PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE COMPLETING A QUESTIONNAIRE Policy on Assessment for Possible Disability Undergraduate students who are not currently receiving services from Student Disability Services may be eligible to be assessed for a possible disability. Students must also have at least one of the following concerns to be eligible for assessment: a history of school problems; a GPA of 2.5 or lower; a low GPA in a specific subject that is impacting academic progress; inability to meet graduation requirements (such as WPA, Foreign Language etc); and/or on academic probation with the potential for academic disqualification. Our purpose for assessment is to determine whether or not a potential disability is severe enough to qualify students to receive legal accommodations while enrolled at San Diego State University. We will not assess in order to qualify individuals for accommodation at other institutions, for accommodation at places of employment, or for accommodation for national standardized tests. Diagnoses made and accommodations authorized by Student Disability Services may not meet eligibility criteria at other institutions. Graduate students and undergraduates who do not meet the criteria for assessment by the university may seek assessment from appropriate professionals in the community and supply documentation to Student Disability Services for determination of eligibility for services. A student with an existing cognitive or psychological disability that can be documented should submit the documentation along with the disability questionnaire. Disability verification forms and the Disability Questionnaire can be downloaded from the Student Disability Services web site at www.sa.sdsu.edu/dss. If you have any questions about our assessment policy, please contact us at 619-594-6473. 1 6/30/09 DISABILITY QUESTIONNAIRE This questionnaire MUST be completed by the STUDENT.)

