EconStor Policy
EconStor provides a basis for free publication of academic literature from all fields of economics and related disciplines. The publication as well as the use of documents on EconStor is free of charge. With EconStor, the ZBW as a Leibniz institution actively supports the implementation of Open Access Principles according to the " Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities " signed by the Leibniz Association.
The following types of documents can be published on EconStor:
Articles from journals and compilations can be published on EconStor in the original version of their first publication as well as in the version of so-called "postprints" (identical author's versions of articles from publishers' journals). At " Publisher copyright policies & self-archiving (SHERPA/RoMEO database) " authors can find out whether a publisher permits parallel, free publication of articles on a subject repository such as EconStor as well as which version may be used for such publication, i.e. the original publisher's version or the postprint.
Submitting authors must be members/employees of an academic institution (inside or outside a university). Furnishing an e-mail address for registration that can be attributed to such an institution is considered sufficient proof. We can only accept submissions by graduate researchers in economics, business administration and related disciplines. Undergraduate papers are not accepted. Documents must be submitted as "Portable Document Format" (PDF) only.
When self-archiving their publications, authors transfer rights by agreeing to the " EconStor Deposit Licence " during the upload process. Authors' copyrights remain intact. Publication on EconStor does not inhibit further publication of documents in journals or on other document servers. Authors and/or publishers of electronic documents are responsible for safeguarding that publication on EconStor does not violate third party rights (copyrights or exploitation rights).
DPublishers of series, journals or conference proceedings can conclude publication agreements with the ZBW, so that these titles are fully documented on EconStor. The ZBW provides a full service for this, taking care of uploading PDF files as well as preparing all corresponding title data, including abstracts, keywords and classifications (JEL codes).
EconStor guarantees long-term free availability (minimum availability for all documents is 5 years) and stable linking of economic research results. In order to ensure permanent addressing, all documents are tagged with a "HDL identifier" according to the Handle system as a "persistent identifier" and are authenticated technically through "MD-5 fingerprints". Goportis is running a cooperative digital preservation system. Automated workflows for the ingest of EconStor content into the system have been developed. The digital preservation of EconStor content and necessary adaptions of digital objects within the system are made on the basis of the Goportis Long-Term Digital Archives Preservation Policy.
All metadata will be made available to other service providers through a standardised interface consistent with the "Protocol for metadata harvesting (OAI-PMH 2.0)" of the "Open Archive Initiative". (OAI base URL of EconStor: http://www.econstor.eu/dspace-oai/request). The metadata of EconStor are available under Creative Commons License CC0 1.0 and can be freely used by third parties without restriction and without citing the source.
Publications from economics institutions of the Leibniz Association will be automatically integrated into the "Leibniz Open Access Repository". The ZBW offers to all German institutions which agree to have their complete working or discussion paper series, conference proceedings or e-journal contributions published on EconStor the option to have the corresponding title data entered into the freely accessible database " RePEc – Research Papers in Economics .
Altered texts – such as revised versions of already published working papers – are regarded as new documents and will be indexed, stored and made available as such. Deleting published documents for serious reason at the author's or another authorised person's request is possible, but will be executed solely by the EconStor team. In order to maintain stable linking, only the PDF full-text will be deleted; the corresponding EconStor set of metadata will be preserved. Requests for deletion must be addressed to .

- 4 oranges
- Cloves
- Rind of 1 lemon
- 2 bay leaves
- 3/4 cup cognac, brandy, or bourbon
- 3 1/2 bottles red wine

