DEFINITION of 'Fixed Income Forward'
A contract to buy or sell a fixed income security, in the future, at a price agreed upon today. The price of a fixed income forward contract is calculated by subtracting the present value of coupon payments over the life of the contract from the bond price, and compounding this by the risk free rate over the life of the contract. The value of the contract is the bond price less the present value of coupons less the present value of the price that will be paid at expiration.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Fixed Income Forward'
Investors use options contracts for fixed income securities in order to lock in a bond price now, while buying or selling the security itself in the future. The risk in holding fixed income forward contracts is that market interest rates for the underlying bonds can increase or decrease, which affects the bond's yield and thus its price. Forward rates then become the focus of investor attention, especially if the market for the fixed income security is considered volatile.
Profiting from a fixed income forward depends on which side of the contract the investor is on. A buyer enters the contract hoping the market price of the bond will be higher in the future, since the difference between the contracted price and the market price represents profit. The seller hopes that the bond price will fall.
While the number of coupon payments for the life of the bond may exceed the life of the contract, only the payments during the contract period are considered. This is because some bonds will have maturities much longer than the duration of the contract, and contract participants are hedging for price movements over a shorter period of time.

Published by Lillenas Publishing Company (LP.765762115323). Come and See is an invitation for each of us to experience Jesus as He enters Jerusalem; to witness His betrayal by a friend; to endure with Him the suffering and death of a sinless Savior; and finally to behold His empty tomb. Through the eyes" of a blind beggar, we're taken through these events and more by way of a powerful and moving dramatic script, and energetic choral arrangements carefully designed for smaller choirs by two-time Dove Award winning writers, Dennis and Nan Allen. With a run time of 36 minutes, this dramatic musical includes popular worship songs "Come and See" and "Sing to the King" and the classic Wayne Watson song "Friend of a Wounded Heart." Also included is a beautiful arrangement of the hymn "I Saw the Cross" and a new tune to the great hymn text "Beneath the Cross of Jesus." Musically, this work is highlighted by settings that any choir can comfortably attain. Several opportunities for congregational involvement are included. For the full drama version, a small cast is required, and Nan Allen has written creative and very useful production notes to assist in both staging and costuming. The narrator version requires two narrators and is equally moving. This Easter, come and see what Jesus did for you."Professional performance recording. Use to study and/or learn the music, or for personal enjoyment and meditation times. (Not an accompaniment CD.).

Allegations counter vow of becoming role model
THE last time Jason Stein was in court, he vowed never to touch drugs again and become a role model for young people.
But eight years later, he was back in court, alleged to have committed a string of store thefts and robberies to feed a drug habit.
Stein, 41, was given bail Monday on condition he remain at a local Christian-faith drug-treatment program.
"We know (Stein) made some mistakes but this is somebody who wants some consideration," Steve Paulson, executive director of Teen Challenge, told court on behalf of Stein.
Stein broke down in tears as Paulson pleaded for the court to release him into the rigid Teen Challenge program until his matters can be dealt with at a trial.
"There really is a good person there," Paulson said.
Stein was arrested last month after it's alleged he was involved in a series of crimes between February 2012 and June 2013, involving thefts from drugstores, grocery stores and several electronic stores where expensive mobile phones were stolen.
An alleged incident in April had Stein and a co-accused loading up a grocery cart at a Superstore with flat-screen TVs and walking out. Then, it's alleged Stein went back in a few minutes later and carried out a $900 flat-screen TV.
Crown prosecutor Eric Hachinski opposed Stein's release, arguing he had been picked up and released four times during that crime spree and had repeatedly broken terms of his release.
Defence counsel Steven Keesic told court Stein was able to stay drug-free and out of trouble from 2004 to 2012, because of his involvement with Teen Challenge, but he slipped because of his addictions.
Stein's drug problems originated when he was shot and nearly killed during a dispute over ownership of a snowmobile in May 2000. He required 14 surgeries. His arm was permanently disfigured and he struggled with severe physical and emotional pain.
That led to a string of 24 cocaine-fuelled robberies in 2003 that brought him to court in April 2005.
He got a one-year sentence after telling the court that while awaiting trial in the Teen Challenge program, he had found Jesus, had beaten his drug habit and was a changed man.
"I made the choice to never touch drugs again," Stein told the court in April 2005. "I made the decision to accept Christ in my life.
"I didn't do this for the courts. I did this because I wasn't proud of who I was."
After serving his one-year sentence, Stein returned to work at Teen Challenge but left the program in 2009.
Keesic described Teen Challenge as operating a strict program, with a 24-hour curfew, security cameras and alarms and a record of reporting individuals who breached conditions.
Provincial court Judge Tim Killeen said the Crown had a strong case, with security-video surveillance or witness identifications for all the crimes Stein is alleged to have committed.

