This last weekend was an example of the motto be careful what you wish for as the bailout of Cyprus turned into a bail in for bank savers there. Whilst Cyprus is only 0.002% of the Euro area economy I pointed out in my update of February 11th that the situation there had the potential to become yet another Euro area debacle.
So she needs help from her Euro area colleagues and the amount required for such a small economy would be like a mouse for an elephant. But as we know mice can unsettle elephants and if we look at an obvious solution which would be a debt haircut we find our elephant does indeed have a problem. You see it was badged as a "one-off"!
Indeed I then went further.
We also know that the "solutions" applied so far in the Euro area have invariably made matters worse and accordingly I fear for Cyprus and her economy.
As I review the shambles that took place over Friday night and Saturday morning I see that my worst fears did in fact come true. I would call the Euro area leaders comedians except for the obvious fact that as Fleetwood Mac put it the result is "Its not that funny is it?"
Cyprus has not been in the Euro for long
It was only on the 1st of January 2008 that Cyprus joined the Euro having used it to replace the Cypriot pound. So it has not taken long to go wrong has it?
Indeed this benefit of joining the Euro quoted by the Governor of the Bank of Cyprus now creates at best a wry smile.
in a stable environment governed by EU laws and regulations
So how did things go so wrong so fast?
I reviewed the situation concerning the Cypriot economy on February 11th but there have been two clashing issues.
1. Cyprus has become a favoured destination for Russian savers with some of the money being heavily suspected to be part of a mafia/oligarch web. In other words there has been a money laundering issue. Getting accurate measures of the scale is difficult but of the 68.4 billion in Cypriot banks as of the end of January some 20.9 billion were from non-Euro residents.
2. This moved from a policing/regulatory issue to a financial disaster when Cypriot banks took the advice given by many of the "experts" favoured by the BBC and decided to invest such funds in Greek government bonds. After all what could go wrong? Also exactly what have the regulators been doing?
As the Greek government bond market collapsed and then was hit by the debt haircut called the Private Sector Initiative as well this plan shot up the list of financial debacles and disasters. The Governor of the Bank of Cyprus put it thus.
The Greek PSI alone cost Cypriot banks nearly 25% of the country's GDP, because of excessive concentration of Greek debt in the balance sheets of the two largest Cypriot banks.
And of course in a world of privatisation of bank profits but socialisation of bank losses this led to this.
The Cypriot taxpayer is now facing a bank bailout package that could be as high as €10 billion, which is equivalent to over 50% of Cyprus's GDP. As a proportion of GDP it is one of the largest bank bailouts ever, second only to the 1997 bank bail out in Indonesia.
The proposed solution
Firstly we get the standard response of more austerity.
the adoption of consolidation measures amounting to 4 ½ % of GDP
As the Cypriots considered the downwards push given here to her economy they may have wondered about what " further measures mobilising internal resources" might be?! Well here they are.
Bank savings/deposits up to 100,000 Euros will be taxed at a rate of 6.75% and those above will be taxed at a rate up to 9.9%
You may be wondering about the bank deposit scheme in Cyprus? Exactly and a rubicon has been crossed here. Those in the know would be aware that Cyprus (like Ireland for example) could not fulfill the promises made by her deposit guarantee scheme but her ordinary citizens are likely not only to have been unaware of this but of course to have been promised exactly the reverse by their leaders. Also there has been an implied European backstop by the way deposit guarantee schemes were all set at 100,000 Euros which suggested some type of joint liability without actually providing it.
If we look for responsibility for this we see that apparently nobody is! Denials are everywhere as we face the prospect of the proposal inventing itself. Actually tucked away in the corner sitting quietly is the European Central Bank which had threatened to withdraw support from Laiki Bank (no more Emergency Liquidity Assistance or ELA) if a deal was not done.
Also in return bank savers will get shares in Cypriot banks. You may think that this adds insult to injury on the current prospects! But the spin is that this is an asset swap rather than a robbery.
Consequences and Issues
There are a world of themes and issues here. Let me start with Cyprus and then widen the discussion to the Euro and the rest of the world.
Cyprus faces economic collapse
1. A weakened economy now has found itself committed to yet more austerity. We know what happens next from what we have already seen elsewhere in the Euro perpiphery. This has been given a further push by withdrawing between 6.75% and 9.9% of the deposits from the banking system. Cypriot residents had 42.8 billion Euros of bank deposits as of the end of January and this will shrink by at least 3 billion Euros now. So another credit crunch has been created with an extraordinary contraction in both the Cypriot money supply and the perceived assets of Cypriots. Actually it was already falling as of the end of January with some 1.7 billion Euros being withdrawn from the banking system.