Recipe notes: With this rich hot beverage, serve some small dry cookies or cakes or tiny ham, cheese, or roast beef sandwiches. A cheese and bread platter would also be a delicious accompaniment, but be sure to keep it simple.
Hot Spiced Wine
James Beard
Author and Educator
Hot spiced wine, also known as "mulled wine," goes by many names: glögg in Swedish, glühwein in German, vin chaud in French, and so on, and varies slightly from country to country. It is simply red wine heated with sugar and spices, and often lemon or orange rind, originally a process used to reconstitute wine that had gone bad. These days, cold-weather celebrations and holidays call for a huge punch bowl of hot spiced wine to enliven the festivities.
Yield: Approximately 1 gallon
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Stick whole cloves into oranges, making a pattern if you like. Bake the oranges for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are heated through and the cloves begin to show a little white dust, which looks very attractive.
Place oranges in a large heatproof bowl of silver or ceramic with the lemon rind and bay leaves. Heat cognac and pour it over the oranges, set it alight, and let it burn down. While it is burning, pour over the oranges about 3 bottles of good dry red wine, such as a California Pinot Noir or Cabernet Sauvignon, heated until very hot, but not boiling. Add the sugar and stir it in well. (The amount of sugar is up to you; you can sweeten to taste. I like a minimum or none at all, if the wine is good.)
Stir well and serve warm in mugs or glasses with a little twist of orange peel.

loaches dying? help!
hey so i had a couple dojo loaches in my african cichlid 30 gal. they'd been living in there fine for about 3 months. and this week they both un expectedly died. When the first one died i did a massive water change. but the otther one died a couple days later. i checked for ich but it wasn't there on them or any of the other fish. I just don't get it.
oh that's awful :(
are all the other fish ok ?
Sorry to hear about your loaches. Could you let us know how long the tank has been running, what the other inhabitants are, tank maintenance routine and your water readings for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate?
What species are these cichlids? You are mixing the loaches with the wrong fish. First of all, dojos are temperate species so it is not surprising they don't live long in tropical conditions. Secondly, a lot of African cichlids are nasty so loaches if bullied constantly eventually die from severe stress. Third, your tank is overstocked. African cichlids need a bare 55g minimum to avoid territorial disputes.
a couple of dojo's shd be in a much bigger tank....they grow to be 15 inches!
Think they can live in a heated tank tho, but its not ideal. And what isn't ideal is no good for me. Basically what was said in the post before mine

Live like you'll die tomorrow, learn like you'll live forever.
Matt lives in Seattle and works for Microsoft as a Program Manager on Windows. He can be found on twitter @MattHidinger, blogging right here, working on various open source projects, and participating in the local community.
In his free time he has published two apps to the Windows Phone marketplace: CTA Watch and Transit Directions.
This post was spawned as I was reviewing the latest Oxite source code on CodePlex. I've been reading any source code I could get my hands on lately looking for inspiration to cure my "winter coding boredom." While it isn't winter yet, it is fast approaching, which means less outdoors time and more computer time. I try to blog more, update my open source projects with a new release, and with any luck begin a new project worth getting passionate about.
Today I'm going to hit the ground running with a short tip, again, on the yield keyword.
The following code is an excerpt from the Oxite Blog class. Blog as it turns out, is a Cacheable Entity (ICacheEntity) where the designer of the interface determined that cached entities can specify any dependencies they may have. Clearly, the developer of the ICacheEntity interface understood iterators and realized that the consumer of...
Today I began integration testing my SqlRepository while I experiment with an MVC prototype. I tried googling for a simple base class for integration testing a LINQ to SQL DataContext that would provide automatic rollback between each test, but after (minimal) searching, decided to simply write my own. Perhaps this will help someone. This base class was written for MS Test, but simply renaming the attributes accordingly would yield the same results on nUnit, xUnit, etc. The Code Simply inherit your test class from this base class and any changes done via the internal Context property will be automatically rolled back after each test runs. /// <summary>
/// The base class will allow LINQ to SQL integration testing with automatic rollbacks after each test
/// </summary>
/// <typeparam name="TContext">The type of data context to use</typeparam>
public abstract class RolledBackDataContextTests<TContext> where TContext : DataContext
private TContext _context;
This was one of the first extension methods I wrote when C# 3.0 arrived, since I just stumbled across it on an older project I figured I might as well post it, if for nothing else but future reference. One downside to be aware of if you choose to use this method, is that it will not project the results on a IQueryable provider like LINQ to SQL, so please be aware the conversion will be done on the client side.
The Code
public static class DelimitedStringExtensions
public static string DefaultDelimiter = ", ";
/// <summary>
/// Convert a sequence of items to a delimited string. By default, ToString() will be called on each item in the sequence to formulate the result. The default delimiter of ', ' will be used
/// </summary>
public static string...
LINQ and Expression Trees have enabled a ton of possibilities for us as developers, particularly in establishing some code-reducing convention based querying. I have found myself playing with Expressions in C# since their inception and will hopefully be publishing a few other posts I have queued up. For now, this post will simply demonstrate how to take advantage of a popular convention whereby each database table always has a single integer primary key named "Id" By taking advantage of this primary key convention I can save myself a ton of boilerplate code to query a table by ID. The Extension Method public static T GetById<T>(this IQueryable<T> query, int id) where T : class
// Create lambda parameter x of type T
var param = Expression.Parameter(typeof(T), "x");
// Given x param, extract the Id property

