The chain ladder algorithm is known to provide maximum likelihood (ML) parameter estimates for a model with multiplicative accident period and development period effects, provided that all observations are over- dispersed Poisson (ODP) distributed. Mack (1991a) obtained the ML equations for the corresponding situation in which cells of the data triangle were gamma rather than ODP distributed. These two choices of distribution correspond to the cases p=1 and p=2 when cell distributions are assumed to come from the Tweedie family. Section 3 places these results in a more general context by deriving the ML equations for parameter estimation in the case of a general member of the Tweedie family (p≤0 or p≥1). The intermediate cases, with 1<p<2, represent compound Poisson cell distributions, such as considered by Mack (1991a). While ML estimates are not chain ladder for Tweedie distributions other than ODP, Section 3 indicates why they will be close to chain ladder under certain circumstances. Section 4 also demonstrates that the ML estimates for the general Tweedie case can be obtained by application of the chain ladder algorithm to transformed data. This is illustrated numerically. Section 5 notes that the models underlying the chain ladder and separation methods are the same apart from an interchange of the roles of rows and diagonals of the data set. Consequently, each result on ML chain ladder estimation in Sections 3 and 4 has its counterpart for the separation method. Keywords. Chain ladder, maximum likelihood, separation method, Tweedie distribution 1. Introduction The chain ladder is a widely used algorithm for loss reserving. It is formulated in Mack (1993). From its heuristic beginnings, it was shown to give maximum likelihood (ML) estimates of model parameters (Hachemeister & Stanard, 1975; Mack, 1991a; Renshaw & Verrall, 1998) when: • observations are independently Poisson distributed; and • their means are modelled as the product of a row effect and a column effect. This result was extended from the Poisson to the over-dispersed Poisson (ODP) distribution by England & Verrall (2002). Mack (1991a) considered another model in which observations were gamma distributed, and gave a number of earlier references to the same model. ML parameter estimates were obtained which, while not identical to chain ladder Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 2 estimates, have sometimes been found by subsequent authors (e.g. Wüthrich, 2003) to be numerically similar. The ODP likelihood lies within the Tweedie family (Tweedie, 1984), a subset of the exponential dispersion family (Nelder & Wedderburn, 1972). Wüthrich (2003) made a numerical study of ML fitting in the case of Tweedie distributed observations. Again the results were similar to chain ladder estimation. The purpose of the present very brief note is to consider ML estimation in this Tweedie case, to derive the earlier results as special cases of it, and to indicate the reasons for the numerical similarity of their results. 2. Preliminaries Framework and notation The data set will consist throughout of a triangle of insurance claims data. Let i=1,2,…,n denote period of origin, j=1,2,…,n denote development period, and Yij≥0 the observation in the (i,j) cell of the triangle. The triangle of data consists of the set {Yij: i=1,2,…,n; j=1,2,…,n-i+1}. It is assumed that E[Yij] is finite for each (i,j). Define cumulative row sums Sij = ∑jk=1 Yik (2.1) Further, let ∑R(i) xij denote summation over the entire row i of the triangle of quantities xij indexed by i,j, i.e. over cells (i,j) with i fixed and j=1,2,…,n-i+1. Similarly, let ∑C(j) denote summation over the entire column j of the triangle, and let ∑D(k) denote summation over the entire diagonal k. Chain ladder The chain ladder model is formulated by Mack (1991b, 1993) as follows: Assumption CL1: E[Si,j+1 | Si1,Si2…,Sij] = Sij fj, j=1,2,…,n-1, independently of i (2.2) for some set of parameters fj; and also Assumption CL2: Rows of the data triangle are stochastically independent, i.e. Yij and Ykl are independent for i≠k. It may be observed that (2.2) implies E[Sij | Si1] = Si1 f1 f2 ... fj-1 (2.3) or, equivalently, E[Yij] = αiβj (2.4) Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 3 for parameters αi, βj, where E[Sij] denotes the unconditional mean of Sij, and fj = ∑j+1k=1 βk / ∑jk=1 βk (2.5) The chain ladder estimate of fj is Fj = ∑n-ji=1 Si,j+1 / Sij (2.6) ˆ ˆ The Fj may be converted to estimates α i , β j of the αi, βj by means of the following relations: ˆ β j = β1 [F1… Fj-2 (Fj-1 – 1)] (2.7) subject to some linear constraint on the βj, such as ∑nk=1 βk = 1 (2.8) and ˆ αi = Si,n-i+1/∑R(i) β j ˆ (2.9) Exponential dispersion and Tweedie families of distributions Exponential dispersion family The following family of log likelihoods (or quasi-likelihoods) is called the exponential dispersion family (EDF) (Nelder & Wedderburn, 1972): ℓ(y;θ,λ) = c(λ)[yθ – b(θ)] + a(y,λ) (2.10) for some functions a(.,.), b(.) and c(.) and parameters θ and λ. It may be shown that, for Y subject to this log likelihood, µ = E[Y] = b'(θ), Var[Y] = b''(θ)/c(λ) (2.11) Tweedie family A sub-family of the EDF is that defined by the relations: c(λ) = λ (2.12) Var[Y] = µp/λ for some p≤0 or p≥1 (2.13) This is the Tweedie family of exponential dispersion likelihoods (Tweedie, 1984). The restriction on the moment relations (2.11) implies that b'(θ) = [(1-p)(θ+k)]1/(1-p) (2.14) b(θ) = (2-p)-1[(1-p)(θ+k)](2-p) / (1-p) (2.15) Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 4 for some constant k. This parameterization is found, for example, in Jorgensen & Paes de Souza (1994) and Wüthrich (2003) with k=0. It follows from (2.11), (2.14) and (2.15) that θ = µ1-p/(1-p) –k (2.16) b(θ) = µ2-p/(2-p) (2.17) 3. Maximum likelihood estimation for Tweedie chain ladder Consider the model (2.4), together with the assumption that all Yij are stochastically independent. Note that this is not the same as the chain ladder model, as defined in Section 2, because the latter does not make the same independence assumption. Indeed, Assumption CL1 specifically postulates dependencies between observations from within the same row. Let Y denote the entire set {Yij} of observations, and let ℓ(Y) denote the log likelihood of Y. Suppose that each Yij has a Tweedie distribution defined by (2.12) and the following generalization of (2.13): Var[Yij] = µijp/λwij (3.1) i.e. λ is replaced by λ/wij in (2.12). In common parlance wij is the weight associated with Yij. This model will be called the Tweedie chain ladder model. With the replacement just λ ← λ/wij given, and substitution of (2.16) and (2.17) into (2.10), ℓ(Y) = ∑ { λwij [yij [µij1-p/(1-p) –k] – µij2-p/(2-p)] + a(yij,λ)} (3.2) where the summation runs over all observations in the data set Y. The ML equations with respect to the αi are: ∂L/∂αi = ∑R(i) λwij [yij µij-p – µij1-p] βj = 0, i=1,…,n (3.3) where use has been made of (2.4). This may be equivalently represented as follows: Lemma 3.1. The ML equations with respect to the αi for the Tweedie chain ladder model are: ∑R(i) wij µij1-p [yij – µij] = 0, i=1,…,n (3.4) Similarly, the ML equations with respect to the βj are: Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 5 ∑C(j) wij µij1-p [yij – µij] = 0, j=1,…,n (3.5) Corollary 3.2. The case of ODP Yij is represented by p=1, wij=1. The ML equations are then ∑R(i) [yij – µij] = 0, i=1,…,n (3.6) ∑C(j) [yij – µij] = 0, j=1,…,n (3.7) These imply the chain ladder estimation of the αi, βj set out in (2.6)-(2.9). Proof. See Hachemeister & Stanard (1975), Mack (1991a) or Renshaw & Verrall (1998). Corollary 3.3. The case of gamma Yij is represented by p=2. The ML equations are then ∑R(i) wij [yij / µij – 1] = 0, i=1,…,n (3.8) ∑C(j) wij [yij / µij – 1] = 0, j=1,…,n (3.9) Substitution of αiβj for µij, followed by minor rearrangement, gives αi = wi .