Critical Read
What: A report from the Center for a New American Security (CNAM) that outlines reasons for policymakers to provide guidance and clarity on the debate about active cyber defense (ACD).
Why: ACD, or the range of proactive actions taken to engage an adversary before and during a cyber-incident, "can dramatically improve efforts to prevent, detect and respond to" sophisticated attacks, says author Dr. Irving Lanchow, CNAS Senior Fellow and Director of the Program on Technology and U.S. National Security. Lanchow explains why ACD is needed, and what constitutes the cyber engagement zone. There is also a lack of clarity about which ACD actions companies and agencies can legally take to defend themselves, and the author urges lawmakers to develop a framework for ACD initiatives.
Verbatim: Only 6 percent of organizations detect advanced attackers via internal methods. Targeted attacks continue to evade preventive defenses. During 2011, the vast majority of targeted organizations – 94 percent – learned that they were victims of cyber-attacks from an external entity such as law enforcement.

Katies' Formally Functional Dining Room Home Office
DeskTops – The Best of Readers' Desks & Workspaces

I can totally empathize with Katie's dilemma: you need a home office, but the only viable space is the dining room (in my case I had to convert a closet into a home office, while my better half converted the dining room table into her desk). But Katie didn't just decide to work in her formal dining room, but fully convert it into a home office with enviable personality reflecting her love of color and her family...
Take 5: Perfect Loose Leaf Tea Brewers
Quality loose leaf tea is the foundation of a delicious pot of tea, but the pot has a lot to do with it too. To begin, no plastic parts should be involved in the actual brewing compartment - heat and plastic shouldn't mix in the interest of both flavor and durability. Plastic lids or handles are okay.

On the floorplan, it's listed as "Auxiliary Room," a vague definition that falls far short of inspiration. What to do with this space, with no windows, no definition, and to be honest, no saving grace? Not to worry. Enter gentleman designer Matthew Patrick Smyth, who manages to turn slightly vague into totally specific. Through the lens of the talented Mr. Smyth, it's part Kasbah but pure Kismet. And it stole the show at Hearst's Designer Visions.

Mutiny on the Bounty is a 1962 historical drama film starring Marlon Brando and Trevor Howard based on the novel Mutiny on the Bounty by Charles Nordhoff and James Norman Hall. The film retells the 1789 real-life mutiny aboard HMAV Bounty led by Fletcher Christian against the ship's captain, William Bligh. It is the second American film to be made from the novel, the first being Mutiny on the Bounty (1935). The score was composed by Bronisław Kaper.
Mutiny on the Bounty was filmed in the Ultra Panavision 70 widescreen process, the first motion picture so credited. It was partly shot on location in the South Pacific.
In the year 1787, the Bounty sets sail from England for Tahiti under the command of captain William Bligh (Trevor Howard). Her mission is to transport breadfruit to Jamaica, where hopefully it will thrive and provide a cheap source of food for the slaves.
The difficult voyage gets off to a difficult start with the discovery that some cheese is missing. Bligh, the true pilferer, is accused of the theft by seaman John Mills (Richard Harris), and Bligh has Mills brutally flogged for showing contempt to his superior officer, to the disgust of his patrician second-in-command, 1st Lieutenant Fletcher Christian (Marlon Brando). The tone for the months to come is summarized by Bligh's ominous pronouncement that "cruelty with a purpose is not cruelty, it is efficiency." Aristocrat Christian is deeply offended by his ambitious captain.
Bligh attempts to reach Tahiti sooner by attempting the shorter westbound route around Cape Horn, a navigational nightmare. The strategy fails and the Bounty backtracks east, costing the mission much time. Singleminded Bligh attempts to make up the lost time by pushing the crew harder and cutting their rations.
When the Bounty reaches her destination, the crew revels in the easygoing life of the tropical paradise — and in the free-love philosophies of the Tahitian women. Christian himself is smitten with Maimiti (Tarita Teriipaia), daughter of the Tahitian king. Bligh's agitation is further fueled by a dormancy period of the breadfruit: more months of delay until the plants can be transplanted. As departure day nears, three men, including seaman Mills, attempt to desert but are caught by Christian and clapped in irons by Bligh.
On the return voyage, Bligh attempts to bring back twice the number of breadfruit plants to atone for his tardiness, and must reduce the water rations of the crew to water the extra plants. One member of the crew falls from the rigging to his death while attempting to retrieve the drinking ladle. Another assaults Bligh over conditions on the ship and is fatally keelhauled. Mills taunts Christian after each death, trying to egg him on to challenge Bligh. When a crewman becomes gravely ill from drinking seawater, Christian attempts to give him fresh water in violation of the Captain's orders. Bligh strikes Christian when he ignores his second order to stop. In response, Christian strikes Bligh. Bligh informs Christian that he will hang for his action when they reach port. With nothing left to lose, Christian takes command of the ship and sets Bligh and the loyalist members of the crew adrift in the longboat with navigational equipment, telling them to make for a local island. Bligh decides instead to cross much of the Pacific in order to reach British authorities sooner and arrives back in England with remarkable speed.
Christian sails back to Tahiti to pick up supplies and the girlfriends of the crew, then on to remote and wrongly charted Pitcairn Island to hide from the wrath of the Royal Navy. Once on Pitcairn, Christian decides that it is their duty to return to England and testify to Bligh's wrongdoing and asks his men to sail with him. To prevent this possibility they set the ship on fire and Christian is fatally burned while trying to save it.