Echinococcus is an infection caused by the echinococcus multilocularis worm, which is a parasitic tapeworm. The infection is rare in the United States. It occurs more often in the Middle
East, Africa, Central Asia, and the Mediterranean.
A few different types of tapeworms can cause echinococcus. In some instances, the organs affected by the infection depend on which type of tapeworm has caused the infection. The three forms of infection that can occur
in humans are: E. granulosus, E. multilocularis, and E. vogeli.
The cause of echinococcus is infection by a tapeworm. The parasite enters a host, which is usually an animal, such as a dog, sheep, or goat. The worm lives in the bowels of the animal. The worm then releases eggs into the feces of the animal. For humans, the most common means of transmission is eating food that has been accidentally contaminated with animal feces. After eating contaminated food, the incubation period, which refers to how long before symptoms start, is usually a few months. Certain strains of the parasite can have a longer incubation period, up to a few years.
One risk factor for contracting the parasite is being exposed to the feces of dogs, cattle, pigs, and sheep. Cases of the infection have been reported in the United States, but the risk is higher in countries where the parasite is more common.
Symptoms vary depending on which organs are affected. According to Stanford University, about 75 percent of people who develop the infection have liver problems. Symptoms often include pain in the abdomen and the formation of cysts on the liver. About 22 percent of people have respiratory symptoms because the infection affects the lungs. Symptoms may include chest pain and coughing up bloody mucus. Other areas of the body can also be affected, including the skin, spleen, and kidneys (Stanford University).
Medical tests and an examination of the symptoms can help diagnose the infection. A chest X-ray will rule out other types of infection. An abdominal MRI or CT scan may also be used in order to make a diagnosis. Because the incubation period can be long, the parasite is sometimes discovered while testing for other reasons.
Certain medications can destroy the parasite. The treatment used may depend on the severity of symptoms.
Medication is almost always used to treat echinococcus and may include mebendazole or albendazole. The parasite can also cause inflammation of the organs. Anti-inflammatory medication is also used to treat this.
In some instances, when cysts are present, surgery may be recommended. According to the National Institutes of Health, surgery is complicated and may not be recommended in all cases.
If the infection has affected the brain, fluid can accumulate. A shunt may be placed to drain fluid from the brain.
The prognosis depends on the extent of the infection and on the organs of the body involved. In some instances, cysts may rupture, which can be life threatening. According to the National Institutes of Health, if the cysts are reduced and respond to the medication, the outlook is often good.
There are several different ways to prevent an echinococcus infection. In areas of the world where the parasite is common, education can help. Removing the worms from dogs can reduce the chances of infection. In addition, proper handling of cattle at farms and slaughterhouses, which includes enforcing meat inspection procedures, is essential to prevent the infection.
Correct disposal of animal feces can also reduce exposure to tapeworm eggs.
Washing fruit and vegetables, especially in areas where the tapeworm is common, can also reduce infection. Avoiding undercooked or raw beef, pork, and fish can also help prevent echinococcus.

