Just when you thought it was over: More electionsEconomic News and Analysis—
Brian Jacobsen, Ph.D., CFA, CFP®, Chief Portfolio Strategist
- While monitoring negotiations on the fiscal cliff will be important, it is perhaps more important for global investors to monitor what's happening politically around the globe.
- The elections in Catalonia, Spain, may affect Treasury yields and European stock values, while Japan's elections may affect the value of the yen.
- In Egypt, a controversial claim to presidential power could affect oil prices and cause supply disruptions.
Living in Wisconsin, I was looking forward to going from being in a "swing state" to a "flyover state" at the end of the presidential election. However, I wasn't banking on much reprieve from politics in the markets. The U.S. faces the fiscal cliff issue, which I think will be dealt with in classic Washington fashion, by punting the problem into next year with the promise of working toward longer-term tax and spending reform. Perhaps even more important for globally oriented investors was the election in Catalonia, Spain, on November 25, an election in Japan on December 16, and Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi's judicial decree on November 22 that give him expansive new powers until a new constitution is approved.
Catalonia's elections: No definitive outcomeThe election results in Catalonia offer no additional clarity as to the direction the eurozone debt saga will take. The Catalans turned out in large numbers, putting separatist parties in the majority of the regional parliament. The separatist parties are a fractious bunch, differing in their stances on many issues, but they are united in standing for a free and separate Catalonia. Spain's prime minister, Mariano Rajoy, is part of the Popular Party, which did gain one seat in the elections. Despite this marginal increase in power, the election will make it more difficult for Prime Minister Rajoy to ask international agencies for a provisional line of credit or bailout for its banking sector.
A bailout request by the Spanish government, I think, would be a positive signal for investors. It would help provide support for the eurozone banking system, and it would likely come with terms that would ease funding costs for countries like Greece, Portugal, and Ireland. Easier funding terms would make it more likely that the governments could hit their budget targets. It would also ease the sting of the spending cuts and tax increases being imposed.
The potential market impact: The lack of definitive outcome of the election will likely keep Treasury yields low and European stock valuations cheap.
Japan's elections: The independence of the Bank of Japan at stakeIn 2009, the center-left Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) unseated the long-ruling center-right Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). On Friday, November 16, the prime minister of Japan, Yoshihiko Noda (member of the DPJ), dissolved the lower house of parliament, setting the stage for a new set of elections on December 16. Shinzo Abe, president of the LDP, has been vocal about pushing the Bank of Japan to weaken the yen to support Japanese exports. This is one reason why the yen has weakened relative to the dollar over the past few weeks.
Stripping a central bank like the Bank of Japan of its independence from political pressures is a dangerous thing. The more independent a central bank is, the less likely it is that its country will experience rapid inflation and low growth. For the past 20 years, Japan has had low inflation and low growth, but high inflation and low growth could be worse. Abe has been talking about an inflation target of around 2%, which is not high. However, once a central bank loses its independence, that 2% could easily be pushed to 4%, 12%, or even higher. There would be the constant threat that the government would address it debts by printing money instead of raising it through taxes. Short-term, higher inflation would likely be good for Japan. Longer-term, the question is whether it would stop at 2% inflation?
The potential market impact: The yen could continue to weaken, which could be good for Japanese exporters.
Egypt: A controversial claim to presidential powerNewly elected Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi took a very controversial step on Thursday, November 22, issuing a decree that gives him immunity and concentrates a lot of power in his office. He claims that this is a temporary measure, to last only until a parliament and constitution can be put in place. The market reaction suggested that investors around the world were skeptical about this claim, as the Cairo stock market dropped more than 10% on Sunday alone. The real political problem here is that Morsi is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, which is a supporter of Hamas, which is engaged in violence with Israel. Iran also supports Hamas, so this makes for a twisted and complicated situation.
The potential market impact: Oil prices will likely stay elevated, but could move dramatically, depending on the outlook for the possibility of conflict. Conflict in itself doesn't necessarily push up the price of oil, but it increases the prospect of actual supply disruptions.

