important changes took place in 1973 within at least half a dozen different Traditions. As a result, the period 1974 to 1979, which I will now begin covering for the whole of the USA and parts of Canada, requires a new chapter. I'm starting with events in California in the mid-1970s, not because they were the only developments at that time, but they turned out to have national implications.Focusing first o … [Read more...]
On the Nature of the Gods
[These are thoughts based on my own Awakening experiences and on Alan Watts' explication of The Cloud of Unknowing. These are not "Gospel truth," but instead are insights from what I myself have experienced, leaving out all the footnotes, qualifications, and conditionals, for the sake of clarity. I'll be happy to discuss details and fine tuning later.

Interesting to play Pakistani in US show: Indian actress Nimrat
After finding global visibility with "The Lunchbox", Indian actress Nimrat Kaur has landed a chance to play a Pakistani character in the fourth season of hit American series "Homeland", set in Islamabad. The Punjabi girl, who has roots in Rawalpindi and Lahore, finds the opportunity "very interesting".
Currently in Cape Town for a shooting schedule of the Emmy Award-winning political thriller series, Nimrat says "it is very early on" to comment on her experience.
However, she is loving every bit of it - especially since her role of Tasneem Kureshi, a high-level operative within Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence agency, has been increased from five to nine episodes.
Nimrat said she accepted the role without giving a "second thought".
"It is very interesting (to play a Pakistani character in a US show). India and Pakistan are culturally so similar...I belong to Punjab and there's so much similarity between us. There are food-loving and fun-loving people ...I'd just say it's a country which is a victim of circumstances," she told IANS in a telephonic interaction from Cape Town.
It bears repeating that the subcontinent was one nation till partition in 1947.
The fact that her character belonged to another nation didn't pose a hurdle for Nimrat.
"It was more important to feel the part than to feel where the character came from. It's an interesting character in the overall story of the show's new season," she said.
While for now the "Homeland" team is busy shooting the show, Nimrat hopes she will be able to visit Pakistan at least once in her lifetime.
"I'm dying to go to Pakistan once," she squeaked with excitement, before adding: "My maternal and paternal ancestors come from Rawalpindi and Lahore. It's a strange affinity we have towards people there, and I would love to get a chance of going there.
"It's a dream," added the actress, who is joined by Indian actor Suraj Sharma of "Life Of Pi" fame, "Mad Men" star Mark Moses and Art Malik, known for "True Lies" in the show.
Nimrat, for many, is the girl who entices chocolate lovers via Cadbury advertisements on the Indian small screen.
"Homeland" will air in India on Star World Premiere HD starting Oct 6, along with its telecast in the US. Her character will be introduced in the narrative in the fourth episode.
It may sound strange, but Nimrat had never seen "Homeland" before she saw the pilot episode of the new season.
"I wish I had seen it before! After I saw the pilot episode, I asked for CDs of all the three seasons and saw all of it! I watched it whenever I found time between work," said the actress, who has been going in and out of Cape Town since early July.
Nevertheless, she is yet to soak in its beauty in its entirety.
"It's my first time here (in South Africa). But I have not been travelling here much because it's cold and rainy. Otherwise, it's really nice and beautiful," she said.
Back home in India, questions await as to when she's starring in her next Indian project.
To that, she said: "I am finalising something very soon."

The real clout of a country in foreign affairs doesn't come from being able to check or pressure adversaries and buy friends through trade and aid. It comes from the ability to assimilate their interests into your own in such a way that you can shape their policy. Indeed, to go a step further, to get into their minds.

Like some might have already noticed, it has been really quiet in my lomo-home for the last few months. It's because of my other travel blog which i started in march, it has taken up a lot of my time…
The good news is: Soon I'll be back! And soon there will also be a new series of travel articles called "Bravebird explores the world", which will first be online in German and soon after hopefully in English as well. On there I'll show you a new lomo-country each month.