Overmount Copper Sink Drainhole: Wrong Size Woes :(
I was coming here to ask "woe is me what do I do now", thinking there was some hard-to-understand problem.
But when I went to post photos of my situation, I realize you can just *visually* see the problem! Now really I think my biggest problem is getting the manufacturer, in Mexico, to address the situation.
So here's my story. I bought a copper sink, that I just love, from a place online called www.coppersinkscasacruz.com -- I still love them so far. We'll see what happens in this next great chapter. But the guy who runs it, Jose, was incredibly responsive, incredibly nice, I just love the look of his sinks, and when mine arrived it was beautiful, still smelled of the forge -- everything was hunkydory. And BTW, should anyone care the sinks he sells from his website directly are more expensive than through ebay because he uses a heavier gauge direct -- which I paid for, I thought it worth the extra twenty bucks and I am still happy I went with the heavier gauge.
So -- all's well, it takes forever to proceed and have my cabinet made and the stone added and to pick a faucet. I chose a Brizo oil rubbed wonder for an insane amount of money in part because there was a drain and that's when the real trouble started. I didn't realize I needed to request a popup drain and they didn't ask. But I managed to get Brizo to send a popup drain; the regular one worked fine but has holes all over the place that are no good.
Then when the popup arrived it didn't fit. Though the regular drain did. And it turns out that the drain hole in this beautiful, now-mounted (overmount with silicon) drain is 1 3/8", which is the ID measurement of the popup drain, not the OD which is 1 5/8". My sink is 1 3/8", maybe even 1 1/2". When I called Brizo they said "lady your sink is non standard, whatchathinkwecandoabouthat?"
I emailed back Jose and he wailed that he's never had a problem before and all his customers have no issues and he cannot imagine what the problem is and he uses a standard drain size and it is 1 1/2". When I put a tape measure to the hole I guess you could squeeze a 1 1/2" measure from that though it's a short 1 1/2". But it doesn't matter anyway because the popup is 1 5/8" OD.
I haven't heard back from Jose. But, he hasn't blown me off yet.... It hasn't been enough time.
When I went to write my woes here and ask if anyone has any creative ideas for getting a popup sink that is less than my plumber's warehouse's $150 one, I realize that just *looking* at his original photo of the sink he would send me and mine, you can *see* the drain hole looks different. Here are the two shots.
Not, I suppose, that there's much dispute because it is what it is:
So..... I guess what I'm hoping is Jose will look at the photos and say "whoopsey, my bad, something wrong in the manufacturing, let me send you another one". And then I'll somehow have to get the old sink out of it's locale and the new one in there. That's not too hard since it's just overmounted with silicone, right? right??? I wouldn't know....
But of course what I fear is he will vanish into the ether.
Does anyone have any suggestions with any of this? A lead on where to get a cheaper popup drain that will fit? Or how to carefully enlarge the copper drain hole by 1/2 without bending it so things will leak? A way to gerryrig the plumbing so things will work anyway? I don't really even need a drain plug, it's just for washing hands...
Standard bathroom drain size is 1 1/4" pipe. Kitchen drains are 1 1/2".
FWIW I think a popup without an overflow is a disaster waiting to happen. We've got those (vessels with no overflow, popup drains) in our bathroom and every time I close the drain I watch it like a hawk - I have visions of a mess.
"I don't really even need a drain plug, it's just for washing hands... "
Wouldn't it make the most sense to just go with the drain it came with? I mean, how often do you really fill the sink? You could get a small rubber flapper or something to set in there when you need to. Just a thought.
If you do decide to go with it anyway, I wonder if you could use a dremel with a metal cutting bit or something to make that hole wider? Or you could take it to a metal fabrication shop and see what they can do with it?
Good luck - gorgeous sink!
I would guess someone could carefully enlarge the hole in the sink if you wanted? We just had that done with a cast iron sink, though we were very lucky that the sink did not crack in the process.
But I also think it is not a good idea to have a pop up drain if there is no overflow.
yeees, well... why on earth didn't I chatter about this first? I didn't know...
Yes, that drain is - well not at counter height, it is overmount so it sits down lower than the countertop -- it's not a vessel sitting on the countertop, that is. It's an overmount inside of the cabinet. So -- that sounds good, right?
No, the sink did not come with any drain. And I would be super-happy to have no stopper, just use a rubber one from the hardware store in the rare instance it might be useful to stopper up the sink. In all honesty I just cannot see why that would happen. Maybe, sometime down the road the office next to this room gets turned into a guest room and a guest is staying there and wants to shave? Else, there's a big, deep laundry sink less than 4 feet from this lavatory. I am totally good with not stoppering it at all.
But how to do that? The plumber was quite dyspeptic about that. Should I hold his feet to the fire about creatively plumbing that?
Q: if bathrooms' standard pipe is 1 1/4" then maybe this is not even really the manufacturer's fault? He's offering to send me a new one if/when I send this back to him, but all the way to Mexico is likely going to be expensive. My druthers would be to somehow plumb this with no stopper -- is that even doable though??
Oh, sorry about the outlet thing ... well, it is GFI and it was inspected. But as we all know, inspectors don't catch lots. It's not right at counter level, but the outlet cover got shaved a 1/4" to fit on the top of the counter like that ... so someone will therefore know it's height off the countertop from that info (I don't). Does that make it sub-code par? I hadn't actually realized! It's not trying to be illegal, just we obviously don't know what we're doing and the city isn't really telling us. I guess you're thinking (duh) that's unsafe -- perhaps I should stick a kid outlet cover in the bottom one; it's rare anyone would ever be using that outlet anyway. I can see your point given its location, thanks!
But what the heck am I going to do about this mess?? Is copper really soft enough to cut it back installed like that? Who could do that? I was wondering whether the big heavy duty round drill saw bit the stone guy uses could be employed to grind away 1/4" from around the hole? Is that doable???
I am not an expert.
When our contractor tried to expand the hole of our cast iron sink to accommodate a larger drain, he mentioned that stainless or other metal wouldn't be a problem but he was concerned because cast iron is brittle. That is why I mentioned that someone should(?) be able to adjust your sink -- but I can understand why they would not want to be held responsible if the sink gets ruined. Our contractor mentioned using a dremel but I do not know whether or not that was the actual tool used.
Good luck with whatever you decide!
Why not get a pop-up drain that fits a 1 1/2" drain hole?
Here is a link that might be useful: Signature Hardware pop-up lavatory drain 1 1/2
You stated above that the the Brizo regular drain with holes all over it fit fine.
Why don't you just use that one. Why would you want to risk possibly ruining your sink by trying to enlarge the hole.
If and when you might need to close the drained just use flat suction-grip sink stopper. They are readily available at hardware and big box stores. I have even seen them at Walgreen and CVS.
Badger -- but how do those holes get plugged? They're meant for a commercial sink that's got heft underneath it and a spillover outflow thingymabob up top... I don't have the language. Or any idea what's going on. I only know that the plumber says no way no how can you use the non-overflow drain assembly on this sink because those holes all come below the sink...
I honestly have zero idea what's going on here.
I am perfectly happy with rubber stoppers, have em here in fact. The trouble, I'm told, is contriving plumbing to fit around the drain hole. Thanks for the link, dekeoboe. I'll call them and try to figure out *which part* is 1.5"...
No, not because it is a commercial sink. Because it is just a piece of molded copper, no molded attached outflow into which the holes in the regular drain assembly would flow.
I'd be happy to use the drain with the holes, but there's no place for the water to drain from through the holes... at least that's how it is explained to me.

Obama Asks for 'Calm Reflection' In Wake of Zimmerman Verdict
President Obama has issued a statement in the wake of Saturday night's jury decision that acquitted George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin.
In a case that drew national media scrutiny for over a year, Zimmerman was found not guilty by six jurors on the second day of deliberation. "For Trayvon to rest in peace, we must all be peaceful," said Martin's family attorney, Benjamin Crump, after the verdict was read.
STORY: Zimmerman Verdict: How the Sunday Morning Shows Covered
The president appeared to echo that sentiment in a Sunday statement. "We are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken. I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son," Obama said.
The full text from the president's statement is below:
The death of Trayvon Martin was a tragedy. Not just for his family, or for any one community, but for America. I know this case has elicited strong passions. And in the wake of the verdict, I know those passions may be running even higher. But we are a nation of laws, and a jury has spoken. I now ask every American to respect the call for calm reflection from two parents who lost their young son. And as we do, we should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to widen the circle of compassion and understanding in our own communities. We should ask ourselves if we're doing all we can to stem the tide of gun violence that claims too many lives across this country on a daily basis. We should ask ourselves, as individuals and as a society, how we can prevent future tragedies like this. As citizens, that's a job for all of us. That's the way to honor Trayvon Martin.