So there are genuine fears for the Cypriot economy that we could see a collapse on the scale of Greece. Odd is it not that the word "rescue" in the Euro area then leads to a collapse and yes I will update my financial lexicon.
The Euro Area
There are issues here as the rhetoric does not match the actions. Let me quote the European Commission President Jose Barroso.
In other words, in the euro zone, we are now equipped for any crisis
Well apparently not even a relatively minor Cypriot one. Also should he pick up the phone to Russian President Putin he is unlikely to be calling to emphasise this.
President Barroso said that Russia and the European Union are making good progress in a number of areas of common interest
Wider Issues
Savers and bank depositors
What has happened over the weekend has emphasised quite a few debating points about the status of savings as it like money,wealth,income and so many other economic concepts faces a challenge. We have two initial impacts for savers, the first emotional and the second factual.
1. Shock and surprise no doubt followed by fear for the future.
2. An actual financial loss.
If we move on from the contractionary effect of this we get to some economic theory.
Savings and bank deposits are a (usually) short notice loan to a bank. The modern era of electronic banking and at times instantaneous movement of funds has moved the general perception away from this. In practice bank deposits have often become more flexible and usable than cash itself as we found ourselves at times asking the question,what is money?
But as has happened so often in the credit crunch era (some of this has been by chance and some by deliberate disinformation and misrepresentation) the flexibility which has made bank deposits look more like cash indeed if I may put it this way have more "cashness" than cash has hidden another trend which is that bank deposits have become riskier and riskier. How much the risk has risen depends to some extent on where you hold your money but in an increasingly interconnected system of "too big to fail" you cannot fully escape it.
I am sorry if this comes as a shock and I repeat that a lot of effort has gone into disinformation in this area so if you feel cheated right now then I feel that you are right to do so. For example consider bank savings guarantee schemes are often not of the scale required although there is an element here of this being a Euro area problem as at the limit countries like the US or UK can simply print more cash to settle debts in a way that individual Euro members cannot. However of course money printing has issues for the exchange rate and inflation as we are reminded yet again of the concept of Catch 22.
Where this has really lurched forward over this weekend is the way that one can call what has happened an asset-swap. Now whilst this is technically true we have seen a swap from an asset with value (cash) to one of little or no current value such as Cypriot bank shares. Otherwise there would be no point! We hit here a very significant point and we are right up to date which is the shift from a bank deposit to equity. I believe that this is very wrong and is a perversion of genuine finance but we cannot rule out that it will happen again and if you are not involved in Cyprus this is what is most significant about what has just taken place. The rules of the game just changed.
I have covered some fundamental issues today and consider this to be one of my thematic posts to which I intend to return. But before I leave the conceptual debate I would like to point out where this has really gone wrong. Those who point out there are two sides to a balance sheet in their rush to include savers and their money in their schemes need also to deal with the debtors too rather than only the savers. In the phrase balance sheet is the word balance after all…
As to events they are spiralling around today as new numbers emerge and then disappear and we have even had a rumour that Gazprom of Russia will step in. But perhaps the clearest signal of the omnishambles taking place is that the Central Bank of Cyprus is unsure whether tomorrow will be a bank holiday or not!

Inequality of Opportunities in Health and the Principle of Natural Reward: Evidence from European Countries
This chapter aims to quantify and compare inequalities of opportunity in health across European countries considering two alternative normative ways of treating the correlation between effort, as measured by lifestyles, and circumstances, as measured by parental and childhood characteristics, championed by Brian Barry and John Roemer. This study relies on regression analysis and proposes several measures of inequality of opportunity. Data from the Retrospective Survey of SHARELIFE, which focuses on life histories of European people aged 50 and over, are used. In Europe at the whole, inequalities of opportunity stand for almost 50% of the health inequality due to circumstances and efforts in Barry scenario and 57.5% in Roemer scenario. The comparison of the magnitude of inequalities of opportunity in health across European countries shows considerable inequalities in Austria, France, Spain and Germany, whereas Sweden, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands and Switzerland present the lowest inequalities of opportunity. The normative principle on the way to treat the correlation between circumstances and efforts makes little difference in Spain, Austria, Greece, France, Czech Republic, Sweden and Switzerland, whereas it would matter the most in Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Poland and Denmark. In most countries, inequalities of opportunity in health are mainly driven by social background affecting adult health directly, and so would require policies compensating for poorer initial conditions. On the other hand, our results suggest a strong social and family determinism of lifestyles in Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Poland and Denmark, which emphasises the importance of inequalities of opportunity in health within those countries and calls for targeted prevention policies.