CHICAGO (AP) -- Not bad for a 38th-round draft pick.
Mark Buehrle got his 18th win Tuesday night, scattering six hits
over seven innings to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 6-1 victory
over the Kansas City Royals.
With two starts left, he's got a shot at becoming the White
Sox's first 20-game winner since Jack McDowell in 1993.
''I'd like to get it,'' said Buehrle, who's become the White Sox
ace after being picked late in 1998 amateur draft.
''Twenty wins is a good goal to reach. Not many pitchers get to
20 wins in a season.''
Buehrle (18-11) has already reached one milestone, becoming the
first Chicago lefty to win 18 since 1985, when Britt Burns went
''This kid is showing everybody he is a good pitcher,'' Royals
manager Tony Pena said.
Getting some run support helps, too. Frank Thomas and Magglio
Ordonez hit back-to-back solo home runs, and Ordonez drove in
another run. Mark Johnson also homered as the White Sox pulled
within one game of .500.
Mike Sweeney's solo homer was the only offense for the Royals,
who have lost 15 of their last 20 games.
Though he's only in his second full season in the majors,
Buehrle has developed into one of the AL's best pitchers. He won 12
games in the first half, and was named to his first All-Star team.
But he's trailed off in the second half, winning just six games.
After getting victory No. 17 on Sept. 1, he lost his last two
''It's my fault if I don't get to 20 wins,'' Buehrle said.
''I've got nobody to blame but myself. I had too many chances.''
If he pitches like he did Tuesday night in his last two starts,
he might still get to 20.
Kansas City had a runner in scoring position just three times,
and he allowed only one extra-base hit besides Sweeney's homer, a
ground-rule double to Joe Randa. After Sweeney's leadoff homer in
the fourth, Buehrle retired five of his next six batters.
He gave up one run on the six hits, striking out three while
walking one. He also had a balk.
''Some pitches weren't working for me the last couple of starts.
Today, everything was working,'' Buehrle said. ''I'm not trying to
change anything knowing 20 is right around the corner.
Keith Foulke pitched two innings for his 10th save -- and first
since June 27.
''It's nice to be able to get that save. It's been a long
time,'' said Foulke, who is third on the White Sox all-time list
with 99 career saves.
Miguel Asencio (3-7) gave up two runs -- one earned -- and five
hits in five innings. He walked four while striking out only one.
''If he can get command on his pitches, he can pitch seven or
eight innings every single time,'' Pena said. ''When he got into
trouble, he did make some good pitches.''
Sweeney's homer in the fourth inning gave the Royals a 1-0 lead,
but Buehrle's teammates quickly bailed him out. After Neifi Perez's
error gave the White Sox runners at first and second, Aaron Rowand
beat out a bunt single to load the bases.
One out later, Asencio walked Johnson to force in a run.
The White Sox broke the game open with two runs each in the
seventh and eighth. With one out in the seventh, Thomas sent an 0-2
pitch from Shawn Sedlacek into the left-field stands, drawing a
standing ovation from the crowd of 12,003.
The fans were on their feet again a few seconds later as Ordonez
followed with another homer. It was his 33rd of the year, a career
Johnson homered in the eighth and Ordonez added an RBI double to
assure Buehrle of his 18th win.
''If you've got a chance to play ball, it doesn't matter where
you were drafted,'' Buehrle said. ''As long as a team gives you a
chance, just go out and do the best you can to achieve your goal of
pitching in the big leagues.''
Game notes
Kansas City C Brent Mayne was ejected in the top of the
fourth inning for arguing with plate umpire Jerry Crawford. Mayne
sprinted out of the dugout as the Royals got ready to bat and had
to be restrained by Pena. ''I didn't say anything at all. Not one
word,'' Mayne said. ''He was staring at me. He shrugged at me and I
just shrugged at him and got kicked out.'' ... Of Thomas' 25 home
runs, 21 have come at Comiskey Park. ... The White Sox haven't been
.500 since June 20. ... White Sox groundskeeper Roger Bossard
replaced 700 square yards of grass in center field after Friday
night's Rolling Stones concert.

Aaron Gordon commits to Arizona
Updated: April 2, 2013, 4:56 PM ETBy Dave Telep | RecruitingNation
CHICAGO -- Last year, the Arizona Wildcats signed three frontcourt players ranked in the top 20 of the ESPN 100.
On Tuesday, the Wildcats struck again with a potential frontcourt star when forward Aaron Gordon (San Jose, Calif./Archbishop Mitty) committed to play for Sean Miller over Kentucky, Washington and Oregon.

When it comes to barbecue, everyone's got an opinion. (Often, it seems, a deeply personal and impassioned one.) Over the years, a slew of recommendations, combined with my unfortunate inability to stop the names of all of Seattle's barbecue places from running together in my mind (Roy's, RoRo, Jones, Slo Joe's, Smokin Pete's, Pecos Pit, Pig Iron, Steel Pig), has resulted in a muddled and incomplete picture of the city's offerings. This week, Versus focuses its attention on beef brisket sandwiches at Roy's BBQ and Pecos Pit BBQ.
Pecos Pit: a hot, beautiful mess
While Roy's brisket sandwich is a masterpiece of composure, Pecos Pit's ($7.85) is a hot mess: thick, juicy slabs of fatty, fall-apart beef smothered in a puddle of a tangy barbecue sauce so spicy that I could feel its burn on my lips an hour later. (And I only ordered medium.) But it's not just the spice that sticks with you: each bite holds the full-on flavor of masterfully smoked beef. It's impossible not to notice that each slice of Pecos brisket is rimmed by a purple smoke ring at least one-eighth of an inch thick. You will need a fork for this meal, as trying to pick this sandwich up by its fire and meat juice-soaked bun is an invitation for disaster and stains.
Verdict: While Roy's brisket is done well, it's not the best sign when the thing you enjoy and remember most about a barbecue sandwich is the bun. (Though seriously, that Columbia City Bakery sesame bun is amazing.) When compared directly to Pecos Pit's boldness, beefiness, and long-lingering hot sauce, Roy's simply fails to make much of an impression. Pecos Pit for the win.
Roy's: quite composed

