It would be reasonable to expect the market to take a breather
today after three days of gains that has pushed it to within
striking distance of the year's high reached in the spring. The
gains are hard to justify given the absence of any accompanying
corporate or economic news, though we did see some sign of life in
the labor market last Friday after months of disappointments.
This morning's favorable productivity and unit labor cost data for
the second quarter also appears to confirm some positive movement
on that front. But the market seems to be betting that the Fed will
come through with its magic wand despite these signs of life in the
labor market.
Nobody is ready to be on the wrong side of the hoped-for Fed
action. We may see some early indications of the Fed's thinking
from the central bank's annual Jackson Hole huddle later this
month. Optimism has been steadily improving on the European issue
as well, though the overall run of recent economic readings from
that region are painting a fairly dismal picture. This morning's
growth downgrade from the Bank of England is another sign that the
Euro-zone fiscal woes are taking a heavy toll on economic
In earnings updates, we have solid reports from

) this morning, while
) results after the close on Tuesday mirrored what we have
repeatedly seen this reporting season - an earnings beat, but a
revenue miss. As of this morning, 65.3% of the 435 S&P 500
companies that have reported results have come ahead of earnings
expectations, with a median surprise of 2.7%.
Roughly the same proportion of companies (66.4%) came out with
positive earnings surprises in the first quarter, but the median
surprise was at 3.6%. What is materially weaker this time around
relative to other recent quarters is performance on the revenue
side, with 61.9% of the companies coming short of revenue
It is hard to envision the market continuing to make gains in the
absence of fundamental support - something has to give. The market
has been defying problematic signs in recent day. But the party
eventually comes to an end - always does.

I would like to brew an Oktoberfest, but I'm not set up for lagering. Is there an Oktoberfest Ale? Where can I find a recipe or kit? Is there is not an Oktoberfest, is there something similar that you can recommend? Thank you.
use the search field at the top right of the screen!
I brewed the True Brew Oktoberfest last year as an ale and it was "okay." It needs time to age and taste better. I tasted one 6 months after the rest had been consumed and it was 10x better than the rest. I know this means nothing to you now, but it is good advice for next year. I mean, don't get me wrong - it was still drinkable and "good" but I thought it lacked flavor and was borderline boring.

"I got SO many compliments on this announcement for my son. It is so colorful and playful, perfect for our baby boy! I love it so much, it couldn't have been any more perfect."
"I love the way these announcements came out. We got the special pearl finish with the scalloped edges which gave it such a special look. They are very impressive. I wish that Tiny Prints would make a frame to hold a sample of this uniquely shaped announcement. I want to frame it and put it up in our house."
"Came out beautifully and have received lots of compliments already. Pictures look beautiful. Asked for a custom change to the back layout and was designed perfectly by the reviewer. Printed and shipped faster than promised."
"Looks awesome. Only thing is you can't read the white letters. I could read them fine on my computer but when I received them it looked different. :( Not terrible. Overall a beautiful announcement. If you order just be sure your background isn't too light or the white letters will be hard to read."
"A few years ago I purchased birth announcements through tiny prints for my first son. I was so happy with the results I ordered through them again. They did not disappoint. This card was exactly what I was looking for. It was super easy to personalize. I love the quality of the heavy cardstock, it's durable and will last for years. My friends and family members who received this announcement were thrilled and complimented me on the quality and design. Many of them still have our first sons announcement still hanging in their houses. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a quality birth announcement."

Terry, I have no reason to not believe that Thomas Butler and Sarah Lingo are the parents of Robinson Lingo Butler. It appears that Robinson Lingo may have been killed in the Rev. War as he made a will before leaving Snow Hill, MD naming only his siblings, no mention of parents. He never returned so it is thought he was killed.
My work on the Lingo family has just begun, I have had a lot of unanswered questions about my early Butler family therefore when I saw the will of Robinson Lingo Butler I felt that if I can solve who this family is maybe I will have a break through in the Butlers, that hasn't happened yet. for more on the Lingo family email me. <firstname.lastname@example.com>

Answer from: Coolbeach
If you like. Coolbeach you can change photo
Answer from: Libby
I have mine like that. I change me clothes often. I have hair but my friend profile doesn't. It's because you changed your clothes and the game is taking the time to change it to your current look. Don't fret it will change to you're current look in a week or two.
Answer from: ViN97
They are using hack or modded version for pou which has edited with free coins, edited outfits wigs ect. and free gray body color and also adult and baby potion and a lot of coins. If you want mod pou just search in youtube for example "pou mod 1.1.40 version" and just click in the lower part theres a link to download the app but the modded app cannot be updated through playstore.