2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder Convertible 2dr Convertible (1.8L 4cyl 6M)
I have owned this car only for a short period but it is fantastic. I have owned and driven many cars in my time but this has quckly stolen my heart. I love this little car. It drive like every boys childhood dream of owning a Hotwheels, only this is the adult version.
This car is not practicle as you might be able to carry a gallon of milk. It is not a smoth riding car and it can be noisy with the top up. It has one job and that is to put a smile on your face, and that it does everytime you drive it.
My 1st day getting it on the hwy I took a cloverleaf at speeds that would have put another car in the ditch and I didnt even know it. But I had the biggest S(&T eating grin on my face.
This car is fun to drive, it handles superbly, and people cannot help but comment on its excellent looks. I would not recommend it for a commuter car because it has limited space and it has a stiff ride. It is a shame that Toyota no longer produces this vehicle but I am glad that they did not market it heavily either. You don't see them at every stop light. You cannot help but smile while driving this car on a beautiful day.
Handling, fuel mileage, styling.
I didn't purchase it for its cargo space, but a little more room would have been nice.
2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder Convertible 2dr Convertible (1.8L 4cyl 5M)
The MR2 will never appeal to soccer moms, farmers, or anyone who prioritizes "practicality" over fun; however, if you want a reliable, economical, relatively rare, good-looking, and super fun way of getting from point "A" to "B" the MR2 can not be beat.
agility, acceleration, engine sound
dump the cup holder in center console
If you love to drive and don't want to shell out for a Porsche, this is your car. It handles like it's on rails. So much so that it takes a little time to get used to it if you're not accustomed to high performance mid-engine coupes. I've known a couple of people who have these just to take to the track as a sprint car. They handle just that well.
Super easy to put top up/down - you can do it one-handed at a stop light. Near perfectly balanced center of gravity. SMT tranny is an outstanding value. Basically unavailable in any other sports car in this price range.
The wind guard behind the seats cannot be folded up/down with the seats fully reclined. Probably too small if you're over 6' tall. I wish Toyota offered the OEM supercharger they had for earlier models. No real way to boost performance without going off the reservation.
Love my car. With only 9,000 miles on it, it went under an 18 wheeler at 70 mph. If it weren't for the great handling ability and rear wheel drive, I wouldn't be here today. I was able to pull the car out at 70 mph, with the front passengers wheel torn off!! The performance and handling of the MR2 in a situation like ths is outstanding. Over $10,000 later, and 2 months, this car looks and runs better than new. Toyota should be proud of making such a safe and realiable MR2 Spider!! Thank you.
The handling ability of the MR2 is excellent.
Standard cruise control, I had an add-on installed.

Every Star Trek show has those few episodes where you wonder what the fuck everybody was thinking. Even Deep Space 9 had shit like Profit and Lace, in one of the show's best seasons no less.
The difference is we didn't have Profit and Lace as the flagship installment of the franchise in absence of everything else.
I'm not talking about ill-conceived episodes, I'm talking about episodes that do head scratching things for no other reason than to move the plot along (much like the 2009 film did).
One of my absolute personal favorite TOS episodes is
The Naked Time
. But in order for the Enterprise to be compromised we have to believe three absolutely insane things: 1) That during a critical orbit that the Engineering deck only has two officers on duty, 2) That Scott would be gullible enough to abandon engineering on the word of another officer with the only other engineer on duty, 3) That the engineering section has only one door and no way to override the locks.
It's an incredibly stupid set of events that have to happen to make the episode go, but the episode writing outside of that coupled with the acting make it one hell of an entertaining episode.
And you can count mountain sized plot-holes and other stupidities on about eighty percent of Trek episodes as a whole.
Which brings up another point. Not only have we all probably watched a shitload of good and bad Trek, as you pointed out,
, but we've watched a lot more Trek than anyone probably intended to be watched. The TV episodes, even movies, were not written to be pieces that would be watched over and over and picked apart ten, twenty, or even fifty years later. (Fifty years. Yikes!) Not even Shakespeare was writing thinking his works would be scrutinized over four hundred years after they were written. He was entertaining people in the moment.