Who actually is "bravebird"? To connect my travel blog called bravebird to this blog, I've decided to change even my username of many years »upic« to my blog name »brave bird«. I just wanted to let you know.
I am already looking forward to being back and I wish you all already a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Ritchie Boys
Written and directed by Christian Bauer
Opens October 13, Quad
The horror of war gets gently upstaged by the wit and wisdom of the vets interviewed in this solid WWII doc. The Ritchie Boys were mostly refugees of Nazism who came to America filled with rage at the rape of Europe and ready to take up arms against Hitler. Many were artists or intellectuals, not exactly natural fighters, but still desperate to enlist and help liberate their homelands. Listening to these men reminisce about their experiences at Camp Ritchie, where they were trained as interrogators of P.O.W.'s, is an education. These are men who know of what they speak; they're also eloquent, erudite, and funny as hell. Sitting in on a car ride with two of the Ritchie Boys feels like wandering backstage at a Friars Club roast. Of course, war is serious business and these soldiers know that better than anyone. If civilians could smell the stench of war for just a second, says one, they'd become pacifists. Another counters the romantic notion of a parachute jump, saying that nobody jumps out of a plane, they step out. The film happily sticks to its regal subjects, avoiding speculation about whether military interrogations aren't quite what they used to be.

It's time to take a look back at the stories making headlines this week in the 69 News week in review.
Tuesday, former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky was sentenced to 30 to 60 years in prison for molesting 10 boys.
The judge called it a life sentence for the 68-year-old Sandusky.
In a statement to the Penn State radio station and in court, Sandusky maintained his innocence, saying his accusers conspired against him.
Also, the state moved to revoke Sandusky's $59,000-a-year pension.

Jim Souhan analyzes the local sports scene and advises you to never take his betting advice. He likes old guitars and old music, never eats press box hot dogs, and can be heard on 1500ESPN at 2:05 p.m. weekdays, and Sundays from 10 a.m.-noon.

Twins slugger Chris Colabello is one of those people you cheer for. He's a great guy, generous with his time. He's a great teammate. He's a great story. What he still needs to prove, despite his impressive performance in early April, is that he is a big-league hitter.
On April 23, Colabello went 2-for-6 with a homer and four RBI. At that moment, he was becoming one of the best stories in all of baseball, if not all of sport - a former independent league grinder who had finally found success in the majors.
Since that day, Colabello is 8-for-69 (a .116 batting average) with one double and one home run.
The fear in the Twins' organization is that opposing pitchers, forced to dissect Colabello's swing because of the threat he posed, have found his flaws and are working him over. If Colabello can't adjust to the adjustments pitchers have made against him, he may not last long in the big leagues, even if his RBI total remains impressive.
Maybe he's just in a slump. But he'll have to prove that's all it is if he's going to regain his status as a heartwarming story.
I'll be on WJON in St. Cloud at 7:15 a.m., and on 1500ESPN in the Twin Cities at 12:15ish tomorrow.
My Twitter handle is @Souhanstrib.
Did we learn anything during the Twins' Opening Day loss in Chicago?
Not really.
Let's kick it around anyway.
Maybe my first and foremost takeaway from Opening Day is that it didn't feel like Opening Day. Two bad teams opening in one of baseball's worst ballparks on what promised to be (but wasn't) a cold day - that's a really bad idea.
Major League Baseball has flourished in a lot of ways under Bud Selig, but starting the season in Australia has robbed the openers in the continental US of their specialness.
Let's start this with a Top 15 list of places the Twins should open each season:
1. Miami. The Marlins' ballpark is funky, the weather is almost bound to be good (even if there is a little of the customary southern Florida light rain), and it's a two-hour drive from Fort Myers. A Twins fan could watch the final spring training games, then attend the season opener. Perfect.
2. Tampa Bay. See: Marlins. The Rays play in a terrible ballpark, but it is indoors, so Opening Day will at least occur on time.