YES. We NEED a ticker tape parade, with floats, food trucks and shut down streets with OutKast, the entire Dungeon Family and the Morris Brown Marching Band Alumni leading the parade all the way to Centennial. YAAASSSS
I've lived in the West End for 4 years now, before then I lived in Capitol View Manor, Grant Park, Decatur and Ashby. Actually in all of these areas I've had not a single problem - and that's been over the past 13 years. What I have seen is neighbors who work everyday, some elderly and veterans who stay home, and in general communicate, get along, are involved in their local NPUs and look out for one another. Crime happens, its not specific to any area. Generalizing and spreading all the rhetoric criminalizing entire regions of citizens is quite honestly classist, racist, and stupid. I'm pretty sure if the focus was on meth labs, hydroponic labs and trigger happy NRA members, one could make a generalized statement about the lack of safety of those areas as well. But we wouldn't like that would we?
Generalizations aside, its nice to see that there are infrastructure improvements for ALL of Atlantans and not just the areas convenient, hip or "sufficiently gentrified".
He's not clueless, its just that Georgia politicians are heavily invested in billion dollar road construction bids and the public interest groups from that industry. They are more invested in their NIMBY mindset and pander to a demographic that has a phobia of others of a different color or socioeconomic status than them.
To anyone who really thinks that mass transit would not have drastically changed last week's debacle what do you think happens in New York or Boston? People take transit and they still get to make it to their families.
- students and adults old enough could have taken MARTA home
- Parents could have used transit to get younger children
- Thousands of citizens would not have had to sleep in cars and businesses, worse case scenario if we had a more fleshed out transit you could walk or city trucks could focus on clearing roadways so transit buses could shuttle people to transit stations.
But nope...let's build more roads. Pure genius. . .
NOW can we get some serious enhancements to mass transit please? We hear endlessly how "inefficient" MARTA is, but the DOT can't even throw a damn box of salt on the ground! SMH
Guess that ^ doesn't matter because they're FUCKING AWESOME!
I agree with Portland's mayor only in part - the real "roadblock" (pun intended) is Georgia's Department of Transportation (and legislature's hostile relationship with MARTA) anti-mass transit/pro-road construction stance. IF it weren't for that, Atlanta would have been well on its way if not already ahead of Portland and other cities. And THAT probably has more to do with generational flux and flow of conservatism, nimby, white flight, etc. than the actual infrastructure challenges. You can throw up as many light-rail, bike trail, beltlines, streetcars etc. but if the purpose is to only benefit portions of the city's population depending on who or what that population looks like - you will always have under-serviced and undeveloped gaps in infrastructure.
Atlanta needs expansion of mass transit with at least 1 additional east-west line SOUTH of 20 and another NORTH of 20. From there each stop should have connecting shorter distance light-rail options that go north/south and are laid out in a way that easily connects or leaves minimal walking distance to pre-existing bus routes.

Taiwan-based tech industry publication DigiTimes reported Friday that Samsung plans to unveil its new tablet PC in September. The report said that Samsung decided it would not make a 10-inch model, to compete with Apple's 9.7-inch iPad, but would instead release a device with a 7-inch display.
That size, sources allegedly indicated, was chosen to compete with a 7-inch "mini iPad" that Apple is rumored to release.
"Since Samsung skipped the 10-inch panel format and jumped directly to 7-inch panel, the sources believe the company is actually aiming at Apple's upcoming 7-inch iPad for competition and not the current model," the report said.
The publication has repeatedly said that Apple plans to offer a new, smaller iPad with a screen size of 7 inches, and other reports have indicated the same. Earlier this month, the Chinese-language newspaper Economic Daily News indicated that the device would have a weight of 500 grams, reduced from the current hardware's 700 grams.
Apple severs ties with developer of tablets
Surface Ink, a small design firm based in Silicon Valley, has lost Apple as a customer, according to The New York Times, after the company publicly showed off a 12.1-inch tablet prototype. The company's relationship with Apple is unknown, but SurfaceInk indicated that the parties had "gone in separate directions."
Apple decided to move on, the report said, because SurfaceInk's latest business moves apparently "unsettled" the iPad maker. It indicated that SurfaceInk's showing of a 12.1-inch tablet prototype in June at an electronics trade show was enough to shoo Apple away.
"The device was meant to showcase SurfaceInk's design capabilities to potential clients... (but) Apple viewed those capabilities as a potential threat," the report said.

