Citi Layoffs Don't Change a Thing: Street Whispers
TheStreet) --Investors cheered Citigroup's (C - Get Report) plans to layoff about 4% of its workforce, sending shares up 6% Wednesday following the announcement. But it is hard to know what exactly shareholders are so happy about.This is a company that has already slashed a quarter of its workforce since the crisis and has gone through a major overhaul, exiting nearly 100 non-core businesses. That it still has to axe thousands of workers four years after the crisis to appease shareholders serves as a painful reminder of how difficult the operating environment remains for banks. Macroeconomic uncertainties continue to persist, while regulatory climate remains unfriendly. Citigroup is certainly still dogged by its legacy problems but the fact is the bank is already "pretty efficient" according to Nomura analyst Glenn Schorr. The bank's operating expenses as a proportion of revenues- efficiency ratio- is actually lower than that of most of its peers. Citi just did not have a "cute" name for its expense savings program unlike other banks, according to the analyst. To that end, the latest "clear communication" of its efficiency program will "help Citi get "paid" on its expense discipline going forward," Schorr wrote in a note. Doing something to prove that you are "doing something", however, smacks of desperation of a bank that has run out of ideas on how to generate returns for shareholders. Citigroup shares trade at 70% of tangible book value, which means shareholders still see the bank as a lumbering, complex, inefficient bank that is worth more broken up. New CEO Mike Corbat has so far not hinted at anything that dramatic, instead suggesting the bank will stay the course charted out by his predecessor Vikram Pandit. But the gains Wednesday probably reflect optimism that the CEO will do more. Citi may take its cue from UBS (UBS - Get Report) , for instance, which recently announced not only 10,000 job cuts but also a surprise exit from the fixed income trading business. Shares are up 13% since.NEW YORK (

About Assessment at Harold Washington College
At the City Colleges of Chicago, assessment is considered a systematic and ongoing process that collects aggregate data about what students know and can do based on measurable student learning outcomes for:
Data and information resulting from the assessment process serve to inform improvements in pedagogy, course content, the curriculum, learning resources, and student services. Because the assessment process must be faculty owned, faculty driven, and administratively supported, utilization of assessment data by faculty is designed to improve student performance, student development, and student achievement.

From "Just*in Time," Justin's column in A&U Magazine, America's AIDS Magazine.
Dear Justin,
I just found you on YouTube; I've been researching HIV a lot these past two weeks because my boyfriend just tested positive. I am scared shitless. I don't know what to do.
We've been together for almost half a year now and have always used protection. I got tested last week and it was negative. My doctor thinks I am clean because it has been about six weeks since I last saw him. I have a follow-up next month, but now I'm faced with a decision: What do I do now? I don't know how to navigate through this situation. I feel like I need to leave him but I don't know how to get out because he keeps saying that I'm only leaving because of his status. I am just scared. I have so many questions for you. If you have time please hit me back. I feel helpless and lost.
-- Gordon
First, let me say: Breathe. Everything is going to be okay. Your partner is going to need someone to talk to and you might be the one that he needs. Make sure that you are there for support of him because he is going to need it. He needs to know that you are there for him and that this is not the end of the world.
Also, to make sure that you are okay, I would get tested again three months after the last HIV test you had. Also, let me say one thing about your doctor: I do not agree with the statement, "My doctor thinks I am clean because it has been about six weeks since I last saw him." HIV is a very tricky disease. You have to get tested again because HIV can be present in the body, sometimes without being detected. The window period (the time you need to wait to get an accurate test) for HIV is generally three months. I would recommend testing again at six months if the contact was very risky.
Whether or not you stay in this relationship is up to you. You need to make a choice whether you believe he is worth staying in this relationship for. My question would be: Has he broken your trust? If yes, it is going to be hard getting it back and do not let him claim that you're leaving him because of the HIV diagnosis -- you would be leaving because he broke your trust, and, more importantly, your heart.
I'm having a hard time. I was recently hospitalized with meningitis for eight days. There, they discovered that I had herpes. I'm having such a hard time with this. It's been almost two months now. I'm so upset with myself. The doctor said it was a new infection since I tested negative four weeks before. But my current partner tested negative. So I'm guessing it's from my ex ... but he doesn't want to get tested for it. My doctor gave me pills for herpes, but says I only have to take them when I have an outbreak and he also told me the cream is ineffective. Tell me what to do?
-- Matthew
Ouchhh, meningitis! Well, let me say if the doctors didn't tell you already that your herpes infection probably went untreated and that is probably why you have meningitis. I will say that being diagnosed with herpes is hard, but it is something that is manageable. Do not be upset with yourself because it will only feed into the shame and guilt that you already feel.
You should right now focus on yourself and not your ex, but the good thing is that you've informed him. Also it sounds like you need a new doctor. Sounds like you need a second opinion. I take Valtrex once every day and I have the cream, which is effective. You also need to educate yourself more on meningitis as it is a very serious disease.

