Family Dollar Q2 Net Income Decline Prompts Business Review
Friday April 11th, 2014 - 9:52AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
In what the company characterized as a disappointing 13-week fiscal 2014 second quarter, Family Dollar Stores, Inc. posted net income of $90.9 million, or 80 cents per diluted share, versus $140.1 million, or $1.21 per diluted share, in the 14-week year-earlier period.
Comparable store sales for the second quarter slipped 3.8% as a result of a decline in customer transactions, partially offset by an increase in the average customer transaction value, Family Dollar maintained. Second quarter sales were strongest in the Consumables category, driven primarily by strong growth in refrigerated and frozen food and tobacco, the company added.
Net sales were $2.72 billion versus $2.89 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the company reported. Operating profit was $140.3 million versus $217 million in the fiscal 2013 period.
Family Dollar estimated that the extra week in fiscal 2013 contributed $189 million in sales and seven cents of earnings per diluted share to results. Further, the company estimated that the negative financial impact of adverse weather in the fiscal 2014 second quarter was five cents of earnings per diluted share.
"Our second quarter results did not meet our expectations," Howard Levine, Family Dollar chairman and CEO, said in relaying the financial results. "The 2013 holiday season was challenged by a more promotional competitive environment and a more financially constrained consumer. In addition, like many retailers, our second quarter results were significantly impacted by severe winter weather, which resulted in numerous store closings, disrupted merchandise deliveries and higher than expected utility and store maintenance expenses. Notwithstanding the macro-economic pressure, competitive environment and severe weather, we are not satisfied with our results, and we hold ourselves accountable for improving our performance. To that end, we have initiated an in-depth business review to identify opportunities to strengthen our value proposition, increase operational efficiencies and improve financial performance."
As the business review commences, Levine said, "we are taking immediate, strategic actions to improve our performance. First, we have made a significant investment to lower prices on about 1,000 basic items. Second, we are reducing our cost structure through the optimization of our workforce. Third, we will close approximately 370 underperforming stores. Once complete, our workforce reduction efforts and store closures are expected to result in $40 million to $45 million of annualized operating profit benefit, beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Lastly, we intend to slow new store growth beginning in fiscal 2015 to improve our return on investment. We are confident that these steps will position Family Dollar to deliver stronger returns for our shareholders."
Family Dollar operates about 8,100 stores in 46 of the United States. Through the first two quarters of fiscal 2014, it opened 244 new stores, closed 22 stores and renovated, relocated or expanded 319 stores, it maintained.

Bull City Malbourne Maibock
RATINGS: 3 MEAN: 3.5/5.0 WEIGHTED AVG: 3 SEASONAL: Spring ABV: -
The Malbourne Maibock is a lager in the traditional spring or "May" bock style. The spring bock is light in color like a Helles lager, but a little higher in alcohol and emphasizes the pale malt flavors. The golden hue is clear with a distinctive Hallertauer hop nose of spice and light floral aromas. The malty body and moderate bitterness make for a thirst quenching, warm weather lager, full of character but not heavy in the mouth. Cereal grains, pale toast and a touch of malt sugar leaves one thirsting for more as outdoor temperatures rise. The Malbourne hotel was built in 1912 on the corner of Main and Roxboro streets. It was a stunning, modern hotel with 125 rooms, hot and cold water and 50 private bathrooms.