Top 10 color laser multifunction printers
These efficient workhorses combine color laser printing, scanning, copying, and, frequently, faxing
These small office all-in-ones from Brother, Canon, Dell, HP, Konica Minolta, Oki, and Xerox range in price from less than $500 to more than $1,200, depending on extra features such as larger input/output trays and duplexing. All handle printing, scanning, and copying in paper sizes up to 8.5 by 14 inches. Some offer fax and Wi-Fi connectivity. You'll find significant differences in print quality, especially for color graphics, and in printing speeds, which range from 8 to 22 or pages per minute for text. Finally, also be aware of toner costs; expensive toner can quickly turn a bargain price on its head.

My great grandfather was also Vesey Flecknell. His Son, Hedley Flecknell was born of Lilly Fountain on 14 Feb 1900. He and his wife, Ellen Boylan, immigrated from England in 1927 to the province of New Brunswick, in Canada. They had 6 children: Vesey and Neil Flecknell, twins, and Judy Flecknell were born in England. James Matthew Flecknell, Hedley Flecknell (jr) and Anne Flecknell were born in New Brunswick. My father is Matthew.
Through other searches I have found two other names listed as sons of Vesey. They are Fred and Horace Flecknell. Have you heard of any of these?
When reading the threads...I too have heard that our name was decendent from Germany. Interesting.

Tagging VLANs is the way we do it. We have about 20 VLANs. But we don't use default VLAN out of choice.
At my schools the generic network is vlan 1, servers and managment vlan 20 and wireless vlan 100. right now they are static vlans. We are a 100% hp procurve shop. 5406 core, 3500ly edge
I could use some advice on "laptop mobile lab carts". we purchased 8 and they have our ap installed in them. so a teacher can check one out, take it to class plug in the carts network jack and power, off they go.
so inorder for the ap in the cart to get vlan 100, i either tag all ports on all switches in vlan 100 or use gvrp (read this is a possible nightmare) or other (not sure of any other option). i don't see an issue with tagging everything vlan 100, destops will continue to operate on vlan 1 and ignore the tagged traffic. But does anyone have any other suggestion?
Tagging VLANs is the way we do it. We have about 20 VLANs. But we don't use default VLAN out of choice.
GVRP should do what you want but the ap has to actively participate in the GVRP process.
We use GVRP across all our access switches and it makes it very easy to move links around. Sadly the downside is you have to be very careful when enabling as without planning it can easily mess up a lot of stuff! iSCSI, Jumbo Frames etc...
Another alternative is to use an access port that can tunnel wireless data back to a controller. That way it doesn't matter what vlan the ap connects on, it will just forward the traffic to the controller for vlan assignment and forwarding onto the network.
We have just installed a new ruckus wifi network, so are you saying not to tag any vlans to do with ruckus and SSIDs and to just assign the VLAN on the SSID within the controller software, even if the SSIDs are on different subnets?

JEE goof up leads to cancellation of IIT admissions A silent change in cut-off of marks for all categories has led to cancellation of many admissions in 16 IITs and 1 ISM spread over the country.
Candidates with physical disabilities were required to report to zonal IITs on July 4. Ronit Bansal, a candidate from Chandigarh was allotted seat in mechanical engineering in IIT Delhi. When he went for reporting in IIT Roorkee (Zonal IIT), he was astonished when told that his seat was cancelled due to change in cut-off.
Another candidate from Barnala, Mohit Singla, met with same fate. He secured 146th rank in Persons with Physical Disabilities category and was declared successful in both rounds i.e. JEE (Mains) and JEE (Advanced). Mohit had secured 394 marks but was declared ineligible. This sent shivers down his spine. Read complete story of 20 percentile controversy