LYNN HAVEN, Fla- Let's move it inside and take it over to the Redfern Gym, coach Canfield and the Lady Dolphins hosting district rival Niceville. The latter in the dark jerseys....and moving the ball here on transition, ahead to number 32 Lauren Day and she gets the layup.
A bit later, they work it around for the baseline drive, courtesy #15 Alexis Cheeks, and she delivers two more. Mosley working to stay in it, they go to their "go to" girl, Deanna Canfield, she connects on the three pointer. But the Lady Eagles come back with a long range shot by Marsel Mosley,

Kids in Nature
7 Simple Ideas for Family Fun
- Look for spring wildflowers. Find two different flowers and compare the flower petals.
- Draw a picture of each flower.
- Go on a spring picnic to enjoy the warmer air and the growing plants.
- Oriole birds arrive in Missouri the week of April 22. See if you can spot one.
- Look for flowering dogwood trees.
- Take the No MOre Trash! litter pledge. "I promise to do my part to make and keep Missouri litter free. I promise to keep my house, my yard, and my town clean and free of trash. I will throw my trash away and pick up trash when I see it. I will tell my family and friends about No MOre Trash!"
- Take a walk and find a tree that has buds.
- Build a bird's nest. Gather about 300 twigs and pieces of dead grass. Weave them together to form a bowl about as wide and deep as your hand. Then, find a puddle and gather mud to cement the whole thing together.

An affectionate photographic portrait of the people who own the unique beach huts along the North Kent coast, a flat area of shingle beach and marshland along the old Saxon Shore Way.
Climate change and rising sea levels are a threat to the survival of these colourful huts, some dating back to the 1950's, and some have already been demolished to make way for caravan parks or other developments.
Angie is interested in recording places, the natural world and ways of life that are under threat from development, economic pressures or environmental change. Using a variety of cameras, both film and digital, her colour photographs try to represent an accurate visual record of time and place. Angie has exhibited her photographic prints at the Horsebridge Gallery in Whitstable, the Ebbisham Centre in Epsom, Bourne Hall in Ewell and the Reigate School of Art and Design where she studied photography. A selection of photographs are available as greetings cards.

Tankmate Suggestions For 180 Gallon
i had 6 tinfoil barbs and 6 bala sharks in a 100 gallon tank....they are all about 4 inches long
i recently set up a 180 gallon tank and moved all the fish into it
now im looking at adding fish to this tank but not sure what to go with....i was originally thinking about some ID sharks or silver dollars....but now im thinking about maybe some bottom dwelling fish like cats, corys, or clown loaches,
any suggestions?
I know the present fish may not seem like much in the larger tank, but remember that they will grow to 8/14 inches (the Tinfoil, depending which species) and 14-16 inches (Bala) and these need swimming space.
The Tinfoil will eat smaller fish, but I don't know how far this applies to substrate fish. Some of the larger loaches would work, but I would probably avoid the clown loach as this gets large too, and requiring a group will take up a lot of space. There are some other nice loaches that max out around 5-6 inches, check the profiles.
im looking for a small school of bottom dwelling fish, something that is a bit out of the ordinary....no clown loaches or cory cats.....something a bit different :-)
any suggestions?

NEW YORK (AP) -- Lou Reed, the punk-poet of rock n' roll who profoundly influenced generations of musicians as leader of the 1960s cult band Velvet Underground and remained a vital solo performer for decades after, has died.
Reed's literary agent Andrew Wylie says the legendary musician died Sunday morning in Southampton at age 71 of an ailment related to his recent liver transplant.
Reed never approached the commercial success of such contemporaries as the Beatles and Bob Dylan, but no songwriter to emerge after Dylan so radically expanded the territory of rock lyrics. And no band did more than the Velvet Underground to open rock music to the avant-garde -- to experimental theater, art, literature and film, to William Burroughs and Kurt Weill, to John Cage and Andy Warhol, Reed's early patron and longtime inspiration.