Carol Reed was hired as the original director; however he would be replaced by Lewis Milestone during production. Reed had worked with Trevor Howard on The Third Man (1949) and Outcast Of The Islands (1951).[2]
Lewis Milestone had won directing Oscars for Two Arabian Knights (1927) and All Quiet On The Western Front (1930). Although he had directed films in all genres, he had in particular directed many war films; The General Died At Dawn, Edge Of Darkness, The North Star, The Purple Heart, A Walk In The Sun, Arch Of Triumph, Halls Of Montezuma, They Who Dare and Pork Chop Hill. Milestones last film prior to Bounty was the 'Rat Pack' hit Oceans 11.[3]
The screenplay was written by Charles Lederer whose first script was the adaptation of the play The Front Page (1931) directed by Milestone, and he too was hot off Ocean's 11. However there would be uncredited script contributions by Eric Ambler, William L. Driscoll, Borden Chase, John Gay and Ben Hecht. Producer Aaron Rosenberg had worked with director Anthony Mann and writer Borden Chase on Jimmy Stewart westerns such as Winchester '73, Bend Of The River and The Far Country. Chase has pointed out the similarities between Bounty and his script for Red River.[4]
Directors are supposed to be in charge, and once M.G.M caved in and replaced Carol Reed it was essentially all over so far as keeping a lid on the production; Brando's ego was out of control during this period of his career. Mutiny on the Bounty became notorious for the way Marlon Brando effectively took over directing duties himself and caused it to become far behind schedule and over budget, much like his previous film, which he had directed; One-Eyed Jacks (1961). Bounty cost $19 million, an enormous amount for the day, it was a financial flop even though it was the sixth highest grossing film in its year of release.[5]
Brando made his directorial debut in the western One-Eyed Jacks, which was originally to be directed by Stanley Kubrick. Brando's penchant for multiple retakes and character exploration as an actor carried over into his directing, and the film went over schedule and budget. Paramount expected the film to take three months to complete but shooting stretched to six and the production costs doubled. Brando's inexperience as an editor also delayed postproduction, and Paramount eventually took over. Brando always spoke of the experience with indifference, but many feel this is where his previous contempt with Hollywood turned corrosive. This revulsion reportedly boiled over to Mutiny On The Bounty. Brando was accused of deliberately sabotaging nearly every aspect of the epic production. The Saturday Evening Post ran an article by Bill Davidson that screamed;
'Six Million Dollars Down The Drain: The Mutiny Of Marlon Brando.'[6]
Director Milestone commented that executives; "…deserve what they get when they give a ham actor, a petulant child, complete control over an expensive picture." [7]
Originally it was planned to shoot Bounty in sequence, starting with scenes under grey October skies, then bursting into Tahitian colour. However the reconstructed 'Bounty' was behind schedule and director Reed had to start shooting the island sequences first, or any footage that did not require the ship in the background. Even so, Reed ran out of pages to shoot and Brando wasn't happy with the script. Eric Ambler who had worked with Carol Reed on The Way Ahead (1944), returned to Hollywood. His first replacement was Howard Clewes didn't work out, then Charles Lederer (Oceans 11) arrived to take over the writing chores.[8]
Shooting dragged on so long the rainy season hit. Seventeen days were lost due to weather and the company returned to M.G.M to shoot interiors. [9]
Carol Reed clashed with Brando and M.G.M management early in the production. He and Brando disagreed about the interpretation of Bligh, whom Reed wanted presented as an obvious villain, and whom Brando thought should be a fop. Reed also wanted to omit some scenes; however the studio insisted he 'shoot the script.' After Reed suggested production head Sol Siegel fire Brando for holding up production, he asked to be relieved. Siegel refused… and then fired him. Had Reed been allowed to quit, he would have been paid nothing for his time, but since M.G.M fired him, he pocketed $200,000.[10]
Lederer suggested Milestone who had directed Oceans 11, as a replacement director. He agreed to do the film only after speaking with Reed, who assured him he had wanted to leave. Things went well for two weeks, and then Milestone noticed when he called "Roll 'em," nothing happened until Brando gave the nod… and nobody asked Milestone if they should print the take. During the next day of filming Milestone didn't attempt to give any direction and instead read a book. This brought producer Rosenberg to the set to ask if Milestone was quitting; he assured Rosenberg it wasn't worth risking a lawsuit to quit the film. Nonetheless, he warned Siegel, "This guy Brando is going to ruin you…" [11]
Milestone had been in charge of some challenging shoots in his career, notably Kangaroo (1952), which had cast changes, was shot on location, was constantly being re-written, had cast members falling ill, and suffered from unexpected rain, so he theoretically may have been able to steady the ship. But Brando was a new beast. Hollywood had never had an actor as influential, nor as individualistic; he didn't just antagonise studio heads, as many actors also said Brando was difficult to work with. There was no love lost between Brando and Richard Harris; in fact Brando remained distant with the cast, alienating several of them with his lateness on the set and his changing scenes after rehearsing them. As filming continued Brando slowed down the production by questioning each line in the script, and each of Milestone's suggestions. He demanded repeated re-writes; most days started with Brando and Lederer going over the day's scenes in private until well past noon, keeping the crew and other actors waiting.[12]