Adura flooring by Mannington
kimberwhiddenJuly 12, 2011
I am looking for a set of installation instructions & warranty paperwork for Mannington's Adura vinyl plank flooring from 2007 or 2008. We had this flooring professionally installed and are now encountering various problems that Mannington claims are not covered by warranty. Want to see if they changed the installation guidelines between 2008 and today. Please help!!
There has been no change of significance that I am aware of. As a Mannington 1 dealer, i should remember if there was anything of significance. Can you speak of the issue and your stance on the subject and I can advise or point you in the right direction.Usually an installation issue does not take 3 years to become evident.

I'd prefer Micheal Jai White, but hey it's the Rock
You know I forgot about Michael Jai White good suggestion. I've also heard some say Terry Crews. Iron Fist seems like a must for the film. Luke Cage in the Marvel film universe would open the door to a lot of characters who have been associated with or a part of Heroes for Hire.

So is anyone gonna freak out because he's half Samoan?
As far as wrestlers go I think Rock is one the best actors but hey every is entitled to their opinion. Rock's ethnicity is always gonna bother someone. He's half black he's half Samoan, he's not dark enough, he's too handsome or not handsome enough to play the part. People are entitled to their gripes about an actor's ability or appearance. Honestly though not to put down any other suggestions I've seen to play the role on this blog but be honest the Rock attached to a super hero will bring in people who aren't familiar with the character.
I like The Rock but I don't think he should be Luke Cage.I prefer the actor to be full African American.That's just my opinion.Besides every time he yells in a movie he sounds like he's cutting a promo lol.
i think he might be able to pull it off, checkout his performance in the movie called Faster. i think another that might be able to do it is idris Elba as Luke Cage.
Still no lol

I wasn't a neat freak when I married, but I'd be the first to tell you that somewhere between having two kids under age 3 and the consequent explosion of Cheerios, teeny white socks, puzzle pieces, sippy-cup valves, and Plastic Things That Play Mozart, I have lost my mind and changed my ways. My husband would be the first to tell you that "foreplay" around here now means emptying the kitchen drain of the Arthur-shaped pasta and wiping down the counters.
The worst manifestation of my new obsession with neatness and order is this: I am frantic about toys with multiple parts. I am frantic about receiving them, frantic about letting my boys open them, and frantic about collecting and sorting all of their scattered pieces at the end of the day.
There was a time when I believed that life with children would be simpler, that we could limit the amount of stuff we would accumulate to a handful of cunning and educational wooden toys. Yet somehow, and almost as if he brought them forth with him from my uterus, Coby arrived with dozens of pieces of colorful plastic: the stacking rings ("a classic"); the teething toys ("a must-have"); the yellow bus on the pull cord with the small lions and bears; the nesting boxes; the musical bees; the blocks. The more blocks.
And there was a time when, each night, after Coby was tucked up into his crib, my husband and I would painstakingly pile rings upon rings, pair small wooden pegs with large wooden boxes, match like with like. Presumably we did all this only so that if by chance we were robbed in the night, the burglar would be able to play with complete sets of educational toys.
I didn't really understand how truly pathological my attempts to keep multipart toys intact had become until I ran into a friend at the park. Like me, she was watching her toddler and her newborn. Like me, she looked exhausted and delighted. And like me, she was exhorting her 3-year-old not to lose any of the pieces of the toy he had insisted on dragging to the playground. "I know I sound nuts," she confessed. "But some bigger kids got hold of it yesterday and lost parts, and then he was devastated." I confessed then, full of both shame and relief, to evenings spent maniacally hunting down the last, lost foam pieces that had strayed from the book to which they belonged; confessed to going half out of my mind at the missing puzzle piece that instantly renders the whole puzzle junk.
Recently, Coby selected his first big-boy toy -- a plastic camper, with plastic Sesame Street characters that can sleep near a tiny plastic campfire, surrounded by little plastic water pumps and life rafts. "Are you sure you want that?" I asked, steering him hopefully toward large and self-contained items -- kites and soccer balls -- that wouldn't scatter to small spaces under exceedingly heavy furniture in random rooms the moment he carried them across my threshold.

More than 800,000, NEW shorts added to a previous month's level, is strong evidence these players see a large correction ahead. Traders and professionals, which is what SHORTs are by definition are the sharpest traders in the stock market arena.
Some of the happy dancers here, like ruby and viper will disagree, but just be aware, shorts rarely lose the bigger bets.

