Economics & Finance
October Tue 16, 2012
We know all about the difference between the BTP (Italian bonds) and the ten-year Bunds, or almost all about it. We know that the spread did not like the Berlusconi government (well beyond the 500 basis points last November), while the indicator has welcomed the Monti Government, at least at the beginning (between 278 and 330 basis points in March), which was also galvanized at the words of Mario Draghi, the President of the European Central Bank, to the point of appreciating beyond even the rumors that preceded (from 450 basis points in late August to 354 on Sept. 7, the day after the announcement of the purchase of Italian sovereign bonds by the ECB).We know everything, but not what really matters. What really matters is that, in times of particular volatility of the market, the price discovery, the mechanism of price formation (or differential, in our case) may be strongly influenced by the listing of the most popular credit derivatives, the Credit Default Swap (CDS), traded in unregulated markets and thus basically removed from the control of the authorities and the central banks. Looking at the spread and not at what is happening on the CDS market is like looking at the finger instead of the moon at which it is pointing.Born for hedging purposes, the CDS is a kind of insurance policy that, behind the periodic payment of a premium, guarantees the buyer an agreed amount if the issuer of the security in the contract fails. To illustrate this point, if I held ten million dollars in BOT or BTP and I were to fear the default of the Italian State, I could buy a CDS and ensure the ten million or, what commonly happens, a fraction of the ten million. If the Italian State were to fail, the person who sold me the CDS, typically a big bank, would pay me the insured amount. The greater the likelihood of default of the security, the higher the premium that the buyer is required to pay periodically to the seller.The problem is that, over time, instead of hedging tools, CDSs have become mostly speculative instruments. This means that the market rules allow the purchase of what are technically called naked CDS, i.e. CDS written on securities that the buyer does not have. In other words, it is as if you were to enter into a fire insurance policy not on your car, but on that of neighbor without his knowledge. It would not be so strange, then, to see you wandering around the car with a can of gasoline, which would probably not be used to fill the tank…

Product description
Each spread focuses on one destination, and the intricate artwork gives readers a visual flavour of the place, with masses to look at and discover the more you look. There are links from one place to the next - historical, geographical, natural history or just simple proximity - for example, there is an ancient Egyptian obelisk in NY's central park, with two sister obelisks in Paris and London. Find the one in the Central Park using Google [trademark] Earth co-ordinates and it gives you the clue to where you will be going next. The pyramids at the Louvre in Paris will whisk you off to the temples of Ancient Egypt, then find a connection from the Colosseum of Ancient Rome to the hot plains of Tanzania that team with wildlife, from flocks of flamingos to herds of wildebeest to prides of lions. And so on...In each location you have to find a souvenir to take with you. You will also need to solve a puzzle with the help of Google [trademark] Earth to collect co-ordinates for your final secret location - again on Google [trademark] Earth. For instance, the puzzle tells you to visit the Statue of Liberty on Google [trademark] Earth and to count the number of points on its crown. This number is one of the co-ordinates you need to find your final destination on Google [trademark] Earth at the end of the book.

Review quote
Publishers WeeklyIntegrating print with electronic media, each spread of this interactive time-jumping, globe-hopping book contains digitally rendered illustrations of a world location, along with corresponding Google Earth coordinates. . . . In addition to browsing the locations online, the book offers numerous puzzles, games, and seek-and-find questions. Kirkus ReviewsGifford's language is crisp and engagingly friendly as he proceeds to explain the book's game format . . . The canny sense of place the book imparts and its encouragment to let Google Earth guide you to other realms (both terrestrial and celestial) [is overwhelming].