When in July production returned to Tahiti relations between Brando and Milestone were still tense, and the script was still being re-written daily. The rest of the cast dealt with this by drinking heavily. Hugh Griffith was fired during filming when his alcoholism became unmanageable; that is why his character disappears for large portions of the film. Director Milestone had dealt with rampant alcoholism on set before, on the ironically enough titled The Captain Hates The Sea (1934). [13]
After wrapping the location shoot, the production returned for a final time to Hollywood. They needed to tie up the Pitcairn Island scenes. Lederer brought in Ben Hecht to help write the final scenes. Hecht is a Hollywood legend who wrote the play 'The Front Page' that the film was based on, linking him to Charles Lederer who wrote the adaptation. Hecht wrote crime drama's (Scarface), comedies (Design For Living), adventure yarns (Gunga Din), adapted classics (Wuthering Heights), wrote one of Hitchcock's greatest films (Notorious), film-noir (Where The Sidewalk Ends), and worked as an uncredited script doctor on more films than he got credited for, such as Carol Reed's Trapeze, and the Marlon Brando film Guys and Dolls.[14]
Brando directed the final scenes as even though Milestone showed up each day, nobody bothered to call him to the set; Milestone never directed another feature film. In interviews he estimated Brando's behaviour had cost the production $6 million.[15]
Production finally ground to a halt in October 1961, more than a year after filming had started. But they still didn't have an ending, mainly because nobody could figure out why Christian's crewmates would kill him. Billy Wilder (no stranger to difficult actors having directed Monroe in Some Like It Hot) suggested that if Christian decided to sail back to England to be tried in court that would provide a motivation for the ship's burning with Christian on board. Brando submitted a list of directors he would work with on the final scenes, and George Seaton who had never worked with the actor, agreed on condition that there was no publicity and that he not be renumerated. Brando was the poster boy of professionalism during that week of shooting. The scenes were shot in August 1962, almost a year after the end of principal photography.[16]
'The Saturday Evening Post' published a scathing article titled 'The Mutiny of Marlon Brando.' Drawing largely on an interview with Milestone, they recounted everything Brando had done to delay the production, without mentioning the late delivery of the 'Bounty,' or the weather delays. On that basis Brando twisted the arm of new head of M.G.M Joseph R. Vogel to issue a statement that Brando wasn't to blame for the escalating budget or production delays. This would later be used against Vogel when he was fired![17]
Despite the bad press, the film garnered seven Academy Award nominations that year including Best Picture, Best Cinematography, and Best Special Effects, but was overshadowed by David Lean's epic Lawrence of Arabia.[18]
At the time Brando and Elizabeth Taylor were the poster children for Hollywood excess, criticised for what was perceived as their part in causing the budgets to balloon on their epic films Bounty and Cleopatra. Aside from their record pay checks ($1.25 million for Brando, with overages; a minimum of $1 million to Taylor), the press claimed it was prima donna behaviour on the part of the two stars that caused the resulting financial hardships at their respective studios, M.G.M and 20th-Century Fox. Although both films were costly, Cleopatra was far more so coming in at $44 million, the most expensive film ever made when adjusted for inflation. While M.G.M was hurt financially, Cleopatra nearly bankrupted Fox. Taylor however, went on to win a second Oscar (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?) and remained among the highest paid movie stars in the world throughout the 1960s. [19]
The story goes Hollywood blacklisted Brando and wouldn't use him, but his next two pictures were for Universal; The Ugly American (where his restrained performance was given credit), and Bedtime Story (which was remade in 1988 as Dirty Rotten Scoundrels). Aaron Rosenberg, far from being afraid of working with Brando again, then put him in Morituri (1965) for 20th Century-Fox; Fox were clearly fearless after Taylor and Cleopatra. Then Columbia made the Southern all-star The Chase, and then back to Universal for the Mexican-Western The Appaloosa and Chaplin's swan song A Countess From Hong Kong. Warner Brothers then put both Brando and Taylor in the truly strange Reflections in a Golden Eye. In 1968 Brando went overseas to swinging London to make the 'hip' Candy, which as is often the way of these things, lost money even though it was the 13th highest grossing film of that year. Across the channel to France for The Night of the Following Day, in which Brando and director Hubert Cornfield's working relationship collapsed. Next came Queimada! or Burn! which was shot in Italy and Colombia, and is obviously close to Brando's political heart. The Nightcomers found Brando back in the U.K in an unsubtle but entertaining shocker, and then Brando found himself back in the U.S with a reluctant Paramount (remember they financed One-Eyed Jacks) agreeing to hire him for The Godfather (1972). The film was an enormous success, but after a series of flops Paramount had got Brando cheap - so he refused to do any publicity for the picture. However Brando had the last laugh as he still had it; he was 44 years old and was completely convincing playing a character in his seventies towards films end.[20]
Box office performance[edit]
Given its enormously inflated budget of $19 million, the film was a box office flop,[21] despite being the 6th highest grossing film of 1962. It grossed only $13,680,000 domestically,[1] earning $9.8 million in US theatrical rentals.[22]