As a result when I run cp -r folder1 /media/ntfs/ it copies all the files in folder1 except for file.zip. the ls -al for file.zip is -rwx------ file.zip . I have tried sudo chmod go+r and it doesn't work. Does anyone know how I can change the permissions on file.zip so that I can copy it over? Thanks (HowTos)

Last names may be a hot topic for wedding-planning couples, but many parents-to-be find themselves revisiting it when discussing what to name baby. Even if you and your partner decided to keep your own last names, you may reconsider the surname for the product of the two of you.
For some families, deciding on a last name for baby is as difficult as coming up with a first. Many parents strive to have their child's name maintain connections to family history; others choose accordingly to sever those ties. Some families look at surnames more practically -- they feel adamantly about a first name ("Ilene") but it doesn't work with the last ("Dover").

What is this, and how do I not kill it?
I got this as a cutting from my sister, who got it from her neighbor. I've potted it, and it's putting out new growth, but can someone tell me what it is, and what it likes? And any other info you might have? I've got another cutting that I'd like to pot or give away.
It's a schefflera arboricola. Bright light, let it dryout between waterings. I hope you potted it in well draining soil not some heavy stuff. Be careful of hot afternoon sun...the leaves might get burned with almost white like bleached dry spots.
If its in a window turn it a bit each week otherwise the new growth will lean towards sun.
Its commonly called umbrella tree.
You can search this forum and should be lots of discussions.
I have one just like it. They don't require a lot of light, mine is in a bright room and gets a little direct sun in the late afternoon, but it's across the room from the window the sun is coming in.
Mine is a slow grower. Getting maybe 4 new leaves per year.
I water it when it's dry approx every 2 weeks. I also use VF-11 with each watering. Mine is in a fast draining soil as suggested.
Good luck,
I just put it in plain old miricle gro potting soil. The other start I haven't potted yet, but it's put out even more growth than the one that is (it has no discernible roots yet, which is why I haven't potted it.) I'm definitely NOT a house plant expert by any stretch, so I appreciate all your help!
Oh no, not just plain old miracle grow. That is so heavy.
It will hold the moisture longer and your plants will rot.
You need to lighten the soil up with some perlite so it will drain. You also don't want a lot of peat in your soil.
Most people don't have much luck with that soil.
You should be able to find Perlite at Home Depot, Lowes or OSH.
It will probably be Miracle Grow brand and thats ok. I used to see Schultz but not anymore. It might have a light fertilizer in it so don't fertilize your plant for a while. If you can get it at a nursery with no fertilizer that would be better. A nursery should definately have it especially if they sell houseplants. Don't let them sell you Vermiculite...its not the same.
Not sure about brand names in your area, but any soil that isn't really fine and heavy like MG and also one that doesn't have a lot of peat in it should do. A good bag will tell you the percentages.
Definately don't buy garden or topsoil either.
Whatever you get, most likely mixing with about 25%-40% Perlite should be good.