No Wonder JPMorgan's Dimon Opposes New Bank Rules: Today's Outrage
TheStreet) -- JPMorgan Chase's (JPM - Get Report) outsize quarterly profit should put to rest any questions why Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon is spending so much time on Capitol Hill fighting new bank rules. Dimon credited the investment banking unit for pushing JPMorgan profit above Wall Street's expectations.Meanwhile, consumer banking pretty much bombed because of big credit losses. Today's earnings suggest that JPMorgan Chase is only a good investment because it combines both investment banking and consumer banking. An argument could be made that proposed restrictions on proprietary trading could destroy that balance. What would become of the Chase and Washington Mutual operations if the bank had to make a choice between the $2.5 billion net income from investment banking and the $131 million net loss from retail services? And if such rules were in place during the financial crisis, JPMorgan might not have been allowed to bail out WaMu (a compelling argument for angry WaMu investors to support new regulations). Leaving aside the whole WaMu debate, today's JPMorgan earnings may steer the banking regulation debate to the question of whether the balancing cycles of investment banking vs retail banking are beneficial. That is, after all, the whole logic of the JPMorgan - Chase combination. Ditto for Bank of America (BAC - Get Report) -- Merrill Lynch, another union born out of the financial crisis that might not have been possible under the new bank rules being discussed. Bank of America earnings later this week will no doubt tell a similar story to JPMorgan. Maybe Citigroup (C - Get Report) offers a model for compromise with its move last year to put its Smith Barney brokerage business into a joint venture with Morgan Stanley (MS - Get Report). Perhaps megabanks can transfer control of the proprietary trading divisions without giving up all the profit? No matter how it's done, though, unwinding these banking behemoths won't be easy. And when we see results like JPMorgan delivered today, it's easy to understand why folks like Jamie Dimon wouldn't want to. Who can blame Dimon for defending his right to deliver multi-billion dollar profits. I get that -- but let's not forget that the lust for profit is what brought the global financial sector to the brink of collapse.NEW YORK (

Question Answered: Do I need any major service at 81,000 miles? I keep getting different answers
March 23, 2012, 06:18 AM
Next major service interval is at 90,000 miles. Your owners manual should have the factory recommended services listed. Some shops and dealers come up additional recommendations. Hard to say who is right or wrong. If you plan to keep your car for a long time it my opinion to err on the side of doing preventative maintence but at times I have seen unnessary things offered.
Question Answered: truck wontstart when it rains or moisture n air
March 23, 2012, 06:03 AM
Weak ignition spark can cause your problem. Older spark plug wire are the first thing to change out. A weak ignition coil can cause this too.
Question Answered: Check engine light on, need repair.
March 23, 2012, 05:54 AM
Since I run an independent shop I admit I'm bias in that respect....but its best to get recommendations from friends or coworkers where they take their cars in the area where you live. Also good idea to check a paticular shops rating at the BBB site too to see how they handle complaints when they come along.
Question Answered: How can I tell if the water pump is bad?
March 23, 2012, 05:41 AM
Sounds more like electric engine cooling fan may not be working. Movement of the car will cool radiator but when at stops it has a cooling fan that should come on when tempuature reaches a set temp. Approx 210f
Question Answered: What would make my 2005 9-3 saab not crank?

The Theft deterrant system has locked you out. You will need to take it to shop in your area that has the GM scan tool called a Tech2. It has the proper software to diagnose that system and unlock the ignition lock.
Question Answered: how much should it cost to replace my timing belt
March 22, 2012, 02:14 PM
This web site has a search engine that will give you the average cost according to the area that you live in. I have found it to be reliable....only thing it does not add the cost if the water pump should that be replaced at same time.
Question Answered: my front passanger brake keeps locking up 99 caravan
March 22, 2012, 12:26 PM
Front brake hose can cause this problem. And more likely ....see this often. What happens is inner liner of hose is weak and lets fluid go to the caliper but acts like a check valve and will not let fluid return when foot preassure is released from pedal. You cannot see what is wrong with hose .... just need to put 2 new hoses on.
Question Answered: could you tell me if my car has been recalled
March 22, 2012, 11:56 AM
Call a Mercedes dealer and ask. Have VIN # or go to this web site and search yourself: http://www.recalls.gov/nhtsa.html
Question Answered: what causes the Cadillac converter to glow red hot 1999 Malibu
March 22, 2012, 11:52 AM
The fact that your engine is missfireing can cause the Cat. to glow red due to unburned fuel entering the Cat. and ignites there. That could just be as result of several other possible faults. Been in the business for 40 years and I cannot tell you what the exact solution is. Suggest you find a good shop in your area that is famiuar with diveabilty diagnostic work.
Question Answered: I have dash lights but no mileage or shift indicator lights
March 22, 2012, 11:46 AM