The Submarine is a sub-aquatic vehicle making its debut appearance in Grand Theft Auto V.
This submarine features a special bubble, at the front of its cabin. Outside, its body it features tube metal caging, where at the front, two lights are mounted.
- A submarine is a watercraft capable of independent operation underwater. It differs from a submersible, which has more limited underwater capability. The term submarine most commonly refers to a large crewed autonomous vessel. However, historically or colloquially, submarine can also refer to medium-sized or smaller vessels (midget submarines, wet subs), remotely operated vehicle, or autonomous underwater vehicles.

"they act like there's something wrong with nationalism."
There is, it promotes conflict.
"but it just ticks me off that they ignore the fact they many others do FAR FAR worse, and they sit back and act like its ok then"
That is very true, many anti-US people are just as defensive about their own countries. And yes there are plenty of regemes far far worse than the U.S.
"1.) if your sayin pople have no clue abut anything then that is the fact on both sides U.S. and it's haters the majority of both have no clue"
It is true on both sides... to an extent. Non-US people often know about events that show the U.S. in poor light, but not about events that show their own country up.
However as I said the US is the most powerfull country in the world as such it has a lot of focus on it. The reaction that comes back is often one that seems to say "Hey we've never done anything wrong, America is GREAT, etc. etc." which doesn't exactly help the problem.
"2.) maybe for some but not all of us, many of us are not so blind"
Perhaps, but i do think that if a person is brought up in an environment where something is treated as positive, then they find it very difficult to appraise that same subject with objectivity.
" don't have the time nor the inclination to go into a hundred post debate with people that have no clue what the hell they're talking about"
Fair enough.
"i've been in to many arguements in boards where use opinion as fact and have no clue what they are arguing about. "
Heh, I know that problem

Hot, humid,
muggy weather is uncomfortable for us, but is perfect for biological
contaminants like dust mites, fungus and
bacteria. A musty smell is a sure sign you need a dehumidifier.
Check every closet, bathroom and room for humid, enclosed areas with
poor ventilation. The laundry area is a common home for
molds. Fungus and mold colonize small areas and send out
invisible spores that continuously travel throughout the
home. A portable dehumidifier
will kill existing mold and prevent new by removing its water
source. Wash away any visible mold and aim a
small room dehumidifier to blow toward the problem
area. See below or

Importance of Portable Dehumidifiers in Controlling
Mold & Mildew in Your Home
such as fungus mold, black
mold, and slime molds are
most often found in areas that have high humidity levels such as
bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms or damp basements (especially after
flooding). It is important to try and prevent mold and mildew
growth .
Because mold and mildew release mold
spores in the air that can float throughout the house, severe allergic
reactions such as watery eyes, runny nose and sneezing, nasal
congestion and fatigue, can occur. When mold starts to reproduce inside
your home, it can eat away at the structure, causing thousands of
dollars in damage and possibly making your family sick due to mold
exposure. There are several mold cleaning, prevention, and mold removal
methods to deal with this persistent problem. One of the preventative
measures is arming yourself with small portable dehumidifier.
information on problems associated with mold growth in your home can be
found on the California
Department of Health Services Indoor Air Quality Info Sheet.

More Tips On Saving Money By Using Small or
Portable Dehumidifiers ...
Using a small dehumidifier
in your home or office environment can extend the life of your heating
and a/c units. Heating and a/c units are constantly competing
with humidity when trying to regulate
temperature, thus causing higher electricity and gas bills. A
portable dehumidifier
uses around the same amount of energy as a light bulb and can
help lower your heating and a/c bills .
Small dehumidifiers
will work most effectively and efficiently in an enclosed area with all
windows and doors closed. Your dehumidifier is designed to operate on
ordinary household 110/120 volt 60-cycle alternating current. A 15 or
20 ampere fused separate circuit, serving only this appliance is
Best Placement for Small Dehumidifiers:
When placing the dehumidifier, be sure that it is located so there is
no blockage to air flowing either into the coils at the rear
or from the front grille. For the best performance
from your dehumidifier, allow at least 12 inches of air space on the
front and back-side of the unit.
Important Questions To Answer Before Choosing a
Small Dehumidifier
What are the dimensions of the room to be
dehumidified (width, length and ceiling height)?
How many people will be in the room most of the time?
Do you have mold in this room?
Do you use air conditioning in this room?
Is the room carpeted?
Do you usually open the windows in this room?
What is the area mainly used for (ex.: storage, recreation room, home
If for storage, what types of items are stored there (rare books,
pictures, regular household out of season items, etc.)
Were you looking for dehumidifiers with a container to drain or
dehumidifiers that could drain the water via PVC tubing to another area?
Please see
various models we carry by visiting our dehumidifiers page.
If you have any
questions, call us, we'll be glad to help!