February 22, 2000
In July of 1999, the Senate passed its version. The Patients Bill of Rights Act of 1999 (S. 1344). This legislation, sponsored by Senator Trent Lott (R-MS), does not provide adequate protections and only covers about one-third of Americans (see background information below). In October 1999, the House passed its version, the Bipartisan Managed Care Improvement Act of 1999 (H.R. 2723). This bill, co-sponsored by Representatives John Dingell (D-MI) and Charles Norwood (R-GA), is supported by most HIV/AIDS and other healthcare consumer advocates and provides many real protections for people living with HIV/AIDS.
The Senate bill received only Republican support, with all Democrats and two Republican senators voting against it. However, the House version was approved by a bipartisan majority, with 68 Republicans breaking from the leadership and voting for the legislation. President Clinton has indicated his support for the House version.
The joint House/Senate conference committee made up of 12 senators and 21 representatives will soon meet to work out differences between the two bills. The final product from the committee will then be sent to the full House and Senate for a vote before going to the president for his signature or veto. Congressional leadership has indicated that it wants to finish work on managed care legislation before Easter. Your letters and phone calls are needed immediately to influence the work of the committee and ensure that it supports the strongest protections!
While both pieces of legislation are touted as providing meaningful protections for managed care consumers, there are significant differences between them.
The Senate bill would apply to even fewer individuals. This legislation only covers those whose employers act as the insurer for their employees and are called "self-insured." In other words, the employer designs the insurance plan, pays the claims, and assumes financial risks involved. These employers are generally only very large companies. You may want to ask your employer if you fall in this category. The House bill would cover employees regardless of whether their employer is self-insured or simply pays for the insurance for their employees.
However, those who receive health coverage through Medicare or Medicaid, who do not receive coverage through their employer but buy their own insurance, or who receive coverage through a public employer (such as the federal, state, or local government) would not be affected by either legislation.
The main differences between the two bills lie in the protections offered by each proposal. Advocates are supporting the House provision because it offers significant consumer protections not included in the Senate version.
H.R. 2723 Contains Important Protections Not Found in S. 1344:
Both Bills Contain Important Managed Care Protections:
However, it's important to remember that the Senate version only covers a small number of insured people, so many would not receive these protections.
In addition, there are political reasons to advocate for the strongest bill possible. There is currently bipartisan support in Congress and the public -- as well as the Clinton Administration -- for managed care reform legislation. This could change after the November election. It is important to join this battle for appropriate protections for managed care even though this bill won't affect the millions of uninsured Americans. As we advocate for more access to care for those who have no insurance coverage, we also have to fight for the quality of the health care that does exist. We must ensure that people have access to quality care with appropriate protections for themselves and their loved ones. Finally, if Congress passes a weak bill, and it is signed into law, many policy-makers and representatives of the health care industry will consider their work done and we might not see stronger protections for a long time.
Write or call your U.S. Representative and two U.S. Senators this week.
Urge them to support the strong protections included in H.R. 2723 and to reject the inadequate protections and coverage in S. 1344. Ask them to convey their support to members of the conference committee. If your representative or senator is on the conference committee (see list below), it is extremely important that you contact him or her as soon as possible.
You can use the sample phone message and letter below to help craft your message.
"I am calling regarding the Patients Bill of Rights, which is currently in conference committee. I support the provisions included in H.R. 2723, and urge Representative/Senator_________________to urge members of the conference committee to support the protections included in that bill."
The Honorable______________
U.S. Senate or U.S. House of Representatives
Washington, DC 20510 (Senators) or 20515 (Representatives)
Dear Senator/Representative ________________:
I am writing regarding the Patients Bill of Rights, which is currently being reviewed in conference committee. In particular, I support the strong consumer protections offered in H.R. 2723. I urge you to support those protections, and to convey your support to members of the conference committee.
[Insert personal story here. If you or someone you care about would be affected by this legislation, discuss that here. You might want to talk about any difficulties you or others may have had with managed care plans that demonstrate the need for such legislation. This would also be a good place to discuss why these protections are particularly important for people living with HIV/AIDS]
The Senate version, S. 1344, does not provide adequate protections, nor does it cover enough people who are insured through managed care plans. I urge you to reject this bill and support meaningful managed care reform. Again, please support the provisions included in H.R. 2723.
Thank you for your consideration.