Very few popular culture TV shows and movies stand the test of time or heavy and repeated scrutiny. Considering they're all shot with finite budgets, deadlines to meet, egos to massage, profitability in mind, and other things that can affect "artistic quality," it's a wonder they can stand up to even one viewing.
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect. -- Mark Twain

Brooklyn Bridge Park is located along the East River and spans over two kilometers of Brooklyn's coastline. The Park, constructed on abandoned cargo and storage piers, aims to transform the hostile environment into a flourishing recreation area while preservation and restoration of natural habitats.
ECOncrete®'s technologies were integrated into the park at two locations; our Ecological Pile Encapsulations under pier 6 and our Tide Pools alongside Pier 4 beach.
ECOncrete® technologies part of SCAPE TEAM's $60M winning "Living Breakwaters" project in the Rebuild by Design Competition, an initiative of the President's Hurricane Sandy Rebuilding Task Force. The project, now under construction in the southern shore of Staten Island, aims to reduce the risks of flooding and storm damage, revive ecologies and connect the community to the shoreline. The project will include ECOncrete®'s Ecological Armoring Units and Tide Pools.
ECOncrete®'s terrestrial bio-active wall tiles were chosen to cover the courtyards walls of the new state comptroller building in Jerusalem, Israel.
ECOncrete®'s bio-active wall elements are designed to induce rapid plant wall coverage of inland buildings. Green plant coverage significantly improves urban landscape, provides cleaner and healthier air, and reduces the ecological footprint of urban development. The physical and chemical properties of the wall elements strongly influence the capability to support and enhance growth. ECOncrete®'s bio-active wall induces natural growth of wall clinging plants, endolithic algae, lichens and mosses. Its high complexity and porosity create moist niches that support flora, without the need for complex soil systems.
ECOncrete® recently launched a large-scale construction project in the new military port of Haifa. In this project ECOncrete® deployed nearly 40 tons of ecological cube-shaped armoring units called Antifers, demonstrating the ability to create bio-diverse habitats in an environment that incorporates massive use of concrete armoring units. The ECOncrete® matrix and the 3D complexity added to the standard armoring units using ECOncrete®'s unique form liners is specifically designed to recruit invertebrate communities and to provide shelter for fish larvae, thus compensating for loss of natural fish habitat in Israeli coastlines.
A major research and development effort of the Company is the study of the behavior of ECOncrete® concrete elements in different marine and coastal environments
In winter 2012 a large scale comparative study was launched testing the biological efficiency of five innovative ECOncrete® matrices, in comparison to standard Portland cement. Test stations are located in the Red Sea, Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean along the East coast of the USA, including Savannah, Georgia, NYC harbor, the Great Lakes and the Florida Keys. This geographic spread provides a good cover of tropical to temperate environments. The results of the study will help turn industrialized and urbanized waterfronts into ecologically active marine zones.
Based on the company's experience in the marine realm, ECOncrete® was appointed to design and fabricate a biologically-active concrete wall at Israel's first Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certified eco-office tower (Azouri EcoTower, Tel-Aviv). The wall is an integral part of the towers' ecological terrace, designed by Studio Urbanof. This unique bio-active concrete wall is designed to function as an active biological substrate, collecting humidity and nutrient particles from the air, and supporting bacteria, endolithic alga, cyanobacteria, infauna and macro-flora. Due to the special design of the wall's surface texture, the microhabitats formed determine the composition of the flora growing on it.

Advance Praise for An Introduction to the Gospel of John
"A bittersweet read! Intended as the introduction to a major revision of the landmark Anchor Bible commentary on John, but sadly cut off by his death in 1998, this work stands alone as a magnificent survey of major issues in the study of the Fourth Gospel. With his accustomed thoroughness and respect for the work of others, even in disagreement, Brown updates and often moves beyond positions first articulated over three decades ago. Scholars will be long in debt to Francis Moloney for his own insightful introduction and conclusion as well as for signposts along the way which point to shifts in Brown's work along with developments subsequent to his death, and current bibliography. This eminently readable work will extend the influence of Brown well into the present century."—Fr. John Donahue, Raymond E. Brown Distinguished Professor of New Testament Studies, St. Mary's Seminary and University
Praise for An Introduction to the New Testament
"A truly magnificent book, composed by our Catholic national treasure."--Commonweal
"A tour de force by a great scholarly mind."—America
Praise for The Death of the Messiah
"Father Raymond Brown has a strong claim to be the most distinguished of American New Testament scholars, and he has few competitors worldwide."—New York Times
"A stunning aray of fresh insights into how the passion stories came into being and what—scene by scene—the four Evangelists really say about the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus."—Newsweek
"The Death of the Messiah is first of all a scholarly work, but it is also enjoyably readable and accessible to the interested layman."—Newsday
Praise for The Birth of the Messiah
"Brown manages to rescue the Christmas story from both the contempt of experts and the sentimentality of naïve laymen…Ordinary Christians can thank this priestly scholar for helping them to put the adult Christ back into Christmas."—Newsweek
"Recommended to readers at all levels and without reservation."—America
When Raymond E. Brown died in 1998, less than a year after the publication of his masterpiece, An Introduction to the New Testament, he left behind a nearly completed revision of his acclaimed two-volume commentary on the Gospel of John. The manuscript, skillfully edited by Francis J. Moloney, displays the rare combination of meticulous scholarship and clear, engaging writing that made Father Brown?s books consistently outsell other works of biblical scholarship.