Business in the Community (BITC) has launched the latest version of its public reporting guidelines on employee engagement and wellbeing, updated in partnership with the investor community for the first time.
The guidelines, which were first launched in May 2011, aim to help companies implement consistent reporting on employee engagement. Additional features also include updates on the business case for engagement and wellbeing and best practice case studies from leading organisations.
To produce the updated guidelines, the BITC sought contribution from a steering committee of global investors which recognise the direct link between good employee practices and strong business performance.
Principles for Responsible Investment-coordinated Steering Committee member Amanda Young commented: "Many investors believe that there is a direct link between good employee practices and strong business performance - motivating staff can help to ensure productivity, minimise employee action, improve margins and enhance reputations. A company reporting on employment issues can be a more attractive investment than a company with poor disclosure on how it values its employees."
BITC Workwell director Louise Aston said that results from the first benchmark showed "exciting examples of leadership".
"However, disappointingly, the results also highlighted that public reporting on this topic is still very much in its infancy, highlighted particularly on the lack of psychological health reporting," she added.
"We hope the 2014 Benchmark, which is open to all companies and launches this September, will begin to show improvements in the way companies manage their people and report on their employee engagement and wellbeing, to help create happier, healthier and ultimately more productive workforces. This is fundamental to businesses and individuals. We have seen countless examples of lives that have been enriched and enhanced by employers creating the conditions for their people to flourish."
The next BITC Workwell benchmark will be launched in September, which includes a questionnaire providing 25 indicators for best practice employee engagement and wellbeing. It measures people management of all FTSE 100 organisations but is open to all organisations of any size.

Commission postpones call for reassessment of redfish, trout regs
LDWF officials say it could take months to reassess daily Southwest trout creel, statewide redfish minimum size length
June 05, 2014 at 10:08 am | Mobile Reader | Print
The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission today punted an expected request that the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries begin assessing the impacts of lowering the daily creel limit on trout caught in the Calcasieu Lake region and lowering the statewide minimum size limit on redfish.
Commissioners decided to wait until the July meeting to officially direct the agency to begin making the request, but LDWF's Randy Pausina said that biologically, reducing the minimum size limit for redfish and lowering the daily creel for speckled trout in Southwest Louisiana would have no impact on the fisheries.
Commissioner Will Drost, who was not present at today's meeting, has been discussing the trout changes with Pausina, and commission member Ann Taylor (who works for Louisiana Sportsman) has asked about reducing minimum size limits for redfish on a statewide basis.
Pausina told commissioners that his staff already was working on a trout assessment due to the state Legislature in the spring of 2015, but reassessing redfish populations and the potential impacts of lowering the minimum size limit would require more time.
However, he said his agency could provide a matrix commissioners could use to determine expected results of various regulations changes within "a couple of months, once we get started on it" for trout and within four months of beginning a redfish evaluation.
"It wll allow you to move a size limit or bag limit, and it will tell you how it will affect (spawn potential ratio) for trout, and for red drum it would be escapement rate," Pausina said.

Wall Street, Charging Bull, 9-11 Museum
The Financial District (FiDi), at the southern tip of NYC, was the original settling point of New Yorkers in the 1600s, when the island of Manhattan was purchased by the Dutch from the Indians for 60 guilders (about $24). It is one of NYC's most bustling business and tourist areas, from Monday to Friday only. It is near dead on the weekends. In recent years, the construction of modern high rise buildings have started attracting more residents and new New Yorkers.