August 25th, 2010
Although no one at Aid For AIDS Nevada has responded to (or even acknowledged receiving) my letter, they have finally responded to Dr. Warren Throckmorton in regards to their chumminess with Canyon Ridge Christian Church:
After evaluating Canyon Ridge Christian Church's backing of Pastor Ssempa of Uganda and his support of the Anti-Homosexuality Bill, we feel that it is in the best interest of our clients, supporters and staff to dissolve our relationship with the church immediately. Unfortunately, we will be unable to continue to work with the church, as long as they are associated with Pastor Ssempa. Since what he and the Anti-Homosexuality Bill represent violates the basic human rights that should be afforded to all Ugandans. Our mission is to provide client service programs that assist in enhancing the physical health and psychosocial wellness of the individuals living with and affected by HIV/AIDS in southern Nevada, while promoting dignity and improving the quality of their lives. We will further this mission without the support of Canyon Ridge Christian Church.
AFAN arrogantly dismisses concerns about CRCC
Timothy Kincaid
August 24th, 2010
There is nothing like public criticism to encourage a response. And after Change.org and the Red Ribbon Army and a number of others began to increase a call for explanation, Aid For AIDS Nevada has finally given the weakest of responses to Dr. Throckmorton for why they have not severed ties with Canyon Ridge Christian Church.
We do not partner with Canyon Ridge. In fact, we are simply a recipient of their donations in support of our lifesaving, essential programming for individuals surviving HIV/AIDS…we are not able to cease a partnership that does not exist.
Which still does not answer my questions: "please let me know whether you will continue to allow CRCC to participate in your organization and to display their organization's name" and just why have you not responded to expressed concerns. And, especially, why have you deleted comments on your Facebook page from now half a dozen or so different activists who simply want answers.
The Red Ribbon Army is wondering something even more basic: "why Aid for AIDS of Nevada is unwilling to condemn Uganda's Anti-Homosexuality Bill." You'd think that would be a no-brainer.
But maybe AFAN doesn't really care what you think; they don't really need to. Two-thirds of their funding is from governmental sources and only about 17% of their annual budget comes from the AIDS Walk – and the majority of that is from corporate sponsors.

As Californians were losing their jobs, homes and life savings between November 2006 and December 2008, energy traders at Britain's second-largest bank were allegedly having a jolly good time jacking up their light bills.
Barclays PLC — which has already been fined after admitting its role in manipulating global interest rates — was manipulating electric bills too, according the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The agency on Tuesday ordered the bank and four of its former traders to pay a $435 million fine and pay $34.9 million, plus interest, to energy assistance programs for low-income families in Arizona, California, Oregon and Washington.
"The scheme affected the ultimate retail price paid by tens of millions of consumers in California and elsewhere in the western United States," the regulator said.
Barclays plans to fight the order in federal court.
"We believe the penalty assessed by the FERC is without basis, and we strongly disagree with the allegations made by FERC against Barclays and its former traders," Barclays spokesman Marc Hazelton wrote in an e-mail. "We intend to vigorously defend this matter."
Robert Diamond resigned last year as CEO of Barclays, as the bank was hit by a tsunami of scandals — from alleged bribes paid to Qatar's sovereign wealth fund to the mis-selling of payment protection insurance to borrowers. The biggest hit to Barclays reputation came when it paid a $450 million fine after admitting its traders manipulated a benchmark interest rate known as Libor — the London Interbank Offered Rate — which affects rates on all kinds of loans around the globe, including some consumer loans and home mortgages. U.S. and U.K. authorities are reportedly planning criminal charges against Barclays traders involved in that scheme.
A new CEO, Anthony Jenkins, has pledged to turn Barclays's reputation around.
In January he sent a memo to employees telling any ne'er-do-wells that might still be among his ranks to quit. "My message to those people is simple: Barclays is not the place for you. The rules have changed. You won't feel comfortable at Barclays and, to be frank, we won't feel comfortable with you as colleagues."
Fighting FERC will only make his war on miscreants more difficult as his bank defends former traders who've been ordered to pay big fines.
Maybe Barclays should pay up and be done with it. Yes, the allegations reek of Enron — whose traders famously bragged about ripping off California grandmothers and laughed about causing rolling blackouts — but Barclays is not the only big bank accused of manipulating energy markets.
FERC extracted a $1.7 million fine from a Deutsche Bank AG subsidiary earlier this year. The bank neither admitted nor denied guilt. FERC is also chasing J.P. Morgan & Chase Co. with similar allegations.
It's just one of those wacky things energy traders on big trading desks sometimes enjoy doing — even if they don't enjoy admitting it.
A few days after FERC told Barclays it was under investigation, in 2007, a newsletter called "The Friday Burrito," took note of some unusual trading patterns. "What the hell is going on out there? ... The worst thing possible would be one party trying to move the financial markets with large physical positions."
The newsletter is distributed by a staff member of the Western Power Trading Forum and has some influence among energy buyers such as utility companies. One of Barclays's traders sent in an e-mail offering what FERC says was a false explanation for the pattern: "Embrace the change," the e-mail said, "as opposed to being afraid of it."
Yes, what we're all afraid of is change, especially if that change involves getting screwed.
One Barclays trader bragged in an instant message that he "totally f---ed with the Palo mrkt today."
FERC's order against Barclays also details other colorful e-mails and instant messages traders sent each other while allegedly making trades designed to manipulate markets.
One said: "Gonna try to crap on the NP light and it should drive the SP light lower."
Another advised: "(i)f you can sell a bunch of index that would be good to keep the price up."
Another said: "keep the PV index up and the SP daily index down"
Another said: "your boy started crying this morning(.) (H)e sent me an (ICE) message-said he was calling ferc....lol."
Another said: "you going to have fun with the index all month?"
Barclays denies these messages are evidence of market manipulation: "(G)iven the amount of banter and boasting that routinely goes on among traders, especially in instant messages, it is not possible to determine whether any wrongdoing has occurred simply by reading an IM," the bank told FERC.
"The Order Assessing Civil Penalty is by its very nature a one-sided document, and does not reflect a balanced and full description of the facts or the applicable legal standard," Hazelton said in his e-mail.
The 85-page order document is not all that one-sided, though. It presents FERC's allegations, and Barclays's answers to them. Barclays just doesn't like FERC's interpretations of words like, "having fun with the index."
Barclays characterized its former traders' messages as "sarcastic or facetious," "ironic," "bragging," and "playful banter." The traders, it suggested, were just "joking."
They weren't trying to manipulate western energy markets. They were trying to become comedians. Real funny. Especially as the global economy was just beginning to collapse.