An Introduction to the Gospel of John represents the culmination of Brown?s long and intense examination of part of the New Testament. One of the most important aspects of this new book, particularly to the scholarly community, is how it differs from the original commentary in several important ways. It presents, for example, a new perspective on the historical development of the Gospels, and shows how Brown decided to open his work to literary readings of the text, rather than relying primarily on the historical, which informed the original volumes. In addition, there is an entire section devoted to Christology, absent in the original, as well as a magisterial new section on the representation of Jews in the Gospel of John.

Nissan supplier plans big regional expansion
Automotive parts manufacturer Calsonic Kansei North America said today it will invest $109 million and in three Middle Tennessee counties, a move that will over time create 1,200 jobs.
Calsonic Kansei works very closely with Nissan, both on the production of parts and their installation into Nissan vehicles. The company plans to pump its $109 million into facilities in Lewisburg, Shelbyville and Smyrna between now and the end of 2015.
"CKNA is pleased to announce its largest expansion in our history in Middle Tennessee," said Calsonic Kansei North America Vice President Human Resources and Legal Bob Masteller. "We are also grateful for the teamwork and cooperation with Gov. Haslam and the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development, who are partnering with us in this expansion. We believe the citizens of Tennessee are one of the best workforces in the world, and we are pleased to be a part of the community in Middle Tennessee."
Calsonic Kansei's investments will break down as follows:
• $49.8 million at its 1,100-employee Lewisburg plant, which manufactures electronic components for meters, inverters and dash electronics, and plastics components for interiors. The money will include the construction of a 300,000-square-foot warehouse and will help create about 520 jobs over the next three years.
• $57.6 million at its 1,000-worker Shelbyville facility, which makes exhaust units, catalytic converters and manifolds. Officials expect to add about 490 jobs over the next three years.
• $2.1 million at its Smyrna facility inside Nissan's plant, where workers place Calsonic products into Nissan vehicles. About 180 jobs will be created over the next three years on top of the roughly 470 Calsonic people who already work there.
"We are grateful to Calsonic Kansei for this significant investment that is creating more than 1,000 Tennessee jobs," said Gov. Bill Haslam. "Along with supporting existing businesses, a big part of our economic development strategy is to focus on the things we do well, and this expansion further solidifies our state's leadership in auto manufacturing."

What Makes Us Special
Reviews of Prestige Senior Living at Orchard Heights
Average Rating: 3.0 out of 5 stars based on 6 Reviews
I visited this facility
Prestige Senior Living is a very nice place. We didn't choose that because it is assisted living, and my mother doesn't need that yet. The rooms are really nice. It is very spacious too. The dining room is nice looking and very welcoming. I am very impressed with that place. The staff that assisted us was very nice and very pleasant. All the places we visited have very helpful staff. I like the grounds, and I like that they have a lot of park type settings. It is very welcoming.
I am a friend or relative of resident
Administration repeatedly made commitments but never followed through.
Caregivers were not properly trained.
Very high amount of employee turnover, The turnover was not limited to just caregivers, supervisory positions also changed frequently.
Very little onsite nurse support, despite claims of having two nurses on staff.
My parent's bed was soaked with urine and nothing was done about it.
I visited this facility
Prestige Senior has assisted and memory care, but we were only interested for memory care. We came across this facility via recommendation by another individual. The environment appeared to be pretty good in the facility but the parking was horrible. There was no place to park for visitors except walking about half a block. The food appeared to be good, but the responsiveness of the administration was horrible. We asked for a call back; we didn't get it, I sent an email didn't get any response, and when I finally got hold of the person, I found out that the individual who was working with us had quit.