Appearance Tab Like Function?
So there are a lot of cool armors and Kits in this game. I really like that each class has it's own unique style and each kit has it's own look that gets more added to it as it levels. BUT..... What happens when i'm max level? All those additions become way too bulky and impractical. Now i know that some people will bring up the disable visuals feature. I know it's there, i like it, it's cool, and i use it. But what i would much prefer is something that let me pick which look they had.
Lotro has is, DCUO has the option, i'm sure there are more out there but let's keep it simple. I'd love to be able to have the Functionality of my MK X kits WITHOUT that weird Bulk shoulder armor the tacs are stuck with. I would love for my engineer to not be toting around a huge backpack (although my Dr looks awesome in the Holoarmor for Science). Can't i keep the Functionality of those kits but choose the look of a lower level kit? Some of those kits had an awesome yet simplistic look that would look perfect on my captain.
Would it be possible to add this feature to the tailor? To keep it simple it could be an option field that let you Choose the kits appearance based on Rank rather than individual kits getting their own separate field. That way no matter which kit you eqquipped it still looked like the captain level kit or the lieutenant commander level kits.
Does any one else want to wear a less bulky and awkward looking kit with out losing the Functionality of their rank? I'm curious as to what you think.

Lubin decides to transfer
UConn's frontcourt depth took a hit with the news that forward Rakim Lubin plans to transfer after just one season in Storrs.
UConn junior Niels Giffey's season is over.
The news is not a surprise.
Giffey fractured his right index finger in Saturday's loss at Cincinnati.
Coach Kevin Ollie told me on Monday that he didn't expect Giffey would return for the final two games.
UConn made it official on Tuesday afternoon after arriving in Florida. The Huskies will play South Florida in Tampa at 9 p.m. on Wednesday.
"We're looking at what the doctor says, but I don't see it with a fracture," Ollie said Monday night. "It's pretty tough, especially on his shooting hand."
Ollie made the comments while attending the Glastonbury-New London Class LL tournament game. He was watching his son, Jalen, who plays for Glastonbury, which lost 59-58.
Giffey played a key role off the bench, averaging 4.9 points and 3.6 rebounds. He will not need surgery. It will take him about six to 10 weeks to heal, according to UConn.
Ollie isn't optimistic about junior Shabazz Napier playing Wednesday. Napier will be a game day decision. He continues to receive treatment on his sore right foot. He also is still wearing a walking boot.
Napier had his streak of playing in 102 consecutive games snapped when he sat out againstCincinnati. He didn't practice Tuesday.
"It is still sore to touch," Ollie said of Napier's foot. "We'll see what he has coming up at nine o'clock (Wednesday) and see if he can go. (Team trainer) James (Doran) is doing a great job with his rehabilitation."
If Napier can't play, R.J. Evans of Salem will make his second straight start.
"R.J. is going to be a facilitator out there, a guy that can be our rock," Ollie said, "and help with some of the ball handling responsibilities for Ryan (Boatright)."

Being Pro-Voter is Not Partisan: 2010 Results Underscore how Republicans should not Fear Same-Day Voter Registration
- Posted: November 22, 2010
- Author(s): , Rob Richie
- Categories: Right to Vote Amendment, FairVote
Upholding fair voter access and protecting voting rights should not be a partisan issue. In our decentralized system, however, some states do a better job at protecting these rights than others. Take for instance, the issue of Same Day Voter Registration (SDR); a sensible reform when implemented well which all too often has been inaccurately thought to advantage one major party (Democrats) at the expense of another (Republicans).

FairVote policy proposals for instant runoff voting (IRV) and the National Popular Vote plan (NPV) had a particularly big July. Massachusetts became the sixth state to enact NPV - see Rob Richie's commentary for YES magazine and Jules Leconte's review of the win and widepsread media coverage, including an oped from Michael Dukakis. Charter comissions in Maine's biggest city (Portland) and Tennessee's biggest county (Shelby) voted overwhelmingly to place IRV on the november ballot, while the preliminary report of New York City's charter commission recommended IRV for mayor, as backed by Rob Richie in the New York Times. New jurisdictions holding IRV elections this year include Oakland (mayor) and North Carolina (three judicial elections), while FairVote's Cathy Le explains Australia's upcoming national IRV election. An oped by FairVote's Alec Slatky calling for IRV in Alabama primaries drew interest from political leaders, while Politico also ran a Slatky-Richie oped on IRV... Read more