3. Houston. Warm weather, easy flight, and a team the Twins might even have a chance to beat on Opening Day.
4. Texas: See: Houston. Except for the part about winning.
5. Atlanta.
6. Cincinnati: Risk of colder weather, but Opening Day in Cincinnati should be the real opening day every season.
7. Yankee Stadium. Risk of colder weather, but what's better than Opening Day at Yankee Stadium?
8. Boston. Unless it's Opening Day at Fenway.
9. San Diego. Long flght to the coast, but perfect weather and a pretty good ballpark.
10. Los Angeles: See San Diego.
11. Anaheim: See Los Angeles.
12. Queens: A watered-down version on Opening Day in Yankee Stadium.
13. Baltimore. It's become a great baseball town again, with a great ballpark.
14. D.C.: Not a great ballpark, but an interesting team.
15. Pittsburgh. Perhaps the only ballpark in America that is remindful of Target Field, and better than Target Field. (Although part of the reason it's better is that it's bordered by two rivers.)
Back to the Twins' opener, and the hints that may have appeared within:
1. Joe Mauer did not look natural at first base. I think he can win a Gold Glove there, but he whiffed on one tough grounder and bobbled an easy one.
2. Josh Willingham's bat looked slow all spring, and he looked overmatched in his first at-bat against the exceptional Chris Sale, but he drove three balls to the outfield, and hit a couple of them pretty well. That's actually an encouraging sign.
3. Aaron Hicks, the subject of my Tuesday column, got two hits, but still has to prove he can hit big-league pitching from the left side.
4. Ricky Nolasco was disappointing. He should be a solid pitcher for the long run, but he didn't show great stuff or presence on Monday.
5. The Twins have to be really glad they didn't dump Anthony Swarzak last spring.
6. Brian Dozier has developed into a nice player, a quality defender who can drive the ball. He is not a leadoff hitter. He doesn't get on base enough.
7. The Twins have better prospects than the White Sox, but the Sox look like they're better prepared to make a jump in the victory column this season. Abreu could be a force, and the Sox have a real ace in Sale. The Sox might have the best combination of speed and power they've had in a long time, after years of looking like a slow-pitch softball team.
I hope Mike Zimmer isn't going to let Johnny Manziel's flamboyance dissuade him from drafting the kid. I don't think the Vikings will have a shot at Manziel, anyway, but writing off Manziel because of his personality may be like the Falcons trading Brett Favre because he partied too much.
I'll be on 1500ESPN at 12:15 with Judd & Mackey.
Earlier thsi spring, I wrote about Glen Perkins' transformation from problematic probable first-round bust to Everybody's Favorite Twin. Then, yesterday, he signed a contract extension for far less than his market value to remain with the Twins through 2017 or 2018.
What I love most about the story is that Perkins approached the Twins with the bargain. So many athletes are insulted if they aren't paid what their comparable peers are paid. Perkins begged to be underpaid.
I've been around him since the start of his career and these two things are true:
-I've never seen a local athlete so completely transform his personality and career path.
-Perkins is genuine. He lives in Lakeville year round. He wants to play for the Twins his entire career. He recognizes that he's lucky to be playing a game making tens of millions of dollars. He recognizes that if he isn't stupid with the money he and his family will always have more than they need.
Perkins is good with his teammates. He's good with Twins employees. He's good with writers. He kills time in the offseason hanging out with his old coaches at the University of Minnesota, and by dropping by Target Field to hang out with the media relations department.
He's also the latest prominent Twin to defy the beach-body ethic of modern sports. Perkins has a gut. So did Kirby Puckett and Kent Hrbek. Perkins is in pretty good company in all kinds of ways.
I'll be doing Sunday Sports Talk on 1500ESPN from 10-noon from Fort Myers while Scott Korzenowski hosts from the Twin Cities.