The activities are pretty much the same with the other facility I went to. We were not satisfied with the administration response, so they must improve on that and trying to keep the same people working there. My impression when we drove into it was -- where are we going to park?
I visited this facility
Orchard Heights was pretty good. The facility was very clean and it was remodeled. I like the staff because they're very friendly. However, they're a little bit short at times. They need more staffing. The food was pretty decent. I would recommend this place because overall they're pretty good.
I am a friend or relative of a resident
When I was a sophomore in high school I decided to gain some experience and volunteer. I choose this retirement home because it was close to home and I have always wanted to experience working with elders. The facility is beautiful. The rooms are very spacious for each resident and they are able to have a large open area to either sit and talk with other residents, play a game or just relax. Another thing that's really great about this facility is the food. The food is way more than I expected. 3 course meals and always a little dessert. The staff are hard working and always make the residents feel comfortable and tended too. If I ever needed to go into a retirement home I would choose that one.
My loved one stayed here
There was a lot of change at Orchard Heights. While my family member lived there administrators changed twice. There is also a high turnover of employees. These things are to be expected to some degree at an assisted living home as the nature of the work is challenging, however, the amount of change at this facility causes care to lower in quality. My family was pleased with their sizeable room, but frustrated with services. We applaud all individuals working in this line of work.

One for the Books; Avid Readers Make Space for Home libraries.(LIFE - HOME)
Byline: Jen Waters, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Former congresswoman Patricia Schroeder lives in a library.
Mrs. Schroeder, who resides in Alexandria with her husband, James, says they have books in every single room of the house. She is a believer in Thomas Jefferson's motto: "I cannot live without books."
Since becoming the president and chief executive officer of the Association of American Publishers in Northwest in 1997, her collection has increased by leaps and bounds. In order to better organize the volumes, she decided to renovate the carport of their house into a home library, which was completed by Sun Design Remodeling Specialists in Burke.
"The main reason we built it is that we ran out of space for bookshelves in the house," she says. "We're out of them again. I'm not sure what we will do at this point."
Home libraries not only provide a place to store books, but also a quiet retreat in a busy house. In a fast-paced society, the rooms are becoming a popular place for reflection.
Kristin Pfeiffer of Alexandria says her husband, Steven, uses their hidden library as a place of refuge in the home they share with five children. Because the Pfeiffers lived in Wimbledon, England, for about 10 years, Mr. Pfeiffer, who collects first editions, was inspired to model his library after British houses, which often have hidden rooms. One enters Mr. Pfeiffer's library through a secret door in the dining room wall. The door even has pictures hanging on it, which makes it blend in with the rest of the wall. A panel of the wall comes forward when one pulls on a chair rail and opens to the library.
Before the space was a library, it served as a porch, says Mrs. Pfeiffer. It was renovated by Wentworth-Levine Architect-Builder Inc. in Silver Spring. The builders created the room with a vaulted ceiling, which forms an arch. It has a Palladian window, one divided into three parts and named for Andrea Palladio, a Renaissance architect. The room also has a fireplace and hardwood floors.
"My husband loves to sit in there, whether to listen to music or do his work," Mrs. Pfeiffer says. "He has an old English desk that the room was built around, which has secret compartments too."
Having a home library has always been a dream for Bill Thomas of McLean. Even though the previous owners of his house had added several bookcases in the master bedroom and family room before Mr. Thomas acquired it in 1997, he needed more space for his collection of books.
With the help of Merrill Contracting and Remodeling Inc. in Arlington, he tore down the wall between the sitting room and the family room on the first floor and used the space to create a home library. The room is in the same neoclassical style of the overall interior of the house, with taupe walls, white trim and cabinets, and dark mahogany bookshelves.
Taking his cue from the 16th century French essayist Michel de Montaigne, Mr. Thomas asked Eben Conner of the Master's Woodshop in Hagerstown, Md., to etch quotations from some of Mr. Thomas' favorite authors on the front edge of each bookshelf. Montaigne, who had a fondness for inscriptions, covered the beams of his library in Perigord, France, with about 60 inscriptions in Greek and Latin. Most of Montaigne's original chateau burnt in 1865, but the tower that housed his library survives today.
Mr. Thomas included inscribed quotations in English in his home library from writers such as Ovid, Virgil, Plutarch, Sophocles, Goethe and Shakespeare. "History is ... the messenger of antiquity," reads one inscription, from Cicero's "De oratore." Another, "Be not long away from home," is drawn from Book III of Homer's "Odyssey."