We like the steaks, we order the house steak. Service is good, pleasant staff always ready to please.
best steak I ever had. The waiter was great and attentive despite the busy-ness. Definitely going to return and grab a beer and burger. wow. really loved it
The first thing as we entered the restaurant was the strong odor of a dirty mop I guess used to clean the floors. Too embarrassed to say something or leave, we stayed for dinner which was just ok. Truefully when we occasionally go to Outback we go to the one in the Palisades Mall in Nanuet and enjoy it.
The place was a bit dirty and dingy. Service was very good and the food OK. Was convenient to my hotel. Will try something different next time I'm in town.
I love going there with friends and family. The steak is always great and you can't find pricing this low anywhere. If the servers ever make a mistake, they always fix it. Can't wait to go back :)
One of many visits. Consistent. Good value, service. Low key. Huge menu with something for everyone. Staff is attentive and knowledgeable.
I come here a few times a year. Another quality franchise restaurant chain- delivering the corporate formula. Good value steaks- specially the Victoria Fillet is good value for money. Service is usually cheerful. Dependable Outback Steakhouse- same everywhere in the world and no different here.
We have always enjoyed the Outback. Food is good and price is reasonable. Service is good as well. You can always expect consistency at the Outback. I am rating very good due to consistency and price, do not expect HIGH quality food.
In walking distance to our hotel. Parking garage is next door. Friendly staff. Large menu and fast service. I will go back there again.
The food could be better, service needs improvement no one asked how my food was or anything. I had to hunt my waiter down for the bill, maybe it was a busy night but service should always be on top.

Recessed- Baffle or directional trim??
I am trying to decide on recessed lighting for my kitchen and family room. What are the pros and cons of the baffle verus the directional trim?
Picking recessed lighting and trim is soo much fun (not!) It is my understanding that baffle trim and directional trim are two very different things. Baffle trim is used for generally lighting purpose and directional trim is used for accent lighting. Directional trim can be either a gimble type or an eyeball type. The difference is in the way they rotate and the degree of the angle the can be adjusted. I have a recessed light in my dinette area that has a gimble trim and is used to light a large piece of artwork on the wall. In my great room, I have two 4 inch cans that have eyeball trim which shine on my fireplace/mantle.
Besides baffle trims there are also reflector trims. Baffle trims reduce glare but also reduce light output. Reflector trims give off more light but there might be more glare. Reflector trims are also called specular or the trade name Alzak. Reflector trims come in different finishes such as wheat haze, satin nickel, clear and others. I initially bought wheat haze for my kitchen but it made the light too warm colored for my kitchen and I exchanged them for satin nickel. It made a big difference in my kitchen. Ceiling height, room size and number of cans are all factors to be considered
Here is a brief explanation I found for trims:
Q) When should a baffle trim be used?
A) Baffle trims, or stepped baffle trims, have concentric circular grooves inside the cone that surrounds the lamp. Use a baffle trim when you want to minimize glare coming from the light fixture.
Q) When should a reflector trim be used?
A) Reflector trims have smooth, shiny cones surrounding the lamp to reflect the light. Use it when you want to maximize the amount of light coming from the recessed fixtures.
Q) What is the purpose of an adjustable trim?
A) It allows the lamp inside the recessed fixture to be aimed at something like a sculpture or a wall hanging and, thereby, provide good accent lighting. Adjustable trims can rotate, revolve, and/or swivel. They can also provide good task lighting; for example, as a "reading light" over your bed.
After you figure out the trim you can move on to the fun of picking out the correct bulbs for your recessed lights. They come in different color temperatures (2,700K, 3,000K etc.), different lumens and different color rendering (CRI) regardless of whether they are incandescent, CFL, halogen or LED.
Good luck in your quest for the perfect lighting