Tomato leaves turning brown and crumbly
Every year some of my tomato plants end up with a lot of leaves that are brown and crumbly. This is just starting to happen now, most of the plant still looks healthy (the photo shows a Heinz Super Roma plant).
Can anyone identify this problem...I'd like to know if it's enough to just pick off the branches/leaves that are going bad, or if more drastic measures are required.
The rest of your plant looks health. It is possible that that branch was injured (environmentally) or by an insect and subsequently died.
I would prune all such yellowed leaf branches at the first sign. They serve no purpose but possibly a harbor for disease . Just to be on the safe side, I would spray it with fungicide.
I get the same thing on mine, here in S Calif.
I've been picking off the brown yellow leaves and I did spray with a copper spray.
In my case, I had no damaged branches, but upon "Close Inspection" it "seems" like it may be my cages that are causing the problem~~~~I first see the infected leaves that are touching some of the cages I used last year. I wonder if some kind of , kind of~~~~hmmmm , whatever clung on to the cages over our winter, and that's what's buggin my maters, (so to speak), alto it is not "Buggs") per say.
Next year I gonna use something to sterilize those cages as I don't see any of the brown yellow leaves where there are new cages.
I just thought that the cages sitting empty in the Sun would be enough to kill whatever was clinging to them, but "Apparently not".
Anyway, "so far so good" We are having the best tomato year ever, lots of nice big Tasty ones!!!

Logs or coal?
millie0210February 28, 2010
We have recently installed a solid fuel fire. What is the best fuel to use logs or coal, or are there any other eco alternatives?
They are both fake, and made of pretty much the same stuff. So the choice is yours. Logs are usually the choice, and the number of logs options out there far exceeds the number of coal options. But if you see something in coal that really grabs you, and if it is otherwise okay, go with that one.
Come back here if you have more questions.