I'm also on WJON in St. Cloud at 7:15 every weekday morning, and on 1500ESPN (1500 AM) in the Twin Cities at about 12:15 every weekday. You can follow me on Twitter at @Souhanstrib.
Had a long talk with Justin Morneau that provided the basis for today's column. I couldn't fit all the good stuff into the newspaper, so here are Morneua's responses on a few other topics of interest:
Do you leave the Twins bearing a few regrets?
Morneau: ``Yeah. A World Series would have been the No. 1 thing. We got to theplayoffs and couldn't find a way to get it done. It seemed like a key player was injured every time we got there, and when you're matching up with a team like the Yankees that has so much depth, you need every guy that you have. In '06 we're missing Frankie (Liriano), who was the best pitcher in the game at the time. And then in '09 and '10 I was hurt, and who knows what happens? I couldn't control the injuries. It's part of playing the game. That's something you wish didn't happen but that's part of the game.''
What was it like to be traded and wind up walking into the Pirates' dugout during a game?
Morneau: Crazy. Crazy. Really weird. For a few innings I looked out there, being on a different team, it took a little while to settle in. Once I made a few plays and atook a couple of at-bats, it started to sink in, and I started to realize it's still baseball. Different team, but still baseball. It's odd. At the same time, it was exciting.
Can you see yourself playing for the Twins again?
Morneau: I'll cross that bridge when I get to it. That's too hard to answer that right now.
What was your favorite moment as a Twin? Maybe the game-winning home run off Detroit reliever Joel Zumaya in 2006?
Morneau: That one went through my head. The favorite one for me would probably be sitting in the dome the last day of the season in 2006, watching the game in Kansas City up on the screen, when nobody left the stadium. That's not something you could ever script or plan. That just kind of happened. That was something we all shared with the fans and our teammates. That was insanity. That was probably my favorite thing I can think of.
Did you consider retiring when you were dealing with concussion symptoms?
Morneau: I had to think about it, but to say it was considered, no. To say it was close, no. But was it a realistic possibility? Maybe. It's hard to say. Going through it, it felt like I wasn't getting better. If I physically wasn't able to go out there, to be cleared by a doctor to play…
Will you still live in the Twin Cities?
Morneau: Well, we live in Arizona during the winter. Corey Koskie came back. It might turn out to be a good thing. You go somewhere else and see what it's like, and you realize how great the Twin Cities are.
You've started hitting homers like your old self in the last month. Have you found your swing?
Morneau: My swing felt more like my swing. It's hard to put a finger on it. Those pitches I was missing or popping up early in the year, I felt like I was squaring up. I hit them in some of the right ballparks to hit them in, too. I just hope it continues for this month and next month and we have some fun.
Do you have any reassessed career goals?
Morneau: Winning. Just winning. Hopefully I get to play a few more years and enjoy wherever I'm at. Right now this is a good place to be.
I'll be on 1500ESPN at noon tomorrow from Milwaukee. Sunday on the station we'll have the Gardenhire show from 9:30-10, then Sunday Sports Talk with me, Scott Korzenowski and Tom Linnemann from 10-noon. I'll be calling in from the Vikings game in Detroit.
Remember the good ol' days, when Twins fans could just blame everything on hitting coach Joe Vavra?
Guess what: The 2013 Twins are even worse offensively than the 2012 Twins.
Replacing Vavra with Tom Brunansky hasn't helped. I'm not saying Brunansky isn't good at his job. I'm saying that hitting coaches don't create good hitters.
The Twins struck out 30 times in the three-game series against the Royals.
They've struck out 65 times in their last six games.
They haven't scored more than four runs in a game since July 23, when they had 10 at Anaheim.
With Cris Carter heading to the Hall of Fame, a couple of my favorite memories of covering him:
-At the begining of his career with the Vikings, we talked for an hour about his struggles in life and with the Eagles. Then he told me, ``If I like what you write, we'll get along fine. If I don't, I"ll punch you in the eye.''
I didn't get punched.