Sources of Commonality in Liquidity and Factors Affecting the Pricing of Commonality Dissertation Proposal Presented to the Faculty of Department of Economics and Finance University of New Orleans In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Ph.D. in Financial Economics Mehmet F. Dicle Ph.D. Candidate Department of Economics and Finance University of New Orleans 2000 Lakeshore Drive, KH 438 New Orleans, LA 70148 Tel. (504) 858-9342 Fax: (504) 280-6397 E-Mail: email@example.com University of New Orleans August, 2007 1 Sources of Commonality in Liquidity and Factors Affecting the Pricing of Commonality Liquidity is not directly measurable. Therefore, the evaluation of individual security liquidity is limited to several proxies of liquidity rather than a specific measure. Earlier studies emphasize on determinants of liquidity, especially on the inventory costs and asymmetric information aspects. With the availability of intraday transaction data, recent studies take advantage of more precise proxies of liquidity such as bid-ask spreads and depth. The direction of emphasis is changed towards the relationship between return and liquidity. Along with individual liquidity, aggregate market liquidity is also evaluated extensively with the focus on asset pricing aspects. In both strands of literature, liquidity is considered to be a priced risk. Lo, Mamaysky and Wang (2001) provide a survey of earlier liquidity studies. More recently, the focus is shifted towards common factors determining liquidity for individual as well as market-wide liquidity. Commonality in liquidity is evaluated as a new determinant of individual liquidity. Chordia, Roll, and Subrahmanyam (2000) and Huberman and Halka (2001) provide evidence for the relationship between individual and market liquidity in the U.S. markets. Lee (2005) and Brockman, Chung and Perignon (2006) provide evidence of commonality in liquidity for the international markets. It is argued that if there is a common determinant of individual liquidity, then individual stocks will have commonality in their liquidity proxies. Inventory costs and asymmetric information are considered to be the most plausible determinants that may show com- monality. Volatility of shares has a commonality and any change in volatility will have an impact on the inventory risks of market makers. Order imbalances will distract inven- 2 tory balances and will eventually increase transaction costs. If, on the other hand, the number of informed traders increase or their information is more common than stock spe- cific, market makers will become more susceptible to order imbalances for several stocks at a time. In turn, they will increase transaction costs to decrease their inventory turnover ratio. Pastor and Stambaugh (2003) argue that market liquidity is non-diversifiable and a factor for asset pricing. Acharya and Pedersen (2005) argue that the covariance between market liquidity and individual liquidity is a factor in asset pricing. There is sufficient evidence for commonality in liquidity for U.S. markets using li- quidity proxies based on transaction data. While only a few studies evaluate international markets, the evidence is robust both based on transaction data and daily data. The meth- odology introduced by Acharya and Pedersen (2005) integrates individual liquidity and market liquidity into asset pricing which is relatively new and unexplored. There are only a few applications of Acharya and Pedersen (2005) for international markets (i.e. Lee, 2005). However, liquidity is an important aspect for developing markets. Considering the fact that several previous financial crises were blamed on diminished market-wide liquid- ity, better understanding of liquidity will also shed light on the differences specific to emerging markets. Our aim with this study is to identify some of the sources of common- ality in liquidity and factors affecting the pricing of liquidity by comparing emerging markets to developed markets. We suspect that commonality has its sources in inventory as well as asymmetric in- formation explanations. The market structure in terms of existence of market makers with the obligation to provide liquidity will play an important role in commonality. Traders in auction markets have motivations to trade and no obligation. While such difference in 3 market structure is considered a possible source in commonality, the traders' behavior under different market conditions is more plausible. If a market experiences rather large negative returns on a frequent basis, it is only natural to expect traders to be more cau- tious during down markets. If the market trading stops frequently due to circuit-brakers, traders have no alternative to rebalance their inventories. Even if these negative returns are not significant but rather in longer durations, it will alter the trading patterns of the investors. Thus, the magnitude and duration of market downside risk will affect liquidity and its commonality. Chordia, Roll, and Subrahmanyam (2001) argue that rate of change in transaction costs are different for down and up markets. Chordia, Roll, and Subrah- manyam (2002) show that order imbalances during down and up markets increase the inventory risks and lead to increased transaction costs. Considering the transaction costs as a reaction to market-wide movements, higher volatility will lead to higher transaction costs. However, if there is over-reaction in down markets and under-reaction in up mar- kets, then the commonality and pricing of commonality should be higher in down mar- kets compared to the up markets. As the first source of commonality, we will evaluate commonality and pricing of commonality for down and up markets. Since emerging mar- kets are generally auction markets, the inexistence of dealers (or market makers) will in- fluence the trading patterns. After all, the traders in auction markets have no obligation to provide liquidity. Galariotis and Giouvris (2007) evaluate this issue for FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 stocks in U.K. by extending Chordia, Roll, and Subrahmanyam (2000). They find that the effect of difference in trading regime on commonality is small. With this in mind, we will base our explanations on inventory explanations. Our only difference will be the motivation for investors to trade which is purely to make profits rather than mak- 4 ing profits and the obligation. We suspect that the traders in emerging markets are more cautious in down markets against further declines, circuit breakers (which make inven- tory balancing impossible) and major market crashes. Therefore, as the second source of commonality, we will evaluate the effect of frequency of large negative returns (size of downside risk) on commonality and pricing of commonality. Another source we consider is the correlation of equity markets with macroeconomic factors. We suspect that the short- and long-term interest rates will influence cost of car- rying inventory and in turn affect commonality. Chordia, Roll, Subrahmanyam (2001) show the effect of interest rates and announcements of macroeconomic events on market liquidity and trading activity. These announcements, if known beforehand, will be re- ceived as information about the overall market contributing to market-wide trading thus affecting the commonality. Therefore, as the third source of commonality, we will evalu- ate the effect of macroeconomic factors on commonality and pricing of commonality. Lee (2005) shows that liquidity risk is also an international issue. While it is ex- pected that developed markets should have influence over the liquidity of emerging mar- ket, we suspect that there should be commonality in liquidity between markets as well. Lee (2005) provides evidence for the effect of U.S. equity markets on liquidity risk of international markets. This evidence implies that the common factors in determinants of individual (and market) liquidity within a single market may have commonality between markets. The evidence provided by Brockman, Chung and Perignon (2006) using 38 countries is in support of this view. Therefore, as the fourth source of commonality, we will examine the existence of any commonality between markets. 5 Seasonality in returns may disappear after being documented. This is largely because these patterns provide opportunities for investors to profit. Draper and Paudyal (1997) provide evidence for the existence of seasonality in London Stock Exchange. In their evaluation of liquidity determinants, Chordia, Roll, Subrahmanyam (2001) provide evi- dence that some known seasonality effects such as day-of-the-week and holidays effect liquidity and trading activity. Seasonality in liquidity is much more persistent. This is be- cause, if there is any pattern of low liquidity, traders tend to avoid trading during these times causing these patterns to persist. We suspect that seasonality in liquidity is another source for commonality. Therefore, as the fifth source of commonality, we will examine the seasonality in commonality and pricing of commonality. Our contribution is towards the understanding of sources of commonality and factors affecting the pricing of commonality. By extending the current literature to evaluate the emerging markets in terms of differences to developed markets with reference to com- monality and pricing of commonality in liquidity, we contribute to the understanding of channels in which the commonality is formed and priced. Understanding the sources of commonality will contribute to the literature for asset pricing, market microstructure and liquidity. While our evaluation is focused on the emerging markets, the issue is relevant to developed markets as well. Since liquidity is generally blamed for financial crises in emerging markets, by examining the liquidity in down and up markets separately, we are also contributing to the literature about the financial crisis proneness in emerging mar- kets. Due to the covariance of liquidity and returns, seasonal patterns in commonality contributes towards explanations for well-known market anomalies. 6