General Fund Becomes Law With Few Changes
Alabama's $1.8 billion General Fund budget for the next fiscal year has become law with only small changes from the governor.
Gov. Robert Bentley sent a line item veto the House of Representatives late Thursday making some alterations to the budget. Those changes became law when representatives adjourned for the night without taking action.
House budget committee chairman Rep. Steve Clouse of Ozark says the governor's changes to the operating budget were minor.
The governor struck out Medicaid language that required some patients with mental illness to first try generic anti-psychotic medication instead of the brand name drug. Bentley also vetoed about $3 million in transfers.
The fiscal year begins Oct. 1.

Help identifying and treating this weed
I'm having this stubborn weed growing between my trees.
It used to have a full grown stem with no apparent fruits, which was cut off.
Now the root system sperds pretty widely, sucking the water of my citrus trees.
What is that plant?
Can it be controlled?
Thanks a lot
are these bits of new growth emanating from that stump? That last picture makes me wonder if it's not really a weed, as we typically classify them, but the roots of an old tree making a last ditch effort to come up. Take a piece and run it to a local nursery to see what what they say.
The leaves are actually quite attractive. But there are two ways to knock it a manageable level. Pull like your trees depend on it, maybe even dig into the roots a bit, or chemical kill one at a time.
Round-up as a spot treatment should help a lot. The foaming spray cans do a pretty good job of keeping it from overspraying. It's pretty safe as long as it doesn't get on the leaves of the plants you want. It doesn't travel through the soil much either. So if you don't' want to pull, then spray those little suckers on a calm morning, and they should die off in a few days. Then get a pre-emergent to keep new ones from popping up.
Here is a link that might be useful: Weed Identification
Thanks for the tips and follow-ups.
I did not have a chance to test the pre-emergent for now, but round-up does seem to have some effect over new twigs.
I'm still waiting to see if this will be enough.
Why are those roots so black?
The tiny threads coming out of the main roots are completely black.
Is it normal for some trees?
This post was edited by sgsg on Fri, Sep 13, 13 at 13:08
I can't make out the black roots you speak of very well but it is possible that the original tree/shrub was killed by Honey Fungus, Armilleria, and the shoots are its attempts at regrowth. If the black roots look like boot laces compare them with some Google images of this fungus.

Arizona State Sun Devils
Sutton gets 10th All-American selection
The accolades keep on coming in for Arizona State defensive tackle Will Sutton.
A junior from Corona, California, Sutton was awarded his 10th All-American selection when he was named a Phil Steele Postseason Second Team.
There were few defensive players in the country as dominant as Sutton in 2012.
After recording 58 total tackles (20 for loss), 10.5 sacks and three forced fumbles, Sutton was named the Pat Tillman Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year.
Sutton and the Sun Devils return to action on December 29 in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl when they take on the Navy Midshipmen.
The bowl game could be Sutton's last as a Sun Devil.
The junior is expected to announce whether he will return for his senior season or declare for the NFL draft sometime after the team's showdown with Navy.

Milkweed Tussock Moth caterpillars
I have only found two Monarch caterpillars on my Milkweeds so far. The last few days, I have been introduced to some Milkweed Tussock Moth caterpillars. One patch of Common (a. syriaca) exploded with upwards of 100 cats. There are several smaller batches on the second patch. These are almost exclusively communal feeders and they can consume lots of Milkweed!
In my readings, it is indicated that the caterpillars of the Monarch and the MTM are not usually found on the plants at the same time.
I have attached a couple of shots.
This small group is feeding (heads down in the photo).
Wow, fantastic photos. I've often wondered what these little guys look like; now I have an excellent reference.
I agree, Sherry, they do look like the pull toys for dogs! :-) I've read these little cats can decimate wild milkweed. I often wonder if they are another reason the little wild 'Red Ring' milkweed is having such a time surviving in the wild.

Rockford Symphony participates in Orchestras Feeding America
• Food to be collected March 12-31 at performances and RSO administrative offices
From press release
Rockford Symphony Orchestra (RSO), in partnership with the Rock River Valley Pantry, is participating in the Third Annual "Orchestras Feeding America" national food drive.
"Orchestras Feeding America," created by the League of American Orchestras and Feeding America, has seen more than 250 orchestras from all 50 states collect more than 300,000 pounds of food, making this the single-largest orchestra project serving communities nationwide.
The RSO is collaborating with the Rock River Valley Pantry to collect food at performances and at the RSO administrative offices from March 12-31. All concert-goers who attend the March 12 RSO Star Pops concert and the March 26 Baroque & Beyond Classics Concert are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items the evenings of the performances.
Rock River Valley Pantry Executive Director Kim Adams-Bakke said: "The Rock River Valley Pantry is very excited about the opportunity to partner with the Rockford Symphony Orchestra and its supporters to fight hunger in our community. Their food donations will stay local and help us meet the needs of the 2,600 households that utilize our services each month."
The two pantry locations provide a total of nearly 375,000 balanced meals a year. Preferred item donations include canned vegetables and fruit, pasta, rice, cereal, tuna and skillet meals.
Contributions can be made at the Coronado Performing Arts Center Box Office, 314 N. Main St., or the RSO Administrative Offices at the Riverfront Museum Park, 711 N. Main St, during business hours. More information about Orchestras Feeding America is available at www.rockfordsymphony.com.
Under the artistic leadership of Music Director Steven Larsen, the RSO is the third largest symphony orchestra in the state of Illinois. The RSO is composed of 85 professional musicians who perform 17 concerts per year—including classics, pops, ballet and opera—for an estimated annual audience of 30,000. The RSO was named the 2007 Orchestra of the Year for Illinois.