Made in City of Hope: T cells – enlisting the immune system to beat cancer
The body's immune system is usually adept at attacking outside invaders such as bacteria and viruses. But because cancer originates from the body's own cells, the immune system can fail to see it as foreign. As a result, the body's most powerful ally can remain largely idle against cancer as the disease progresses. Immunotherapy in general seeks to spur the immune system to action, helping the body fight cancer. One type of immunotherapy —T cell therapy — reprograms immune cells known as T cells to recognize and destroy cancer cells.
A wave of clinical trials
Normally, T cells attack bacteria and other infectious agents. In T cell therapy, T cells are isolated from a sample of the patient's blood, then genetically engineered to seek out and attack a specific cancer. Researchers grow millions of these engineered T cells in the laboratory. The engineered cells are reinfused into the patient, where they go to work eliminating cancer.
Stephen J. Forman, M.D., the Francis & Kathleen McNamara Distinguished Chair in Hematology and Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation, has long pursued breakthrough treatments for hematologic cancers and blood-related disorders, and heads up City of Hope's bone marrow transplant program. Under his direction, a wave of T cell clinical trials is underway, all of which are moving the treatment out of the lab and directly to patients. » Continue Reading
13-year-old leukemia survivor has one true hero: her brother
In February 2003, when she was only 16 months old, Maya Gallardo was diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and, to make matters much worse, pneumonia.
The pneumonia complicated what was already destined to be grueling treatment regimen. To assess the extent of her illness, Maya had to endure a spinal tap procedure; the pneumonia meant it had to be done without anesthesia. Her parents could do nothing but watch, and try to comfort her.
The spinal tap revealed such severe leukemia that doctors at the children's hospital where she was being treated said she would likely live only a few weeks.
Nonetheless, they stabilized her, and began treating her with chemotherapy. Normally, chemotherapy is not given to pneumonia patients, but because Maya's leukemia was so advanced, she had no option but to undergo simultaneous treatment for both. If the chemotherapy went well, she would need a bone marrow transplant, the only option for curing her AML. » Continue Reading
City of Hope launches institute focused on hematologic malignancies
Cancers of the blood and immune system are considered to be among the most difficult-to-treat cancers. A world leader in the treatment of blood cancers, City of Hope is now launching an institute specifically focused on treating people with lymphoma, leukemia and myeloma, as well as other serious blood and bone marrow diseases.
Through this institute, laboratory and physician investigators will expand their work and develop new therapies and possible cures for leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma. The Hematologic Malignancies and Stem Cell Transplantation Institute at City of Hope is built upon a foundation that was created by City of Hope's Stephen J. Forman, M.D., the Francis & Kathleen McNamara Distinguished Chair in Hematology and Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation at City of Hope, and the leader of the institution's Hematologic Malignancies Program, and Steven T. Rosen, M.D., the provost and chief scientific officer at City of Hope.
Both are known worldwide for the vision, discipline and compassion with which they approach some of the most complex and difficult diseases that afflict men, women and children. Both are committed to continuing to make scientific breakthroughs while caring for patients in the uniquely patient-centered environment for which City of Hope is known.
"Over the years we have seen the development of therapies that, had we known then what we know now, could have saved more lives. The institute will create a collaborative culture of research and individualized care that will accelerate our research breakthroughs for the patients and families who come to us for help," Forman said. » Continue Reading
Advice from Rob: How to overcome anxiety during a hospital stay
Rob Darakjian was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at just 19 years old. He began chemotherapy and was in and out of the hospital for four months. After his fourth round of treatment, he received a bone marrow transplantation from an anonymous donor. Today, he's cancer free.
In his first post, he shared his story and explained what NOT to do when you're depressed and have cancer. In his second post, he explained what cancer patients SHOULD do if they're depressed. Here, he offers seven tips on how patients can confront cancer and anxiety.
How to ease anxiety:
Listen, watch: I find this technique to be particularly helpful when I'm experiencing anxiety at almost any level. I call it "listen, watch" because that's what I do: I try and place myself in the present moment by paying attention to what I can see and what I can hear. Try to pick up on everything you can hear, from your own breathing, to the faint sound of conversation somewhere outside. Then, after awhile turn to a different sense, say sight, and just look around your physical environment. » Continue Reading
Advice from Rob: What NOT to do when you're depressed, with cancer
Rob Darakjian was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia at just 19 years old. He began chemotherapy and was in and out of the hospital for four months. After his fourth round of treatment, he received a bone marrow transplantation from an anonymous donor. Today, he's cancer free.
Darakjian's story has a happy ending, but getting there was a tremendous struggle. He suffered from severe depression and anxiety, which prevented him from enjoying any type of activity or experiencing any type of pleasure. Cancer made him feel hopeless, and he found it hard to get out of bed, often spending his days and nights in his room, crying.
His experience isn't unusual. One in four people with cancer suffer from clinical depression, but for adolescents and young adults with cancer, the isolation can feel especially overwhelming.