1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the Holiday spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they're serving rum balls.
2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And quickly. It's rare.. You cannot find it any other time of year but now. So drink up! Who cares that it has 10,000 calories in every sip? It's not as if you're going to turn into an eggnog-alcoholic or something. It's a treat. Enjoy it. Have one for me. Have two. It's later than you think. It's Christmas!
3. If something comes with gravy, use it. That's the whole point of gravy. Gravy does not stand alone. Pour it on. Make a volcano out of your mashed potatoes. Fill it with gravy. Eat the volcano. Repeat.
4. As for mashed potatoes, always ask if they're made with skim milk or whole milk. If it's skim, pass. Why bother? It's like buying a sports car with an automatic transmission.
5. Do not have a snack before going to a party in an effort to control your eating. The whole point of going to a Holiday party is to eat other people's food for free. Lots of it. Hello?
6. Under no circumstances should you exercise between now and New Year's. You can do that in January when you have nothing else to do. This is the time for long naps, which you'll need after circling the buffet table while carrying a 10-pound plate of food and that vat of eggnog.
7. If you come across something really good at a buffet table, like frosted Christmas cookies in the shape and size of Santa, position yourself near them and don't budge. Have as many as you can before becoming the center of attention. They're like a beautiful pair of shoes. If you leave them behind, you're never going to see them again.
8. Same for pies. Apple, Pumpkin, Mincemeat. Have a slice of each. Or if you don't like mincemeat, have two apples and one pumpkin. Always have three. When else do you get to have more than one dessert? Labor Day?
9. Did someone mention fruitcake? Granted, it's loaded with the mandatory celebratory calories, but avoid it at all cost. I mean, have some standards.
10. One final tip: If you don't feel terrible when you leave the party or get up from the table, you haven't been paying attention. Re-read tips; start over, but hurry, January is just around the corner. Remember this motto to live by: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate and wine in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!" Have a great holiday season!!

Vancouver HotelsA gleamingly modern city with a dramatic mountain backdrop – Vancouver is certainly as good as it looks. Canada's irresistible culinary capital, a glossy shopping mecca, and thanks to its sandy beaches, lush forests, and nearby snow-powdered mountains – it's a convenient launch pad for outdoor adventure too. Add to that first rate museums, top notch culture haunts, and hipster hewn neighborhoods brimming with unique offerings, and it's clear to see why Vancouver is such a happening place.Things to seeA dazzlingly white structure crowned with 5 sails, Canada Place is one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. The waterside marvel is home to a hotel, the Vancouver Convention Centre, the Vancouver World Trade Centre, and 'FlyOver Canada' – a mesmerizing 4D flight simulator. Stanley Park is an urban oasis unlike any other. Bordering downtown and surrounded by water, the 1,001-acre spread is richly forested, and features lakes, gardens, beaches, and walking trails that weave through the fragrant idyll. As you explore the park further you'll discover cultural monuments including the First Nations totem poles, kid's play areas, several restaurants, and the Vancouver Aquarium. If you're heading to the University of British Columbia, the Museum of Anthropology is not to be missed. Set within an imposing glass-fronted structure inspired by traditional aboriginal buildings, the facility is held in high esteem for its vast collection of art, cultural, and historical artefacts – with a particular emphasis on the Pacific Northwest Coast First Nations.Hotels in VancouverIf you've got a taste for the finer things, then the 5-star hotels in Vancouver are in a luxury league of their own. Set within sheeny towers, you can expect wow-factor décor, pampering service, rooftop swimming pools, and floor-to-ceiling windows graced waterfront or cityscape views. If your budget doesn't quite reach those lofty heights however, then the city's more modestly-priced accommodation aims to please too. With a choice of boutique hotels, chain name favorites, and aparthotels, guests are treated to plenty of amenities, from on-site restaurants to fitness and business centers. Cheap hotels in Vancouver are in plentiful supply too, along with backpacker hostels for even thriftier pockets.Where to stayFrom colorful Chinatown, to the chic and historic Gastown, Vancouver is home to many vibrant neighborhoods. If you want to be within easy reach of the star attractions however, a hotel in Downtown Vancouver is your best bet. Within the waterside utopia of sleek skyscrapers, shopping, dining, and all hours entertainment abounds. If you're something of an outdoors junkie, then North Vancouver is likely to tickle your fancy instead. Hikers, mountain bikers, and kayakers will all find their fix among the urban-meets-au natural landscape, whilst skiers can tackle the snowy slopes of Grouse Mountain.How to get to VancouverOne of Canada's best-connected airports, Vancouver International Airport sits a convenient 7.5 miles from the city's downtown district. It serves destinations throughout North America, as well as major cities in Europe, Asia, Oceania, and Mexico – meaning you can get in from almost anywhere. When you've arrived a train can speed you directly from the airport to Waterfront Station (downtown's primary terminal) in a breezy 25 minutes. Alternatively you can take a taxi, or rent a car. If you're already within North America, Vancouver can also be reached by both VIA Rail and Amtrak services, as well as the Greyhound bus.