Carneros Chardonnay
The 2013 Carneros Chardonnay is pale gold in color, with striking aromas of lemon, green apple, melon and linseed oil. The palate is bright and spicy, with lime, papaya and baked apple joined by hints of coriander and starfruit. A beam of a fresh acidity carries through the finish, as tropical flavors linger on the palate.
Russian River Reserve Pinot Noir
The 2012 vintage marks the fourth release of our Russian River Valley Reserve Pinot Noir. This wine is bright ruby in color, with huge aromas of blackberry, espresso, and black cherry. Intense and full-bodied on the palate, the blackberry flavors lean almost toward pie filling, and there is cassis, yet bright acidity yields cherry and cranberry flavors as well. Firm tannin holds everything together, and rich fruit flavors go on and on through the finish.
Carneros Pinot Noir
The Donum Ranch covers the slopes of three hills in the Carneros region just north of San Pablo Bay. Nestled amid these hills is a 50-acre vineyard, planted to a diverse collection of Dijon clones and heirloom selections of Pinot Noir. Our Carneros Estate Grown Pinot Noir not only comes from the best blocks in our vineyard - our grand cru sites - but also is a selection of the most appealing barrels within each lot.
West Slope Carneros Pinot Noir
West Slope comes from the middle portion of our west-sloping vineyard block, a 5.5 acre site at the Donum Ranch. Beginning in 2007, as the vines developed further depth and complexity with age, this block seemed to cry out to be bottled as a stand-alone, and the West Slope bottling was born. The West Slope truly represent the culmination of our search for the top Pinot Noir terroirs in Carneros.
Anderson Valley Pinot Noir
2012 marks the second release of this wine from the Angel Camp vineyard in the "deep end" of the Anderson Valley, where ocean fog keeps temperatures much cool much of the summer. The vineyard is planted to seven different clones of Pinot Noir planted in volcanic, sandy soil about 500 feet about sea level on a knoll with several different aspects. The Anderson Valley bottling represents a barrel-selected blend from all of these blocks.
Donum means "gift of the land." We produce only single-vineyard, estate wines from vineyards in Carneros, Russian River Valley and Anderson Valley. Three of our Pinots - Carneros, Russian River Valley and Anderson Valley - carry appellations names while the others come from our most prized sites or are a small barrel selection. An estate Carneros Chardonnay completes our Burgundian portfolio.

New guy from Maryland
I just got my first used Wrangler about 2 months ago 2003, loving it.
I've also got some questions about certain things, which forum should I use? Main reason is I think the model on my title isn't right, says its a TK....
Hey NewGuy. Welcome to the forum. It's a TJ. Has those fun round headlights, right? :D
Welcome to the forum.
There's a whole other thread to itself!:D
Welcome to WF!
I did the headlight conversion on my TJ. I just call it a YJ to keep from confusing people.
oh, you lie.
Don't listen to them MDJeeper, wear those round headlights proudly.
Welcome aboard mdjeeper. 03 = TJ.
Welcome to WF, MDJeeper. :D
Welcome to WF! I am recent transplant from Md, what area are you in? Might be able to give you some good leads.
I'm in Odenton, MD. South of Baltimore.
Small world. I was born in Aberdeen (about 50 miles NE) at the real Proving Grounds, the US Army Proving Grounds, home of the Ordinance Corps.
Small world. I was born in Aberdeen (about 50 miles NE) at the real Proving Grounds, the US Army Proving Grounds, home of the Ordinance Corps.
Welcome mdjeeper!
Your "TK" on your title is Marylands' classification for Truck. When I lived in MD, that is the way my Jeep was listed. I believe your TJ is classified as a 1/4 ton truck. I have never seen YJ, TJ, XJ or CJ on an actual MD Title... usually just Jeep and TK.
There are a lot of Jeep and 4x4 clubs in your area. MD Jeep Club, Baltimore 4 wheelers, MD Creepers, and the list goes on! They all have active web forums too. Check them out and you'll find some local connections!:D
welcome to the board
Welcome, mdjeeper, to the best Wrangler forum in the world today. I'm located in Garrett County in the far western panhandle of MD around Deep Creek Lake. We have tremendous off-road possibilities up here in the mountains. If you want to come up sometime, drop us a line. Again, welcome!

The New Zealand native, best known for his role of Murray Hewitt in 'Flight of the Concords,' is creator, writer, and actor on this project set in his home country.
The eight-episode comic series follows a journalist by the name of David Farrier through a small New Zealand town as he meets some particularly odd and compelling figures. In channeling Tatiana Maslany I suppose, Darby will play every single one of these bizarre townspeople. They are described as both "hilarious" and "quirky."
This is the first foray from Darby into writing and starring in his own work.
In typical Netflix fashion, all the episodes of 'Short Poppies' will drop at once on April 3.
The 39-year-old rose to fame internationally for his work on 'Concords,' which ran for two seasons on HBO, portraying an ineffectual band manager.
You can see below a short clip featuring a very funny and awkward exchange between one of Darby's characters, a life guard and leg model named Terry, and an insurance agent played by Stephen Merchant.
Netflix continues to grow their catalog and expand content. Just yesterday they announced an original comedy 'Grace & Frankie' coming in 2015 starring Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda.
Sachyn, your photo has been removed. Thank you.