-1 ∑R(i) wij yij / βj, i=1,…,n (3.10) βj = w.j-1 ∑C(j) wij yij / αi, j=1,…,n (3.11) where wi . = ∑R(i) wij (3.12) w.j = ∑C(j) wij (3.13) These are essentially the results obtained by Mack (1991a) for gamma distributed cells. Remark 3.4. Mack's assumption of a gamma distribution is, in fact, an approximation to a compound Poisson distribution in each cell of the triangle in which each cell has a gamma severity distribution with the same shape parameter. Mack notes that the shape parameter would need to take a smallish value in order to attribute a n0n-negligible probability to Yij in the vicinity of zero. It may be noted that, as shown by Jorgensen and Paes de Souza (1994), the compound Poisson itself may be accommodated within the Tweedie family (with 1≤p<2) and so this element of approximation eliminated. Remark 3.5. The ML equations (3.6) and (3.7) also show that the chain ladder estimates are marginal sum estimates in the ODP case (see Mack, 1991a; Schmidt & Wünsche, 1998). In the general Tweedie case (equations Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 6 (3.4) and (3.5)), while not equivalent to the chain ladder, they are weighted marginal sum estimates. This provides an indication of the reason why past investigations have shown chain ladder estimates to be close to ML estimates in various Tweedie cases. For example, this was a finding of Wüthrich (2003). To elaborate on this, write the general weighted marginal sum equation corresponding to (3.4) in the form ∑R(i) ωij [yij – µ ij] = 0 ˆ (3.14) where the ωij are general weights and the term µ ij recognizes that the solution ˆ of the equations provides only an estimate of µij. A parallel to the following argument about (3.4) may be given in relation to (3.5). Now re-write the left side of (3.14) as ∑R(i) ωij [εij + ηij] (3.15) where εij = yij – µij and ηij = µij - µ ij, both of which are random variables with ˆ zero means (assuming a correctly specified model). Now consider the substitution of the solutions µ ij of (3.14) in the unweighted ˆ form of the same system of equations: ωi ∑R(i) [yij – µ ij] = ωi ∑R(i) [εij + ηij] ˆ = ∑R(i) ωij [εij + ηij] + ∑R(i) (ωi - ωij) [εij + ηij] = ∑R(i) (ωi - ωij) [εij + ηij] [by (3.14)] (3.16) where ωi = ∑R(i) ωij / (n-i+1). The right side of (3.16) has a mean of zero and a variance of ∑R(i) (ωi - ωij) σij2 where σij2 = Var[εij + ηij] = Var[yij – µ ij]. Hence the value of (3.16) will be ˆ small if either or both of the following conditions hold: • Weights vary little across a row; • The variances of observations around values fitted by (3.14) are small. In this case, the solutions to (3.4) will also be approximate solutions to the unweighted form: ∑R(i) [yij – µ ij] = 0 ˆ which is the chain ladder solution. In summary, under the right conditions the chain ladder will approximate the solution to the weighted marginal sum estimates given by (3.4) and (3.5). Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 7 An example of this approximation is provided by Wüthrich (2003), who made a numerical study of ML fitting of the Tweedie chain ladder model in which the parameters αi, βj, λ and p were all treated as free and the weights wij as known. In the example, the wij varied comparatively little with i and j, and p was estimated to be 1.17. Hence the weights ωij = wij µijp-1 show not too much variation over the triangle and the ML estimates of the Tweedie chain ladder are expected to approximate those of the standard chain ladder, as was indeed found by Wüthrich. 4. Maximum likelihood estimation for general Tweedie Parameters of the general Tweedie chain ladder model may be estimated by the use of GLM software. However, an interesting special case arises under the sole constraint that the weights wij also have the multiplicative structure: wij = ui vj (4.1) Note that this includes the unweighted case wij = 1. The ML equations for estimation of the αi, βj were derived as (3.4) and (3.5). Rewrite these with the substitutions: Zij = wij µij1-p Yij (4.2) νij = wij µij2-p = uivj (αiβj)2-p = aibj (4.3) where ai = ui αi2-p (4.4) bj = vj βj2-p (4.5) This yields ∑R(i) [zij – νij] = 0, i=1,…,n (4.6) ∑C(j) [zij – νij] = 0, i=1,…,n (4.7) Note that these are the same equations as (3.6) and (3.7) in Corollary 3.2. The lemma therefore implies the following result. Lemma 4.1. Consider the Tweedie chain ladder model with general (admissible) p and subject to (3.1) with constraint (4.1). ML estimates of ai, bj (and hence of αi, βj, by (4.4) and (4.5)) are obtained by application of the chain ladder algorithm (2.6)-(2.9) to the data triangle Z={Zij}. In the application of this result µij = αiβj must be known in order to formulate the "data" Zij, whereas αi, βj are estimands of the theorem. However, a solution can be obtained by an iterative procedure. Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 8 Let a superscript (r) denote the r-th iteration of the estimate to which it is attached, e.g. µ(r)ij. Define Z(r)ij = wij [µ(r)ij]1-p Yij (4.8) ν(r)ij = wij [µ(r)ij]2-p = uivj (α(r)iβ(r)j)2-p = a(r)ib(r)j (4.9) Then define a(r+1)i, b(r+1)j as the estimates obtained in place of ai, bj when the chain ladder algorithm is applied to the data triangle {Z(r)ij} in place of Z. By this iterative means, obtain the sequence of estimates {a(r)i, b(r)j, r=0,1,…}, initiated at r=0 by some simple choice, such as setting a(r)i, b(r)j equal to the estimates of αi, βj given by the conventional chain ladder. If this sequence converges, then the limit is taken as an estimate of the ai, bj. This procedure has been applied to the data set in the Appendix with p=2, and convergence of the estimate loss reserve to an accuracy of 0.05% in the estimated loss reserve obtained in 5 iterations. Convergence becomes slower as p increases. For p=2.4, 24 iterations were required to achieve an accuracy of 0.1%. 5. The "separation method" Taylor (1977) introduced the procedure that subsequently became known as the "separation method". This produces parameter estimates for a model of the form E[Yij] = αi+j-1βj (5.1) which is the parallel of (2.4), but with the α parameter applying to diagonal i+j-1 rather than row i. The heuristic equations given by Taylor for parameter estimation were: ∑D(k) [yij – µij] = 0, k=1,…,n (5.2) ∑C(j) [yij – µij] = 0, j=1,…,n (5.3) It is evident that these equations yield marginal sum estimates. Taylor (1977) gives the explicit algorithm for generating estimates of the αi+j-1, βj. This will be referred to as separation method estimation, and is as follows: αk = ∑D(k) Yij / [1 - ∑nj=n-k βj] (5.4) βj = ∑C(j) Yij / ∑nk=j αk (5.5) these equations being applied alternately for k=n, j=n, k=n-1, etc. Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 9 The model resulting from replacement of (2.4) by (5.1) in the Tweedie chain ladder model will be referred to as the Tweedie separation model. It is the same as the Tweedie chain ladder model except for the interchange of rows and diagonals, and so a result parallel to each of those of Sections 3 and 4 is obtainable. Lemma 5.1. The ML equations with respect to the αk, βj for the Tweedie separation model are: ∑D(k) wij µij1-p [yij – µij] = 0, i=1,…,n (5.6) ∑C(j) wij µij1-p [yij – µij] = 0, j=1,…,n (5.7) Corollary 5.2. The case of ODP Yij is represented by p=1, wij=1. The ML equations are then ∑ D(k) [yij – µij] = 0, i=1,…,n (5.8) ∑C(j) [yij – µij] = 0, j=1,…,n (5.9) These imply the separation method estimation of the αk, βj set out in (5.4) and (5.5). Remark 5.3. This result was known for the simple Poisson case since Verbeek (1972), actually earlier than the corresponding result for the chain ladder (Corollary 3.2). Corollary 5.4. The case of gamma Yij is represented by p=2. The ML equations are then ∑D(k) wij [yij / µij – 1] = 0, i=1,…,n (5.10) ∑C(j) wij [yij / µij – 1] = 0, j=1,…,n (5.11) Remark 5.5. In the case of the general Tweedie separation model, the separation method algorithm (5.4) and (5.5) will approximate the ML solution (5.6) and (5.7) if either or both of the following conditions hold: • Weights vary little over the triangle; • The variances of observations around values fitted by (5.6) and (5.7) are small. Lemma 5.6. Consider the Tweedie separation model with general (admissible) p and subject to (3.1) with constraint wi+j-1,j = ui+j-1 vj (5.12) Define by (4.2), and also define νi+j-1,j = wi+j-1,j µi+j-1,j2-p = ui+j-1vj (αi+j-1βj)2-p = ai+j-1bj (5.13) Chain ladder and Tweedie distributed claims data 10 where ak = uk αk2-p (5.14) bj = vj βj2-p (5.15) ML estimates of ak, bj (and hence of αk, βj) are obtained by application of the separation method algorithm (5.4) and (5.5) to the data triangle Z={Zij}. 6.