Panicum virgatum 'Cheyenne Sky'
Does anyone have any experience with Panicum virgatum 'Cheyenne Sky'? Looking for a smaller grass to plant by an Adagio Miscanthus and noticed it is available at the local nursery I purchase my grasses from.
I haven't grown this one. The only red Panicum I have is 'Shenandoah.' After reading about this one, though, I may give it a try. It looks beautiful.
There is a mature clump of this a block up from where I live. I call it a "Car Wreck" plant, the kind you nearly swerve off the street or hit someone in front of you because you are so busy gaping at it. This one is in full, all day sun, a solitary plant and I yelled out "Go back Go back" to my husband who was driving so we had to circle around and check it out. It looked great as a single specimen and I cannot imagine it looking bad with what you have in mind.
Let me put it this way, I wish I had a spot for one. Simply gorgeous last fall. A perfect vase, tight and red with the sun shining through the reddish seed heads. Wow! I had already ordered three of the reddish P. Rotsth........(that one with the German name I'm too lazy to look up the spelling right now)
My sister ordered the P. 'Shenandoah'. I think that 'Cheyenne Sky' is supposed to be redder, seems like I read that anyway. Let us know how it looks this fall because I want a color report about hers as well and if they are as red as advertised. I think these red ones look a bit boring during the "green" time so hopefully they make up for it and get red sooner than later.
I am just thrilled with the 'Northwind' and a little less so with the 'Heavy Metal' but they are both pretty in mid summer. I say midsummer because with this years weather, thats what this is for all practical purposes. I love that dark olive color of the 'Northwind' and the form is unbelievable. It DOES look spray starched. Its a good type to use as a contrast grass with other types don't ya think?
Anyone care to give an update on this guy? I would love to hear opinions of it now that some here have had it awhile. When excactly does it turn that reddish color on the ends? "Early Summer" is when a lot of sources say it turns color. Does weather play a factor in its turning color? What I mean is, will it stay greener if the weather is cooler/moister out?
Just planted Cheyenne Sky spring 2012 so really to soon to say much. Can mention that tips this year began turning red towards the end of summer. Had upright beautiful blue green foliage and very nice airy seed heads (do they call them panicles). I have Panicum Northwind and it's absolutely gorgeous but big. Trying C S by the deck. So far very pleased with color, growth and uprightness in it's first year. Pat
Just an update if anyone is interested - I've had CS since spring of 2011, so it's survived and flourished through a winter in this zone. It is as advertised and the main feature is that it isn't the six foot monster. The drawback if any, is that it doesn't spread rapidly. I'll try harvesting this winter and see if I can get a drift going. That would be spectacular.