TRANSPORTATION TUESDAY: The 2010 Prius Revealed
Posted By Jorge Chapa On October 21, 2008 @ 3:31 pm In Green Transportation,Innovation | 2 Comments
Recently several [2] auto sites [3] revealed a first glimpse of the eagerly anticipated 2010 Prius! Currently scheduled for official unveiling in January at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit [4], the revamped model features a similar body shape with a redesigned front, more interior room, and better fuel economy.
Toyota [5]'s Open Road Blog [6] confirmed the veracity of the pics shortly after they surfaced, stating that "This new Prius will retain all of the virtues of the model that precedes it." From what we can see the vehicle shares many similarities with its predecessor, and we will have to wait till January to hear what's under the hood. For the present you can check out our earlier post about the rumours of a solar powered prius [7] if you'd like to dream a bit.

And she refused to change clothes with bella which could have, but didn't because esme changed clothes, led to her death had James picked up the scent. She is just horrible and spiteful to Bella and the other Cullens. And when is the only item she helps bella? When bella has a baby, and she wants bella to die. None of the others whine about not being able to have babies, but she does constantly and how spiteful and disgusting is it to let someone die for a baby? Also she hated the life as a vampire but she was enough of a b**** to askCarlisle to change emmet. She has her good qualities, but from what I've seen she's stupid, vain, selfish and mean

Russell Petrick says, "You can't bully people like that. Companies aren't allowed to do that."
Russell has spent his career working with computers. He recently switched to Peak Internet, hoping to get faster service. But says he was disappointed with the results because the service wasn't as fast as he thought it would be.
He then got his money back, switched to another service, and then posted reviews online about Peak Internet.
Russell explains, "I very much believe in consumer rights and I won't be quiet about that type of thing. They've already deleted my reviews on their Facebook page because they don't want anyone to see that."
Russell believes he has a right to tell others about his experience online, but he's now being sued by Peak Internet.
The company's attorney filed this lawsuit demanding that Russell stop making, "defamatory statements." It says Russell's statements are false and have hurt the company.
I asked attorney Randy Steichen what we all need to know when posting and giving our opinions online.
Randy says, "You have to be careful that what you say is the truth because if you make statements about somebody that are not true, that damage their reputation or business, you can be held liable under the laws of defamation."
More companies are now going after those who post negative reviews. We'll let you know what happens with Russell's case.
Legal experts say the truth is an absolute defense to defamation. Just remember the Internet is a powerful forum, and it could be up to a judge or jury to decide what you can or can't say.