Although Mr. Thomas decided to build a library rather than a home office, he did include space for a pair of computers and other electronic equipment in the design of the cabinetry and shelves. …

Bike-parking bollards (also called "post-and-ring" bicycle parking) have the strong ornamental appeal of decorative bollards with the added benefit of secure bicycle storage. Use for decoration and control traffic on sidewalks, open spaces and parking lots. Bike posts minimize clutter and obstruction from improper bike placement on trees, railings, fences and other unsuitable locations.
Prices subject to change without notice.
Most Reliance Foundry iron, steel and aluminum bollards can be equipped with bike locking arms. Take advantage of sleek, contemporary designs or ornate cast bollards to suit the aesthetic of a surrounding building or landscape. Arms are available in stainless steel and powder-coated finishes to match bollard designs and to ensure lasting durability with long-term use.
Bike-parking bollards require only one installation point—whereas bike racks typically require at least two mounting positions. Many bike bollards can be used as covers for steel pipe security bollards or be installed with removable mountings for added flexibility in mixed-use spaces. When used with removable bollards, locking arms can be used as lifting handles for more convenient installation and removal.
Bike-parking bollards offer simple storage solutions for commercial and other outdoor spaces. They are simple and non-intrusive when placed in existing city spaces and parking lots—and can encourage healthier and more environmentally friendly lifestyles.
As a convenient form of bike parking, bike bollards enhance new or existing landscapes to accommodate staff, customers and anyone else visiting the neighborhood. Aside from directing pedestrian and motor traffic, they are a highly visible form of bike storage—helping avoid bikes being chained to nearby railings, trees, benches or other unsuitable alternatives that can obstruct pedestrians.
Bike bollards offer great value to dense urban areas within an active community. Universities, commercial areas, libraries and other public buildings offer prime locations.

Re: Buffy season nine discussion thread
I'm still reading season 9, I just didn't feel a strong urge to come here to post, since it's been very lackluster the whole season. The latest Buffy issue, however, was the best one since... well, a very long time in any case. Perhaps the best since 9.01. Finally the season's plot seems to be shaping up... it only took them 4/5 of the season to get there!
It's good to see them addressing the Twilight fiasco instead of tiptoeing around it and focusing on the smashing of the Seed instead. (Severin's lines about it felt almost like a 4th wall, the comic finally addressing what the fans have been saying.) I continue to be unimpressed with the bland way Buffy has been written by Chambliss, but at least Xander was written rather well.
Angel & Faith
, I hope Gage never writes Spike again, because he writes him really badly. It's like he struggles with writing him, so he writes him as a caricature, exaggerating his smoking, drinking, British slang and shagging. I hated the way they used Harmony and reversed the little, but significant development her dynamic with Spike had in AtS season 5 (i.e. when Spike realized he had been an ass to her and stopped using her).
The Spike title was nicely written and drawn, much better than Spike on A&F was, but it seems to have been ultimately pointless, since the Spike we saw on A&F doesn't seem to have gotten any character development and has only regressed. The Willow title had more to do with the plot of the season, and had some developments for Willow, but I didn't like the pointless resurrection of yet another character from the show
that Willow killed.
Treason, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

To gain absolute control over all demand, production and supply chain activities as well as substantial benefits to the bottom line through a properly integrated S&OP process
Integrated Business Planning is the 24 month rolling horizon for the business, with a month-by-month projection of realistic business performance against the plan
IBP allows the company's most senior executive to identify performance gaps and do something about them in good time with added value.
"Integrated Business Planning provides the perfect platform for innovation, and it creates opportunities for organisations to drive sales up and costs down," explains Harrington. "It gives the senior executive team an accurate and holistic view of the entire business over a 24 to 36 month horizon, which makes it a particular asset in the current business environment."

So DH and I (and our 2 LOs) have finally made the decision to leave the city. We were torn for a long time. Then last month we were faced with having to pay for pre-school (cha-ching) and nanny (double cha-ching) at the same time, and realizing that we'd be paying that for many years to come in private school... Forget about it! We're jumping ship to a place where we can utilize the public school system.
So we have our eyes on the East Bay. We don't intend on selling our house in the city (and buying a new one) until Feb/March of next year. So I'm trying to get a jump on my due dilligence now.