Welcome, guest
The battle to sketch the new face of global banking
Unlocking markets for intangible assets
Optimism over a possible rally in bank stocks will prove short-lived if banks cannot allocate capital to businesses with adequate and sustainable returns.
Foreign-exchange broker FXCM's CEO calls for wider adoption of circuit breakers on FX platforms to prevent another Swiss franc shocker as seen on Black Thursday, but critics question whether it is the right solution and even suitable for an over-the-counter (OTC) market such as FX.
London is strutting its stuff as a world centre for fintech innovation to rival Silicon Valley and New York. The first-stage disruptors, challengers and innovators are now established and growing. Government and regulators want to build a better financial system and see technology as the key.
International investors are increasingly looking at Latin America's local currency markets, but foreign exchange volatility makes the buyside wary of losing any potential gains, as has happened with some recent deals. The mixture of currency and credit risk may be too heady a cocktail for some.
Before revelations about HSBC's private bank, its chairman and CEO were seen as a winning combination. As the fallout becomes increasingly political, could their relationship be coming under threat?
A grilling from politicians can be murder for a bank chief executive. Your only hope is to get the murder board right in advance.
Inside the honeycomb: is this the future of bond trading? As bond market participants face up to the reality of diminished liquidity, low turnover and heightened risk of price gapping, the search for solutions is veering away from new trading protocols and exchange-like platforms towards providers of high quality pre-trade information. Do Algomi's Honeycomb and MTS's tie-up with B2SCAN point the way ahead?
UBS pushed into second place; majority of private banks globally expect improved revenues in 2015.
Innovation is held back by the gap between the old financial system, investing and lending primarily against hard assets, and the new knowledge economy that depends on intangible assets. A new type of bank could benefit SMEs seeking to develop innovative products. It could also give investors the chance to redeploy speculative capital more productively. But who is the driving force behind Snowflake?
The convulsions after the SNB's decision to cease pegging the Swiss franc to the euro are still being felt, with regulators in Europe and Australia debating the merits of tougher controls on leverage in FX markets for retail investors.
New trading system raises funds, prepares launch; 22 of top 50 asset managers signed up.
QE drives all-in yields to historic lows; Hybrids now more attractive than triple-B corporates.
Rabo and BPCE pioneer samurai deals; Japanese investors see big risks at euro banks.
Retail banks to be hit hardest; corporate clients set for higher charges.
Investors forced out along the curve; issuers play currency and duration game.
Viktor Orban's spat with Hungary's banks has cost the country dear. The bank tax may be on the way out, but the financial sector's troubles are far from over.
As China gradually loosens its grip on its FX regime, an ostensibly overvalued RMB is expected to fall back in line with global currencies, presenting a range of opportunities for traders, ranging from USD/CNH spot positions and the options market, to punts on the CNY-CNH differential.
Needs credibility before returning; wants to avoid punitive pricing.
After the events of Black Thursday, the CEO of crest-fallen FXCM, the FX broker, discusses the shake-up in its business model, the future for retail flows, and lashes out at the institutional FX market structure.
Energy market volatility hits equity tranches; index dispersion at highest level since crisis.
Basel wants end to use of credit ratings; further regulatory changes deplored.
Micro SMEs still cut off from bank finance; new way to lend against cash flow.
In its fair and effective markets review, the Bank of England has acknowledged end-users are largely ill-suited to the task of combating market misconduct in FICC markets. But opinion remains deeply divided over how best to strengthen oversight in wholesale markets, and which regulatory body should lead the charge.
Jonathan Hill has eschewed grand ambition for practical reality in his CMU green paper.
A petrochemical firm is the latest European corporate to take advantage of the recent surge in appetite for leveraged loans, opting for loans over bonds in €750 million deal.
Bank-backed spot FX trading platform is seeing increased participation from buy-side firms, but further growth is still top of its agenda.
US firms are heading towards record levels of euro issuance, bringing the credit markets closer together than ever.
Political pressures and lack of growth have put the European project under threat. Reform is urgently needed to set Europe back on course.
FX volatility highlights the need for corporates to stick to long-term hedging programmes, so that they can protect profits and their credit ratings. Some firms are also positioning themselves for opportunistic trades and upgrading their treasury and FX management systems.
Few thought that the marriage of a Chinese securities firm with an Asian brokerage which had a unique, and at times disruptive, culture could work. But two years on, Citic and CLSA have proved they can be at least the sum of their parts. Can the combination now become a true regional powerhouse as its leaders hope?
London is strutting its stuff as a world centre for fintech innovation to rival Silicon Valley and New York. The first-stage disruptors, challengers and innovators are now established and growing. Government and regulators want to build a better financial system and see technology as the key.
Private placements have usurped securitization as Europe's great SME financing hope. The financial markets support EU commissioner Jonathan Hill's Capital Markets Union initiative to promote it. But the thriving US market will be hard to compete with, let alone replicate. Which leaves two questions: Can the EU build it? And, even if it can, will issuers and investors come?
Money transfers to emerging markets is a huge business. By taking the process digital, the UK fintech start-up aims to slash the cost of remittances.
HSBC is pushing hard in its drive into Latin America's markets. From a DCM foundation, it is moving into other areas, though competition will be fierce.
With equity and now debt funding getting scarcer in public markets, Latin American corporates must think of other options. For longer-term investors, and for those with a strong appetite for risk, the region's troubles are a rare opportunity.
Boosted by a rich run of privatizations, the Turkish M&A market burst into life last year, hitting the highest total value of deals for close to a decade. The hope for 2015 is that the same feat can be repeated. In an election year, anything is possible.
The UK fintech start-up will manage your wealth for a small, transparent fee. Is this the start of a shake-up in the protected world of private banking?
Successive crises have taken their toll on the private-equity industry in emerging Europe and enthusiasm for the region has waned. Nevertheless, its combination of strong growth and opportunities for convergence with western Europe continues to attract a hard core of supporters.
Innovation is held back by the gap between the old financial system, investing and lending primarily against hard assets, and the new knowledge economy that depends on intangible assets. A new type of bank could benefit SMEs seeking to develop innovative products. It could also give investors the chance to redeploy speculative capital more productively. But who is the driving force behind Snowflake?
Europe's great disintermediation is stalling. Yield-hungry institutional investors are driving demand for loans at the riskier end of the credit spectrum. Banks, pumped with ECB-printed liquidity and desperate to put their capital to work, are getting off the fence. It could be music to Mario Draghi's ears. But is a sudden turn away from the bond markets, at increasingly aggressive lending rates, what Europe really needs?
Having the largest and most successful corporations in Asia as clients brings prestige and profit to the banks involved, but just beneath the very top is where the fight for the spoils of the future is raging. How do you pick – and bank – Asia's next generation of corporate champions?
Much has been said about the unfortunate timing of the Emirates NBD merger just before the global financial crisis, but what is often forgotten is just how challenging that merger would have been in any conditions.
Belarus's leaders are promising a dramatic package of reforms that could overhaul the country's sclerotic command economy and reduce its dependence on Russia. The only trouble is, no one believes them. Mixed messages to the bond markets haven't helped.
The country hopes a deal can revive its stumbling economy, but it will be hard to stick to the IMF's conditions when the 2016 elections are so close at hand.
If timing is everything, then Emirates NBD should be nothing. The merger that created the bank brought together two wholly dissimilar institutions, just as the global financial crisis brought Dubai to the brink of default. It has suffered ever since. Until now. Have Emirates NBD – and Dubai – really turned the corner?
The country's banking industry is growing fast. New laws designed to encourage foreign investment make it easier for offshore firms to wholly purchase local lenders. But there are plenty of barriers to entry aside from regulation.
The region's local debt markets are at a crucial point. International interest is growing. Investment banks are building up. But with one exception, domestic supply and demand remains limited. Can other countries follow Mexico's lead? Euromoney investigates the dynamics of Latin America's main bond markets.
Belarus's first deputy economy minister Alexander Zaborovsky insists that policymakers are keen to boost the share of the private sector in the economy through the development of new businesses. This meets with a high degree of scepticism locally, given the government's record on the treatment of entrepreneurs.
For many reasons Mexico is the envy of its emerging market peers. The next step in its development will require attracting more international investors, but there are big challenges ahead.