M'S TV DEAL: The Mariners have agreed on a three-year contract with KIRO-TV for the station to continue as the over-the-air rights holder for game telecasts through the 2000 season. The new deal calls for 62 to 65 over-the-air telecasts, with some of the games being carried by KSTW. The team also announced that both Rick Rizzs and Ron Fairly will return to the Mariners broadcast team next season, joining Dave Niehaus in the booth (Mariners).

DEFINITION of 'Accounting Entity'
A clearly defined economics unit that is accounted for separately. An accounting entity can be either a business or subdivision of a business that engages in economic activities, has economic assets and resources that must be accounted, and is separate from the personal dealings of its owners. Once an accounting entity is determined, transactions within the specific unit are accounted. The entity should not be flexible or regularly changed, in order to insure the accuracy of accounting.
Also known as a "reporting entity".
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS'Accounting Entity'
Accounting entities are separated so that they can be focused in on by an accountant. This enables the accountant to record and report transactions that are specific to that entity. Once an entity is established, accountants are able to determine the cash flows and transactions that will impact the entity's financial statements.

Feb 23, 2011 Larry Snyder rated it 5 of 5 stars
I've read through this book 3 times - anytime I read a book twice it's a rare event. Some of the stories are a bit unbelievable and sensationalistic but the history of silicon valley and how these tech guys keep inventing and reinventing themselves is great fun. Well done.
Aug 09, 2013 David Kopec rated it 5 of 5 stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end. For anyone interested in the culture of Silcion Valley it is a must read. Yes, as other reviewers pointed out it jumps around quite a bit. Both in terms of pace and interest. However, taken as a whole it provides exciting stories of busines, personal flare, finance, and technology. A good read for anyone with at least a vague interest in the subject matter.
Jul 06, 2014 Aimee rated it 4 of 5 stars
The best book I've read on the history of Silicon Valley. Though a bit of a period piece (it was published in 1999), its history of the early days of the Valley -- from the founding of HP, Shockley etc -- is great.
Jul 26, 2008 Bill Varon rated it 4 of 5 stars
Best account on the history of the high tech industry, especially the early days of the micro chip through the VC created dot-com craziness and how successful start-ups are made.

Recommends it for: techies
Also pretty decent, good overview of the major players at the start of the tech boom. Covers the start of the computing revolution and the start of the internet boom.

MBTA Driver Pleads Not Guilty To Charges In Newton Overpass Crash
NEWTON (CBS) – The MBTA driver who crashed her bus and left it dangling over the Massachusetts Turnpike pleaded not guilty to obstruction of justice Tuesday.
Shanna Shaw was arraigned in Newton District Court in the May 18 crash that left 9 people hurt.
She was released on a promise to return to court for her next hearing in the case on June 24. Shaw, 43, also face charges of speeding and driving to endanger.
WBZ NewsRadio 1030's Doug Cope reports
Prosecutors asked for Shaw's medical records from St. Elizabeth's Hospital where she was treated after the crash.
Shaw had no comment for reporters.
According to an affidavit released last week, Shaw told investigators she sneezed and that caused her to lost control of the bus.
Some passengers claim she was going too fast.
Shaw initially denied having a cell phone, but during questioning at the hospital police heard a phone ring in her purse.
Surveillance video from inside the bus also showed the driver holding a cell phone.
Shaw later admitted she was moving her phone, not making a call or text, at the time of the crash.
The affidavit also stated that video reveals the driver going back onto the bus after the crash to get her phone off the floor.
The state suspended Shaw's driver's license last week and revoked her bus driver's certificate.