limit the search areas and hence the average durations of vacancies for both minority and non-minority renters. Having controlled for the above set of equilibrium duration determinants, the annual fixed effects coefficients reveal significantly longer duration of vacancy during 1990-1992 and 1994. Those results are consistent with the hypothesis that the observed duration of vacancy should rise during a period of generalized economic and rental housing market weakness. Finally, our results also indicate statistically longer average durations of rental unit vacancies in the Anaheim, Atlanta, Birmingham, Houston, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Norfolk and San Francisco MSAs, and significantly shorter average durations of vacancy in the Minneapolis, New York, Northern New Jersey, Portland and Seattle MSAs. The results for the incidence of vacancy indicate that: (1) the average incidence series varies directly with the percentage of the population that is elderly; (2) the percentage of renter-occupied units owned by a public housing authority significantly dampens the incidence of rental vacancy, as the availability of below-market rents in public housing units works to limit their turnover; (3) the annual rate of population growth exerts a sizable and significant negative influence on the incidence of rental vacancies. These findings suggest that much of the population growth was unanticipated, and as such resulted in a tightening in rental housing market conditions and a reduction in vacancy incidence. We also find evidence of a significant decline in vacancy incidence in 1992. We interpret this result as consistent with the tightening in rental market conditions that occurred that year in the wake of some rebound in macroeconomic activity. As is well appreciated, the strengthening in demand for rental units in 1992 occurred in a market that had seen significantly damped rates of new production over preceding recession years. Finally, all things equal, several MSAs–including Anaheim, Atlanta, Birmingham, Houston, Indianapolis, New Orleans and Norfolk–had significantly higher levels of vacancy incidence during the period. As is evident in table 1, MSAs with significantly higher incidence of vacancy generally had significantly higher duration levels. In addition, several of the MSA-specific fixed effects coefficients are significant, reflecting the differences between New York and the other cities in the sample. For example, the estimates suggest that renters in Atlanta, Buffalo, Chicago, and Philadelphia experienced higher rates of rent increases—all things equal—than renters in other metropolitan areas. Results for Minneapolis suggest a damped rental price adjustment mechanism relative to other cities in the sample. Finally, our research also provides new estimates of the equilibrium rental vacancy rate for rental housing, which is in the range of 4 to 4.5 percent. While this estimate may be viewed as relatively low, note that this paper utilizes a new source of information on rental vacancies computed from a notably reliable survey. Further, the estimates are supported by data from a large number of metropolitan areas spanning a relatively long time frame. VI. C Real Estate R Fall 2000 Research Brief ENTAL HOUSING MARKETS, THE INCIDENCE AND DURATION OF VACANCY, AND THE NATURAL VACANCY RATE I. I ONCLUSION M odels of Residential Rents. Our final test involved estimating our residential rent model for a pooled cross-section and time-series sample of 29 U.S. metropolitan areas for the years 1987-1996. The rental variable was proxied by the residential rent component of the CPI for each metropolitan area deflated by that area's All Items Excluding Shelter component of the CPI. Certain models test the significance of the decomposition of the vacancy series into the incidence and duration components. Also, the empirical analysis introduces proxies for lagged rents and absorption of rental housing space, as suggested in recent work by Wheaton and Torto.2 Our results show that high vacancy rates significantly impede the rate of increase in real rents. Research findings also lend credence to the decomposition of the vacancy measure into its incidence and duration components. The incidence estimates are statistically significant and negative, indicating that changes in rents are more responsive to changes in incidence than to changes in duration. Estimation findings further indicate that lagged rent is highly significant in the explanation of residential rent changes. his Lusk Center Research Brief reports on derivation and analytical modeling of the duration and incidence of vacancy as well as empirical assessment of their importance to the price adjustment mechanism for rental housing. Results of the analysis indicate substantial variation in those measures across MSAs and over time. Research findings indicate that the average duration of vacancy varies directly with potential tenant search costs and with MSA housing costs. Accordingly, e-commerce and other mechanisms to enhance the flow of information on available units could go some distance toward lowering search costs and improving the efficiency of rental market allocations. In contrast, the incidence of vacancy varies with measures of population age structure and mobility, the presence of public housing units, and population growth. Clearly, property turnover is damped in the presence of below-market public housing units. As with frictional unemployment, however, some portion of vacancy incidence is desirable, reflecting the voluntary moves of utility-maximizing households. Our estimation results further indicate that changes in residential rents are more responsive to vacancy incidence than to vacancy duration. This suggests that landlords, in determining rent, are more sensitive to tenant outflow (incidence) than to lease-up time (duration). R T NTRODUCTION EFERENCES he ups and downs of rental housing markets have led policymakers, investors, and lenders to look for better ways to evaluate the risks and returns to investment in residential properties. To that end, real estate economists have drawn analogies from labor market theory to model the way prices adjust in the rental housing market. For example, labor economists have long sought to estimate the natural rate of unemployment, defined as that rate associated with long-run equilibrium in the labor market and a constant level of real wages. In a similar vein, real estate economists have defined the natural vacancy rate as that rate associated with rental market equilibrium and constant real rents. Rising real rents imply excess demand for housing and vacancy rates that are lower than their equilibrium levels, while falling real rents imply excess supply and vacancy rates that are higher than their equilibrium levels. These simple models do well in empirical studies [see, for example, Gabriel and Nothaft (1988)]; in recent years, observed vacancy rates have declined to near equilibrium levels in many metropolitan areas, suggesting higher rates of return to investors and reduced risks to multifamily lending and construction. So far, however, researchers in real estate markets have yet to apply another useful development in the labor literature, namely, how labor market fluctuations are explained by decomposing the unemployment rate into its incidence and duration components. Indeed, the observed unemployment rate fails to indicate whether a sizable portion of the labor force experiences a short spell of unemployment (as in frictional unemployment) or whether a relatively small portion of the labor force bears a sizable portion of the unemployment burden by way of relatively long spells of (structural) unemployment. Clearly the appropriate policy response hinges importantly on the source of unemployment. T Authors: Stuart A.