-During his last season with the Vikings, I asked how he had maintained his talent. He said he has assembled an entourage: A chiropractor, trainer, masseuse, physical therapist, chef, nutritionist...and about five other people.
He was one of the most dedicated and divisive athletes I've ever covered. A lot of his teammates couldn't stand him because he could be vain, and arrogant, and outspoken. Noone questioned his drive or his toughness.
Wrote about the Twins' pathetic effort and pathetic roster for the Friday paper.
I'll be on 1500ESPN at noon tomorrow. Scott Korzenowsky and I will run the Ron Gardenhire Show and Sunday Sports Talk from 9:30-noon on Sunday from the 3M Championship.

"Monotone should read as paper book"
It is too monotone reading bullet points
It has great content but need some head out
"Great book even for long time managers"
Lots of tricks and tips and how to become great at observing and feeling the situation.
"Great inspiration and practical"
Great concise, a book I can listen over and over again on my run in the morning.
The Law of Attraction, the Secret
"My best book this year"
The narration is great and the story fantastic. She expose herself to the real world and exactly what each business women is facing. I relate to each story and also got some fantastic insight on what not to do !
All the funny stories about managing husband and children as well as taking stands in negotiating salary.
Do what you feel is best for the business take insight from others but don't take a mentor !
"Even better listening the second time"
The narrator is very good and the story to remember. I love the concise way he describe business and success along with failures to avoid.
The stories and examples of real life.
The chocolate candy cost cutting is so true and enlighten the book.
Made me want to change our business
Great book from Michaels Materson
"Always great and up beat"
Another great book.I love Mike Dooley's book. He is alway up beat and passionate about his message. There are some repeat between books but you get a lot out of insight and tools to use.
"Bad narration and I still don't know the 40 days"
I cannot imagine anyone agreeing to this performance. I have tried to listen to this short book a few times now and cannot get through it. I can't find out the steps to this 40 days miracles, All the stories are so depressing and bad.
"Very good insight into relationships"
Very good insight into relationships but a little too dramatic. There are many tricks that will help any relationship to get better however it gets to a point where it is way to deep, too dramatic and almost painful to hear.
"Just average"
Good stories but nothing that stroked me or inspired. I already forgot most of the content.
Give listener points to remember. One, two, three
"Great tips and inspiration for all women"
I am a big fan of Ivanka. Her book was a great reflection of my work environment where as Ivanka very few women are. She provided great insight on her life and the support of her parents. Even at a young age she provides great insight for all women. Continue the good work.
Her father's book, think big and kick ass
It is not where you from but who you are

Interesting, seeing as people tend to forget that the PM himself insisted on a pay cut to set an example.
Interesting, seeing as people tend to forget that the PM himself insisted on a pay cut to set an example.
38,045 earn over £100,000
1,000 earn over £200,000
9,187 earn more than PM
10 GPs earn over £300,000
1 GP in Hillingdon PCT earns £475,000
17 teachers earn more than PM
331 BBC managers earn more than £100,000
362 local council employees earn more than PM
Thats quite something!
Which is funny, because the likes of us lowly technicians, pay has not gone up except with inflation in, what, 15 years?The government has already revealed that pay for the top 5% of earners in the public sector has risen by 51% in the past 10 years.
The jobs I see coming up now are the same salary at least 5-7 years ago when i started job hunting (in some cases inflation has had no affect, and they haven't gone up!), yet the gap from 'technician' pay to 'manager' pay increases every year.
The figure for the BBC Managers is staggering - 331 managers on £100k + a year
How many managers does the BBC have? Does this represent 1% of its managers or 90%? What percentage of managers in (say) Tesco are on more than £100k?
It's loads more money than I get but it doesn't meant to say it's wrong. What we should be looking at is why some people get paid so little even though they do a fantastic job rather than just dragging everyone down to the lowest possible salary (because that's where this looks like it's going - it won't be "well, we can take the money we saved on the top salaries and give a pay rise lower down")
The question of how much should someone be paid is a difficult one to answer.