Hey, Mr. Greenjeans
My idea of eco-conscious clothing is wearing the same jeans for weeks on end without washing them. It's totally to save water or whatever--not at all because I'm a lazy slob. "Organic" clothing, you bet--I'm a walking compost heap. But that's not the idea behind the Organic in the City Fashion Show and Auction, though. Rather, designers Ross Bennett, Lindsay Weatherread and El Centro College Fashion Design students will show new, earth-friendly collections 6:30 to 9 p.m. Wednesday at Texas Discovery Gardens, 3601 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. Tickets ($40 through March 5, $50 after) and information are at 214-428-7476.

Writer and actress Sharon Horgan gatecrashes six very different marriages and a wedding in a bid to open up the private world of husbands and wives. Sharon says 'everyone knows what they want from a wedding - drunk by noon, quick go on a bridesmaid, chocolate fountain - but what do we want from a marriage?' She admits marriage is a serious, lifelong commitment but nobody tells you how to do it. She meets six different couples to explore the essence of a lifelong and happy marriage. She wants to find out how they've made it work and what she can learn about marriage from their relationships. First up, she spends time with tantric sex teachers Kavida and Roland who think there's no reason why marriage should get in the way of a 'mind-blowing sex life.'

The Way Out of Shutdown Shenanigans
Today I received an e-mail from the Friends of (the very popular with progressives) Senator Bernie Sanders. In it the Senator says:
I'm joining with the members of Progressives United to send a clear message to President Obama that we will stand with him when he vetoes Republican legislation that attacks the well-being of the struggling middle class.
Join me and members of Progressives United to urge the president to VETO any Republican legislation that attacks working families.

If You Cook It ($35,000 T-day Dinner) the 1%ers Will Come!
According to Erik Sherman in "Restaurant's Decadent Thanksgiving Feast: $35,000 for 4" The Old Homestead Restaurant on Manhattan's lower west side offered for Thanksgiving a $35,000 celebration for four people ($8,750 a person). The offer extended was to accommodate 3 groups of four.
By Tuesday two of the three celebration packages had been snapped up. One of the buyers was reported to be from a financial institution in NYC and another an out-of-towner. Read more about If You Cook It ($35,000 T-day Dinner) the 1%ers Will Come!

Why Democrats Lost: It's Not All About Millennials
Carl Gibson, a writer blogging at Reader Supported News, provides an "Open Letter to the Democrats" giving his view of why they lost the Congressional Elections of 2014. He endorses the President's view that people didn't show up to vote because their choice of politicians didn't motivate them. And to this view he adds that the Democrats did not get his generation's support because they didn't ". . . get populist." And he goes on to say:
2014's low voter turnout was historic. Voter turnout actually hasn't been this low since the 1940s. As Mother Jones pointed out, voter turnout for people under 30 was dismal. In this election, people like me only made up 12 percent of those who voted, while people aged 60 and older made up almost 40 percent of total voters. In 2012, when President Obama was re-elected and Congressional Democrats made gains in the House and Senate, millennials made up almost one-fifth of all voters, and voters 60 and older made up just 25 percent of the electorate, bringing us a little closer to a tie. It isn't hard to see the difference – this year, Republicans steamrolled you, Democrats, because most of us stayed home and let our Fox-watching uncles and grandparents decide on who was going to represent everyone else.
So how do older people pick who runs Congress? Like every other voting bloc, they pick the ones who run on issues most important to them. And as Vox reported, data consistently shows that younger people want their tax dollars spent on education and job creation. Older voters want their money spent on Social Security and war. The Republicans who swept the U.S. Senate ran largely on fear campaigns over ISIS, promising to be more hawkish than their opponents in an eagerness to pour money and troops into Iraq and Syria to snuff out America's newest boogeyman.
Contrast the unified Republican message with the profound silence from you Democrats on addressing the trillion-dollar student debt crisis, rampant inequality and underemployment, and your collective fear of openly embracing economic populism, and you cook up what we saw on Tuesday night. Older people showed up, highly motivated to elect war hawks. Younger people mostly stayed home, disillusioned with the only alternative on the ballot who didn't even talk about the issues affecting our lives every day.

Cantor Repeats the Same Old Nonsense: Shows He Hasn't Learned A Thing From Defeat
Eric Cantor weighed in today at Quora on the balanced budget Amendment. This is what he said:
Once created, government programs build constituencies of special interests determined to keep the money flowing, whether or not the particular program is effective. There have been many times when the House has placed wasteful and duplicative programs on the chopping block, only to see pressure from the spending lobby win the day in the Senate.
Near-term spending cuts are necessary to alter the course, but they will not be enough without long-term changes. Likewise, promises of cuts 10 years from now mean little without a way to enforce them. The only way to truly guarantee delivery from future elected officials is for the Constitution to demand it.
To that end, the House has scheduled a vote on a balanced budget amendment that would require supermajorities in both chambers to run a deficit, raise the debt ceiling, raise taxes and spend more than 18% of the GDP. With the balanced budget movement gaining momentum, members of the spending lobby want to argue that Congress and the President already have the ability to control spending. Ability and discipline are not the same. If Washington actually had the discipline to live within its means over the long-term, every American citizen would not owe $46,000 toward the national debt.
In my view, the importance of these upcoming votes cannot be overstated. The adoption of a Balanced Budget Amendment would make reckless borrowing a thing of the past, and will ensure that our children enjoy futures full of opportunity.
Democrats and Republicans should join together to do the right thing, pass this amendment, and make a real difference for the future of our country.