Incidence of vacancy is the probability that a housing unit becomes vacant; for particular types of rental property, the incidence measure indicates the proportion of the stock that experiences a spell of vacancy. The duration of vacancy measure indicates how long a typical unit remains vacant. Any development that makes the incidence of vacancy higher or the duration of vacancy longer will lead to a higher vacancy rate. Decomposition of vacancy rates into their incidence and vacancy components accordingly yields new information as to the source of the fluctuations in the overall indicator. That information is useful also because differences in these components imply different responses for real estate development and policy. For example, higher levels of vacancy incidence may reflect a voluntary turnover of stock in rental housing markets that maximizes landlord's profits and renter's preferences, whereas higher levels of vacancy duration may reflect structural mismatches between the characteristics or locations of units available for rent and the demands of potential tenants. One reason little work has been done so far on incidence and duration of residential vacancies is that researchers lack the data for it. For example, the American Housing Survey (AHS) collects virtually no information on the incidence or duration of vacancy between rental stock survey dates, and the estimation of duration is truncated because the termination date of the vacancy is never observed. This Lusk Center Real Estate Research Brief reports on a study of rental housing markets that draws on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) that has not previously been used for this purpose.1 In the analysis, we compute the rate, incidence and duration of rental vacancies for major metropolitan areas (MSAs) in the United States. Our results indicate the extent to which variation in residential vacancy rates across metropolitan areas and over time is due to differences in vacancy incidence, vacancy duration, or both. In addition, we evaluate the incidence and duration measures econometrically, providing new insights into their determinants. Finally, we use the incidence and duration measures to compute new equilibrium rental vacancy rates and to evaluate the price adjustment mechanism for rental housing. II. I apartments themselves. Apartments that are removed from the rental stock have noticeably higher vacancy rates and duration, consistent with the notion that units withdrawn from the rental stock may be subpar and/or lack the physical or locational characteristics demanded by potential tenants. The analysis begins with the standard stock-flow model, where the stock of rental housing in a particular metropolitan area is assumed to be fixed in the short run but then evolves over time in response to changes in the expected rate of return to investments in rental properties. The intersection of supply and demand for rental housing services yields a level of apartment rents as well as a short-run stock of vacant units. In the model, excess demand for units—due to factors that push the observed incidence or duration of rental vacancies below their long-run equilibrium levels—should result in vacancy rates which similarly fall below their equilibrium or "natural" levels and in so doing put upward pressure on rents. The upward movement in rents should work both to depress demand from existing renters and to prompt additions to the rental housing stock; both of these adjustments should in turn enable observed vacancy rates to move in the direction of equilibrium levels. Likewise, factors that move the observed incidence or duration of vacancy to levels above their equilibrium rates should result in downward pressure on rents, diminished pace of new construction, and increased demand from existing renters. In other words, the rate of change in metropolitan rents is determined in part by the deviation in observed vacancy rates from their long-run natural or equilibrium level. Several factors in a locality may push the observed incidence or duration of rental vacancies above or below their long-run equilibrium levels. For example, unexpected fluctuations in the local business cycle may affect both incidence and duration. The factors influencing incidence specifically include rates of population mobility and population growth, metropolitan population age structure and poverty status, presence of public housing, and the like. The factors influencing duration include those that affect the cost of or returns to rental apartment search and hence the chance of achieving a good match between potential renters and available units, such as diversity in the local rental stock. III. M the prospective tenant. If tenants try to minimize shelter costs per unit of housing quality, then higher rent levels suggest higher potential gains from continued housing search, thus lengthening the duration of vacancy. Landlords, on the other hand, try to maximize net rental income. The opportunity costs of vacant units rise with the prevailing level of rents. From the landlord perspective, one would expect some damping in duration of vacancy in high rent areas. NCIDENCE, DURATION, AND EQUILIBRIUM VACANCY RATES F actors affecting incidence of vacancy. I nitial review of data from the BLS indicates sizable and significant variation in the incidence and the duration of rental vacancies across metropolitan areas and over the rental housing cycle. As evidenced in Table 1, over the 1987 – 1994 period, New York City rental housing markets were characterized by the lowest vacancy rates, as well as the lowest incidence and duration of vacancy estimates. Vacancy rates, incidence, and duration trended down significantly in Houston during that period; nonetheless, that metropolitan area was at the high end of all three measures. For cities in the sample, average duration estimates generally were between 1.5 to 2 months. Further, the data suggests a great deal of tenant mobility and apartment turnover; over six-month intervals approximately 30 percent of rental units experienced a vacancy spell, or, in other words, 70 percent of units remained continuously occupied. Some rental units were more susceptible to vacancy spells, probably because of local economic and demographic characteristics, as well as characteristics of the The equilibrium incidence of rental market vacancies largely should reflect the mobility of the renter population, together with changes in the size of renter populations and the availability of below-market rental units. To proxy for population mobility directly, we use the percentage of the population that moved in the prior year. Additional controls include the elderly and poverty-level percentage of all households. Household move rates rise among the oldest age cohorts, possibly due to climatic, family, or health-related concerns. Overall, mobility should be lower among lower-income households. Population growth as derived from indigenous sources and from interregional migration should affect the equilibrium incidence of rental housing vacancy. While unanticipated population increases lead to lower short-run vacancy rates, areas characterized by a higher rate of expected population growth may have a higher equilibrium incidence of rental vacancies stemming from higher rates of new construction. A priori, it is unclear which of these conflicting influences dominate. We use the annual rate of population growth to control for this effect. Renter population and rental housing stock characteristics were obtained from the American Housing Survey metropolitan area files.