With support from his family and medical professionals, Darakjian was able to overcome his battle with depression and anxiety. He's now a college student at the University of San Francisco studying philosophy and political science. Here, in the first of a series, he shares his secrets on surviving anxiety and depression while fighting cancer.
What cancer patients should NOT to do when they're depressed:
Childhood cancer: Know the 12 warning signs
Childhood cancer survival rates have increased dramatically over the past 40 years. More than 80 percent of children with cancer now survive five years or more, which is a tremendous feat.
Despite the survival rate increase, cancer continues to be the No. 1 disease killer and second-leading cause of death in children. In 2014, nearly 1,400 children under the age of 15 are expected to die from cancer in the United States and about 10,450 children will be diagnosed with some form of cancer.
Although there are no widely recommended screening tests for childhood cancers, many cancers can be found early. That's why it's important to be aware of the signs and symptoms for some of the most common childhood cancers, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphoma, brain tumors, neuroblastoma and Wilm's tumor. » Continue Reading
'Mini' stem cell transplant: What is it and how does it treat cancer?
Although a stem cell transplant can be a lifesaving procedure for people diagnosed with a blood cancer or blood disorder, the standard transplant may not be appropriate for all patients. This is because the conditioning regimen (the intensive chemotherapy and/or radiation treatments preceding the transplant) is very taxing on the body, and certain patients — such as those who are older — cannot tolerate the toxicity associated with the process.
But at City of Hope, this does not rule them out of a potentially curative transplant, thanks to our care team's specialization in nonmyeloablative transplants (also known as a reduced intensity, or "mini," transplant.)
Here, Stephen J. Forman, M.D., the Francis & Kathleen McNamara Distinguished Chair in Hematology and Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation, explains how this relatively new procedure works.
What is a nonmyeloablative stem cell transplant and how does it work to treat cancer?
Nonmyeloablative stem cell transplant is a way of doing a transplant that is not as intensive as traditional transplant regimens. It uses lower doses of drugs than a standard transplant but still enables us to engraft stem cells from a donor. It then works through utilizing the donor stem cells, which builds an immune reaction against the residual cancer cells — hopefully eliminating the disease and preventing it from returning.
Because it is less intensive, nonmyeloablative transplants are generally used for patients who are older or otherwise too frail to tolerate a traditional transplant, and this procedure has allowed us to perform curative transplants in a greater range of people. » Continue Reading
For bone marrow transplant patients, outcomes and data matter
Nearly four decades ago, City of Hope began its bone marrow transplant program. Its first transplant reunion celebration was a single patient and his donor, also his brother.
This year, City of Hope welcomed hundreds of hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients to the annual bone marrow transplant/HCT reunion. Since the program's inception, City of Hope has performed more than 12,000 hematopoietic cell transplants, for patients ranging in age from less than 1 year old to more than 79 years old.
The reunion of bone marrow transplant patients, one of the highlights of the year for City of Hope, underscores the close relationships that City of Hope caregivers have with their patients, even those who have been free of their cancer for decades. The outcomes for the program underscore the importance of those relationships and the high level of expertise provided here: They are among the very best in the nation. » Continue Reading
Adoptive T cell therapy: Harnessing the immune system to fight cancer
Immunotherapy — using one's immune system to treat a disease — has been long lauded as the "magic bullet" of cancer treatments, one that can be more effective than the conventional therapies of surgery, radiation or chemotherapy. One specific type of immunotherapy, called adoptive T cell therapy, is demonstrating promising results for blood cancers and may have potential against other types of cancers, too.
Here, Leslie Popplewell, M.D., associate clinical professor and staff physician in City of Hope's Department of Hematology & Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation, explains what this treatment entails.
What is adoptive T cell therapy and how does it work to treat cancer?
Every day, our immune system works to recognize and destroy abnormal, mutated cells. But the abnormal cells that eventually become cancer are the ones that slip past this defense system. The idea behind this therapy is to make immune cells (specifically, T lymphocytes) sensitive to cancer-specific abnormalities so that malignant cells can be targeted and attacked throughout the body.
Who would be good candidates for this type of therapy? » Continue Reading
In acute myeloid leukemia treatment, infighting just might be positive
Elizabeth Budde, M.D., Ph.D., wants to encourage infighting. She aims to turn the immune system on itself — to the benefit of patients with acute myeloid leukemia, or AML.
AML arises when abnormal white blood cells grow out of control, amassing in the bone marrow and interfering with normal blood cell development. Blood stem cell transplants are the only hope of cure for most patients with AML; however, many patients eventually see their cancer return.
Budde wants to give patients with relapsed AML a fighting chance by giving them modified white blood cells that attack their malignant cousins.
Her work is garnering increased attention. Budde, an assistant professor in the Department of Hematology & Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation at City of Hope, has been chosen as The Jake Wetchler Foundation for Innovative Pediatric Cancer Research-Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation Clinical Investigator. The accompanying $450,000 grant will support her studies for the next three years.