Beware of Policies and Legislation Based on the Generational Accounting Scam
The Peter G. Peterson Foundation (PGPF) and its allied army of associated deficit hawks want the Congressional Budget Office (CBO), the General Accountability Office (GAO), and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to do fiscal gap accounting and generational accounting on an annual basis and, upon request by Congress, to use these accounting methods to evaluate major proposed changes in fiscal legislation. Generational Accounting is an invalid long-range projection method that doesn't take into account inflation, the projected value of the Government's capability to issue fiat currency and reserves in the amounts needed to fulfill Congressional appropriations, and re-pay its debts, the projected non-Government assets corresponding to government liabilities, the likely economic impacts of Government spending, surpluses, and deficits, the impact of accumulating errors on projections, and the biases inherent in pessimistic AND contradictory assumptions. It is a green eye shade method that ignores both economic and political reality.
If you want America to end deficit terrorism and austerity, and to have the fiscal policy space it needs to begin to restore the American Dream, then you need to defeat proposed policies or legislation which puts building blocks in place to bias fiscal policy towards austerity and the economic decline it will surely produce for ourselves, our children, and for their children. Proposed policies and legislation of this kind must be defeated for the following seven reasons. Read more about Beware of Policies and Legislation Based on the Generational Accounting Scam

Yes We Can Pay for Increasing Social Security Benefits
Some time ago, in the pages of USA Today, Duncan Black, better known to some as Atrios voiced the immediate need for increased Social Security benefits of 20% or more even if it means raising taxes on high incomes, or removing the payroll tax cap on salaries.
Black is right about the need for increased benefits; but legislating that increase doesn't require increasing taxes. In fact, Congress should both increase benefits and remove the payroll tax entirely.
But how is that possible without greatly increasing "the national debt"? The answer to that one is easy. Don't tax or borrow to pay for it. Just mint a single one oz. platinum coin at the beginning of each fiscal year with a face value large enough to cover expected the cost of SS payments. Doing it that way will both take care of retirement needs and also provide a huge shot in the arm for employment, since the increase in Social Security benefit payments and the ending of the payroll tax won't be offset by tax increases elsewhere that will depress aggregate demand.

The Re-invent Democracy Platform and MMT
The MMT Uptake Problem
Proponents of the Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) approach to macroeconomics have had many successes since the approach was first synthesized in coherent form by Warren Mosler. There have been successful predictions of economic conditions: much work showing that the historical record accords with the MMT point of view, rather than the views of other approaches and paradigms, and also many instances where representatives of other approaches to economics have suddenly begun to use economic views first put forward by MMT economists.
So, it's surely true that MMT has been making progress in its quest to become the dominant economic paradigm guiding macroeconomic and fiscal policy in nations. But for some of us writing about issues relating to MMT progress seems painfully slow. A big part of the reason for slow progress is the difficulty of getting MMT views into the mass media consistently, which is seen as a necessary step in getting them popular currency.

A Bottom-Up Solution to the Global Democracy Crisis
Before the "no" vote on Scotland's independence, The New York Times, carried a post by Neil Irwin in the Upshot making the point that the then upcoming vote "shows a global crisis of the elites." He argues that the independence drive reflects ". . . a conviction — one not ungrounded in reality — that the British ruling class has blundered through the last couple of decades." He also thinks that this applies to the Eurozone and the United States to varying degrees, and is ". . . a defining feature of our time."
Irwin then updated his first post last night, expanding it and recognizing the victory of the "no" votes in the referendum. His new post did not add anything essential to his "global crisis of the elites" diagnosis, so the references and quotations below come solely from his pre-vote post. But the points made apply equally well to his update.
To summarize his argument, for decades now, the elites in major modern, industrial nations have committed leadership blunders and created great discontent among the citizens of their nations, to the point where their polices have contributed to damaging their economies seriously, and the rise of popular resistance embodied in extremist parties and independence movements. Elites have had vast power, but have not lived up to their responsibilities to serve the people of their nations. Discontent with their actions and results is so high that many are questioning the legitimacy of the very governing institutions that claim to serve them, and are exhibiting a greater and greater willingness to do something about these institutions and the policies that they and the elites are generating. Scotland is but one example of that, and his implication is that more examples are in the offing.
It's significant, some might say even remarkable, that Irwin's article appeared in The New York Times, since it is a flat out criticism of elite leadership over a number of decades and a warning to elites to improve their performance or deal with the consequences. But I think it still misses the most important question. That question is whether there is a global crisis of elites or a global crisis of democracies? I'm afraid I think that the crisis of elite leadership is only a symptom of the underlying cause of a broader global crisis of democracy.