Chicago, IL-IN-WI Washington, DC-MD-VA In our analysis, equilibrium levels of vacancy duration reflect local rental market conditions. To the extent rental units are similar, potential tenants minimize search costs (and hence duration of vacancy) by taking the first available unit. We anticipate that the observed duration of vacancy will be greater in metropolitan areas with greater diversity in the rental housing stock. To empirically proxy for this diversity, we use indices of the age, size distribution, physical characteristics, and intra-metropolitan location of the stock. In general, we hypothesize that search costs and duration of vacancy vary directly with each measure of diversity. Rent levels are represented by tenants' median housing costs for each metropolitan area. The effects of rent levels on the equilibrium duration of vacancy are unclear, a priori, because of the potentially conflicting responses of the landlord and To control for deviations in nominal duration and incidence from equilibrium levels, we include MSA- and time-specific fixed effects as well as an indicator of generalized local economic and real estate market weakness. In general, we expect that both the incidence and the duration of vacancy should rise above equilibrium levels during periods of damped demand for rental units. In the analysis, MSA-specific economic cycles are proxied in the regression analysis by a categorical variable indicating the occurrence and timing of a local economic downturn. We account for intertemporal variation in the incidence and duration of vacancy by way of annual fixed effects. As anticipated, the nominal duration and incidence series vary systematically with a vector of proxies for equilibrium levels of those series. The results for the duration of vacancy indicate that: (1) duration is significantly boosted by measures of the diversity of the rental housing stock; (2) duration is significantly reduced in areas of higher median housing costs, consistent with the notion that landlord opportunity costs of holding units in vacant status increase with levels of apartment rents; (3) duration is significantly lowered in areas characterized by higher proportions of minority households.