Dave Chappelle talks about his infamous moment during Zo's Summer Grove
Discusses what happened and why he came back to perform the next night
In his first interview in quite some time - and certainly his first since he appeared at Alonzo Mourning's charity event, Zo's Summer Groove - comedian Dave Chappelle explained his side of the story when he was heckled at Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock in late July.
Chappelle said the front row of the comedy show was full of "Seminole Indians" who started heckling him, and that the security there "didn't want to tell them to be quiet."
"Imagine trying to talk to someone and they are talking while you are talking and they are holding a camera in your face," Chappelle said.
But he later told the radio hosts at San Francisco's WILD 94.9 FM that he came back the next night for the Gala Concert, which featured Cee-Lo Green and Alicia Keys. "It was a charity show and I didn't want to put a stink vibe on a charity event," he said. "The next night was a good show."
On Friday, July 22, Chappelle strayed from his material at Zo's Comedy Jam - part of the Zo's Summer Groove charity event - when a couple of audience members started making disparaging comments.
"He [Chappelle] allowed the audience to dictate the stand up," Andrew Barnett, 29, was quoted in The Miami Herald. "He acknowledged them, which created a problem."
Barnett cites Chappelle's long absence from stand-up comedy as a potential reason why the comedian may have been deterred by the hecklers.
"Instead of jumping into the routine, he was responding to people," he said.
What also sidetracked Chappelle were some audience members taping the skit on their camera phones. The comedian asked them to stop, which resulted in more of the audience making comments.
"It wasn't that he was bombing for not having material," Barnett said. "He wanted to get into his routine."
Several minutes later - with no jokes told by Chappelle - he left the stage, encouraged by Miami's DJ Irie, who began spinning music indicating it was time for the comic to close.
"All right, ladies and gentlemen, it's been a real experience. In closing, I am glad to be here. I'm glad Alonzo Mourning has this charity.''
In 2005, Chappelle abruptly disappeared from his widely popular Comedy Central show and ventured to South Africa. While there, it was rumored that the comedian checked into a mental health facility, according to a 2005 Access Hollywood article.
A year earlier in 2004, Chappelle walked off stage for nearly two minutes during a performance at the Sacramento Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento, Ca.
What riled Chappelle during that appearance was audience members who wouldn't "shut up and listen," according to the Sacremento Bee.

Hello Again!
just WAVESPACE synthesis, into a "C++ sound" arranger
WAVESPACE "SPACE ROOT" - DSP DEMO (RT "Multicore" Software Synth)
RhysPaulHovey 2700043C4R Tags:  damsin wavespace engineering real time dsp multithread music multicore soundtrack machine 5,433 Views
Hello Again!
A latest in a series of DEMONstrations, of Mathematical Powers!!
with real time WAVESPACE synthesis!
Yip folks,.
osc_fn(t) = wavespace_f[n](x,y,z,t)
Yes, DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE, actually goes "beyond
just WAVESPACE synthesis, into a "C++ sound" arranger
paradigm, as well, the so called "Sound Model"
which is basically a C++ routine that generates samples!!
(It's modular)
I'll never be the same!
(try it in "inn[er]" ear-buds for an extra "blast" from the FUTURE!!)
A Sirius PR(*)BLEM!!
WAVESPACE synthesis for AUDIO (RAY GUN, and MOOG audio)
RhysPaulHovey 2700043C4R Tags:  gun wavespace dsp ray trademark audio weta osc sauron reagun moog 1,830 Views
Yip, the blog topic here for me at IBM has been for sometime now my audio DSP
efforts, namely the WAVESPACE synthesizer, and DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE.
Rhysently I have been very "flattered" to see that MOOG, the legendary pioneers
of the voltage controlled synthesizer, have abandoned a trademark(tm)
for a soft synthesizer called WAVESPACE.
Is Wavespace REAL?
Yes, wavespace is "built into" DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE, and is very real.
At somepoint I plan to DETACH "wavespace" from DAMSIN into a stand alone SYNTH.
Is wavespace just a gimmik?
No! wavespace really does extract oscillator functions from 4D "spaces", in real time, spaces
that are similar to NON-HOMOMORPHIC MANIFOLDS. Its as crazzy as it sounds
it's like the "next step" beyond wave-tables.
osc_funktion(t_osc) = wavespace_f[n](x,y,z,t_space)
* wavespace generator function can be modulated in real time! (wave gen algorithm sequencer)
* setting t to "near zero" creates a stable oscillator shape with (x,y,z) as morph "trajectories"
* homogenous wavespace format gives 5 modulation destinations per oscilator !!
* every point in space is a new osc shape
* every "path" through the space a new "wavetable"
* Near "waves" in space create NEAR WAVES in sound!! very very imporant
* TRUE stereo usage, via "parameter" offsets creates "new stereo information" !!
Very real, very cool, very useful !!

So why is this cool!!?? Well if your into DSP or audio production, or just LOVE electronic music, you'll be able to hear the
high quality sound of real time "wavegeneration" synthesis, over conventional wavetable or granular
syntheiszers, thanks to a pure C++ design, and some modern multicore CPU's in action!!