Bathtub installation - mortar bed vs. adhesive method
Went over the manual for Kohler bathtub (we got Hourglass) today and learned about two options for securing the bathtub to subfloor - one is with cement/mortar bed, the other is with construction adhesives. Would appreciate feedback/insights on the pros and cons for either installation method and recommendation on which method is preferred.
Thanks in advance!!
I prefer the mortar bed method. My view is the mortar pile squishes and spreads out supporting a larger area, which is what you want, IMO. Did this with 2 Kohler showers and a Sanijet whirlpool tub and the support is rock-solid, no flex at all. Just plan the support framing to give the tub maybe a 1" gap underneath for the mortar bed.
Mortar. Full bed support. Easy to level the tub even if the floor is out of whack. You can lay a thicker bed if you need to raise the tub a bit, use a thinner bed if minimial height is desired. For drop-in tubs, set your bed, drop in the tub, then depress the tub until it settles to the deck.
Adhesive...no reason I can recommend it. Well...it's easy. That's one.
I'll jump in because I think you may be under a time crunch.
No advantage. All you're looking for is for a fully conforming yet rigid material that will support the base of the tub.
Flexbond has additives that just are not required in this application.
You can use something like this type of Quikrete. It's a bagged material, a sand/cement mix, that will do the job at a fraction of the price. You'll need a few bags, and it's about $25-$30 less per bag than the Flexbond.
If your floor is level, you need very little. Read the installation instructions, most new tubs have 2 or 3 feet running the length of the tub that fully support the tub along with the framing along the top flange. They actually require no mud bed, but it is recommended because of the reality no floor is perfectly level. If your floor is level, you can trowel down a base of thinset or mortar to set your tub into. It will squish down until it rests on your framing.
The arcylic tubs I install are self supporting on the base and require no mud bed. The mud bed for me is usually only a notched trowel layed on a tad bit heavy. This compensates for any unlevelness. I then set the tub. This method works if you level the floor prior if out of wack. I really never load up the floor with bags of mortar to level. But that is just my way. There are many ways to do the same thing.
Tom and Pete-- some tubs will need to be bedded, and some won't. The ones that DO need it, there's no way around it. They're usually drop in tubs that if not bedded, the flange on which they end up resting will flex everytime someone fills and gets in the tub, and sooner or later that flange will end up weakening and ultimately, snapping off, if the tub isn't properly bedded.
You need to read the manufacturers installation instructions....this will tell you if it is self supporting or not. In my new Bain tub I am installing, it tells you in the manual that the tub can sit directly on the floor and that a mortar bed is not required.
Like those that have said it before when in doubt, USE MORTAR. These plumbers don't want to do it because it takes time or because they had to cut a hole in your subfloor to put in the drain on some of these drop in models. Depending on how you plan to finish the edge around your tub is when I advocate for mortar. If your tub is a drop in & you plan on using "ceramic tile" around it, definately MORTAR in the tub. Ceramic tile pieces do not have flex built into their vocabulary. When they flex, they will BREAK.
If there is a a small hole in your subfloor then you will have to use 6 Mil plastic under your mortar bed put the mortar in & then put layer of 6 Mil plastic over it & then put tub over top the plastic & cement.
This will accomplish two things, it will support the tub & if you EVER need to remove the tub for ANY reason [usuallly a plumbling leak] or work years down the road, you will be able to accomplish the removal with relative ease because of your foresight.
Plastic laminate surrounds will pretty much flex so you can use glue on the feet to get these in. Jacuzzi recommends mortar on their drop in models its in the directions !! Marble is generally immovable but depending on its thickness is where I want to make a judgment.If it is less than 1 inch thick go with Mortar...at 59+ a foot in cost you'll be sorry if you don't :>(
Follow-up question (considering the same install)...
My current tub has the subfloor (2nd floor bathroom) totally cut out between two joists where the drain is located for the entire length of the 5' alcove tub (with no insulation such that I can look down to the garage ceiling on the first floor).
How do I fix this? Insulate and do what to the subfloor?
Plumbing runs below the subfloor height.
What are my options to fix this right with the same kind of Kohler Proflex airtub replacement? Thanks in advance, Jeff.
My tub has supporting blocks and i will go for the adhesive method.
1.the mortar is very heavy and i need 2'' thick because of the blocks; i don't want to add more weight to the structure since the tub is a big one.
2. the mortar under the tub will cool the water very fast; with the mortar i will probably have 30 minutes until the water get cold.
Here is a link that might be useful: trimarts
I have a Kohler cast iron 5' x3' Steeping Whirlpool Tub that I need to remove to install my new 5'x3' Jacuzzi fiberglass tub. My question is; Can I somehow break this cast iron tub to remove it so we don't break our backs while in the process of removing it? We really enjoyed having the Steeping Tub but the porcelain finish has began to chip off & we're to the point where it looks bad so we'll be replacing the tub during the holidays.
It'll be easiest if you can cut it up with a sawzall. You can also create score lines with a grinder and break it up with a sledge.
If you hit it with anything hard...a sledge, etc...cover it with a tarp, protect the floor, and wear protection. You can send shards of cast iron in the most unusual of places. Through a window. Into your thigh. Into your eye.
You really need to assess your abilities and if you proceed, proceed with caution.
If you can get it loose, you may be able to sell. Some salvage or resell places will cart them away without trashing your house in the process.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks mongoct. For those of you that are interested in knowing the progress of my project having to do with the demolition of my cast iron tub..... what a mess. busted three wooden sledge hammer handles & it took me the biggest part of one afternoon. I wasn't in any hurry & because I'm 66 years of age I rested as I managed to break off pieces of the tub. As mentioned earlier by mongoct, shards of cast iron did fly everywhere almost like shrapnel. The tub's out now and it's Jan.19th & we've yet to install our replacement tub. A bigger issue came up & we're having to tent our home for termites, after that we'll install the tub.

The Barton Community College men knew the task was going to be a tough one. After all, Seward Community College came to town ranked No. 3 in the nation in men's tennis. Tuesday at Veterans' Park the Saints showed why.
So my twin boys recently had a late-night 14th birthday bash, and they wanted to watch a scary movie with all of their friends. But there wasn't much to choose from since they're not big fans of horror flicks and anything R-rated was out of consideration from the outset.

(En español: Biopsia)
Say: by-op-see
Sometimes, when doctors are not sure what's wrong with a part of your body, they might decide to do a test called a biopsy. This means they remove a tiny piece and look at it under a microscope. A common kind of biopsy is of the skin, but a doctor also can take a biopsy almost anywhere, including from a muscle, lung, or kidney. The biopsy gives doctors a closer look at what's going on inside and will help make the diagnosis so the doctor can choose the right treatment. A doctor will give you medicine called anesthesia that will keep you comfortable while the biopsy is done.