Turnout for Teachout and Wu
Unlike some I still have a thin shred of hope in the power of the ballot because I don't think people are stupid as a whole, just slow to learn and easily influenced.
We've had 40 years at least to prove that neo-liberal, trickle-down, perfect market economics do not work. They have demonstrated failure in tangible ways that show up at your dinner table every day as you CCPI substitute pet food for people food and wear out your cheap off shored rags in weeks and not years. Your quality of life is declining and it's harder to disguise.
This is not the inevitable increase of entropy, it's the result of management decisions made by our government to enrich our elites at the expense of everyone else.
Fortunately conditions like this do not persist. Whenever there are too many of us and not enough of them there is a revolution. The propaganda becomes repetitive and unbelievable, the cognitive dissonance too much to overcome.
You are not alone. Millions of people see the same things you do, think the same things you think. Including the elites, that's why they are worried and are investing so heavily in more propaganda and more coercive tools for the suppression of mass sentiment. Submit to the charms of illusion or the iron boot of oppression, it matters not as long as you submit.
But ultimately they are dependent on your voluntary submission. They make the calculation that they can distract you with bright and shiny objects or so disillusion you that apathy seems rebellion.
My cynicism is dark and deep, but not that deep. Nope, I'm actually an optimistic sort of guy- not that it does any good.
I think that politicians, who remain at least nominally subject to a process of public approval, and pundits/media news people, who are more directly and immediately dependent on their audience, are open to influence from the populace and ignore it at their peril.
Ways to show that are by showing up at the polls and voting Third Party, changing your registration to a Third Party, or by voting for Third Party candidates like Teachout and Wu in major party primaries. If nothing else you can make Chuck Todd's head explode which is always fun.
I approach this incrementally and pragmatically. If we continue to vote for the lesser of two evils, it is still evil. If the current conditions persist more radical solutions than mine will gain urgency.
If I seem like a centrist, I AM! My beliefs are rooted in the core of New Deal Democracy and Keynesian Economics. It is Andrew Cuomo and his corrupt crony capitalism and double dealing 'bi-partisanship' that prop up the corpse of the New York Republican Party as a Boogieman too scary to dare deserting a Democratic Party that has abandoned every principle and promise.
I am not afraid.
I'd prefer that it not come to pitchforks and torches because I'm more comfortable not being poked and fire has a disturbing tendency to spread beyond your magical circle of intent, but you use the tools you have and if you doubt their efficacy in a modern environment I invite a closer study of recent developments where overwhelming power has not produced the desired results. Humans are a recalcitrant and obstinate lot.
Should you live and vote in New York as a registered Democrat I invite you today to take positive action and indicate your disapproval of Andrew Cuomo and Kathy Hochul.
Vote for Zephyr Teachout and Tim Wu.
It is really the very least you can do. Read more about Turnout for Teachout and Wu

Real Fiscal Responsibility: What Chris Hayes Said
I'm interrupting my series on Government Real Fiscal Responsibility to being you this special post, on something Chris Hayes said relating to Real Fiscal Responsibility. Back in February of 2014, he tweeted:
"If you can run a deficit to go to war, you can run a deficit to take care of veterans." - @chrislhayes #inners
— All In w/Chris Hayes (@allinwithchris) March 1, 2014
Recently, that tweet along with an image has been making the rounds on Facebook as an Alternet photo. The sound bite in the tweet looks great, after the manner of a logical truism.
But, logically, it doesn't follow, because one can easily say that as long as the Government implicit in the statement isn't a currency issuer, but a currency user who must acquire its funds by taxing or borrowing alone, that Government can involuntarily run out of funds. And it is conceivable that funds might be raised to fund a war, while that same Government might not have the funds available to take care of the people who fought for the nation, without defaulting on its obligations.

Real Fiscal Responsibility 5; Carter: Environmental Degradation
This, the fifth post in a series evaluating the fiscal responsibility/irresponsibility of the Governments of the United States (mostly the Congress, the Executive Branch, and the Federal Reserve) by Administration periods, beginning in 1977 to 1981 with the Jimmy Carter period, will cover the performance of the Government on the environment and climate change aspect of "public purpose." Posts 1, 2, 3, and 4, discussed some basic definitions and assumptions of the series and evaluated Government performance relating to economic stagnation, living wage full employment, price stability/inflation, implementing universal health care, and educational reform.
I've explained why fiscal responsibility is closely connected to the idea of public purpose, in this post prior to beginning the series. You'll want to read it, if you want to know what I mean by "public purpose," and see what else that pregnant term includes, apart from enhancing the environment.
In the first post, I also claimed that the Government of the United States has been fiscally irresponsible in every Administration period since 1977, because its fiscal policies have largely worked against key aspects of public purpose. The first 4 posts supported that claim across 5 aspects of public purpose, as will this one. Future posts in this series will attempt to document it across additional aspects of public purpose.