As a general rule, a manager should earn more than those he manages. Firstly because he is responsible for not just his own work, but ultimately for the work of those below them.
As a result the more levels you add in, the higher the person at the top will earn.
So in the line we work in there are two main tree's; the teachers and the support line.
TA < Teacher < Head of Dept/Year < Deputy Head < Assistant Head < Headteacher
Technician < Department manager < Support team manager < Assistant Head < Headteacher
this isn't set in stone, some will have more or less tiers, but that is generally how it works.
As a rough guess, the salary banding for a role is about 10% of the base salary. So if you start a job earning 20k, you'll finish earning about 22-23k at the top of your salary band. Usually, from one role to the next level up will be 2-3 grades higher to allow for flexibility, so after the 20k starter, the next level of manager is about 28k, then next up will be about 40k and so on and so on.
So for the BBC to have a lot of managers at 100k+ is not a far stretch if they conform to that general principle of salary banding.
How often does the boss earn just 1-2k more than the technician? usually the gap is about 30-50% higher.
Doesn't the support line stop at Bursar though? Headteacher seems a bit of a stretch for someone with no teaching qualifications.
BBC News - Public Sector pay
I can't help but think that over a quarter of a million pounds annually for being the Chief Police Officer in the Fraud Office is borderline fraud already...
£260k+ for the Works & Pensions IT director as well, which has got to be a pretty cushty number - it's not like anyone expects government IT to work anyway!
1 GP in Hillingdon PCT earns £475,000
17 teachers earn more than PM
That GP is in my PCT and it infuriates me because there are so many shortfalls within the healthcare offered within this borough, and as for the teachers - if that includes headteachers, then our principal is part of that statistic which infuriates me even more!! However, we are an Academy.
Perhaps we should have the system like the US has where no public sector employee can earn more than the president (circa $400,000 (£256,962) as of 2 years ago, not including expenses)?
I'm not sure if they still have that system, but it sounds fair to me.
the figures that i'd be interested to know is how many private sector contractors were paid six-figure salaries last year for working on public sector contracts/projects ['m thinking big IT and mgmt consultancy predominantly]. That spend comes out of the public coffers, whether it's a local govt. project or another public sector body buying into a new system of working or upgrading/implementing a proprietary system.
whatever the merits/reasoning for paying some public sector manager high five figure or low six figure salaries, atleast they are paying top rate of tax on those 'earnings'. A self-employed contractor/subcontractor whose pay isn't subject to the same media scrutiny probably doesn't have as high a tax buren on the six-figures sums their services command. But it's the flying under the radar aspect which is most galling, while we become indignant about a comparatively small number of 40% tax paying PAYE managers, the IT and business consultant bods are quietly raking it in. at taxpayers expense!!

If you have ever fancied having your photos put into a presidential library, then you have four months to send your shots to the Foreigner's View competition.
The contest, organized by the President Boris Yeltsin Library in St. Petersburg, is open to amateurs and professionals and a select few will go into the library's electronic vaults. It is not only aimed at foreigners who live in Russia but at Russians who live abroad.
The library has seven nominations to send photos in with an overall theme of "The strength of diplomacy," a perhaps apt theme in a year when tensions have been high between Russia and much of the world. Some of the categories include "Listening to the language of nature," "Man and the digital age," and "Brazil: Distant and close."
The nine winners will receive a digital photo frame, a diploma at an award ceremony in St. Petersburg and will have their photo turned into a poster. They will also know that the library will have filed away their shots for posterity.
The competition is now in its fifth year. More than 4,000 entries were received last year.
The Yeltsin library was created in 2007 as an electronic repository rather than as a traditional library and is housed in the Synod building in St. Petersburg.
See foreignview.prlib.ru for more details about the competition. Entries are accepted until Oct. 1.