WAVESPACE! complex 4D wavespace audio synthesizer ARP DEMO ("SUGAR GO ROUND")
RhysPaulHovey 2700043C4R Tags:  math cell space syntheizer audio. real time chip 4d dsp spu 2,556 Views
Complex 4D wavespace audio synthesizer
Designed and Engineered by Rhys Paul Hovey (C) 2012
Here is the latest "ARP" aprgegiator demo from WAVESPACE / DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE.
The question is why is this arpegiator any better than other "boring" ARPs? The answer is simple!!
Waves were generated as continuous "position" functions in time domain (no -need- for ENVS on arp)
ARP pattern is "time"coheriant in wavespace time (ARP pattern continues in ws time, regarless of note frequency)
Unleash that Carnie with CLASS!
High performance computing and audio synthesis!!
Straight from "DAMSIN / WAVESPACE" digital capture buffer, with no additional mastering or FX !!
WAVESPACE (complex 4D wavespace math synthesizer) mp3 DEMOS
(under construction)
Engineered by Rhys Paul Hovey 2012
Wavespace is the TERRAfyingly exiciting evolution of "DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE's" complex wave geneneration synthesis conecept!! Wavespace is a more general synthesis archetecture / method, namely the "wavespace" engine, featured in the new and up coming versions of DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE and SYNTH video game.
Wavespace is the answer to all the lamness in standard voice based synthesizers!!
** Will be featured in (SYNTH mini v1.7) coming soon (now newly compresses to under 4 megabytes!! contains a pure 99% wavespace/damsin based soundtrack. Gernates a DVD worth of audio and graphics!!)
SO how is DAMSIN any different from WAVESPACE ?
Simple, Damsin is a mini "grove studio" with the wavespave synthesis engine "built in". Eventually DAMSIN will have the ACTUAL wavespace synthesizer built in, with a complete patch editor. It will be able to play DAMSIN events, SAMPLES, and WAVESPACE patches per event, stored in the sepparate wavespace banks.
So what is WAVESPACE ??
EVERY "wavespace" generator has the following "continuous" and "homogenous" wavespace generator format:
oscilator_wave = Wavespace_f(n)(x0,y0,z0,t0)
{ x0,y0,z0 }=[-1,1] , t=[0,..inf]
and the WAVESPACE f(n) it'self can be "modulated". (Interpolated)
What does this mean?? it's means a LOT LOT!! Having a 4 dimension space, is like having a "4D wavetable" in which any of the "waves" has at least "4" directions out of it, and into "ultra closely" (like 0.00001 deltas for example) correlateed (smoothly) waves ALL exist for REAL! With wavetable storage area would be TERRABYTES or MORE!!
Do your "orbits" and other complex modulation functions into the "x0,y0,z0" modulation destinations, and "control time" down to single cycle waves, with scalling, and offsets "t" space.
See you later boring physical models!!
See you later phasey granular crapola!!
Real time wavespace computation syntheis!!
Ultra "lightweight memory footprint" via "real time generation".
perfect "tranposition" and automatic/adustable "scaling" of harmonic change over different pitches. (sounds sound "the same" when pitched up or down, because they are based on "time" through the space, that is independent from cycle wave timings)
* The FUTURE OF SYNTHESIS!! *
Know the difference!
Hear the difference!
See you later filters!! (NOT!! hehe, but "kind of" )
High resolution pure 32 bit floating point math!! (new)
Over 20 ULTRA high quality 4D wavespace algorithms, complete with time scaling, time offset, and 3 floating point continuous"abstract" modulation destinations / dimension. Yip,. "modulation dimension".
Almost NO oscillators have 4 funktioning "real" parameters!!
Many more algorithms in progress!! (trust this one!)
DAMSIN MUSIC MACHINE "patch programs" contain up to 6 Wavespace oscillators per voice track, complete with "stereo" time offset,. meaning ACUTAL "different waveforms" will be generated in stereo voices,. with adjustable "time offsets" and scaling.
What Else?
All the typical STUFF!!
Very High Quality Analog Modeled IIR Filters.
In addition to real time models, wavespace has over 150 MB of precomputed waves for optimization purposes.
So trust me, this is COOL!
We can finally handle this kind of thing in REAL TIME!
and writing "COOL WAVESPACE" generators in not exatly "trivial".

In the village, the only source of income for Astghik's family is from farming and agriculture. Astghik has five cows on her farm, and on her plot of land she cultivates potatoes. Her husband's parents help her a little, but they are already old and unhealthy, so mainly she manages everything about the farm alone. She sells her farm milk and macun (Armenian national dairy product) to the village people.
In order for get ready for spring sowing activities and to buy new type of potato seedlings and some fertilizer, Astghik asks a loan of 200,000 Armenian drams.
Beforehand, she thanks Kiva for the support, which will be of great use for her farm.