We'd prefer to stay on the bay side of the tunnel, and are focussing our search on some Oakland neiborhoods and Peidmont. I'm looking at schools for the future... but in the meantime (our kidos are 2.5 years and 4 mos) I'd need to look into a daycare type situation.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look? I'd love to hear what some EastBay moms are doing? And if you don't mind... I'm also trying to get a sense of the cost too.

House / 2 bedrooms / sleeps 6
|Key Info
Casa Rosina is an apartment located in a farmhouse, consisting of three
buildings of two floors recently built and divided into several apartments,
each of them with its own entrance, balcony or terrace and private garden. The
residence's quiet and airy surroundings include a green olive grove, typical of
the Cilento National Park. The beach and the sea are well within 500 meters (546
yards) away, and you can reach them by walking along a private path among the
shady olive trees. The beach, five kilometers long (three miles), is sandy and
wide, terminating at the south end with a foaming reef.
As a guest of the farmhouse you can use the large sun deck
with warm outside showers, the kids' playground, and the volleyball and
basketball courts. You will organize charming events with your friends in the
private garden, making pizza in the brick oven or cooking on the barbecue,
accompanied by music and dancing. You will also enjoy the orchard, where there
are fruit trees of all kinds, and where you can discover the taste of truly
fresh fruit.
Casa Rosina is 60 square meters (645 square feet) large, for max six
persons, with three rooms and it is simply and comfortably furnished. It has an
independent entrance, a garden equipped with table, chairs, and deck chairs and
a covered terrace of 25 square meters (270 square feet). There are two bedrooms,
both of them with a double bed and a single bed. In the living room, with TV,
there is a kitchen corner with 4-burner gas stove, oven, refrigerator and
freezer, hood fan. The bathroom is large, with bath tub and shower wand. Central
heating in all the rooms. A shared laundry is outside the house, and is
available for the use of all the guests. There is a parking area. The distance
from the center of the village, and from the train station of Ascea-Velia, is
about 1 km (0.6 miles).
Quite nearby the house, you can play tennis, roller-skate, swim in a pool,
windsurf, play soccer, water-ski, go horseback riding, and enjoy boat excursions
to Palinuro's grottos. The house is located near the archaeological excavations
of Velia, so you might enjoy a visit to these monuments or to the site of
Paestum, or take a trip inland to see characteristic villages, full of history
and ancient traditions of handcraft and cuisine. A large supermarket is only 200 meters (220 yards) from the property. It is also possible to enjoy
the several musical, sport and theatrical events that take place during the
summer period.

The Campania region
Campania region is the beginning of the 'mezzogiorno'. Translating as the 'midday' the phrase evokes the sun-baked south. And Campania - with its ancient Greek and Roman towns, rumbling volcanoes and glittering blue coastline, at times evokes Classical Greece as much as modern Italy. You could be a million miles from bureaucratic and businesslike Milan.
Throughout much of its history Campania has been at the centre of Western Civilisation's most significant entities. The area was colonised by Ancient Greeks and was within Magna Græcia, until the Roman Republic began to dominate. During the Roman era the area was highly respected as a place of culture by the emperors, where it balanced Greco-Roman culture. The area had many duchies and principalities during the Middle Ages, in the hands of the Byzantine Empire and some Lombards.
It was under the Normans that the smaller independent states were brought together as part of a sizeable European kingdom, known as the Kingdom of Sicily, before the mainland broke away to form the Kingdom of Naples. It was during this period that especially elements of Spanish, French and Aragonese culture touched Campania. Later the area became the central part of the Two Sicilies under the Bourbons, until the Italian unification of 1860 when it became part of the new state Italy.
The capital city of Campania is Naples. Campania is rich in culture, especially in regards to gastronomy, music, architecture, archaeological and ancient sites such as Pompeii, Herculaneum and Paestum. The name of Campania itself is derived from Latin, as the Romans knew the region as Campania felix, which translates into English as "fortunate countryside". The rich natural sights of Campania make it highly important in the tourism industry, especially along the Amalfi Coast, Cilento Coast, Mount Vesuvius and the island of Capri.
Ascea is a small village counting less than 6000 souls, located in the hearth of Cilento National Park, approximately 86 km (53 miles) south of Salerno. Its origin dates back to the thirteenth century, when the people of Velia moved away from their home-town to escape the unhealthy environment caused by the nearby swamps.
The Marina of Ascea, or Ascea Marina, is currently renowned as excellent seaside resort, with 6 km (4 miles) of sandy beaches, the mild climate of the Cilento, the nearby excavations of Velia, and a train station that makes it very easy to reach for travelers who prefer not to rent a car.