By PAUL KATZEFF, INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY
AllianceBernstein Discovery Growth Fund aims for small- and midcap stocks whose long-term potential for earnings growth tops what the Street expects.
Portfolio manager Bruce Aronow and his three co-managers see that difference between their view and Wall Street's as an investment opportunity.
Based on its Jan. 31 sector weightings, the $1.1 billion fund sees most of those surprises coming from industrial stocks, in which it has invested 27% of assets, consumer cyclicals 24% and technology 18%.
View Enlarged Image
Lumber Liquidators (LL) was one of its consumer cyclicals.
The fund began its current stake in November. It boosted its stake between November and December.
The stock has had six straight quarters of two- and three-digit earnings growth. That follows four quarters of declining EPS.
On Monday, the discount flooring retailer cleared its 68.38 entry on nearly double its usual volume in a three-weeks-tight pattern.
Sales have accelerated in three of the past four quarters.
Better-than-expected Q4 results triggered several rising earnings estimates among analysts following the stock.
Genesee & Wyoming (GWR) is one of the fund's industrials. Discovery Growth's stake dates back to June 2009. Recently, the fund boosted its position in December and again in January.
Shares are up 95% since their June 4 low.
The freight rail operator's traffic volume nearly doubled in February. That was due largely to its recent takeover of RailAmerica. Carloads of coke and coal more than doubled.
Trimmed Back
SolarWinds (SWI) is one of the fund's tech names.
The fund trimmed its stake in its two most recent monthly disclosure periods.
Despite head winds, the maker of Web-based IT management software is growing in Europe.
The company earned 36 cents a share in Q4. That topped the consensus estimate for profit of 33 cents. Sales of $73.5 million also topped estimates, which were $70.7 million.
The strong results stemmed largely from stronger-than-expected Q4 federal government sales.
The company has a three-year average growth rate of 31%.
The stock is retesting its buy point of a late-stage base.
In other sectors, the fund reopened a previously closed position in Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR) in October. It boosted its stake in December and in January.
Shares are up 225% from their July 23 low. But they're still less than 50% off their September 2011 peak.
Green Mountain, which makes the Keurig single-cup brewer, recently announced a deal with food and personal care giant Unilever to package Lipton tea for Green Mountain's single-serve machines.
Green Mountain was hurt a year ago by Starbucks' (SBUX) entry into the single-cup market.
The fund was up 10.15% this year going into Tuesday. Its midcap growth rivals tracked by Morningstar Inc. averaged a 9.29% gain. The S&P 500 was up 9.33%.
Over the past three years the fund's average annual gain was 19.17% vs. 12.23% for its peer group and 12.37% for the big-cap bogey.
Stocks staged a negative reversal Friday, a day after doing the exact opposite. The Nasdaq settled for a 0.2% gain after being up 1.1% early. The S&P 500 pocketed 0.5% of its early 0.9% pop. The IBD 50 ended flat. Volume ran higher across the board. Friday was an expirations day, which tends to ...
The network solutions industry group has been climbing the ranks of IBD's 197 groups and produced a number of new highs in Friday's session. F5 Networks (NASDAQ:FFIV) touched a new high and is in buying range past a 128.40 cup-base buy point. Earnings growth has accelerated the past three quarters, ...
Remember that new issue you bought awhile back this year when it was breaking out of a first-stage IPO base? Up 7% in heavy volume with solid fundamentals? A thing of beauty. But instead of rising even more, the stock reversed in higher volume. Then it fell again. And again. Before you knew it, you ...
Credit card networks will go along with mobile payment apps that preserve the status quo, with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) Pay, Google Wallet and phone-company-backed Softcard having the inside track, Moody's Investors Service says in a new report. American Express (NYSE:AXP), MasterCard (NYSE:MA) and Visa ...
Enterprise wireless up-and-comer Aruba Networks beat Wall Street revenue and profit views late Thursday as fiscal first-quarter revenue jumped 29% over the prior year to $207.8 million and earnings rose 62.5% to 26 cents per share. Revenue came in nearly $5 million more than analysts had expected. ...
U.S. stock mutual funds advanced 0.41% in scoring a fifth straight week of gains, according to Lipper Inc. data. It's their longest winning streak since a six-week romp that ended in early August last year. The latest gain put the average U.S. stock fund up 6.75% for the year. Funds that track the ...
December is often the month when investors' thoughts turn to tax planning. But if you start by the end of November, you'll have another tactic to use. A key strategy is to take unrealized losses. They can offset gains and reduce your 2014 tax bill. Any net capital losses will give you a tax ...
The European economy will continue to be sluggish in 2015 leading to the potential for political unrest, said the experts at Schroders, the giant British asset manager. However, European equities should do well in spite of this. Meanwhile, Japan should see benefits from a weaker yen, but this will ...
You wouldn't know it by looking at this year's returns, but the performances of the average emerging-market and foreign-stock mutual funds have run well ahead of the S&P 500's in the past 15 years. Investors in the average foreign-stock fund would have turned a $10,000 investment made on Sept. ...
The dividend mutual funds with the best 15-year average annual returns aren't among those bearing the highest yield. In fact, five of the top seven in performance yield less than the S&P 500's 1.87%. SunAmerica Focused Dividend Strategy Fund as of Sept. 30 had about 23% of its $8.5 billion ...