Real Fiscal Responsibility 4; Carter: Education Reform
If you're reading this you've landed near but not at the beginning of my very lengthy series evaluating the fiscal responsibility/irresponsibility of the Governments of the United States (mostly the Congress, the Executive Branch, and the Federal Reserve) by Administration periods, beginning in 1977 - 1981 with the Jimmy Carter period. My first post explained why I chose to start my evaluation with the Carter period, and also laid out my related definitions of fiscal sustainability, and fiscal responsibility.
It explained why fiscal responsibility is closely connected to the idea of public purpose, which I laid out in this post prior to beginning the series. You may want to consult that post, if you want to know what I mean by "public purpose." I also claimed that the Government of the United States has been fiscally irresponsible in every Administration period since 1977.
In my second post, I began by examining the problems of ending economic stagnation, and providing full employment at a living wage, and, I hope, by showing that the Government, during the Carter period, failed to solve either problem because of its commitment to deficit reduction, and budget balancing, in the service of hoped for inflation moderation. The third post in the series, examined how the US Government failed in its efforts to create and maintain price stability, and also failed to provide a solution to the problem of providing the right of receiving health care to every American in need. So, thus far in the first three posts in the series we've seen how the Government during the Carter period failed to 1) end economic stagnation; 2) failed to create and maintain full employment; 3) failed to maintain price stability; and 4) failed to maintain price stability. It did not fail however, to reduce the Federal deficit, which is not in itself an aspect of public purpose, but a presumed means of preserving government solvency, and avoiding inflation. So, I suppose congratulations are due the Government for solving a faux problem and failing to directly address the real ones.
So, from 1977 – 1981, the Government of the United States is thus far 0 for 4 when it comes to achieving real fiscal responsibility through fiscal policy in accordance with key aspects of public purpose. The remaining posts in this series will continue to document the claim that all the US Governments since 1977 have been fiscally irresponsible. In this, the fourth post in the series, I'll evaluate the Government's efforts at educational reform during the Carter period. Will the Government go 0 for 5? We'll see!

Paul McCartney Remembers MJ While Katy Perry Sort of Doesn't Remember Paul
by Mike Stanz
posted Jun 30 2014 5:00AM
This is from a couple of weeks ago, but it's a neat little video clip. Katy Perry and Paul McCartney (who ever thought they would ever share a couch?) were guests on the BBC's
Graham Norton Show
Katy was trying to salute Paul, but she stumbled a little when she got to "… and the fact that you're still here today…" Pretty funny the way it worked out.
And then Paul tells a great story about meeting and working with the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, and some interesting advice Paul gave him. Check it out…

Dean Ambrose vs. Dolph Ziggler, which turned into a six-man match of Ziggler/RVD/Kingston vs. the Shield was a good match, with a number of close calls. It's amazing how Kofi Kingston has fantastic in-ring ability, but has a dead-end gimmick. It does not even have to be a heel turn, but Kofi Kingston needs more of an overhaul than long tights and highlighted locks.
The fact that Ziggler did not actually get to compete for the title signifies him getting his opportunity at Battleground, which should set up a very good match, again. The problem I have, though, is hopefully Battleground will not be a rehashed Night of Champions, and we are seeing that for the most part (minus CM Punk/Ryback, so far). Night of Champions was the worst pay-per-view of the year, and resembling anything close to it is not what's "best for business." The Rhodes Family angle is shaping up pretty good, so that may very well be the difference maker.

Randy Orton vs. Miz definitely was a success in making Orton more venomous, but it does not seem as if the Miz will get any benefit of getting beat down two weeks in a row. Receiving this kind of treatment leading to a PPV match would be one thing, but Orton will be facing Daniel Bryan at Battleground, so where does this leave the Miz? Does he go back to his heel ways after realizing that he can't beat Orton? Something has to happen, because the Miz's already tarnished babyface run is getting much worse.
I still have hope for Miz as a face, becauselike I said beforehe could be the face of SmackDown and feud with Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight Championship. However, it doesn't appear that the WWE has any plans for him other than being Orton's personal whipping boy. Sad. Moreover, it has been quite odd that we have seen very little interaction between Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton for the past couple of weeks. With Battleground rapidly approaching, that probably is not the best idea for the main event match.

Perfect three-panel stories from apparent genius Jasper Rietman
"Some radioactive fish, a dinosaur burger and a loaf of house, please." Certainly. Jasper Rietman where have you been all my life?! Totally comfortable with inventing whole stories and then explaining them succinctly in just three panels of a comic strip, often with no text, Jasper is a humble hero of the comic world. Look at the strip with the grizzly blue fish swimming through a black sea, watch him crawl out of the murky water and destroy all human civilisation in three panels, Amazing. Move on to one of Jasper's other stories which will no doubt be completely far-removed with regards to the storyline, but nonetheless absolutely genius.