Early Italian Purple
I could hardly believe my eyes when I noticed my early garlic was starting to scape. Don't recall that it happens this soon in the year, but "recalling" is a cloudy subject with me at times.
We had what I consider a mild Winter this year with plenty of rain. We are just a smidgeon over average for the year now. I remembered to fertilize at the right times so perhaps it is just a collision of good husbandry with ideal conditions for the variety. It would be great to harvest the first week of June.
What's going on in other people's garlic patch?
Hardnecks here are way behind the purples. Korean Red is a bit ahead of the German White, but still a good way to go on those.
It hasn't stopped raining here. Generally, we are done by the end of April or earlier. Had to go out and harvest the first two beds of purple from soaking wet soil. It was way beyond time to harvest, unfortunately, and a fair number were sprouting and had split covers. Still have 2/3 of this variety to take today before the next set of showers materialize (here's hoping they don't.)
Increasing the spacing and consistent feeding made for some pretty big bulbs, but I will not discount Mother Nature's contribution of abundant rainfall to my success.
I started snapping scapes on May 30, a good week earlier than last year (which was cool and wet). Took most of them yesterday and filled three bags for the refrigerator - only about 80 left. Also started scheduling a series of barbecues for June - my friends wait anxiously for scape season.
The garlic plants are still all green and I expect to start harvest in another 3-4 weeks.
Here is a link to some photos of this year's crop:
Thank you, I was pleased with what I got this year, but, of course, Mother Nature had more to do with it than I did.
And yes, I did start to wash them after I got all the Italian Purple in and noticed how dirty the roots were because I had to harvest when the soil was still soaking wet.
The Late Italian, Korean Red and German variety were all washed and they are so much prettier and also a lot less mess in the house.
I sell between 20 and 30 lbs. Grew more this year than last, got a better yield and will probably have more than last year to sell. Give a lot away to friends, take a lot to work and may make a donation to our food bank which has a free farmers' market once a month all summer for anyone who needs help.

Greensburg Salem School District struggles with reducing class sizes
Greensburg Salem administrators will present a proposal to school directors next week on how to remedy large class sizes in elementary schools.
During a presentation Wednesday, administrators said 16 classrooms in the district's three elementary schools have 25 or more students in a classroom, including 30 children at James H. Metzgar.
"We think 30 in a room is too many," Superintendent Eileen Amato told directors.
A tight budget has hampered directors' efforts to lower class sizes along with lack of space at Amos K. Hutchinson.
Last month, two parents who also are teachers in other school districts, questioned directors about class sizes at Robert F. Nicely.
Directors discussed on Wednesday various options to try to ease the class sizes, including hiring more teacher assistants and more teachers.
President Nat Pantalone pushed for more hirings.
"That's our job. That's the whole thing we do: educate kids," Pantalone said.
Other directors expressed financial concerns. They believe the district will be in a financial bind next year.
Both Amato and Ashley Nestor, coordinator of elementary education, said they would love to have smaller class sizes. But there is a financial side to running a school district, they acknowledged.
"I'd give anything to have 19, 20 kids in a class," Nestor added.
The district has tried to ease the situation at schools by using support personnel, she added.
Director Ronald Mellinger said all directors would like to see smaller classes, "but the only thing we can control is personnel (costs)."
He agreed 30 children in a classroom is too many.
Director Lee Kunkle said he would like to see any changes done consistently at the schools.
"What we do for one, we have to do for all," he added.
Business manager James Meyer estimated a classroom assistant would cost $29,000 for the 132 days left in the school year, while a teacher would cost about $38,000.
Nicely and Hutchinson have two assistants; Metzgar has one after a resignation, based on the discussion.

where to buy Gardenia 'First Love' with better price?
Gardenia "First Love" is not an ever bloomer. However, this Japanese originated breed has very large, fully double flower (like a white rose). I checked wayside garden, the price is a little too high. Does anyone know any place that I can buy these with better price?
Hi schic - First Love or Aimee gardenia is as you described...white rose. The bloom on this is sparse (for me), but the size of each bloom makes up for it. I found mine at our local nursery for 8.99 in one gallon pots. Later, Home Depot had theirs for $4.69 per gallon size. I hope you'll find your source for this wonderful gardenia.
Do you have both cultivars in your yard? I suspect these two cultivars are related. There is another one called Miami Supreme. I guess the differences come down to details such as the center height of newly fully opened flower, and the total petal count.
Hi Shic - I planted three Aimee/First Love in the ground last summer. The gophers got two and the single remaining plant is still alive. My G.Mystery is in a pot and something is chewing up the leaves. Maybe it's the same bug that is chewing up my Brugmansia leaves? I'm good at watering but not with spraying insecticide stuff.
The plants in the above photo are Mexican butterworts (in this case, either Pinguicula esseriana or P. ehlersiae), not monster buttercups! :-) They do quite well in normal household conditions and do not need high humidity. They respond well to mild fertilization and can often adapt to tap water as long as it is not treated city water. Certainly nothing difficult about them. Though they do not have the lovely fragrance of a gardenia, they do help control fungus gnat populations indoors.
Butter worts(or Pincuigula) are very easy as ispahan has said. they can be true gems and come in so many varieties and colors! here are few of mine that i no longer have... :(
P. jaumavensis
and P. agnata
carnivorous plants are just a great category of plants. they are always showy, unlike orchids. and plus. they eat! :)