"I'm a big surfer. I grew up in Australia and I could surf before I could walk. Coming out here, there's actually really great waves in New York. I'm such a pussy when it comes to cold weather, so I don't really surf in the winter, but my surf buddy, Tracy Feith, moved to LA a couple months ago so now I stay with him and surf when I'm there. He produced and designed all these incredible hand-printed surfboards. This one is my favorite. Tracy is an incredible surfer, but he's also just an incredible person and he's super creative. I love my time when we get to go surfing together."

Not necessarily!
"…data on its own is just numbers, and numbers can't run a company…"
"…the quest to assemble relatively unimportant information can actually distract us from the few relevant facts…"
"…small data sets won't always give you the full picture, but the most impactful conclusions often actually require the least data…"
"…the world contains an infinite amount of data and almost all of it is irrelevant to whatever you're trying to measure…"
"…the objective of analysis is to boil down an impossibly complex world into a digestible set of approximations…"
"…always choosing the most granular option … (makes) it easier to miss the forest for the trees…"
"…clarity in how you present your analysis is often much more important that the precision of your model or completeness of your data set…"
These are not my words. I have picked it up from the post Mo Data, Mo Problems: 7 Inconvenient Truths About Big Data by Nick Petri.
And, no these are not exactly the seven inconvenient truth about Big Data. These are words in the article which I loved.
The seven inconvenient truths about Big Data as per Nick Petri are:
- Data ≠ Knowledge. Data x Analysis = Knowledge
- Data and Analysis Compete for Valuable Resources
- Data Always Seems Important. Often It Isn't
- Small Data Can Have a Huge Impact
- There's No Such Thing as a Complete Data Set
- Granularity Often Makes Decision Making Harder, Not Easier
- Big Data is Useless if You Can't Communicate it Clearly to the End User
More I dig into Big Data more I get convinced that the key is…
…the ability to ask the Right Question!
Everything else will follow.
Well this is probably true not only for Big Data but for most things in life!