From utility grids to roadways, water systems and financial instruments, the world's physical infrastructure is rapidly becoming more instrumented and IT-enabled, and corporate data centers will have to deal with a new flood of transactions and data coming from a billion connected people and a trillion connected devices. These offerings will also be aimed at helping clients deal with entirely new kinds of tasks and the colossal data burdens facing the data center.
"Cloud is an important new consumption and delivery model for IT and business services. Large enterprises want our help to capitalize on what this model offers in a way that is safe, reliable and efficient for business," said
The IBM Smart Business portfolio includes three "on-ramps," or ways to quickly deploy the cloud model:
- Smart Business standardized services on the IBM Cloud;
- Smart Business private cloud services behind the firewall built by IBM (run by IBM or the client);
- and IBM CloudBurst service delivery platform, for clients who want to build to their own cloud with pre-integrated hardware and software.
All three offerings include IBM's service management system - a kind of air traffic control system for IT - that automates self-service, provisioning, monitoring as well as managing access and security for the cloud. This reflects IBM's leadership and more than
IBM's portfolio of offerings helps clients standardize IT and business services by type of work and function. The first offerings are optimized for two areas: development and test and virtualized desktops.
IBM Smart Business: Software Development & Test
In many organizations software developers are fast becoming the nucleus of innovation, crucial to all business processes. They build the services and capabilities that will underlie future revenue and generate opportunity. In fact, developers are driving so much business value that the average enterprise devotes 30 to 50 percent of its entire technology infrastructure to development and test, but typically up to 90 percent of it remains idle.(1)
In addition to high cost and low utilization rates, today software developers lose a massive amount of time and productivity getting permissions and access to the systems and tools they need to do their jobs. IBM has seen that safely enabling developers to serve themselves can help reduce IT labor costs by 50 percent, reduce provision cycle times from weeks to minutes and improve quality, eliminating software defects by up to 30 percent.(2)
IBM will offer clients three choices to deploy development and test cloud services:
- Smart Business Development & Test on the IBM Cloud (preview) - IBM software delivery services for the cloud, enabling organizations to free up resources to gain rapid returns on their software investments by levering IBM's secure, scalable cloud delivery model for application lifecycle management
- IBM Smart Business Test Cloud - Private cloud services, behind the client's firewall, built and/or run by IBM
- IBM CloudBurst: a family of pre-integrated hardware, storage, virtualization and networking, with a sophisticated service management system built-in
In its ongoing quest to be competitive, South African financial institution Nedbank is automating business processes through cloud technology.
"The time and labour required to deploy business process automation environments is a pain point. IBM cloud technology has proved to us that we can shorten the provisioning time significantly, reduce our cost and also increase the agility with which we can respond to business demands," said
"As a Fortune 500 company, Sinochem has always had an innovative IT culture to support our business, in sync with
IBM Smart Business: Virtual Desktops
IBM's clients have also successfully leveraged cloud computing to virtualize desktops. Using up to 73 percent less power than traditional desktops and laptops, server-enabled virtualized desktops deliver a better end-user experience and can be more efficiently managed.(3) Based on IBM internal data from client engagements, these solutions can also lower end-user IT support costs by up to 40 percent over traditional desktop environments.
IBM will offer two deployment options to help clients virtualize desktops:
- IBM Smart Business Desktop on the IBM Cloud (preview) - IBM Smart Business Virtual Desktop is delivered via IBM's secure, scalable public cloud
- IBM Smart Business Desktop Cloud - Cloud services delivered via the client's own infrastructure and data center
"Providing cost-effective technology solutions is an ongoing challenge for today's K-12 schools," said
As a result,
IT Gets "Smarter" with Built-in Service Management System
Service management is the operating system of the 21st century, orchestrating thousands of processes and services from physical and digital sources across the world. What the operating system was for the PC era, the service management system will be for IT and business services in the cloud.
Everyday 15 petabytes of new information is generated - more than eight times the information stored in all the libraries in
It is no coincidence that IBM has focused so much of its investment - through acquisitions and in research and development - on developing smarter control and automation technologies. In fact, about half of that investment is on software used to control and automate what you think of as traditional IT, and the other half on getting visibility and control of the trillion connected physical devices -- mobile phone networks, smart utility meters, rail cars - that will be connected to data centers.
IBM Smart Business private cloud services for development & test as well as virtual desktops are available today, while IBM CloudBurst will join WebSphere CloudBurst in the family of pre-integrated systems and will begin shipping on

The list of 'new paradigm' technologies that now surrounds us appears to be at an all time high. From cloud computing and Big Data analytics to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the Internet of Things (IoT), today we have to deal with what the industry likes to call 'paradigm shifts' at every level of IT. This is disruption; of course, we understand that – change is almost always disruptive.