My dear friends:
Half of my world is mandarin chinese language, so is really important for me to be able to input this laguage properly.
My problem is: I've just installed Kubuntu 11.04 in my netbook. Migrating from Ubuntu 11.04. My experience have been pretty good, but have a small detail. I installed chinese language support and Ibus input method for it. I can type (大家好!) but I can't see the small window with the suggestion of characters.
When I was in Ubuntu 10.10, Ibus had a small window in a corner to configure it, plus the window that appear when you are writing in pinyin. In Ubuntu 11.04, the configuration window didn't appear, but did appear the other one when you input chinese. Now, in Kubuntu, I don't have any. Even doesn't appear the icon in the task bar .
Please, I really need to fix it. With Ibus or any other input method. I'd really appreciate your help.
P.S.: Sorry for my english, my mother language is spanish, second is chinese and third is english... I don't practice it too often.

Well... Answering myself. I fixed it installing Ibus-GTK. Now works perfect, but the notifications appear on GTK format... breaking a little with Kubuntu taste... any way to fix this part now?

See if you can find any "ibus-qt" or "ibus-kde" package, and install that - then remove the "ibus-gtk" package.

Ok, ibus-qt4 should be sufficient. You will need to uninstall ibus-gtk and the logout and back in again for it to take full effect. If you have any IBus environment variables set, then you may need to adjust them.

Not all Hollywood blockbusters are about rampaging dinosaurs, time-traveling cyborgs or spandex-clad heroes.
Some big-budget movies get by just fine focusing on real-life moments of danger and drama. "Apollo 13" is one of those films.
Released 20 years ago today on June 30, 1995, here are 20 things you need to know about how director Ron Howard and star Tom Hanks worked to deliver one of the best space movies in the history of always.
1. It may be one of the most iconic lines in movie history, but "Houston, we have a problem" isn't exactly what was said during the mission. Jim Lovell actually said, "Houston, we've had a problem." The edit was made for the film because "we've had" implies that the problem is over.
2. On that note, Jim Lovell wasn't the only astronaut to speak that famous line. Jack Swigert first radioed in with "Okay, Houston -- we've had a problem here. »

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, musical artists like Kenny Loggins, Michael McDonald, Steely Dan, Toto, Hall and Oates, and dozens of others regularly popped up on each other's records, creating a golden era of smooth-music collaboration.
And 10 years ago (June 26th, 2005), an internet phenomenon was born. In 12 short but memorable episodes — first via the the short-film series Channel 101 and then online — Jd Ryznar, Hunter Stair, Dave Lyons, Lane Farnham and their friends redefined an era and coined a term for the sultry croonings of McDonald, Fagen, et al. »

After a long casting process, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios have announced that Tom Holland (The Impossible) as been hired to play Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the next "Spider-Man" film, which is set to hit theaters on July 28th, 2017. It was also revealed that the reboot will be directed by Jon Watts, the man behind Kevin Bacon's upcoming "Cop Car" film. "Sony, Marvel, Kevin [Feige] and I all knew that for Peter Parker, we had to find a vibrant, talented young actor capable of embodying one of the most well-known characters in the world," said producer and former Sony Pictures head Amy Pascal. "With Tom, we've found the perfect actor to bring Spider-Man's story into the Marvel Cinematic Universe." It's being reported that Robert Downey Jr and Chris Evans were brought in to read scenes with Holland. This was obviously done to see if the young actor had any chemistry with "The Avengers" stars. »

Nineteen-year-old British actor Tom Holland, or candidate No. 2, has been selected to play the next Spider-Man, following "a series of complex screen tests," Marvel announced Tuesday. The film will be directed by Jon Watts, who made Cop Car, starring Kevin Bacon, and will be released July 28, 2017.Holland might be best known so far for his work as Thomas Cromwell's son in Wolf Hall, but he'll also be appearing this winter in Ron Howard's In the Heart of the Sea as a cabin boy who survives a whale-induced shipwreck alongside Chris Hemsworth, who can give him tips on how to lead a Marvel franchise.