Ana Botín has revamped the board of Santander, appointed a new management team and overseen a large and market-testing equity raise that reverses the capital-light policy of her father. Four months into the job, the new executive chairman now has the biggest challenge of all in her sights: achieving strong growth in a banking sector notable for its almost total absence

I'm trying to set up a script to automatically localize a web application. As the web application is intended to use HTML5's offline caching ability, it needs to be able to work offline. As such, JavaScript seems to me to be the best option.
I'd prefer to put all the strings for all localizations in a single JSON file like so:
"en": {
"application_description": "This is the application's description in English.",
"application_name": "This is the application's name in English."
"ja": {
"application_description": "This is the application's description in Japanese.",
"application_name": "This is the application's name in Japanese."
I was thinking maybe of giving all elements that will be localized a custom attribute linking to the intended message (eg: i18n="application_name").
I can retrieve the browser's language using
navigator.language, though I think some results will have to be split into just their first section (eg: "en-US" "en-GB" and "en-AU" should all refer to "en").
However, my JavaScript knowledge is basic, and while I've thought about it, I cannot determine how to actually implement this.
Many thanks to anyone who can offer any tips or examples!

Tom Iliffe , a Texas A&M University at Galveston professor of marine biology, is seen here diving with a Megalodon closed circuit rebreather in the Atlantida Tunnel, Lanzarote, Canary Islands.
Underwater caves such as this were the focus of a National Science Foundation-supported expedition--"Survey of Anchialine Cave Fauna of the Bahama Islands" (grant DEB 03-15903)--led by Iliffe.
Anchialine (a Greek word meaning "near the sea") caves are coastal and form in limestone or volcanic rock. They flood with seawater and include the longest submerged caves on Earth. Many previously unknown species of higher taxa live in these caves. Most do not have eyes or pigment since they live in perpetual darkness.