The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

Very nice rugs and a great bargain! The only thing.....the runner and smaller rug are not as brightly colored as the main large rug. They are still very nice and I would buy these again! Very good deal!
It is a very pretty set. Make sure you have room, mine is perfect for the bedroom and looks beautiful and feels great on bare feet. I got it here very quickly along with another rug and pad I had ordered. I don't think you can bet the price and quality for area rugs at Overstock.
This was my first purchase from overstock and the first review I have ever written from an online order. I am SO pleased with this purchase! I recieved the set 3 business days later, absolutely loved the design and although the rugs are not very thick, it is SO worth the money! A great deal for the set and the colors are beautiful. This was a great purchase and I definitely recommend it!!!!
Love these rugs! The quality and colors look great in my living room.
This qas a deal for three rugs. I think they will hold up well, although this is my first experience with rugs
This set was purchased after purchasing 9 other area rugs to cover refinished oak floors in upstairs bedrooms. Each room has a different color and design but all are "oriental" in style. All rugs are synthetic, look great and lie flat. I have purchased numerous household items from OStock and simply cannot beat the price and service. And, Club O is worth the cost if you shop frequently at OStock.
I purchased this rug set to use on recently installed bamboo floor. They look great and the colors will be easy to work with when accessorizing. This is the third time I've purchased these rugs for different rooms in the house and I haven't been disappointed.
Was extremely pleased with my purchase. Shipping costs were excellent.Delivery was right on the money. Quality was great, would highly recommend. Thank You!

We all have difficult decisions to make when setting our line up for the week. Getting into situations where you aren't sure who to play can eat at you all week all the way up to kick off – going back and forth – for this reason or that reason. "Did I pick the right person!?" "Ahhhhhhh!! What do I do?!" Sometimes playing your match ups can serve you well when trying to decide on who to play. Remember not to look too hard into who you play as it normally comes back to bite you in the…you know what. Play your best player, always. If you are trying to decide between Ray Rice and Lamar Miller, or Tom Brady and Alex Smith, you're thinking too much. These stats can help you make that right choice instead of having a battle between yourself during every week of the season. *Standard Leagues – 1 point every 25 passing yards, 4 points per TD, -2 points per interception, 1 point for every 10 rushing and receiving yards, 6 points for every rushing and receiving yards, -2 points per fumble lost See all of our Positional Points Against articles: Quarterbacks | Running Backs | Wide Receivers | Tight Ends | Kickers | Defenses The post Positional Points Against – Defense/ST Week 4 appeared first on FFLockerRoom.

|Beach Baby
|Beach Baby (1974)
The First Class was a British pop music studio-based group, put together by songwriter and record producer John Carter.
The First Class was the studio creation of the British singer-songwriter John Carter, and singers Tony Burrows and Chas Mills, as an outlet for material Carter wrote with his creative partner and wife, Gillian (Jill) Shakespeare. Carter was the veteran of the early 1960s beat music, most notably Carter-Lewis and the Southerners, a band Carter formed with fellow producer Ken Lewis. That band dissolved when Carter and Lewis began working extensively as studio singers, appearing on the hits "It's Not Unusual" (Tom Jones), "I Can't Explain" (The Who), "Hi Ho Silver Lining" (Jeff Beck), "(There's) Always Something There to Remind Me" (Sandie Shaw), "Excerpt From A Teenage Opera" (Keith West) and "Out of Time" (Chris Farlowe). Lewis and Carter formed a vocal harmony band, The Ivy League, that enjoyed three top twenty hits in Britain in 1965: "Tossing and Turning", "That's Why I'm Crying", and "Funny How Love Can Be".