After an extensive search for both an actor and director, Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios have finally found their new Peter Parker, with The Impossible and Wolf Hall's Tom Holland stepping up to the plate to take on the role of a much younger Spider-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, his first big screen appearance coming next year in Captain America: Civil War. Holland's name has been on the radar for some time now, being on a shortlist that also included Asa Butterfield (Ender's Game, Hugo) and Natt Wolf (The Fault in Our Stars, the upcoming Paper Towns). Holland is said to have impressed both studios and producers Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal with his screen work and a series of complex screen tests. While Holland will be swinging his way onto the big screen next year, a solo Spider-Man movie won't come our way till »

Rumors suggested a "Spider-Man" announcement was coming this week and yep, it's here. Marvel announced today that Tom Holland ("The Impossible") has landed the coveted gig of "Spider-Man." In a surprise move, the director was unveiled too. He wasn't one of the bigger names on the various short lists, he's relative new comer Jon Watts who directed Kevin Bacon in the intense thriller, "Cop Car" which debuted at Sundance earlier this year (here's our review). Expect Holland to appear first in "Captain America: Civil War" in what is probably a smaller cameo role, but the first "Spider-Man" movie won't arrive until summer 2017. Here's Marvel's press release Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios are proud to announce that after a full worldwide casting search, Tom Holland will play Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the next Spider-Man film, in theaters in IMAX and 3D on July 28, 2017.

Kevin Bacon probably didn't receive a "World's Best Dad" mug on his first Father's Day.

Cop Car follows two 10-year-old boys who stumble upon a police cruiser and take it for a joy ride, only to get entangled in the drama of a scummy small-town sheriff, played by Kevin Bacon. Vulture caught up with Bacon at BAMcinemaFest Sunday night to ask him if he's ever left anything in the car, and, well, he has. "When my son was born — it's Father's Day, so I'm thinking about him, especially since he's here — [Kyra Sedgwick and I] took him back from the hospital. We locked a newborn in the car with the keys in the car and the motor running," Bacon said. "A guy from the garage put his fist through the window and broke in because my wife and I were obviously panicked. My publicist is laughing at me. We were new parents. You know, it was hard."

Last night, LeBron James came as close as any player has in 46 years (since Jerry West in '69) to winning the NBA Finals Mvp for a losing team. What he did in carrying a team of scrubs and/or Knicks castoffs to within two games of a championship was otherworldly, not just for his own play, but for the complete ineptitude of his supporting cast whenever he wasn't on the floor. It had me wondering if there was a TV equivalent. I'm not talking about a great performance in an otherwise bad show, because we've seen plenty of those (Matthew Perry in "Studio 60," for instance), but a Hall of Fame performance that transforms a show that would otherwise be unwatchable into something seemingly great in its own right.

There's a reason why Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick have been married for 27 years and are still going strong. Well, there are probably a number of reasons, but it's still lovely to hear that this devoted duo are still totally hot for each other after nearly three decades together. "I don't think there was a moment where it was like, that thing happened and then we got pissed at each other. It was sort of the opposite," Bacon recalled during a Q&A in NYC with GQ editor-at-large Michael Hainey, when asked about how his marriage fared when they ended up among the victims of Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme.

The road thriller premiered at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and co-stars James Freedson-Jackson, Hays Wellford, Camryn Manheim and Shea Whigham. The official synopsis reads: "When two rebellious young boys stumble across an abandoned cop car hidden in a secluded glade, they decide to take it for a joyride. When the small town sheriff (Kevin Bacon) goes looking for his missing car, the boys find themselves in the center of a deadly game of cat and mouse, and the only way out is to go as fast as their cop car can take them."