10g Stocking Question
Hello, I was considering getting a Dwarf or Honey Gourami and 5 Cardinal Tetras for my empty 10g. Would this be suitable, or not? I want to make sure before I decide.
I have two empty tanks, one will be a quarantine, and the other either for these fish, some other combination, or another divided Betta tank.
Thanks in advance for the help and advice.
Bump up the number of cardinals to 6 or 7 and I think your good.
What filter are you using? I would use live plants, the cardinals will lok AMAZING. With a piece of driftwood it would be SOO cool.
Okay. I was just afraid of overstocking. (:
I use Tetra whisper filters since they are in our price range and don't make too strong of a current.
In a 10 gal tank I would do either the honey gourami or the cardinals. It's not quite enough room for both together. A 10 gal is really best left as a sngle-species tank. It's also rather small and can have rapid parameter fluctions which can be hard on the cardinals as they are rather sensitive fish. If you were to choose one or the other, I would go with the honey gourami.
As thekoimaiden said the tank is a little small for both.
The cardinals are very active and they are sensitive to fluctions in temp and PH.
I would go for the dwarf or the honey.
In a 10g i would avoid the gourami, and stay with a group (5-6) of cardinal tetra. You don't mention water parameters, but assuming your source water is soft and acidic as it should be for cardinals, there are some nice "dwarf" fish that would complement them. Or substrate fish, like one of the "dwarf" cory species. Several options are in the profiles.
Maybe in stead of Cardinals you could get some Panda or Pygmy cories. They are so cute!! I think they would bew able to go with a gourami. Just an idea.

As food prices continue to increase across the U.S., people in southern Georgia have found an alternative for buying fresh produce while keeping their money in the local economy.
Farmers' markets bring locally-grown produce to shoppers -- and they're usually less expensive, too.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture says over 7,100 markets span the nation; they're stocked with produce grown by 19,000 American farmers.
Lewis Produce has been part of the Thomasville Farmer's Market for over 60 years.
Though the store has gone from open-air to air-conditioned, customers still come in for the same reasons.
Frazier Walker lives in Florida and crosses over to the Peach State just for fresh produce.
"I live just across the line in Florida, but I come up here often, once a week ... because the vegetables are nice, fresh."
Lewis Produce sells peaches, peanuts, and tomatoes from the Peach State. What they can't get from Georgia usually arrives from neighboring states.
Says frequent shopper Lindsay Leverette, "I think shopping locally is good, not that there's anything wrong with big box stores, but I shop local to support the local economy."
Her three-year-old daugher, McKie, agrees, ""I like to get fruits here."
It appears other Americans also agree with the Leverettes and Walker.
The USDA says between 2010 and 2011, farmer's markets have grown in popularity by 17 percent.

A powerful winter storm swept into the Upper Midwest on Monday bringing high winds and heavy snow from eastern South Dakota, much of Minnesota and the northern half of Wisconsin. Some areas were expected to receive between 6 and 12 inches of snow before Tuesday morning. The storm should move into southern Canada by Tuesday afternoon ending the snow. The snowfall will come on top of the record amount of snow that has fallen across much of the Midwest this winter.

The Pueblo Police Department is facing a wrongful death lawsuit, filed by the family of a man who died as police tried to arrest him.
In May 2002, police confronted Richard Barella after receiving complaints he was jumping in front of cars. Officers say they were forced to use a tazer gun, when Barella refused to cooperate.
Barella's parents believe police hog-tied their son, put weight on his back, and pepper sprayed him, all after he'd stopped breathing.
According to the autopsy report Baralla died of a heart attack. He had not evidence of drugs or alcohol in his system.