Signs have been a marketing staple for centuries. Today, signage is one of the most cost-effective forms of advertising. The most successful sign makers are highly skilled in painting, graphic design, silk screening, metal- and woodworking. They are also very much in demand. For those with the interest and talent, finding a good sign business for sale can be quite profitable.The sign industry in the U. S. is a $12 billion industry, with almost 5,800 businesses employing roughly 73,000 people. Many signage companies offer large-format printing, electric signs, wayfaring signs, and dynamic digital signs. Fifty of the largest sign businesses in America — including Young Electric Sign Company, Brady Corporation, and Visual Graphic Systems — are responsible for 30% of the annual revenue. Small, independent signage businesses, however, can be quite successful as well. When looking for a signage business that's for sale, make sure it includes enough basic tools such as saws, grinders, and drills to get you started. Ideally, it will also have a core staff in place and can supply ongoing customers that will help you hit the ground running. Some clients may already have an idea in mind for their sign, while others will walk through the door looking for inspired guidance. Either way, one of the benefits of running a signage shop is working one-on-one with customers in a very creative endeavor.

Big Board: Top 25 NFL prospects
Jameis Winston tops Mel's rank of the top 2015 NFL draft prospects
I like to take a little time off after the NFL draft, and this year the NFL decided to cut into that time a little bit by moving the draft into May. So it didn't feel like there was much of a pause until I dove back into the evaluation process for next year's class. While I've spent much of the past month getting this class lined up, it's time to plunge into another season and the realization that things will change plenty.
Below I've ranked my top 25 prospects for the 2015 NFL draft class, assuming all possible entrants as eligible. If you want to see a breakdown by position, I've also ranked the top 10 players across every position group. Again, that includes all eligible players.
I'll keep scouting reports consistent week to week throughout the season and only make changes regarding recent performances, unless my evaluation shifts. That said, let's dive back into "the process" and another season.
An asterisk denotes a junior for the 2014 season; two asterisks denote a redshirt sophomore.
1. **Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State Seminoles
A product of both special instincts for the position and good training, Winston's natural gifts are clear -- size, arm strength, athleticism -- but so is the ability to manipulate the pocket, see pressure early and deliver the ball to the right target. Winston does have areas to improve, however, with consistent ball placement a notable one. His off-field decision-making will be scrutinized as well, and that will certainly factor into his draft status when he declares, which might not be in 2015.