This is going on in my Sept 2009 Birth group, it hilarious and a good way to vent. Basically, say what you wish you had the nerve to say, don't forget the "no offense, but" part! Have at it ladies.... Here's mine...
No offense but... I know I had a baby in September so I was pregnant all summer, I don't need you to remind me how hot it got. Why do you want to hear my birth story, you are a stranger!
I realize it looks like he spits up a lot after he eats, nothing is wrong with him, he is an EBF 20lb 4 month old, believe me he is eating enough. I don't give him solids and I don't plan to until DS is 6 months old, I'm glad it worked out for your kids, now let me raise mine.
He's not spoiled, he just can't talk so if he cries I respond! No you can't touch my baby! No I'm not bringing him to work when half the people in here are coughing and sneezing! No I'm not going to give him water. No I don't want to read any of the parenting books you are recommending you passive agressive beotch!
Whew, always feels good to get stuff off your chest!

Few coaches would argue the point that there was not a better post tandem in District 3-AAA boy's basketball this season than Campbell County's dynamic duo of Sean Chapman and Cody Malicoat.
Chapman, a 6-foot-8 senior forward, averaged 17 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.6 blocked shots per game this year.
Jacksboro Middle School's girls ended a spectacular season with an appearance last week in the East Tennessee Sectional Basketball Tournament at Sevierville.
The Lady Eagles (19-3 overall) were eliminated 48-31 by Johnson City Science Hill in the quarterfinals. Jamie Mynatt led Jacksboro with 18 points, followed by Whitney Williamson with eight. Mynatt was selected to the All-East Tennessee Team for her efforts.
Tianna Tarter led Science Hill with 18 points.
Caryville Youth Baseball sign-ups will be held on Saturday, Feb. 27 at the Caryville Municipal Building from 10 a.m. -noon. Also, sign-ups are available at Caryville Elementary School, Jacksboro Elementary School and Caryville City Hall. There will be a coaches meeting on Monday, March 1 at 6:30 p.m. at the Caryville Municipal Building.
All coaches must attend.
Campbell County High School's boys will find themselves in familiar territory when the District 3-AAA Basketball Tournament tips off this week.
The Cougars, who were seeded fifth a year ago before upsetting Knoxville teams West and Central en route to the championship game, are seeded sixth this season. Campbell County opens tournament play at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow (Fri.) night against archrival Anderson County in one of two games scheduled at Clinton High School. The remainder of the tournament will be held next week at Knox Halls.
After winning District 2-A regular season and league tournament championships in 2009, Jellico High School's boys had a tougher time this year after moving to District 4.
The Blue Devils (9-3 district, 16-9 overall) are seeded third going into this week's district tournament at Wartburg.
A pair of 1,000-point career scorers are Campbell County's representatives this year on the Girl's All-District 3-AAA Basketball Team.
Seniors Jessica Moore and Candice
Seiber were chosen to the team last week by the league coaches after leading the Lady Cougars (10-6 district, 17-10 overall) to a third place regular season finish.
Moore, a 5-foot-8 guard who has signed to play college basketball next year for Campbell University, passed the 1,000-point mark earlier this season.
There are worse things than finishing third in the district.
Ryan Browning, the girl's basketball coach at Campbell County High School, was envisioning a nightmare scenario after his team started the season with a 1-4 record.
However, with the steady leadership of seniors Jessica Moore, Candice Seiber and Lindsay Evans, the Lady Cougars quickly regrouped to win 16 of their next 22 games and grab the third seed going into this week's District 3-AAA Tournament at Knox Halls.
Campbell County High School's girls picked up a bittersweet victory Tuesday night at Knox Halls.
The Lady Cougars won the game, 57-55, on Jessica Moore's free throws with 8.2 seconds left.
However, the triumph was overshadowed by an injury to sophomore point guard Courtney Morris, who was hurt halfway through the second quarter. Morris went down with a possible lower back injury at the 4:28 mark and had to be carted off on a stretcher. Campbell County was leading 14-13 at the time.
Nick Litton may have found himself a new position on the basketball court.
The 6-foot-3 Campbell County High School sophomore answered the call of duty Monday night when asked to guard Anderson County's top gun, Tyler Smith.
Litton held Smith to only four points in the second half of the Cougars' 61-59 victory, but he did much more than shadow the Mavericks' star player. Litton finished with 13 points to provide valuable offensive punch for a team that has often struggled to score from the perimeter this season.
Senior forward Thomas Ridenour scored 17 of his game-high 25 points, including a trio of 3-pointers, in the second half Thursday night to lead the Jellico High School boy's basketball team to a 68-55 win over visiting District 4-A rival Oneida.
The victory allowed the Blue Devils (8-3 district, 14-8 overall) to avenge a 61-56 overtime loss at Oneida on Jan. 23.