Conditional Approval for Aratana's AT-005 - Analyst Blog
Aratana Therapeutics, Inc. ( PETX ) received encouraging news as its canine-specific monoclonal antibody, AT-005, gained conditional approval from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), to aid the treatment of T-cell lymphoma in dogs. Aratana shares rose on the news.
We note that conditionally approved products have a reasonable expectation of efficacy. The conditional license for AT-005 will expire 2 years from the date of issue.
We remind investors that Aratana acquired Vet Therapeutics in Oct 2013. With the acquisition of Vet Therapeutics, two canine monoclonal antibodies entered Aratana's pipeline - AT-004 (to aid the treatment of B-cell lymphoma in dogs) and AT-005 (to aid the treatment of T-cell lymphoma in dogs).
AT-004 gained conditional approval license from the USDA in Nov 2012 and is expected to receive a full license in the next 12-18 months. AT-004 is licensed to Novartis ' ( NVS ) arm, Novartis Animal Health Inc., for commercialization in U.S. and Canada.
Aratana is running additional studies to support the safety and efficacy of AT-005. For AT-005 the full product license is expected in 2015.
AT-005 will be Aratana's first internal opportunity to commercialize a canine lymphoma monoclonal antibody. Gaining conditional approval is a major milestone for Aratana as it is expected to finally commercialize its very first product this year.
Aratana, a biopharmaceutical company, has in-licensed three compounds, namely, AT-001 (pain in dogs and cats), AT-002 (inappetence in dogs and cats) and AT-003 (post-surgical pain in dogs and cats) since 2010.
We are encouraged by the company's progress with its pipeline so far. We expect investor focus to remain on Aratana's pipeline going forward.
Aratana carries a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell). Some better-ranked players in the pharma industry include Actelion Ltd. ( ALIOF ) and Forest Laboratories Inc. ( FRX ). Both the stocks carry a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).

While there are many companies on the market offering various treatment and disposal methods, the necessary legislation and regulations are unfortunately not always adhered to.Apart from detrimental environmental risks associated with the incorrect treatment and disposal of HCRW, South Africans' health is at risk as a result of illegal dumping. This waste poses a risk to our society at large. Phillup Love, Managing Director of South African based DCRR Process (Pty) Ltd says, "Although most health care facilities have established some form of HCRW management system, the constant findings of illegal disposal suggests there is a general lack of awareness and limited training in the various roles and functions required for responsible HCRW management.Solutions for problems "We have been managing hazardous waste locally and internationally for both government and the private waste sector for the past 24 years. Most recently we have been approached by the Croatian government to treat hazardous and toxic waste sites using our patented process of Dispersion by Chemical Reaction (DCR). "Scientifically, this process means that the alkali earth metal oxide hydration reaction is managed in such a manner as to efficiently take advantage of reactions and interactions in the stabilisation of organic wastes. The by-product of the process is deemed to be inert material and can be used to fill roads or alternative landfill applications - with no risk of leaching. "We thrive on providing solutions for environmental problems, particularly those associated with complex waste sites; our processes encompasses organic, inorganic, nuclear and de-halogenation remediation applications" explains Love. The DEA is tasked with, among others, the need to constantly update regulations governing HCRW management, addressing issues such as separation of waste at source, and the establishment of compliant and economically sustainable treatment facilities.System of embodiment In order for a comprehensive health care waste management system to be effectively implemented, it is important that the basic requirements of the system are embodied in legislation, to establish a solid framework. "We are working closely with government to ensure that we comply with their regulations to ensure a safe, secure environmental haven. We are able to assist clients from the initial design phase through to final stages, including treatability testing; project design on waste sites; hazardous waste project management and facilities decontamination. DCR Process also assists companies with policies, thereby ensuring the full compliance of either international or South African legislation in relation to hazardous, medical and toxic waste. "We are currently running several hazardous, toxic and industrial waste projects, including the use of medical incinerators, which are all compliant with government legislation and regulations, and issue safe disposal certificates- on all hazardous, toxic and medical waste that has been successfully treated. "At the end of the day it is all about education and training and getting the industry working together; I think forums such as the Institute of Waste Management of Southern Africa (IWMSA)'s Health Care Waste Forum Summit (HCWFS) is a step in the right direction to get industry and government aligned for a sustainable future," concludes Love.

If it's the military's fault (which it doesn't sound like it is) than your hubby will get the money back by going through finance. He may owe some money back, or was overpaid at one point. Has NEVER happened to us.

It's happened to us before, turned out that we were over paid and the "error" was correct. Have him go into finance, they will be able to see why it was short and let you know. But if it is the AF fault then good luck seein that money back. Takes em FOREVER to back pay ya when they make a mistake but if you owe them money, they take it back before you can even blink. We had quite a bit of back pay that we were owed, went into finance about it SEVERAL times, and still never saw it.