A diesel pump factory is back up and running a day after a fire broke out there.
A representative with the company contacted WITN and says that Stanadyne is back up and operational.
The official says that contractor was placing a fire suppression system on a filtration system, and that when it was being drilled into there were sparks. When the system was turned on, it caused heavy smoke.
We're told 4 people who were said to be injured only needed to use some oxygen provided by the fire department.
Officials say that their paramount concern is the safety of their employees.
Previous Story:
Officials say four people were treated following injury from a fire that sparked at a diesel pump factory in the east.
Jacksonville Fire Marshall John Reed says that the fire started at Stanadyne at 425 White Street during the installation of a fire suppression system right around 3:30 Saturday afternoon.
Reed says that contractors had turned on a filtration system and soon thereafter says that it started smoking heavily.
4 people suffered smoke inhalation and were treated and released from the scene.
It's the 11th fire to happen at that plant in the past 2 months, according to Reed.
The Jacksonville Fire Department arrived and was able to put out the flames.

I remember when SMS (Short Messaging Service) started in Europe 20 years ago. It was part of the European GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) standard. The idea was to use the data channel to send short messages (up to 160 characters) between the phones. In the beginning it was free to use, since the networks were basically owned by the big telecoms and they were focusing on the voice revenue.
Mobile phone penetration in Europe.
> 130%
< 100%
No data
Please remember that cell phone penetration in the European Union has always been much higher than in the US, and the use of one standard: GSM, makes easier to use your phone everywhere. AT&T and T-Mobile (Subsidiary of German Telecom) use the GSM standard in the US, but with different frequencies.
When the European Commission introduced new rules to get GSM licenses, including the requirement that governments should allocate more than one license per country, competition started in other services. At that time GSM was only voice and text, not internet. Some providers started to charge to send SMS, not to receive, and that is still the case in most European markets. If your cell provider tells you they can't do anything about getting unwanted text messages, they are lying, they don't want to.
But it wasn't until the arrival of prepaid phones and plans, when the teens started to use the system to communicate between them, and then a new market was created. Today texting or SMS accounts for more than 20% of the revenue of most European cell companies.
Most business people used pagers in the US until a few years ago, and some still do. The "texting" was done by paging people. The first BlackBerry device was introduced in 1999 as a two-way pager, not a phone, and they didn't have a "Smartphone" until 2002. BlackBerry first made headway in the marketplace by concentrating on e-mail, and now RIM offers push email services to other devices, including mobile phones from Nokia.
But now texting is on the rise in the US, not only for teens, but we can see that the "adults" from 18 to 27 who started texting a few years ago have not stopped doing it. Teens are the heavy users, a recent report from the Pew Research Center about texting says "Teens send and receive text messages in numbers that are orders of magnitude greater than what is sent and received by adults. The average teen (even including teens without cell phones) sends and receives five times more text messages a day than a typical adult. A teen typically sends or receives 50 text messages a day, while the average adult sends or receives 10. Fully 31% of teens send more than 100 texts a day and 15% send more than 200 a day, while just 8% and 5% of adults send that many, respectively."
In some European countries like Denmark and Sweden, with a mobile phone penetration of over 150%, texting is the most common way of communication.
I believe texting will continue to rise, and people are choosing more cell phone plans with unlimited text or hundreds of text messages included.

Barack Obama's former pastor says publicizing sound bites of sermons in which he condemned U.S. policies was "unfair" and "devious."
In a PBS interview airing Friday tonight, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright says his comments have been publicized by people who know nothing about his church.
Wright says that, as an activist, he's accustomed to being "at odds with the establishment," but the response to the sermons has been "very, very unsettling."
This is the first interview Wright has given since video of his preaching gained national attention in March and put Obama on the defensive.
The controversy forced Obama to explain his 20-year association with the minister, who's retiring from Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago.