Toronto (14-10-2) at NY Rangers (15-5-3)

The New York Rangers were posting mediocre results when they lost their home opener to the Toronto Maple Leafs nearly six weeks ago.
They're now among the hottest teams in the NHL, and that's especially true at Madison Square Garden.
The Rangers look to extend their longest home winning streak in 21 years Monday night when they face the Maple Leafs.
New York (15-5-3) went 3-2-2 during a season-opening seven-game, three-country road trip before falling 4-2 to Toronto (14-10-2) on Oct. 27, getting outshot 26-14 in the final two periods. The Rangers followed that up with a 5-4 shootout loss to Ottawa in Manhattan two days later.
Since then, they're 12-2-0 to move among the best teams in the league, and success at home is playing a major role. New York has outscored opponents 26-10 to win seven in a row at MSG, the team's longest run there within a single season since winning the first eight home games of 1990-91.
"I think the guys are buying into it - the style of play we want to play, play a hard simple game which allows us to make simple plays and create chances to score some goals," center Derek Stepan(notes) told the team's official website.
Stepan kept the Rangers rolling Saturday, giving them the lead for the first time on the eventual game-winner with 3:19 to play in a 4-2 victory at Tampa Bay. New York scored three times in the third period to extend its overall winning streak to five.
"I'm really happy how the guys handled themselves in between the second and third period," coach John Tortorella said. "I don't think there was any panic within them, and they just stayed with it.
"We have it rolling our way here. I thought we earned it. I don't think we went in the back door."
Brad Richards(notes), who scored an empty-net goal Saturday, has four goals and five assists during a five-game scoring streak. The star center leads the Rangers with 22 points, and his 10 goals tie Ryan Callahan(notes) for second behind Marian Gaborik's(notes) 12.
In his first season with New York, Richards has made himself at home at the Garden, netting six goals and setting up five others in nine games. The last matchup with Toronto, however, was one of three contests there in which he was held without a point.
Henrik Lundqvist(notes) made 32 saves in that meeting with the Leafs, and he figures to be in net after stopping 24 shots Saturday. He's won nine of his last 10 starts behind a 1.89 goals-against average and a shutout, including a 1.58 GAA during a personal five-game home winning streak.
Toronto is trying to avoid matching its longest slide of the season after being swept in a home-and-home set with Boston. The Maple Leafs fell 4-1 on the road Saturday after losing 6-3 on Wednesday.
Phil Kessel(notes) is tied with Philadelphia's Claude Giroux(notes) with a league-leading 32 points, while his 16 goals match Steven Stamkos(notes) of Tampa Bay and Ottawa's Milan Michalek(notes) for the NHL lead.
Kessel, though, has no goals and three assists in his last five games - not to mention a minus-7 rating in that stretch.
Joffrey Lupul(notes), who scored a goal in New York in October, is also among the NHL's top scorers with 12 goals and 30 points. The left wing had a seven-game point streak snapped Saturday.
James Reimer(notes) could face the Rangers for the first time after making 26 saves Saturday in his first game since an Oct. 22 injury that led to concussion-like symptoms.
"He was very solid, looked like he hadn't missed a beat," coach Ron Wilson said.

Do you know what the most stressful thing about July in New York City is? No, it's not figuring out how to get ahead of Friday-afternoon traffic as you go East for the weekend. Nor is it working to beat the heat when the average temperature is a brisk 86 degrees (that's what window units are for, right!?). Actually, the read
Call it the ultimate catch-22, but between pinching heels, too-tight-to-sit-down-in bandage dresses, and constricting shapewear, the average "going-out outfit" can actually put a major damper on the night. Plus, chances are high that if you throw on your go-to LBD and strappy sandals, a handful of other partygoers will be read

by Hamill, Sam
If you have looked long at the serene freedom of a Chinese painting or been baffled by a Zen koan or been knocked off your stool by a Beat poet, you have met Chuang Tzu (Zhuangzi). If you would like to get to know him better, spend some time with poet Sam Hamill and scholar J.P. Seaton's translation of The Essential Teachings of Chuang Tzu.
Of the 33 chapters in the original, Hamill and Seaton render 19 completely and 3 partially into a naturally flowing English idiom that captures the vibrancy, humor, and playful sincerity of Chuang Tzu's language. Chuang Tzu offers insights more than teachings, startlingly transparent nuggets of wisdom in short episodes with colorful characters and trenchant punch lines. His overarching themes of freedom, living naturally, using the useless, the interconnectedness of all things, natural transformation, and such materialize as the eye meanders from passage to passage. Here is a concise, fluent rendition that makes reading Chuang Tzu almost as much fun as wandering free and easy through the infinite. --Brian Bruya