Are you quilting this weekend?July 20-22
Well, it's time for the weekend question again! Did you finish any projects this week? What are you working on this weekend? To answer my own question, I finished all my Confetti Log Cabin blocks and put them together. I have added one border and want to put the next two borders on it this weekend. I haven't done a lot of sewing this week. I did order lots of Kona solids from fabric.com for a Super Mario quilt for my SIL. He saw one online and has been bugging my DD to make one for him. I hope to have it done for Christmas.
Are you quilting this weekend?
Linda OH
I spent some time sewing yesterday......today I'm spending some time ripping....120 plus inches! It all started with me cutting 2 1/2" squares for my JR strips....somehow they ended up 3 1/2"....oh well, I can live with that. Got them all sewn end to end and started sewing them side by side....hmmmm....something's wrong....all those white squares are almost next to each other.....AAAACCCCKKK....forgot to cut the first strip in half! I 'will' make this work!
Probably won't be sewing tonight as Jaycie is coming for a sleep-over while her parents go to the movies.....which is scary because of what happened in Colorado.
Aw, Sharon! Don't you hate it when you do dumb stuff like that? I've done plenty of them myself.
I did finish 3 projects this week! I finished the little quilt for the bear and 2 minis for the guild. I hope to post pictures tomorrow.
Tomorrow we're going to Lakeland to visit my mom, but I should be able to sew on Sunday. I was going to make 2 more minis for the guild, but I decided instead to assemble a quilt top for another group so I can get it mailed off to the quilter before I go on vacation.
This past week I finished cutting material for my stained-glass quilt, I think. I won't really know for sure until I've got it done since I'm making it up as I go along. I'm hoping to spend some time sewing blocks together on Sunday for that project.
I also heard about a site which allows you to design your own fabric. I can't remember the name of it at the moment, but it looks pretty easy to use. I want to get some pictures of my flower gardens and use them as a basis to make my own fabric. Wouldn't that be cool?
I have a baby quilt in the works that must be done for a shower next Sunday!
I have the borders cut, just need to attach them (hopefully tonight) and then sandwich/quilt (hopefully this weekend).
Change in step-son's wedding plans now give me 6 weeks to start & complete a king-sized quilt! Have some fabrics..need more.
Plus, 4 dresses for me & girls for the wedding itself!
Me busy??? nah, not any more than normal
It is cooler so I am finishing the binding on the Irish chain. Put the inner border on the double 4 patch and hope to get to the outer border. Planning on some prairie points so need to finish them. We are leaving on vacation next week so would like to get that top done before we go.
Yes.....I got caught up in the one seam flying goose discovery, and remembered I had a stack of vintage cotton plaids handed down through several quilters and a largish piece of tiny houndstooth homespun. Well, before I knew it, I had thirty-six six inch flying geese blocks done. LOL. Might as well keep making them until the houndstooth runs out and see how big she gets. It's gonna be a quilt, and for what purpose who knows. Depends on how big it gets. I'm already planning on what to use for more if I decide to make it full-sized. Sick, huh?
I am plugging away on the Mossy Radiation quilt. I decided to make a braid border to put on the top and bottom to make it rectangle instead of square. I just finished sewing the bottom braid on and tomorrow will buy the fabric for the final border. It will end up 88X100" instead of 83" square. I am quilting it next Sunday on a friend's longarm and will deliver it to my sister the following Sunday at our family reunion in Arthur, Illinois.
I've been working on a pieced backing (flannel scraps) for the flannel log-cabin top I finished about a month ago. We have the grand-kids this weekend, they were supposed to come last weekend but we weren't well enough from our ailments, so won't get a lot done but did do some piecing this morning. I'm really getting a lot knocked out from my stash. Maybe after this one I'll break down and treat myself with some new, even though I still have enough stashed to probably do at least 10 more quilts. (I'm having withdrawals I think.)
Dan, I think the site you are looking for is Spoonflower.com.
I've spent most of the day sewing! Yea for me! I finished the blue stars top that's been taking up all the space on my design board for a couple months. I would start quilting it if I hadn't used up all my batting. I think I'll go with the 80/20 on this one.
Lindaoh. My Mom lived in Arthur from the age of 12 until she and my Dad married....he was from Tuscola. My Grandad was struck by lightening and killed while working on the railroad. Grandma couldn't look after the farm so she sold it and moved to town with 6 kids in tow. My Uncle Billy still lives there. I love shopping at the Amish businesses in the area.
Small world. Are your Aunt and Uncle still there?
I finished a top on saturday...mitre the corners when I meant to do something totally different...my fault thinking I would remember instead of writing it down in my quilty book. It looks fine, just had to laugh at myself for doing something I really did not want to do initially. Next up...trying a new to me technique making a scrappy tote from Jenny Beyer charms...fingers crossed.
Tuppermom...Please post pics...love to see your creation!
So, the monster quilt top is made! My son had to hold the clothes line up for me in order to get the whole quilt in the picture. He is an Artist Blacksmith so had his work clothes on so I told him to make sure he was well away from the quilt!
Thanks Lois! I am sure my sister will love it but she will have to buy a ticket just like everybody else....it is a raffle quilt for the family shelter that my sister works at!
Mossy Radiation is the name of the pattern from the Kaffe Fassett book "Quilt Road" I am not a Kaffe Fassette fan, especially not his fabrics and how he uses them but this pattern spoke to me. If you google Mossy Radiation images you will see this quilt made in many different fabrics.

Charlie's White Peony
The fully double white blooms are up to 8 inches wide!
If you are new to the joy of Peonies, let us enumerate some of their merits! First, they are exceptionally carefree once established. One of the longest-lived perennials, a single plant can last for generations!
Second, their phenol content makes them unappetizing to insects, rabbits, and even deer.
Third, they offer 3 seasons of color: reddish spring foliage, bright late spring and early summer blooms; and bronze or purple fall tones.
Fourth, they are equally suited for garden or vase, offering old-fashioned charm plus armloads of blooms. Very long-lived after cutting, the flowers can even be used as everlastings.
Peonies are a nice garden "bridge" plant, looking something like a perennial and something like a shrub. Set in front of large shrubs or trees, they make a big splash of color without occupying a lot of space.
Traditional companions to Peonies are spring-and summer-flowering bulbs, blue- and white-flowered perennials, flowering shrubs such as Azaleas, and ornamental grasses.
Plant this perennial delight in well-drained soil in full sun. When planting more than one, place them 3 to 4 feet apart. If you live in a climate with severe winter weather, make sure the eyes are 1 to 2 inches below the surface of the soil (and top with mulch). In warmer areas, cover with an inch of soil and mulch lightly for winter.
Our Peonies are sold in Bareroot form with at least 3 to 5 growing eyes. Zones 3 to 8.