"The labor contract trumps the charter," Luken chided City Council. "Those who support labor laws so loudly in these chambers should recognize that."
During the campaign two years ago for Issue 5, its backers misled voters by stating the amendment wouldn't affect the existing contract with the police union, the mayor added.
A Council majority, however, sharply disagreed. You will concur that however uncomplicated is your buy a house, as both sides don't have any true blue issues joined with them, you ought to face a gigantic measure of veritable strategies in sort of reports, which are flooding with dazing legitimate communicating. Council Member Pat DeWine, one of the chief architects of Issue 5, replied that the only claim made during the campaign was that the proposal wouldn't affect existing workers, only applying to new hires.
Regardless, the contract being disputed now is a contract negotiated after Issue 5 was approved, not the contract in existence at the time, DeWine said. In light of current circumstances, you may unite major parts or may misconceive a thought with respect to them, and may later come into muddlings."This is all about a new union contract negotiated after Issue 5 passed," he said. "What happened is the administration agreed to negotiate a contract (provision) that violates Issue 5, and that made us vulnerable on that point."
"The reality is, we lost on appeal, in large part, because (the city administration) negotiated this," DeWine said. "We ought to be clear about that." It is this time that a normal conveyancing master will be of psyche blowing advantage to watch you from experiencing with superfluous issue.
Luken and City Manager Valerie Lemmie last year mishandled negotiations in several important ways that undermined the city's ability to legally challenge the Fraternal Order of Police over the issue, a City Council majority said: Together with that, she or he handles the true blue matters if any, amidst your buy of home. Thusly you dispose of strain.
Luken and Lemmie shouldn't have agreed to negotiate the issue of how assistant chiefs are hired and fired, which locks the city into accepting the compromise hashed out during the talks. Instead, they should have stood firm and stated from the outset that the matter would go to arbitration, the Council majority said.
Police Chief Thomas Streicher Jr. — an ardent Issue 5 opponent — shouldn't have represented the city during negotiations with the union. Amidst the complex lawful activities, conveyancing competent will help you, on the grounds that a conveyancer's dedication is to guarantee the avidness of the buyer particularly. Streicher's involvement likely violates a state law that prohibits people from negotiating on behalf of a public employer if that person has an interest in the negotiation's outcome that is contrary to the employer's stance, the Council members said.

Gallery: Infinity Mirror Room: Yayoi Kusama Unveils Dazzling Space Lit ...
London's Tate Modern just debuted a stunning new art installation by Yayoi Kusama that consists of hundreds of low-energy LED lights reflected by wall-to-wall mirrors. Dubbed the Infinity Mirror Room, the exhibit is a spectacular spacial void brimming with sparkling lights that dazzle and amaze visitors.
Yayoi Kusama's work often obsessively repeats motifs such as patterns of polka-dots – for example the Obliteration Room in Brisbane – or the reflected lights in her new piece entitled "Infinity Mirror Room – Filled with the Brilliance of Life". The Tate Modern's new retrospective recognizes these signature themes in the 82-year-old Japanese artist's work. Having lived as a voluntary resident in a psychiatric hospital for almost 40 years, Kusama creates work that completely envelops the viewer. The exhibition will run through June 5, 2012. For more information visit the Tate Modern website.

Hung at regular intervals high above the built environment, LED luminaries can sense information about the ambient environment—CO2 and other gas concentrations, the movement of goods and objects, and other distributed events—and backhaul that information through the Sensity NetSense LSN. The LSN is a new networking platform that enables lighting owners to optimize their LED investments to power other technologies, such as video cameras and networking equipment.

planting cover for fence in shade
Hi, I live in Maryland zone 6B. I have an ugly east facing green trellis fence in the backyard that is in partial to full shade due to overhanging cedars. I'd like to cover this with something "vine like" that is relatively dense to block out the neighbor's adjacent fence but don't want anything too wide like a shrub as the space is limited. The space is about 100ft long so cost is a factor. The height is 5-6 ft. Evergreen or something close is preferable to provide screen in fall and winter as well. Thanks.
Ivy is evergreen and fast growing, can grow in sun or shade. But rampant growth may be a problem. You will need to check from time to time that it doesn't invade nearby trees or flowerbeds.
There is also hydrangea petiolaris. You will get white flowers in late summer. This will get thick vines as it gets larger, so will need some good support that can take the weight. I read it can be a bit slow to get going when first planted, but have no experience with it. Have seen it growing on a stone fence at work. Looks really nice. The spent flowers provide late season interest as well.

Sorry, the hydrangea won't be evergreen. Here's a link I found that lists some evergreen vines. You'll need to research them and find out if they will work for your zone and their potential for being a thug.