Can anyone tell me the best strength to dilute iron of suphate in water for killing moss in a lawn please? Is 30grms per litre or water too strong or too weak?
Are there no guidelines on the packaging?
Not for using as a moss killer on a lawn.
It depends on how you wish yo apply it, in a watering can or in a calibrated knap sack sprayer. If in the later i would recommend a rate of 2 to 8 kg per hec in 300 to 600 ltrs of water per hec. Sulphate of iron will not completely kill moss, it is not translocated to the roots, it will desiccate the plant and knock it back and will slow its invasion. If i can be of any more help please mail me firstname.lastname@example.com

On The Demise Of Animal Spirits
Just one more QE-episode... growth will come in two quarters, we promise... housing has bottomed... stocks 'signal' all is well. We have heard these 'meme's a thousand times and yet still what is borrowed is given to shareholders and animal spirits (judging by the dismal confidence among small business leaders) remain mired in the quagmire of uncertainty and risk aversion. Nowhere is this more evident than the roll-over (and now falling) demand for new loans across global credit markets. This is not large public companies borrowing at ultra-rich spreads, courtesy of Bernanke's financial repression forcing supply into IG and HY markets, to merely charm pension funds with dividends; this is real demand for credit (per loan officer surveys) all turning down as the balance-sheet-recession continues.

So we topped out. We all knew it was going to happen.
Is it only me or is there a wedge slowly forming? US demand should bottom at around 15, then top out at 65 around 2020.
I don't know much about the numbers, but I do know that Ben Franklin said that it's better to go to bed hungry, than to wake up in debt.
The animal spirits are on the first class to Singapore
What do you expect when the American Dream is dead?
Blabla, it's all bullshit. Do any of the dire predictions here happen? No.
ZIRP means time value of money is ZERO.
Therefore money value of time is ZERO.
Therefore it doesn't matter if you invest today, tomorrow, next month or next year.
There is no urgency to do anything. Animal spirits are DEAD.
That´s what continous QE is about. Invest today so you don´t miss out this months fresh $85 billion.
when your expectation is for higher prices and you get instead prices collapsing...what's the problem again? http://www.dailyfinance.com/2012/11/30/mcdonalds-dollar-menu-sales-strat... "McDonalds moving back from it's premium pricing model"?!!! "more towards a value approach"??? wow, lord knows i go to McDonalds "for the premium product i so desire." maybe if they'd throw in some housing with that 69 cent cheeseburger more people would actually come...
When bankruptcies are allowed to occur prices decline, deflation. Less money available to purchase existing goods.
When central banks print money and bail out bad loans and finance bad ventures, housing, inflation occurs.
When supply decreases, companies closing, and the money supply is stable inflation occurs.
When supply remains the same but monetary expansion occurs there is inflation.
Prices are like a bee hive, they are everywhere, some up and some down. Trying to measure them is kinda stupid but economists try anyway.
Unsurprisingly, in a money-based market economy the financial industry, with the central role already mentioned, will be of special interest to rulers and their associates in the "private" sector. "Historically, state intervention in the banking system has been one of the earliest forms of intervention in the market system," Grinder and Hagel write. They emphasize how this intervention plays a key role in changing a population's tacit ideology:
In the U.S., this intervention initially involved sporadic measures, both at the federal and state level, which generated inflationary distortion in the money supply and cyclical disruptions of economic activity. The disruptions which accompanied the business cycle were a major factor in the transformation of the dominant ideology in the U.S. from a general adherence to laissez-faire doctrines to an ideology of political capitalism which viewed the state as a necessary instrument for the rationalization and stabilization of an inherently unstable economic order.
In short, financial intervention on behalf of well-heeled, well-connected groups begets recessions, depressions, and long-term unemployment, which in turn beget vulnerable working and middle classes who, ignorant of economics, are willing to accept more powerful government, which begets more intervention on behalf of the wealthy, and so on—a vicious circle indeed.
Fiat money, central banking, and deficit spending foster and reinforce plutocracy in a variety of ways. Government debt offers opportunities for speculation by insiders and gives rise to an industry founded on profitable trafficking in Treasury securities. That industry will have a profit interest in bigger government and chronic deficit spending.
Quote from:
He concludes that article above with this:
The conventional understanding of rich and poor, capitalism and socialism, is profoundly misleading. A corporatist, mixed economy institutionalizes financial privilege in ways that are overlooked in everyday political discourse—in part because of the ideological deformations created by the system itself. As Austrian-school macroeconomist Steven Horwitz put it in a lecture this year, one need not be a Marxist to see that the state is indeed the executive committee of the ruling class.
In my opinion today's ruling class = the captains of financialization aka banksters.
There's a theme developing here. Looks like we're in real Dire Straits