Devo Reissue Classic Early Albums, Play Them Live on Fall Tour
By Tom Breihan on September 16, 2009 at 3:45 p.m. EDT
Ohio nerd-rock legends Devo are taking the whole playing-a-classic-album-in-its-entirety trend to the next level. On their November tour, they will play two-night stands in every city, dedicating each night to one particular album.
The first night, Devo will play their 1978 debut Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! straight through. The next night, they'll run through 1980's Freedom of Choice. So you'll be able to choose between experimental weirdo Devo and early-MTV new wave Devo, or you could just buy tickets to both shows.
Speaking of those two albums, Devo plans to reissue both on the label that originally released them, Warner Bros. Are We Not Men? and Freedom of Choice will be reissued on November 3 on deluxe CD and limited edition colored vinyl. There will also be a "Jocko Homo"/"Mongoloid" vinyl-only 7". It's all part of Devo's new 360 deal with Warner that covers "recorded music, touring, merchandising, web services, promotion, e-commerce, sponsorships, licensing, and endorsements," according to a press release. Devo are currently working on a new album as well.

Distance and latitude/longitude coordinates are displayed when you mouse over the map. The origin for distance measuring is indicated by a red dot and defaults to either your location, if specified and in range, or the location of the radar/the centre of the map. The origin may be changed by clicking elsewhere on the map.

Radar Details
Western Australia
LocationPort Hedland Airport Radar TypeWF 44 S Band Typical Availability24 hours
The Port Hedland Radar has an unrestricted 360 degree view with no permanent echoes. During the dry season (April through to December) occasional false echoes occur, generally characterised by small clusters or spots of very low intensity which appear to move at random, mostly over land. During the wet season, thunderstorm clouds and cyclonic formations are generally well defined for distances up to approx 250 kilometres. Beyond that distance signal attenuation gives the appearance of less intensity than possibly exists. These formations are easily identified against false echoes by their regular patterns in movement and direction. It is common in the wet season (primarily January to March) for thunderstorm cells to be seen on almost a daily basis in the area south of Port Hedland. Isolated growing storms can merge to form a line running in a NE/SW direction, located anywhere from 60 kilometres to 200 kilometres south of Port Hedland. Favourable locations for thunderstorm activity as seen on the radar in these events are generally over the ranges south of Port Hedland. During the wet months some anomalous propagation can occur out at sea, however it is generally distinguishable from "real" echoes by random movement and low intensity spots or clusters. Heavy rain directly over the radar site can cause attenuation of all signals. Path attenuation can also occur when the radar beam passes through intense rainfall, with the returned signals from cells further along that path reduced.

This is a cross-post between this group and my Phoenix Active Single Adventurers group.
We have come up with questions that can be answered in a scavenger hunt format at light rail stations and buildings along the light rail line from the Osborn and Central station to the Jefferson and 3rd Street station.
We will start at the Starbucks in Park Central on Central Avenue between Osborn and Thomas Roads. As members come we will put you in groups and send you on your way with a list of questions. When your group has answered all the questions you can join your trio of organizers (Lisa, Leana, and Abbey) at the Tilted Kilt in Cityscape downtown for drinks or food.
There are no prizes - this is just meant to be a fun event where people can get out and meet and interact with other singles.
You can save time by buying your all day light rail pass at a retail location in your area (http://www.valleymetro.org/sales_locations/retail_outlet_map for a list).
We are all set for the scavenger hunt. The Tilted Kilt is expecting us and is giving us the party room for our event. Please don't arrive after 1:30pm because the organizers will no longer be putting together groups after 1:30. Also remember to bring a pen or pencil. All day passes are now $4 and security did check for tickets when we were putting together our second list of questions Sunday.

I have an asp.net 4.0 c# application where a user is now going to be able to create a table and store data in that table. One thing that has been decided for version 1 is once the table is created it can't be edited this is purely for making it less complicated. It would be nice to have a solution to where the schema could be edited also.
My first thought is to have a table in the db and each row would represent each "table", one column would store the schema in xml and then a second column would store the data. When trying to pull the data I would read the xml into a datatable work with the data and then save it back out to xml in the db. Any thoughts suggestions or links to others trying this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