Sanjayan: There's a Better Way to Communicate about Climate Change
The Orion Magazine blog put up this week an excellent post by Conservancy lead scientist Sanjayan on how his recent trip to Santiago — and the recent, two-day disappearance of that city's otherwise plentiful water supply — has catalyzed his thinking about how scientists can better communicate the effects of climate change.
While global warming was almost certainly a cause of Santiago's taps suddenly running dry, Sanjayan writes for Orion that he was surprised there to find that "no one has asked me specifically about climate change — about parts-per-billion, about carbon markets, about a carbon tax, about pipelines, or Kyoto, Copehhagen, or Doha — all the ways U.S. environmentalists and journalists often talk about it."
Instead, Santiago's residents wanted to talk about…water supply. So he quickly pivoted to focus on the water issue itself — on a local concern — and conservation measures for the watershed, while avoiding lectures about necessary behavior changes related to emissions. And through this approach, he found people receptive to hearing about climate change.
It's a fresh and flexible look at why audience-sensitive science communications actually works. Anyone tired of the counterproductive rhetoric and approaches that have dominated climate comms for the last two decades will welcome the model Sanjayan puts forward here.

Where are people ordering grain online? I just got a mill and would like to find a cheaper source of grain, now paying about $80/55lbs for pale ale malt. I brew mostly English beer but willing to consider what people think are good subs.
I use Northern Brewer, but I don't know how their prices compare. I don't buy 55# sacks, though...if I get those, I buy through my LHBS.
"You never can tell with bees." --Winnie the Pooh
Try this link. They have a warehouse in the Northeast and another warehouse in Chicago. Our homebrew club ordered a pallet of grain from them. Great service.Home Brewers
Looks like shipping is going to kill me.
This might be a good deal for you if you can handle 4 bags:200 pounds of 2-row
The shipping is $6.99 for your entire order now matter how much you buy.
I get 2-Row at the local Brewpub $30 for 50lbs.

The cover of McClinton's new CD shows the ironic lad leaning forward like an uncle you can trust. McClinton runs through 12 solid numbers, all of them original, all sounding like standards. Without so much as breaking a sweat, Clinton achieves the kind of effortless, whistle-smooth Texas honk that Jagger & Co. hire trainers to achieve.
"Same Kind of Crazy" illustrates the story of another in a long line of Texas iconoclasts who discovers, to his delight, a mate who echoes his every fault and fancy. "Smooth Talk" is a "Get Off My Cloud" finger wag at media hype-ocrisy and cultural hard-sell, while "Jungle Room" is devil-child glee, Cramps Lite, a juke joint jingle.
Along the way, McClinton succumbs to a Texas orgy barnstormer ("Lone Star Blues") featuring everybody from Steve Earle to Ray Benson, and a proud and heartfelt ode to Manhattan ("New York City") that makes it sound as though McClinton loved the grandest borough even before 9/11.
McClinton is a uniquely American blueblood. Long may he reign.
